(HOW TO) FLASH A NOKIA MOBILEPHONE BY PC USING PHOENIX AND NAVIFIRM

January 31, 2011 Mobile phones, Mobilephone tips and tricks

UPDATE - Please note that the updated post on this topic is here. So if the below given method does not work for you, refer to the new tutorial. WARNING: Phone flashing is a double-edged sword; it may be useful and dangerous at the same time. It may brick/damage your phone for good (if not done carefully), so please DO NOT flash your device if you dont know what the hell flashing a phone means In this post I will explain the use of Phoenix (Nokia service software) to flash a Nokia (Symbian) mobile (taking Nokia N8 as an example). Flashing means re-installing phones firmware (Operating system) files. There are many situations when it becomes necessary to flash a mobile deletion/corruption of system files, phone is dead/bricked or any other method to format the phone is not working etc. Besides, flashing can also be used to update to latest (or any available) firmware or to flash a custom/cooked firmware. So if you have any of the above issue, here goes the process, carefully follow the instructions given below as such: First up, note down your phones SW/firmware version (find by pressing *#0000# at standby screen, not applicable if the phone is dead), product code (on the sticker under battery in the form of 0XXXXXX) and type (look at the sticker under the battery, it is in the form of RM-xxx). 1. Download and install latest version of Phoenix Service Software (2011) in your Windows PC from www.4shared.com or elsewhere (search Google) 2. Download latest version of Navifirm from here. Navifirm is a free software, used to download official

firmware files from Nokia servers 3. Run Navifirm and wait until it loads the Products list (Phone model names/types). A fast internet connection is recommended 4. Find your phone model in the list and select it (For example, select RM-596 for Nokia N8) 5. Wait for a while until Navifirm loads Releases/firmware version list in the adjacent pane. Select the desired release the software version must be the latest one or the one that is already installed in your phone, remember do not select the release/SW version that is older than the one your device already have. If you do not know which firmware version is installed in your phone (like in case the phone is not in working condition) then it is recommended to select the latest version (usually the last one in the list) to be on the safer side. 6. Wait until Navifirm loads Variants in the next adjacent pane (Variants are Product codes of the phone you can find yours at the sticker usually below battery or at the package box). Search and select yours from the list and wait until Navifirm shows firmware files in the last pane. 7. Check all the boxes (in the last pane), choose the save to/download location and click Download button. After download is complete, go to the download folder and copy all the files. 8. Now go to C:/Program Files/Nokia/Phoenix/Products and create a new folder in the last folder (Products) of the above path and name it RM-xxx (which is your phone type code that you noted earlier, replace xxx with your phones actual code numbers, for example it will be RM-596 for N8). Now paste the downloaded files (copied in the Step 7 above) to the newly created folder C:/Program Files/Nokia/Phoenix /Products/RM-xxx. Phoenix will look for the files in the above folder when flashing the phone. 9. Launch Phoenix in PC and connect your mobile via Data/USB cable in PC Suite/Nokia Suite mode. In Phoenix, Go to File/Scan Product, Phoenix will detect the phone. Now select Flashing/Firmware Update 10. At the firmware update window, Phoenix will automatically look up and find the official firmware files earlier downloaded via Navifirm. However if it doesnt find the files then a. Check that the directory C:/Program Files/Nokia/Phoenix/Products/RM-xxx exists, (create if it does not and place the firmware files into it Step 8 above) b. Check that the above path is present in all the three boxes in Tools/Options/Product Location (in Phoenix), set it if it does not and repeat steps 9 onwards. If everything upto step 10 goes successful, click Refurbish button, ignore all the warning boxes that appear during the process. Wait for the process to complete DO NOT touch or disconnect the phone or USB cable during the process. Phoenix will inform you of successful completion of the process, when it does, disconnect and reboot the phone. Thank God that everything went well.hopefully.best of luck You may also try flashing with J.A.F. software, described step-by-step in this post Note - If Phoenix gives error while running in Windows Vista or 7 then try running it in compatibility mode (Right click on Phoenix icon Properties Compatibility Check Run this program in compatibility mode for Windows XP (Service Pack 3 or 2) Click Apply and then OK).

Shoaib Siddiqui Says: September 4, 2011 at 9:51 PM No buddy, with original files flashing you can not install unsigned apps. Instead you should go with the hacking method described in this post http://www.digipassion.com/2011/08/hack-symbian-phones-all-versions-usingnokia-cooker-phoenix.html which is a safe procedure.

Shoaib Siddiqui Says: September 14, 2011 at 12:07 PM Most probably in your case Phoenix will give error during flashing saying that the product code is different. There are workarounds for this issue like changing the product code etc, but it is recommended to wait for the official release for your product.

The Nokia care guys said there was a water trace in the mobile so my warrenty was void and the phone cant be repaired. But after reading this article and downloading the files. I could retrive my dead phone. No extra hardware. Just use ur usb Data cable given with the phone. Thanks a lot. Reply

My new E7 worked for few days and then stopped responding completely. I took it to Nokia Care but they returned it saying it as beyond repair. Then I flashed it using Phoenix and it worked. But after few hours it again froze completely. Now I had to flash it every time it hangs. Even after flashing it doesnt work sometimes. The 8 sec triple vibrate formula doesnt help when it hangs. I am using Phoenix 2012 & Navifirm 1.7. Please Help. BR Reply

Saurabh Sarpotdar Says: March 24, 2012 at 7:02 PM Also another problem I am facing with my Nokia X5-01 is that I am unable to use my built in default Internet browser and 3rd party apps like Utube,facebook etc.. so is this a problem with built-in flash player..?!! because that browser just opens and close automatically and another internet apps are working like opera-mini..!! please suggest a solution..!! Reply

Shoaib Siddiqui Says: March 24, 2012 at 7:49 PM Your problem seems to be due to a corrupt system files/settings. Try formatting/hard resetting the phone and see if the problem is solved if not then flashing is the only way out. Reply
