To all power users, i would seriously recommend NOT updating. I updated my 603 today and the result is bittersweet at best.. You all know the good stuff about fp1, let me tell you the drawbacks. Firstly, its proving to be very difficult to hack fp1. Important apps such as Xplore are not working, some of the apps are noticeably slower than before, even opera mini has a slightly longer start up time. Asphalt 6 ran buttery smooth before, now it has a very noticeable lag. Also, the video player does not have options anymore, yes, you can't even see the video details. To me, as a power user, the update is not wortj the drawbacks :/

      Trying to get this update whole day. Now it appeared in the update menu and updating ota. MS apps 2.0 came yesterday and after that power consumption have been huge! (just backround used 150% today!) Hope this fixes this problem also..

      Location is Netherlands and phone is 6 months old 701 from Finland..

        What about the cpu frequency on nokia 603 is it upgraded to 1.3 GHz or is it the same as it was with belle(1 GHz)?

            KF, 11 Apr 2012like it or not, these are the most underrated smartphones a... moreyou need to try something new. Nokia is 2 years back of any android and 5 years back of any ios. Symbian is good but hardware is miserable only is good for people who has a lot of time to waste like retired peaple. Is a good phone with a wallpaper like a smartphone.

                    on my 701. Update removed all my created folders. transitions are more clear (tilting). don't know whats new in to the status bar. built in mobile data usage tracker. one this thats faster is searching apps on the phone (when pressing menu then pressing the search, it took long to show the keyboard) and when pressing settings it used to load quite long. Options menus and keyboard looks different. still playing :-)

                            What annoys me is they removed the option to disable theme effects. There is no reason to use effects anymore with belle, the phone could go faster, but you have to wait for the effect to end :/
