Nokia 5800 Firmware v30.0.011
Now Officially Available As FOTA Update!

Just want to give everyone a quick heads up that latest firmware update (v30.0.011) for Nokia 5800 XpressMusic is now regularly available for most of the generic Euro codes as 'Over The Air' update and as usually, it should be progressively available at the Nokia service points and available through the NSU as well.

There is no detailed change log but according to user reports over at our forum section new software brings nothing new but after update phone is a bit quicker, more stable, more responsive with more free RAM after the boot-up.

So although it is not a major update it is still highly suggestible to get it as it brings dozens of minor bug fixes and improves reliability of your phone and offers extensive improvements in the performance.

Nokia 5800 has the UDP but it is anyway highly suggestible to back up your phone memory before performing a firmware update just as precaution measure in case something goes wrong.

To get this software just click on the Menu button, than > Settings > Phone > Phone mgmt > Device updates > Select Options > Check for updates and follow the on-screen prompts. Remember that you can also use Wi-Fi to download the update.

Process of downloading and updating firmware shouldn't take too long and cost you too much. Nokia provides this software free of charge. However, costs for downloading may be charged by your network operator or service provider. Please contact them for information about pricing.

As with all software releases, note that your mobile service provider, operator, or carrier may not have approved this release. Nokia produces many different variants of each product (for different countries and languages) and not all variants have the latest Nokia device firmware. It is our priority to update all variants as quickly as possible.
