    I finished upgrading a while back, demand paging is simply amazing. Now I can open multiple application without any “out of memory error”. And camera is way faster. What can I say, feels like i just bought a new phone :D.

    Sorry to go off topic, but will demand paging be implemented for N73 anytime in the future? or its only for N95?

    I purchased my N95 in Hong Kong and it runs v13, the updater showed that is the latest so I’m not able to get v15.
    Any information on when and if I can get the v15 download?

    take a look at the video centre – there are new video feeds available and new services too – goto settings and look around. video center now supports XMLTV and DVB-IPI

    there are a couple new feeds including:
    ONETV

    which seems to provide streaming TV channels… albeit rather obscure channels, but since vimio LiveTV seems to be off-air now, this is streaming tv for the n95 :)

    gahhhhhhh!! When will they have a bloody updater for Mac? It’s so frustrating having to find a time where a work colleague (one of the few on Windows) can let me use their machine to do my updates… I’ve been advised strongly against doing it over Parallels, after it went pear-shaped for a few friends.

    Ah well, today’s my last day using a Symbian phone as main device. My number’s been transfered to my iPhone (blasphemy, yeah yeah i know) and Nokia phones will become secondary when-needed devices.

    Is the demand paging technology limited to the N95 (by hardware, etc.)? I’m thinking E50, E61, etc…

    Let’s start a little list of unsupported product codes:

    0547686
    0548736
    0548763
    0548825
    0548986
    0549028
    0549567

    Does someone know how long it usually takes Nokia to support all product codes?

    FEEDBACK: Finally, I changed my product code to EURO-1 PLUM, updated the phone and I can confirm N95 on v20 is the best smart phone ever.

    The ‘product change’ process is very very simple. Just a couple of clicks. Then the update went without any problems.

    1) Everything is faster
    2) BATTERY is better (quite surprising about it)
    3) A lot of web sites I was unable to browse; now I CAN
    4) I was unable to get a FULL MEMORY MESSAGE… I just don’t close applications right now…

    Excellent job!

    Thanks Hernan for the link!!!
    I’m so happy with my all new and shiny firmware:
    Free RAM grew from 14MB to 27MB and applications are loading much faster: with the old fimware C2Doom needed about one minute to load, now the mainscreen pops up afer amazing six seconds!!! Camera seems to be slightly faster, too, but I didn’t take the time.

    The only bad thing is, that I had to manually reinstall all applications because the backup didn’t work well (might be caused by the different product code).

    hallo alejandro!

    nimm den euro-1 und die entsprechende farbe deines n95 (z.b. 0536062 für euro-1, deep plum). mit nss ist der wechsel des product codes simpel. garantie ist dann wohl weg.

    ich finde mein n95 weder wesentlich schneller (außer beim booten) noch hält der akku länger. bei karten ist dann auch der tracking-modus weg.

    aber mehr ram wiegt das ganze auf!

    Arg, I found a really annoying bug in the new Firmware: When I delete all songs of an artist, genre,… the artist,… still sticks in the artists section and there is no freaking way to delete it. Arg!!!
    That way the lists will be flooded with useless, empty folders in no time and you wont be able to find anything anymore.
    Please Nokia, fix it, and FIX IT FAST!
