    Canadian Nokia N8-00 Unlocked

    I reluctantly purchased an iPhone 4S a few months ago even though I really liked my Nokia N8. The main reason is that I really needed a couple of apps that were available for iPhone/iPad but not for the N8.

    I've kept my N8 hoping that with Belle it would still be a good spare and occasional main phone. I even clipped my original SIM and purchased an adapter so I can swap the same SIM between the two phones.

    Now I find that Nokia are not going to release Belle for my never-locked Canadian N8. I've no desire to learn how to use the other ways possible to install Belle on a Canadian N8 as my main phone is now an iPhone.

    Anyone want to buy a Canadian unlocked N8 along with its standard accessories and other accessories I purchased for it? I have no idea how much to ask for it nor how to SAFELY go about selling it. (I would give a special deal on it to anyone living in Québec City who wants to buy it for cash. )

    I have an unlocked N8 I bought from Newegg.ca last spring. It has the product code 059D0V2 and I was able to update it to Belle with no problem.

    I also purchased my N8 from Newegg.ca

    The product code of my N8 is 059C8T6.

    How did you go about updating to Belle?

    The "no update" looks to be for the specific branded Rogers N8.
    It looks like you both have US NAM product code N8's which can be updated. Nokia Suite 3.3.86 should be used. Formatting mass memory is helping some with issues.

    Yes, I just updated my Nokia Suite and connected the phone and it showed the update. I have a Roger sim card in it for Paygo and the update kept all my Rogers connection settings and I've had no problems.

    I'd look into buying it from you if you still don't want it. I'm in Montreal this week.
