Re: Firmware Updates in North America (NAM devices...

I have bought an E75-2 (NAM device) 2 months ago. I have noticed that I cannot upgrade this phone with the latest ver. 200 firmware, compare to the euro devices. The E75-2 works, but not perfectly (this device should work better than this!!).
As Nokia is selling this phone in North America, I would think that any software fixes should be applied to the whole product line, rather than regional only. Especially the software and fixes are common amongst all E75s.
Nokia, you have very good product here (the E75). But you must Get Your Act Together, and provide the service that all Nokia's customers deserved. Please have all upgrades available to all your customers, as all good customers (not just the ones in Europe and Asia) deserve the best service Nokia can provide.
Ps. When are we going to receive the Free Navigation GPS software for the E75?

Something weird is happening to E63 firmware.
I had v200, skipped v300 (don't know why) installed v400. Then I learned v410 was released, I went to website, to check it with my product code but no updates for me. Later I discovered than v500 was released, ran nokia software updater but latest I found is v410. Great! I updated it and waiting for v500 for North American losers, such I am. Yesterday went to the website to check it with my product code and got info that latest fw for my device is v200. Weird, ha? Just now checked it again and first time saw "Sorry! No software update available for this product code via the Nokia Software Update Tool. ".
Are they fixing it or they just decided to ditch us all?

Firmware Updates in North America (NAM devices) - ...

After reading the UK campaign for equality post - I thought I'd start one for us North American folks.
As a loyal (but now beginning to waver) owner of Nokia devices since 1998.. it's always been a sad state of affairs in terms of upgrades, and getting new devices, especially compared to the rest of the world, PERIOD.
While I realize that our phones may require a slightly different chipset because of the odd ball frequencies that our areas use - there is no sane or logical reason why we get shafted on model firmware updates otherwise. While I do not have a hardware engineering degree - I cannot see why the primary functions of firmware updates cannot be easily ported over to the NAM versons of Nokia phones.
While a lot of you out there have valid complaints (like the UK) in release time - and do eventually get them. We in the NAM market have been consistently.. well, screwed, is the only way that I can think of it. I have consistently made it a point to buy Unlocked and unbranded devices DIRECTLY from Nokia USA so that I can have flexibility and know that I will eventyally, hopefully,get some sort of update.
With all the new N and E series devices that I have owned - N95-3, N85-3, E75-2, E65, N79 come to mind - we have been consistently, and systematically been delayed as candidates for firmware releases. Example: N95-3 - The was launched as a FLAGSHIP device. All OTHER versions of the N95 got and received a v30 upgrade - the n95-3 didn't even get it as a possibility until almost 7 months later!!! E75 - a lot of you got the v200 upgrade and things work perfectly - I should know - I have a friend who has a E75-1 handset, and we compare notes and see how sad and slow my device is! We're still on v110! N85 - the same way, MONTHS later. It goes on and on.
I mean, if you're NOT going to support a device - that's fine - just TELL us upfront. Don't tease us with versions of firmware for other practically identical devices - and then have your North American support counter parts completely clueless as to any news whatsoever. If you're not going to support the product with firmware updates - just tell me, and I'll make my decisions to purchase, or not, accordingly.At least with other mobile manufacturers - I know there is a set steady time frame of support and so on.
What's even worse than the tease with the other versions of firmware, is the NokiaUSA site itself. You go there, and you see that OH - hey! There's apparently a new version of firmware available for my device on the 'pretty' pages that allow you to select your device. *BUT* whenever you type in a NAM device code on the actual check page - it's never available at the same time as the rest of the family of devices. Heck, we're lucky if we are only 1 revision behind for most, if not all, devices! If you're not going to give us the updates - then make sure your localized website doesn't even mention it! This false hope is the worst wound of all!
And yes, I do realize that Nokia does not have the market share in the NAM market as it would like - but helping us 1st adopters to have wonderful working devices is probably your best form of advertising to people who've never even seen the devices before! I don't know how many of my friends and colleagues have bought Nokia devices because they see how well they CAN work as compared to what they are used to! You want market share? well, help us, to help you!
North American users please chime in and add kudos to this if you feel the same way!

Nokia Senior Managers,
I want to help you. So do all the other customers on this site. The 5800 is the best phone on the market, but it needs the updated firmware (v.4) in NAM as soon as poosible.
Other suggestions (places you are doing well and need help).
Doing well - maps (on-device with GPS is much much better solution than wireless network based only - MARKET this fact, where is the advertising??) and push e-mail. You should make the push e-mail free for life on your smartphones, like you did with maps (then market along with free mapping). This would eliminate Android and Blackberry given the technology and price point.
Need more work - ease of set-up, user interface, music, and apps. All of these need to be improved to take on Apple. It took two full days to set up my phone (before installing music). That is way too long. Everything is convoluted, like it was developed on Mars. This could be one CD that comes with the phone and make everthing easy, or just pre-loaded so you can turn-on and go. The touch screen user interface is ok, but could be much better (more homescreen choices, etc.) Regarding music, don't try to sell, just make a simple pass-through that works well, leave selling (or sharing) music to others. (maybe buy MediaMonkey and incorporate to have a good universal music management program) Regarding apps, this is moving in the right direction, but you need to do more. More apps, make them free, and partner like crazy with media companies, U.S. universities (who are developing for all other smartphones except Nokia through Blackboard, etc.), and any other company/organization that has a cool app. This is the sizzle, which in the U.S. sells more than the steak.
Good luck and let us know if we can be of assistance.

Firmware Update for E71s from E-Plus Germany

Dear all,
I was wondering why the firmware update for the Nokia E71 has been out and about for quite some time, but there is still no update available for my E71 which I have bought from the German provider E-Plus. It has no branding nor any visible other customizations for E-Plus. It's product code: 0569284.
Any date for the firmware update?
Thanks.
-Franz

No it isn´t a fraud, the product code only tells you about the software branding (not all software brandings are equally aggressive) and doesn´t automatically means that is has to have operator logos all over the place...
For more information on that have a look at this.
Probably the phone you bought was bought from e-plus in some way. Did it come with a e-plus contract?
By clicking the "Kudos!" or the "Solution?" button on the right you can say "Thank You" and you´ll show the author and others that the post is useful.

Firmware update for e6

hi, my firmware update for e6 doesnt wanna connect. Any time i try checking for updates. It tells me server not responding. And i saw an option where server profiles can be created. Need help and advice. Thanks

I've just upgraded a few weeks ago from a Nokia E71 to a Nokia E6-00.
I've had 3 no. E71 over last 3 years and without doubt, one of the best nokia phones I've had.
Having used the E6-00 for 2 weeks now, I'm reasonably happy but there are a few annoying features:
1. Normally my phone is locked, i.e. timed to lock after 5 mins. When a call comes in, I can answer the phone but I cannot place it in loudspeaker mode !!. Until I unlock it, which takes a few moments while I tell the person to hold on.
I try to minimise the use of the phone to my ear and use loudspeaker 90% of the time.
It would be great if nokia in the next update to allow to place the call in loudspeaker mode from a locked and answered call state. i.e. provide a loudspeaker button from the locked screen.
2. The email send & recieve is sketchy, works sometimes, doesn't work most times and when downloading the email content, takes forever just for text content !!, when downloading an attachment...go and have dinner before its ready.
Email on the E6-00 is configured to get email from a pop email server.
3. The left and right bottom screen buttons (i.e. (Options and Menu) are not configurable anymore like they were in the E71. I liked to have them as Clock and Log.
4. Battery life is not as good as the E71 but thats just an observation, not expecting miracles here, however, it is still better than most smart phones ... but just not as good as the old E71.
5. Web browser could be better, although way faster than
Overall, though, I think it will be the right move from my trusted E71, provided the loudspeaker problem in 1 above is sorted.

Firmware update for HP OfficeJet Pro 8000 wireless to fix load paper issue - as for the 8500?

Is there any hope that that soon will be a firmware update to fix the issues loading paper and the printheads for the HP OfficeJet Pro 8000 wireless printer?
A month or two ago there came a firmware update to the HP OfficeJet Pro 8500 wireless, which has some of the same issues,
and allegedly should have the much of the same load-mechanism as the 8000 printer.
It would be great, as we are on the fourth (4) replacement of this HP 8000 printer. For example, it would be great if we could use normal (80g) paper and not has to use (HP) 90g paper, as this prevents us from using the duplexer and only print on one side.

Thanks for the advice to contact HP tech support!
I have tried in multiple ways since November 2009 to contact HP, when I got the first (of 4) printers. The first 3 printers was subsequently replaced.
Finally in late June 2010 I got the message that there was coming an firmware update for Windows, but not for Mac's. The firmware should improve among other things the paper pick up (load paper issue) and the print-heads life.
I have applied the Windows firmware on the printer from a pc, but still seems to have load-paper issues, even using HP Bright White paper, when printing from Mac's. I have not tested the printing from a pc, but assumes that a firmware upgrade the printer, and are not specific to a certain OS.

Where do I get an SMC Firmware Update for my 21.5 inch Late 2009 iMac?

Hello Apple Support Communities,
I have a 21.5 inch, Late 2009 Intel iMac. Currently it is running OSX Lion. It is also running Bootcamp with Windows 7 Professional Installed. Recently the Hard drive crashed on me and I ordered a new generic Hitachi from an Apple Reseller. I took all the precautions and asked all the questions, but when I finished the hard drive replacement, the fans within the iMac started running on High. The other people in my office Hate this. I did some research and found that there is a firmware update for the SMC that I should be installing. I looked on the webpage where apple directs you to find out if you need this update, but I can't find my exact specs on the page (here is the page for reference: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1237) I can only find an update for the 27 inch model. I tried running that one and the system tells me "This software is not supported on your system."
Here are the specs that the page requested me to find:
Model Identifier:          iMac10,1
Boot ROM Version:          IM101.00CC.B00
SMC Version (system):          1.52f9
Someone please help, this has been bugging me for a while.

I took all the precautions and asked all the questions,
Then I trust you saw this before you did the replacement. Apparently, it's not just a question of getting a drive from the same manufacturer to use with the proprietary cable.
http://blog.macsales.com/2751-proprietary-cable-can-put-the-brakes-on-upgrading- late-09-imacs
It's acting as if the temp sensor is not connected. I have it bookmarked amidst thousands of bookmarks but can't remember the name right now. There is some program out there that, in the absence of getting data from the internal sensor, will regulate the fan speed based on the SMART temp. If I think of it, I'll post back.
Here it is. It's meant for the 2011 iMac Apple drives, but I don't see why it wouldn't work in your situation.

BTW, I think John Galt is thinking of the 2011 iMac drives, not the late 2009s, which are not quite as impossible.

WHY DOESNT NOKIE POST MORE FIRMWARE UPDATES FOR OT...

I AM NEW TO THIS BOARD AND HAVE FOUND THAT NO MATTER WHAT I DO TO UPDATE MY NOKIA 6230i (FIRMWARE AND RADIO SOFTWARE)I MEET A BRICK WALL.
IT SEEMS NOKIA ARENT INTERESTED IN GIVING YOU SUPPORT ONCE YOURE PHONE IS ANY MORE THAN A YEAR OLD.
THIS TO ME IS VERY UNFAIR AS I HAVE SPENT A LOT OF CASH ON THIS PHONE TRYING TO UPDATE VISUAL RADIO USING THE DIRECTIONS PROVIDED WITH NO SUCCESS AS THESE DIRECTIONS DO NOT WORK AS I CANT FIND ANYWHERE TO DOWNLOAD THE THE NEW VISUAL RADIO WHILEST ON WAP.
THIS TO DATE HAS COST ME £75 TRYING TO FIND THE LINK.
ALSO I HAVE BEEN ASKING FOR THE FIRMWARE UPDATE FOR THE 6230i AS I SEE THIS AS BEING FAIR AS EVERY OTHER MOBILE THAT IS BEING POSTED CAN BE UPDATED OVER THE AIR AND THROUGH SOFTWARE UPDATE.
WHY CANT MINE AND MANY OTHERS.
EVEN IF NOKIA POSTED THE LAST RELEASED FOR EVERY MOBILE EVEN FOR THE OLD ONES I WOULD BE VERY GREATFUL .
MY NOKIA HAS A VERY OLD FIRMWARE V3.40 THIS NOKIA KNOWS IS FULL OF BUGS AND SHOULD BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE FOR POSTING THE FIXES UNTILL THERE ARE NO BUGS TO SORT WITHOUT EXCESS COST OR HAVING TO VISIT A RECOMMENDED REPAIR DEALER.
I WANT IT FREE JUST LIKE THE NEXT GUY SO NOKIA POST THE FIRMWARES AS SOON AS POSSIBLE AS I AM COMPLETELY FED UP WITH THIS FONE AND ITS BUGS.
YOURS SINCERELY
AN UNHAPPY CUSTOMER

First of all, please locate the Caps Lock key of your keyboard; all upper case text is hard to read, and traditionally considered as shouting. Of course, you may already know that, and intended to shout.
Anyway, most phones do not have the built-in support for do-it-yourself firmware updates.
For such phones your options are (if you think you need a firmware update):
- Take/send the phone to an authorized Nokia service/repair center, where the update can be done.
- Buy relativelt expensive flashing equipment and locate illegally distributed firmware files and try it on your own with that.
My advise is to go for the former rather than the latter option. The former should cost you anything (at least not for as long as the phone is under warranty & excluding what it takes for you to go there).
As to downloading "THE NEW VISUAL RADIO WHILEST ON WAP", I don't know what you mean by that. I don't know a 6230i, but either it comes with Visual Radio built-in or not. Any updates/fixes to it would come with a firmware update, but not over WAP.
Note also that you don't need the Visual Radio service to listen to FM radio channels, and most radion stations do not support the "Visual" bit at all (if they do, the support is indicated in the station directory in the radio app on the phone).

Where is the firmware update for my ipod touch

I recall that there was a firmware update for my 1st Gen Ipod Touch. I did not do it at the time, but would like to do the update now to the most current firmware available for my touch. I am now on version 2.2.1 (5H11) Can anyone tell me where I can find the newer firmware? Is there any benefits to the new firmware or should I just leave it as is?

Firmware Update for my blackberry 8830 world edition with Bell Canada

Hi does anyone know if there is firmware update for the Blackberry 8830 world edition with the carrier being Bell Canada? I am running version 4.2 and I know there is 4.5 but I am not sure if this applies the my phone with Bell Canada. When I boot up my desktop manager and checks for updates and says that there is no update. I don't want to update if it is not necessary and not be able to run my blackberry. If I am able to update where would I go to get the 4.5 update?

You have to repair Desk Manager or unintall and reintall DM, but this time uncheck "Auto update" and anything that refer to "update" the reason why I mention that is because everythime you run DM, it goes online and check for newer version and put this file "vendor.xml" in the Blackberry Common Folder, and with that file in place, it will block the program from installing the newer version from a difference cell company..
From what I see 4.2 is the only version that is up to date for a 8830...but if you have a 8820, you can update to 4.5.

Is there a firmware update for burning at 16x with Matshita DVD-R UJ 845E?

Is there a firmware update for burning at 16x with Matshita DVD-R UJ 845E? I'm trying to burn a DVD using iDVD on my iBook. The blank DVD's are Memorex 16x (I've used Memorex 8x successfully in the past), the DVD drive is specified above. The finder tells me that the drive has reported an error "sense key=medium error/ sense code=0x73, 0x03" I couldn't find firmware updates in either Panasonic Matshita or Apple websites. Am I forever confined to 8x DVD-R's with this laptop?
ibook G4 Mac OS X (10.4.7)
ibook G4 Mac OS X (10.4.7)

First, welcome to the discussions.
Sorry, No Firmware update to allow you to burn at 16X.
The drive you have is only capable of burning at 8X.
You will also find that for the most part when you recieve errors that it is more often than not attributed to MEDIA.
There are so many problems with the cheaper media they are to numerous to cover.
DVD is not at all like CD burning, in that the technology as well as the Optical Drives used, seem to be touchy, and require the use of good Media. This will allow you trouble free burning without errors.
http://www.digitalfaq.com/media/dvdmedia.htm
You will also find that the reason that DVD-R Media works the best, is because it is the most wirely used and recognised in both Computers and Players.
If I may suggest. There are several 16X DVD's on the market.
Take your time and look at the back of the Jewel Cases and read. You will see that the better Media will tell you that it will burn at 1X through and including 16X, if your drive is capable of handleing these speeds. I prefer Maxell 16X DVD-R Media in the individual Jewel Cases. This Media burns at the slower speeds on the older Superdrives that will only burn at 1X or 2X.
Like many others I have learned my lessons the hard way.
Cheers Don

Firmware Update for Samsung PM851 Family SSD's

Just purchased a Yoga 2 Pro and found that it came with a Samsung MZMTE256HMHP-000L1 256 GB SSD. This is a member of the Samsung PM851 SSD family, which is essentially an OEM clone of the PM 840 EVO. The 840 Evo has well documented slowdown problems, and as a result, Samsung has released several firmware updates to address the issue. Several other OEM's have released firmware updates for their OEM versions. However, Lenovo has not. Is there a way to update the firmware of this SSD that I'm not finding? Supposedly Samsung Magician won't work. Thanks,C

Lenovo did release an update utility for the Thinkpad series. Will this work with the Yoga 2 Pro?
