A driver is software used to keep a device running a function. Drivers vary according to the operating system used, so be sure to check the version installed on your mobile device before downloading.
Necessary
- - Internet access;
- - cable for connecting the phone to the computer.
Instructions
Step 1
Find out the version of the operating system installed on your phone. You can do this by looking at the documentation that comes with the kit, as well as finding a description of your model on the manufacturer's official website. Next, find a site where you can download the driver you need.
Step 2
Whenever possible, choose resources with good reviews, since recently there has been an increase in cases of fraud associated with sending calls and SMS messages to short numbers by applications installed on a smartphone.
Step 3
Find a driver suitable for your operating system, download it to your computer, and then be sure to check it with an antivirus program. If possible, examine the source code for malicious code. After that, copy the installer to your phone's memory by pairing with a USB cable or wireless Bluetooth connection.
Step 4
In the menu of your phone, open the memory module to which you copied the driver installation file. Run it, follow the installation process following the instructions in the menu. Please note that drivers should not ask you to send SMS messages or outgoing calls. They can also request the application's access to the Internet connection for correct operation or a subsequent update, it all depends on the type of the driver itself. It is best to agree if you connect using an unlimited data plan.
Step 5
If you do not have access to a computer, download the driver from your mobile device's browser. This option is much worse, because in most cases, you will not have access to virus scanning and viewing the source code. If your smartphone does have a security system installed, scan the memory after loading the driver and only then proceed with the installation in the same order.
