Which of these methods is the most reliable, when finding out about new firmware

1- "Can I Update?" at Nokia.com?

2- Checking on "NSU"?

3- Checking on "FOTA?"

 

Let's say if we see "No Updates Available" at "Can I Update?" section of Nokia.com, should we trust it and skip searching for new firmware on other sources such as NSU or FOTA?

Re: Which of these methods is the most reliable, when finding out about new firmware

The "can I update" page where you enter your product code only applies to NSU updates.  It does not tell you if FOTA updates are available.

 

The page sometimes can lag behind the actual firmware availability by a few hours or even a few days.

 

So to be sure to get updates ASAP you have to check FOTA and the NSU as updates can be released on one but not the other.

 

There are other unofficial tools that provide much more detailed info of NSU releases, but they cannot be discussed on this forum.
