Do you remember the Nokia N97? Nokia’s flagship that, according to Anssi Vanjoki, failed? Apparently users of the Nokia N97 can now update their N97 from v.21.0.45 to v.22.0.110. Firmware v22.0.110  does not bring major improvements but as always we do recommend to update the firmware. As for now, version 22.0.110 is available OTA only but it should be available through the Nokia Software Updater in due course. Sporting UDP (User Data Preservation) you do not have  to fuss around with backing up your data. As always it may vary from region to region when the firmware is made available.

Changes and improvents from v.21.0.45 to v.22.0.110

Data package content, corrections or changes :

  • Corrections to TOP ~15 issues reported in the field
  • OTC cases fixed:
  • Wrong Cherry number used in Russia and Spain
  • “System error” displayed occasionally at first start-up. Reported e.g.  by Vodafone.

Genius cases fixed:

Contacts performance improvement:

  • #144324: Voice dialing not working when there are 2000+ entries stored in Contacts.
  • #134637: Phone prompts “Memory full” when searching for names

Localisation & language variant specific:

  • #154188: Message editor crashes and writing fails if predictive text input is On. (Arabic UI, v15 language variant)
  • #146139: Scrolling to left and right works the wrong way around in Photos – Captured when using Arabic UI
  • #147509: QWERTY keypad input does not work correctly with Calculator. (Chinese language variants: v19, v25, v26)
  • #139207: “Slide to Answer” localization error  (Hebrew)
  • #140654: Localisation error in Bluetooth Audio – “Set as (un)authorized”  (Czech)

Misc:

  • #141675: “Security module error” shown in display occasaionally at start-up
  • #147863: Occasionally device hangs and restarts soon after start-up.
  • #137558: Device keylock opens (although it shouldn’t) when dialing a number using a carkit. (CK-300, CK-600, also some non-Nokia, factory installed car kits)

Others:

  • Default Nokia tune is played as ringing tone for incoming calls instead of the one user has defined in Profile settings. Also sometimes device ahs stopped alerting for incoming calls. Both issues are now fixed.

    i found this to be better thn the previous version.. good job done..

  • Abraham Asiedu

    My phone version was 11.0…., i just bought it about 2 weeks ago. Learnt it was buggy, so didn’t bother so much about the bugs i was seeing. But hey, heard of this update and tried it yesterday. It’s awesome!!!

    more space on c drive, phone getting way closer to the iphone (when you tilt, the screen tilts to landscape), and the ringtone which usually was reset to nokia’s tune issue is also gone. great in every sense.

    It’s only my facebook which is not opening, but i guess that should be an app issue or a connection issue not difficult to solve.

    Great update – nokia keep it up.

    need to update my phone

  • Nokishit

    Never, and I say NEVER in my life I was SO DISSAPOINTED about a mobile phone called FLAGGSHIP of NOKIA; To me it turned out to be the SHITSHIP of ALL phones EVER MADE,
    and worse the N8 is likewise So for me NEVER A NOKIA AGAIN !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    I have this dissasteres phone now 1 year and I have to reset it at least 5-8 times a week including removing the battery for 2 minutes; when I make 3-5 pictures, the shitthing sais Close several app’s to clear memory, but I NEVER use App’s to avoid any crashes.
    For even 25 € it is a complete chaotic thing, this N97 and it was made by chidren who were poisened by all the shitty things in this shitphone.
    I can go on but I got a get a new phone today; an LG
    GOODBEYE NOKIA !!

    Has anyone else seen the battery drain get worse since V22 was issued for the N97?

    battery life on normal usage was around 3-4 days, now down to less than a day and a half (and seems to be getting worse)

    I have done the usual N97 stuff (taken out the battery and shorted the three prongs inside the handset – note NOT the battery!!!; backed up everything and done a hard reset….only takes me about an hour now…lots of practice over the last 18 months!; swapped to a spare battery that is effectively brand new).

    Only 6 months left on contract…….and counting.

    I have owned a Nokia N97 for about a year now, so far I have had to do two firmware updates and hard reset the phone no less than 20 times, the first update addressed some serious errors in the phones stability, and today after updating again I learn that the worst two issues to plague the N97 (STILL NOT ADDRESSED) is memory (RAM) recovery issues and the overuse of the internal memory by software installations, what’s the point of having a MASSIVE 32Gb mass storage only to be almost useless because if one installs all the applications that Nokia offer for the phone via Nokia updater you would have a total of 12Mb remaining BEFORE running any applications. Which as you can guess will soon seize up for lack of available RAM.

    The Nokia OVI maps update to get that working properly is 9Mb, and Nokia insist that the update must be installed to internal memory ONLY!

    All in all my personal experience with the Nokia N97 is poor at best and I fear this is the case with many N97 owners.

    In conclusion, if you’re thinking about buying a Nokia N97…. DON’T
