HI Guys,

I have a sad news for you...Yesterday i updated my mobile to Belle and it was good and working fine for almost 4 hours. Suddenly it got switched off and when i tried to turn it on it wasn't. I was totally screwed off and today i took it to the Nokia care and they said that they haven't received the official belle yet.
When they look at my mobile thy said it is dead and they have to send it to Head office to repair it and it will take 7-8 working days to get things done.
The mobile was taken only 2 weeks back so i am totally confused what happened.
When i asked about the belle update in India i was shocked to hear that they haven't received the official frimware.
Any one had a similar experience before please let me know how long will it take to repair and will they change my motherboard or any other accessories if they are not able to repair will they replace my mobile with a new one .

Nokia i did not expect this from you....

Thanks in advance guys .

      yes it is a smart phone but its very disappointing because it really can't carry out everything it is designed for as its specifications say,I am using it but it just freezes at anytime,can't even open at the back atleast to take out a battery to switch it on and off.when it freezes you can't press nothing even a button very very disappointing.It only have 5months

            i can't upgrade my phone. Nokia suite doesn't
            recognize my username and password. It says
            'invalid credentials'. I also opened a new account
            but it doesn't work. Why? Please anyone help me.
            Thanks.

              After updating my N8 to Belle last night, I am not able to play my music downloaded from Nokia earlier and receive a message "'Licence for (song).wma' expired or missing. Get new licence now?" When I opt for YES, "Sorry we can't sign you in - Ovi music is now Nokia music. Blah blah get your Nokia account user name". Why can't Nokia do a smooth migration for its customers?

                            There are still a few product codes that haven't got the update yet. It's early days yet so it should appear soon.

                                    You've most likely got yourself a swap device which means you will have to visit the Nokia Care Point to get your phone updated. Please backup your phone before submitting it to the NCP because they will wipe all data during the update.

                                    Cheers.

                                    Ray.

                                      I can't stress enough that you do not need any antivirus software running on your N8. It is absolutely pointless installing antivirus software because no viruses exist for Symbian^3/Anna/Belle devices. Furthermore, on the off chance that some snivelling moron does write a virus, the only way for it to infect your phone is for you to give it permission to install. And only a moron would do that. As such, nobody bothers to write viruses for Symbian/Nokia OS because it's pointless.

                                      All the best.

                                      Ray.

                                        Hello george_k

                                        I do remember you, hope your keeping well.

                                        I've checked your product code and it seems there is no Belle update available for your device but there is the update for all other Greek N8's. This is possibly due to your phone being a swap device. What this means is that at some point the phone was submitted for repair and Nokia changed the motherboard. If this is the case then you will have to visit your nearest Nokia Care Point and they will update the phone for you. Make sure you backup all your important stuff before taking it to the NCP because they will wipe all data from the phone when updating it.

                                        I can't answer any questions about Belle because my network operator are still working on writing the update for my phone so I haven't updated it yet.

                                        All the best.

                                        Ray.
