Yes. It's the Anna update. Definitely update it as it's better than without.

You still can update it though, download any variant of the new update via Navifirm.exe, if you haven't used it before, Navifirm is a really useful program that downloads all firmwares of NOKIA phones from separate servers other than NOKIA's one(s). The real good thing is that you can select any variant you wish, which solves the problem of several languages disappearing after an NSU or OTA update. Flash the image with JAF, the mass storage remains intact but all of the C drive is wiped.
You can as well reflash one of the many rocking cooked FWs out there, I recommend HyperX's one.

There are many tutorials out there, but I may give you one if you wish.

Good. My dad owns an E7, and I have just reflashed it with HyperX's FW, gives far better, crispier HD video recording.

This is a .sis file which you shall install on your device, but I'm not sure that it is certified, i.e. it will give "expired cerificate" or it is simply an unsigned mod. Therefore, you should reflash a custom FW with rompatcher in it, or simply reflash the firmware which has both the mod and rompatcher.

No updates here?

OVI store doesn't work and Nokia support does not know how fix it whilst the internet is littered with solution, what a joke Nokia is.

Once you've installed Anna, there will be further updates available that sort these issues.

You can get the firmware using navifirm and then flash it with phoenix

I recommend JAF though, take it from experience.

If you are not seeing the updates over the air, then connect up to Ovi Suite over USB. Windows only, needed to use my Work laptop!

Ovi saw the update and applied it straightaway. Nokia seems to have pulled back on OTA since there seems to have been issues.

Seems to be a charm as well, although it is the wife's phone and I didn't get much chance to fiddle

I can assure you the difference in performance, smoothness and *battery life* is significant.

The email app is much faster now and allows easy switching between accounts.

It's a really nice upgrade, it almost feels like a usable phone right now.

Do you know a way to backup the filesystem using rsync from a linux host ?

or any way to safe upgrade it from a non windows host ?
