Late last night (at least for me here in Texas), Nokia lived up to its word and released firmware v11.0.021 for the Nokia N97. I was able to update my Euro N97 over-the-air this morning, while laying in bed, which was rather nice. To download the update over WiFi or cellular data, simply type *#0000# with the phone dialer and you’ll be taken to the device manager. From there, simply press options, check for updates. The Nokia N97 includes UDP (User Data Preservation), which means it’s not necessary to backup your phone before applying this new firmware. However, it’s always a good idea to backup any critical information, just in case.
As a nice little surprise, Nokia threw a bone to the poor saps who own a Nokia N96, releasing firmware v30.033 over-the-air, as well. There’s no changelog available, but reportedly this firmware addresses a few bugs, and that sort of thing.
