Nokia Nseries :: N8 - How To Restore Operator Firmware
Feb 1, 2012
I bought my phone on a contract with Tesco Mobile, and as expected it came pre-installed with their operator junk and wouldn't let me update to the latest version.
So I used a 3rd party software to install the generic PR 1.2 firmware (latest version), and it's working great, very happy .
Now I'm left wondering... How do I restore the operator firmware incase anything goes wrong with the phone? (and no, i didn't make a back-up). If I restore the phone to factory defaults, will this restore the operator firmware?

I have a Nokia 5800 XpressMusic. I downloaded Nokia Suite 3.7.22 and I am trying to upgrade to latest firmware version. The website says it should be v.60.0.003 - [URL].

I then ran Fiddler and I found out that a request to the following URL is being made and it is not successful: [URL]

I've been having issues with the latest Belle update, so I though I'd re-install via nokia suite. During the install, Nokia Suite caused a problem with my PC and my PC rebooted. Now, I can't turn on my phone, it vibrates and the white light on top flashes but nothing comes up on the screen and then eventually shuts off. how to get it back? (I've tried a few variations of holding down several buttons at once, but none have worked yet.)
My problem started when I tried to make my N8 a bootable pendrive. I needed to make my E: (phone memory) NTFS. I copied everything, formated E: into NTFS and copied all my stuff back again. Thing is that N8 doesn't support NTFS. My apps that were placed on E: stoped working. So I quitted my bootable pendrive idea. I formated E: again using N8 itself, copied stuff back again. I even restored last working phone backup. Aaand my apps still don't work.
but how to restore the backup?If I go to Applications - Office - File mgr. - MENU nothing there.If I hold down the Backup Menu it takes me straight inside Backup, the icon only shows Backup and nothing about restore function?

I have to manually set date/time as it never get it right It also is showing my operator as "Local network Operator" on the live tile and on settings mobile operator is "23430" I have a UK T-Mobile Sim - so it should probably say "EE" now its merged with orange.That said everything works re calls/data.
