Belle FP2 temporarily pulled due to issues
For those wondering what happened to their update to FP2 that began rolling out yesterday, it got pulled as there’s some issue with it:
Hi all,
just a quick heads up. We’ve heard about some issues after the update and now decided to take the update files off our servers until we have investigated the case.
I’ll announce it here once the update is available again, but for the moment please don’t worry if your phone doesn’t get the update.
Thanks!
Best regards,
Yvonne
Cheers stormtroller for the tip!

- Nokia Belle FP2 Update is Live…Oh Wait It’s Not | Lowyat.NET | January 29, 2013
surprise, surprise.. Although mine is ok. But had to go back to default theme
‘Had do’….any particular reason or just preferring the default theme?
There were some quirks with custom themes. Some icons not showing and browser was freezing whilst loading pages. Read on forums of theme faults, so tried default and all went ok.
I see. Perhaps it may take some time for the custom themes to catch up again with FP2? Not sure how they usually work regarding updates.
I’ve noticed that I’m no longer able to unlock the device by pressing the home/start/whatever button on the phone and then pressing “unlock”, the only way is to unlock it from the side slider button.
Don’t know if it should be like this, or if there is an error…
just swipe to unlock! swipe to left or right to unlock the device meego style
Thank you!
I feel stupid now. This is excellent! Maybe I should have read the change log…
and there comes the update!!! and … its gone.
lol,haha
i have downloaded the apac files but i guess no-one wants them?
disaster
After i updated via PC suite my 808 to FP2 yesterday, Nokia Music did not work & no video editor pro.
Then Nok Music eventually works & I got Video Editor Pro after I re-flashed the latest FW using Phoenix.
(BTW even before Fp2 was released, I flashed the v.0311 firmware to my phone using phoenix because everytime I check for update, PC suite always say my phone already has the latest firmware which is v.0309).
Steps:
1. I deleted all the v.0311 related files (which I got from Navifirm before) on this directory:
C:\Program Files\Nokia\Phoenix\Products\rm-807
2. I copied all the contents of these 2 directories to C:\Program Files\Nokia\Phoenix\Products\rm-807.
a) C:\ProgramData\Nokia\Nokia Suite\NOSSU2\variants\Products\rm-807
b) C:\ProgramData\Nokia\Nokia Suite\NOSSU2\variants\Production External\Products\rm-807
(The contents of the 2 directories above were downloaded by PC suite itself when I updated my phone to FP2).
3) I chose “Software Reset” on phoenix.
Nokia Music now works & I also have the Video Editor pro.
But I still don’t have the Microphone icon on Maps search.
thanks. will try to flash from phoenix now
the mic (voice search) in maps is region specific. If you are in UK or germany you’ll be able to see the icon.
My phone will not start after (incomlete) update.
It is completely dead !!
(Yes, I pulled out the battery to no avail)
Nokia Browser 8.3 on N8-00 Belle Refresh locks up pretty often too. OFW and CFW. Something is quite broken about it.
My e7 has locked up twice since the ota update to belle refresh, i can’t say much more than that as i woke up to the phone alarm and it was unresponsive ..
Its definitely a mixed update; overall its an improvement, but some irritating changes …
- long press on an email brings up a large context menu in the middle of the screen rather than the smaller one where you pressed. Much preferred the old design.
- lock screen notification of having an alarm set has gone!
The context menu in the middle of the screen seems to be Qt-specific. I assume the dialog shows a light blue title heading with a dark gray background? Then they could have finally ported the email client UI to Qt
Nope, no title, just the entries Delete/Mark as unread/Move to folder/Mark.
Does actually look a little better, but coming from the previous look, it doesn’t actually work as well.
there is issue with battery. its eaten too fast
Really? I’m not seeing any obvious difference.
Was at a full charge last night, and right now its at 95%. Thats pretty much the same as before.
Just remember to kill off the weather task that is still auto-starting for no particularly good reason.
I thought so! I Tweeted this yesterday, after a full recharge, i pulled the charger out before i went for a shower, 10 minutes later it was on 89% with nothing open and no connections. I was practically empty this morning and normally i get 48 hours out of my 808. The other problem now is, it keeps saying ‘Sim Registration Failed’ Not happy at all!
yes, skyee looks nice
Here it’s a bigger image: http://i1245.photobucket.com/albums/gg600/skye2977/blackwhite.jpg
Finally a fully usable symbian ,version, and the last one…
Who knew?
In the meantime, could they please release Belle Refresh for the people that haven’t gotten it yet.. The people that have been waiting for over a month??
as i mentioned about the leaked fp2 the UIs weren’t loading all the time with the apps and camera only way to resolve was a reboot
must have the same bugs
Anyone want to take a guess at when fp2 will be available again – 1 week, 1 month or longer!?
Much frustration!
It looks like an unmitigated disaster. I’m not a betting man, but if I were, I’d say months.
Who wants to bet it is primarily language variant related stuff that they didn’t bother to test?
Well after mass sackings and staff prioritised to Lumia updates, does to surprise you? The 808 is one classic phone i will never depart with, but it will also be my last Nokia..
I just hope Rim or Jolla or someone can give me an alternative replacement in the future for the 808.. At the moment , there is just nothing else..not even Windows.
Look at the bright side, it’s not as big a failure as Apple Maps! And their new camera has that purple problem too
Lol, yes.. My son got the IP5, not at all happy with Maps debacle.. He needs it for Business..
I really only have one major problem, and that is the Browser..
we have 2 n808. both updated with fp2. one seems to work fine. the other has issues that it did not have before : it cannot hold onto the wifi signal for more than a minute and drops the wifi. it did NOT have this problem before the update to FP2. So I sent a mail and a person from nokia support telephoned (thank you for that)… however, he told me to uninstall & re-install nokia suite (which i did right after the telephone call) and to update the nokia 808 again to FP2 by using the download button in nokia suite software update icon.
so guess what.
nokia suite says the telephone is up to date. basta. can’t get another shot at the update as he said…. hmmmm….
i did the update to FP2 the first time via wifi. but now that is no longer an option with wifi dropping every 60 seconds…
so, the techy that called (very friendly) gave me false information : un installing reinstalling did not make the update available by “magic” in nokia suite…
i don’t think someone should tell the techys to stop telling people false information – it is frustrating and absolutely DESTROYS consumer confidence and doesn’t help the brand : and that’s what they want at nokia, isn’t it ? they love shooting themselves in the foot perhaps maybe ?
Sooo, I’m still hoping for a solution to the Nokia error that keeps dropping the wifi AFTER the FP2 update.
i updated to belle pack 2 OTA….now i can’t launch nokia music. can anyone help
