Hussein,Further to your various messages, I've just run the software updater and it tells me there are no updates available and that the latest is 20.115 (and a few more figures) which I have. Incidently this is Model N86 MP, whatever that means!)

Hi Carol, The latest as of now is 30.0.9. To check your firmware version, dial *#0000# when on the standby screen. Note, this may not work if you have a branded phone, although I'm happy to check which networks are currently supporting the v30 firmware if anyone would like. It's just looking up a list really so no big trouble. The same goes for anyone using any other Nokia phone for that matter, happy to help. _______________________________________ Have a pleasant day, Kind Regards and Best Wishes, Hussein.
