iPhone 3.1.3 Firmware Out

by Paul Joseph February 3, 2010 Featured

All you iPhone/iPod touch guys, a new firmware iPhone OS 3.1.3 is now out. However this release is just a maintenance release I guess, with just bug fixes and patching security holes with no new features added to it. But it is highly recommended to upgrade to this version for security issues. So Fire up iTunes on your desktop and update your iPhone’s firmware. Note : This update will undo the jailbreaking process, so if you have a jailbroken iPhone/iPod touch I would recommend you to not upgrade to 3.1.3 immediately and wait for iPhone Dev team to jailbreak it.

Nokia N86 gets bumped to v21.006 Firmware

by Paul Joseph January 13, 2010 Featured

Well, Looks like Nokia N86 also has got a firmware update to v21.006 from its previous version v20.115 . It seems like this is just a maintenance release aimed at improving the performance of the device and fixing all the bugs in the previous firmware with no special features attached to it. Although the Nokia N86 supports User Data Preservation (UDP), we highly recommend you to take a backup of all your data before kickstarting the firmware update to prevent any data loss. You can update the firmware of the phone either by Over the Air (OTA) on the device or Nokia Software Updater (NSU) on the PC. If your device does not detect any new firmware, then relax, the update might not have reached your region product code yet. The firmware update will eventually roll out to all product codes of Nokia N86. As this is a maintenance release, there has been no specific changelog for this firmware release as yet, but we will update you as soon as we get one. Also, if you find anything new in this firmware release, do let us know via comments below.

Nokia E72 gets a firmware update to v22.007

by Paul Joseph January 12, 2010 Featured

The Nokia E72 has got it’s first firmware update since its public launch. There’s a new firmware update to version 22.007. Although the SW Update app on the phone indicates that a new phone software is available, one cannot update the firmware Over the Air ( FOTA) .  You need to use Nokia Software Updater (NSU) to get the job done. While there is no official changelog as of now, looks like this is an update to fix some bugs and performance related issues. Although the E72 supports UDP or  User Data Preservation its highly recommended to take a backup before proceeding with the update. We are not taking a chance ! We would love to update the firmware Over the Air and avoid downloading some 160 MB of data and trouble our networks. Although the E75 had some issues one being dismal battery life, it was a breeze to update the firmware  on the E75 over the air. Although the E72 supports FOTA . looks like the rollout through that channel is slower than NSU.
