I'm trying to understand how users will upgrade their firmware without losing their application data.
I'm assuming that system.img and userdata.img will be replaced during a firmware upgrade (both files are generated when building the Android source code--among others). My understanding is that system.img is r/ o, so no user data would be lost, however userdata.img is r/w, and contains any application data the user may have saved. Simply overwriting this file with a newer release would destroy all the user's application data (right?) I've RTFM and STFW for details on how this is supposed to work. I'm only finding adb commands and other hacker-level instructions. Thanks in advance. -Mr. INTJ --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Beginners" group.
