I got a question about updating the firmware on a SIM-locked N95.

A friend of mine got a N95-1 locked with T-Mobile. She had work done on her phone so now it's SIM-free. She's thinking of upgrading the firmware from v.10 to v.14 that is allowed by Nokia for her branded N95. Question is, would her N95 still be SIM-free or would it go back to being locked with T-Mobile?

I would sincerely appreciate any reply.

      Hi All, I'm in the US and have the N95-1. I wanted to upgrade to v20 and changed the code using the NSS s/w. When I ran the Nokia Updater, the first step shows an availabled upgrade from v12 to v20, then it downloads the 114.9MB file, but then on the 3rd step it says "Upgrade Failed". Nothing happens on my phone. Can somebody help?

        I haven't updated with v20 yet but i can tell already without having done it that it's going to make my n95 smaller and lighter!

        AWESOME.

                      Hi guys,

                      Can anybody help me? My question is: If I have a Nokia N95-3 (North American version),can I use Nemesys software to change the language pack? I would buy the N95-3 because it supports the 3G in US but I'm Italian and I would have the Italian language included. Thanks a lot in advance.

                          hey has anyone had troubles restoring their information? I got to update my phone and did a back up before that. But now i can't seem to finish restoring it. The proccess would freeze at 73% and so I lost all my contacts... i don't really care for the rest of whats backed up except my contacts, does anyone know a way to retrieve it? or make that restore finish?
