Hi all,

great news! We just started to roll out our next update for Symbian called Nokia Belle Refresh for Nokia N8, Nokia E7, Nokia C7, Nokia C6-01, Nokia X7 and Nokia Oro with version number 111.040.1511 (Nokia E6, version number 111.140.0058, will follow still this week, Nokia 500 updates will follow shortly).

This update again brings new features to Symbian smartphones, for example:

-          a new browser with HTML5 web apps support, a new set of homescreen widgets, and the previously released Microsoft Office Mobile App and Nokia Maps Suite 2.0 in one package.

-          Nokia N8 will have some extra apps for imaging

The update will be rolled out in phases, starting with the vanilla versions (ie. basic software variants without any specific operator or country configuration). Country and operator variants will follow within the next weeks, depending on local and operator approvals.

pS: Just like after updating from Nokia Anna to Nokia Belle, some apps may not work due to compatibility issues. If you need more information on available apps, please contact your local Nokia Care support. Furthermore, you can also contact the respective App developer to enquire about the compatibility.

Best regards,

Yvonne from Nokia Care

    I just upgraded my c6-01. I really haven't seen much of a difference, but we shall see. I did notice a slight change in my web browser, but I hardly ever use that.  I have had recent battery issues. If this upgrade solved that problem, it would be great.  Remains to be seen though.

    I also upgraded my C6-01. The main visible differences in the  browser are:

    1. The progress bar now is like all other browsers: it only fills up when all the elements of the page are loaded. Previously, the progress bar started from zero for each element of the page and that was so much confusing...
    2. There's a new setting under 'General': 'Open while downloading'. (as my phone is set to Portuguese, I don't know if those are the exact words on a phone set to English). When this setting is actived, it's possible to browse the page while it's been downloaded.

    There are two things still missing...

    1. Why isn't it possible to schedule a meetting with a contact? For instance: a doctor's contact on my phone has the address of the doctor. I want to schedule an appointment with the doctor and I want his(hers) address to be visible on the calendar widget, so I can easily tap it and open Maps. The natural way do do that would be to find the doctor's contact on the phone and use a (missing) menu option: schedule meeting. So simple... Why haven't Nokia implemented that yet? 
    2. The default browser setting is not followed by some apps, mainly the Mail app. I have set Opera 11 as my phone's default browser, but the native Mail app insists on opening the native browser whenever I tap on a link.

    Is there any replacement for ovi sync for the belle OS? surely the ability to sync the native calender to an on-line calender is a basic feature? one that we had...

    A basic software update could allow us to redirect the calender away from the now defunct Ovi to something useful like google or windows live with out having to fork out for an app that does what we used to be able to do?

    You can setup Google or Hotmail account through Exchange Active Sync to sync calendars and contacts.
