[uppalpankaj]

Hi Guys,
I finally bought the Nokia N82 on 9th Feb...Just couldn't post earlier due 2 being a little busy..All of u were right...I had been reading a lot abt the N82 on the forum...Yes, this is an awesome phone..

Got if for 18900 with bill & warranty from Nokia Priority..I m not having any issues with the keypad yet..This is my first Nseries device and I am loving it...

Need ur help if anyone can guide me with the following:
1. Should I update to the latest firmware v31 and is it really worth it?

2. The import month on the Box is Sept 2008..Have I bought from the old stock or is it that the stock reaches the market after 3-4 months of the month of import????

3. Which r the most important apps I shud install on it??

I wud really appreciate if u can help me out with this..Thanks in advance...

I m really happy 2 join the N82 club..

Can anyone please shed some light on my query no. 2.

The other problem that I am facing is that I am not able 2 install the Ovi Suite and Nokia PC Suite 2gether in the PC...
Why is it so?? Is there any way with which I can install both in the computer...

Reg Q2 :

It doesn't matter reg the package date as u can update your firmware whenever needed.
V31 is faster compared to V20 so u can update to it at some nokia care.

Btw, Welcome to the N82 club

[uppalpankaj]

Can I update the firmware on my own??

[deepakchan]

Yes You can update the firmware yourself by using the Nokia PC Suite's Nokia Phone Software Updater (PSU). Make sure you have a broadband connection with sufficient limit as v31 is close to 115MB. Make sure your phone is fully charged and is in General Profile mode. When you've decided to update the phone's firmware, you shouldn't be using the phone at all while the process is happening. Ignore any SMSs / call(s) that you might receive until the firmware update is completed successfully and you have removed all connection to the PC/laptop. If you have never done this before, I suggest you do it with a friend who has already done it at least once successfully or the best bet would be always to give it to an NPD to have it updated. It shouldn't take more than half an hour.

Btw, Welcome to the N82 club. I am still on v30 due to lack of time to sit with my phone on my home PC.

Ya, but there is some amt of risk involved in this.

Since u have warranty i suggest u to go to some nokia care centre and get it done for free

Sorry for not mentioning.. That is, if you have a 2mbps broadband connection.

[yogi7272]

I wish n85 had the hardware platform and xenon flash of n82 .. anyways update n82 to ver 31 and then hack it ..

[damngoodman999]

[uppalpankaj]

@utsav - How cum u got a firmware v30 in ur N82..I got a v20 (old firmware)...Can u please tell me what is d date of Manufacturing and Import on the box of ur N82...

What is hacking? How do you hack a phone??? Sorry I am a noob in the Symbian arena...I have installed F-Secure antivirus but it is a trial version...How do I get to install an unlimited one??

[damngoodman999]

u dont need an ANTI virus for the N82

V20 is good one but , still u have lot of minus with V20 it is slow and little hangs

V31 is latest and fast , good speed , call end bug is really fixed
