it depends on which operator you're with, if you want the latest ones when theyre out you need to unbrand the phone

I tried to do this update before going to the ring a couple of weeks ago.

Thought I'd clear memory card and update, leaving loads of room for pics and
vids of the trip.

Re-booted phone and.......

















Start up failed, please contact supplier.

Ended up taking a crappy 2M camera.

From the Nokia Site:

Nokia N95 software version 21.0.016 released - 26 March 2008

This software version includes Flash Lite 3 support (enabling users to watch Flash video web sites such as YouTube) and Widget support. The release also includes standby-time improvements and improvements to Bluetooth headset interoperability.

And the biggest pain in the arse - when sending a txt using predictive txt, pressing the down menu button no longer changes the character to the next in line.

8gb uses different firmware, you may well be on the latest.

Other than that, try unbranding the phone (change the product code to a general nokia one), i know with mine it wouldn't let me update because i was with t mobile

you only need nss to change the product code, then use the nokia software updater to do the rest. Do a search on here for n95 and there's links to 'how to's'
