My N97 is currently running v21.0.045. I've heard various reports about bugs and problems with the latest firmware update. Is it worth updating to the newest one, or should I just wait for the next major release?

Thanks.

No bugs or problems for me in the update to v22.

I would however, advise backing everything up and then do a hard reset before installing the new firmware. Then restore everything except the Settings.

This gets rid of all the "crud" from the previous firmware.

Hope that helps.

Cheers. I'm fairly reluctant what with all the apps I'd have to reinstall... I don't agree at all with Steve L and the rest that it feels "therapeutic"!
