N81 Firmware Update - v11.0.045

The N81 firmware has been updated to 11.0.045, and is now available through NSU for some product codes. The update includes the Online Share app where Vox and Flickr can be activated and setup. The Navi-wheel is reported to be much more responsive.

Morpog has a great initial report over at Symbian-Freak. Some highlights of his experience with it so far-

- Flash Lite is still at V2.0

- about 2-3mb less ram after fresh bootup, not sure how much because I can't remember the size before flashing.

- Browser doesn't seem to crash anymore when scrolling very fast through bookmarks.

- Realplayer still stutters from time to time when viewing Video Podcasts. CorePlayer does alot better job still.

- Music player sets volume back to its Volume before a Warning tone appeared. Before update it stayed at Profile set Volume of Warning tone, which was very annoying.

- Camera images seem to be a bit less noisy. But it's still horrible at low light situations.

- Just had my first phone hang, I was on Gallery and listening to music. Music stopped, so I watched from my Computer display to my Mobile display and thought what's going on? Tried to start music again but noting happened. Tried to navigate in gallery, nothing happened. Tried swithing to Taskmanager, but it hangs on switch from gallery to taskmanager. Sreensaver and Standbye seems to work still, but i cannot do anything. Even power off doesnt work. Needed to put out battery. My baby runs again. Will let you know if that happens more often.

Fantastic initial look at the firmware- certainly a worthwhile update with some great changes in there. Though once again, and official changelog would be nice so that users know what they're in for.

My Navi Wheel has stopped working even though it is switched on. Does anyone know if this firmware will repair it?

It's possible. Sometimes just reinstalling your current firmware will resolve issues like that. Certainly worth a shot...
