Symbian system updates?

I doubt they are seriously able to answer your question about Symbian updates. *So a shameless plug for their product is not going to assist you with this question!* Basically all firmware updates are done via a Nokia Care Centre. The best way is to post a question in the newsgroup giving the current firmware revision of your phone and asking if there is an update, someone in the know here should then hopefully let us all know what the latest firmware revision is for that phone. Then if you decide you would like your phone upgraded with that revision contact your local Nokia Care Centre. -- 73 de Simon, VK3XEM. http://www.aca.gov.au/pls/radcom/cli...IENT_NO=157452 The views stated by me are my own and have nothing to do with any organisation I belong to,so the prick that tried to slander me can get FUCKED because it didn't work!

So what one calls "Firmware update" is actually a system update? Computerwise, it's generally not the same. You update the motherboard's furmware, and update the system.

Do try to give the right advice Maxim. Firmware CAN be easily updated by the end user if they have the right equipment (Twister, UFS, Griffin, JAF etc.). But if the phone is under warranty it's usually good advice to let an authorised service centre do the work. -- >>> Unlock Your Phone's Potential <<< >>> www.uselessinfo.org.uk <<< >>> www.thephonelocker.co.uk <<< >>> www.gsm-solutions.co.uk <<<

It can only be updated by a special hardware/software combination (see post of R. Colton). It can not be updated by just downloading and installing a newer version of some software. This is unlike a PC, which has its operating system on hard-disk, which can easily be updated. -- Anton.
