Cel de-al doilea firmware update se presupune ca va creste si mai mult durata de viata a bateriei si va imbunatati  performantele conexiunilor prin Wi-fi.

Telefoanele Nikia Lumia 800 detecteaza in mod automat cand un update este gata pentru a fi downloadat, singurul lucru pe care va trebui sa il faci fiind conectarea telefonului la calculator si lansarea optiunii Zune – pentru utilizatorii de PC sau Windows Phone 7 pentru cei care folosesc Mac.

Printre cele mai noi imbunatatiri aduse se numara:

• Fix pentru disparitia tastaturii touch in timpul tastarii
• Fix pentru problema de sincronizare a Google Mail
• Fix pentru accesarea locatiei cu ajutorul caruia optiunea Me din People Hub transmite informatii anonime despre punctele de acces Wi-Fi catre Microsoft doar cu acordul tau
• Fix pentru encriptarea certificatelor digitale
• Fix pentru problemele legate de Microsoft Exchange Server 2003 – in noua versiune, la reply va fi vizibil si mesajul de e-mail original trimis
• Fix pentru Voicemail – problema care aparea in cazul retelelor din anumite tari europene si asiatice, in anumite conditii

Update-ul cuprinde fix-uri de stabilitate dar si functionalitati noi.
Pentru a va instala noul firmware aveti nevoie de Ovi Suite pe care il puteti descarca de aici. Aveti de asemenea nevoie de un cablu USB. Dupa ce va instalati Ovi Suite si va conectati telefonul prin USB, in meniul Tools selectati “Software Updates”. Utilitarul Ovi va identifica telefon si o sa va ghideze prin update. Nu uitati sa faceti o copie a datelor de pe telefon, urmand ca acestea sa fie sterse odata instalat update-ul. Update-ul se poate realiza tot cu Ovi Suite.

Nokia E72 este un telefon foarte interesant, cu un ecran de 2.4 inchi, tastatura QWERTY precum si cu un design sobru dar subtire, perfect pentru mesaje si e-mail mai ales pentru cei ce petrec mult timp pe drumuri.

Desi update-ul de firmware nu vine cu imbunatatiri drastice de functionalitate, potrivit primelor raportari modificarile vin sa rezolve cateva din problemele pe care telefonul le are in acest moment. Din pacate, updatarea nu poate fi facuta OTA (over the air), si oricum nu ar fi recomandat intrucat dimensiunea pachetului este de 160MB. Asa ca va recomandam sa va conectati telefonului la calculator prin cablul USB pe care l-ati primit in pachet, si sa folositi NSU (Nokia Software Updater) pentru a instala noul software.
Ramanem insa la recomandarea ca ar trebuii sa faceti o copie de siguranta a datelor existente pe telefon.

Mai multe buguri au fost reparate, si s-au adaugat si cateva functii noi legate in special de browserul web, e-mail dar si Ovi Maps.

Deocamdata noul firmware nu este disponibil OTA (Over-The-Air) dar poate fi instalat folosind Nokia Software Update.

N97 – ultima versiune este 21.0.045

Cateva dintre cele mai importante imbunatatiri aduse de acest firmware sunt legate de stabilitatea sistemului de operare per ansamlu, precum si legate de scrolling si uzabilitate.

N97 – ultima versiune este 11.0.045

Acest update este destul de maricel (are 160 de MB) si este disponibil deocamdata doar prin Nokia Software Updater (NSU).  Printre imbunatatiri enumeram : update-ul browserului, cantitatea de memorie disponibila in momentul bootarii precum si fixuri de stabilitate si fiabilitate in partea audio/video.

Si N900-ele pe care il am in teste zilele astea m-a notificat de update si s-a oferit sa il downloadeze.

Din pacate updateul de soft nu se poate face OTA (over the air), in mare parte si datorita marimii acestui release (160 de MB), si nici nu avem un chagelog mai departe de “bug fixes” la acest moment.

Update-ul se poate face prin NSU (Nokia Software Updater). Nu uitati de backup inainte de a aplica update-ul.

Aparent modificarile nu sunt mari, cateva fix-uri la problemele avute anterior, si cateva imbunatatiri la streamuri dar nimic foarte mare. Stam cu ochii pe change-loguri si daca apar noutati va vom anunta.

Daca aveti de gand aplicati update-ul de mai sus, nu uitati sa va faceti un backup cu Ovi PC Suite.

Versiunea 201.12.01, are nici mai mult nici mai putin de 153 de MB, iar dupa cum stim cu totii cateodata un update de firmware nu inseamna neaparat modificari majore in platforma telefonului, ci doar cateva imbunatiri minore.
Din fericire, acest update nu face parte din cele exemplificate mai sus. Update-ul aduce Ovi Contacts, Facebook, YouTube si MySpace din start. Dar asta nu este tot. Clientii de N-Gage, de Nokia Messaging precum si cel de Share Online au fost imbunatatiti. Viteza calendarului dar si a sincronizarii s-a marit considerabil prin optimizarile facute de Nokia in ultimul update.

Ce altceva ?

Un browser updatat si-a facut locul in v.201.12.01 pe langa versiunea noua de QuickOffice cu suport pentru fisiere Office 2007. Asa ca nu mai asteptati, si updatati-va E75-ul.
