The N95 8GB gets ASR!

[slitchfield]

The Nokia N95 8GB just got a minor firmware update, to v20.0.016 (from v15). Apart from a few bug fixes and optimisations, the main changes are the addition of Automatic Screen Rotation (driven by the accelerometer, as on the N82) and support for more Bluetooth headsets. See below for details and comments.

Read on in the full article.

Can ASR be done on the standard N95???

They can...but they won't

For a momenet I thought you have something new Steve


It is quite an old "news" we got and publish full change log few weeks ago?

If the "foundations" of UDP had been layed down, surely it would have been mentioned in Teo's changelog.

the "combo memory" mentioned in Teo's changelog is probably the foundation for Udp, which we'll find in the next update.
Glad it's out for euro codes as i updated on a obscure product code and have had issues with both the download app and the silent profile shortcut using # not working.
Will reinstall with the euro code.

@Unregistered: No, this is new news, v20 firmware was effectively just vapourware for most N95 8GBs until lunchtime today. Today was the big release for most of the Euro product codes! 8-)

Teo mentioned that the combo memory wouldn't benefit us(the end user) in any way so I doubt it has anything to do with UDP.

"If the "foundations" of UDP had been layed down, surely it would have been mentioned in Teo's changelog."

The n82 came with but never advertised with UDP until the first update(and no change log ever mentioned it). Probably the same kind of situation.

I don't really agree with this firmware as vaporware before today. It exists and can be updated at service points. It just wasn't on available on NSU.

Since the Black N82 comes with v20 already, does it exist since it shipped before the update NSU update?

If I remember correctly, Teo didn't post any changelogs for the N82 until the recent one for V20, but I may be wrong.

The firmware was infact available for many N95 8GBs via NSU for a long time now. Take for instance the UK Country Variation N95 8GB.

This seems like a relatively minor update. Do you think it's worth it? I already have rotate me installed and it can take me about 5 hours to reinstall all my apps and settings after a firmware update. What do you reckon?

Does Nokia internet radio work with the new firmware on WLAN? I keep getting "Connection Timed Out"
