GadgetLover, 23 Feb 2012Yes, this is a topic i need some info on too..I wonder if anyone has made a backup of their ph... moreI made a backup of the entire phone before the update,
But i didn't use it because i wanted know exactly what i install on it so there would be no hidden apps or files on my memory.
I copied the '' CITIES '' folder which contained all my maps for 11 countries and my Videoes and Pictures to my laptop.
After the update,
It restored my C: drive but i didn't use the .nbu backup i created for the entire phone,
I just returned The CITIES folder and all my Videoes and Pictures, then i installed my apps back from the files i had previously and went shopping in the Store for others.

But am pretty sure you're be about to use the previous .nbu backup for the entire phone.

    Ashman, 23 Feb 2012When you install a new firmware or reinstall the old one... often C drive gets formatted clean... moreYes, this is a topic i need some info on too..I wonder if anyone has made a backup of their phone on their phone itself with the file manager backup option? Any idea what will happen if i update to Belle and try to restore the update that i made on my phone? I've done this successfully with old updates on many nokias but i have a doubt this will work with Belle.

Thus old installed files go. If you keep a backup of your entire phone, you might be able to get them... or you will have to reinstall the apps.
      As for Maps, install the new one for Belle... it's a better one.

To recog... moreHmmm..try a new usb port on ur pc..if that doesnt work, try removing the cable from usb port and reconnecting it one to two times while nokia suite is running and waiting to connect. If that also doesnt work, uninstall and reinstall pc suite with a reboot in between on ur pc.
          I have had similar issues like you with nokia suite and one of the above has always worked. Btw..i dont know if its only my observation, but on a windows xp pc, i never get errors with nokia suite but i do with vista and windows 7.

Connect your device to Nokia Suite once and next time it will connect automatically. When you connect your phone to the pc, a window will pop up where you can choose Manage with Nokia Suite.

                          To recognize the Maps the PC suite should recognize the C7 first. My problem starts there whenever I am connecting my Nokia C7 computer gives notification that new C7 connecting. The connection Type in C7 is by default PC Suite. However when the Nokia Suite is observed it do not show my C7 as connected. It asks "Connect the device."

                          Any idea on this?

                          Thanks.

After updating to Belle i noticed that to know % of ... moreC7-zak, glad to know you have upgraded and are enjoying Belle now. About the battery ... just download Nokia Battery Monitor 2.2 (Free from Ovi Store) and it will give you much more than just the % thing you are talking about... Although it is sometimes faulty, I think most (98%)of the time it is quite accurate. It also provides Battery Saving options as well give great and very useful info about your battery in a graphical interface.
