Firmware update

For the record (and if el reg allow this post ;) to update the firmware whilst on Voda / Orange etc, you use a tool called 'NSS', which allows you to change the product code.

Nokia uses the product code set to your phone to identify the network operator. With Vodafone, for instance, when Nokia release a firmware update, they send it to Voda for altering to suit their customisations.

So by changing your product code from say Vodafone to Plum Euro1, the N95 will update.

1. Back up phone to mem card, etc

2. NSS your product code to euro1 (or w/e)

3. Update the firmware

4. Change back to manufacturer code.

5. Restore backup

6. Change back to euro1.
