Nokia Nseries :: Update N8 To Belle Without Using PC / Nokia Suite?
Feb 21, 2012
I've been trying for hours to update my N8 to Belle with the Nokia Suite installed from Nokia yesterday, but after the screen goes blank I end up in an endless loop of "Connection Lost" and retrying. I kept trying for over three hours yesterday, and again today. So, I tried to install via "Check for Updates" on the phone itself, but this says "No updates". Is there a way around this?
- i started to have Wi-Fi issues, connection dropped more than usual;
- Every time i clicked over the "Climate Mission 3D" it used to launch "JoikuSpot" instead;
- Nokia Store keeps reporting there was a new Maps Suite v2.0 even though this update/version was already in place and even if you performed the installation following that notification...;
So to get over these issues i went for a "clean installation", this wasn't possible, i tried to reinstall the system using Nokia Suite, it didn't work as it always gives back the error 12054;So, i tried the hard reset first, this worked, it wiped out everything except the info at the SD card but this step brought me even more issues, so i tried again using Nokia Suite and the issue remained, i receive the error 12054 every time i try reinstall the system.So apart from the mentioned above, i've got the following new issues:
- Wifi connection drops even more often;
- Apps installation fails a lot, thanks perhaps to the Wifi connectivity issues;
- Word, Excel, Ppt, OneNote, Broadcast, all these are gone;
- Some apps simply don't open, example: default QuickOffice;
I've reported this issue to Nokia Support and the answer was go to the next Nokia Care point..
I live in the uk, with a c7 running anna. I connect my phone to the pc, and the recognizes it, so i go to the update section in nokia suite 3.3.86, it then says my phones current software is 022.014, i click refresh, and it says my phone is up to date, but i know it isnt! I have been looking forward to symbian belle, now its here i cant get it!
I have a nokia n8-00 with the product code of 059B663 and I have the latest nokia suite (3.6) Nokia Suite says everything is updated, i livein the philippines, they say nokia belle refresh is the latest here..
I checked the Software upate application in my Nokia N8 and it says N8-00 Device software - Use your PC to update So I downloaded the latest Nokia Suite 3.3 and I checked the updates available there and I did not get anything for Nokia Belle. I also checked my product code 0599330 in the Nokia Belle availability page and it says available.
Just got my first N8 yesterday and already so miffed with it that I feel like going back to the iPhone 4. Its currently on Anna but want to upgrade to Belle so I install the Nokia suite 3.3.86 which is where my issues started. It takes me 20 minutes just to get to the software update tab due to the constant message of not responding! When I get to the update tab I search for updates and says after 10 minutes cannot connect to server. I tried re-installing but seems to be just as bad.I am running a 64-bit pc with high specs so doubt its my computer.

I'm using an N8.I tried to update to Nokia Belle using Nokia Suite but the process always gets stuck during backing up the phone. It said that it cannot back up the phone and there was the black-and-yellow exclamation sign by the 'Messages' in the back up list.
When i search from my phone for an updated software it finds the update but tells me to use my computer. i connect my n8 on the pc, open the nokia suite and when i search for update it says No updates available.
I updated my Nokia N8 to Belle this week, at first I hated it but i am growing to like it, until today.
When I connect my phone to my laptop with the USB cable I cannot see the pictures in Windows Explorer, the folder where they should be is just blank, this is very fustrating as it means I cannot cut and paste photos off my phone, i can only copy them via the import function.
I have had my N8 for a long time now and never had this problem. Also, it keeps saving the images as 001, 002, 003 etc, even though I select in options to save as date.
I do not want to have to do a hard reset and loose everything and have to install it all again which i had to do when i updated to Belle.
Since the belle update i cant bluetooth my songs to a different phone its all on but no option to send anymore has it been removed ? Also what happened to the file manager and the office cant seem to find them.
Is update for Belle FP1 available now for N8? I heard somewhere that it will be released in June 2012. There's already a video about N8 having the FP1 update. I tried updating thru Nokia Suite but its taking a veryy long time just to check for update, i think its past 1 hr already. is there an alternative way to upgrade? we have no wifi here so i cant update thru my N8.Updating thru Nokia suite is becoming a pain. i dont know why its taking so effin long. its not downloading yet its just on checking status.
I tried updating my 603 using nokia suite and it completes successfully but when the phone reboots and I check the firmware by dialing *#0000# its says 112.XXXX. And belle feature pack 1. I tried FOTA event that's not happening. After Processing the update the download and installation never begins.
Software update on phone tells me to go online and get it done there. So I do and it downloads ok, all 272MB of it, but it keeps on disconnecting when trying to install to the N8. The phone switches off and stays off. I leave it for 10 minutes because of a post I seen just to be on the safe side but still nothing.
Just updated my N8-00 to Belle.But - no Scandinavian language are available.Which means - e.g. sms can only be entered manually,since the T9 is on English (or Portugeseee or Italian or Spanish or.........)How the BEEP do I get a Belle in Danish?
I have flashed my phone to Symbian belle, but i cannot seem to find the weather widget. I have the weather app on my phone, but ni widget. where can i download it? Or enable it?
Anyone else who owns a nokia 701 in Canada been able to update to belle feature pack 1 and 2? I know FP1 has been available for months but it hasn't appeared on my sw update or nokia suite update. However just today I got the homescreen widgets update so I know I'm still getting updates. Anyone been able to update to belle FP1 or FP2?
Since the update, whenever I turn my phone on after either turning it off myself or because the now poor battery has made it turn off, my phone asks for a security code. It didn't do this before, so I don't know what I am supposed to put in. I put in 1234, it tells me it's wrong, I press cancel and hey presto I can use my phone! What's that all about?
Since updating to Belle on my N8 the battery power has significantly gone down. I use my phone the same way every day. I have turned off the clock screen saver too and still goes down quickly. Before it would last 4 or 5 days, with light use of the camera and internet, now it won't last past 3.
