I’m not going to start a big fuss about this and the entire ethical dilemma I have about slapping a new name on the same product just with a different firmware. I did that already with my previous how to for changing a Nokia N73 to a Nokia N73 Music Edition!

Anyway, check out the complete instructions here, with links to all the software one would need to preform this operation! Leave this guy some thanks too, he deserves it for coming up with these nifty hacks.

  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 0539366 (Hong Kong’s language pack: English, Traditional Chinese, Simplified Chinese) or 0539364 (Taiwan’s language pack: English + Traditional Chinese) and mark the case “Enable”.
  6. 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 !).
  7. Close Nemesis Service Suite and run the Nokia Software Update.
  8. Make sure not to touch the cable or the phone while your phone is updating or else you will break it!
  9. That’s it! When you restart your phone, it should now be the Nokia N73 Internet Edition!

Like I said, complete how to is here

    I do take the risk because my phone hangs a lot so I do change the code of my N73 Classic Edition to 0539366 and then i update… and after the difference is here…

    1. Stave & Waveform are in default theme, unlike before only 3 themes in default now they are 5…
    2. Dictionary Application added…
    3. Believe it or not, when i do play a songs the output from the phone’s speaker are more louder and clear
    4. Opening of application from the phone are more faster than before….
    5. Font change, it became more smaller yet still readible.
    6. Unlike in music edition, the media key retain with the personalized shortcut application.

    I do really my N73 now, more faster, updated firmware with better performance….

    Thx a lot for the trick…..
