Nokia Care Suite 5.0
No. Even in most S^3 isn't possible, so the more the Nokia Lumia. You have to upload any firmware by Phoenix, but doesn't yet have a version that supports the Nokia Lumia.

Even after uploading the firmware from another Product Code, your Product Code remains unchanged.

but u can flash any firmware for Lumia 800 by this tool
Making a lil up on this post...
Does anyone tryed to figure out how to change Product Code for Lumia 800 yet?!
Why do you want change product code?
If it's for unbranding your phone, you can flash a country variant firmware without changing product code...

Because once changed, updates via Zune are avaible...
Currently, if you fash your phone without change the product code, you don't receive any updates...
You have to flash again to update... So to wipe all data, and restaure all again...
I managed to force the update by the connecting/deconnecting method even with an unbraded fw with the orange fw product code unchanged. So it's possible to update the fw.
I guess, that can works...
But witch firware did you got as update?!
Unbranded?! Or Orange one?!
it is the 7.10.8107.79 SE and the 1600.2483.8106.11500 (microprogram), still unbranded.

WHat is the "connecting/deconnecting method" ?
Connect your phone to your computer, Zune will run...
Start looking for update, and 2 or 3 secs after, disconnect your phone...
Connect it back, and the update will show up...
Still, would be better to be able to change product code... x)

A lot of people including myself have the problem with 2.1 where we cant send text messages longer than a single text.
But it says here that vodafone have worked with SE to fix the issue and have released an updated 2.1 firmware.
Is this firmware available yet for flashing? if it is where can i download it?
It tells you in the link you posted. Update/Repair using PC Companion.
But i have a rooted and unbranded phone with the nordic firmware. If i was to try and update i'd imagine PCC would not detect a vodafone firmware and not update to it... or that would not matter if SE have fixed all firmwares and not just done a vodafone fix, does anyone know? would PCC even work correctly with a flashed phone?

Sorry, from your OP it sounded like you were on vodaphone firmware already. The easiest way to flash it back to vodaphone is by the CDA change method as you are rooted.
see here:-
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=824711
you will need to change the codes to 1234-4579
Although as you were having problems with it on nordic firmware it would say to me that its not a firmware issue, more likely a network one but i'm no expert.
also, probably worth you keeping an eye on this thread, and PM Jeff-SEAnswers ...

Thanks mate
I dont think it's a network issue because other people have the same problem on all kinds of networks and in different countries.
I have a vodafone SIM but i've always had a unlocked/unbranded phone... what would happen if i tried to use PCC to put the new firmware on my phone without flashing back to my phones original firmware? and are all UK firmwares the same or would this one with the fix be specifically for vodafone?

Using the above method I linked to would install the newest Vodafone firmware (ie. The 'fixed' one in your link). It doesn't matter what firmware you are currently on. No, all UK firmwares are different, some will come with provider settings preinstalled, specific apps or features enabled/disabled depending on network. If you don't want to go back to branded try flashing to generic UK 2.1 using flash tool, thats what i'm on and I never had any text problems.
Think i'll just try flashing to the firmware you use and see if that fixes it... could you link me to the UK firmware you used? Cheers again!

Hi all
I have been wondering how I can tell if the custom or claimed-to-be-official S2 ICS rom supports OTA upgrade?
I know it's perhaps impossible for those custom ones, but the ones I downloaded and flashed that claim 'official', how can I be sure if they supports OTA or not? I am a bit tired of keeping flashing the new versions after all.
Thank you!
it is strictly connected to your product code and region the ROM was released for - these two things have to match.
You will have OTA update if you're using ROM officially released for the region you have set in your phone. and you will get OTA updates only to other ROMs released for this region. few examples:
1. you have XEO product code and you use ROM officially released for XEO - you will get OTA updates but only to other ROMs released for XEO;
2. you have TWO product code but you have installed ROM released for XEO - you won't have OTA update at all (unless you change your PC according to you ROM release region - to XEO - and then, again, updates will be only to XEO ROMs)
3. you HAD XEO and ROM released for XEO, but for some reason you changed your PC to TWO - you won't have OTA update at all (unless you match your PC with region your ROM was released for again).
so, check your product code and the region your ROM was released for, match them however you want - change ROM or PC - and you will be having OTA updates. remember that changing PC is wiping all your data so do backup.
other thing is that you won't have OTA update if you use custom ROM, custom kernel or in some cases root (depending on the root method. rooting phone without making changes to kernel doesn't stop your device from getting OTA update until you make changes in your system).

Thanks for the detailed response. So I guess I need to get a stock rom for Australia then as I bought the phone and am using it in Australia.
Where I can find it? What's the code for Australia market? XEO is just for Euro, rite?
Thanks!!
Get the PC version of Checkfus (search for it on here/Google) & download I9100XWLP8/I9100XSALP4/I9100XXLPS/I9100XWLP8 which is an unbranded Australian ICS stock rom. Flash it following the instructions in this thread. You can also download carrier branded ICS stock roms with Checkfus if that's your preference.

a few more questions:
1. How can I tell a ROM definitely supports OTA before I install it?
2. How can change my s2 region code to match the ROM's in order to get OTA working again?
3. what's the real difference between carrier branded rom and unbranded ones? e.g. is it better to use say telstra branded rom?
1. Be sure that ROM was released for the region/carrier which fits product code set in your phone - it's always written in ROM info on any download page I know. you may also adapt product code in your phone later, to fit the ROM you wish to use (in case you insist on FOTA/Kies updates).
2. *#272*IMEI# changes your product code. Remember that it wipes all your data.
3. Branded FW may include additional apps but also lot of operator's useless trash. Personally I never use branded ROMs and always suggest debranding. Check thread about chosen ROM for more info.

Thanks, Re #2, it seems strange that although I never used that command to change my code, only flashed a stock rom issued for another region a while ago, now the checkfus says my handset's the regional code that fits this new rom, other than the supposed-to-be australian one.
Is this normal? So the flashing process can actually alter the phone prod. region code without warning me?
Theoretically it shouldn't but s... happens. If you were flashing ROMs in which your product code wasn't available then it could adjust itself. Mostly I've seen situations when after such an ROM update, PC just wasn't available for change but it stayed the same as it was. On the second hand I've also heard about few cases like yours. Anyway, are you sure about your original PC if you never used this code option? Maybe originally it was different than you think it ought to be?

You can also try www.sammobile.com for stock firmware. Just make sure that you input your device and region correctly
Edit : and you'll have to flash through odin

Strange!
1. I use *#1234# command and found my rom info is I9100ZSLPG, which is for the region Hongkong - TGY
2. then I use *#272*imei#* (Product code) to check my phone's current CSC, which is shown already 'TGY'.
Now my question is, why my phone still can't get any OTA update?
Any other bit not matched? How to check if any?
Thanks.
I got my hand on a nokia lumia 710. Turns out it was a demo unit and is running demo software. Is there a way for me to manually update the software? it won't find an update on its own.
Any help would be appreciated
I was finally able to flash a stock version from NaviFirm.
OS Version 7.10.7740.16
Is that the latest update? My phone doesn't appear to be finding another update on its own.
Also could someone tell me what there phone says for total storage of the device?

Hey peeps,
I flashed a firmware with a different product code to my Lumia 920, and everything works fine. It came with CV-HK but I flashed CV_AU (Australian unbranded).
Just wondering if I will receive OTA updates since the firmware uses a different product code?
I am worried that when Nokia stops allowing users to access NCS, that I will be forever stuck on the current build of the Aussie firmware and wont receive updates (if a future update process checks the product code and blocks the install).
Should I leave it, or should I flash the CV-HK back to the phone just incase?
So I guess that no one has any idea? I've asked everywhere and haven't been able to find an answer.
i think the product code is stored in permanent memory, so likely what will happen is that it will check for OTAs/updates based on your actual product code, basically if you update it will likely just reflash the branded software

I cant imagine an OTA update being 1.2 to 1.4GB. That is what it would take to re-flash a different firmware over the existing one.
I thought that it would notice an incorrect Product Code and not update, or hopefully it would just detect the ROM your using and flash the updated version of that.
Wish someone from Nokia/Microsoft could clarify. Time to hit twitter.

Hi,
I just got notification for a new software available on my NL 920 in India. I have updated but have not found any new features/change log. Update was 19 MB. I was on Amber earlier. Unfortunately I don't have earlier OS/Firmware version Numbers to compare. Does anyone know what was the update about?
Thanks

You could post your latest firmwareversion number. Mine gives no update available in the Netherlands running Amber.

is possible small update for your operator or something else...

for your country check available version here
http://www.nokia.com/global/support/software-update/wp8-software-update/availability-in-europe/
because in India people get update, this not mean all others get this update... every operator and country have own versions of firmware and maybe in India some fix deployed to current version
