Nokia’s N78 Firmware Update, Again.

There’s nothing surprising when Nokia drive out another firmware update to one of its S60 handsets. This user-installable firmware update is said to be launched for European model before the North American model. No, this is not an ordinary post. There’s something different now, particularly in the way of distribution of the update. The company is finally taking advantage of S60’s over-the-air update capability, allowing users to nab the 2MB binary for the European variant of the N78 right over a WiFi or 3G connection (GPRS / EDGE too, we imagine, but that’d be pretty painful). Version 11.043 is said to imbue handsets with “improved stability with Bluetooth (headsets and car kits) and music (playback over a long time and content refresh)” alongside “optimized Camera performance and Naviscroll sensitivity improvements,” so we’d say it’s pretty much a no-brainer to grab — particularly since it doesn’t mean sitting down in front of the PC with a USB cable and an iron will.
Auto Rotation for N95 8 GB
Auto rotation for the nokia N95 8GB or also called N95-2 is included in the latest version of firmware, which is version 20.0.016. At the default, this option was not turned on. To turn it on, here is a video from the Nokia Blog which is containing how to turn Auto rotation on Youtube.
Compare with N82 Rotation, the Nokia N95 8GB rotates even on the main active display. The Nokia N82 does not rotate on the active display. I also noticed that the N95 8GB is more responsive. In my opinion, the screen rotation is much more useful on the Nokia N95 8GB because of the bigger screen.
