Update your Nokia N73 to music edition

By Dusan Belic on Saturday, November 25th, 2006 at 9:11 AM PST In Devices, NSeries, Nokia, Symbian

Nokia N73 Music EditionIt seems that now it is possible to update your Nokia (NYSE: NOK) N73 to the music edition. The procedure is quite simple – change your N73’s product code to 0539343 and then use Nokia Software Updater to update your N73 to the Music Edition firmware.

The updated phone has the well-known Moby tune “In My Heart”, uses joystick controls to play music, and the media key on the phone becomes a one touch access to the music player.

But, be aware as this procedure will invalidate any warranty on your handset.

    thanks just updated my s#$^#T now in south africa with HK code works best thxs

  23. Allister says:

    You need 2 programs: FExplorer and Font Remover (Google!). You also need the font you want to install Should be a .gdr file

    1. First copy the font to the root of your memory card.

    2. Install FEexplorer and Font Remover.

    3. Run Font Remover and get it to find any fonts, when it asks you to reboot, don””t! Exit the program.

    4. Run FExplorer, go to the C drive of your phone and go into c:\system. In there create a folder called “Fonts”. Then copy the new .gdr file into the folder.

    5. Once copied, select Options, Phone, then Restart. All being well the phone will restart with the new font running

    Thanks to logik for the tip :-)

    My current firmware is:
    V3.0713.1.0.2
    05-04-2007
    RM-133
    Nokia N73 (01)
    Anyone know how to upgrade to Music Edition? Any help is much appreciated. Thanks

  30. stinger3133 says:

    Niv,

    i have read from previous posts that since V3.0713.1.0.2 is the latest firmware, we just need to wait for the next update for ME.

    SO MY QUESTION IS, addressed to the guys with the knowledge, WHEN WOULD BE THE NEXT MUSIC EDITION FIRMWARE BE RELEASED? or HOW OFTEN DO THEY RELEASE UPDATES?

    it’s like i’m craving for something that i know i can reach but is just not there yet. grrr!!!

    well, nothing i can do but wait. but i anybody can just give me an idea of how long i should wait, that would be great.

    thanks peeps.

  34. belalmiah says:

    markuzpogi,

    You cant do anything apart from wait. :cry:

    You have the latest version of N73 installed on your phone.
    The N73 ME latest firmware is V3.0705.1.0.31

    There is no way that you can downgrade a firmware.

    Just gotta wait…Hopefully not too long for the new N73 ME firmware.
    Regards.

  35. markuzpogi says:

    belalmiah,

    what if I re-flash my phone to flasher gadget to get the older fimrware of N73, then after re-flashing

    do the process of Update Nokia N73 to music edition…

    anyway thanks for answering my question.

    ok I’ll just wait for the new Firmware.

  36. belalmiah says:

    markuzpogi,

    As far as I know if you try and flash your phone to an older firmware (while having the latest firmware installed). It will kill your phone…. :sad:

    Then you got the hassle of taking the phone to the repair center, they wont be able to fix it so it have to be sent to nokia. Which will take weeks for you to receive it back.

    On the other hand, if you dont have warranty (which I’m sure you have) then your in trouble. Big time. :oops:

    My advice would be to wait….
    Should not be long now for the new firmware.
    Regards.

    I just upgraded my firmware to new version last july 3, and it works pretty fine, thanks for the new update…

    But i dont like what happen on my camera its dark unlike before.

  40. markuzpogi says:

    Hello, First thing to do is to find a product code of N73 Music Ed. listed above and go to nokia software update, and check the product code if there is available firmware update and if there new, download it right to your PC.. after that the Product code you use must be use on the nemesis product code changer then connect now your phone cable to PC and start the updating, you must be fully charge, fast internet connection, and wait, wait, wait, until all be done after that open your phone.. thats all, you have now your phone look like Music Edition features…

    hi all
    wanna big fonts for N73
    ifu have mail me on amitdesai_in@yahoo.com

  42. William says:

    thanks for the tips

  43. Angel says:

    Why would you do that? For now, the original N73 firmware is way better than the ME. Nokia has released several firmware updates for original N73 (not the ME). And where’s the update for ME version? nothing since jan 07.
    The latest firmware is 4.0726.2.0.1 (26-06-07). This new firmware has the same music player as N73ME, plus EXIT button (it’s annoying that i have to install 3rd party apps just to exit Music Player on my N73 ME). And this new firmware already support A2DP! it makes N73 ME look like sh*t.

  44. tamati says:

    :neutral: i changed my n70 to music edition everything worked fine but when i press *#0000# my product code is exactly the same as it was before i changed it??? the product code is v 5.0705.3.0.1 can anybody help me please and also how do i add album art to my music

  45. belalmiah says:

    @tamati

    When you press *#0000# you get the current firmware information that is installed on on your phone. This is NOT the product code. The product code can be found when you remove the battery and has 7 digits (i.e code:1234567)

    Hope that helps. :smile:

  46. tamati says:

    ok thanks. can anybody help me how do you add album art to the n70 me
