Update the BlackBerry Device Software using the BlackBerry Desktop Software

Research In Motion recommends that you regularly create and save a backup file on your computer, especially before you update any software. Maintaining a current backup file on your computer might allow you to recover smartphone data if your smartphone is lost, stolen, or corrupted by an unforeseen issue.

Connect your BlackBerry® smartphone to your computer and open the BlackBerry® Desktop Software. For more information, see the Help in the BlackBerry Desktop Software.
