Tutorial that will teach you how to update your phone’s firmware with nokia site
Here’s a tutorial that will teach you how to update yourphone’s firmware to a Nokia original version (without your operator’spersonalization) with NSU (Nokia Software
Update – the official Nokiaprogram).
NSU reads the product code of your phone and it searches its databasefor a newer version of the corresponding firmware in order to upgradeit. This is why you will need to change the product code of your phoneinto a non-branded product code, before running NSU.
Download the « NSS » software in order to change the phone’s productcode. This is a shareware program that you can download on the site
Code:
http://bphreaks.brinkster.net/files/NSS/NSS10373b.zip
then download any programme which allows the activation of any disabledoption (search google) like gsm arena magic for optional i haveattached a link below which is optional to that
And finally, download NSU here:
Code:
http://www.nokia.co.uk/nokia/0,1522,,00.html?orig=/softwareupdate
NOW WE CAN BEGIN:
Install NSS
Install NSU
Connect your phone and wait for Windows to install the drivers.
Open NSS and click on “Scan for new device” on the right-upper part of the window
Click on the icon « Phone info »
Click on “Scan”
Open « gsm-magic » without closing NSS, then push the button « Enable » of “gsm-magic”.
As you can see, now you can change the product code (on the right ofthe « phone info » window of NSS).
For a Nokia 6680, type the productcode 0521637 (this is the product code for France!) and then mark thecase “Enable”.
Now press “Write”, and your phone’s product code will be changed (youmight think that nothing happened, because the phone is still in normalmode, and the changing of the product code only takes a couple ofseconds, but don’t worry, the product code changed !).
Close NSS and “gsm-magic” and you can proceed now with the NSU flashing.
When the flashing with NSU is over, start-up your phone and you’ll havethe pleasant surprise that your phone’s firmware is the latest Nokianon-branded firmware in date!
NOTE: I advise you to disable any antivirus and firewall on your PC during the flashing.
In order to find out the product code for other phone models, downloadthe firmware for your phone model, connect your phone to NSS, click «Scan », then « Flash », and after that look for your product code whenon « Market » you will see your country. Write down this number, thenyou can start the manipulation as described above. Anyway, we will soonhave the product codes for all the models, so we won’t need this step.
