Can Nokia firmware update be done via bluetooth?

[you people are retarded..]

u know when we update our firmware from nokias site, can it be done via bluetooth?

 

[XxMaThIaSxX]

come on now....every firmware update for almost any electronic requires you to power off the phone. you think youd be able to update firmware on your phone if you were using bluetooth? OTA updates are a special exception to the powering off rule. simple answer: no

2 votes for no. While PC Suite does let you connect your device over Bluetooth, NSU specifically requires the data cable to update firmware.

It cannot, but even if it did can you imagine sending 70+mb files via bluetooth

even with the faster bluetooth 2.0 it would take long.

why do you even ask? lost the data cable?

 

[uduak]

It's a shame really. Too many horror stories of the popport data cable coming lose and bricking the phone.

Here's to mini-USB!

Well there is something similar to that called Firmware Over the air (FOTA).
It uses any internet connection to download the firmware minimizing the risk of failing that the USB cable has.

And right N80 and I think N95 also has it.

Updating firmware requires internet connection!

Bluetooth is not going to work! common sense

 

[Raveena S]

even if it does, its risky. I wouldnt want to brake my phone

No go with NSU.
There was an option to flash using Bluetooth with Phoenix service software, but I haven't ever heard of anyone using it.

I also have Device Manager on my E65 but (and I hope this is not a dumb question), do you know the correct settings for FOTA?

You can't "put fota settings" yourself, it has to be included in the firmware.
