I'm puzzled as to why this Update (Belle Refresh) is taking so long when we went from ANNA to Belle I found no need to research the above criteria also the Carriers were not even mentioned as being relevant to that Update, in addition the HomeScreen Widgets Update was a complete mystery to me and after coming to this Forum are Still a mystery :)

Question to anyone who knows, when going from ANNA to Belle I lost an App called LOVEFiLM - Long story (phoned Lovefilm and Nokia visited BETALABS) cut short they don;t even do it anymore now,

Anyway at the moment I find myself liking another App called BBC iPLAYER and have a nice widget of it on my Homescreen will I also lose that if by some chance I too am offered the Belle Refesh Update ? because when I went to the BBC iPlayer site using my Wife's Phone it would appear I will definitely lose the ability to play their contents thereafter :(

 Your wife's phone can't be locked to T-Mobile if it has that product code and is a Euro1 UK/Ireland variant. T-Mobiles' product code is 059D4S1.

 I can tell you that the carriers certainly did matter when going from Anna to Belle, so I'm not sure where you got that information from.

 As for the iPlayer question, you've answered that one yourself by testing it on your wifes' phone with the Refresh update.

Ray.

Thank you Ray that information was very helpful :smileyfrustrated:

Hi Dan555

Thanks for the updates on availability of the Nokia Belle Refresh. Can you answer this for me: who is responsible for making the update available for a T-Mobile (UK) N8 ?

Is it Nokia or T-Mobile?

I cannot get a straight answer, each company says it's the other.

If it's T-Mobile and they don't bother publishing it (end-of-life phone) how can I get it for my phone?

Thx, Richard

Nokia has to supply the update to T-Mobile, T-Mobile has to approve it, then Nokia pushes it out. T-Mobile is probably still waiting for the update.

If in the end you're stuck with a product code that's been forgotten about you could try a Nokia Care Centre so they can flash another version or possibly even change your product code (the second is preferable as that means you won't have to go back to the care centre again for the update after that but it depends how friendly they are) or do it yourself but unfortunately as this is an official Nokia board I can't explain how.
