Could take a good while, mine took ages ‘cos my downloads were running slowly!
Give yourself a bit of time when you’re not doing anything to do it.
******Make Sure you back up your phone before doing it!*****
nokb.ly A lot of you are still waiting for Nokia to release the Symbian Anna update in your country. If you are impatient, there’s a way to do it manually. Here’s a video how to do it, as shown on a Nokia N8. follow twitter.com WARNING!!! This voids your warranty and could possibly break your phone. I suggest waiting for the official update if you don’t want the risk of breaking your phone! You’ll need two applications: NaviFirm+ and Phoenix Service Software 2011. NaviFirm can download all the official Nokia firmware files necessary from Nokia’s servers. You can grab the latest version from Symbian-Toys. Phoenix Service Software installs the files you downloaded from NaviFirm to your phone. I found the latest version in GSM-Forum. Just search for “Phoenix Service Software” and download it from the most recent post. The version I have in this video is Phoenix Service Software 2011.24.002.46258. The latest firmware (as of September 11th, 2011) showed version 24.1, but the firmware looked like it’s meant only for Middle East and Africa. I knew for a fact that version 22.1 was Symbian Anna, so that’s the firmware I selected for the Nokia N8 in this video. Let us know in the comments if any of the steps in the video are unclear. Good luck and enjoy Anna!
Guide to Update Your Nokia 5230 Firmware
Mobile phone firmware means the OS (operating system) of the phone with certain applications pre-installed. The firmware is saved in the mobile’s ROM (read only memory). The firmware can be of varying size for different phones for eg 50mb for Nokia N70 and 120 mb for Nokia 5230. Whenever a new phone is released it’s hardware may be finalised but there may be a number of problems to the software which may not come out during the initial testing and only be realised once the phone enters the market.
Usually the problems may be due to the bundled apps, which can be solved in newer versions. There can be performance issues i.e, phone’s hardware can’t handle the load that OS takes to run on and applications these can also be handled by optimising the firmware for the OS. The phone can also show instability that is the phone restarts or gets switched off with no reason. This is due to the OS not being fully complete.
New features get added to the phone with updated firmware. Also updating your firmware is recommended for application compatibility and to reduce security risks.
Earlier updating firmware was something like for the geeky but now Nokia with a set of tools it provides makes it very simple.
So there are three ways to update your Nokia 5230:
1. Giving the phone to customer care.
2. Updating using Tools provided by Nokia.
3. FOTA (firmware over the air) update.
The first one is the best option if your phone is under the 12 month warranty period. Giving it to the Nokia care centres is free during the warranty but it may cost you once the warranty is over.
Nokia provides Nokia software Updater and also Ovi suite which can be used update your phone. I recommend Ovi suite as there is bug with Nokia software updater and also Ovi suite supports app updates separately. Just go to tools, software update and let the Ovi suite check for updates. Once the update is found click install and follow the on screen instructions.
Note: backup all your data, make sure your battery is fully charged.
Nokia with it’s newer phones introduced FOTA. Type *#0000#, select options, and then press check for updates. The phone connects to Nokia update server and if update is found it will prompt to download and install. The main advantage of FOTA is that no computer is needed and the updates will only be of small sizes 10mb.

Comment jailbreaker n’importe quel iPod Touch, iPhone, iPad sous le Firmware 3.1.2, 3.1.3 et 3.2 ! Que ce soit un model MC, MB, MA, un 3Gs, un 3G, etc. ! Le jailbreak est possible même sur le iPad au 3.2 ! COMPATIBLE PC ET MAC !!
