awww man, need a DKE-2 for my n95 so i can get this its lie 1.0.0.18 or something atm

Oh this brilliant, the AGPS is something I have been waiting for. I can say its well worth the update if anything.
I managed to get a lock in under 1 minute....IN MY HOUSE...never happens let me assure you. I hear that it has solved the wireless issues though I did have some issues with my netgear router that stoped when I switched to Linksys. So I will give it a try later and see how that is going.
Took all in under 8 mins to update.

Going to do it as soon as my battery is fully charged. what is new in this update?
Posted by scottt
Quicker lock times when using the GPS.....
Will be doing this tommorrow afternoon when i get in
Posted by amnesia
everytime I backup my phone though, it NEVER restores everything properly.
I don't know if I want to go through the hassle of installing all over again
Posted by themarques
Mine worked flawlessly restored no problems, right down to the new msn client.
Posted by intelegent115
Anything else new besides faster lock-on? I do not feel like upgrading cause the phone works super!
Posted by antz88c
Upgraded via Boot Camp and no problems encountered. Here's my initial observation.
GPS
- Positioning Methods added Assisted GPS
- With Assited GPS enabled, lock time is now faster, even indoors.
CAMERA:
- Same
- When screen goes off the camera button (right side) flashes blue light, reason known to Nokia only.
GALLERY:
- Gallery opens faster. Thumbmails open simultaneously.
MAPS:
- v3.0 w23 b01.
SEARCH:
- Same version which is beta (update available at Nokia site)
WLAN:
- WLAN wizard added Filter WLAN networks.
THEMES:
- Nokia removed the Default Theme (plain blue theme), only 4 themes in this version.
DEVICE MANAGER:
- No FOTA (my N73 has this already with the latest software version, V 4.0726.2.0.1)
Here's my orignal post:

Can anyone tell me where to turn on aGPS or is it on by default?
Can other apps. (like Route66) use aGPS?
Thanks,
W.
[edit] found answer to first question - on mine it's turned on by default. would still like answer to second question though!

None.
Posted by masseur
just doing it now. What I don't get is why it needs to download a whopping 113.9mb to do this update
Posted by intelegent115
MSN Live doesn`t seem to work after the update. Also i am having some restore problems
Posted by masseur
...and I have been prompted for my WEP key a number of times though it seems to have settled down now
Posted by Dogmann
Hi all,
Well from what i have seen reported so far the only change for me would be the A-GPS and as i am not using this feature there is no point in this for me. My Gallery already refreshes really fast and all thumbnails at once, I have no issues with WiFi, Don't need the blue flashing light whilst in standby. I really like having Windows Live i am going to stay with V11 for now at least until i hear some thing else that gives me a good reason to upgrade.
On this occasion i am staying with
"If it ain't broke don't fix It"
But i must say once again i am really impressed at the speed in which Nokia release new Firmware to address issues that concern their users and on a side note the new PC Suite is great and has fixed the problem i had where the Music Manager wasn't seeing my memory card.
Marc

my son and I have both updated now and are well impressed by the GPS performance now. For the first time ever we are getting a very quick location lock and indoors too with at least 5 sattelites showing
Posted by baconnugget
updated seem snappier however still got a buzzing sound think my handset must be faulty might have to get a new one from orange.
Posted by amnesia
doesn't work indoors for me, then again, I've got 5 two other floors above me if that makes a difference. I'll try it again now to lead me to Lakeside so lets see how it works.
Posted by mackem
tried to update this morning,but it said none were available. will try again this afternoon!

if you mean when you put the phone real close to your ear you can hear a faint sound, kinda like a computer makes it is the processor or something running cos its such a powerful phone
Since i have upgraded + debranded from t-mob, i have noticed that when in the multimedia menu it doesnt make that sound as it loads up and also i have a song called Moby-in my heart added to the phone

I can assure you it aint the processor making a buzzing..... Most of the noise from a PC is from the fans and i can assure you there aint any fans in an N95.......

well anyway i wouldnt worry about it, mine occasionally makes the faintest of noises when loading things

Well your either hearing things or your phone is haunted because it just does'nt make any noises concerning loading.....
Posted by baconnugget
listen to music using headphones i can hear alot of backround noise if i set voulme to 10%, also during calls there is a hissing.
Posted by themarques
Another thing to add to the list minor as it is is the 3G icon.
When you are in an HSDPA enabled area it shows up as 3.5G, pretty handy that having to run speed tests all the time wondering if you in or out of HSDPA.
For those of you with *cough cough* bad eye sight (couldnt find a better word I did try) you will have to look really close as it will look like just 3G.
Posted by Ace Mccloud
anyone know any good little infomation/resource sites for the n95?
i remember there being sites dedicated to the p series phones, i just dont seem to be very sucsessful at finding n95 ones.

Posted by scottt

k must of done, but has the sound when enetering and navigating thru multimedia menu been removed on yours?
Posted by scottt
Yup mine has never made a sound when pressing the multimedia key.... Unlike my N73 which did make a sound....
Posted by mackem
you bunch of barstools!
how come you can updates yours,but i cant update mine!
Posted by A L 3 X
is your debranded? change your product code to the EURO1 on for your relevant colour of phone, sand/plum etc
Posted by sapporobaby
@amnesia,
Rule of thumb. Backup/restores hardly ever work properly. Would you do and oil change, then use the same oil and filter again? Same thing applies. Do a fresh install.
@Dicky Snapples,
I had the same problem until I went out and tried to update via NSU rather than reading the website. Apparently the site has not been updated.
Posted by mackem
i was trying to update via NSU,and yeah mines unbranded, generic n95.
oh well, ill try again on monday!
Posted by amnesia
well, it takes 5 mins to lock on, A-Gps works sometimes (on t-mobile unlimited internet if it makes a difference).
I was on 3.5G as well.

Newly uploaded songs are automaticlly detected by Music Player, no need to Refresh Music Library.
Posted by The Lostprophet
had mine for a few days on updated firmware
everything seems the same 2 me, accept i have that flashing light after the keypad locks. and my backup didnt work on this fireware either? which i found pretty odd. also gallery loads MUCH quicker.
battery seems the same

Incorrect. When you go to the MM Menu, and then select Music Player, while it is opening (at least on mine) it refreshes the playlists. As a test, I added a few songs. When I went to play them, they were there. I got the "Opening" statement then my list of playlists.
The sounds were already there in the older software, as were the background images, and Image effects.
Posted by A L 3 X
well how come mine doesnt refresh them for me :S
how did you transfer the files?
I plugged the phone into the PC with miniUSB cable, went to file manager in the PC suite, then i went to memory card>attachments and put my song in, closed the windows and disconnected the phone, then went multimedia menu>music player and it said opening then i went into all songs, it wasnt there, then playlists, and recently added and it wasnt there, i had to refresh manually, maybe i have to cnage the destination folder or use music manager?

i found a bug in latest firmware where the radio, audio only comes out of one ear and the other is very faint, however playing music via media player works fine. only way to resolve the issue is to turn phone on and off then the radio works fine again.
Posted by ^D0Nt Ask^
updated mine today. the gallery is quicker and also I don't have that bug in the camera that when you change scene mode the sharpness goes to hard
Posted by sapporobaby
@A L 3 X,
I am on a Mac. I use the new software that Nokia developed to transfer files. It works great. It creates the directories and puts the files where they need to go. It will even include album art (I think). I am not sure how things work on a Windows PC though. Sorry dude.
Posted by A L 3 X
is it the nokia music manager or if nto whats it called and ill try get t for windows?
Posted by sapporobaby
@A L 3 X,
Nope. It is called Nokia Media Transfer. This is what makes Nokia better (in my opinion) than SE. Dedication to more than just one platform.
Posted by mackem
i still cant update!
Posted by batesie
might be your product code, you could try changing it, as long as you make a note of your original one...
Posted by A L 3 X
i used this one: 0536062 EURO1 - Plum and it successfully updated to newest FW
