Nope. Why spend $50 for internet when I can spend $10? I get decent speeds when I'm surfing or streaming, around 2mb/s.

+1, particularly when all carriers are doing things like this:

Seems this version comes with either a bug or featurethat prevents uploading from the gallery to your social accounts. Kind of annoying since this feature has been there from day 1 on the N8. Maybe that's why the update got pulled when using Nokia suite. Hopefully another version gets released soon to fix this.

My currently installed copy of NOKIA SUITE is 3.2.100. Yesterday when i opened it, it said a new update is available which will let me flash Belle software to my phone. The new version is v.3.3.86.0.

WHen i finished downloading the 68MB file, it says its not signed by Nokia and shows a Install Error.

Any one else seen this?

Thanks in advance.

I would try uninstalling Nokia suite and reinstall it to see

I have completely given up trying to install Belle. No matter what I do it will not install. Actually I am happy with Anna even though it wont install part 2, but everything works. Only problem I have is terrible battery usage.

Joe ...
- Backup your device to Memory card
- Note all the custom software installed & find installs (U will need to re-install) If U don't have installs, check N8 FanClub (Google it)
- Install latest version of Nokia Suite to your PC (dunno 'bout Mac)
- backup using Nokia Suite to your PC (redundant, I know, but better SAFE)
- do *#7370# on your phone, hard reset will wipe out offending sh*t preventing install (very IMPORTANT)
- Install Belle from Nokia Suite (think U'll like it !)

and ... there U go - don't know about your other attempts, but this should functionally set your phone up to take Belle ...

some of your OLD software will NOT work with Belle, however, I have found suitable replacements for anything I needed

**CaifanSC** · 02-24-2012, 12:10 AM

Dang it! Slacker is not working with Belle.....any suggestions from you guys as to what other music app to use?

**Phone Crazy** · 02-24-2012, 02:28 AM

A great music app is Nokia Internet Radio. I don"t have Belle, but it should work. Enjoy

**4mula1** · 02-24-2012, 05:54 AM

Nokia Internet Radio works with Belle.

New version of Social is out via Ovi Store which fixes this bug. I can upload to social sites from the picture gallery again.

One great app that I LOVE is Spotify. I was amazed to find out that they even made a symbian version of this app, just because there aren't a great amount of mainstream apps for symbian. Yeah it comes with the price tag of 10 bucks a month but when you use it on the daily like I do then it becomes pennies a day. The one great feature about it is that it syncs the music you choose for it to sync and it works in harmony along with any pc playlists you create and syncs to your phone, you also can make playlist available in offline mode meaning you need no service to play that music because it's stored partially in a cache on your phone, thus you won't always be connected to the internet on your phone using "precious" data, haha. Anyways I just really enjoy the app and think everyone should know of it.

If you want to continue with Anna, and you want to address your problems, do a hard reset. I had similar issues with Anna, and after a hard reset all updates installed without error, and overall phone performance (including battery life) was improved.

Otherwise, as ROKstrr suggested, do the same before updating to Belle.

Well, will give it a try today and see what happens. Just hate to loose everything in phone even with backup.
