Hello all.

If you need to know anything about the Belle update or need a solution to a common problem either during or after the update then please have a read of the official Nokia Belle FAQ.

      Hello smartboy222

      Your issue isn't unique and as such Nokia have released the following solution.


      If you are using Comes with Music or Music Unlimited in your phone, you might lose the licenses for your music after the update to Nokia Belle. However, you can retrieve your music licenses very easily: When you then start playing a specific song in your phone’s music player for the first time after the update, licenses of the whole corresponding album are automatically re-downloaded (internet connection needed). We recommend that you first open the music store application on your phone and log in using your account credentials. If your phone asks you for a confirmation during the retrieval, simply select 'Yes'. If you want to re-license all your music at once, you can do this via your computer by using Nokia Suite together with your music store.
      Start Nokia Suite and select the Music icon in the taskbar
      Copy your music from your phone to your PC by first selecting your phone’s Music Library, then selecting "All Artists" and finally opening the Tools menu and selecting "Copy to Computer"
      Wait until all music files are transferred
      After your music is transferred select again all music files in your phone, open the Edit menu and select "Delete"
      Confirm the deletion by selecting “yes” and wait until all the music files on your phone are deleting (which takes approx. 1 minute per 100 songs)
      Sign into the Comes with Music or Nokia Music Unlimited service (depending on what you have been using earlier to download songs)
      Copy all your music files from your PC to your phone via Nokia Suite. Select your PC’s Music Library, and then select all music files you want to transfer to your phone and finally open the Tools menu and select "Copy to phone".

      Hope that helps.

      Ray.

        Hello amit.

        You are not alone with this issue and Nokia have relesed a solution to the problem. Please read the following statement taken from the official Nokia support pages.


        Q: After the update to Nokia Belle, my phone asks me to enter new security code. I do this and get an error message stating “code error”. What should I do?

        A: Please try again a few times. There are very rare cases in which the phone incorrectly asks for new a security code but does not accept the entered code. In that situation the problem vanishes by entering any code until the phone stops asking for it. After this, the code you had entered before the update works again normally.

        Hope this helps.

        Ray.

                Hi to all especially Ray who's trying to help all the people in this forum. I have been using N8 since nov 2010 with all official updates. i came along with various problems during this period but i couldn't give up my N8 as i was not confident that changing it would have brought me in a better position. after the belle update the phone feels very fresh and highly responsive.The touch responce of the screen is very very good and the apps load much faster.also i ve noticed that the browser and email are much faster.what happent though after the update and restoring of backup(all by nokia suite)i lost everything i had on the phone before apart from pictures,contacts and notes.wifi keys,bluetooth pairings,msgs,email accounts,profiles,settings,apps,call history all gone.
                searching in e and f memory i managed to restore some of the lost apps. anyway i hope and wish to all a good update when available and consider my experiance so not to loose valuable staff. Once more thanks to Ray

                  Hey N8rs. I have an interest in the NOkia N8 and the Nokia 500. I wanted to know which has a smaller hang time. I don't think that the N8 hangs does it?

                    Thanks man your the BEST! I have downloaded both BELLE versions, for future refurbs, but I will most definitely follow your advice about updating through OVI suite.

                    If it is not a problem could you please post some links for movie and tv series downloads for N8.

                    Thanks

                        But It contains GPS files that improve the Accuracy of you Ovi maps so its best to keep it installed.

                          UPDATE ON SWAP DEVICES.

                          Don't bother to go to a Nokia Care Point with your swap device. Instead please refer to the following post on the official Nokia support site and follow the advice given.

                                  You are not alone with this issue. Nokia are aware and are currently investigating. Keep checking for an update over the next week or so for a fix.

                                      Yours is definitely a swap device so you will need to visit a Nokia Care Point to get the phone updated.

                                      When Nokia care repaired that phone they replaced it's motherboard with a generic one but what they should have then done is reprogram the board with your original product code and IMEI number, but have obviously failed to do this.

                                      All the best.

                                        Thanx a million. Belle is now available !!! I had another issue with the mfe client not being able to download ms exchange server emails due to the error 'mandatory server policy failed'. This issue was not resolved on numerous forums of nokia since mid of last year when users upgraded to anna and I was hoping it to be resolved with the Belle update. But seems like it has not happened as yet also even with the Belle Update
