NOKIA - 5310 NEEDS FIRMWARE UPDATE!

PLEASE see this post:
/discussions/board/message?board.id=imaging&message.id=2781&jump=true#M2781
Also when is the update software going to quit telling people that the server is unavailable and to try again later?
This is really getting annoying, makes one feel like there are problems that need to be resolved, either with a software fix or server issues...

I HIT THE SOLUTION BY ACCIDENT, THERE IS NOTHING SOLVED YET!
I just got a reply from Tech support via email, seems like they don't know their own phones, sheesh, telling me you can adjust the time for it.
SORRY NOKIA THERE ARE NO TIME ADJUSTMENTS!
Thank you for e-mailing the Nokia Care Contact Center.
I apologize for the delay in responding to your e-mail message and greatly appreciate your patience.
What I would recommend is to adjust the Sleep Mode time in your device, that will allow you to use the applications without the screen dimming or going into idle mode, keep in mind the longer the display screen is on the faster the battery will lose power.
I have provided the steps for you to adjust the Sleep Mode time in your device below;
-Select Menu
-Settings
-Display
-Select Sleep Mode (adjust the time to your liking)
You can also adjust the Power Saver in your device in case it is not the sleep mode that’s coming on first; I have provided those steps below as well.
-Select Menu
-Settings
-Display
-Select Power Saver (adjust the time)
If you have any additional questions, please contact us. To ensure proper handling, please continue to use the current subject line.
Thank you for choosing Nokia for your mobile needs.

Nokia 5310 problems/firmware/updates????

right people after buying my nokia 5310 a week ago i have changed it twice, first time the camera did not work, 2nd time the phone kept restarting whilst listening to music. Now i have a 3rd nokia 5310 and it has restarted twice whilst listening to music, it has also crashed whilst recieving a missed call. After doing research i understand there may be a new version of firmware available (v 3.63) does anybody know where to find the version as this may fix the problems???? i have also read that it is a mp3 codec problem that causes the phone to restart so we should change them to mp4s using nokia pc suite this has fixed the problem for most people with nokia 5310s. IF ANYBODY HAS V 3.63 OR KNOWS WHERE TO DOWNLOAD IT COULD YOU LET US KNOW PLEASEEEEEEEEE!!!!! THANX
P.S your thoughts please anyone

Nokia 3120 classic firmware update problem

Hello!
I tried updating my Nokia 3120 Classic with Nokia Software Updater, and I I've got some problems. When I connect my phone to the computer Software Updater detects it, and everything seems to be OK, but when i want to install the update (or as in this case re-instal it, beacause I've got the newest firmware version) the program returns errors.
The 'download' step is OK, Software Updater downloads the updates, and when it comes to installing after few seconds I get "update failed, to have the best connection connect your phone to the PC without USB hub..." (i've got polish version of software updater, so that's how I translate it into english).
The thing is, that I've got the best connection! The device is connected to computer via CA-101D cable! I don't know what is wrong, I used to update my Nokia N95, Nokia N82 and second N95, and everythink worked great, but then the new version of Nokia Software Updater appeared, and I can't update this old 3120 : /
I need to update it, help me!
(sorry for my english, I'm from Poland )

Hi scarlet_213, download Nokia Ovi Suite and install it to your computer. Then follow the steps and upgrade your phone. If there is no update available for your phone, this could be due to a number of factors which are outlined in the following articles written by one of our senior users Grischnon: http://techyoddsandends.blogspot.com/ and http://linux.sgms-centre.com/nokiafaq/branded-phones/
The latest firmware version for unbranded handsets for the 3120 Classic is 10.00. Let us know how it goes.
If you found this or someone's comments helpful or like what that person has to say, please give some Kudos to their post!

Nokia 5310 XM - firmware 7.01 ?

Hi,
I've seen in NSU that the firmware 7.01 is available since end of June 2008 for Nokia 5310 XM (RM-303).
However, all the product codes for this phone do not have this update available in the NSU (ex: product code 0564420 = EURO all black unbranded model).
My questions:
- 1. Does someone know the changes of the version 7.01 compared to version 5.81 ?
- 2. Why this update is not available for all the unbranded models ? Whatever the reason is, I really do not understand why the update is not available for all the unbranded models more than a month after its initial publication...
Big thanks in advance for your answers
Solved!
Go to Solution.

first, the 7.01 firmware has no big, noticeble differences.it seems faster thou.
and about why it is not available for all the models even unbranded...well, only nokia knows.
personally i never wait for that
start searching for alternatives.
good luck!
Make it count!

Nokia C3-00 Firmware Updating issue

I am trying to update my Nokia C3 from V 4.45 to V 7.20 through nokia software updater. After 10 min remaining timer shown, I get an error message "Software update failed. For optimum connectivity, your USB cable should be...". I tried updating on desktop and laptop too but it gives me same error. Any idea how to resolve this issue?

Hello nokia, i am very much dissapointed by updating my nokia C3-00 firmware version from v4.65 to v07.20. In previous update of v4.65(which was my first update) everything was working great, but now after updating to v07.20 it shows so many bugs. Even the apps don't run at all, and displays 'application error' all the time. Bottom line - I request to nokia software engineers to take some sudden action and please provide us ( nokia lovers and believers) a new bugs free firmware for c3-00 as soon as possible. Thanks

4GB upgrade now needs Firmware update - how?

Just updated my 15' Macbook Pro unibody (bought early 2009 - so maybe late 2008 model?) 2.4Ghz.
My MBP now seems slow? even though the RAM seems to be recognised (from Crucial) as :
4GB 1067 MHz DDR3
I spoke to cruical about the memory and they said that sometimes it may need a "Firmware update" after installing RAM?? - Can anyone give me steps on what or how this is done?? is it under 'software update'?
I am still on 10.5.8, and thinking of backing up and re-installing a full 10.6.4 and moving up to Snow Leopard.
Would this cure it, and maybe update the firmware in the same instance?
Thanks for any help!

Poor computer performance is one of the symptoms of bad RAM, a great first step is to run the end-user diagnostic called the Apple Hardware Test (AHT), as detailed in your MacBook Pro manual, and also by removing the RAM and checking performance when running the laptop with the RAM supplied by Apple.

Firmware for the MacBook Pro is obtained via software update or by download from the Apple Support Website.

Moving to Snow Leopard is a good move generally, but it won't solve a hardware issue such as bad RAM.
Would this cure it, and maybe update the firmware in the same instance?
It is always advisable to run the latest version of OS X and firmware on your Mac.

Nokia 5310 new firmware battery

Hi
I used to have a Nokia 5310 with the firmware version 9.42.
Later, I bought a Nokia 5310 to a friend, but this one has the version 10.10.
The battery from my older Nokia last much much less in this one. In the older phone it lasted for like 2 days, in the new one with the new firmware it lasts like 10 hours. Is this because of the recent firmware?
Can I fix this? How do I?

Yes. Confirmed via NSU.

Seems I need firmware update but it doesn't start

MacBook Pro 17"
Intel Core 2 Duo 2.8 GHz
Version Boot ROM: MBP52.008E.B05
Version SMC: 1.42f4
Apple SSD TS128A 128Gb, Revision: AGAB0202
I always experienced short gaps in responsiveness of my laptop, problably due to SSDrive, but that never annoyed me.
Than this gaps became more and more long, especially after laptop wakes up and now are annoying.
So I searched for a firmware update and, according to the scheme reported at http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1237? ,
I found my laptot can accept EFI 1.8 Firmware update. But downloaded and launched it my MacBook reports that it doesn't need that upgrade and so all other intermediate Firmware updates for MacBook Pro (EFI 1.6 and 1.7). I connected my Mac to mains, closed all application and downloaded all with Safari 5.0.5. So what was wrong?
Incidentally in that scheme my MacBook is indicated as "early 2009", elsewhere as "mid 2009".
Apart from firmware upgrades, what can I do to solve that gaps? Thank you,
Antonello

See if you can boot into safe mode by holding down the shift key immediately after pressing the start button. Keep holding the shift key till a loading progress bar appears on the lower part of the screen. It will take a lot longer than normal to start this way. If you have Lion 10.7 installed you can try holding command-R keys to get intto recovery mode and run disk utility.
If you want some great tips on trouble shooting go to this link to frequent poster ds store's page.

Severe issues with new iMac. Do I need firmware update?

I purchased a new iMac at the end of September 2007. It still had Tiger on it and ran fine. I upgraded to Leopard at it's release and have had some problems ever since BUT THEY ARE GETTING WORSE.
I did a complete erase and install this past weekend but problems remain. I have to do a force shutdown with the power button sometimes and then things run slowly. I use Disk Warrior and rebuild the drive and also repair permissions and things seem to run fine for awhile. THEN the problems start again.
I know there is to be a Leopard update soon. Should I wait and see if that solves the issues? I also know there was a firmware update for the new iMac in the fall. When I did my erase and re-install this past weekend, I didn't do that update UNLESS it's already in the 10.5.1 update. Should I do it now?
I also recently got a LaCie 250 gig firewire hard drive. Sometimes it does not mount; but I've ran Disk Warrior and repaired permission on it also and no errors are reported. (I also have a 60 gb FireLite. It did not mount once; but mostly it's the LaCie that fails to mount ... but not always. 75% of the time it mounts fine.)
I just don't know what the problem is. I am very frustrated. I have NEVER had trouble like this with a Mac in all the years I've had one. I know one things for sure. I will NEVER again buy a new machine or operating system until they've been out at least six months
Any knowledgeable suggestions are much appreciated. Thanks so much.

My problems are: 1)Sometimies when I try to restart the computer, I get either a spinning beach ball or a blue screen and nothing else. OR sometimes it does re-start but keeps the other spinning circular thingie going. In either case, I have to push the power button for a few secons causing it to shut down hard. On the other hand, sometimes it behaves normally.
Other problems include slowness, such as finder windows opening very slowly or files showing up in finder windows very slowly.
I don't notice that this happens with any particular program. It seems sporadic. Sometimes the computer runs fine and then all of a sudden, the issues reappear.
I have used Disk Utility, Disk Warrior, repaired permission, etc. All the programs report that the discs are fine (the internal disc, the LaCie drive and the FireLite drive.) I did a complete erase and re-install. I have not used a hardware test disc. (I suppose there is one with the original restore discs; but I am using Leopard now so I'm not sure how that works. That was Tiger.)
I have suspected a lot of things. I stopped iDisk automatic mounting & syncing. I stopped syncing altogther. I've turned off Spaces and Time Machine. I don't let any programs load automatically except the bare minimum. I'm just very frustrated.
I did hear there was a firmware update in early November but 10.5.1 was released after that; and I have done all the software updates so I don't know if I need to do the firmware update. (This machine is one of the new thin aluminum iMacs introduced in August. I got mine in September.)

Nokia C3-00 Firmware Update 8.63!!!! DON'T UPDATE!...

Is anyone else having problems with it?
I've just sent Nokia this email:
"Hello,
I have had the Nokia C3-00 since January 2011 and to be quite honest I am very disappointed. The phone cost me £80 and I thought for that £80 I would be getting a very decent model. There's nothing wrong with the actual phone itself, more the firmware that Nokia has decided to put on it.
I first bought the phone with firmware version 4.XX and then updated it via the Ovi Pc Suite to 7.20, I then noticed some problems with this firmware and waited and waited for Nokia to produce a firmware update. It took 7 months for you to develop and release another; 8.63.
I've had this firmware installed for less than an hour and I'm already regretting installing it (exactly the same way I felt about updating to 7.20) I'd like to know what benefits the latest firmware actually gives me? So far I've found the following that don't work:
- Can't delete messages.
- Mail stops at loading screen.
- Ovi Store won't work. (Conflicting applications)
I've tried turning the phone off and on again, Factory resetting the phone but nothing seems to work.
On the other hand though, you managed to get rid of the duplicate "Communities" icon. Congratulations.
I feel as though I've bought a phone that hasn't been tested before sale properly and as if Nokia has just pushed it aside even though it still clearly has lots of problems.
Now, I'd like to know what you're going to do about this.
Thanks,
Tj"
I just can't believe they replaced bugs in their firmware, with EVEN MORE bugs. It's ridiculous.

I agree, it is better to avoid updating.
After the update the phone works OK and the built-in applications also in my case. However, what I loved from this phone is that it supports Java applications. The new firmware does not allow any application do not coming from Ovi store to work properly. I used to use the gmail application and the Google maps one, same for other applications from non-recognized providers. This considerably changes the rules and I consider this as cheating. I will write a complaint letter to Nokia very soon.

Zen Micro needs firmware update for Vista, but what now as it fail

As I now use Vista (paid for by my work) I came to install my Zen Micro which wasn't recognised so I came to the website and discovered that you need version 2 of the firmware for it to be compatible with Vista. Having never had the need to upgrade before I was still on Version one so I downloaded it onto my other WinXP machine?which I've used my Zen on alot before to do the upgrade. Started the upgrade and all seemed to be well until a point a 3rd of the way through a box came up asking what I'd like to do with the device (like the one when a USB key inserted). Leaving the upgrade I returned hour later to see nothing has changed and the upgrade has failed.
I've tried all the options with recovery mode but it still just shows up as having version 0.0.65 and when inserted into a PC shows up as a?Creative Zen Micro?in device manage and has a 20MB disk partition for storage but when I try and run a firmware patch it says its not connected.
Looking round this forum this seems to be quite common upto now but with the release of Vista people are forced to take the 'risk' of running a firmware update that when it fails doesn't seem to be recoverable even in recovery mode. Please can you look into updating the firmware to find these devices that it can't see, for many years I've laughed at my friends with their crashing ipods that need charging everyday due to not being able to change the battery but it now seems the jokes on me.

I used Adambonello's fix and it worked?http://forums.creative.com/creativel...mp=true#M80097

Time Capsule (brand new) needed Firmware update, now issues still

I have just updated my firmware on the Time Capsule, (I did figure out why I was getting an earlier error on my Time Capsule when an error popped up that "Time Machine couldn't complete the backup to my TIme Capsule because the "backup image was already in use". I finally saw the number or exclamation mark (I forget) and it stated it needed a firmware update (wish it would download them automatically). After I did that though, I am backing up my iMac.
I have to take my iMac to Apple today in Tampa and drop it off to replace the HD per the replacement program of a recall so I have to make sure the backup is complete. I also want to make sure my iPHone is backed up and so I was told when I bought Time Capsule that it would also wirelessly sync up all my Apple wireless devices.
I was told to use Airport Utility, but that doesn't seem to work at ALL now and I'm not sure why. As of Feb. 7th, that was updated and it seems to have caused problems for many.
I am in v. 1.2 and just deleted it and added it back in.
How can the Time Capsule allow my iPhone to access it through Airport Utility? Was there a setting I am missing?
HELP with the Time Capsule backup, the iPhone (and then my daughter's iPod, my iPad and that's about it) backing up wirelessly through Airport Utility.

Your idevices do not backup directly to the TC.. nor does the Airport Utility do anything but setup the TC.
Time Machine is the backup for the Mac.
The devices like iphone are backed up to itunes or cloud..
The itunes is then backed up by TM to the TC.. so it is indirect.
See apple doco on back of iphone for instance. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766
Let me also suggest you do a disk image of the mac. You will find this is much easier to recover your working mac from.. in fact get a USB drive is even better and download superduper.. you can do free disk images from it, but they can also be done from disk utility. Make a bootable USB drive which is an image of your existing internal drive. That can be easily restored to the Mac when you get it back.

G4 700 freeze after 1 gig ram update, does it need firmware update?

Greetings Mac Users,
Mainly a PC user here so I will break it down as best as I can. I bought this iMac G4 700mhz with a hard drive failure for 15 bucks. I put in a Seagate 120gig-7200rpm-8meg cash, a new PRam battery, and OSX 10.4.11 Tiger (formerly OSX 10.1.5 stock). I was very surprised with how well the little thing ran. So I decided to upgrade the ram to 1 gig (2X512 sticks) from 384 megs. I went to a place called We Love Macs .com. They guaranteed their ram to work in my machine . . . which it does . . . in a way.
The computer recognizes the full 1 gig of ram in OSX 10.4.11. It even works for like three to five minutes . . . then it freezes. When I say it freezes . . . it windows 95 style freezes. Everything stops . . . the machine is not attempting to do anything.
With that being said I know the issue is the Ram. But since We Love Macs are mac people and I know the ram works, I find it hard to believe it is a compatibility issue (if it is the ram goes back). I feel this is probably a firmware thing. I am sure the Mac OSX 10.4.11 software updates do not update firmware (although I may be wrong, remember PC person here).
So . . . if it is firmware . . . where do I get it? The only firmware I can find on this site or on Google is for slot loading iMacs (which as I am sure you all know the iMac G4 700 is not). It seems like the internet is devoid of all iMac G4 700/800 firmware updates.
*Bottom Line:*
Are there firmware updates that will fix this problem and if so where are they OR do I need to send this ram back to the nice people at We Love Macs .com because of a compatibility issue?
Any assistance you Mac users can give me in this situation is most adequately appreciated. Please do not hold it against me that I am a PC user . . . if this iMac pans out one way or another with a full 1 gig of ram . . . I will be giving it to my elderly mother (she loves the thing). *BUT I PROMISE* that I will be purchasing one of the new Mac Minis and mount it on TOP of my PC Rig as my full time productivity machine. This G4 700mhz has shown me the light.
Sincerely,
Barry

There is no firmware update involved, or available.
So, that should not be a cause of the issue faced here.
In those I've owned (well, only 5) that hasn't come up
as a user-upgrade issue or concern. And friends who
bought them when new, still own them, and upgraded
the OS X from original to Leopard 10.5 when possible,
have never needed (nor was it available) new firmware.
So, maybe it is the RAM configuration.
The specs for most things Mac are available from MacTracker
for free, a download for offline access, worth having on hand:
http://mactracker.ca
General info on 700/800 iMac G4 build series:
http://lowendmac.com/imacs/15in-imac-g4-700-800-mhz.html
PS: For those who upgraded to Leopard 10.5, there may be an
update whose intent is to help fix a graphics issues in some G4
iMac models, may apply. "Leopard Graphics Update 1.0"
Good luck & happy computing!

1.) It's a normal thing about slim phones - almost every phone gets hot. But you could really feel the heat in that specific phone especially its really slim.
Have you tried using the "restore factory settings" utility?
2.) Enter *#7780# on the phone while it is in standby.This will reset it to the factory settings and wipe most of the stuff from the phone (contacts, connection settings etc).
Hope this helps
Kind regards
