    Is this applicable for India also?

  • shivaram said:

    I think i have to wait for the update for India, because its still FWV 20.0.0.16 only :(

  • Jay said:

    Is this version out in Australia? Still on FW 20.0.016!! Arghh!

  • Ali said:

    Yep updated successfully to V30.0.018…..Some of the changes:
    1. Auto-rotate working more seamlessly
    2. Something has happened to the text, for the better IMO
    3. Standby screen has a different ShareOnline 3.0 icon
    4. ShareOnline still missing the flickr n ovi settings (argh!)
    5. OS seems faster at times (gallery,music etc) not too sure
    6. Cant get real player to play .flv videos :(
    7. No new visualisations in music player :(
    Yes, the Hello Carbide hacks do still work….:)

  • Vajid said:

    Strange.. my real player now does play flv files and I kinda like it coz it has some other settings like Quality, Zoom.. WOW.. I have the visualizations in the music player too but they are just crap honestly. Overall it’s a pretty good upgrade. Windows Live Spaces still seems to be broken with Share Online 3.0.. cant blog!

  • Vajid said:

    oh I found another addition atleast it wasnt there earlier.. when somebody calls, there is an option of “send message” on the right hand side in case you are busy and can’t answer. The text gets prefilled when you press “send message” with “Sorry i’m busy”

  • Matthew said:

    @Vajid – that’s there on my V20. I think you have to enable it in a menu.

  • Vajid said:

    Ok.. then I am pretty sure they made that setting as a default in the new FW as it used to be “Silence” earlier.

    Update my n95 classisc but N958gb says no upsate available

  • Vaibhav Sharma (author) said:

    Users in India will as always need to wait for a update for their product code. I can’t understand why Nokia insists on doing this.

  • Phul Singh said:

Thanx

  • lou said:

    1..They cant play says unknown format??

    2..I was under the impression that the update included the abilty to play theses flv files via the realplayer?? have i got this wrong are the files being stored in wrong location or is this a bug? Is there a way to stop the gallery viewing theses files??..!!

  • Sahil Deswal said:

    Hi guys. Why do u guys have problem with updating firmware, making the phone dead. Just because u were not carefull. Im not disappointed on my first update of N95 8GB from v11 to v30(this is the first update in my life). What I did was little caring & intelligency.

    Step 1-
    I backed up all data from my N95 8GB to PC through PC Suite(Only phone memory backup). I did the mass memory(or Memory card) backup seperately via PC.
    Step 2-
    I did a HARD RESET by pressing *#7370#(enter 12345 for security code. It may be different if u have entered one earlier), which would clean-up the mess in phone, simply a complete refresh. If anyone has problem doing this way, they can use startup HARD RESET by holding green call button(Send key) and 3 and star(*) togather and power on the phone until nokia hand logo appears.
    Step 3-
    i gave the phone a full charge, which is strictly recommended.
    Step 4-
    Opened PC(fortunately a laptop), connected phone through USB and keep charger connected, to prevent sudden loss of charge. Latest PC Suite and Nokia Software Updater(NSU) should be installed. Connected to internet. Run NSU and started update. It took me 3.5 hours to download 105.3mb firmware, then update phase started. It took 6-8 minutes. phone entered TEST mode. Finally update was complete and phone started.
    NOTE:- do not touch the phone, power it off, or disconnect USB cable. Insert SIM (please make sure no call or SMS incomes, by diverting) and Switch to “general” profile(strictly recommended).
    THATS WHAT I DID!
    a little care can save the day

    If they dont have update for their product code, the can change it through Nemesis Service Suite(NSS). Instructions can be found by a little google search. They should change to a product code that has update available, like the EURO one

  • shivaram said:

    I just got the update v30.0.0.18. but i dont find some change log as listed here in this blog.
    like..
    - Share on Ovi: did not find
    - Mosh & Ovi Bookmarks added to Browser – did not find
    - New baseline for Startup settings
    - New baseline/upgrade to Music Player
    - Current consumption improvements (for e.g. WLAN scanning): not tested
    - New baseline for VoIP (with significant error corrections): :(
    - Incoming call number is displayed in additon to name of the contact

    even i had to reset the device as what Nahid says, i turned on the auto rotation feature and my device was rebooting automatically.
