Hi,

A bit of a clarification as well.  The SIM is only needed for NSU and FOTA
updates.  I'm not actually sure why it even requires it, as, based on what I
said before, it's not actually used in the detection check.  That's why you
can use any SIM in an unlocked phone, but if the product code restricts the
available updates, you're not going to get anything regardless of which SIM
you use.

Sorry for any confusion there.

Hi Steve,

Unfortunately, the SIM actually has nothing to do with the firmware
detection.  It's all based on product code.  That's why you can change the
code, leave the SIM in there and it'll still update.

Of course, if you're flashing with something other than NSU or FOTA, than
even the product code doesn't matter as this security check is overridden.

Best,

Hi,

It doesn't only depend on the phone, but the Sim card you have in there.

If for example, you have a Tmobile sim in there, then you would get Firmware
20.015, and not 21.006, which is the latest.

All the best

Steve

Hi Hussain

I currently have v20.115, I tried to search for a further update but got a 
message saying that no updates were available.  What would be the reason for

this?  My phone isn't branded on any network, it was bought directly from 
Nokia.

Thanks

Pritesh

HI,

The current status of N86 RM-484 (Europe) models is as follows:
Nokia's official latest release is v21.006
O2 UK are the only UK network to have approved v21.006 for use on their
handsets
T-Mobile have approved up to v20.115
Orange UK have approved up to v11.043

I could not find a listing for Vodafone in the Nokia Firmware Database.

HTH.

Hi

On the subject of software updates, I recently purchased an N86 directly
from Nokia which had software version 10.5 or something.  I managed to
update to 20.115.

However, I read on an earlier posting that Version 21 was available, is this

correct?  If so is that directly from Nokia or is it a version supplied by
one of the networks?

Thanks

Pritesh
