I want to update my N95’s software but I’m not sure about the risks. My current OS is V 12.0.013 (19-06-07) and somehow somebody removed the white label under the battery so I don’t have the code which is required in the proces of updating. Now I want to ask two questions:
1. can I do that update with somebody else’s code? My friend has got N95 and can I use his code? What’s gonna happen?
2. What happens with my installed applications? I know it offers me to do backup before updating so is it safe? I have plenty of them on memory card so if it would format my phone memory and without backup many of them wouldn’t work and I should install them again which is not what I want to do.

Thanks and please reply.

No geotaggging support in the update. This is actually mean for Nokia, they used to say at the Nokia Location Tagger page sth like “We hope in future to make geotagging a seamless experience”, so I hoped they would make this work for older phones, not just N78 and newer… Now it says on the page: “Location tagging functionality has now been productized, and Nokia Location Tagger will not be further developed as standalone application”

After installing this update a menu folder for a group of applications disappeared, and then some icons were moved to Applications folder, some were lost (even though some of the lost were “trusted” (signed), and for some other a kind of pseudoapplication instal was created in app manager, to reinstall them. In general I was lucky to (and I recommend you do) keep the installation files for all the applications on the phone to reinstall them. Fortunately, all the settings were (or seem to be) preserved.

Nokia Maps - what a disappointment - I hoped they would fix the problem where backroads disappear with zoom out even if there are no main roads to be shown on the screen there. Even worse - at the “state/province wide” zoom, app is ridiculous to show just some random, unconnected parts of main highways. But it seems at least to scroll a bit faster (still too slow).

Startup time is not noticeably faster. There is still this alloying lag after the startup, when some background processes still start, and menu behaves erratically at that time.

Couldn’t find any info on what is the “Mobile Widget Support”. Does anyone know? This is not Widsets apparently.

Flash Lite - is there any other site then youtube to make use of this? We can now watch videos on “desktop version” of youtube, the video quality is higher, but the usability leaves a lot of room for improvement.
