getting more and more tired with this Nokia non-sense...

Re: Nokia N9 PR 1.2 official released.
 
I have a Country Variant Switzerland CH N9. No update available yet.
Does anybody know why some of the non-branded country variants don't have the PR 1.2 yet and others do?

I believe that's the question everybody with a Country Variant is asking and not getting the answer :mad:

Re: Nokia N9 PR 1.2 official released.
 
the Country Variant is an "unbranded" phone with a software for a specific country. I had a look at the 1.1fw both the CV and the vanilla one and found only minor differences, all binaries are the same.

All new FW must be tested by the providers themselves because the phones will be using their networks, so the most logical explanation is that your provider is still testing the FW before giving Nokia the green light to send it to customers. And if you have a Swiss variant you must be aware that the N9 is not on the priority list of the providers.

I didn't know that they also needed to test the unbranded versions.
Actually, I don't know anything about Swiss priorities. I live in the Netherlands, and since the N9 wasn't released here, the shop only had imported Swiss country versions.
So my Dutch provider is definitely not testing anything regarding N9 :)

Re: Nokia N9 PR 1.2 official released.
 
Nope, the Dutch providers have nothing to do with it. You are waiting for the Swiss to green light the update.

The Swiss market for the N9 must be 0.01% of the amount of N9's sold worldwide. I can fully understand that Nokia take their time to update these but I don't like this way of doing updates. They should wait for the roll out to be sure to cover at least 80% of their users.

You want the latest FW now? Flash it yourself.

I think Nokia in Switzerland newer sold more units of a single device before N9. People from everywhere get it from there because it was cheaper than in other countrys and because it is/was not released in their country.

malmostoso 2012-04-17 09:53
Re: Nokia N9 PR 1.2 official released.
 
I would recommend changing the product code instead of flashing.
Flashing yourself needs to be done with each release, while changing the product code needs to be done once and then if you pick a code with a firmware released early you'll always have it.

I had one of those Swiss codes that don't have the update yet, and replaced it with the code you can find in Navifirm. Right after changing it I found the update on NSU.

Just my 0.02€

I am not from CH and never been there - bought my phone in the UK.

As far as % of sold units - if the market share for CH is so small that they donțt bother with updating those phones, why sell it there in the first place?

As far as I am concerned they could make the phone with whatever product code they like (south Sudan for ex.) - I could not care less.

What I care about is keeping the product up to date.
I would understand a week or two delay from one market to another, but I definitely donțt understand a more than a month delay...How is CH so much different from other European countries that have been updated already?

That, if you ask me, was a major failure from the start. I have seen people with the new Lumia phones but never anyone with the N9. In CH, smartphone owners either have an iPhone or some Android (mainly SGS2) phone.

And I know for sure that the sales of the N9 here are very, very bad. Have a look at the www.digitec.ch website and search for the N9. They have plenty because nobody buys them. Even the demo ones are not selling for a very good price.

Re: Nokia N9 PR 1.2 official released.
 
If you are a complete noob then OTA or NSU will be fine. Best option though is to do a reflash of the firmware and emmc especially as you will have no data to back up or lose.

Very true...
I too said it more than once around here, anybody who still has brand-locked FW or your country code doesnīt appear on NaviFirm yet, go ahead and flash your N9s to PR1.2 with root.bin + emmc.bin with ANY OTHER country code you can find on NaviFirm, just adhere to the memory capacity...even color doesnīt matter, either...if your N9 is 16gb version locked with some crappy Polish provider, simply download PR1.2 Central EU 16gb country code and do the flash..
itīs completely alright and you then will have overriden stupid restrictions of your stupid provider...
thatīs that, no reason to wait whatsoever...

that is exactly why I am being fed up - if I don't have 1.2 yet, how long will take for the 1.3 for me?!!!!

Re: Nokia N9 PR 1.2 official released.
 
o_O

I read here several times that this might cause problems and that's why it is not adviced to change product codes!

Re: Nokia N9 PR 1.2 official released.
 
I read reports from people having force updated their N9 to PR1.2 by going to OVI store and trying to download GTalk video call. That forced their devices to OTA update to PR1.2 alongside. I wont hurt if you try it.

It's possible, after all it's not an official way of doing things. It worked for me, YMMV.

Lost your patience? Just flash with NDT firmwware. I had a QUICK look at both FW for the Swiss variant and they are identical apart from some certificates.

Re: Nokia N9 PR 1.2 official released.
 
Finally, my local variant is ready to update.

The Portuguese mobiles are still stuck on PR 1.1. It's taking so long...

@Hedonist
Have you tried to force update by downloading GTalk video from OVI? I wonder if this works.

No that doesn't work

Hedonist 2012-04-19 13:13
Re: Nokia N9 PR 1.2 official released.
 
@zlatko

I did that and Nokia emailed me, telling that I am unable to install Gtalk since PR 1.2 is still not available in my country. I emailed them back asking when this update is going to take place, but they haven't answered yet...

What bothers me the most is that their Portuguese website mentions PR 1.2 as the last OS version... :mad:

That is a myth and will never work as long as the FW hasn't been released.

And the Swiss country variant is finally available, today, 20 April. It's installing here now.

I bought my N9 online from Expansys in Belgium. The fact that they shipped a "Swiss country variant" with German, French and Italian booklets shows how utterly, completely broken and stupid the whole country-specific version thing is. It must be so incredibly inefficient to have to build, support, test and distribute all these different software versions, for absolutely no reason whatsover. The devices getting shipped everywhere in the world.

Expansys are the guys who sent me a US N900 a couple of years ago, when I ordered in the UK. Didn't even bother sending along a converter for the U.S. power supply.
