Need helps...

I am anie form indonesia.

I was just going to update my phone software.

Mine is nokia N95 1GB.

But unfortunately, it was said

"Sorry,the Nokia Software Updater is currently unavailable. Please try again later"

I wonder,is it just me having this trouble?

Or is it coming from the nokia itself?

Please help me,cos i need the updater soon.

Thank a bunch!

You will not be able to update your phone using Nokia software because you do not have a Nokia phone.

There is no such model as the "N95 1GB".

In some countries the original N95 was advertised as the N95 1GB due to it having a 1GB memory card in the box.

Even O2 UK called it that on their website after the N95 8GB was launched.

The servers that the nokia updater uses did appear to have a problem earlier today as I couldn't connect to them either.  They seem to be working ok now.

If you still cannot connect to the updater then the issue is most likely with your computer or internet connection.

Thanks for that bit of info. I stand corrected. Yet another case of marketing departments mislabelling things and generating confusion.

Exactly, they don't think of the consumer.

Another of O2 UK (and other online retailers) tricks was to sell the old N95 with an 8GB card and called it the "N95 8GB", just as the real N95 8GB was launched on other networks. That caught quite a few people out, I remember the posts about it on here too.

It's surprising that Nokia UK didn't step in and point out that they're selling one product labelled as another.

Now you understand the hatred and contempt that I have of the "marketing" profession as a whole

[psychomania]

I do understand

I've lost all respect for Nokia UK as they seem to be as useful as a chocolate teapot at the moment.

Poor quality support from nokia care, NCP's (CPW mainly) getting away with poor service and the delays in UK firmware releases are all unacceptable.

It's even more funny when nokia UK's general manager starts trash talking about apple in the media without getting his own house in order first.

Mmmmm.... Chocolate teapots. You do realize that talking chocolate to me when it's gone midday and I've not even had time for breakfast yet is a bad mistake
