Firmware update N80 with Vodafone

Well finally last night I got to upgrade my N80 to 4.0623.0.41 of the firmwear. I was so happy...........
..until I started to use my phone, pronlems and lots of em.
Themes that I have used before on my N80 and have functioned/looked as they should. Now in idle mode, have a hole in them, through to some theme I dont even have. (The area looks similar to where a picture would go if you choose one in edit theme)
I can't pair with my Mac now, this used to be one of my most reliable bluetooth connections, even though I read elsewhere people were having problems with this.
Also, until I did a firmware keypad restart, it wouldn't open themes. Well it would, but it would crash and kick me out straight away. This is fixes now.
I cold take pictures and they would not show in gallery. But there where on phone as I could explore to them.
But what a joke, I really am slowly loseing faith in Nokia, looks like I'm joining quite a few people. I thought I would never get any other phone apart from nokiaMessage Edited by stevieh590 on 14-Nov-2006

Sincerely, you think it might work cos you read somewhere it is supposed to work or it might work cos you've seen it working or at least somebody actually told you it worked?
I'm having the same problem and I've read through ALL this forum and NOWHERE I've read no whatsoever working way to solve this issue. And the fact that this is entirely Creative fault never cease to amaze me. We updated the exact way the instructions ordered and the updater killed the player.
Now I believe that there is a part of the problem that the admins still don't fully grasp, and that's the fact the the updater, any firmware updater, once the issue manifests, DO NOT see the player connected anymore. Although it is in reality connected accordin to Windows and the typical symbol of successful connection on the player. Connection that it is not useful for the updater NEVER see it anymore and the player won't go out of Recovery Mode because of the simple life fact that THERE IS NO FIRMWARE IN THE PLAYER, hence even battery recharging it is going to be an issue.
Still can't believe why they keep that updater online.

    Do firmware updates come with Software Update and installed automatically?

    Do firmware updates come with Software Update
    Yes.
    and installed automatically?
    No (at least, I can't think of one that has automatically run). Usually Software Update will download an updater that you then need to run separately. Usually the updaters will be installed to the Utilities folder ready for you to use.

  • Latest Firmware Update Issues with Screen Sensitivity

    Hi All,
    I synced my original iphone a few days ago and it required a firmware update. Since then, I have had numerous problems with the touchscreen for email and texting. Sometimes, I cannot open a folder on one of my emails or send a text because hitting the "send" icon does nothing. I've restarted my phone and reset it but have not yet tried a restore. Had anyone else had these issues?
    And do you have any other suggestions I should try before doing a restore? Many thanks.
    Kathy

    Do not know about its compatibility and functionality.. but if you are OK with Beta softwares.. you may have a look at..

  • HT204032 is this firmware update compatible with Lion?

    I have set my MacBook Air to dual boot Lion and Mountain Lion, is this firmware update (MacBook Air SMC firmware update 1.6) compatible with Lion?  So if I boot the MacBook into Mountain Lion, accept the firmware update, and then boot into Lion will I have any problems?

    Thanks for the responses, but they really don't get me any further because they don't contain anything that I couldn't have inferred myself. I've been developing software for nearly thirty years and just because Lion won't be using this particular feature doesn't mean the change won't break something else.
    What I really need is an assurance from Apple that this update has been fully tested on Lion.
    I don't have a compelling need for this Power Nap feature so I won't install this update for the moment, unless Apple issues the assurance.

  • Firmware update problem with raid mirrored drives and solution

    Note this - the firmware update will not install from a software mirrored boot drive. It will install just fine from a non-mirrored clone. So, make a clone, set it as your boot drive from system preferences, and all is good.

    Well this is a pain, this is what I figured I would have to do but c'mon apple, I am sure people are not going want to hassle with making a clone, finding or buying a single drive to install the OS to, boot that drive, install the firmware patch, reboot, make sure it took, tear down the system, swap the soft-RAID set of drives back in etc. etc. etc.
    This is another reason why Apple need to take note from the PC world, I know they like to "Think Different" when it comes to things like this but they really need to give access to and write a driver for the supported on-chip hardware RAID controller located in the Motherboards Southbridge chip of THIS motherboard, just like all other woodcrest Xeon based systems running the same intel motherboard chipset!
    I am sure this post will get me a long list of flames from the Apple fanboys explaining how what Apple is doing is really better, or telling me that if I want hardware RAID 5 to just go and buy $6000 xServe RAID setup.
    Well I better quit typing so I can tear apart my system, find a hard drive to install OSX on.....See you guys in a few hours

  • Firmware update messed with airport.

    After downloading firmware update my airport wont work.
    any ideas???
    thanx in advance

    I reset the Airport Router. I downloaded a new Airport Utility. Airport bars come up, but Airport light is flashing amber. When I opened the Utility, it did find the router (whereas before there was no router). I went through the Utility and when it came to "update" I click on continue. Error!!!! Airport lost again.
    I reset Airport Router again. Went through Utility but did not update. I know have internet on both computers (had to go through same thing on laptop, but did not click on continue update. Learned my lesson there. I do believe that the problem with the firmware update is the Utility Update. Don't click on continue, wait for Apple to fix it.

  • Firmware update ends with 3256 error

    os many times tried to download 4.3.3 firmware updtes so many times it failed

    Hi,  I have had the same problem with my ipod 4 and my daughters ipod 3.  Some of the other threads suggest you need to turn off your firewall which I did but still ahd the same problem so I also teuned off the antispam and antivirus protection (this is using ESET security SW) and the download and install worked.  The settings may be different on your security SW but you need to temporarily turn off the file system protection as well as the firewall in order for the install to work.  Don't forget to turn it all back on when you've done.  Not sure why you have to go through this pain but ... it seems to work.  Good luck.

  • Unable to install Firmware update 1.3

    I downloaded MacBook Pro EFI Firmware Update 1.3 and followed the instructions by shutting down the computer, then holding the power button until the light flashes on the front of the computer. I then release it, hear a long, loud tone and then the computer boots up normally without installing the firmware.
    Apparently, under the Apple logo during bootup there's supposed to be a status indicator, but it has never appeared. I've tried several times, all with the same result. What am I doing wrong?

    Okay, figured it out. I had to delete this new firmware update along with all the previous firmware updates from applications/utilities and then re-download the 1.3 update and install it. Hope that helps if someone else has the same problem.

  • Programmer's button  and firmware update

    This issue is of more general nature, at least B&Ws use similar procedure, maybe all newer Macs. An OS 9 program (firmware updater), a separate firmware image, shutting down, pressing programmer's button... I would really like to understand the mechanism.
    What happens when I push the programmers button? Is it just for opening the flash for writing?
    Why did my iMac G3 SL chime after the beep and before the progress bar?
    Where does the firmware updater place itself and the firmware image and how does open firmware find them? Would it be possible to place them there on another computer? Why is there a requirement that the boot disk is writable? I guess this makes it impossible to build a bootable CD that could make the update?
    Is it really the firmware updater that writes the new firmware into the flash? Not some ROM routine?
    How does the firmware updater decide its behaviour? When first run inside the OS it initiates the upgrade, then after pushing the programmer's button it does the real job, and when rebooting again it shows the result.
    Why did Apple not make a version for OS X?

    Have you tried connecting an external monitor to the computer with the black screen? That will sometimes work. Some people have managed to run the firmware update, even with a black screen, by being in a completely darkened room and being able to see just enough on the screen to run the update.
    There are lots of tricks for getting firmware installed here.
    Below is an excerpt regarding dealing with the blank screen issue:
    39. If your iMac is booting up but you can't get a screen display then you have a few options to consider:
    40. Some people have managed to do a "blind" firmware update. First of all it will be necessary to update the iMac's OS to 9.1 (unless you already have this or a later version of OS 9 installed) and get the firmware updater onto the HD.
    41. There are different ways of doing this - e.g. take the HD out and put it into another Mac (Donna's note- to avoid a common confusion, please be aware that firmware does not "reside" on the HD at all, even though it needs to be run from the HD. For example, once your firmware has been updated, you can put a new hard drive into that iMac without needing to update the firmware again. However, this drive swapping may be a way to get the updater onto the drive and then put the drive back into the iMac and try to install the update - if that makes any sense); or if file sharing is on then you might be able to access the iMac's HD remotely for updating the OS and copying the firmware updater over; or you could try starting the problematic iMac in "FireWire target disk" mode. This allows you to connect to another Mac using a FireWire cable and have the iMac's HD appear as an external disk on the other Mac, allowing you to install OS 9.1 and copy the firmware updater over. You may also find this article helpful: Macintosh: Computer Does Not Enter Into FireWire Target Disk Mode.
    42. If you have access to software such as Timbuktu for remotely controlling another machine then this would be a convenient way of seeing the screen of and controlling the problematic iMac.
    43. If you really have no way of getting a screen display, then try putting the unpacked firmware updater in the Startup Items folder (contrary to the advice above in para. 35). Then when you boot OS 9.1 (or higher), the updater will automatically start. You will need to dismiss 2 (?) dialogs by pressing <Return>: the first is a licence agreement, and the second is the dialog to shut the iMac down. You will have to use your skill and judgement in determining when the iMac is ready for you to press Enter each time! Once the iMac has shut itself down in preparation for the firmware update you can proceed as per the published instructions.

  • Trackpad Firmware Update 1.0 Freezes / Hangs

    I had a brand new MacBook out of the box a day ago. The only thing attached to it was the power cord. After a fresh setup for a new user a number of Apple software updates were found and I agreed to install them. Upon the first reboot the Trackpad Firmware Update application started up automatically. A gray box appeared with a warning not to interrupt or shut the power off to the Mac. I clicked "update" and the status bar started moving (no other applications had been opened). It got to about 95% done and hung. A one inch thick line of dark gray appeared to cover the top edge of the screen (it was translucent so I could still see through it).
    I left the computer alone for 10 minutes because I was warned not to interrupt or shut the power off during the firmware update. With great reluctance I eventually pushed and held down the power button (there was no possible way to "Force Quit Applications" and the computer appeared completely hung).
    After powering back up the machine the Trackpad Firmware Update application says the firmware is up-to-date and the trackpad appears to work. So it appears all is good. My questions are:
    1) Is anyone else having this issue?
    2) It is quite concerning to see a firmware update hang. Is it possible, or even advisable, to redo the update? The updater application won't allow it because the firmware is supposedly "up-to-date" but clearly there was an issue with it completing properly.
    3) Can anyone explain what happened?
    I have noticed people having other problems with the update but only a few talk about it freezing up or hanging up during the update itself.

    Seems like some others have had this issue as well but certainly not everyone. I found the following:

    There is an article on "recovering from an interrupted trackpad firmware update" here http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3312 but it seems to say you should be able to try updating again. When I relaunch the updater it says the firmware is up to date even though it never appeared to complete before I had to force a shut down. Hopefully a newer version is released sometime that doesn't freeze the system when installing.

  • Need advice RE: Firmware update

    Hi all,
    Need a little advice. My daughter came home from school with her macbook Core2 mid 2007.
    She seems to have installed the EFI update but it keeps showing up in SU when ran. I can only assume she did not follow the instructions to complete the update on reboot. It shows three separate installs in the Software Update Application preferences and the update utility is in her apps folder. How should I proceed? Should I just launch the update.app and go from there or re-download and install the firmware from apple?
    Thanks

    I think what happened is when SU would check for updates she would just click "install all" and then do a normal reboot instead or running the updater.app utility. The updater was most likely closed when she clicked "restart". SU preference showed three different cases of her installing the firmware update along with numerous other updates including 10.4.11 and all appear to have taken. But System Profiler shows the boot ROM has not been updated to the most current one. Thus it kept coming up every 2 weeks. She is a little unclear as to what she did after the updates. So my best bet is to assume it was downloaded and installed and for me to run the FirmwareUpdater.app in the utilities folder now to make the change, is that correct?
    Thanks,
    Frank
