The Nokia E7, N8, C7, and C6-01 handsets’ users can now upgrade their handsets to the new Symbian Anna OS update using one of the following the three methods.

>> Nokia Ovi Suite

Download the latest Nokia Ovi Suite Tool (hit the link) and install it on your PC machine. Now open Nokia Ovi Suite on your PC and connect your phone. In Nokia Ovi Suite, select Tools –> Software Updates. From the list of available updates, choose what you’d like to install.

>> Nokia Software Updater (NSU)

Download the Nokia Software Updater Tool (hit the link) and install it on your PC machine. Now open Nokia Ovi Suite on your PC and connect your phone. To check for the software updates, open NSU tool, Select Menu –> Applications –>  tap SW Update and check for the available updates.

>> OTA (Over-The-Air)

To check for the software update manually on the aforementioned Nokia handsets, the users should head over to Settings –> Phone Management –> Device Updates –> Options –> and check for Updates. Symbian blog has mentioned that the Symbian Anna update takes the form of a basic firmware update to version 22.014 (or similar) and some additional application software updates delivered via Sw update. It will be necessary to carry out a two stage update process.

The first stage (e.g. through Device Manager, *#0000# on the Call screen and ‘Check for updates’) will update the firmware to the Symbian Anna version. This includes a number of technical prerequisites for some additional Symbian Anna application updates. The second stage will install some additional software and application updates (including Quickoffice and Adobe reader). The second stage can be done using the ‘Sw Update’ application (look for “Symbian Anna Update 1/2” and “Symbian Anna Update 2/2”).

  1. I live in Jamaica West Indies with Nok E7, carrier is Cable & Wireless (LIME).
    Did the update search but it didn’t show the Anna OS. When about to do the search the screen pops up with ‘Server profiledoes not allow configuration. Enable & start server configuration?
    Don’t know what the heck that means, so I left ti alone. Do you have any advice on that?

  2. So, I don’t get it… This “Anna” update is only for Nokia phones with Symbian^3, or is it for Nokia phones with Symbian S60v5 as well? I have a Nokia n97 and I would LOVE to update its software to ANYTHING that is better then this… :/
