New Tecno phones support Over The Air (OTA) update - i.e update directly from your Settings > About > System updates .

Old Tecno phones dont support OTA updates so you have to manually flash an OS update via a custom ROM. We'll go through the steps below:

1. Root the Tecno phone ( See https://www.hovatek.com/forum/thread-1.html )

2. Flash Clockworkmod to the phone ( See https://www.hovatek.com/forum/thread-455.html

3. Download the ROM you wish to update to ( You can check our Developers section )

4. Copy the ROM to the memory card of the phone and boot into recovery mode ( see  https://www.hovatek.com/forum/thread-479.html )

5. Click 'Install Update form Zip' and select the ROM on your memory card

6. Select 'Yes' to confirm

For more info on updating Android, you can read https://www.hovatek.com/blog/how-to-upgr...system-os/

for now, you'll need a custom ROM since Tecno doesnt support OTA upgrades
