If your phone is a Branded Vodafone N97 you will have to wait till Vodafone approve it. Its the same with any network branded phone .
Heres a example Orange dont sell N97 branded as there firmware wouldnt work on it. Networks remove what they dont want from the firmware and put there stuff on and wont release it till it works correctly.
And often, if they can't get their own lousy software to work, they'll stick it on the handset anyway and mess the whole thing up for you. That's why I no longer use branded handsets. I am amazed at the performance improvements and increased stability on unbranded handsets and I certainly don't miss any of the branding!

Nokia n97 update

Hello, do you know if is there any update for nokia n97? Or had us written off nokia?

This question has been asked and answered many times before.
The chances of the original N97 seeing another update are pretty much slim to none. It's been ignored more than once whilst other cheaper models have seen updates. The way the N97 was treated certainly wasn't Nokia's finest moment.

Nokia N97 Updated with v12 firmware but......

where are the new apps also how do i get to see album artwork when scrolling?
do i have to enable it somewhere?
HELP...Please

The things you looking for are part of FW V2.0 not V12. V12 was released to fix a few stability issues check changelog here
Hit Kudos if I Helped out.

Nokia N97 Updating Problem!

I'm having trouble updating from v11 to v12. It says I have the update already but everytime I try to update it just says it disconnects and it doesn't update at all. It keeps telling me it failed and I don't understand what's wrong -_-

Try using the new Beta Labs software updater. You can download it here

Worked fine for me, Ovi Suite was always giving me the Error Code 12017.

Problem updating Nokia N97 firmware over the arir ...

OK here goes,
I'm having some real problems updating the firmware on my white nokia N97
I recently bought it of the web as a 12 month contract onto t-mobile (not there website though) in th uk
After noticing some problems i googled and noticed a firmware update had been released on 1st july 2009
I tried to get the firmwae over the air (OTA) via typing in *#0000# and selecting check for updates. I get no updates available for nokia and t-mobile (unsure what the difference is?)
So i heard try using nokia software updater.
i downloaded latest version 1.6.13 and installed it on a windows vista 32-bit home premium laptop ok
i have also installed all of the stuff that came with the cd with the phone (ovistore etc )
when i plug the phone into the laptop i get four options (PC, media, usb and something else) first time it ran it installed the necessary drivers and so therefore when i now plug it it just connects as expected.
so the laptop is detecting the nokia n97 at this stage
when i then load nokia software updater click next i put the phone into general mode on full charge with a sim card in it and click next again to detect the phone is pc suite mode
after about 2 minutes it says it can detect the phone although i can go to my computer and traverse the folder view!
i can even set it off looking for the phone pluggin it in and the autoplay options of vista will kick in in the background detecting the phone (ie outisde scope of nokia software updater)
i have tried all different connections mode pc suite mode etc different profiles nothing. tried it onto different pcs with different windows version on it. tried reinstalling software updater
my software version is 10.0.012 and my product code is 0587240
interestingly when i goto the can i update on nokias website it says no i have the latest version when i supply this information. weird
im kinda in catch 22 because there is a bug with pc usb detection of the phone in version 10 but i cant update to version 11 because of this bug
its driving me nuts any help greatly appreciated
thanks in advance
Cheers

just what i wanted cheers nokia
It will break your facebook as you have re-formatted the C: drive of you phone. Was you facebook installed to the E: drive by any chance?
Go to OVI Store and re-install it.
It may be work installing it from OVI Store then un-installing that one to clean off the mess you have been left with post formatt and then re-installing it fresh from OVI Store.
As I always say. Before doing a re-format always uninstall all apps/widgests before doing a hard reset or factory reset.
I also do a this and a factory reset before firmware updates to clean my phone. Should really do a hard reset/format as this would be cleaner still, but tehn I would have to do a lot more set-up afterwards.

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 if ur product code hasn't the v.21 update, that means that nokia didn't release it for your product code yet or your phone is branded with an operator and that means that you should go to the operator care center

Nokias N97 new Meomory Management update as a Chri...

Hi all,
just downloaded today the meomory management update for Nokia N97. After installing it increased the phone memory by 2MB and then automatically uninstalled itself. Think some of cache folders are relocated to mass memory card. in addition to this do you see any other advantages of this update. Looking forward to hearing from all of you.

The MINI got a new fw update, but AFAIK the N97 was abandoned long time ago.
N97 getting Anna? - Not true. The N97 does not have the proper hardware to run symbian 3 nor Anna.
The N97 was a great mistake as you mentioned. May God know why they came up with the brilliant idea of the tiny amount of NAND memory...

I have updated my nokia n97 to v2

i have updated my nokia n97 to v2 and i am missing sum of the new feature. when i bought this phone i had low free memory on the phone. by updating the phone i thought it will give me more free memory but it doesnt. it give me the same free memory than before updating. i really need to free up some more memory. am from the uk by da way.

You could try hard resetting the phone after the update, since most people, including myself have improvements after hard resetting. *#7370# is the hard reset code.

Software Update for Nokia N97 Mini

Hello,
I'm curious when will there be a new software update for Nokia N97 mini.
The latest update was on June or July last year v30.0.004
Would be cool to update it, don't you agree? Almost a year now....

Hi Abhishek23,
As the N97mini is an older model, its software development and maintenance cycle has ended a number of years ago. There will be no more firmware updates for this device, and every other Symbian device produced in the last few years.....as Symbian is now in maintenance mode and the focus is on the Asha line and the Windows Phone platform of which Lumia is part of.
Nokia should have brought the same improvements to N97 mini which were included in the 41.x.xxx and 42.x.xxx software versions for the C6-00. After all, apart from the camera the C6-00 is the same device as the N97 mini, so it should have been fairly trivial. They are not major changes by no means, but useful.
Unfortunately there is at least one major bug left even in the latest C6-00 firmware: http://www.developer.nokia.com/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=153
It also affects N97 mini with 30.0.004, but it appears Nokia is not going to fix it on either device.

Nokia Software Updater doesnt detect my N97 Device

When I plug my phone into my PC via PC Suite mode, the PC Suite software immediately sees the phone and fires right up. I can backup data, send texts through the PC, etc. without an issue.
However, when I try and run Nokia Software Updater to load the newest software, the Software Updater can't find the N97 device. I updated to the newest version of Updater (straight off the Nokia website) and it doesn't make any difference; it just doesn't see the phone (and I've tried in every different USB connection mode).
Please Help, I'd love to update the software, I've been told it improves a lot of things on the phone. Also I've read that it could be that I'm simply not allowed to update this software just yet? It might need to be approved by my provider first etc, is this true?

Try Ovi Suite.

People who cannot update their Nokia n97 to firmware v21.0.045 please post your comments here, provide your product code and whether your phone is unbranded or not.
Nokia has stated that the new firmware (v21.0.045) will be available at 08:00 GMT for "standard non-customised versions of the software , with country (SIM-free) and operator versions following over the next few days and weeks." *This can take up to a month for the firmware to be approved by your Operator*
BUT if you still cannot update your n97 by the stated period of time please post your comments here. Also post here if your unbranded phone is incapable of updating

Nokia N97 - Issues with updater

I updated my N97 with the latest firmware update (had to use old PC Suite as Ovi Suite would not find my phone!!). I then pressed the update function on the phone to see what other updates were there. I found this wonderful new program that reorganises your files and sorts out any memory issues on the phone memory! Great? NO!!!! Due to the fact Nokia failed to highlight CLEARLY that you should not download this before the new Ovi Maps version 3.03, I now cannot download Ovi maps or indeed, any other nokia software update as i now get a message telling me I have not got enough memory!!! Help someone! I have reinstalled the new firmware but the phone remains in the same state. I fear I may have to go all the way back through my factory settings to put this right. A poor show from Nokia I have to say. Help someone ...please

Can you not uninstall this app via PC Suite applications manager .
Or via settings organize remove on the phone .

Nokia N97 mini firmware

First of all I would like to excuse me for my bad English as I am from Latvia!
Recently I have bought a new Nokia N97 mini. I have backed up everything and written down all the name of software that I afterwards uninstalled as I thought that it would be better for firmware update process. My goal was to update the phone to the newest firmware for my phone, however I got into problems with all the versions available.
So this is the information on my mobile phone:
Software version: v 11.0.102
Software version date: 01-02-2010
Custom version: 11.0.102.C01.01
Custom version date: 01-02-2010
Language set: 13
Model: N97 mini
Type: RM-555
Latest update: Not updated
>What I understand is that that some custom firmware version is installed there. I should mention that it is brand new and right out of box from Finland so I don`t think that anyone would have made custom version, installed it and repacked the phone.
When I use Nokia Software Updater in my PC (MS Win 7) I got informed about that that the latest possible version is already installed.
When I use Nokia web site using my telephone code written under the battery I got informed that latest available software for my device is: 10.0.020, however in phone there is version 11.0.102.C01.01 installed.
When I was looking for the latest software release for Nokia N97 Mini it was 12.0.110, however there was mentioned that it is only for certain devices.
So the question is if the latest firmware (12.0.110) version custom package is available for my device. If it is possible that there in my device there is a newer custom version (11.0.102.C01.01) installed than my Nokia N97 mini device support (10.0.020) than it should be possible that there is some newer custom firmware (12.0.110) available for my phone.
=============================================================
So where can I obtain it? And speaking generally were (exact internet address of FTP or HTTP protocol handled server, with login information, if needed) all Nokia N97 mini firmware`s could be found? I would even try to install non-customized version 12.0.110 of it on my phone. Maybe I don`t even need any custom version and all Nokia N97 mini devices can handle any Nokia N97 mini firmware?

I can clearly live without Latvian language and as it is well known that there is no special or no at all services or applications for Latvia region that I could miss. I would better use United Kingdom apps and turn off some really unnecessary services or news.
I would`t reply if there were nothing at all from Latvia in phone. I just need to get it work faster and with less problems form software side. I could use any Nokia N97 mini update version that doesn`t have "Comes with music" services and apps as I don`t have license to it.

Nokia N97, can someone help me please

Okay i've had my Nokia n97 for more than 6months now and its been working great except lately my facebook app wasn't working and i had to update it,
so last night i backed up my files on my mobile and i connected it to the pc and updated it with the program that the mobile brings with a cd it was okay then i went back to restore my files and it said it had to restart so it turned off and i went to turn it on again and it stayed a blank screen with the nokia sign in the middle in blue (when you turn it on it that usually shows) but it stayed stuck there it doesn't go to pin code nor anything, and to turn it off i have to take the battery off,
any ideas how to fix this or i have to go to the shop?

Yep, if you could not use facebook on the webbrowser, it would likely be some issue with facebook (servers etc.)
There a lots of posts on different ways to handle the full memory message.
Fw update, clean privacydata in browser, change messagememory to E, or soft reset. Use the searchbar and see if you could find anything. Gotta go to bed now. The n97 is a buggy device, and many customers experience wierd behavior. Often it is caused by low memory on C, corrupted storage as memorycard or E, or bad apps. You could always try a reboot too.
