Hi,
I'm trying to buy/pre order a Nokia Lumia 800 Cyan sim free. I know the Cyan model is not out yet so I would still like to know the best place to get this.
I tried phones4u but they don't post to Ireland, any ideas? Thanks
Hello everyone
I will probably buy a nokia lumia 800 in malaysia during my holidays and i would like to know when i will be back home ( in france) if i will able to upgrade the firmware of my nokia lumia with french version without brick the phone .
At the first time, i wanted to buy Samsung galaxy S2 but i have seen that there are some problem about firmware upgrade .
Thanks you :cyclops:
I bought mine in India and using it here in Germany. Even updated to Tango. I guess the update is device specific meaning mine is RM-801 tied to India. Irrespective of whichever part of the world you are only if the update is released for the country of mobile origin (in my case India) you can update
BTW i force updated my Lumia 800 to Tango using Zune

Nokia Lumia software update availability site is showing since a few days new firmwares.
Under Europe one can find for example:
Operator: NOKIA France: 059J3G6/059K7S7/059K7S8 Germany: 059K568 Unitid Kingdom: 059J3G0
All those NOKIA operator fimwares are with 'waiting for approval status'.
It seems a bit strange.
Does anyone have any idea of what it can be?
Regards
Hello.
I have recently bought a Lumia 920. The network operator is printed as "Sw variant Adriatic CV v511.01". As I am a German, and I bought it in a German shop, I would like to flash it, to become a unbranded 'German' version as I fear updates for this region will appear faster than in the current one. Also I would like to use the newest available OS version. Now here is my real question: What should I do now, and how should I do it? I am very new to the WP8 Nokias, as I only had a HTC WP7 device before. Therefore I am really looking forward to detailed answers to help me
I attached two screenshots with my system information.
Thanks in anticipation,
FlashTek

1. No, except if you want review with other Non-Nokia Windows Phone devices. Nokia has more OEM apps than HTC and Samsung. For an example Nokia Pro Camera, City Lens etc. But anyway there are alternative apps for other phones.
2. Only dependent from carrier and country from where you bought your phone. Some carrier phones doesn't receive updates (Branded Phones(Carrier review it.)) and second your country phone will receive update but later.
3. You couldn't change firmware to any other. First if you have branded phone, must debrand it. Nokia Service Center will do it for you. Next you can install later for your device specific unbranded firmware thats it. Nothing more. If you install wrong firmware on device, it will be brick. (Im talking about you can't install Nokia 920 RM-801 firmware on you Nokia Lumia 920 RM-902 for an example.)
Could you please answer this questions?
1-Which Firmware/ROM gets updates earlier.
2-Manualy D-branding possible or not?
3-Do you know any source that completely talk about how to do this stuff eg: Unlocking, D-branding, Hacking, etc...? (I do not care about warranty or what ever)
Thanks in advance...
No special ROMs which gets updates earlier. It is only just luck.
I dont think so.
You can unlock at your carrier provider. Debranding in Nokia Service center. Hacking what you mean? Install custom roms? No way. WP8 has secure boot.

He could be asking for customized ROM like I was able to have Nokia ROM on Samsung phone. Was kinda cool running Nokia Maps on Samsung device
Search for Here Drive in Marketplace.

RE:`
You can flash an unbranded rom yourself with NCS.
To download any version of any ROM you can use navifirm+ which is a customized version of old navifirm.

there are "better" and worse firmware out there, as example Vofafone Germany cuts out the Data Sense features. and some others cut out the LTE. i use an "open" firmware which is only an country variant do its not branded the country variant is labeled by "CV" in navifirm+ or nokia care suite. and if you change your phone from lets say Lumia 920 (820) to the same lumia 920 (RM-820) firmver then you can not harm your device. but there are some out like lumia 920 (RM-821, RM-822, RM-867). But these RM i think are only geographical codes for USA, Europe, China... but there are differences to, in Chinese ROMs i think there are not all languages like in the European ROM. there are some missing. and all they work the same because nokia and microsoft build them. the difference is just how the "carrier" disables or modifies some values for their own needs. thats all.

It is best to take a firmware of your region/country.
It is also best to take a firmware unbranded.
What else ...
For camera quality, use portico.... Nokia broke the camera with amber and black
