i dun understand what bugs that ap contained.
the mozt is that you can update you phone firmware locally/d.i.y

but the update is really a hassle
wipe out everything and everything set to default.

unless it has a debilitating flaw that really requiress updating

even then any bug does not affect AP specifically
more on the whole batch

OTA-over the air
i have never able to really update the firmware OTA style...
the most is informing me that i have the latest firmware

PC-USB
just the other day, updated my w595...
took less than 30 mins
quite easy actually
the on-screen instruction is simple and effective

only the aftermath...all data is lost, alarms, mods, everything on the phone is wipe clean
and revert back to new phone status
even the call timer is set back to 0
