N80 firmware really needed

come on nokia, we really need new firmware for n80!!! 4.07 i very buggy! makes the great phone useless in some functions (like ussd codes). any information about new firmware is valuable.... pls hurry!!

from the posts on this site, I agree. BUT I'd rather they didn't hurry it - you don't want to replace buggy firmware with more buggy firmware.
Currently using E71, looking at options

N80: Do I need operator specific firmware upgrade?

Hi,
I just had a nightmare with my local Nokia service center.
After ringing last week and being told they had the new N80 v4 firmware, I dropped the phone off yesterday morning to get it upgraded. I won't go into details, but it was so badly mismanaged, I missed a business meeting at 5pm, they told me it would be done on 4 separate occasions and then - they couldn't do it because it was an Orange branded phone.
Is this the case? Do I have to wait for a specific Orange version of the new N80 firmware? How will this affect the FOTA aspects once Nokia support it?
Regards
J>

If you handset is Network branded then the service point will only install the update that is authorised by the Network. this has always been the case. So it would look like Orange would need authorised that firmware update for their handsets.
I think it has something to do with braking the warranty you have with your network provider.
When receive a handset from your network provider, you are agreeing to use that phone with their software installed to get the full service. By debranding it your network can refuse to give you support. I'm my case I lost my handset and got a new one from my insurance. this one was not branded so when I call my network for help with mms/gprs setting they refused on that one detail.
Now I just stick to Generic handset, a lot les hassle.
Peace Out

Zen microphoto help!! please i really need your h

hello everybody, i bought a zen microphoto 4GB in June and it worked perfectly until two days ago. I turned it on like i do everyday to listen to music on my way to school. i downloaded the newest version of firmware onto it'sthree days before. when i turned it on, it went into recovery mode. so i went to reboot, and it goes back into recovery mode. i tried about 3 times, then it disabled all the functions. i couldn't control anything. so i took out the battery, and left it until i came home. i come home, put in the battery, turn it on. i plug it in the computer, and the computer does not reconize that its docked and the screen goes white and then it shuts off by itself. then it just freezes, it refuses to turn on. i tell my friend today at school and he said the hard dri've crashed and now i have a brick the size of a zen microphoto. is this true, or?is something else wrong with it. please someone help if you can. Creative Zen MicroPhoto 4GBfirmware dowloaded 3 days before--ZENMicroPhoto_PCFW_6__30_04.exepurchased- June 0, 2006 with product replacement plan from best buyproblems started occuring November 7, 2006Message Edited by barylakamil on -09-200603:22 PM

one method i saw and tried worked well but you need to try it at your own risk!!! turn off your microphoto, grab your microphoto with the screen facing you, and either slap your hand against the SIDE of your microphoto, or slap the SIDE of your microphoto against your hand. This method works for me but try it at your own risk. it could damage your hard disk. (its probably already damaged anyways.)and if you really need to turn off your Zen but it wont turn off, i suggest removing the battery.

Startup Screen Pixelated - I really need help on this one.

15" Macbook Pro - Spring 2011
My startup screen sometimes would be pixelated with the Apple logo and then would go to grey screen and do nothing... then I would be forced to shut down and power it up again. On two occasions, the bootup would have stripes on it. See photo.
And then the occasional lockup while working on something would happen and I was forced to power it down. This would happen periodically and not every day.
So... I had this problem a couple of months ago (for several months) and the Apple store kept my Macbook Pro for a few days and said there were reported no problems. They were clueless as to why I had the above screen show. They said... maybe it is a bad installation of the OS and that it got corrupted.
So a couple of months later and I am now I am having the same issues again. But this time, I had bought another HD and installed Mountain Lion on it... and I have it connected via USB. I had used it several times before last night when I held the option key down to choose my startup disk to be the new HD via USB. Then I get this pixelated screen again, but this time it was at the startup disk screen. See Photo.
It's like you have a car problem and you take it in to the shop only for it to not malfunction... I really need some guidance on this one. My AppleCare warranty just expired (was valid during my visit to the Apple Store)... And I am not a happy camper... I always use macs... and I teach everyone who has them how to use them.
So to be clear... This is the same internal HD that I had when I took it to the Apple Store. (Lion)
I installed Mountain Lion on a new HD connected via USB and have worked off of it for a few days with no problems, choosing it as a startup disk.
Last night booting with the option key held down I get this pixelated screen, whereas before it was never pixelated holding the option key down.
So I have a couple of questions:
Is the Boot Screen above run by the motherboard or the HD? If it is the MB, then I need to talk with Apple again.
Does anyone have any clue what is happening?I have reset my PRAM and switched out my RAM.
If this screen is run by the same HD in the laptop, then maybe I just need to take it out....?
I would appreciate any genius expertise. I am a little frustrated that I am having this problem and cannot narrow it down. I use my laptop extensively for presentation, graphics, and teaching and now I am afraid of it.

Your 10.7 EFI may be corrupted.
The way a Mac works is EFI is updated via Software Update, it's written to the OS X partiiton, then gets loaded into the hidden EFI partition and read/used upon the second boot.
So it takes two reboots to load EFI and goes into the EPROM boot memory.
My terminolgy might be inaccurate as I didn't take a Apple course for certification, but I understand a little about the boot stage from my Linux on Mac experience.
If your 10.7 EFI is corrupted on one drive, and you've got a 10.8 clean EFI on another, then it takes two reboots from the same drive to clear and use it's EFI into boot memory.
So if you've booted 10.7, then option booted to use 10.8, it could be the corrupted 10.7 EFI still in memory.
The way to fix the corrupted 10.7 EFI partition is a total wipe and format of the entire drive to catch the hidden EFI parition, then install 10.7 fresh and update.
Of course Apple made this difficult with Recovery Partition which won't allow a complete drive erase.
However you can do this
http://osxdaily.com/2011/08/08/lion-recovery-disk-assistant-tool-makes-external- lion-boot-recovery-drives/
There is also a way to install EFI firmware from a cd, however I don't know where it goes, reboot the 10.7 drive twice anyway
https://support.apple.com/kb/HT1237
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL77
Since your out of warrantly, you might want ot just go ahead and repalce the internal drive and see if that fixes the problem.

Does newest N80 firmware fix T9 dictionary bug?

My N80 firmware has been updated already twice in my local service point (Finland) for the same reason: in some phase of usage it stops saving new words to dictionary.
When writing SMS and entering a new word, it remembers that new word during the same message writing. When opening a new message to write, the word is no longer in use (not included in dictionary's suggestions).
First firmware update didn't fix the problem - I keep thinking because I restored a full backup from memory card - maybe restored also faulty dictionary file?? Don't know is that a file that is includes in full backup.
Second update: I didn't restore anything and "teached" the new words all over again. Now the dictionary has stopped working again!
I checked my current firmware: 4.0623.0.41 (build 26-07-2006)
Ran software update availability check: available version 4.0623.0.42 (build 20-09-2006).
I really wonder why my local service point hasn't put the newest firmware for me, think this new version has been out ages ago (yes, I do realise that build date is different that release date). These firmware re-installations (because the version hasn't changed from the version which was on the phone when I bought it on April 07) have both been done after May 2007.
Now, the question is, if I go to the service point, should they have this version 4.0623.0.42 available to my phone? The second time (in June) when I asked the newest possible version, this .41 was installed again - so can someone from Finland confirm if this new .42 has delivered to service points? Hate to go nagging there if they really don't have it
And more importantly, (and to this I like to hear the answer from Nokia personnel or from users who have been experiencing same problem) will this firmware version fix this problem? Either
a) keeps saving words
or
b) gives a proper error if saving is not possible for reason X
In my case it could not have been "not enough memory/free space"-error, because I have plenty of free space in both, phone and memory card. So if the error comes for some other reason, like to know why.
And no, I won't try to update firmware by my self. I tried it once and my phone died So no trust from me to that service.

I don't believe her claim unless it was true and valid up until the N95. I pass through Wales an awful lot during my work day and therefore I have many many Welsh town and place names entered into my T9 dictionary, along with other words I have added and the few custom smilies I added to it, it has to have way more than 30 words in it.
I'm aware of a bug that resets the T9 dictionary every now and then. The word file gets overwritten every so often and your words disappear. Never did find out what caused it but it affected the 6680. Perhaps this could be the problem.

N80 Firmware

Dropped off my N80 at my local service centre earlier on today to upgrade firmware. Got a phone call a couple of hours later from the engineer telling me that there has been 10 updates released for my phone for the version I have(I only got it last friday) but.... the phone will not respond to any update he tries to install. The phone is communicating with his computer but will not install any update. So I've since had to contact o2 to arrange a replacement to be sent to me, which will probably itself need to be taken for a firmware upgrade. Fingers crossed this one will be alright.

Hi
Im going to lock this thread, since the N80 firmware is being discused in other threads, and nothing is being said to merit a new thread.
New N80 Firmware - 4.0623.0.24
and

N80 Firmware changelog?

Is there a Nokia certified website or source where I can find a history of N80 firmwares and what changes took place in each one?
A changelog would be absolutely fantastic to help verify that new firmewares really fix observed problems.
Also, it could be used to check if I have the latest firmware (I know I could just hook my phone up and sync it, but I'd rather have a simpler method since I've seen the Nokia Software Updater program fail on me a lot hence I don't trust it).
Currently I have an N80 running 4.0707.0.7, updated just yesterday from the previous version.

Being a computer program and well familiar with embedded systems myself I was afraid the case would be that Nokia doesn't release the details of each firmware update. Honestly, I think that is a form of sort of "corporate programmer cowardice."
Regardless, you bring up another good point: N80 users certainly should NOT load the new 4.0707.0.7 firmware as it has some severe problems.
Just to help future searchers get this:
Nokia N80 4.0707.0.7 firmware is broken and bad, do not upgrade or load this firmware.

Do I really need Blu-Ray?

We recently came into this century by replacing our old 27" CRT with a nice new Samsung 42" plasma (PN42C450). We upgraded our cable to HD and have the set mounted on the wall and are very happy with our update, We also have an old VCR (have several older family tapes) and an older Toshiba DVD player.
I have played several DVD's with our player connected thru component connection. Admittedly they do look nicer on the new set than the old one. I understand that the upconversion offered in the newer DVD players will make them look even better. I know our set is 720P, but am also aware that it will display 1080i (I know because I have seen it do it in the store).
I notice that many of the newer Blu-Ray players also offer wifi connection built-in. We do have a wireless N network in the house. The connection sounds intriguing to me, but if it is only for netflix and streaming movies it would be of limited use to us. Blockbuster is just around he corner, and of course the cable company offers PPV movies on demand. On the other hand, if it would allow it to connect to our computers for reviewing photos, etc, then it might have a good use.
Back to my original question, do I really need a Blu-Ray? We do not own any blu-ray disks, and certainly don't need 3D. Will the current lot of DVD upconverting machines allow me to display in 1080i? I have been looking also at the Samsung model 6500 as a possible purchase (because of attractive pricing) and notice that it will also upconvert my DVD's and has built in wifi.
Looking for opinions from those of you with more knowledge than I. Thanks.

Blu-ray is definitely worth the upgrade. A few points to consider:
Blu-ray will upscale your DVD's to 720p or 1080i. If you ever get a 1080p TV, it will upscale to that also.
Supports HDMI which provide you better sound and picture quality.
Plays your current DVD's
Most Blu-ray discs are region free so can easily import from UK, Japan, etc.
Many new release Blu-rays also include a DVD copy of the movie for only a couple of bucks more.
Many Blu-ray players are network connected, and like you mentioned offer streaming from Netflix, as well as Hulu, Vudu, and some even have Apps for Facebook, Twitter, and can connect to your home media network for music, video and picture streaming.
Companies push firmware updates to Blu-ray players to keep up with technology...i.e I've had support for 3D pushed to 2 of mine.
One other note; you mentioned 1080i a couple of times. 720p is generally going to provide you with a better picture quality than 1080i will. My advice would be to not switch to 1080i regardless of whether you move to Bluray or not.
I personally have 4 Blu-ray players in my household and wouldn't have it any other way.

Do really need to soft/hard reset after updating f...

hello..
i just wanna know do we really need to soft/hard reset our phone after updating firmware??
btw im using nokia 5800XM..im updating my firmware from V50 to V51
tq..
Buy Original..See Original..
Solved!
Go to Solution.

In my experience I've found that when I don't do the reset before and after I invariably have problems. For example when I updated my N97 to the v22 firmware the auto-rotate function stopped working properly.
I actually also remove all apps and format the mass storage prior to the firmware update which ends up taking a ridiculously long time with the reloading of my media and maps but I now realize that I'll end up having to do it anyway so I might as well do it properly the first time.
It could just be the N97 as it's such a hunk of junk but I think it's more likely that it's an issue with the update process in S^1.

Updating N80 firmware over the air

Can somebody please tell me how to update my N80 firmware over the air?

Assuming you have the correct software version (I think you need at least 4.0623.0.41) then you can open Device Manager and then select Options -> Check for updates. From other discussions it looks like not all variants have this feature activated.
I did hear a rumour that if you have an N80 in the UK with SW version older than 4.0623.0.41 and variant 58 you can phone the Nokia careline and they can send you the latest software. (of course my friend might have been joking)

Wifi Syncing really needs a fix. Or at the very least some manual parameters.

After installing IOS5 , itunes 10.5 and making sure eveything works i've come across a snag like many others.
Wi-fi syncing simply doesn't work for me.
I have the option in summary , it is clicked and enabled.
I've followed the trouble shooting guide here : http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4062 a few times over.
Still my phone claims not to see the computer itunes is installed on.
On my phone , in settings - general - iTunes Wi-Fi Sync the button is greyed out and under it it says "Sync will resume when "HOUSE-03-PC-05" is available".
It is available LOL , ios stop lying to me.
I have installed a few ping apps , where pinging to the ip of said computer works fine from my phone.
I have disabled my windows firewall to be sure nothing is being blocked by it.
I checked if bonjour still works with other apps that need it. And they work.
Airvideo for example can connect to the computer that has my itunes installed just fine.
I installed "ip scanner" , it seems to discover the netbios name of the "HOUSE-03-PC-05" computer just fine.
The wireless access point I use is a D-link 2100AP, it doesn't block nor firewall anything. . Everything else wifi related I do works fine.
Itunes is running , my power cable is plugged in , and i'm not sitting at the wrong side of the desk while looking at the back of my screen.
I have even started a few tcp server programs of my own making on various ports on the pc itunes is installed on and connected to those ports using issh in telnet mode , and it works just as it's suposed to.
Something really needs fixing when it comes to the phone finding the computer that it uses for syincing.
Maybe the option to indicate the IP to try and connect to would fix it ? is it a resolve issue?
I was thinking the problem could be from uisng hyphens in my netbios names , but i really would doubt that .
Any more ideas on what more I could test for would be apreciated .
Kind Regards
Phoenixxl.

I had exactly the same problem and couldn't find the answer anywhere. However after playing a bit I found out that my computer name (i.e. Right click on "Computer" and select properties) contained a hypen. I renamed the computer to delete the hypen, restarted and now it syncs wirelessly like a charm!
Obviously something that apple overlooked which will probably right itself in the next release but should get you up and running fingers crossed!

You'll need to update to at least ACR 8.2 for the 70D to be recognized. The normal way to update PSE12 to the latest CR is to use Help / Updates in the Editor which should update to ACR 8.5.
According to Adobe's website PSE12 shipped with ACR 8.1 and you say it says yours is reported as ACR 8.0.
Are you using PSE 11 and not 12? PSE 11's maximum ACR version is 8.0.
