In the rather usual, bloated way of Nokia PC suite, it reported an update was available and proceeded to download a massive patch and re-install the whole shebang including a system restart.
On arrival the updated Nokia PC suite reported a new version of the firmware was available for my Nokia 5310. Yet another 60mb of downloads later, the software update was ready to start, but not before I had done a full phone backup using the PC Suite backup tool.
The firmware update did run successfully (taking a further 20 minutes.) It blitzed the phone content, but not the stuff on the memory card. So I was grateful when my backup restored successfully. Unfortunately, all this effort (total time was around an hour,) still didn’t fix the main software gripe I have with the phone, which is the black flicker in the background of all menus and applications as I scroll using the phone or play a game. What a creaky bug, that seems to affect this Nokia 5310 but not my last one. Oh well…
