Help firmware upgrade for N95-classic

Hi everyone,
I have been reading some posts on different forums for few days now and I am getting confused little bit.
My first consern is do I need to format my N95 phone memory to be able to perform clean installation of firmware. 
My Nokia N95 has very old firmware v12.0.013 19-06-07 RM-159 Nokia N95 (66.01) and it freezes from time to time which means that I cannot do anything for certain amount of time and I can see Nokia logo on my display. It starts to work after but I tired of waiting for this phone to unfreeze. There is one more problem which I have. I have Garmin mobile XT installed while ago and I am unable to uninstall it. I comes up with error message "Removing Failed" I do not want to drag all this problems back to new firmware. I am IT support so as far as I know the save way of rebuilding for any operating system is to format a drive before you do it. I do not like upgrades which may keep prevous faults.
I have found all necessary guids for update but I am not sure should I somehow clearup everything from its memory and then perform clean firmware installation via NSU.
Then I am going to use new NSU to install a new fresh firmware. 
In case that my phone stop to work I can use 3,*,call (green icon) and hold it. Then turn phone on and release 3 buttons when I get prompt for security code which is 12345 (as I didn't change it).
Can you guys tell me did I miss anything. 
Do I need to whipe out old firmware before new one is installed? If I do please advise how? I just wanted to add that I have made backup using Nokia PC suit already.
Also if there is something what I didn't say in here please advise am I going to install firmware right?
P.S. 
Sorry for my english it is not my native language.

We have edited your post on the subject of debranding. This is an unauthorised procedure which invalidates the warranty of a Nokia device and so we don't allow it to be discussed on an official Nokia forum.

Hi CuriousDragon
Firstly to utilize Nokia Software Updater your N95 should always be in "PC Suite" mode, which is the default mode setting as screenshot below. 
You haven't yet mentioned what version of Windows you are using on your PC, but I may be wrong here.
It might be an idea to try out the Beta version of Software Updater available in Nokia Beta Labs here as said to handle USB connections more adroitly: http://betalabs.nokia.com/apps/nokia-software-updater
If your N95 is not behaving as expected I still wonder whether you should reset by carrying out *#7370# followed by device lockcode on request prior to update procedure to restore device to "out of the box" condition.
Happy to have helped forum in a small way with a Support Ratio = 37.0

  • Firmware upgrade for Officejet 4500 G510n-z

    Please. i need the firmware upgrade for Officejet 4500 G510n-z or at the original firmware. my machine is acting uncommon. The paper feeder process start and page stop in the middle.
    thanks for all your help.
    Regards;
    Carlos Peguero

    Yes, there should have been either a firmware update/patch, or a full recall on this device. 
    The software setup and configuration is bad enough for one humble computer, but when used as
    intended with multiple devices it's an absolute headache. 
    I am constantly having to unplug the printer because the machine has decided it needs to rest for a bit. Okay,
    everybody deserves a break now and then. But it goes into coma mode and I could be jesus himself and the power
    or any other button) still would not wake it. 
    I would get into the rest but I'm not getting a helpful vibe from the forum; it's more defensive of a product which, apparently just under 5000 people have come by to check on. My friend at Microsoft talked to an HP engineer, who
    laughed and gave us the fix. 
    Uploading to FedEx-Kinko's is the better option.

  • Firmware upgrade for Nokia 6280

    I would like to know do we have firmware upgrade for Nokia 6280 as my present one is 3.65 and would like to upgrade it to 5.92 and I am in India
    Could you please help me out.

    updating to new firmware depends on product code which represents your region of purchasing, language pack and if it's branded or not .... so NOKIA releases firmwares and release it for every product code depending on mentioned points
    you can check for updates @ :
    http://mea.nokia.com/support/download-software/device-software-update/can-i-update
    To find what the latest available device software is, you’ll need your device’s product code. The code is printed on the white label beneath the battery (e.g. CODE: 0520001).
    if your phone is branded with an operator, that means that you should go to the operator care center and ask them, not NOKIA
    some updates delay in some countries variant product code, as it requires more effort to add language pack to it like "example. China Japan Korea" or it needs the country to approve it due to its policy

  • Firmware upgrade for Westell UltraLine Series3 A90-9100EM15-10 ?

    I'm wanting to check for/download install a firmware upgrade for my Westell UltraLine Series3 A90-9100EM15-10.
    It's currently running
    Software Version:     1.02.00.04
    Release Date:     Aug 28 2008
    I'm hoping there's an upgrade available that fixes the HDMI Handshake/dropout problem?
    Anyway, the screen I'm taken to after clicking "upgrade" in the router's management UI says :
    Check every xx hours at URL _______
    The field after "at URL" is not populated.
    If I click "check now" I get:
    "URL must be in the format: protocol://userassword@hostort/path where protocol is one of http, https, ftp or tftp. Either user or password, or both, may be left out. The port number is also optional."
    Was that URL field supposed to be populated by the tech who installed the FIOS?
    Where can I find that URL so I can paste it in and get my firmware updates?

    Nevermind.  I've found it.  The link to 1.03.00.08 firmware is http://download.verizon.net/webdownload/firmware/upgrades/westell_router_9100em/A90-9100EM15-10-1.03...

  • PlaysForSure Firmware upgrade for Zen Nano/Nano P

    i think that it would be absolutely awesome if us nano/nano plus owners could listen to the suscription service music like Yahoo Music Unlimited and Napster to go. I want creative to come out with a firmware upgrade for the nano to make this possible. If you want this firmware upgrade, please sign.

    There may be hardware limits that prevent these players from using subscription music, such as a secure realtime clock. Also this petition could probably be extended for all the flash players (whether capable or not).
    But remember the Xtra and Touch got PFS support and I dont think they were designed with a secure clock in them.... so based on that flash players <i>could</i> have PFS support

  • Will the Software Update to 10.4.7 install firmware upgrade for SuperDrive?

    Will the Software Update to 10.4.7 install firmware upgrade for a SuperDrive?
    I have a Mac mini and I've just let the Software Update run as needed, but I am confused by the number of Apple update downloads listed.
    I don't believe I need them, when I just use Software Update?
    Seems like a simple question, but I was on Windows for the last 10 years.

    This is the long-awaited Zen Xtra firmware upgrade; all current discussion about it is in the sticky at the top of this forum. (Per their policy, the moderators will eventually lock this thread in favor of the sticky.)
    SSR, the top poster on this board (and an expert on Creative players), has an email list on his own website for new Creative player downloads: http://www.stainlesssteelrat.net/njb.htm . Though it's not specific to any one player, you can be sure the Zen Xtra firmware upgrade for MTP/Janus (the technology behind Napster To Go) will be announced there when it's available. (And it works, too: I just got word of the new Audible firmware for my Zen Micro thru that list.)Message Edited by RBBrittain on 09-8-2005 04:07 PM

    Is there going to be a firmware upgrade for mountain lion customers that have a Macbook with a soild state drive so we can use the Power Nap feature?

    here: http://www.apple.com/osx/whats-new/
    "Power Nap requires a Mac notebook with built-in flash storage. May require a firmware update."
    We have to wait for the Firmware-Updates. Some are already here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5394
    And I am shure, that you will need for Power Nap one of the newer Macs with SSD from 2011 and 2012.
