Before updating to a new version of webOS, it is very important to follow certain procedures. Here is an outline of the recommended way to update your webOS when you use Patches (and/or Themes) installed via Preware. Deviating from this procedure could cause unwanted results.
- 1. Open Preware and select Installed Packages.
- 2. Remove any Theme(s) you have installed. There SHOULD only be one...
- 3. Go back to the main menu and select "Patches" and then "Recovery".
- 4. Install "Emergency Patch Recovery". Note: This will remove all patches. Please read the description.
- 5. If you have Luna Manager installed, start it and "Restart Luna". If not, reboot your phone.
- 6. Update webOS. :)
- 7. Fire up Preware and bring down the App Menu (top left corner).
- 8. Select Update Feeds.
- 9. Continue on to reinstalling your Patches/Theme.
- 10. Thank the webOS-Internals group!
