This Service is available to UK Residents Only.
Send us
your phone and we will debrand it for you.
We have the necessary tools and latest
mobile firmware's (software flash files) to
enable us to flash the software in your
phone for you.
What is
Firmware Upgrading?
At FoneFunShop, we have access to all the latest Firmware Files for
your Mobile Phone.
Did you know that when most phones are
released (especially Nokia's) that there are, on average at least 5
new firmware's released for your phone !!
Why Upgrade?
Like PC Software, manufacturers
improve & patch the firmware in your mobile phone. These
patches improve the phones performance and correct bugs.For example: Nokia N70's have
Bluetooth problems in most early software versions, and loose
connection intermittently. A new firmware upgrade will fix
this.
Bonus Benefits Of Our Upgrade Service
If Possible, we will only use generic firmware and not
operator versions of firmware, so you also get your phone debranded
too ! Once your mobile has been de-branded, you will
notice all the menu systems are clearer, un-restricted, and often faster
too. This often removes any software glitches that your
phone previously had. Also some network firmware's prevent you uploading
ringtones & pictures via cable, or manually setting your internet homepage
and web / wap / picture message settings, debranding enables you to do this.
How do
I Check My Current Firmware Version?
Press *#0000# on your nokia to view
your current firmware version.
You can check your Nokia firmware
version against our
list of available firmware's. If a
version listed for your model is higher, then you need a firmware
