Nokia N97 get an official firmware update, piles of fixes ready
Less than a month has passed since the Nokia N97 hit the shelves and here comes its first official firmware update. Bringing a whole load of bugfixes this new firmware should have a pretty positive impact on user...

I am just amazed by the number of problems, errors in the n97 phone. Shouldn't Nokia perform a very comprehensive UAT (user acceptance test) internally and externally before releasing/launching the phone to the market? Or we are just guinea pig as the pioneer owners of n97 to help nokia test their phones? I wonder.
Come on Nokia, surely this is not acceptable right!?

such a waste, i am a NOKIA fan but this is nothing for a flagship
already got N85 so N86 isn't an upgrede.
haven had anything new since my N95 8GB.
great so now we wait a year for the next Flagship with the real specs.
Just cause it has a Qwerty and touch screen don mean its the Ultimate phone
don care about MPs but video and WIMAX and better battery has to be next

Yet Nokia Marketing still limit themselves by not accepting and delaying customer plea. Considering that Philippines is also a big market also. Philippines have many new Chinese Immigrant that comes from Mainland China. Yet they dont sell Nokia phone with Chinese interface capability. Its just a matter of shipping some of their phone sold Taiwan, HongKong and China. But upto this present the Marketing department still refused to make necessary adjustment.

i agree, nokia should get things at least mostly right before releasing a major flagship...what an embarrasing letdown to have to keep making minor corrections here and there when it's supposed hit the iphone head on. i'm no iphone user or apple-fanboy, but at least their phones are at least 95% stable with what it has when released

Some of you do realise that Nokia has more than likely been working on this since launch of the N97 don't you !? You'd be a foll to think otherwise and besides do you really think that this firmware would be out within the first month if they were not already working on most of it.

My phone is working sweet after the upgrade.
I think people complain because they have nothing better to do!

> In reply to Anonymous @ 2009-07-01 22:24 from q{XwIf you don't have the contact name stored on your phone with the number, how do you think it is going to display the name? By reading your mind??? Even Nokia can't pull off this little stunt, although i bet the fanboys would have you believe otherwise...lol. Silly question really, unless you assign a name afterwards, then the call logs should get updated with the name.

When apple release a product, it's allways stable, when they release an update, it adds new features
when nokia release a phone, it's software is unstable, and when they release an update, IF they release an update, it's to fix what was broken, and it's still broken after the update
