Does anyone know what the latest firmware for the N70 is on T-mobile. I got my N70 at the beginning of March, the firmware version was 2.0537.1.7. last week I took it to an authorized Nokia dealership but they put the same version on so i was wondering are T-mobile behind or are the dealership just being lazy?

Yep thats the latest T-Mobile so the CNSp were spot on there.

Do you knw when/if T-mobile will be getting the latest software? Is there any disadvantages when using the N70 to installing the generic firmware? for example the loss of some network functions

[seraphim]

that would be a question you would need to ask tmobile.

Hi I recently purchased N70 which was purchased by someone else as contract phone from T-mobile but was unlocked by T-Mobile and given to me.

I then got it upgraded to generic firmware version 3.0546.2.3 18-11-2005 RM 84.

This version debranded my N70 and I was able to access WAP and other things.Even performance of handset has improved a lot.

I got all this done at fonefix the Nokia Service Center last saturday.

Hope this helps.

Well I am not using T-Mobile now.Instead I am using Tesco PAYG.

I did not pay anything for the upgrade however on phone when I had enquired I was told I might have to depending on what branding status phone is on. Apparently it was in good status as I did not have to pay anything.

I got the debranding done at fonefix York, UK.

I followed these steps:

1. Search for a nokia service centre near you location.
2. Call them up and explain your situation.
3. Get the phone flashed with latest generic version available with them.

HTH.

The advantages of not having T-mobile firmware.

No T-zones shortcut
No T-mobile theme
No T-mobile settings as default
No T-mobile Screensaver
No T-mobile ringtone

Voicemail still works fine on generic firmware, and so does everything else. Plus you'll have slightly more space on internal memory from the lack of branding.

Does that mean you can finally make your own screensavers out of animated gifs?

Does anyone know if t-mobile have upgraded their firmware on the N70 to the lastest firmware version?

I belive they are on VER.5 but I can not confirm that.

If you have a problem with your handset you should take it to NSC regardless of what firmware is out.
