The N95 8GB hits v11 firmware

[slitchfield]

A major new firmware, v11.0.026, is now available for the Nokia N95 8GB through Nokia Software Update. I'll add to this story once I've done the update and spotted any changes. Comments welcome if you can help add etc.

Read on in the full article.

Hi Steve,

can you tell me which Product Code you have, I tried with mine 0557650 that is Croatia and also Balkans one 0550379 and NSU still says there is no new firmware...

THANKS!

Kind regards,

What do you know... the N95 8GB has hardly been out weeks or so, and we see a Firmware update.

While those of us who have an N95-1 just sitting on the shelf in front of them doing nothing because of the damn keypress bug so bad it makes it unusable, are still waiting after nearly FOUR MONTHS, for a fix, because Nokia keep putting back and putting back the firmware, to add in (we hope) more and more new stuff a la 8GB model).

Thanks Nokia. You could at least have released an interim fix for the keypress bug alone in the meantime.

I think this is more of an emergency bug fix update for the 8GB model, by the way, that's why it's come out so quickly. The N95 update can't be far away, surely?

Update went smoothly (105MB), restore worked fine. Apps OK, many settings voided though (access points etc), many 3rd party themes come up as 'corrupted' now, curiously.

More later, when I get time to play with it after a dose of real life intrusion(!)

The N95-1 v20 fw is supposed to include flash lite 3. Does this one for the N95 8gb also have it?

Hi Steve, Was the phone memory wiped during the upgrade?

Does the new firmware changes the orientation of the screen saver back to portrait?

I have a N95 8GB from USA, but NSU wont give any new updates available.... What product code do you have?

When the N95-1 came out it too was followed quite quickly with an upgrade.

I too hate the annoying button bug, but I'd rather wait a little longer and get a full on upgrade including all the nice new features than go through to upgrades and all the hassle of recovering X, Y and Z on my phone each time.

It's available on the EURO1 product code: 0549487

Hi Steve. Could you install the NsysInfo and tell us what is the real clock rate of the N95 8GB processor?

Thanks a lot! I guess they are uploading more... Even for EURO1 it still isn't listed as avaliable on Nokia site.

Kind regards,

N95-1 firmware will follow.... As N95 8gb firmware had been released.
