Will void your warranty..yeah..!! Illegal..?? I don't think so.

 

[paul_007]

yes u can fash ur cell phone urself , but it is too risky , u can go to nokia dealers and they willflash ur phone

 

[Pathik]

it ll void ur warranty but its not illegal for sure.......
and prankie u can flash 6630,n70 and n80 using a datacable dont know abt 3250....
99% it can be done 2.....
and its risky so dont blame me if ur fone goes haywire...

It will void ur warranty.The firmware is protected by nokia and the nokia software need to be cr**ked before using with datacable.U can flash 3250.

 

[prankie]

i know that its risky.. i'll bettr take ur advice and take it to priority center...
during flashing complete mem is erased.. i know that phonebook and calender entries can be backup'd but what abt messages, i mean sms'es.. and is there nyway to backup the registry so that the licensed softwares which are on my sd card don't ask for reinstallation after flashing...

 

[nik_for_you]

any site for downloading latest firmware?

 

[Pathik]

@prankie no the system files in c/ ll get erased after flashing so u ll hav to install them again....
neways wat licensed softwares r u talkin abt ???

 

[prankie]

not licensed softwares actually i meant symbian softwares (sis)... coz java apps have no issues.. but the symbian ones need to be reinstalled..
how can sms be backedup on pc??

 

[Pathik]

on cell copy the whole msg folder to ur mmc to back it up.... and u can also transfer it to pc....

 

[prankie]

dude i m using symbian v9.1 .. in this u cannot access system folder...

 

[gdatuk]

how much will it cost to flash N70 with latest firmware in nokia dealer shop?

 

[prankie]

If ur phone is with bill and is in warranty then it wont cost a penny!!!

 

[montsa007]

bacchon commerce leke doctor banne ke sapne mat dekho chup chaap dealer ke paas fone deke aajao

 

[mAYHEM]

dude i m using symbian v9.1 .. in this u cannot access system folder...

Select data tranfer when u connect thru data cable.Then in My Computer>Tools>Folder Otions>View>Show Hidden Files.U will see ur Sytem Folder in Removable Drive(E:\System of ur fone).Or use Card Reader

For c:\System,select Pc-Suite instead of data transfer,then Pc-Suite>File manager with show hidden files checked.Hvnt tried this one.

 

[prankie]

well in symbi v9.1 there is no system folder, instead u have sys, and that too can't be modified.. symbian did that for security reasons...
well somehow i backed up my sms's on my pc....
