I've updated to 110.02.127.... bad move... nothing fancy. but can no longer apply dark/black theme since the contact list fonts always remains black color irregardless of which theme you chooses leaving on the highlighted contact visible...

Anybody have solution to this..until new fix comes along, I'll have to stick to bright theme.... :-(

Hi from India. Just updated the firmware and except for the Bluetooth connections, which seem more reliable; nothing else has changed. The camera continues the purple haze and still no Black Berry connect. Guess we will soon see another upgrade from Nokia, may be as the year turns!

Congratulations!
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?

sa71
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...
simon
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.

phantomlord, also google maps lacks information in Belgrade. Perhaps Serbian government is slow in releasing accurate mapping information to the public?

Phantom Lord, I am going to ask you something unrelated to maps even though I am replying to your maps comment.
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

sa71,yeah I have noticed this too,nokia maps 1.0 had very good maps of major or medium cities,but now,belgrade is just few streets,it makes no sense.I tried to use older maps with this version of nokia maps but it doesnt work,so I switched to garmin

In India, the firmware/software update for Nokia E71-1 to version 110.01.127 09-10-2008 is available only at Nokia Care centers (I tried on the Nokia Software Update, but in vain). I got mine updated at a Nokia Care center on Nov-5.

Nokia Maps
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.

Not bad,but still not transparent like phonebook,just colored with blue.Speaking of themes here you can find beautiful themes with almost all icons changed,but calendar is still default though.

Here is the only theme I have ever found for E71 that has custom backgrounds for the calendar and contacts, the blue one on the top of the page:
http://www.e71blog.com/2008...
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

Phantom Lord — Wed, 05 Nov 2008 13:11:36 -0000

sa71,they've fixed phonebook,but not the calendar app,background is still white and I really dont understand it...I use dark nokia theme and it looks ugly.
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.
