Nokia N95 Mobile updated firmware

I have two Nokia N95 8GB (RM-320) phones and using the Nokia Software Updater one would update and the other one didnt have the update shown ! strange
Recommend the update if you can get it
Have seen no problem with the Video / Camera functions unlike one other I read about
if your screen stops auto rotate then

Tools / Settings / General / Personalisation / Display / Rotate Screen .. Set to Automati

A way to avoid the uncomfortable feeling of breaking laws with operator customized phones is not to get such in the first place (don't enter binding subsidized, subscription contracts/plans you feel you have to break), or if you do, live with whatever restrictions they come with (you accepted the terms by signing the agreement in the first place).

Nay

Vodafone users, you can update to the latest firware. Google it. Not strictly legal, but perfectly possible with free tools widely available online.

Opera Mini on v30 firmware

Can someone who upgraded their firmware do a test for me? Visit www.operamini.com with the built in browser and see if the site correctly detects your phone as N95 8GB. For mine, it was unable to do so and I landed up with an installation of Opera Mini with a really small icon... Sighs...

n95 update

the company from where the phone originates must first approve of the new firmware, before i can work, so if your phone in anyway is branded, you must wait for approval.

I'd like to do the software update BEFORE I install anything, so if it's gonna be just a few days or a week, I'll wait for it instead of having to backup and restore.
As far as I know, there's no v30 yet for the RM-421 (North American market version of the N95 8GB). It'll probably come a bit later as has been the case in the past.

No update solution for v20 to v30

if you have firmware v20 and check for update is showing you no update available download the latest NOKIA SOFTWARE UPDATER for your phone model from nokia.com, it has nothing to do with region. I am from Bangladesh I was downloading the v30 suddenly after 90mb of download, it stopped and when I started checking for update over and over again it showed ''no update available' then next when I checked for update it continued downloading from the 90mb.

Just updated this morning.

Does anyone else notice faster and stronger GPS pickups? Mine have gone from about 5 minutes to 30 seconds. This could be due to me sorting out A-GPS but I think it's the new firmware...

onutz Updated 2 days ago, here you go:

- no change in battery consumption (on a daily heavy usage)
- several restarts while sending first SMS, installing Opera Mini (in a low signal envir), Talkonaut;
- flash 3 is still very buggy;
- real player drops frames and freezes in MP4;
- some (pizero's) themes are not stable anymore (i.e. Quasar theme keeps unloading while entering Nokia Chat);

Regards
