Re: MAPS, NGAGE, OVI Contact update avaliable on my N97 via software update straight from the phone

I have tried to do the updates in three different NAM N97s.
All updates shows up but only the C: App is installed the rest just keep failing. When I check again the C: App is available for download again and is not installed!

I tried everything with no luck... And there is no way I will format my phone just to be able to install a couple of apps.

To me it looks like a compatibility issue with the firmware or it is a bug on SW Updater itself.

My above post is based on firmware v11.

It is definitely a compatibility issue or a SW Updater bug.

 

Again for all three N97s I tried it the C: App installs but when you exit the SW Updater and then re-enter it still shows there (actually never got installed). All the rest apps just failed to install.

I think it's a SW Update app bug... I've factory settings reset and Software Update doesn't go online to check and always reports "(all applications are up-to-date)". v11, NAM model.

Re: MAPS, NGAGE, OVI Contact update avaliable on my N97 via software update straight from the phone

I had the same problem many people here had... I have a N97 NAM, I am from Argentina and I use the phone in Spanish and SW Update gave me no updates.

I tried changing the phone language to english and after restart went again to SW update and I got Ovi Contacts Update only (wich I installed)...

I switched back the language to spanish, restarted, went again to SW Update and i am now installin Ovi Maps 3.1 and Ngage 1.3.

Hope to get the C memmory application in some way cause I really need it.


I also hope this works for you, try switching to another language, restart and go to SW Update again.

Same issue for me. Phone memory installs fine...but everything else fails!

 

And after successfully installing the Phone Memory upgrade...if I go back to SW Update, it appears again.

[ Edited ]

in order to get those updates you have ot have firmware v11.....and be in certain regions of the world. not all regions get the same updates. 

 

 

yes and there is this annoying bug of having installed everything and it reappears all over again either right away or the next day that is some craziness if you ask me. i have to reinstall memory patch and maps daily lol so frustrating. ngage and ovi contacts are fine and once installed actually remain installed. so i dont know what the deal with the other two is at least on my unit

Re: MAPS, NGAGE, OVI Contact update avaliable on my N97 via software update straight from the phone

I was having problems as SW update had stopped working after I updated to V11 so tried the factory reset.  Now my homescreen aps only connect through the phone network, meaning that iplayer no longer works....the awful software and firmware issues are just like when I first got my N95.  Nokia should stop beta testing with paying customers....no matter how much better subsequent updates, it's the last Nokia I get

Re: MAPS, NGAGE, OVI Contact update avaliable on my N97 via software update straight from the phone

So, you are saying it might be a software Issue, I was thinking to factory reset my phone...

 

nan4k7, I've read that the localization personalization and vendor can affect the SW update process..
what personalization version do you have?
mine is 11.2.021.C01.01

Went off to the Nokia shop in Regent Street...they reset the lot and all is well now.  They suggested not going near the Boingo app which messes up the connectivity

Ok, there is one difference I found... the language set..., mine is 29.

That should be the difference...

Maps does not appear because I updated this program via the OVI Maps Updater. though my PC...

Have you tried *#7370# ?? (This soft resets your phone)

 

 

It's strange that the language does not change...
