Yup, this, I couldn't recall the detail, thanks for elaborating.

@OP: Use the flashing guide and put the 001 firmware onto your phone. There's no need to wait, nor change your product code. Also, this way you don't have to wait for future firmware versions either.
Well, I am not telling him, he asked for the instructions

The problem is, that guy who had issues flashing, used the NSS Pro, instead of the plain NSS. Had he used the latter, he should've never got into trouble... That's why I posted the direct link for the plain NSS and spared him the trouble of downloading the wrong one.

I can attest that there isn't any problem using the plain NSS. I changed mine 3 times, from AU to CE to NE, without ANY upgrade issues whatsover...

Of course, there should always be a warning. If you don't know what you're doing, stay out of it...

And yes, there's no need to change the product code to flash to a different fw version - as long as it's of the same PR or higher.... It's a given (for those in the know at least)

There may be light at the end of the tunnel. I found news at the Nokia website:

http://www.nokia.com/ch-de/support/produkte/n9-00/

The PC 059L5D0 should be the corresponding one to the swiss-german N9, isn't it?

I just checked with NAVIFIRM - 059L5D0 is still at PR1.1. Flashing is your best bet, especially because a number of people have had problems with leftover data from PR1.1 after upgrading to PR1.2 (especially w/ the e-mail client).

Alright, alright...I was just hoping to prevent more people from ending up in the same situation with a corrupted HW variant. /me shrugs

Just 24hr ago he was saying he was told by the peeps behind both apps...
That NSS Pro is the successor to NSS, & the one that should be used nowadays
But yeah as a rule most folks should just stay away from it, not necessary.

yesterday I got PR 1.2 OTA and installed it without any problems. Thanks to the developer crew and the community.

I own a Nokia N9 with product code 059L5D0 and still there is no notification to update to version PR1.3! Anyone else with this issue? Any info about when this update will be available?

Thanks!
