Firmware : 'os' you got in your phone that control it
Software : Program you put on your computer.
T68i : Same as T68 (i guess)
Hope this helps

Firmware is the software in your phone |

Firmware is a kind of software that is embedded into your phone/hardware's ROM (or read-only memory). |

If you think of your phone as the same as a PC, the firmware is the BIOS, and the software is what runs over the top of it like windows or Mac os |
