Update: Official firmware update is already up. If not received yet, then you can download it via navifirm. For Indian Dark Gray version, size is 154 mb. I can upload if anyone needs that.
Update: Thanks to @N8ws, we have found a quick video of Nokia N8 running the new firmware, check it at the end of post.
Update: It seems that Nokia has removed this particular firmware from their servers or denied the access. Its showing but not there anymore. Either out for release or access removed.There are some tweets saying that Indian Product code 0599255 got the new firmware, but mine is the same and HAVEN’T got it yet neither Navifirm showing it in product external.
Finally what we all were waiting for and I even reported in my last posts is about to appear anytime soon. Navifirm started showing PR 1.1 as 13.015 firmware version. Though its only scandinavia and still in only quality assurance mode, but it means that PR1.1 is finally coming, may be tomorrow.
“NAVIFIRM is used for downloading Nokia firmware images, obtaining lists of product codes, and finding the right product code for your phone. NAVIFIRM downloads all this straight from Nokia’s servers so you don’t have to wait for people to post data packages and lists of product codes.”
You can download navifirm from here
Note: Who don’t know about it Scandinavia is a region in northern Europe that includes Denmark and two of the Scandinavian Peninsula’s countries, Norway and Sweden, even include Finland and Island as per our prompt reader Hese 🙂
The change log
New features: landscape dialer, search for music, pictures and etc with new split input interface (cool), cached web pages with forward and backword buttons, configuration of view for functions,(grid and list), navigation using address from contact book Bug fixes: WLAN search, the functionality of not saving the message for SMS, keyboard … Touch responsiveness: people should have receive with yesterdays’ update stability and minor improvement in mail setup etc They also seem to have cured the Nokia N8 reset fiasco, but who will try it first?
And if we believe Alex68 from @MyNokiaBlog, who provided this change log, then the official release date is January 21, 2011 at earliest unlikely before it.
For people who missed the download and wanna try it before, here goes the download links
Earlier in morning, we seen the same firmware running on Nokia N8 in one of the screen shot, so its confirmed that its definitely PR1.1.
Downloading the files right now and will update if anything more I get…
So, if we go by size, then the update might be 131 mb to 175 mb, though I am really naive about these firmware things. May be some experts could take a hint out of it.
Update 1: one of the file mentions "Split Screen Qwerty Implementation version 1" at a place. Split Screen QWERTY in PR1.1? It can’t be true. Too good to be true. Also its mentioned only at one place and if split input was coming then it would have been all over. But still…. 😛
Update 2: Another file mentioning 3×11, 4×10, 4×12, half qwerty and custom qwerty. I am really keeping my finger crossed. Alone split screen portrait qwerty can make it biggest update.
Update 3: One of people who dared to flash their N8 with this firmware reporting that there is nothing new visibly in PR1.1 😦
Update 4: Some of the people, who have flashed their Nokia N8 with the new firmware also coming with their words to confirm the fact that its only a performance update rather than being any service or functionality update. Though its mentioned that Web Browser seems improved a little, no UI changes though. Other mentions like Battery, Smoothness etc are usual that also might be perception.
So, there is no portrait QWERTY, Chat, Mail or Social related changes that might be visible on screen. Too early to say, but its disappointing as official words were looking exciting.
Woohooo~~~nice.
U just posted the screenshot…. can u get the details of wat changes they have made…. coz PR1.1 is long due, more than a month now…. n amazingly they launched Apps Update yesterday… so i don’t think PR1.1 is coming 2morrow…. (I hope i’m wrong… want to see my phone running on PR1.1 this weekend)
Trying my best to pull out any info if possible and updating here. Just cant take risk of re-flashing my N8 with this version (files shown in screenshot).
As much I have got info, this one NOT bringing any of big visual updates, but related to performance most. PR1.2 should follow within 10 days of its official release.
Yea true…. N8 is already working great guns for me… don’t want to risk it. as per the info, there won’t be PR1.2 it’ll be PR2.0 (u might be aware 1.1 is minor fixes to performance while 2.0 is the biggie we should be hoping for – expected due date Feb)… n no more Symbian^4… Symbain^3 will be updated as n wen required wid Qt… but then N8 uses Qt framework not built-in Qt…. so looks like we N8 users might miss out something unless PR2.0 gives N8 a built-in Qt…
Symbian^4 UI is PR2.2 and most likely there will be a PR1.2 in end of January or first week of feb
no problem bro , thanks for the mention 🙂
soooooo excited!!! the N8 is already fast and like nitish said PR 1.1 is a performance firmware update. 😀 and with PR 1.2 Symbian will look soooo coool.
Eagerly waiting for it…
Same here…..
Did somebody say split screen QWERTY?
Yup! I smelled something like that in files, trying to confirm it. Hope it come true
OMG!!! Cant wait! 🙂
Just to give a little hint, depending on the definition Finland (and Iceland) are often also included in Scandinavia. We all use the letters å,ä,ö 🙂 not found in e.g. English.
Denmark uses Æ,Ø and Å 🙂
I don’t know if you’ve seen it but Nokia’s split screen became available in the New OVI MAPS that got updated a week maybe two weeks ago you could have a basic look of how they’re going to approach this (the easiest way possible…)
Mine shows only T9. Using the latest one from Beta Labs
search for a place it’ll show the split screens numerical and qwerty, here’s a picture…
and thats the ovi maps version.
v3.06 10wk46b01
Nabkawe,
I was talking about Portrait one mate. Landscape one been there since the start. BTW the approach they are coming with their split screen is much different than this basic one. 😛
Well, sorry for that but even if they made a portrait one they really should designed it better than the landscape one, it’s really annoying even though it takes a huge amount of real estate on the screen hope they leave spaces between the keys it’s been a pain in the **s
till then i’ll keep my fingers crossed.
Btw the way have you guys seen the Nokia #pocketdance Watch it here http://bit.ly/foYEYi This its popular in twitter. if you happen to dropby twitter kindly RT this link.
can you please upload the firmware files.because its no longer available in navifirm.please.
want to try it on my n8. please!
Sure mate. Can do it by night, but its only Scandinavia version.. you can wait till 21 for the official version.. not many days far
Scandinavia version has an english language?
I guess yes
Hey I noticed that there was no UDA package. I am assuming there would some more in UDA package in official release. Still hopping for a little more bits in this update…
PR1.1 was always meant to be a performance update. There might be a few small changes but no feature update that gonna be as PR1.2 will follow within 1-2 week
and???any news about the PR1.1 update….
Nothing available yet in Germany (Provider E-Plus).
Any news?
I think we’ll wait it until february/((((((
Damn…
This is so annoying…
On MyNokiaBlog they say it will be January 24th.
http://mynokiablog.com/2011/01/21/nokia-n8-new-firmware-pr1-1-due-24th-january-2011-pr2-0-february-14th-and-pr3-0-in-summer/
“On MyNokiaBlog they say it will be January 24th.”
it’s beginning to look like a joke
I agree.
Yes I have read that post, I agree too, but still as I mentioned in one of my last post, there are many reasons that they might even skip PR1.1 completely.
As of now, PR1.1 is no sensation as this one was not gonna bring any special goodies inside and people were going to end up bashing it only. Delay could be a little lesser negative PR
This is Nokia Facebook Page http://www.facebook.com/nokiasverige#!/nokiasverige?v=wall
PR 1.1 will be awalable in february. Damn…(((
This is the translate
A new software (PR 1.1) will be available in February. A major update will be done, but the timing of it is still undetermined.
Thanks for the tip mate. Made a post.
guys,if i will flash my n8,and put the Scandinavia version,do i get the english lang,and do i have to install all my apss again,numbers etc..or it will be just Firmware update and all gonna stay as it is in my phone????
cheers
Nokia fails again. Now that’s a surprise……NOT !
Nokia have consistently demonstated that they are not cut out for the smart phone business !
Mate! Current gen of their management paying for the price for a complete revamp
can anyone anserw my Q please….
Multimode 4.00 is best for N8
To Bart: If ur worried about yr data regarding a firmware update, u really don’t have to. I would wait for the official release tho unless u know exactly how to flash yr n8. What generally happens with Nokia is that it’s publicly released where you can download it using ovi suite, and then juust after that, it’s released OTA (over the air) to download directly to yr phone. Generally all yr data is safe, but if u dont want to take any chances, then just do a backup on ovi suite just before the update, then update the n8 and then click restore from backup. Regarding the language of the navifirm update, sorry can’t comment on that as I dont know, will leave that one for someone else 🙂
thanx for that GEORGE…
this is false video,the product code showed in this video only shows the older version..as i checked it on nokia software update downloader…..using this product code n it is old one pr1.0

Yes Adnan, after reading your post, I immediately checked and downloaded the new version mentioned by you.
But I’ve not been able to locate any changes in the phone’s working yet.

Much as I enjoy the band and this first outing, that’s just
far too hit-and-miss a record for something that’s supposed to be so representative of the band’s essence, and such a pinnacle of their legend.
Previous All Tommorow’s Parties curators include Mogwai, Belle and
Sebastian and even ‘The Simpsons’ creator Matt Groening.
Here are some tasteful, albeit unusual music-related costumes that I have been concidering, as I still
don’t know what I will be dressing as this Halloween:
1. North College Hill by the Minor Leagues: Ben Walpole and
his underappreciated indie band reminisce about their Cincinnati roots in their
fourth studio album, rife with pop gems and clever lyrics.
Those curves may have been in the minds of the people who wrote some of the songs featuring girls’ names in their titles.
Whatever it may be, there’s something about indie night that

For, somewhere along the line between the incessant desire of the 1970’s to have one’s ‘lemon squeezed,’ the defensive reassuring of the 1980’s that in spite of all this makeup
and spandex, “we’re still totally manly’also hardcore,” and the disgust
of the early 1990’s that “music used to mean something, man,” by 1996, we
had forgotten how to be kids. Stuart Murdoch: Adorable Belle and Sebastian forman, Stuart Murdoch is a sure favorite in an
indie music crowd.
or the opening bars of The Who’s “Baba O’Riley” are played.
Each year, a guest curator is chosen to host the event and put together
their choice of line up. Previous All Tommorow’s Parties curators include Mogwai, Belle and

Since 1887, many hotels, villas and palaces were built and around 1914 the city was one of the most cosmopolite looking cities in the continent.
“Suki” by Belle and Sebastian: The indie group led by Stuart Murdoch and Stevie Jackson
continue to be an underappreciated gift to meaningful pop music, as evident
in this track. “Cups” by Anna Kendrick: The actress shows off her singing talents on this song from the soundtrack
to the film Pitch Perfect. The Dreamer by Rhett Miller: In spite of
how good the alt-country Old 97s have been for the past 15
years, their lead vocalist often outshines them on his solo albums.
‘s Scott Mc – Caughey, and Tom Smith, the frontman for Editors.
The style and attitude of the band are already firmly in place,
which definitely sets the album among the group’s best,
but Stuart Murdoch’s songwriting has yet to fully mature, resulting
in a few duffers here. The lyrical twist in the chorus subverts expectations,
and shows that Belle and Sebastian have major writing chops.
