Punkt. MP02 Mobile Phone - Instruction manual
Updating the operating system
48
The MP02 uses a system called OTA
(“Over The Air”) for ascertaining
whether its operating system is up to date
and for downloading newer versions.
The procedure requires access to an
external Wi-Fi network. (This has
nothing to do with the MP02’s ability to
provide Internet access to a second
device via a 4G service and its own Wi-Fi
tethering feature.)
If possible, avoid public Wi-Fi services. As
well as potential security vulnerabilities,
these services often require the user to
log in on-screen (e.g. register, agree to
terms & conditions of use, etc.) and this
is not possible with the MP02. Other
technical difficulties can arise as well.
⏤ Preparation
• Ensure that the MP02 has at least 30%
battery charge.
• If using a public Wi-Fi service, check
that it is possible to access it directly
without any kind of on-screen activity.
• If phone passcode or SIM PIN
protection is activated (see p 20),
ensure that the correct passcode is
available.
⏤ Connecting to the Wi-Fi network
• From the Main menu, select Settings,
then Connectivity, then Wi-Fi.
• Select Turn on.
• Choose the relevant Wi-Fi network
from the list available and press the
key. Alternatively, manually add a new
network to the list.
• Use the keypad to enter the correct
Wi-Fi password and press the key.
• The MP02 should now indicate that it
is connected, with signal strength
shown.
⏤ Checking for updated software
• From the Main menu, select Settings,
then About, then Firmware.
• Select Check for updates. (Look out for
a message that may briefly appear, if
there is a problem with the Wi-Fi
connection.)
• If the MP02 reports that new software
is available, to install it select Yes and
then press the key to confirm.
• The MP02 will now start downloading
and installing the new software. This
process may take several minutes.
• Important: the MP02 may appear to be
switched off – do not try to switch it
on at any time. However, if the Wi-Fi is
unsuitable, the MP02 may simply
continue to display the message
“Downloading” without anything
actually happening. If this message is
displayed for 30+ minutes, switch the
MP02 off and then back on again.
Make another attempt with a different
Wi-Fi connection, preferably a private
office or home.
• When the installation process is
finished, the MP02 will automatically
restart.
• If the passcode feature has previously
been activated, it will need to be
entered as part of the phone’s
restarting process. The same applies
for the SIM PIN.
⏤ Disconnecting from the Wi-Fi
network
If there is no new software available, or it
is not a convenient time to download and
install it, end the Wi-Fi connection by
returning to the Wi-Fi menu (see above)
and selecting Turn off.
