yeah phone is under warranty ..... and purchased from a nokia dealer ..... i think i will go and ask them to update it ..... lets see if any improvements are there ...... )
 
Hi Rahul,

You need to go to a nokia care center in your city to flash the phone. I stay in mumbai and the closest to me was phoenix. The charges are around 600rs. My phone was in warranty, hence no charge, but a friend of mine had a 6230 and he was charged 600 Rs. All you need is the official bill from the shop where you bought the phone.

For cochin the address where you will need to go to flash the phone is --

Hope that helps
 
BTW guys, suppose my nokia phone supports symbian 6.0, is it possible to upgrade to say 7.0 or something like that, via a firmware upgrade?
 
^^Yeah, but those sort of devices are damn expensive.
A much widely used box called the jaf flasher, used for doing fw upgrade from pc costs a cool 200 dollars.
