How to Flash Nokia 500

Well, we must have heard about the term flashing, but most of us I guess did not understand the meaning of the word flashing. Flashing can be referred to as rooting but it is like not just getting access to phone as your own, but to change the complete way the phone works. Flashing a smart phone means we change the operating system which our smart device is currently using to a new operating system.

Flashing

With the help to flashing we can change the operating system our smart device is currently using some other operating system. Basically flashing can be divided into two types which are named as partial flashing and complete flashing.

Partial flashing

In this kind of flashing we do not entirely change the operating system, but we can change a few read only memory commands. For example, if you are partial flashing a music app you can change the basic functionality of the app but the operating system remains the same. Thus, this kind of flashing is known as partial flashing.

Complete flashing

This flashing involves changing the complete operating system of the device like you would just swap your entire operating system with a new one. While doing this kind of flashing the entire memory will be erased and you have to have a proper backup of all the files you want to have for the future.
