SIM Memory?
The handset does not lose data from the SIM card when you update it, I'm guessing that you don't have your contacts?
Did you use the Nokia Backup in Nokia PC Suite to back up before you updated the firmware? It does mention on the updater that the handset has potential to be wiped. You should always make at least one back up (generally I make three so that there is less risk of losing my data) before updating firmware on the handset.
I'm not sure with the N95 8Gb - I was under the impression that the 8Gb user memory is also not wiped in a Software update.
You can also check in the contacts application that you are using SIM memory not phone memory for contact details.
Shunts...
I will mostly be communicating with a Nokia E72 Zodium Black
Nokia E72-1 with Vr 051.018.207.04 Software

  • After update N95 8gb i got big problems.

    I make a backup of all but not the 8gb-memory, and restured all after upate, and everyting seems to work fine.
    First problem; i see now i have no 3g 3 (no connection) competely dead, i can not use the phone to communicate.
    Strange everything work fine after update yesterday and this morning, something happen when it was in the locker at work.
    And now i can't use Maploader, it say i have no memorycard, i understand that problem, i delete the whole Cities-folder this morning, because i dont need Nokia GPS-program Wayfinder anymoore, i choose Nav4all instead, i try the maploader only to for testing, i don't want to download any maps.
    I test maploader now only bacause my phone is completely dead in communication, try to find out why.
    I check in Nokia Nseries PC Suit everything on PC & mobil are the latest update.
    I have another mobile SE M600i with 3g 3-cashcard, i by that cashcard only to enable the phone to start, not for communication, that mobile have full 3g (and probably work fine).
    Was it the thing that i delete the Cities-map, no it can't be, because i use the N95 8gb and it work fine after that.
    after work i even have a missed call on that mobile, but i can't call back, it's dead in communication now.
    Strange things happens now.

    Is your phone in another language? You should normally see 2 or 3 options.
    1. Dual Mode
    2. UMTS
    3. GSM
    Maybe you could try reseting the phone if nothing else works.
    Always remember to backup your phone before performing resets as your data may be lost.
    Try these
    *#7780# - Restore factory settings - resets all the settings to the default
    *#7370# - Reformat your phone

  • Problem with software update (N95 8gb)

    I have recently updated the software pn the phone
    (previous version was 10.0)
    the new version is
    20.0.016
    28-02-08
    RM-320
    Nokia N95 (60.01)
    now my music player does not work properly .. it keeps saying that its searching and loading, and then freezes and exits itself ... now when i go again to open it up .. it just freezes and leaves the application open on the phone, i now have to switch the phone off to ensure my battery doesnt die
    what can I do?

    You have a few possible options.
    The first is to try the resets. Always remember to backup your phone before performing resets as your data may be lost.
    First try these
    *#7780# - Restore factory settings - resets all the settings to the default
    *#7370# - Reformat your phone
    The second is to try reinstalling the update using NSU.
    The third is to bring it to your nearest Nokia Care Centre and have them reinstall the update.

  • Nokia N95 8gb latest firmware update 21/02/13

    Hi, I have had a problem whilst updating my N95 8gb and now it appears, I think, that the  firmware version I have is an older one than I had previously, but there isn't anything newer showing as availaable. I have 35,0.001. I am sure that the last time I had a problem, after it was "flashed", the firmware I had installed by the shop was this and then when I got home and went to restore my files, there was a new update available on line. The rreason I say this is that the icons and colours etc are like the version installed by the shop, about 1 year ago and when I updated the software everything was different. If what I am saying is correct, does anyone know if this newer firmware update has now been withdrawn or can anyone throw any light on the subject as I am a little confused! Thanks

    If your N95 8GB is RM-320 the last available firmware for all product codes is v35.0.001. Using restore via Nokia Suite can only reset your individual personalisation settings.

  • Nokia N95 8GB refuses to update - help!

    I've tried for months to update the software on my N95 8GB but various versions of PC Suite then Suite have respectively refused to work.
    The Suite software has updated again, and I hoped this time maybe the update would work to update my phone's firmware, but again the same problem.
    It was previously an error where it wouldn't download the update, and told me something was wrong. Now it does download the update, but during the software update process of the phone, when it's resetting the phone (and says to ignore warnings about USB connections), the phone simply turns off and doesn't restart. I can turn it on manually, but it doesn't help. I get 'connection with phone was lost' every time.
    I really want to update the software to the latest incarnation, but this is beyond a joke. Anyone got any advice?
    I've tried different USB slots, different PCs, different cables, every suggestion under the sun I've read online, but the phone just won't automatically restart and resume the update. Just turns off each time.
    Any advice?

    Un-install all Nokia related softwares thru' Windows control Panel and then fresh install Nokia Suite to see if that makes any difference.
    You may try the latest Beta version of Nokia Suite from here ... Need to log-in using the same credentials that you use on this Forum, to download the installer.
    If nothing works, you may get the phone updated thru' your local Nokia Care ...

  • New update for N95 8gb not showing

    a software update for the n95 8gb has been announced recently, but when i go to update, it doesn't show the latest version in the updater.
    I assume nokia haven't got it up yet, despite stating on the site that it is available. This has some fairly essential updates such as flash.
    Am i being impatient?

    Hi wintomato
    Presumably you mean v15.0.015 details here:
    http://europe.nokia.com/A4577225
    You don't mention whether your N95 8GB is a SIM free version or network branded in which case network may have not yet authorized the release of this software update.

    Im disapointed in Nokia..Some of you got the updated software 1.5 and can enjoy a faster device and youtube, but im still at 1.0 and cant update. The updater is new, Im connected at the internet but I just cant update, and as I see many users cant..Im so disapointed in Nokia and in this device that costed me 850€.

    The discussion boards are a user-to-user troubleshooting forum, if you require direct support from Nokia staff you need to contact Nokia by telephone or e-mail, contact details can be found on the Nokia web site for your country or region.
    It should be pointed out, however, that schedules of update releases are not published in advance.
    In some cases, updates may be available at Care Points before they are available on NSU, so if you have particular need to update sooner it is worth checking with your local care point.

  • Nokia N95 8GB updates?

    Should be receiving my nokia n95 8gb tomorrow
    Just wondering if there are any updates I will need to download? (such as maps etc)
    I'd have thought a new model would be fully updated but just to be sure.....
    thanks

    The firmware will be fully up to date as there isn't any updates yet.
    You will need to install the maps manually using the software on the supplied CD, unless your network provider has pre-loaded them for you.

  • Lack of firmware updates for the N95 8GB

    Does anyone know what the latest firmware is for the N95 8GB?  I've unlocked my phone from Vodafone but the updater still says the latest version is 20.0.016 but there are numerous posts talking about version 30?

    As stated in his first post he has unlocked his phone. Also there is no point even phoning Vodafone. I spent around 2 months speaking to them trying to get an update for my N96 which never came. I was then also told they were under no obligation to do it either. Only option for me was to get the vodafone branding removed, so glad I did as he phone is much quicker now.
