Firmware update for E71
A new version of the Nokia E71 firmware is out: v200.21.118. Sadly it is only for the European models. I hate it when Nokia does it. How hard can it be to release a syncronized updates for all versions? I would not be surprised if they did it for carrier subsidised models as the carriers might not be too keen on it. But for unlocked versions they should not do this. OK that’s my rant… Here is what the EU users will get:
New functionalities in MCU SW version 200.21.118:
- Internet Radio application
- My Nokia application
- 3G power reduction for applications using keep-alive style messaging
- User experience improvements:
- Easy Dialing support for Simplified Chinese language
- Device Lock improvement: Open device lock with LSK + Fn-keys
- One key input method switch for China language
- ‘Mute’ option in Right Soft Key when wired headset / hands free is connected
- ‘Loudspeaker’ option in Right Soft Key immediately when phone call is started
- Enlarge characters in Chr-table
- NTLM v1 and v2 support for Intranet Browsing
- New black and red themes [e71fanatics.com]
