If you get your firmware upgraded at a Nokia Service Centre, do they do it why you wait and will it delete software you've installed on your phone?

well it takes about 5 minutes to flash the phone so it probably depends how busy they are.

Your software is installed on the phone's c: drive,i think that only the z: drive is needed to be flashed for an firmware upgrade,but then again,that is just my opinion,so i might be wrong

Yup, sounds about right; flashing the z: drive. I should have thought that through myself 😮
Thanks 😃

Actually it takes about 5-6 minutes to backup the phone (depends on how much stuff you have on it), about 7-8 minutes to flash, and of course count another 5-6 minutes for the restore process. All-in-all takes 20-25 minutes to update the phone. Best thing is to backup the phone @ home (that will work for everything xcept Java and midi ringtones), and give it empty to the service center.

It takes about 2 minutes and we can do an update that will erase everything and we can do an update that saves your data like the phonebook and stuff like that.

Hi,

Why should the upgrade taking up another 160KB? Why not just change the ROM for the Z: drive. :evil:

3.6MB is already so pathetic.

Just called the Nokia Care Centre (Singapore), they said there was no news about the upgrade at the moment.

My phone hang a couple of times. Have to take out the battery to reset it.

But overall, I am very pleased with 7650. So far its the best Nokia I ever had. Just cant wait for new SIS SW releases. They are damn cool. Small but pretty handy when its mobile.

cheers!

Nokia Care Centre already replied me with such information. Please read the Announcement at the top of this forum for detail. 😉

Happy to know another new user from the "Land of FINE" 😃

hei since they can flash the Z; drive after all, do you think it is possible to remove the game snake from the Z; drive ?
cause i dont like the game and it take about 200 kb
so i can heve more memory left to play wit h:P
anyone have the same thought ??

Is it possible to upgrade the mem. of the NOKIA 7650? I haven't opened the phone yet but I would like to know what type of media is used to store the data. As for the firmware, it is possible to upgrade it at home - look at Duhamobil.cz, they have the PIN-out of the N7650 and my local mobile shop has the necessary SW. The only problem would be obtaining the firmware..

You can upgrade at home if you have the proper tools and knoledge,you can not upgrade using Bluetooth and IR,that is my opinion,deleting snake will do you no good cause it does not take any of the C: drive space,which is user important (You can not store anything on the Z: drive).Best advice,go toa a nokia service center.

Why don't you all stop arguing and get yourselves a 3650 like I have, imported from Romania..... a hell of a lot better than a 7650 (still a smasher of a phone though)

Afew Questions.... Is the ringing tones very soft?? N the speaker phone very soft too.... is it normal for all of u guys?

Anyone using the N7650 PC Suite? I cant seems to use it via my infra red device. But i can use it withmy N6610 phone... anyone have the answer for this???

I went from 3.16 to 4.39 a month ago, and reloaded a backup from PC suite v1.1.0 (on W2k server) via IR, without a problem.

If you're running XP, do a search on the forum, there have been a lot of issues with connectivity and XP

Nope I have the same version and no problems with ringtones or speaker phone. I would have phone checked. Sounds like a speaker problem.

[quote="Palendrone"]from what i read so far it is more stable ( not crashing as much ) + if gets too full will not lock up and not repower as a few ppl have found but on the downside uses 120KB of space to upgrade it ![/quote]
