@ N8Fan

You've most likely got yourself a swap device which means you will have to visit the Nokia Care Point to get your phone updated. Please backup your phone before submitting it to the NCP because they will wipe all data during the update.

Cheers.

@ ssrki

I can't stress enough that you do not need any antivirus software running on your N8. It is absolutely pointless installing antivirus software because no viruses exist for Symbian^3/Anna/Belle devices. Furthermore, on the off chance that some snivelling moron does write a virus, the only way for it to infect your phone is for you to give it permission to install. And only a moron would do that. As such, nobody bothers to write viruses for Symbian/Nokia OS because it's pointless.

All the best.

Ray.

Hello george_k

I do remember you, hope your keeping well.

I've checked your product code and it seems there is no Belle update available for your device but there is the update for all other Greek N8's. This is possibly due to your phone being a swap device. What this means is that at some point the phone was submitted for repair and Nokia changed the motherboard. If this is the case then you will have to visit your nearest Nokia Care Point and they will update the phone for you. Make sure you backup all your important stuff before taking it to the NCP because they will wipe all data from the phone when updating it.

I can't answer any questions about Belle because my network operator are still working on writing the update for my phone so I haven't updated it yet.

All the best.

Ray.

amit, 08 Feb 2012hi Guys I am using leaked belle from past two months ver... moreThe version of Belle that leaked in December, 111.030.0609 is different than the offical version even though they are the same number. I've run both. The main difference I've noticed is the official uses less memory, I highly recommend it. To update used the most recent PC Suite, plug in via USB, and use the "reinstall" option. There will not be a prompt for the official Belle update as they are the same version. PC Suite will back up your settings for you and update you. Please note, you will have to install your apps again.

Thanks,
Charles

@ jbpianist28

Hello there,

It's good news and bad news I'm afraid. At the moment there isn't an official Belle update for Australia but Nokia are in talks to get an update available at some point. Have a read of the following thread from the official Nokia support site.

http://discussions.nokia.co.uk/t5/Software-Updates/Nokia-belle-Australia/td-p/1298515

Also, you can keep checking the following site for news on when the update will be made available.

All the best.

@ Ray,
Good morning Ray, i want your advice for some topics , but first i think i must give you details for my N8 (probably you remember me, i bought it at Dicember 2011)
Version PR1.1
Software version 013.016
Software version Date 27/01/2011
Customized version 013.016.329.01
Custom version date 02/02/2011
Language 013.016.07.01
Product code 059F053
N8 model
Type PM 596
Last update: none
Browser Version 7.2
FLASH version 4.0
Java version 2.1

1. Is it advisable / possible update to Belle?

2. With Anna_OS as we all know there is the "continuous auto-focus feature". What happens with Belle?
If someone has already updated to Anna and use the autofocus_video feature_application, whats the conseguence to this specific application when update to Belle?? (by the way, this xtra video app is official or not?
Thank you a lot, have a nice day
George_k (Athens, Greece)

You have two options to restore your phone. Since you mention your laptop switching off while updating it means your update did not finish. You can either take your phone to a nokia care point for them to reflash your phone, or you can download the firmware via navifirm, and then refurbish your phone via phoenix. Then there might be the option of doing the 3button reset to see if that helps.

If you have further problems i would be glad to try and help you.

Regards.
JDC
