The Nokia N97 has received a firmware update to version 22.0.110 which is available via OTA ( Over the Air) and NSU( Nokia Software Update ). This update brings Ovi Maps 3.3 to the device.
Here is a changelog from AllAboutSymbian
Changelog:
- Maps 3.3 with free Navigation built-in
- Nokia Messaging stub built-in (you get the choice of this or standard ’email’ – which is a little confusing! – and in my case choosing ‘Nokia Messaging’ gave an error. Hmmm…..)
- Default screen brightness raised to 75%
- Default theme now the jet black ‘Nseries 2’, giving longer battery life than the previous ‘Nseries 3’
- RAM optimisations
- Miscellaneous bug fixes
At best case, if you do hard reset your N97, you’ll initially have 55MB free on disk C: and almost 60MB of free RAM, both an improvement on previous firmwares.
