You can check it at Nokia Care shop. They will do the upgrade free if your phone is still in warrany period.

I got a 6630 5-6 weeks back. Are you sure the new firmware is launched. Could you please give more details.

Every feature is same after upgrade .. new firmware is done for better support n working of the cellphone

With 99.9% certainty that after that you can throw you phone in dustbin.
firmware update require seperate hardware ..why spend wen it can be done for free at any Nokia Care Centre

Hey mobilegeek Please be more specific. Can you tell me where is Nokia Care Centre in Kolkata. I wanna inquire and if possible get it upgraded.

But whats the advantage of upgrading????

buddy firmware upgrade means bug fixes ur fone is more smooth

and no it cannot be done at home u need the cable (not the data cable) its like a matchbox plugged in ur battery and somethin is done and voila its done ur fone is upgraded

u got a new phone .. u are askin.. for firmware upgrade
..
IS THERE ANY PROBLEM IN YOUR CELL ??
..
FIRMWARE is reinstalled if .. there is a problem & a bug is fixed.. not otherwise.
its like drivers...u dont need one evryday & newupdates are rare

&

Press *#0000# to know the software version of your phone
u dont need to worry .. it should be something 5.03.xx

mine is 4.03 & its working fine

no buddy it is always good to keep ur fones firmware upgraded

I am not sayin that .. but people take it as something ki .. it will add some new software or feature to phone .. thats not the case.
in his case he got a new phone .. if its working fine there is no need for that. isnt it.
I get my ph updated .. only If i get time .. which will not be soon.

And yes ...

The latest version of 6630 is 6.03.08, but I dont think its available here.. they are lazy .. If anyone got post here.

buddy firmware cannot be upgraded at home and dont risk ur mobiles life by doin so

OK OK that was just a question man. one more thing will all my data be lost if i upgrade my firmware through nokia care. or it can be backed up and restored easily.

Phone memory will be deleted ..
MMC will be safe .. they will give u the mmc
..
Yes you can take the back up ..
1st .. go to contacts>options>copy to mmc
2nd .. inbox ..> options>other>memory in use>mmc
..
And 3rd .. Go to Organiser>MemoryCard>options>Back up phone memory

You are done

yes dude but when u reset the fone memory all apps installed in ur mmc are useless i installed profiexplorer(cracked) on my qd

then pressed *#7370#
then when i opened the profiexlorer it restarted my fone

"in short a home made virus 4 ur cell"

Nothing happens to anything installed in mmc

No Offence To Above Moble Geeks .if You Dont Know What Is Firmware Then Dont Speak About It.
Firmware-it A Virtual Host Environment Used On Series (60,70,90....)
And Many Symbian Based Cell Phones

It Can Be Easily Upgraded By Using Just Your Data Cable ,and A Software Named Phoneix(with The Mobile Firmare ) Which Can Be Easily Fetched Online

@ montsa007

Firmware can DEFINATELY be upgraded at home... i had moto E398 and i had upgraded it firmware at home only .. and it does not need separate hardware jus a USB cable, some software and the firmware ... Thats all !!!

P

Yeah....
I too updated the firmware of my SE W800i at home without any hassle.
Wonder if it's the same with the Nokia handsets....

Nokia Phones firmware cant be updated without a special box AFAIK and the firmware files of nokia r not openly distributed.If yes give me the link.It can be done on moto phones(firmware can be downloaded from their website) and installed by data cable.Nokia Care do hv the latest versions available for flashing.

Some info I found on updating Nokia cell phones
What I need :

Drivers
FLS-4 Drivers

Software
PhoenixBlackBox_v7.0
Phoenix
Wintesla

Installation Steps :

Drivers
Run FLS4207.Drivers with PBB2 not connected.
PowerOn Your PBB2 ( I used 7.5v and -(°+ Polarity. )
Insert USBCable ( male-male ) on PC and then in PBB2
System will start searching drivers for installation... let system do that for You
wait ... there are some drivers to install, so be patient.
when complete system will tell You new hardware is ready.
Now You can start BlackBoxTool and see how Your PPB2 is configured.
Now You can "GO Support" and download what You need.
Note: - PBB2 here stands for Phoenix Black Box 2.

<snip> anything ahead will be illegal

this shows that just USB cable isn't enough.
I am not a expert or something at this. Can anyone who has more knowledge give more information.

BTW, I can't show the source as it is an illegal link.

PBB2 is box that is used to flash nokia and other phones.It costs few hundred USD.
But if u hv a Nokia BB5(3250,6630,6680,6681,N70...) u can update the firmware with the supplied dku-2 or ca-53 cable.heres the link *howardforums.com/showthread.php?t=913725

Hmm thanks mayhem.
I don't really know much about this but I'd like to know more on this topic. Let's see what more info I can collect.
So, it seems it is possible but you should be careful or you will have a very expensive piece of brick in your hand.
