One of my friend have a Nokia5800 xpress music with firmware version v21, i tried to update the firmware to the latest version v50, but the "software updater" is only showing v30 version. So i updated it into v30. Now both ovi and nokia pc suit are saying that the device is up to date(v30),but he need v50 for new features like kinetic scrolling etc...what to do? I searched the net, but it looks like no one had this kind of trouble:S
 
If you are new to this then you should read every tutorial properly

the problem is of the product code - not all firmwares are released for every product code

There are 2 methods to install v50 on your friend's phone -

1]Change the product code and then install the new firmware - not recommended by me as it is old method

2]Try searching for how to install a custom firmware on 5800 -

download navifirm and there you can download original 5800 latest firmware and then you can install the firmware downloaded through method suggested by the tutorial you got through google :)

i hope you have understood :)
 
Thanks for the reply
So the v50 firmware is only available for some 5800's? why do nokia do something like that:huh:
He don't need custom firmware, just need the official version which can be updated normally through pc suit.

make sure you do a factory reset after update to improve performance
