Hello

Does anyone know what the official Nokia position is regarding Nokia Suite supporting the Noklia 301?  I'd like to be able to sync music, install any future firmware upgrades etc etc without needing to use a mobile data connection.  If Nolkia aren;t going to upgrade Nokia Suite to support the 301 is there going to be an alternative?

    Hi, bha2804. You must be referring to Nokia Suite as you have posted the message under the thread discussing the topic, right? :-)

    Well, Nokia 301 and the other new S40 and Asha devices don't support Nokia Suite. What do you want to achieve? Do you want to transfer files between your PC and phone? Do you want to update the software of the device? Or use the phone as a modem?

    Please provide us details so we can advise what's appropriate regarding your case.

    In many cases, Nokia does not mention firmware updates on their page because they have that ‘product code’ issue: Each unit has a product code which determines the firmware variant. Some versions do not reach all firmware variants, furthermore, some versions take very long to reach certain firmware variants. This product-code mess, kills ‘we have a new firmware version’ for the marketing department. Consequently, for some versions, nobody talks about it at Nokia.

    Hi Abi, thanks for following up.

    Yeah I actually did it with the "delete all" command the first time (I did it again then, but but it doesn't change anything).

    I've just tried the tool you suggest me; I had to run it on a virtual machine with Win 7 as on my computer I have Windows Vista and it was not compatible. But after I connected the phone under Nokia Software Recovery Tool, it only proposed me to upgrade to "software version 10.24", which seemed to be related to firmware as it was also said I had to leave the phone connected and not removing it during the update or it could make it stop working... But that's strange I can't find any track of a firmware v.10.24 for Nokia Asha 208 on Nokia dev website for instance (only on some alternative firmware download websites).

    The upgrade actually didn't work out (stopped at 10%), but that may be because the virtual machine (i'll try to test on another computer if you think it can help). No harm to my phone though, and I tried to check for FOTA upgrade via the phone, but it says no firmware update available...

    SMS and Gallery still sync with Nokia Suite... And still this Contacts error message only...

    did you try the ‘delete all’ option in your Nokia, both for contacts and groups? If that does not help, I would go for the Nokia Software Recovery Tool on a Windows computer because the contact database of your Nokia might gone corrupt.
