Nokia e65 firmware

Hi guys,
Just wondering, has anyone got any idea if there is going to be a firmware update for the E65 that actually fixes the bugs, and if so when? Ive had mine for several months now, Ive updated to firmware 2 and then 3 but I still have a lot of bugs in the phone that are making it nigh on unusable. For example, every so often I will select a number from the phonebook and hit dial, but nothing happens. I will have to restart the phone again in order to be able to use the dial button. I have actually started having to set the number as a speed dial and use that to make out going calls! The phone also seems to lock up randomly, usually when Im typing a text message. Very annoying if it happens 4 pages into a message!
Sorry to rant, I usually hate guys who sign up to support forums and start moaning in their first post! Its just Ive had the phone for a while now, and its been buggy since day 1 and it looks like Nokia are making no effort to fix it. Its a shame cause it would be a cracker of a phone without the bugs.

What good is that going to do tho, if this issue is related to the firmware (as is suggested by the fact that numerous other people are having similar problems)? If I send it back to Nokia, are they only going to reformat the phone and send it back to me (I could do that myself, and have done to no avail)? I know several people with this phone who have all had similar problems, and most of them have had the phone repaired or replaced, only for the exact same issues to arise again shortly after. I cant afford to be without my phone if it means that all they are going to do is reload the same buggy firmware and send it back to me...
Like I said, its a real shame this phone is such a disaster, because it has the potential to be a really good phone, if only it worked properly!!!

  • Nokia E65 firmware update due in October

    Hi all,
    we just received a message from the Eseries team. They informed us that "Nokia will release a firmware update for the E65 in October for most E65 variants."
    There's been plenty of discussion here among E65 owners so I hope this helps. We do not have any information about any possible changes that this update will bring but I am sure many of the discussions about the E65 here at Support Discussions have been a valuable source of information to Nokia.

    At the moment Nokia does not publish change logs nor schedules for any product-specific updates.
    E65 was an exception since there seemed to be so much concern over whether it will be supported by NSU at all (as it's not yet listed at www.europe.nokia.com/softwareupdate).

  • Nokia E65 Firmware Updating Problems.

    Hey guys I have a Nokia E65 (RM-208).
    Whenever I try and run the Nokia Software Updater it is never able to find an update. Even though I know there are updates available.
    When I press *#0000# it says 1.0633.03.00
    28-09-06
    RM-208
    Nokia.
    Does anyone know an alternative way to download and install this firmware on my phone? I really need to update the firmware because this phone is very buggy.
    Thanks in advance.

    Anyone???

  • Nokia E65 - Firmware upgrade

    Hiya
    I have an E65 with the following firmware version:
    1.0633.18.01
    11-01-07
    RM-208
    With Vodafone software as well.
    It runs rather slow and sluggish. Is there a new version which will make it quicker? I have to re-boot the phone as some of the functions stop working.
    How do I upgrade/get hold of any newer versions? Will I have to take it back to Vodafone or Nokia Service Center or can i do it myself?
    Thanks for your help.

    Try, first, by reformatting the phone with *#7370# and without restoring the backup. If things work, then something is wrong with the backup, probably.
    I tried reformat the phone and then use him without restoring the backup. All work regulary. Thanks

  • Nokia E65 - Newest version of NSU - No updates ava...

    I would really appreciate it if someone could enlighten me on as to why the newest version of the NSU (1.04.53 or whatever) tells me there are no updates available for my E65?
    My E65 has never had its firmware updated, it is still on 1.0633.18.02
    I know for a FACT that there is a higher version than this available, it's being reviewed here - http://www.symbianv3.com/nokia-e65-firmware-update-v206336501.
    My phone is only 6 months old, and already behaves like a geriatric piece of s*** just because it's got a few hundred text messages on it.
    Any input would be gratefully received

    The main reasons for updates not being available are if the update hasn't reached your region yet (they are not introduced simoutaneously around the world) or if your phone has network operator software instead of the standard Nokia software.
    If operator software, then your network must approve updates before Nokia can release them.
    Smartphones are prone from time to time to memory problems, you could try backing up your personal data and reformatting with *#7370#, this may help.

  • New firmware for Nokia E65?

    Hi!
    I've heard many who have updated their Nokia E65 to firmware v3.0633.69.00 but my updater still says v2.0633.65.01 . Where do I get the v3?
    And my E65 is very very very slow to open menus and messages. Anyone else got this problem? How can I fix this sluggish phone and make it faster? It sometimes take 5-6 seconds to open the menu or an SMS. That's realy bad

    Hello itmn,
    I updated my E65 to v3 at Nokia Care Point (even though it was not available in NSU, they told me they always receive the firmware upgrades first than they are released to the Internet/NSU).
    After a couple of weeks using this new firmware, I noticed battery improvements (with 3G switched off), the phone is little to nothing faster, and some minor bugs I was experiencing related to WLAN were corrected.
    As to your E65 being slow, I once was experiencing the same with v2 firmware and the only solution I managed to fix it was to reset the phone.
    I reseted after a back up, but then decided to restore only contacts and calendar entries, and reinstall all the applications from new/fresh downloads (as I noticed some of them didn't work if they were restored from the back up).
    In the end, the phone was faster and more responsive.
    I guess you could give it a try.
    Cheers

    Check out this passage from the sticky thread on this board:
    Other people can update their software but I cannot. What's wrong?
    Update availability is based on many things, including existing Nokia device firmware version, country, and operator. It may be due to one of these variables that your Nokia device isn't eligible for updates.
    Please note that your mobile service provider, operator, or carrier may not have approved the latest Nokia device firmware available.
    Nokia produces many different variants of each product (for different countries and languages) and not all variants have the latest Nokia device firmware. It is our priority to update all variants as quickly as possible, and we apologize for any delay. New software may become available at a later date, however, so please check again soon.

  • Nokia E65 - SMS tone problem

    My Nokia E65 CAN receive messages (SMS), but there is NO indication about receiving. There is no tone, no vibration, no light when message is received. I have tried restore factory settings, update Firmware. But there was no result, it is still catatonic about signaling that SMS is arriving. Other tones work OK (Call, clock alarm, keypad....).
    Any similar problems or any other solutions?

  • Nokia E65 pretends to be dead after upgrade to fir...

    I upgraded my Nokia E65 and the upgrade failed while Nokia was in "test mode" after about ten minutes of upgrade process. But the phone restarted and worked well in new firmware. I decided to give one more chance to be sure and the upgrade failed again, this time phone was in "Nokia local mode". And yet the phone works perfectly and the firmware is version 3.
    What's wrong if any?

    Hi,
    please describe your problem shorter and clearly.
    i dont understand can you upgrade your phone successfully or no?

  • Nokia e65 upgrade problem

    Hi all!
    First of all sorry for my bad english.
    I buy a Nokia e65 "internet limited edition" on vodafone and when I try to upgrade with Nokia software updater says that:
    Connected phone was not recognized.
    I can use the pc suite but can`t upgrade. Why?
    Can anyone help me?

    Hello karma,
    Sincerely, besides the minor speed improvement, didn't notice any more improvements.
    At the Nokia Care Point they told me this firmware was mainly bug corrections and some adjustments, so it would not be noticeable to the end-user (besides some battery managing improvements, more stability and as I mentioned, the small speedup).
    As I never had major issues with firmware v2, to me it really didn't change much.
    Cheers

    RM-208
    Nokia E65
    Bought this mobile on 16th April 2007 in the Middle East (UAE - Abu Dhabi)

    Update 1:
    1.0633.18.02
    26-01-07
    RM-208
    Update 2:
    1.633.58.02
    I connected my phone to the NSU software but it still says no new firmware. Is there a site by nokia or anyone, where constant updates are added as to what model would has what new software version.
    I believe that the customer care section of phone shops get their info from some nokia site. Downloading that software is copyrighted, but having access to version information is harmless. Why doesnt nokia give a page where all phones are updated with their latest software versions and the changelogs.
