How to install Symbian without help. Hacked Symbian Anna firmware for Nokia N8 How to install Android on Symbian

Working method, I stitched it myself, if you did something wrong, it's only your fault.
To start, download needed software .Firmware need to pick up very carefully, otherwise you will make the "corpse" of the phone, which is not so easy to recover. We will flash it using "Lite Modification 7.1" for Nokia 5228 as an example. Jaf is suitable for any Nokia phones. If you have another phone, write it in the comments, I will select the firmware for you.
Before stitching, find out the firmware version and RM code, you can easily find it by dialing * # 0000 #, there you will find the version and code, by default on 5228 - RM-625, version 51.1.002. Never downgrade the firmware, otherwise you will just "kill" the phone ... If RM is different, then let the settings be different, only the code will change.
After everyone knew prepare a memory card, delete the folders (patches, installs, private, resource, sys, system) as well, you can format. When flashing, it is desirable that the memory card is in the phone. This is not necessary, but it is advisable to do a full reset of all settings, how to do this, look at this video ... Disable Nokia programs (Nokia Suite). That's it, now we install the program for the firmware.
1. We go to the "JAF installer" folder, launch the application, it is important that the folder path should be located where the operating system is installed, in my case, like this: "C: \\ Program Files \\ ODEON \\ JAF"
2. Go to the "Registry Keys" folder, add two files to the registry.

3. In the folder "INI file of phone models", move the file "jaf_nok4models" to the folder where you installed Jaf, in my case like this: C: \\ Program Files \\ ODEON \\ JAF, when moving, we agree to a replacement. In this file you can find your phone and RM - code.


4. Installing drivers "Flashing Cable Driver". It should be on your desktop.

5.Install the firmware on the PC, the path should be in the drive where the OS is installed, for Windows owners, the path should be "C: \\ Program Files \\ Nokia \\ Phoenix \\ Products \\ RM-625", I have not tested it on other OS.


6. On the Start Jaf shortcut, right-click and select "Fix compatibility issues", after detecting problems, select "Use recommended parameters".


Right-click on the Jaf shortcut, go to the properties and the "Compatibility" section, check the box to run the program in this compatibility mode, and select Windows XP (SP 3).


That's it, you can run the program. Disconnect the phone and connect the USB cable to the motherboard on the back.

Now run Jaf, choose random PKEY Thomas SN and press START.


Once Jaf Reedit opens, from tabs DCT4 go to BB5... The four bulbs should be dark green, check the boxes as in the screenshot.


Press FLASH and choose your phone, I have Nokia 5228 and code RM-625, names do not always match the code.
If done correctly, the paws should light up bright green.
Click again on FLASH, a warning will pop up that if you downgrade the firmware version, you will kill the phone, click and the firmware will occur.


After clicking yes, turn on the phone until the white screen lights up.
We look at the firmware status, if the phone is not found, close the program and repeat the procedure again.
Now all that remains is to wait until the firmware is downloaded to the phone, if all goes well, should be written in the end Done!


Thereafter phone enters Local Mode, it is important to wait until it reboots, we don’t do anything in this mode, we wait a maximum of 20 minutes and after that it will turn on.


Leave your questions, we will also select the firmware for your version and code. So, on August 27, 2012, another update of the Symbian ^ 3 (Anna, Belle) operating system to version 111.040.1511 - Symbian Belle Refresh was released. This update is available to owners of Nokia N8, Nokia E7, Nokia X7, Nokia C7, Nokia C6-01 and Nokia Oro.

Attention! Those who have HCC as an operator should wait for the fixes of bugs in the new firmware. Or you will have to switch to another operator. Smartphones running Symbian Belle Refresh for some unknown reason refuses to make and receive calls! SMS works normally, but you won't be able to call even at 112.


OS Symbian Belle Refresh brings the following innovations:

At the same time, as is usually the case, you should expect some applications that were running on the previous software version to fail.

Renewal methods (myths and reality)

According to the developers, to successfully update the system, it is enough to download and launch the new version of Nokia Suite, connect the smartphone to the computer using a USB cable and follow the instructions. At the same time, all contacts, notes in notes and other important data will be saved, and only some installed applications may be affected. In reality, everything is not so smooth and most users experience so-called glitches, slowdowns and other manifestations of unstable smartphone operation. Experimentally, three ways of updating smartphones have been identified, which ensure stable operation of devices after installing OS Symbian Belle Refresh, and all of them are not without sacrifices.

The first method is simpler, but most users are already late to use it. So, for a successful update, it is advisable to get rid of everything that you have ever installed in your smartphone. Simply put, you need to reset to factory settings using the combination * # 7370 #, but before that, it is advisable to format the built-in memory (drive E - Nokia N8). Then you can launch Nokia Suite and it will prompt you to do the rest. All that remains is to follow the instructions.


If you have already tried to update your smartphone to OS Symbian Belle Refresh, but did not reset and format the memory, and after the update felt that the smartphone is not working stably, you can try to reset, format the internal memory of the device (or memory card) and reinstall the new version Software using the same Nokia Suite.


If you decide on a complete flashing of your smartphone, Phoenix will come to your aid, which we will tell you about in more detail.

For the firmware you need:

  • and also possibly a single driver for all Nokia phones and Nokia Service Application Manager.

    Take your time with the second point, since the above Phoenix in most cases works stably without using the second and third programs. If problems arise and Phoenix does not see the smartphone, then you will have to use Nokia Service Application Manager to remove everything related to Nokia, and then install a single driver and Phoenix itself.
    Attention! Phoenix takes a long time to install even on powerful computers. Therefore, do not panic if it seemed to you that the computer is frozen!

    Special attention!!! All programs, including the firmware, can be installed only by right-clicking on the shortcut, with the choice of administrator rights! Phoenix launch is similar!


    On Windows XP, there are problems with the choice of administrator rights. If you have a similar situation, we skip this step and do it as usual.

    Symbian Belle Refresh firmware

    Naturally, you will need the firmware itself, which must be installed in the same folder where Phoenix was installed:

    Working with Phoenix

    So, Phoenix is \u200b\u200binstalled, the firmware is also installed. Move on. We launch phoenix (with administrator rights), connect the smartphone to the computer via a USB cable and see a window. You may need to wait a little (30-60 seconds) to install the drivers.


    Click on the NO CONNECTION line and select the RM-XXX connection (XXX is your product code version). The word Ready should appear at the bottom left of the window.

    After that, go to the upper tabs of the program window. We press File\u003e Scan Product and wait for something like this to appear in the bottom pane of the window:


    Then again go to the top tabs and click Flashing -\u003e Firmware Update, after which a new small window will open in which the product code of your smartphone should appear.


    If the column with the product code remains empty, click on the small button with an ellipsis and select the desired product code from the list that appears in the new window. If there is a check mark in the "Detect Produkt Automatically" window, uncheck it and select the product code manually.


    In this list, you need to select any product code similar to your smartphone, for example, if you are from Ukraine and you have a black phone, then select the product code with the name xxx_ukraine_black or xxx_ukr_black (dg - dark gray), (white smartphone - WHITE, etc.), but in general, you can choose any product code you like, because they all include Russian. The main thing is that the three numbers after the letters RM coincide with those that you saw when you dialed the combination * # 0000 #.
    Attention! If you select a Kazakhstani product code, then your FM-translator (Nokia N8) may disappear.
    Then click OK, and after closing the window with the product codes, click in the left window on the button Update Software... The firmware will start, which should end with the appearance of this window:


    After the handles stretch on the smartphone screen, you can disconnect the smartphone from the computer and start setting up accounts and everything else that is required in everyday life. That is, you can start using the "new" smartphone. Congratulations!

    Dead mode flashing or bringing a dead smartphone back to life

    There is a slightly different outcome of "dancing with a tambourine" while flashing smartphones or simply, as a result of your experiments with various programs. In simple terms, sometimes a firmware crash happens. In this case, the smartphone does not turn on and all that you can see when you try to turn on the device is a white screen with the inscription NOKIA. In this case, do not panic if you have not downgraded the firmware version, since you can return the firmware in dead mode.

    To do this, you will need the same Phoenix, but you need to run it differently. First, Phoenix is \u200b\u200blaunched without connecting a smartphone to a computer. Secondly, we do not touch the NO CONNECTION window and immediately go to the File tab, and then select Open Product.


    Then we select our product code from the list provided:


    Then again go to the Flashing tab, click on the Firmware Update line and see the window that appears. First of all, you need to check the "Dead Phone USB flashing" box.


    Then, if your firmware is not indicated in the product-code line, click on [...], after which another small window will open with a list of available product-codes. If there is a check mark next to "Detect Produkt Automatically", uncheck it and select the product code manually.


    Choose the one that matches your country and smartphone color. After that, press the OK button in this window and go to the left small window. Press the SW Reset button and see the following (or similar) window:


    To proceed with the firmware, you must follow the points indicated in the small window.

    For example, for Nokia N8, the steps are as follows:

    • Disconnect the USB cable (but we didn't even connect it).
    • Hold down the power button for 8-10 seconds (up to triple vibration).
    • Connect USB cable to smartphone.
    • Click on the OK button.
    Depending on the smartphone model, the label may contain other requirements.
    For instance:
    • Disconnect USB cable.
    • Remove the battery from the smartphone.
    • Connect USB cable.
    • Insert the battery and press the power button
    • Click OK

    And other options ...

    Whatever they are, they must return to life the smartphone on which the firmware has flown (except when the latter is downgraded).
    If it doesn't work the first time, try again, and again. In case of failure when flashing through the SW Reset button, you can try to flash through the Refurbish button. The main thing is not to give up and everything will definitely work out.

    Attention! All actions performed with your (and even more so someone else's) smartphone, you do at your own peril and risk. The site administration is not responsible for the performance of smartphones.
    To work with Phoenix, it is recommended to use only the original USB cable that came with your smartphone!

    After updating the software of Nokia smartphones to version 111.040.1511 - Symbian Belle Refresh, they can be easily hacked. To do this, you must follow the instructions for those who installed the Belle FP1 update and activate the Install Server RP + v1.7.rmp patch.

    Good luck with your firmware!

  • A little about Symbian

    The Symbian operating system supports a variety of so-called network protocol requirements and is widely used in many countries around the world. Today, the main competitors of Symbian are mobile versions of Linux and Palm OS. Recently, its competition has intensified with the Windows Mobile system, which is gaining more and more fans.

    Can I install Symbian myself?

    Symbian is one of those mobile operating systems that are embedded into a microcircuit directly by the manufacturer at the stage of manufacturing or. Therefore, it is impossible to install Symbian on your own in the literal sense of the word: for this you need to reflash the phone. But it is quite possible to restore Symbian in case of damage by a virus or an unexpected software failure. The owner of the phone at any time can "reset" his operating room, returning it to its default settings, set at the factory. To do this, turn off the phone (smartphone), and when turned on, press and hold three buttons: call acceptance ("green handset"), the key with the number 3 and the "asterisk" symbol. Symbian will revert to factory settings immediately after switching on the phone.

    Do I need a flashing to install Symbian correctly?

    If you still firmly intend to replace one version of Symbian with another or reinstall Symbian correctly on your smartphone, we advise you to think carefully before that. Any change to the firmware is considered illegal and is strictly prohibited by the manufacturer. In this case, he ceases to bear the guarantee for the device he sold and does not provide services for further service. All responsibility for the subsequent functioning of the phone, its possible breakdown is borne by its owner. Also, in no case should you install a Symbian version that was not previously installed on a particular phone. For example, Symbian 9.1 cannot be replaced by Symbian 9.4.

    Good day, you want to have Symbian Anna?
    Yes, in fact, it already exists and you can already download it, but this particular firmware will be a little better, in that you know about the need for certificates, at least you should know what a certificate is, I think so, although I will not be lazy describe. There are times when you cannot start the game, or the program, anything can happen, but when the "Error in the certificate" is written out, this application seems to be screaming for what you need a certificate, no, of course, you can get a certificate, but it will be now not complete.

    At the request of Ilya Kurgashov, who has already tried the firmware on his Nokia N8, and wrote just a few words about the pros and cons of the firmware, and also described how to install the firmware on the phone. He also helped to write this article with information.
    Cons: I personally didn't notice, maybe someone won't like the interface, but there's nothing you can do about it!
    Pros: The performance has not increased directly to heavenly heights, but noticeably, the life time has also increased by about 20%;

    Installing Symbian Anna:
    Before installing, it is better to delete everything from the phone, or even better to make a backup copy of all files, after which it is necessary to make a hard reset (* # 7330 #).

    Symbian Anna firmware for Nokia N8

    After installing the phoenix, then the firmware itself. Next, you need to restart your computer.
    There are two options for installing the program:
    If you have a 64-bit version of Windows, you need to read point 1, if not, go directly to point 2.
    Paragraph 1.
    Installed Phoenix can be found in Program files (x86), and the firmware itself in regular Program files. Go to the C: \\ Program Files \\ Nokia \\ Phoenix \\ Products directory and copy the “RM-596” folder and move it to C: \\ Program Files (x86) \\ Nokia \\ Phoenix \\ Products.

    Point 2.
    Then what comes out, you installed the phoenix and the firmware (moved to the folder according to point 1), uninstall OVI Suite and everything related to Nokia, for example Map loader, and so on. If you watch all installed programs through CCleaner, then only Nokia connectivity and Fleshing cable driver should be from Nokia, if they are not there, then you don't need to worry much, just reboot (applies to everyone). Then connect your phone to your computer in Suite mode. After that, wait until the computer detects some drivers, and in theory a white N8 should appear, in the taskbar (below), if it appears, then everything is fine.
    Now you have to go into the phoenix itself, according to Ilya, he had an antivirus turned on, and he did not break through any warnings, but still it is better to turn it off. Well, after turning on the phoenix, click File and then select the Scan product item, an inscription with the name of the firmware designation, for example RM-569, should appear on the bottom right (maybe something else depends on the device.), And then click Fleshing -\u003e Frimware update , in theory there is nothing there. Click on the three dots and select China_prs_dark_grey there. Then you should press Options and delete two lines, which are written in red (highlight - del. (On the keyboard)). Then you agree by clicking OK, then click Referbish.

    After all these actions, the installation of the firmware should begin, as Ilya said, there were no errors during the installation, and everything went very smoothly.
    I remind you that Ilya Kurgashov helped write this article, who wrote the installation instructions himself from personal experience, and also described his opinion about it.
