ZOMGitsCJ.com is reporting that the Nokia N79 has received a firmware update to v30.011 which apparently includes improved stability and tighter Ovi integration. The update should be available OTA (type *#0000# on the standby screen) or through the Nokia Software Updater application.

I know that the NAM versions of the phones are behind- I get that. We still haven't gotten the v20.175 update, so now we're two versions behind! That is ridiculous!

Isn't there a way to just download the update files from the internet and just run them on the phone?

Unregistered, that's exactly what the update process does.

Haven't seen a screenshot of this yet! Anyone know what all has been changed. From the description, sounds like Ovi Contacts has been added to the FW.

I guess Nokia is really working hard these past few days on integrating all the features of their Ovi service to their products especially to their Nseries devices. That is really good! Anyway, do you know if the Nokia N85 is also going to receive this update? It's because I have an N85, and I have observed that whenever Nokia releases a firmware update for the N79, the N85 also has it automatically, but this time it seems that it is only the N79 which is eligible for this update and no word on the N85. I've been searching all over the web about this, but I haven't seen even a single screenshot showing the changes that this update brings, unlike in the previous firmware (version 20.175). I just want to ask if this update changes the current icon pack of the N79 to Ovi icons? It's the trend among the latest Nokia devices right now, and it would be great if they implement that in this latest firmware. Thanks!

My N85, bought sim-free direct from Nokia UK shop (internet) is still not getting the v20.175 update. This is ridiculous, since that FW update was over 3 weeks ago! My N85 product code is 0572869, but still it is not receiving update. Come on, this is a sim-free phone Nokia... why not update?

Likewise, my sim-free N79 bought direct from Nokia UK online is still on 11.049...

My white N79 (Product code 0568302) bought from the Nokia store on Regent Street, won't update from 20.175 O.T.A. or via N.S.U. Has anyone managed to update a UK phone yet?

At long last V30 is now available in the Uk as of yesterday, I've just updated but where's Ovi contacts? I though it was to be built into the existing contacts app. I see Nokia still haven't fixed the powersaver bug.
