If you wish to preserve this information then you should back it up before updating the firmware. Information stored on the internal disk typically includes data files such as your Contact and Calendar databases, plus application configuration files including registration codes. You can use PC Suite to do a full backup or you can use the backup to memory card functionality included on the phone. This stands for F irmware O ver T he A ir and will use the data connection of your phone to download software updates.
This allows you to carry out the process outlined above directly from your phone. Updates are started from the Device Manager application. An example of this can be seen in the screenshots below. Nokia recently announced their Phone Software Update utility , which enables you to update the operating system software firmware of your phone.
This is achieved using a PC application Windows only , a suggested broadband Internet connection and a USB cable in most cases this will have come with your phone. What is firmware and why should I update it? How can I update my phone's firmware? Go to the Nokia website and download the Phone Software Update utility. You should also consider reading the FAQ which will help you if you run into problems.
Install the software. Optionally, follow the phone backup procedure below. Start the software. The initialisation can take a few moments. Once the software has been initialised you should see this screen: Click Start.
You should also plug in the power cable to the phone. Updating the firmware can use a lot of power and by plugging in the power cable you ensure that the power does not fail during the update process. If it does your phone may become unusable. Thanks mate. I'll have to get in contact with Telstra to find out what's going on. The phone seems to get a bit sluggish at times. Will contact them next week. In reply to nica33's post on August 24, Not sure that new firmware will help with sluggishness in itself - doing a factory reset would probably be just as effective.
Note that you lose everything in phone memory when you do either of these, so be sure and back up first. An alternative that might help is moving all non-essential files - pictures, video, MP3s, docs etc - to the card to free up space in phone memory.
Nica, V4. You can't upgrade an N80 to an N80 IE. In reply to nickwells's post on August 31, I thought I had the N80 internet edition. Presently I'm able to browse the internet using my local wireless network. If my N80 is not the internet edition is there anyway I can upgrade the firmware?

I just bought my about 2 weeks ago, and I was just wondering why videos are not being recognized on my phone. Pictures and Mp3's work well, I just have a problem with the videos. My sister also had a until she got the recently, and she said she had the same problem.
Is it because of the Real Player, or possibly something else? Do I have to use it in a different format? Sorry if this is a dumb question. I'm just curious what you guys think could be the problem I have a bought new unlocked ATTWS branded from ebay Phone seems to work ok, on cingular network except a problem which just suddenly cropped up with no speakerphone and no audible ring.
