6220 Classic Firmware upgrade - stuck / any ideas ?

Am trying to use Nokia Software Updates to do a firmware upgrade to my 6220 Classic from v 03.06 to v 03.46.

All going smoothly until the stage when the updater tells me : Updating the Software, please wait... Estimated time left : 15 mins.

This has now been reading like this for about half an hour - clearly it's stuck.

Any ideas ? Lots of grim warning about "Don't disconnect etc etc".

Thanks.

Re: 6220 Classic Firmware upgrade - stuck / any ideas ?

I ended up solving this myself simply through persisting. Dull and clunky process, but I ended up ignoring the "do not disconnect..." warnings. disconnecting it, and starting all over again.

Strangely, and I hope it's different for you, I now have a phone that confirms that it has the new firmware loaded up, but I see no discernible difference in performance, battery life etc etc. Close to a waste of time, if Nokia cares (which I don't think it does).
