Is it safe to flash the North-American version of the 5100 with the
European firmware? Unfortunately, there are no official updates for the
NA firmware (v3.06) and it is incredibly buggy. Actually it sucks.
According to the service centre person I spoke to, the North American
version of the phone uses a different processor, and flashing it with
the Europan firmware could damage it. Unfortunately I could not get any
more information on that subject. Does anyone know if that's true? It
seems a little bit strange to me but I am no expert. Why would Nokia
use different hardware on the same phone?
TIA
