How To: Update Nokia N95 8GB Product Codes For Changing Language Packs

Update your Nokia N95 8GB to a firmware with your preferred language pack by changing the product code on your phone. Updating your Nokia N95 8GB to the latest firmware, and/or changing the language pack is similar to the guide I wrote earlier on changing the product codes in the Nokia N95-1. If you are a new Nokia N95 8GB owner, this might be helpful if you want a different language pack in your new phone.

Download and install: Nemesis Service Suite and the latest Nokia Software Update.

  1. Connect your phone and wait for Windows to install the drivers.
  2. Open Nemesis Service Suite and click “Scan for new device” on the right-upper part of the window
  3. Click on the icon “Phone info”
  4. Click on “Scan”
  5. Change the product code to the one you want from the list below.
  6. Mark the case “Enable”.
  7. Press “Write”, and your phone’s product code will be changed (you might think that nothing happened, because the phone is still in normal mode, and the changing of the product code only takes a couple of seconds, but don’t worry, the product code changed !).
  8. Close Nemesis Service Suite and run the Nokia Software Update.
  9. Make sure not to touch the cable or the phone while your phone is updating or else you will break it!
  10. That’s it! When you restart your phone, it should now be upgraded!

  • I wouldn't want to try these codes on the N95-3 because they are different phones.
  • Helge Ringberg
    Awsome stuff, this is exactly what I was looking for. One question though. What happens if I change the product code to SCANDINAVIAN but there is no scandinavian firmware released?
    I dont know if the scandinavian firmware is released or not, its just the phone isn't released in scandinavia.
  • You can change the code to SCANDINAVIAN, but if the Nokia Software Update doesn't find an update, nothing will be downloaded.

    "I dont know if the scandinavian firmware is released or not, its just the phone isn’t released in scandinavia."

    I live in Sweden and I've had my phone since last week (from the operator 3, www.tre.se)

    Anyways... There aren't any firmwares out yet (at all) for it so you're stuck with your operator bundle until one is released. Right now the N95 8GB firmware seems to be v10.0.021, dated 29-09-07.

    Taz: There aren't country-specific codes, but EURO1 is probably what would be used for a phone sold in the UK.

    Hello!

    First of all, thank you for great information Mark Guim regarding flashing of the N95 8GB!

    Although, I do have one question for you. I'm planning to buy a Nokia N95 8GB in February when I'm going to the States on vacation. But, at the time I will buy the phone, many firmwares might have been released and there will be a long time until a new update will show up. Maybe in June?

    So, if I buy the phone with the newest firmware in February and I change the product code to Scandiavian - what will happen? Will it say "no new updates" since the newest American firmware is inside the phone, or will it download the newest Scandinavian firmware right away since the product code has been changes and NSU can't find any Scandinavian firmware in the phone?

    Thanks a lot for any help here! :)
