Nokia have very quietly introduced a self service option for their more up to date phones including the N70. The latest firmware is 5.0609.2.0.1, dated 01.03.06, RM-84. You can get this information by pressing #*0000* from standby mode. Likely as not if you had your phone in the last three month it will be up to date. The link for the N70 updater is: http://nds1.nokia.com/files/support/global/phones/software/NokiaSoftwareUpdaterSetup_en.exe You will need Windows 2000 or XP sp1, live internet connectoin, USB cable (not bluetooth) to do the update.

Before you try it back up your phones' memory. Then go to blindsea.com, mobile corner then third party applications and download the Nokia updater tool. It took me over an hour and a half to update the firmware and during that time you can't use your phone and if anything goes wrong you're likely to destroy the phone completely - according to the documentation. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ From: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Emma Wright Sent: 14 September 2006 14:17 To: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [access-uk] Re: nokia n70 and premium apps Can you tell me how to do that? I haven't had my phone long (about 3 months) so I'd expect it to be farily up-to-date, but I'm happy to give it a go.

I actually have Talks and Zooms, but I'm not sure if that is significant. 'Extended profiles' don't change profile when they are programmed to, and the other programs often won't even open. I've given up trying to use them as my phone tends to freeze so I have to soft reset it. I'm not sure how many others have experienced these sort of difficulties and if it is limited to the N70?

Recently however I installed TALKS version 3 on an N70 and found that all the premium applications would not work. When I went into the Extended recorder, for example, I got a long delay. eventually after about 40 seconds or so I could play and record files but if I chose an item from options e.g. license or about the phone just froze again. Have others had this problem with the premium bonus apps on the N70?
