Hello did you notice anything about Speed? Ram Management? Able to close Music/Menu? Camera improvements? anything???

Installed this firmware last night. Only problem I had was that when I inserted my memory card 8 of my apps. would not re-install automatically as they had always done in the past. Came up with 'file corrupted' ?. Have installed new firmware five times so far on this phone & it's never happened before. I decided to format my card & re-install everything.
Other than that everything is working ok. All my bluetooth devices were recognized. Phone start-up seems quicker & generally faster all round.
Handy Taskman also loaded at startup, which it did'nt on last firmware.
Will keep you updated.

I had a problem with some apps, Just set the date back 6months and installed then they worked.

How do you put stuff in your handy taskman?

[SIZE="4"][B][B][FONT="Arial Narrow"][B]Dear friends,

I need some valuable information about updating my N73 ME. I have only computer during my work and I cant install the NSU over there because i have no admin right. I heard there are someways to update the software without NSU or even without a internet connection. I have a good speed internet connection. Please advise me.

thanks,

Updated last night and I can confirm that the Bluetooth issue has been resolved. That's all well and good, but I went and bought a new GPS receiver because of that issue !! LOL

Still, the missus can have that to use with her 6680 and then when she inherits my N73 (after I get the N95 8GB) she can still use the BT77 and I can benefit from the 44 channel goodness of my BT441 Holox.

As for the new firmware, once I've checked all my other apps, I'll be able to give a better, more informed opinion, but at this early stage, all seems well, which is a vast improvement over last time's debacle !!!
