Firmware Upgrade - Nokia 9500

Sun
Sun Posts: 326 Forumite
I have Nokia 9500 and I would like to upgrade its firmware to the latest available.

I contacted Carphone Warehouse, they are charging £30 for it.

Does any one know any cheaper shops???

Thanks
All I ask is the chance to prove that money can't make me happy.

    if it's under a year old ,then as Nokia Service centres for the UK Carphone warehouse would fix it for free (and reflash the software) if it had say a problem where it shuts itself down sometime when it is sending texts ;) and you wanted it repaired ;)

  • I thought that the Nokia service centres simply scanned the barcode on the phone and that told them everything they needed to know about date of purchase, etc...
    ...and then the window licker said to me...
