“Nokia Software Update now has firmware v31.0.016 available for the Nokia N82, weighing in at 118MB. The N82 has UDP, but best to back up anyway, just in case. On my N82, even after trying everything I can think of, Maps 2.0 is royally screwed. Other problems too.
In my case, after upgrading, I hit lots of hangs (all involving Nokia Maps), requiring battery-out-restarts, so I used *#7370# to wipe the internal disk back to ‘factory’ status and am now rebuilding by syncing data and installing third party apps. At least this way, I end up with a fully optimised phone, but it’s taking a while….. [Later] Maps is still misbehaving, hanging after launching and answering the ‘Go online’ question. I’m not pleased.Mobitubia is also behaving erratically, implying again that there’s something buggy in the media side of this OS build. More data points needed though – other upgraders needed etc.Watch this space for a changelog. Mainly bug fixes, I suspect. Note that v30 firmware was already protected against SDK ‘hack’ tampering, so v31 here is for other reasons. If you can help add to a changelog or have a suggestion to fix my Maps problem, please comment!” via allaboutsymbian.com
