  • N8 - Firmware Update & other things

    Hi Guys,
    I know the new Firmware is coming this month, but I am wondering when?  I am also wondering if I will get the firmware update immediately as I am on Orange UK.  
    Does anyone know what kind of improvements the new firmware will have?
    Also does anyone know when the new IM For Nokia will be released for Symbian^3?

    Hopefully, one of those '50 fixes' includes better optimised wifi settings, where it doesn't drain the battery that fast! Seriously, thats where the problem lies with battery life with me. By using the wifi, the battery can't last. I hope that the next firmware does a better power management job.
    Also, leaving your phone running on 3G also kills. But I don't mind going down to GSM (edge) at times.
    Argh! I wish Skype didn't take so much battery too! In my last phone (E72), using Wifi and Skype was a very good option to save battery. But with the N8, using WIFI or 3G kills battery.
    To be honest, if im embarking on a long journey, no way I would leave my skype running, because I would hate to have a dead battery before finishing the journey. But if I know that I will be passing by power outlets to charge my phone, then hell yeah, skype is back on!
    PS: Tron Legacy was such a good film. So glad to see the N8 being used in that film. I was feeling like 'best phone ever' when that part came

  • E72 Firmware Issue

    My phone gets restarted anytime by its choice. Messagign service is dull and email boxes goes off and then after restart comes back.
    Lot mant more issue, Seems we need a firmware update. 
    Any feedback or solution?
    Sachin

    I thought the issue of radio on only loudspeaker will be corrected after update to 081.003 but still the same.
    Even Hard-Reset & no change.
    Now all of a sudden, the situation has reversed, Radio is playing only on headphones whether I activate loudspeaker or de-activate it. Strange isn't it..

    Also have Nokia E72 & Nokia N8.

  • E60 firmware update @ Nokia Service Center

    Folks,
    when the E60 firmware update came out I already did know that I a have to visit the local Nokia Service Center (in Vienna) to get the firmware update, because I am a Mac User. These funny guys at the local Service Center then updated the firmware to the same version which was already installed?! Very smart... finally I found out that there is no firmware update for the E60 available at the Nokia Service Center at the moment. There is a chance that this will happen some day in near future...
    Come on Nokia; how does this work?!? Every PC user can download the update from the Nokia site but the folks at the local service centers have to search in their print-outs if their is any update available - sounds anachronistic, doesn't it?
    So, can anybody tell me, when I can expect the E60 firmware update to arrive at the local Nokia Service Centers (in Austria)?
    Thanks,
    bj

    The warranty with the phone is only valid in the Country / area in which it was sold.
    The ebay seller in the US probably got it cheaper abroad, and sold it on... Even if it was from the USA, the service centres wouldn't update it for you.
    The only thing you can do is keep checking the Nokia Software Updater

  • Nokia Firmware Update Lacking Accuracy & Consisten...

    I own a Nokia N73 Music Edition, was perfectly working fine since i bought but one day while surfing Nokia web site i found Nokia Software Updater and from then onwards the actual problem started after updating though it was successful, i have a question for who is responsible for making the firmware for Nokia N73 that before launching it on the web for update they don't test it or what, why only we the consumers suffer and i have found that one new firmware update version 4.0839.42.0.1 is available on the site but when i read the discussions page i found that this firmware also has a problem, so i am not going to update this firmware to make my cell the worse.
    Problem i'm facing since the update:
    In the middle of any conversation the phone automatically restarts and this is happening frequently nowadays and i have not installed any third party software in my cell, all the default software's are installed.
    I want my problem to be solved as soon as possible.
    Note: Please test the Firmware before releasing on the site, so that we the consumers don't have to suffer.

    what1 wrote:Question:
    When creating backup what options i have to mark (e.g. contacts, phone settings, messages, etc), so after doing the factory reset can i restore the backup on my phone.
    You should get individual options for contacts/calendar, applications & settings (these are bundled as one option though), messages, videos, photos, music and I think documents/files.
    I can't remember if you get the same options on restore. I think so.
    You can probably not bother with videos, photos and music, especially if you store them on the memory card as that should be untouched by the reset. They also take a long time to back up and I've found it can fail the backup for some reason. Instead I copy them off manually or sync photos, videos & music using Ovi Suite's sync functionality. The backup I do with the backup option in Ovi Suite.
    Oh, and if you have apps installed on the memory card, the phone may try to install them after the reset. If you want to avoid that, then it may be worth removing the memory card for the reset, but it will still try and install them when you put the card back in.

  • Macbook4,1 10.6.8 and firmware update - what went wrong?

    Macbook 4,1 2008 2.4Ghz (not unibody). I recently reformatted my hard drive and reinstalled 10.6 from the Retail DVD and all seemed to go well. The MB was working fine up to that point. I then set up the MB (network, date and time, etc.) and repaired permissions.
    I then checked Software Update and downloaded and installed the recommended updates to 10.6.8.
    Again, all seemed to go fine. System booted and I repaired Permissions again. I went to the Apple web site, a couple of other web sites, and Software Update found another update to install: Firmware. Though I don't remember what version.
    I clicked OK and it installed.
    Upon reboot, it seemed to install okay.
    But then I left the Macbook and it went into Sleep.
    I didn't come back to it again until the next day.
    When I pressed a key to wake it, I got what I now know is the screen that appears after you wake it from SAFE SLEEP. As per this Apple KB article: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1757.
    And this is where the problems started.
    After the MB woke to the Safe Sleep screen, which shows the desktop a little "out of focus", the progress bars started filling in from left to right, BUT before they completed, the screen went BLACK.
    And it has had a problem with black screen ever since. I can boot the MB from internal or external HD or from DVD, and it seems to boot fine. Boot chime, Apple logo, spinning wheel, then at the point where it pauses, blue screen, then goes to desktop, instead the screen goes black.
    It finishes booting, but seems to go into Sleep.
    I can wake it by pressing a key, but the screen either comes on and goes black again after 10 seconds, or I get the Safe Sleep wake screen, and then it goes black after 10 seconds.
    And at boot or when waking the MB, the front LED flashes 5 times. There are no error beeps.
    I've tried changing RAM, but problems remain.
    So what's all this? Any ideas?
    The display doesn't seem dead, as it works to boot and wake. The MB works fine with external monitor.
    It's weird, but I can't think of anything apart from the Firmware update. The problems started right after installing it.
    Unfortunately, this model of Macbook doesn't have a Firmware Restoration image to download and burn to CD. It is the ONLY Mac at this point that doesn't have this!
    I called Apple support and even bought the 49 Euro Pay Per Incident service, which proved to be the same as throwing 49 Euro out the window. The only "technical" support they provided was to Reset the SMC, which you can find out about FOR FREE at the Apple website. And which I'd done anyway. I'd also reinstalled the MacOS. Don't want to beef too much, but sheesh, you've already got a Macbook that might need costly repairs, and they make you pay 49 Euro BEFORE they even ask you about the problem and what you've done to try to solve it. I'm tempted to say "ripoff". I mean, if all they can offer you is the advice to reset the SMC - which Apple offers for free at their website - then that's pretty poor service for 49 Euro, to say the least.
    Apart from the wasted 49 Euro, I'm pretty peeved about the Firmware update (or so it seems) wrecking a perfectly working 2008 Macbook. I don't know how to convince Apple of this, but I'm certainly going to try.

    Thanks for the reply.
    Re. the Displays setting, the Macbook display isn't recognized and mirroring isn't an available option.
    I've scoured the net and the idea of replacing the PRAM battery may be something to try. I read a post by a guy with a Macbook logic board screwed up by a Firmware update, which he solved by replacing the PRAM battery, as when you disconnect it you reset the logic board.
    Which capacitor?
    No luck so far with talking to Apple. I will try to get hold of someone a little more tech savvy and/or in a position of authority, as it seems that the Firmware is the culprit. Obviously a million other things could go wrong with a Macbook, but given the timing here it looks like the Firmware. Firmware updates can and occasionally do screw up a computer, as most manufacturers will warn you before you apply the update: PC makers, printer makers, etc. And they probably warn you that it's all your responsibility if anything goes wrong. But re. the Apple Firmware update:
    1) it came thru Software Update
    2) there was no warning
    3) to make things worse, there's no Firmware Restoration image that I can burn to a CD to reflash the logic board: this is the only Apple computer that doesn't have a Firmware Restoration option
    I'll try to get thru to a manager and convince him/her that the firmware may have been the cause.
    Do you think an authorized Apple tech might have access to some way to do a firmware restoration? Something not avaiable to mere mortals? Because if not, the only solution looks like a new logic board.

  • New symptoms since latest firmware update

    OK I have a 1tb sky hd box which hasn't had any really annoying issues up until the new firmware update (the one with the new Kids tile which is annoying in its own right).  Anyway, I have been watching the cricket on SS2 and every so often when they break for a short advert between overs I've lost sound when it tries to revert to DD5.1 after switching from 2.0 on the adverts.  I have to change channel and back again to get the sound back.    Also, for the first time, my planner was showing empty today so I had to do a planner rebuild which solved the issue.  Still, at least they  seem to have solved the sound dropout issue.  So just heads up for anyone else with a 1tb box who experiences the same issues.

    (Quoting Karl Petersen here:)
    There's a bug in iMovie 6 that makes it impossible to re-edit (Update) photo clips previously imported with the Ken Burns checkbox ON. The source photo, normally stored in the Media folder of the project, is (inappropriately) discarded when you empty the iMovie trash. The clips Update as black clips and the preview is usually black too, if I recall.
    The workaround is to 1) drag the photo from the iMovie trash to the iMovie Clips pane; or 2) never empty the iMovie trash.

  • Cisco Router tried to take a firmware update and no longer works

    Ok so internet was working fine until Cisco Connect told me to take an update.  My connection is wired and there were no disruptions during the download.  Yet the download still failed and now my power light blinks continuously and there is no internet access.  I tried instructions on "How to unbrick your Cisco Router", even got them to work, it took the firmware update from the cmd line.  Still doesnt work though.  What's wrong with this thing and how do i fix it?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    I ended up downloading a firmware utility program and was able to get it to reload. The power light became solid somewhere between 2-5 mins, however still didnt connect to the internet.  Found that all this factory resetting will change your Internet access name & password, with no way to find out the new one.  You have to remove the Cisco Connect program from your computer and reload it from the original disk.  Only then will you be up and running again.  While I appreciate the response Helm, I was way beyond a 30 second reset button solution when I posted this lol.

  • Macbook 2008 4,1 serious problems after 10.6.8 and 1.4 firmware update

    I'm having a problem with my 2008 2.4Ghz Macbook. After doing a fresh install of 10.6.0 with a Retail DVD, the MB was working perfectly, absolutely no problems at all. I then ran Software Update and installed all the recommended updates to 10.6.8, and I only noticed in passing that there was a Firmware update to do too, as reported by Software Update. I ran that as well and, IIRC, it was applied after fully updating to 10.6.8 and after rebooting twice. The MB rebooted, ran the Firmware update (which seemed to complete fine, as the progress bar completed normally against the grey screen), then rebooted. Again, IIRC, after running the Firmware update, and I'm now at 10.6.8, I started a Repair Permissions and left the MB for a while. It was the next day, maybe 15 hours later, when I went back to the MB and it was in Sleep. I pressed a key to wake it and this is when the weirdness started.
    The screen was "fuzzy", sort of out of focus, though I could see the desktop, and what I could see was: the Disk Utility window open on Repair Permissions (which had completed normally) and several Vertical Segmented Bars running across the bottom part of the screen, at about the height where the Firmware Update progress bar was. These bars were filling in from left to right. IIRC, it may have looked a little like when you wake from Deep Sleep (or Hibernate, or whatever it was called). Like when you Wake from Sleep after the battery has run out and then you plug the AC adapter in.
    Anyway, before the Vertical Segmented Bars progress was completed, the screen went black. Pressing keys didn't bring the desktop back.
    I did a forced shutdown, reset the SMC, then rebooted. No startup chime. The Superdrive, hard drive and fans spun up, but the screen remained black. After a few reboots, I got a desktop back, and tried to reinstall from both an external HD (with Restored disk image) and the Retail Snow Leo DVD. Both times, the MB booted to the startup screen: with the external HD, I held down Option and chose the Snow Leo install; with the DVD, the MB started normally while I held down the C key. The boot started from the HD and the DVD, but after about 60 seconds, with Apple logo and the spinning "cog wheel", the screen went black. And seemed to shut down. With the external FW hard drive, the drive made a loud click, its LED went off, then it came back on after a few seconds, as if it had lost all power to it, then the LED lit up when power returned to it from the shut down MB. Anyway, the installs failed.
    I then attached the 2.4 MB to another MB (2.1) in Target Disk Mode and it booted fine into TDM. It showed up on the 2.1's desktop, I ran Check Disk and it checked out okay. I then looked under Startup Disk and the 2.4's disk was listed there, with 10.6.8.
    I then booted the 2.1 from the 2.4's disk and it booted fine. I ran check Permissions, and a huge list of permissions to repair came out. At this point, I've left things as they are. The 2.1 is booted from the 2.4, the latter used as external boot HD.
    I then replaced hard drive and RAM. Tried to boot from DVD and install, got to Apple logo and spinning cog wheel, but after about 2 minutes the screen went black.
    I then connected an external monitor and rebooted from the DVD. The external display received a video signal and I got to the Snow Leopard install screen. All this time the Macbook display has remained BLACK.
    I went to Disk Utility and reformatted the new drive, then started the installation, which completed fine. The Macbook runs normally connected to the external display.
    Any thoughts?
    Why would the Macbook display work fine at boot (Apple logo, etc.), but then cut out after about 2-3 minutes?
    Why would the Macbook screen remain black while I got a video signal on an external monitor?
    Does this sound heat-related in some way? I should note that while booting from the DVD and now installing Snow Leopard, the fans are going pretty fast.
    I just want to point out that this was an absolutely pristine, impeccable Macbook until these recent problems. It is in fantastic condition, none of the usual chips out of the top case and trackpad area. After the latest fresh install of 10.6.0 it was perfect upon reboot. Fast, perfect Airport and Bluetooth, FW and USB worked perfectly with a FW drive and USB mouse I hooked up. The update to 10.6.8 via Software Update seemed to complete fine.
    Then all the problems started AFTER THE FIRMWARE UPDATE.
    I don't know how much stock can be put in the firmware update being the cause of the problems, but the sequence here would bear that out. These are also somewhat unusual problems, at least in my experience.
    One of the odd things was when I first went to wake the Macbook after the firmware update: the "fuzzy", out-of-focus screen and the segmented progress bars. And it was just before the segmented bars completed progress from left to right that the display cut out and went black. And from that time on, I've had the aforementioned problems.
    Any ideas or links to similar problems would be greatly appreciated, e.g. possibly firmware related, or where the Macbook screen works but goes black after a couple minutes. And now that I've been able to connect to an external monitor, it would seem that the video signal is okay too.
    Thanks.

    Just to update.
    After leaving the Macbook unplugged and without battery for a few days. I reset the SMC and, with no battery installed, I've just now rebooted and:
    1) the first time, it booted, but no chime, and when the display turned on, once again I got the "out of focus" desktop AND the segmented vertical bars on the desktop (and the bars were filling in from right to left); the display went black after about 10-15 seconds;
    2) I shut down and swapped some different RAM, then reset the SMC again and booted without battery. This time I got the boot chime and the Macbook booted to the Apple logo screen and spinning cogwheel. After about 2 minutes, the cogwheel stopped spinning, as if to boot to the desktop, but then the display went black. The front light started to pulse after about 10 seconds, and the Macbook appeared to be in Sleep.
    3) I woke the Macbook from sleep by hitting a few keys and this time it went to the desktop. This is the first time it's gone to the desktop since the problem started.
    I had enough time to see that everything appeared normally on the desktop, such as the time and date, Airport was connected, etc. And then the display went black again, after about 10 seconds.
    At this point, I can now always get to the desktop, but the display goes black after about 10 seconds. I have just enough time to press a few keys and the Macbook does respond.
    4) I shut down and reinserted the battery. Here's where new problems show up.
    With the battery inserted, and the Macbook in sleep, if I hit a key, the DVD spins up as the Macbook is waking, BUT now the front sleep indicator light FLASHES (blinks) 5 TIMES. No beeps.
    The Macbook still gets to the desktop, like before, and the screen goes black after 10 seconds.
    I found some info on the Apple site re. 5 flashes (Article 21502):
    If you don’t hear beeps, but the sleep indicator light flashes five times when you start it up or wake it from sleep, its battery may need service. Take the battery to an Apple Authorized Service Provider, such as an Apple Retail Store.
    For more information, see the Apple Support article below.
    You can continue using your computer before you service the battery. Use a different battery, or connect the computer’s power adapter and plug it into a power source.
    Note:If you use your computer without a battery or with a faulty battery, you could lose all unsaved changes if it’s unplugged while it’s on.
    BUT, the battery is not defective, as it works okay in another Macbook.
    I should also point out that the problem with the 5 indicator light flashes or with the battery did not exist before the 10.6.8 and the Firmware 1.4 updates.
    Any ideas?

  • No updatable devices found after firmware update

    Unfortunately I didn't check here before doing the latest updates. I dl'd the following on the night of July 1:
    2007-07-01 01:49:08 -0400: Installed "SuperDrive Firmware Update" (2.1)
    2007-07-01 01:49:31 -0400: Installed "iTunes" (7.3)
    2007-07-01 01:49:35 -0400: Installed "Safari 3 Beta Update" (3.0.2)
    2007-07-01 01:53:02 -0400: Installed "Mac OS X Update (Intel)" (10.4.10)
    2007-07-03 00:30:01 -0400: Installed "Audio Update 2007-001" (1.0)
    Since then each time I restart the computer the SuperDrive Update launches and tells me no updatable devices have been found. But this machine has a SD, unless I'm very much mistaken. Why won't the update take? Is it related to the ex HD issues I've been reading about here with 10.4.10?
    I also just looked at my sys log and it could be its own novel since these updates. I was going to post it in hopes it would help the Mac guys smarter than I, but I think it would flood out this post.
    I am also having the internet drop issue, again only when I'm on battery power, but I understand that's a bigger issue than just my machine. My Safari windows seem to be hanging and giving me the spinning beach-ball a lot when I try to scroll.
    I ran disk repair on permissions, that's all sorted out. I don't know what else to do to resolve the firmware update. Please help. Thanks!

    At the risk of sounding stupid.. how would I delete the download?
    And if I have a SuperDrive, which I do, why wouldn't the update apply to me and why would Software Updater have prompted me to download it in the first place?

  • Does anyone know how to solve: "Firmware update failure. Disk write error"?

    Hi all,
    Here is the list of all what went wrong and where I am now:
    1. My Ipod worked well
    2. I wanted to update it, you know, the normal thing with Itunes
    3. Every time I tried, my computer froze. I was unable to add only one song (both automatically and manually).
    4. I took my external drive (where my music is) at work and tried again: same result.
    5. I decided to run the Updater I have on the CD that came with the Ipod.(2005-02-07; I usually avoid the newer version, having had once a problem when putting a newer version of Updater).
    6. The Updater was unable to operate any action on my Ipode (I don't remember the messages now).
    7. Like I tried what I describe here above like a hundred time. I decided to format the Ipod with Windows (My Computer, right click on the Ipod, format).
    8. It did and now I have only the famous folder with an exclamation mark on my Ipod.
    9. Now when I am running the Updater, it says it cannot Restore the factory settings giving this message "Firmware update failure. Disk write error".
    I would appreciate any help because, during the last 2 hours, I read and tried all I found on the Support Help here on the Apple web side without any result yet.
    Thank a lot for your answer

    Hi Cyrille,
    Have you looked at Knowledge Base Document #301267 on "Disk cannot be read from or written to" when syncing iPod or "Firmware update failure" error when updating or restoring iPod?

  • New Firmware update, computer much worse off

    Hi all, this is my first post, I just did the new Macbook firmware update today (November 14th), I was experiencing the problem that the update was supposed to fix, but not my Macbook is doing the problem worse (now when I flip the lid closed it won't come back from sleep), and my mouse (both trackpad and USB mouse) will only right click (no matter if I am right clicking or left clicking), I've checked the settings for my mouse and they are correct (in fact I hadn't changed them at all in the past month)
    Very irritating, anyone out there having a problem with this latest update? What should I do?

    Scratch the mouse problem (quite embarrassing) I had something sitting on my bluetooth keyboard which was out of site at the time, and it was holding the ctrl button down

  • New Firmware Update for Nokia N95 (RM-159 ) :Decem...

    Hello All,
    It looks like new firmware update is available for Nokia N95 basic model .
    Earlier Version of Firmware was : 30.0.015
    Now the latest available Firmware was : 31.0.014
    When i connected my N95 to PC using PC-Suite, it notified me about this. But when i searched the internet for change log , i found none. Is it right firmware , why Nokia didn't disclose change log, which it used to do it earlier ???
    I will wait for 2 more days for official communication from Nokia....

    Ok, so no one wants to install this firmware because theyre affraid they loose their freedom?
    Somebody should shine a light on this FW, or nokia has
    done a lot of work for nothing!
