Original N96 software?

6 replies · 7,472 views · Started 08 February 2010

Is it possible to download the N96 original software because my music player and image viewer seems to have disappeared from my phone. I've tried to hard reset but no luck?

Download Nokia firmware update tool to your PC.

It will check for new firmware and if it does not find any it will ask if you want to reinstall the firmware you have.

hi, with the new NSU there is no option to reinstall the same firmware, what can i do now to format it??

please help!

I would rather you took this to a Nokia dealer but You can try this at your own risk.
This will take the handset back to an out of the box condtion so if you have bought any maps, music or apps then dont do this as they will not be there after.

press the following green + * + 3 and power the handset.
Do not let any of them go untill you see the handset has fully started.

You can update the firmware of the device using Nokia Software Updater. If the music player & Image viewer are missing in the handset. Updating the firmware of the handset will get the applications back, as they are bundled with the firmware of the handset. To download Nokia Software Updater.
