Nokia's N95-3 sees first firmware update
Version 11.2.009 firmware is out and ready to dance on the North American flavor of the N95. This marks the first update for Nokia's N95-3. So far, we've found a browser update with font size and history list. We're not expecting the type of overhaul seen for Europe's classic model but we're still digging for more. Anyone else finding fixes for their favorite nits? If so, let us know in the comments.[Thanks, Alon T.]

Guys, does this N95-3 you tested has Voip (Internet Calling in other words) ? Coz i am looking to buy one, but have to be 100% sure it was not removed from the firmware. Thanks. Alex

if removed, that's most likely due to the carrier? If it has SIP/VoIP at release, then it remains. But yes, N95 has VoIP.

amby, there are no carriers who offer the N95-3. This is a phone for the AT&T 850/1900 MHz W-CDMA (3G) network, but AT&T has not picked it up (too bad, it would have been their top end phone).
Thus, you can only get the N95-3 unbanded/OEM. Yes, "Internet calling" (VoIP) works fine afrer this update.

Anyone know when Nokia is going to relase the new firmware for the RM-159 N95?
i cant beleive the US N95 got an update before my old school N95 did

Your N95-1 can run firmware v20 and voip was probably removed from the N75 because ATT doesn't want you to have it.

well i just did a little search on google and managed to change my country code thing and can no update just fine, but man do firmware updates for chinese N95's take forever. I bought mine through the web, currently live in the USA, and had no say in what country my N95 came from
Ben @ Dec 11th 2007 1:04PM
Do you have an n95-1 or an N95-3?
Ben @ Dec 11th 2007 1:07PM

Break @ Dec 11th 2007 1:15PM

NP, i have an n95-1 too and it feels better than my "superior" n95-3...i just wish this update had had some of the features that were in V20. Anyone find a changelog yet???

Well I dont know what you are talking about, I have 3 N75-3's from at&t (one still runs the at&t firmware) and they all have SIP and VoIP support, although TruPhone does not support the N75 (big bummer).
Ben @ Feb 22nd 2008 9:21AM
I was referring to RAM, battery consumption, and over all speed/tweaks to the system. A little googling on the the firmware (v20) changes in N95-1's vs the present state of the N95-3's firmware (v11) will show what I mean.
