Never update your phones software.

Guys stop updating your device software. I updated my N79 and the result was. i lost my mobile dictionary. Nokia does not provides any useful updates to its old customers. 

It is more a case of Nokia supporting older devices longer than initial licensing arrangement for third party software inclusion that sometimes causes applications to disappear in later firmware.

  • Problem Updating Your iPod Software

    I am running Windows Itunes 6.0 and Nano version 1.0
    I keep getting messages when I open Itunes saying I need to update my software and I follow all the prompts, extract files etc and then it tells me to restart my computer. I do that and nothing has changed. I am still working with the same software and it tells me I need to update.
    the Tutorial references a Updating Your iPod Software
    that never pops up for me.
    Any suggestion?

I did not get the notification in my software updates. Kindly help me with this so that i too could use the new features of windows 8.1 .please tell me how to get the update,

    In the Nokia Software Recovery Tool, what is your 7-letter code (Nokia Product Code)? No Windows computer or USB: The same code is printed on your phone. That code determines your firmware variant which determines your current version. We can check together whether you have the correct variant, only with that code.

  • How do I update from iOS 6.0.1 to iOS 7.1? As I've never updated my phone since buying from a friend and my phone won't allow me to update to iOS 8??

    How do i update my iOS 6.0.1 to iOS 7.1? As I've never updated my phone since buying from a friend and my phone won't allow me to update to iOS 8??

    An iPhone 4S can only be updated directly to iOS 8.1.2. You need to resolve the issue which prevents you from updating to it instead of attempting to install an intermediate version.

  • What is the yellow portion "other" when updating your phone on itunes? What makes up that category?

    What is the yellow portion "other" when updating your phone on itunes? What makes up that category?

    anything that's not music, photos, apps, etc. anything that is not whatever is shown next to the other on the bottom of your screen. for example, if you look on your phone at settings, general, usage and click on any of the apps it will show you how much the actual app takes up and also how much documents and data it has; that documents and data portion will be counted as other. most phones that are operating normally have around 1gb of other so if you have a lot more than that you probably have a corrupt file or something. in that case search "removing other from iphone" will help you, but usually restoring is what will fix it.

  • Update My Phone Software

    I am using 7610. I want to update my phone software or themes so that it’s look like N70 Mobile’s software. Does any one give me a solution how can I do it.

    You can't update it's software to look like an N70, that is not possible.
    You can find 10000's of themes by searching google.
    www.zedge.net also has some good themes.

  • What is the use of updating the phone software???

    hi friends ,
    i jus want to know wat is the use of updating phone software

    99% of the time to fix software bugs people have found and reported back to nokia, in other cases speed improvement, memory improvement, and overall fixes to problems that occur on your phone...
    However, sometimes updates can give you problems you never had before

  • I can NOT either back up my phone, NOR update my phone software (as it involves backing up my phone!)

    Right, it's now 13:19 pm 28/11/2012, and I've been trying since 2pm tuesday 27/11/2012 to update my software on my 9360. via the Blackberry desktop software. every time I try to update to OS7.1,
    It tells me that I have to back up my phone and go through a 4 step procedure - Backup-downlad/install-rebbot- restore.
    Now I agree to it all and click start, BUT when the backup starts, it gets so far then hangs and won't go any further, no matter how long I leave it. I've even tried the manual backup, which says it's never been done (though I know that it HAS, and the backup directory is exactly the same as the previous back was done to), and that does exactly the same thing, and gets so far in the backup, then hangs. interestingly enough, it never does it at the same point which ever way I try to back up my phone.
    To be quite honest, if I were to say that I'm totally miffed by this problem, that would be an understatement. Yet, funnily enough, I had no problem at all updating my partners Blackberry 9360, which had all the same software, and software version that mine has got. Can somebody from RIM please help.

    No...this site is a user-to-user community, not a user-to/from-RIM channel for communication nor any formal support from them. Rather, volunteers here (who are other users, just like you) can assist. But if you require formal RIM support, you must follow your contractually required formal support channel -- which begins with your carrier, your original place of purchase, or an authorized service center (it varies by region, so I can't tell you which method applies to you...but you should have received, at time of purchase/subscription, instructions as to what your formal support options are).
    OK...that out of the way!!
    This KB might apply for you:
    KB29522 "Error backing up databases" message is generated at Smart Card Options database when backing up the BlackBerry smartphone using the BlackBerry Desktop Software
    Since you did not say at which point in the backup it fails, I can't be sure if this applies or not though.
    Otherwise...
    (Credit JSanders)
    There are two methods of recovery for you to try (I think actually that method 2 will be your best bet, given your description):
    One:
    Open Blackberry Desktop Software & Connect your device with PC using USB cable, without inserting battery.
    You will get three option Retry, Update Or Cancel, then click on update.
    Once it is to the stage of the update "initializing handheld", then insert battery.
    If this does not work, and you remain stuck on the backing up the Social Feeds database, go to the second method below.
    Secondly:
    Start your BlackBerry in Safe mode.  Article ID: KB17877 How to start a BlackBerry smartphone in Safe Modehttp://www.blackberry.com/btsc/KB17877
    Connect to the BlackBerry Desktop Software and allow your handheld to connect. If you are prompted to upgrade, cancel the upgrade for later.
    IF you cannot connect or your Desktop Software does not recognize your device while in Safe Mode, please follow the directions here to force the detect:  Article ID: KB10144 How to force the detection of the BlackBerry smartphone using Application Loader
    Go to Device > delete > SELECT DATA > select to delete both the Social Feeds and Smart Card databases, and follow the remaining prompts to complete it. 
    Now, you can return and click to upgrade the device through the Desktop Manager, or reboot the BlackBerry in normal mode and continue the over the air upgrade.
    Good luck and let us know!

  • Updating Your Phone

    Hi here just a bit of advice on updating the phone for anyone having probs....this is my personal experience
    1.KEEP CHARGER PLUGGED IN!!!!!
    2.DONT USE DESKTOP CHARGER- DESKTOPS CHARGER ARE NOT A TRULY DIRECT SOURCE OF POWER IE FROM WALL OUTLET TO DESKTOP TO PHONE.....(THIS CAUSED A PROBLEM WITH A FRIENDS PHONE)
    3.IF YOU SEE THE UPLOAD APPLICATION TAKING A WHILE BEFORE IT STARTS TO INSTALL STOP IMMEDIATELY NOTE: THIS IS BEFORE IT STARTS TO ACTUALLY INSTALL!!!!!!!!!
    ii) TAKE MEMORY CARD OUT SOMETIMES UPDATE CAN CORRUPT FILES
    4.YOU WILL GET A PROMPT THAT YOU SHOULD KEEP THE CABLE CONNECTED.....THE PHONE WILL SEEMINGLY DISCONNECT IE THE PC SUITE WILL TURN GREY INSTEAD OF GREEN...DONT WORRY THIS IS JUST A FEATURE
    5.AFTER COMPLETION OF UPGRADE THE PHONE WILL REBOOT.....ALLOW THE PHONE TO DO WHAT IT HAS TO AFTER EVERYTHING IS BOOTED BACK TO THE FACTORY SETTINGS TURN OFF PHONE(DONT HIT MENU JUST SWITCH RIGHT BACK OFF)
    6.TURN ON PHONE ALLOW IT TO BOOT ONCE AGAIN TO MAIN SCREEN
    7.CHECK VERSION
    8. GO THROUGH MENU MAKE SURE ALL IS WELL
    9. YOU CAN NOW RELOAD YOUR APPS....
    QUESTIONS
    1.I have multiple phones do i need to delete nokia updater file then install for the phone i now want to update? eg update nokia n91 then delete it before i update 6682?
    2.how do i know i have the most recent firmware....will nokia tell you? for eg nokia n91 most recent is v2 i believe, is there anyway on the update section that states if it is v1/ v2? how will i know if it isnt a v3?
    if anyone has any tips please feel free to add.....

    so you phone is meant to download the file first, then process the update, to prevent such an occurrence...
    Most phones have a safe guard inbuilt into the OS which prevents large files being downloaded over mobile data, for example iOS stops you at 50MB, even when I have data I can use...

  • PC Software saying 'component update needed' every time I try to update my phone software.

    I recently downloaded the PC software and tried to update my phone but when I clicked update it said that a component of the PC software needed updated so I closed all the programmes running like it said and allowed it to update. However it has not started updating and it says 'please wait while windows configures  Blackberry software updater' and it's not doing anything else. Been waiting about an hour now.
    Just wondering if there is any way I can solve this problem. Tried re-installing program and rebooting computer but has had no effect so far.

    This was happening to me yesterday, but later in the day the update became available. You can either be patient and see if it shows up in Software Update or manually download it from here.
