It would appear that nobody have taken notice of what i have said few pages ago. I changed my product code, flashed and bricked it even though the NSU reported a successful update at the end. It has reportedly happen to many other people if you google it. Most of them happened because they tried to change the product code in order to update their firmware.
Here's the video of the exact problem i'm having after updating the firmware. Enjoy

Whether you want to heed my advice or not, it's up to you. I'm just sharing my experience. I have since sent my phone to Nokia Centre and i think it's ready for collection tomorrow.

Well, I was just sharing since a lot of them were complaining about the slow update Nokia is having.

Could it be due to you trying to debrand the phone and using the wrong product code? I believe none of the malaysian sets are branded and I tried to use the same product code similar to Malaysia only difference is the Country.

Changed product code to 0586300, upgraded firmware and now mine is working fine.

Probably, well my phone is branded under Singtel, got it along with a postpaid line registration, and debranding a phone and updating it has been proven to be working all this while, until now. That's why i was surprised. Since your phone isn't branded int he first place, maybe it's fine doing it. Maybe not for a branded phone though. Hmmm..

If its unbranded, I myself would not bother doing all the product code changing thingy... it still sounds risky to me and it would void your warranty.

If it was me, get to a NCC with the update. If I can't find one or its too far and the update is not up on the internet yet, just wait loh!

One more thing, to those who may not know or realise yet, dun bother checking for updates on the Nokia Malaysia website (the part where you type in your product code to check). Just plug in to your PC, run the Nokia Software Updater (NSU) and see. In the past, the stupid website has been known to be outdated rather than updated with your update!

How did you check if you dun mind me asking?


Added on July 3, 2009, 10:43 amOk, in my case I updated my firmware at the 1 Utama NCC on Wednesday. But I just tried with the NSU again anyway, just to see what it says, it says my current version is V11 and the update is also V11. I did not proceed with the update after that.

So it may mean that if you just try to update using NSU, you may be able to get it already. I dunno. Worth trying again, in any case. My product code is 0586199.

wrote a non-tech-y review on my blog. firmware update is out already is it?

I like the pouch, can even attach a wrislet there. but I have to agree, quite difficult to take out the phone. Always accidentally pressed the camera button unless if put it in the other way round.

I'm so fed up.

My phone crashed 4 times today and I had to hard-reset them and go through the trouble of restoring the backups.

If Nokia is still not giving me a firmware update I'll just sell the phone off.
