    So I have an Android phone and it wants me to do a software update. I've never done one before. What do I do?

        @techdisk Samsung Galaxy Ace 2, and I don't know what that means.

          @thelastgherkin if it isn't rooted, do the update.

            @techdisk Do I like, back it up or something?

              @thelastgherkin nope. If it was over the air, no need. Just plug it in so it doesn't die during the update. That would be bad.

                  @thelastgherkin depends. Don't expect it to be fast though. And also Wi-Fi or LTE.

                  @thelastgherkin i'm checking right now, you REALLY wanna update. You get ICS. (Its not just a bugfix)

                      @thelastgherkin ICS = Ice Cream Sandwich, the codename for Android 4.0

                          @thelastgherkin It's a new pretty cool version of Android, only one semi-major release old (the newest one is Jellybean).

                            @omni What's wrong with the old version?

                              @thelastgherkin It's just not as cool as the new version. I don't know what version you run, but ICS is a GREAT improvement over Gingerbread.

                                  @thelastgherkin A lot. Depending on your device, you will probably not get ALL of these features, but you will at least get most: http://www.addictivetips.com/mobile/whats-new-in-android-4-0-ice-cream-sandwich-feature-review/
