How to prepare for the update to Gingerbread

What should I do to prepare for the Over The Air (OTA) update?
I will have my battery charged to 101%.
I will backup my Contacts no matter what.  It took me to long to get then straightened out!
I will backup my Photos and Videos???
I will backup my Music?
NOW HERE ARE SOME QUESTIONS.
Will all the APPs that I have installed from The Market be deleted???
What else should I backup before the update???
Is there anything else I should do before the backup???
Thanks folks,
JerryF

If you want to do a refresh for the os update by Factory reset. Then.
1. Make sure you know all your passwords to any app services. game services, music services ect.
2. SD is unaffected, most apps should be installed there anyway. IF developers did it right, all that is needed is a app redownload and a small file restore to games ect. THe gamedata, main files should already be on the SD. Very helpful for large games like order and Chaos online which is a very large MMO RPG. Instead of downloadign over a gig of data, it will patch 108mb, and check exsisting files only.
3. Backup contacts to verizon if you want, that is good for switching to any phone such as a non android phone. OR emergency back-up. COntacts backup to SD will only contain the name and number.
4. Programs or data that are installed on the main storage and not SD can be backed up with Backup pro or a similiar app. Then restored as it was with any related data.
5. Android has smart updating when it is OTA or from SD. Because it maintains file structures, it doesn't need to alter other exsisting stuff while it overwrites the OS kernal, Radio data, ect...
The only real issue you may run into are older apps no longer compatible with gingerbread. Same applies to ICecream testing. Icecream uses the basics of gingerbread but is scalable. The interface has been simplified and adjusted so it can run on an drid and android device. At teh core its still gingerbread modfied to run basic or run with full effects. SO if leaks or official ICecream hits all phones which is what google wants eventually, it is very adaptable across all phones and tablets.

  • How I prepare for the MCP exam?

    How I prepare and how can I get the syllabus? 
    Are there books for MCP exam?

    First of all, the syllabus for each exam is in the exam description page, under the heading "Skills Measured". For instance, for exam 70-410, the exam description page is here:
    https://www.microsoft.com/learning/en-us/exam-70-410.aspx. For other exams, you can change the number at the end of the URL, or find the link from www.microsoft.com/learning.
    I personally prepare for the exams by taking the Skills Measured list and checking each entry to verify that I have the corresponding knowledge. If I find an entry that I don't know much about, I search MSDN and/or Technet for documentation, or I browse
    the web for articles or tutorials on the subject.
    Alternatively, if you prefer guided learning, examine the section "Preparation Options" in the exam description page. You wil see many options such as books and courses. Not every MCP exam has a corresponding book, but many of them do, so this
    is a viable option if you are familiar enough with the subject matter to be able to learn from a book.

    Hello everybody,
    I post this thread because I'm going to take the exams to get the certification as Oracle EBS R12 Supply Chain Certified Expert Consultant and I'd like to understand how to best prepare myself.
    Is there anyone who has already got this certification and can indicate me the best material to prepare myself?
    I've worked on Oracle EBS (R11) for more than nineteen months up to now, focusing on the purchasing area, but I don't think that that could be sufficient to pass the required exams...
    Thank you very much

  • How to prepare for 1zo 052 exam?

    Hi
    I have recently passed my 1zo-051 exam and i am looking forward to taking the next step to become a certfied admin profession .I am not very sure as to how to prepare for the exam should i study dumps and ebooks or should i go for practical training download the software set it up  from scratch and learn ?

    >should i study dumps and ebooks or should i go for practical training download the software set it up  from scratch and learn ?
    'Dumps' is short for Brain Dumps and these are not valid preparation materials.  Using them can cause you to be banned from the Oracle certification program.
    Installing the software is good preparation. You can also find a number of links to valid study materials here:

  • Update of software for iPad was interrupted and the iPad is now locked up.  Any ideas for how to re-start the update process?

    Hi all,
    I was updating the software on my iPad2 and while trying to multitask stopped the update process.  My iPad is now locked up and unresponsive.  Does anyone have ideas about how to re-load the update?

    You will need to hold down the power + sleep button, wait for restart, then hold home.  iTunes should then be in DFU mode.  Once in DFU mode connect to iTunes and click "Restore".  PRESTO!

    trying to update apple tv (small black box).  how do i do update?  can't find system settings. i see system preferences no mac pro.  does apple tv need to be plugged into hdtv for the update or PC.  If PC, how?

    You have to do it on the Apple TV itself while it's plugged into a TV so that you can see its screen.
    I quote
    How to update software on your Apple TV (2nd and 3rd generation)
    Learn how to update the software on your Apple TV (2nd and 3rd generation). It's always a good idea to have the latest software on your Apple TV.
    Update your software
    Select Settings > General > Update Software. Apple TV checks for an available update; if one is available, a download message should appear.
    Click Download and Install to start the download process.
    Do not disconnect your Apple TV during the update process. The Apple TV status light may flash slowly during the update and restart process. This is expected behavior.

    I can not get ny updates and therefore not use Java, as it only run updates for MAC 10.7. and later. How do i get the updates to install and use JAVA ?

    In Snow Leopard you update Java from Software Update (in the Apple menu). You can check your version by opening Terminal and typing
    java -version
    (don't get creative and type anything else)
    The latest version is 1.6.0_65.
