a guy said to me: yes we have it (the update) but if you can't update with nsu maybe the update is not for your product code!
this is no possible: i tried to update with different product code!
i think that is not possible to update with nsu now.
WE HAVE TO WAIT! :(
lol now phone works great and much faster !
from Poland too and no update at all (unbranded)
sure you have a E71? ;-)
All I can say is DONT UPDATE,because phone feels the same,the speed is the same,camera is the same,everything is the same.First firmware was already reasonable stable and fast,so no reason for update because you will lose your hack and install unsigned apps.
Anyway I recommend waiting for the official release or not updating firmware at all.This is my warm recomendation unless you have problem with some bugs or you didn't hack your phone.
Salute from Serbia :)
camera seems to have a tiny improvement. the contacts background is no longer white (theme background). VOIP seems a little buggy.
but the worst of'em all - 110.07.127 is UNHACKABLE.
you can update through nokia care suite as well (google is your friend)
still waiting

i think this is a non public beta firmware...
And no firmware update for the UAE as yet.
They hardly ever announce one until after it's been available for a few
weeks.
I have Nokia E71-1(26), firmware version 100.07.76. This is apparently phone with code from Singapore and I live in Europe. This firmvare version does not allow direct screen search like the E71-1 European version, and I would love to have this feature.
My question is: If I change the product code to some European version and than update usin NSU, would I get the direct screen search on my phone; on the other hand, is there a chance here to screw up something like key mapping? I use only English on my phone.
This is important to know since everybody says that the new versions are unhuckable, and may not be return back.
Thanks a lot
What do you mean by make sure you have qwerty, it is NOKIA E71. Which NOKIA E71 does not have qwerty. Other thing, what does APAC mean just to make sure I know what you are referring to.
Thanks again
Thanks

But it's hard to tell if anything changed. The background issue mentioned above is a annoying one, but not a problem.
Gps is a little quicker it seems.
But hardly any difference with prior version. (110.07.127, dated 09-10-2008)
The reason you have to do it, is because, after firmware update, you get the phone totally free from any personal files and personal setting are lost too..
Other note: Since you probably have not done something like this before, make sure you do not interrupt the update process even if it looks to you nothing is going on (like the phone froze). Just leave it alone until the phone restarts on its own (it may restart more than once). When you get something like"update complete" than you set the time etc... Use again Nokia PC Suite to restore your personal files and settings that you had backed up before you performed the firmware update.
This will hopefully help you.
But something really cool happened yesterday. Martin (Menu -> Tools -> Speech -> Voice) said something crazy yesterday when I was on a date with my new girlfriend and she freaked out and said "who was that?" Oh poor Martin, he didn't know any better, he was just informing me that my account was getting low (pay-as-you-go contract which I used to start testing the E71 with before signing up to an AT&T 3G contract). I really like Martin but am having a hard time training him to sing like Brother Iz one of my favorite songs, "White Sandy Beach of Hawaii" < http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k_YfyKahP-0 >
Are there any other voices besides Martin and Ellen that I can load onto my E71 and choose from?
Come on Martin, sing for me, sing!!
I saw you in my dreams
We were walking hand in hand
On a white, sandy beach of Hawaii
We were playing in the sun
We were having so much fun
on a white, sandy beach of Hawaii
The sound of the ocean
soothes my restless soul
The sound of the ocean
rocks me all night long
Those hot long summer days
Lying there in the sun
on a white, sandy beach of Hawaii
The sound of the ocean
soothes my restless soul
The sound of the ocean
rocks me all night long
Last night in my dreams
I saw your face again
We were there in the sun
on a white, sandy beach of Hawaii
but i've found a new version of Nokia PC Suite 7.0.9.2!
english version: http://twadl.com/1gx
german version: http://twadl.com/1gz
APAC means Asian-Pacific model (only differs in language pack or some programs)
and by qwerty keyboard I mean to look at your phone and see if it has qwerty or qwertz or maybe azerty layout (just look at order of letters on keyboard).
If you have qwerty layout (and you most likely do) just use uk code like I did.
Salute from Serbia
Thanks a lot. I did not know all those things. I just thought all the keyboards on mobile phones are made by the same standard. Yes, I do have qwerty keyboard and I fully get your point.
Pozdrav iz Sarajeva. Nadam se da nemas nista protiv sto si pomogao Bosancu....Salim se, znam da nemas.
Without that Nokia PC Suit will not detect new firmware for your phone.
Update is online few weeks now.
Good luck !
By the way no update from here in Pitcairn Island.
naravno da ne,bilo mi je zadovoljstvo :)
Samo da sam znao ranije da se ne mucim sa engleskim :D
ako ti treba jos neka pomoc imas ovde moj mail,poz.
to everybody:
Sorry for the non english chating :)
I wander if you are glad you updated your fw after all. You lost ability to install unsigned applications, as far as I know.
Do you still get white bacgrouind wen you open calendar or contacts while using other than Nokia themes?
Do you get direct screen search on Asian e71-s after changing product code to UK and installing the new firmware? Is the direct screen search advantage since you still have to push control key before performing the search in order to have only letters displayed?
Would you recommend updating to the ones who did not have other issues with their E71-s?
Thanks?
I am a kind of mad at Nokia that they keep the most beautiful phone out there (E71) with such ugly themes, restricting other theme makers to fully implement their design on Nokia E71 by keeping original white background on contacts and calendar screens even when you install any other theme. With this new firmware they do not let you any more to install unsigned applications. That is bad, and I am not going to downgrade my phone by installing this new firmware

I am from bangalore, India
I am from New Delhi and no updates yet. Are we getting an update at all?

Euro version of firmware, which countries is covered by this? As I thought there is also one Scandinavia firmware. It's not like we're not European in Scandinavia! ;)
I'm not going to test these, my phone availability is too important for that, but it's good to see some leaks, probably indicates that we're closer to an official release.

About installing unsigned apps...almost every app can be signed with developer certificate,except irremote and my favorite menu editor.
They have fixed microfone bug which bug me the most :) All in all I expected more,for example menu transitions wich were already present in early beta firmwares,but I dont regret it because (as FCA0000 said) we dont know when or if the new firmwares will be hacked,so we can wait an year for hack, renouncing the good thing that new firmware bring us and end up with changing out phones eventually.

The rest of them still have white backgrounds. I hope you will like it, I do. However, it would be nice if someone can point out more themes that do not have background problems

I live in Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina, and back in May this year when I bought my E51, and beginning of August, when I bought my E71, there was detailed maps for my home town Sarajevo just like for any major city in the world. However, soon after I noticed I could zoom in only to major communications in this area. I checked also Belgrade, no detailed maps, Podgorica-Capitol of Monte Negro, no detailed maps, Skopje-Macedonia, no detailed maps, Tirana-Albania, no detailed maps,..., while Sofia-Bulgaria has detailed maps, every small town in Croatia has detailed maps, and so on...
Now I wander what kind of policy, when it comes to detailed maps, Nokia has adopted: Do they provide only detailed maps for the countries belonging EU in Europe or maybe for the countries where there is Nokia service centers. Again, I believe that at least Belgrade must have Nokia service center even though I am not sure.
I will remind again, it is not question of data availability for the maps since my home town Sarajevo used to was among the cities with detailed Nokia maps (to the tiniest street level). I have downloaded European maps from Nokia site and stored them on my flash card and the same results I get whether I have internet connection or not on my phone when browsing the maps.
these themes are best
Black&Blue or Black&Orange
Since, it seems to me, we both have the same phones (mine is Nokia E71-1 (26) , 100.07.76. 08-06-2008, RM-346), you might be able to help with this:
I noticed that my E71-1 qwerty keyboard is somewhat different from the European E71 qwerty keyboard:
Mine have open parenthesis "(" sign above letter o, and closed parenthesis ")"sign above letter p while European E-71 does not; mine have quotation marks " above letter l (el) and European does not.
If this is the case with your phone keyboard, did you loose the above inputs: (,) and " after you installed new firmware? It is a kind of convenient to be able to punch these characters directly rather than pulling special character menu.
P.S. If you want my direct email, it might be displayed if I type it like this: sa71(at)msn.com
hm my keyboard is kinda different,I do not have () anywhere on keyboard,mine is e71-3 i think,but now after update it says e71-1 (01) and perfectly matched with uk version,no wrong key mapping.Maybe you should wait for the official release of firmware for region of your phone,just to be sure all the key mapping remains the same.I'm sure once is released for the europe it shouldn't take long to be released for the rest of the codes...

No,its just lack of interest for smaller markets,goverment has nothing to with it.Anyway it doesnt matter because theres much better alternative like garmin,tomtom r igo for windows devices.
Now tell me, please, what differences have you noticed.
Did you get direct screen search on your phone now?
When you use other theme (that does not come installed by Nokia), do you still get white background or transparent when you open calendar and contacts?
Did they include or change anything as far as themes and icons?
Any changes on the menue and settings?
Anything else you have noticed?
Anybody have solution to this..until new fix comes along, I'll have to stick to bright theme.... :-(
