Nokia software update whilst connected through the...

Hi,
I have a nokia 6500 slide v6.60.
I connect my laptop via this to the internet. 
I have run the update software and it tells me version 9.40 is available. 
If I now proceed with this does any one know what will happen. As in, does the NSU download the new version fully to a temperorary folder before updating it to the phone( obvioiusly on restart of phone the internet connection would drop and if new version still downloading and taking affect all hell could breakloose  .
Is there somewhere I could just manually download the new version then apply the update???
Many thanks in advance

It should work in theory, then again I wouldn't like to be the guy putting that theory to the test
NSU does indeed download the full firmware package before toggling the phone into flash mode and uploading that package. FWIW, it also keeps that firmware package so that you can re-install it into the phone without having to download it all over again if the update fails first time.
How NSU will react if the phone about to be updated is also the modem, meaning that the Internet connection gets severed suddenly, is anyone's guess.

  • N82: Nokia Software Update doesn't find the phone

    Hello, I am trying to update the firmware of my Nokia N82, but I get an error message from Nokia Software Updater saying that it doesn't find the phone. I find that strange as Nokia PC Suite indeed finds the phone. The icon on the taskbar says that "AndersMobil is connected".
    I've noticed that if I let Nokia PC Suite run at the same time as Nokia Software Updater, this icon shows that the phone is being connected and disconnected several times while Nokia Software Updater tries to find the phone, something that might indicate that the two programs cannot be run at the same time? I tried to run Nokia Software Update alone, but still the program doesn't find the phone.
    In Windows Hardware Manager (or Units manager, not sure of the english translation) of Windows XP, "Nokia GSM Phone USB Modem" gives the following error message: "The unit is not working as it should as Windows cannot load the necessary drivers for this unit (Code 31)." Under "Portable Devices" in Hardware Manager/(or Units manager?) the error message "This unit cannot start. (Code 10)" appears for the unit "AndersMobil".
    I followed the guidelines on the internet reinstalling Nokia PC Suite and Nokia Software Updater, removing and reinstalling the drivers, but Nokia Software Update still doesn't find the phone, and the same error messages appears in Hardware/Units manager every time.
    What do I do?
    Regards,
    Anders
    By the way, I sent an e-mail to Nokia support about this but they still haven't answered although it's been a long time since.

    See also my post "N82: Remove memory card and click OK" at /discussions/board/message?board.id=smartphones&me​ssage.id=79797#M79797
    I don't know if that problem might be interconnected with the other in some way or not.

  • Nokia Software updater wont connect

    Hey all,
    I open Nokia Software Updater, but it just keeps saying
    'Network Connection Lost. Check your network connection or wether a firewall is preventing the application from working properly'
    This is what i can't understand, i've reinstalled the software, pc suite and the updater numerous times but it just hasn't worked, i know the firewall isn't effecting it, as i have disabled it and it still refuses to work. And i do have a active internet connection as i'm here now.
    Please Help.
    If you need the phone details for anyway it's a Nokia N80.

    I had the same issue with N82, I had Mcafee Firewall, after I disable it, it didn't work. I had to use startup program, to remove it from the windows startup, and after that I managed to use the software update.

  • Software update cant connect to the internet

    I connect to the internet via wifi on my MBP and I can have say firefox connecting to the internet, mail checks fine, itunes store works, but Safari and Mac Software Updater wont connect. Any Ideas?
    Ive tried resetting PRAM,
    Tried the network diagnostic, but that says its all fine but a rerun of the updater still no connection.
    Tried various signal strengths to the modem.
    check/verify permissions and Hard disk.

    I have had this error returned for months... Not just during the holidays. Dozens of other users are having/have been having the same issue. SU starts just fine, gets to about 25 meg (in my case) and times out, returns the error you quoted. Smaller files usually (but not always) come thru ok. A common thread with all the posts I have read seems to be DSL. On a different thread, it was suggested the modem can get out of synch with the server due to line or modem issues such as forgetting to put filter in all phone jacks.
    Anyway, I'm going to give SU another go... It probably won't work...

  • Nokia Software updater is not recogonizing the new...

    I can see so mant thread and discussion about the new firmware for nokia n95 8GB(RM-320), according to that the new firmware version is v35, but when i use my S/W updater its showing the update version as V31(the same i have in my Smartphone).
    Can any one help me, is this update is not yet release to India or any issues with updater???
    Thanks in advance.

    Firmware are given to  public according to the location of each ones, i mean according to the country. Saying so if you are in Canada you might have a different firmware version with someone located in Hong Kong.  Also your phone have a number inside that help the SW Updater undertake your location and that number inside your phone will not allow you to have another location updates unless you change that code, note that changing that code can also change the displayed languages on your phone all depending on which country code you put inside your phone, so if your S/W updater its showing the update version as V31(the same i have in my Smartphone) it mean that the latest software update for your phone according to the code inside your phone is still version V31; and the version 35 belong to some other countries. Now check again to find out what country can download the version 35, and if you satisfy with the languages provided by that firmware 35 find the nokia country code for your nokia and input it in your phone and finally run your software updater again.  Press the star icon on the left if my post help you.

  • Software Updater- Not connected to the internet

    I have recently downgraded from a Cable modem to a wi-fi using Globetroter Connect and the AT&T 3G network. Now when I run Software update - I get a message that I am not connected to the internet - even tho I am running Netscape in the background. (I have tried both running netscape and not runing netscape so that's not the issue) I have browsed through old posts on this topic and can't seem to find help.
    thanks in advance

    If other OS X internet dependent items do not work of don't work well
    now that you've changed some system settings (or should have) in
    order to use a new internet provider and other hardware, you may
    have to change system settings. A non-Apple browser can use its
    own settings and find an internet connection in your Mac. Other
    parts of the system may not find the internet directly if a change
    was made to your computer's settings or the hardware attached.
    In some cases, a Mac owner may find Safari won't work; FireFox
    will; and to the same web pages, the results will differ. Or other
    internet dependent items such as certain live widgets can't find
    the internet if they rely on other system settings not set correctly.
    So, this means there much be some location setting, or some
    old proxy, or perhaps a firewall setting or other block; maybe
    even one part of the Network settings is correct in general
    while another is not. Even improper DNS or other numbers
    may be a partial reason for something halfway working.
    If you get different results or none at all from native Mac OS X
    internet dependent applications or utilities, then the settings
    or location, or other network, or system pref setting, etc are in
    need of review and some changes need to be tried.
    Have you tried other user accounts to see if the system's own
    reliance on the internet settings in System Preferences Network
    and other basics still work (or don't) thereby narrowing the issue?
    The kind of problem you've cited has other parallel causes under
    different topics online; I have read about, but not experienced them.
    Good luck & happy computing!

    For a better connection please insert the usb-cable directly in to the computer and not trough a usb-hub or -keybord or a dockingstation of a laptop.
    Nokia Software Updater has tried downloading the software, but this is failed 4 times.
    Its posible that it can be caused by a bad, slow or instable internet connection.
    This failure can also occur because we have maybe a problem with our servers.
    try later again

  • Updating firmware when I can't get an internet connection through the router

    I am trying to update the firmware for WRT54G V8, but some of the instructions indicate I need to have the router connected and be connected to the internet.  I cannot get an internet connection through the router.  Can I upgrade firmware without being connected to the internet through the router.  (I have had this router for about a year and a half with no problems until now.)

    Yes, you can upgrade the firmware without an Internet connection.
    To upgrade the firmware, first download the new firmware into a computer that you can wire to your router.
    Next, power down your entire network.
    Then wire the computer to a LAN port on the router.
    Disconnect all other wires from the router.
    Power up the router and allow it to fully boot (1-2 minutes).
    Power up your computer.
    Login to the router, and do the firmware upgrade  (it will likely take several minutes).
    Power down your entire network.
    Next you need to reset the router to factory defaults.
    To reset your router to factory defaults, use the following procedure:
    1) Power down all computers, the router, and the modem, and unplug them from the wall.
    2) Disconnect all wires from the router.
    3) Power up the router and allow it to fully boot (1-2 minutes).
    4) Press and hold the reset button for 30 seconds, then release it, then let the router reset and reboot (2-3 minutes).
    5) Power down the router.
    6) Connect one computer by wire to port 1 on the router (NOT to the internet port).
    7) Power up the router and allow it to fully boot (1-2 minutes).
    8) Power up the computer (if the computer has a wireless card, make sure it is off).
    9) Try to ping the router. To do this, click the "Start" button > All Programs > Accessories > Command Prompt. A black DOS box will appear. Enter the following: "ping 192.168.1.1" (no quotes), and hit the Enter key. You will see 3 or 4 lines that start either with "Reply from ... " or "Request timed out." If you see "Reply from ...", your computer has found your router.
    10) Open your browser and point it to 192.168.1.1. This will take you to your router's login page. Leave the user name blank, and in the password field, enter "admin" (with no quotes). This will take you to your router setup page. Note the version number of your firmware (usually listed near upper right corner of screen). Exit your browser.
    If you get this far without problems, try the setup disk (or setup the router manually, if you prefer), and see if you can get your router setup and working.
    If you cannot get "Reply from ..." in step 9 above, your router is likely dead. Report back with this problem
    If you get a reply in step 9, but cannot complete step 10, then either your router is dead or the firmware is corrupt. Report back with this problem.
    If you need additional help, please state your ISP, the make and model of your modem, your router's firmware version, and the results of steps 9 and 10. Also, if you get any error messages, copy them exactly and report back.
    Please let me know how things turn out for you.

  • HT1766 My IPAD software update is avail for the iOS 7.0.3   I keep trying to install it.  I have my IPAD hooked up to my MAC and the Wi FI,  I have internet open  It keeps telling me now connected to internet.  What am I doing wrong.

    You can try resetting your iPad by simultaneously pressing and holding the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons until you see the Apple Logo. This can take up to 15 seconds so be patient and don't release the buttons until the logo appears.
    Try again to see if the problem persists.

  • Does the Nokia software updater version 1.4.64 sup...

    Does the Nokia software updater version 1.4.64 support N85?
    When I tried to update and the massage always appear "Unable to retrieve phone information" Does anyone having the same problem?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Got the same problem: Unable to retrieve phone information.
    I reinstalled Nsu -> did not help. Same error.
    I am using the general Profile and restarted the phone several times (plus removing battery) etc etc.
    My product code is 0572856.
    My custom version is 10.045.203.2 (29.09.08)
    According to my phone provider there is a newer software available. I got the problem that the caller-id is not always shown when the contact is saved in the phone: When i save my second number in my n85 contacts with the international dial code, i can see the contacts name when receiving SMS only, but not if i get called from that number. When i remove the international dial code i can see the contact's name when i get called but not when i receive a SMS. I have only one contact saved in my phone (no duplicates!). Tried to move it to sim memory, to either use one memory or both memories. Nothing helps. Whether the number is from the same phone provider or not does not make any difference. I cant save both formats in one contact either.
    According to my phone provider this is a known bug and can be removed by downloading the latest firmware for N85.
    But i cant download anything, dont even know if there is really a newer software to download for my above mentioned version.
    i tried to download nsu-versions in other languages, but that did not help too.
    any help/suggestions?

  • N80 on the Nokia Software Updater

    Dear updaters,
    We are pleased to announce the inclusion of Nokia N80 to the list of products supported by the Nokia Software Updater.
    There are two things to note:
    1. Not all variants may have the latest software. New variants are constantly being updated, so if your variant is not included, please check back again soon.
    2. If you have installed the SMS accelerator patch for your Nokia N80, this will need to be re-installed after the N80 software update. The SMS accelerator patch is available from http://www.europe.nokia.com/A4149142
