@ fathervince
thanks for the info. will try it today. however, hope it works as im from asia and they say the firmware is not available for asian handsets... gee what a rip off.
there are a lot of heroes here who lambasted the N82. i wonder if they even own the N82?
pathetic. the only other forum i went to was the 6233 and i had nothing but good things for the phone, although it was super ugly but it was durable and sturdy. i use that now as my 2nd phone.
have a nice day all

A few notes before updating your firmware:
1. Backup your phone memory using Content Copier
2. Restore your phone data/settings after the update since the application shortcuts will be deleted even if the you installed them in the memory card.
Note: UDP seems to work now and unlike in my previous Nokia S60 software updates stuff such as text messages, contacts, custom settings and even downloaded themes remained on my N82 after the update so there's no need for reinstallation of themes and apps as well as restoration of other files.

Kabayan! I do have the latest version of software updater on my pc. Everytime I run the application on my laptop its says device is not supported lolz I was even able to update the firmware of my friend's N92 on my laptop. That is kinda weird really.
Thanks kabayan!

Kabayan! V11 is already available on our product code. I tested it the other day and it shows the new version, but i don't upgrade it, i usually let the Nokia Service Center do it for me. Maybe you don't have the latest Nokia Software Updater on your pc.

@mw4@,
I owned an N95 8GB for 53 days and frankly despite efforts to match the picture output quality of the N82. I sold my N95 8GB and got an N82 and I have n regrets whatsover. I think your rating of 9 for the N95-2's pic output is too high. Even an 8 would be generous already. No doubt the N82 owns the cameraphone crown as of the moment.
Again, I am basing my comments on actual experience not online reviews. ;)
As for the firmware version 11.0.177 for the N82 it is not available yet to Asian versions and is limited to European-made versions. That's too bad coz Nokia has been screwing Asian users for quite some time now and in fact even the latest firware for the N95 8GB was limited to Euro versions only as well. :(

Anyone know how to get rid of the "Show Message" option and just show the text message when I receive a text? It's annoying to have to hit Show Message every time. Can't find a setting that disables this..

and i don't like sliders cause it will going to have an issue in the long run for it's sliding mechanism. i think the best slider maker is motorola. they're always spot on.

so waht if n958gb is the first DNLA certified mobile?!
it doesn't make my n82 any less different than it was when n958gb was not yet certified by DNLA.
and frankly, even if the world sayz n82 has got the ugliest of designs, worst keypad, plasticky casing..etc..etc..etc..it doesn't change my opinion or admiration one bit on m' n82 esse.
heck, what if DNLA certifies NOKLA 850 coz it has dual BT,analog tv, and inexpensive... are u gonna throw off ur n958gb outda window and get urself a NOKLA 850??
lovin mah n82 to bits...

hello? N73's speaker is way louder than 6233. and not to mention much better quality. it would not be name music edition for nothing..

@ PNSJ
As good as Nokia 6233's speaker? You're not serious, right?
The 6233's best asset is its speakers. No other phone, whatever brand, can beat 6233's speakers. Motorola E398 is second.
This phone's strength comes from its camera. N91 has the BEST audio quality. I personally believe that N95 8GB is the BEST all-rounder phone available in the market, as it is the FIRST DNLA certified mobile phone!! Not N82, not N95, but N95 8GB!
