Nokia N97 Firmware Updated To v12.2.024

By TheGuru on August 17, 2009

Many users are reporting that a new firmware, v12.2.024, is available via NSU for the Nokia N97. Apparently, this update is available for RM-507, and affects both APAC and EMEA, though I’m sure that others will follow shortly. There is no changelog available as of right now, but it’s always recommended that you apply any firmware updates, specifically on a phone as buggy as the Nokia N97.

You can download Nokia Software Update here, as I do not believe that the firmware is available through OTA (over-the-air) as of yet. We’ll update this story with any additional details as they come available. The Nokia N97 does feature UDP (User Data Preservation), which means you cna apply the update without losing any personal data or settings. However, it’s always a good idea to backup any critical information before updating, just in case.

    Also available for Black Euro3.
  • RM-505 got v12.0.024. Any explanation for the difference? Or is it just a mess-up?
  • Walsted
    Just updated my N97 too!

    Haven't noticed anything new - except way speedier :)
  • Updated!
  • Good news: you can set the new firmware free with HelloOX2.
  • @nt1
    It's available for RM-505 as well. Updating just now. And the difference between 12.2 and 12.0 is not a mess-up, it's related to the RM/the region, as in EMEA, NAM, etc. As long as it starts and ends with the same digits you're good to go.
  • hyperkind
    i updated my RM-505 today, no noticeable changes tho the phone is much more fast! Will post more as its found
  • Wampyre
    That is indeed good news.
    Hopefully the amount of free RAM has increased after a fresh restart as displayed on RC.

    And hackable is always a good thing :-p

    I did the update, so I cant connect the internet by the bluetooth modem yet. The n97 dont supports internet's call yet too. For me, the update didn t resolve my problems...
  • Noah
    Is the browser new? I can't tell. I know there's a new 7.1 browser (via Forum Nokia) and the app says 7.1.x , but the settings look exactly the same. Didn't check the vers before the update.
  • michael ebora
    just updated my rm-507.. theres changes... more faster.. the application is now fast to open.. more ram available..
  • kalboflyscot
    why no V12 for RM-505?
  • kalboflyscot
    Nokia Software Updater says that I have the latest version V11.0.021, is V12 available for RM-505?
