I got a new N80 on 3 with the new firmware,
V 3.0618.0.2
23-05-2006
RM-92
Nokia N80 (45.02)

I guess everyone will want it, I will post any problems with it here.

actually i got the firmware file but im like not sure of installing it on my N80, i found this note

N80 v3.0618.0.2 is only for v45 and v55 (H3G UK and Austria)!!

Ok I've had the phone 3 days now and have noticed an image gallery issue. The quality of the images is not that great...a bit blocky, if I open an image it will only show it at it's best if I press option then cancel, maybe it's something to do with the memory card read speed, does this happen with anyone elses?
Also the radio will not play through loudspeaker, you only get this option when you plug in the headset.

I think the headset acts as an aerial.
Loud speaker works with the headset or without for music player.


Thats one thing sorted then...cheers.

It first appears at a lower resolution, but then if you wait a split second it will then show at full quality, this is so you can scroll between the pictures quickly. This is standard with pretty much all digital cameras.

Hi peeps..

Hoping someone can advise me...as I'm a bit of a novice..

I've been reading the posts about flashing the N80 and I understand that the software is updated to sort out any bug/problems once released.

I've got a N80 on O2, running version

V3.0617.0.6
03-05-2006
RM-92
Nokia N80 (33.01)

So my questions are..

What is the latest tired and tested version that I should flash this with ?

What is the best language pack to use as I only use english?

Thanks in advance for your feedback.

Was loosing track of whats the latest SW.

and your language pack V01 is good for you also, its what I have in my N80

I will upload the new flash files (3.0618.0.2) when i get the languaje packs, so stay tuned 😉

Just to confirm...

A freind of mine just purchased an N80 on O2 down here in southampton, and it has the new 3.0618.0.2 firmware. Didnt check the date with it.. sorry!

My 17 firmware seems very buggy... anyone else get graphics glitches when changing modes on the camera?

Goto Camera > options > Image setup > shooting Mode. Now press up or down to select a mode... the icons go grainy like static on a tv....

It has done this out of the box, none of my old N80s on other firmware did this. wierd

Can anyone please tell me if there's a language pack containing western english and brazilian portuguese? I have searched several message boards and was unable to find this information. Thanks in advance for the help!

"anyone else get graphics glitches when changing modes on the camera?"

I thought the static looking graphics when changing modes was suppose to be there? i think it looks quite good hahaha. is it actually an error then? 'cos it seems to be exactly the same on each icon for exactlythe same amount of time.... hmmmmmmmmm? :con?

Mine is identical, I also thought it was meant to do that, doesnt do when the next icon is not on the screen...so version 18 has this error... if it is one.

BUGS! IMAGES & VIDEO IN GALLERY>
Is it me or is this option really crap, half the time it doesn't know whether to show thumbnails or the bloody boat image! and when it DOES actually try to work the images you open are poor quality, I've mentoned this before but now it's begining to annoy..don't even try the slideshow option!....what do I do?

My mate has an 02 phone with earlier firmware and see what his is like...

UPDATE.... It's not the phone, it seems to be an error with the Three network theme that must stop or slow the memory on the phone, I set the theme to Nokia and everything worked so much faster...WTF?

VERDICT: '3' phone owners......bin their theme, it creates conflicts and slows the phone down BIG TIME.
