N96 Firmware v12 - Availability

Hi discussionists ,
I have an Australian Nokia N96 with v11.018. I want to update to v12 since it came out but my phone version (phone code) doesn't support it yet.
Will it ever be able to update?
Will a new version come out soon that allows me to update?
The lag on my phone is driving me crazy.
Thanks!!

Two points here.
Unlocked and locked is not the issue here. The issue is operator branding. A phone can be branded and unlocked.
Secondly, CPW seem to have their own product codes for phones, which means that updates for phones bought off them are just as late as if the phones were operator-branded.
If you want a generic phone with early access to updates then CPW is not the answer.

N96 Firmware v12

Has anyone updated to this firmware yet in the UK and if so has it finally sorted the WiFi bug ppl have been having with the Sky/Netgear broadband router x

The Sky/Netgear bug is a bug in the router's firmware rather than in the phone.
This said, I have noticed a marked improvement in WLAN connectivity on my N96 (connecting to a generic Netgear wireless access point) since I updated to V12.
There are other improvements that mean it's worth updating anyway even if it doesn't solve your Sky broadband problem.

N96 firmware updats on a Mac or Windows 7?

Iv got firmware v12 and would like to update the firmware to v30 on my N96, touble is there seems to be no support to do this on a mac or windows 7???
I even installed a virtual xp os on both systems, but in both cases the phone is detected and works fine running PC Suite......but in both it fails to detect the N96 when running the nokia updater?
also using the phones upade option though *#0000# fails as it says no updates avalable from Nokia.

Have you checked that v30 is available for your product code, http://www.nokia.co.uk/get-support-and-software/download-software/device-software-update/can-i-updat...
I've heard that some people have managed to get NSU working under Win7, there are a few threads in the SW updates section if you want to search
You could also take the phone to a nokia care point and have them do the update

N97 firmware not available to everyone

Hello,
If there are some nokia officials around .... please forward this to your decision makers!
Nokia announced the v12 firmware availability:
<http://europe.nokia.com/get-support-and-software/download-software/device-software-update/news>
I own a nokia n97 - RM505 model and I was a long time nokia phone user. The n97 was my last phone that I ever bought from nokia! The way Nokia makes their firmware available is unacceptable. The n97 is unstable with the v11 firmware and I, as an n97 user think I should be able to update the firmware whenever a new firmware is available.
I encourage every disatified Nokia to do the same and not buy their products anymore. I'm 1 user, but the sum of the one users make the difference! This firmware policy is simply unacceptable for me!
One lost customer!

Branding means when someone (a telco typically) does some customization so that the phone software is "special" to them. E.g. it could be that some special logo is displayed as the phone starts up, or shuts down, or there are some extra programs, extra features. Sometimes, features are removed, so that customers cannot use the phone for something that could be detrimental to the telco's revenue (e.g. to disallow VOIP features from working over the GPRS/HSDPA network). These branded phones are bought through telcos, possibly subsidized, possibly tied to a phone contract, etc. But it might also be possible that you could buy an unbranded phone from telcos.
Note that this is not the same as SIM-locked phones. Phones that are SIM locked means that you can only use the phone with that telco's SIM card. Phones that are not SIM-locked (i.e. SIM free) can still be branded.

I was in a Vodafone highstreet shop yesterday (28th) and i asked the chap behind the counter if he knew anything about when the next software update is likely to be released. He said that it will be released in the next two weeks! Now, I don't know if he was referring to v12 or the new v2 due out in October (and I am not sure that he knew himself) but the staff have clearly been given some information from above. I checked that he meant software that had been approved by Vodafone and he confirmed that.
Watch this space I suppose and lets hope he was referring to v2...
My situation is that my Ovi Suite 2 Beta is still telling me that an update is available but when I connect via USB I am kindly told that it cannot download the software because I have unregistered software on my phone (which I do not). I have 0585262 also.

How can I tell when the NEW firmware is available ?

Although the firmware became available for the 'z2 tablet' very quickly - nothing has appeared for the phone (UK - SIM free).
I have tried the update several times (with my PC) & am just told 'up to date'....
I remember with the 'xperia s' I had to check a code (on a sticker inside the rear of the phone) to tell when it was available for me - how do I do this with the Z2 ?

Unfortunately we are unable to confirm specific date for any particular firmware release due to the nature of the approval process.. For further information regarding the approval process please see here.

N96 - Firmware 30.0.33 Changelog? Anyone?

Where can I find the N96 firmware 30.0.33 changelog?

changelogs contain the changes made from previous firmware versions to the new firmware version updates. however, these are considered confidential information by Nokia and are not released into the public domain. your best bet is to read up on users subjective experiences by Googling for the firmware changes/improvements/bug fixes etc.
please throw some kudos our way, it would mean a lot to us
If you found this or someone's comments helpful or like what that person has to say, please give some Kudos to their post!

New Nokia N80 Firmware update available via NSU (v...

There is a new N80 Firmware Update Available --> version 5.0725.0.1 APAC !! Product Code: 0527591
Waiting for EMEA firmware!
Nokia 5320 XM Red v4.13

The software version is dependent on the product code, so if you are told that you have the no update is available then you have the latest SW version for your product code.
Apart from the fact that product codes are usually unique to a country (and in some cases to a network operator), you shouldn't have any issues regarding your region.

GE 31591GE1: new firmware version available (v22.3...

Hi! There is a new firmware version available for my GE 31591GE1 (version 22.37). I'm currently running ver. 14.37 but before upgrading it I wanted to ask if anybody had upgraded to the new version and if there were any noticeable benefits or drawbacks.

Well, my GE 31591GE1 keeps working just fine although still shows that message about available update. Anybody running firmware version 22.3 that would like to comment on this?

Mfe not working proper on N96 firmware v30

Dear Sir,
i have changed my phone from nokia n95 to nokia n96,
firmware version 30.x.
Mfe doesn't work with charm here.
I have attached log file for your further help.
I have to uninstall it and reinstall it every.
Mail For Exchange Error -15032 is one of the errors.
Hope to hear very positive from you.

I think the only thing you can try now is a hard reset. Unfortunately it means that all the data in your phone's internal memory (C: drive) is lost, so unless you've done a backup recently...
With the phone switched off, press simultaneously the 3, * and green 'call' buttons. Keep them pressed in and switch the phone on. Do not release them until you see signs of life such as the Nokia logo or the region selection screen.
It may take somewhat flexible fingers and more than one attempt to do this.
If it doesn't solve the problem then your only course of action is to take your phone in to your local Nokia Care Point.

N96 (firmware 30.33 ,lastest version) BT connectio...

Hi, I got one problem with my N96(firmware 30.33 ,lastest version) with NOKIA headset BH-904. In the first week, there was NO any problem in BT connection. After that, my N96 would cut off BT connection with BH-904 every time about 3 seconds right after recognize & connect. My N96 is able to connect other BT headset. My BH-904 is also able to connect other cell phone. It seems to be a N96 BT compatibility problem !!!!! Can any NOKIA guys fix it ???

Dear friends,
I'm not a real technology expert - but guess what. I bought BH-904 and used it succesfully about 1.5 weeks with E71. No problems at all. But then BH-904 just disconnected. And then never were able to connect more than 30 seconds with E71. Just like that.
Nothing helps: Resetting or charging the BH-904, deleting all BT pairs in E71, factory reset of the E71, uploading the latest firmware on E71, resetting and building all the settings from scratch. Always the same result - BH-904 connects to the E71 and disconnects in 2...30 seconds. Always the same.
If connecting to a new(another phone, seems to stay connected longer time - but no experience whethet the same happens in one week.
E71 works fine with BT with a computer. Worked one year with BH-900.
I had no other option than return the BH-904 for repair.
Rgrds, Henrik

Still no firmware update available for E71 RM-346

According to Nokia (http://europe.nokia.com/A4577225), there should be a firmware update available for the E71 (update from version 100.07.76 to 110.07.127.
I checked my product code (0569803) on http://europe.nokia.com/A4577224 "Can I update my Nokia device software?" and it tells me, that there is no update available:
"Latest available software for Nokia E71, product code 0569803
Version: 100.07.76" (> same firmware version which I currently have on my phone.)
Does anybody know, when there will be a firmware update available for the E71 with product code 0569803?

Firmware update available for 6230?

Hi,
new to this so sorry if its all been said before.
I have a 6230 that I am loathe to get rid of, its a good phone, I wondered if there was a firmware update available for my current phone and how much Nokia charge for updating it as it is out of warranty.
Any help/advice would be most appreciated.
Current Nokia software version:
V 05.24
25-11-04
RH-12
GSM P1.1
C

The issues with the 6233 in a carkit are well publicised within these forums, I'll just give you a brief rundown.
No 'lights on always' option, some say this is because of some EU directive, however it is rumoured that the 6233 is prone to screen burn. Either way it's a downright danger at night because your eyes down have time to adjust to the brightness when someone calls you or if you chose to make a call.
You cannot record your own voicetags, an automatic voicetag system is in place for all contacts meaning for example instead of recording your own tag for the contact 'John A Mobile' as 'John', you'll have to say 'John A Mobile' and hope the 6233 understands you and doesn't either give you a list or pick the wrong contact altogether.
Key 2 is now reserved for the video mailbox, so you cannot assign it as a speed dial key.
Ring/Alert tones set at level 5 (maximum) do not ringout at full blast at first, they ascend. Not really an issue with a carkit, just annoys me as I can barely hear the SMS tone.
Apart from all the above, I find the 6233 really good for texting and as a 3g bluetooth modem.
If I had the choice again I'd either stick with the 6230 or put the money towards an offline 6230i for the slightly larger screen and because you don't have to change the cradle.
First use the search to see if your question has already been answered...
Secondly I will not knowingly assist in breaking the forum rules.
My information is always changing, what I post at the time is usually true.
