A firmware update to the Nokia 5530 is now available. Going from v20 to v30 includes some additional applications, performance improvements, and most significantly, universal kinetic scrolling and S60's latest version of Web. Full details below.

Read on in the full article.

any word on a bluetooth fix in this update. my bh 503 works fine when playing music but on calls it looses the bluetooth connection and i must remove the battery to use bluetooth again.

i really hope v30 fixes this.

People dont seem to be interested in this phone. Hardly any comments on how the experience after updating.

Unregistered,
Afraid I can't comment on Bluetooth headsets, I dont' have any with me to test.

Can anyone else confirm?

Well, it seems like my first comment wasn't posted... The v30 is much better than the previous. It's much faster in all ways, I like the default browser for the first time, love the new music player and of course kinetic scrolling in all menus. All my problems are also solved after this update. It's really a nice update.

I upgraded my phone. It took around 10mn without any problem. Some icons have light modifications. The synchronization application has changed. The Web Browser is faster. By default web pages are displayed in full screen mode with kinetic scrolling. I'm also using Opera mini on the 5530 and it also look faster. So it is a general improvement of the phone.
Once the upgrade completed, I asked for an update on installed applications. A new version of contacts was found and I upgraded. Search for a contact is easier, since all letters are accessible in a unique page to filter the search.

it does play vdos but not in the wmv(windows media video) format... it plays in the 3gp format that is the format of Nokia.

I'm in the United States, and just checked for updates but nothing was available yet.

I have updated it yesterday, and it's much better... The phone is faster, i like the cosmetics in the music player, the kinnetic scrolling is much faster etc...
