general doubt regarding upgrade

[nitishs7]

if i upgrade my phone to ics n if internet connection breaks or something happens during the process, will my phone get damaged permanently? is it better if i give it to sony service center itself for upgrading? and what is flashing? is it the same as rooting?

[nitishs7]

it didn't work! i was pressing the back key while inserting usb cable n the software keeps hanging!:smileyangry:

called up sony india cc n  they said i can use only pcc to update:smileysad: n service centers are not "authorised" to update:smileyshocked: but he said in future they will start updating phones..is it true? how is it in ur country?

FYI... Via PC Companion... Please keep in mind that, updating the phone will not start until the downloading the firmware is finished.... Once the firmware is downloaded, there is no need for internet connection... The downloaded firmware is pushed to the phone and update process will follow...... If anything happened(Power outage or laptop charge gone) on pushing the firmware, their may be a problem arises, Its upon where the download firmware is stored for updating, may be moderator or support/developer can answer this....

that doesn't make sense that an "AUTHORIZED" sony center is NOT authorized to update phones.

there is only one sony center in the US and it's really far
