Nokia ALWAYS feck up new operating system launches...
Had the 7650, 6600, N73, N95 and 5800. They all used bleeding-edge revisions of Series 60/Symbian, and all seem to suffer the same problems - screen, restart cycling, messages, compatibility breaking and BUUUUUUUUUUGGGGGGGGGSSSSSS!!
This is the worst so far though. Has anyone managed to keep all their stuff after updating? I lost the nice app-based version of iPlayer and can't get it back! Just installs the web-widget version of older Series 60v3 handsets

It's only my messages nothing important and to be honest I think it's cause they were saved to my memory card so I decided to not back up the user memory section.

How did you go about giving the phone a new product code?
Tired of waiting for Orange to certify the update for my phone, at least if I give it a Nokia generic code I'll be able to update on day one.

you change the product code using jaf and pkey emulater version 4/5..then when you update the firmware via nokia updater , it looks at what product code you got then updates accordingly...
so if you got a orange product code it will update with the latest orange firmware and if you have a non branded product code (put in by yourself) it will update with the latest non branded firmware..
google it and read the instructions , its very easy to do..

Debranded, change code to generic UK and updated to v20. Phone is much more responsive now, multi-tasking on it is now much quicker (playing music slowed down text entry to about 1 word a second) and I am a happy chappy.
Think that Nokia could still work on the internet browser, trying to enter text in message boards is still pretty slow. Here's hoping v20+ gets here soon.

yes nokia has released the latest firmware for nokia 5800 but is not available in all countries... so those who are desperate for getting them should wait until the firmware comes to their country/region....

Well - I'm on V 11.0.0.009, it's April 22nd, I'm on a 5800 Red on Orange in the UK, and I'm still being told by NSU and over the air that 11.0.0.009 is the latest firmware for my phone.
I would do a debrand using JAF, and I've tried, but all I ever seem to find is versions which come up as viruses, ones that crash or alternative unbranding programs that won't recognise my phone like Pheonix or Nemesis (despite trying to roll back or remove my nokia software and remove the drivers or reinstall older drivers). I've given in with this for the moment.
So I'm stuck on 11.0.0.009 until Orange or Nokia decide to put this outdate out in the UK. Pretty annoying I have to say.

Have you grabbed the downloads off dailymobile.se? I grabbed them and there are no viruses in those.

I had the same trouble, Nokia 5800 on Orange and I got fed up of waiting for them to certify v20, so I debranded using those links and now am cruising along v20 (and awaiting v21 next week).

sionyboy, change your code to one of the accepted ones and then update to v21, i've just done that ...btw not a lot of difference in v21 except the menus seem to change quicker...

If the update was more fully featured I'd change product code again, but given it seems to be minor tweaks/improvements I'll just wait until it hits NSU in the UK, which shouldn't take too long (I hope!)
