Nipeni ujuzi wa kuhusu hili neno maana hata sijui lina maana gan hasa kwa upande wa simu

Nawasilisha.
 
Firmware is a software program or set of instructions programmed on a hardware device. It provides the necessary instructions for how the device communicates with the other computer hardware. But how can software be programmed onto hardware? Good question. Firmware is typically stored in the flash ROM of a hardware device.

While ROM is "read-only memory," flash ROM can be erased and rewritten because it is actually a type of flash memory.

Firmware can be thought of as "semi-permanent" since it remains the same unless it is updated by a firmware updater. You may need to update the firmware of certain devices, such as hard drives and video cards in order for them to work with a new operating system.

CD and DVDdrivemanufacturers often make firmware updates available that allow the drives to read faster media. Sometimes manufacturers release firmware updates that simply make their devices work more efficiently.

You can usually find firmware updates by going to the "Support" or "Downloads" area of a manufacturer's website. Keeping your firmware up-to-date is often not necessary, but it is still a good idea.Just make sure that once you start a firmware updater, you let the update finish, because most devices will not function if their firmware is not recognised

kwa ufupi ndugu yangu ni hivii... najua unavijua na unavitumia vifaa vya electronics kama radios,simu tv computer modem remote camera projecta nk. vifaa hivi vimewekewa na wazalishaji(manufactures) mfumo maalum(program) wa kuviwezesha kufanya kazi na uvitumie ktk shuguli zako.

program hizo pamoja na data maalum hukaa katika kumbukumbu(rom) ya hicho kifaa. program hizo ndizo huitwa firmwares. Naamini pia ulishawahi kusikia juu ya habari ya kuflash simu au modem, kinachofanyika pale ni kubadilisha firmware ya hicho kifaa na maranyingi pale kinapokuwa na matatizo au uhitaji wa kukiupgrade.

Naamini pia utakuwa umepata mwanga kidogo. karibu kama kuna swali juu ya maelezo yangu
 
moto nkali,

Asante kaka nimekuelewa vizuri sana.

Leo Nimetumiwa ujumbe kwenye simu yangu Samsung GT-I9060 kwamba nifanye iyo Firmware update, nikadowload nika-install...ikafanya vitu vyake weee ikaji-reboot...afu ikaniambia "your device is successfully updated"..

SASA mi sijaona mabadiliko yoyote naona simu ipo vilevile tu kama zamani..SASA HAPA WATAALAMU NAOMBENI MNIAMBIE FAIDA NA HASARA ZA HIKI KITU NILICHOKIFANYA.

Firmware update haina maana ya kubadilisha muonekano wa kifaa chako..
kumbuka firmware ni program, kama zilivyo software nyingine na yenyewe inahitaji updation.
hizi updates sio lazima uzione kwa sababu ni functions kwa ajili ya kuboresha zile zilizokuwepo. kazi za kifaa chako ziko palepale ila zimeongezewa ubora.kumbuka ya kuwa kifaa chako kimekuwa programmed kuwasiliana na vifaa vingine na program zingine… na hiz updates zinasaidia kutatua matatizo kama haya ya muingiliano ie; compatibility issues na kufix bugs.
izingatiwe kuwa hizi ni codes ie maelekezo ambayo inafaa yaangaliwe na kuzingatiwa kulingana na wakati na mabadiliko yoyote.
eli uone mabadiliko kwenye kifaa chako unahitaji kuupgrade au kubadili version ya firmware mfano kutoka jellybean to kitkat au kitkat to lollipop hii ni kwa case ya android.
hamna hasara za kuupdate software kwan update ipo maalum kwa kukifanya kifaa chako kitende yanayopaswa

Mimi simu ni ya at&t unlocked ila hotspit haifanyi kazi. Fundi kashauri aweke firmware nyingine na hivyo kuondoa kabisa hayo makitu at&t na kuwa simu ya kawaida. Je ni weli,haina madhara?

Nini tofauti kati ya Firmware na OS?
 
Os ina run kwenye firmware nimsingi wa chombo husika na oparating system ni comand ya firmware(bios)
