I had succesfully udpated my Nokia 6120c using Nokia Software Updater. This method is not a problem when we have a broadband internet connection. I found many people failed to update their mobile phone’s firmware in online mode.

I heard that there’s an interesting way to update in offline mode by using Nokia Care Suite. I have also downloaded this application and have it installed on my PC, but there’s something annoyed; we should find our firmware files and I couldn’t find where to download it.

I had a bad experience updating in online mode using Nokia Software Updater, I couldn’t help waiting until the update process completed. You could imagine I left my notebook connected to the internet while I was sleeping :)

I don’t intend people not to update their firmware because it’s recommended to get our mobile phone updated when there’s available firmware update.

There’s an easy way to do updating firmware and we don’t need to waste our time for waiting Nokia Software Updater completes the update by simply doing it directly on our mobile phone.

Caution: Backup all of your data to your memory card before doing the update and make sure your battery is fully charged.

Go to your Nokia 6120c main menu and choose Settings > Data mgr > Device mgr.

Nokia 6120c Firmware Update

Check the availability of your mobile phone’s firmware by selecting ‘Options’ > ‘Check for updates’. Wait for the search completed and you will be confirmed to start the update.

During the update process, your phone will be restarted, don’t be panic and please be patient to wait until the update finished as showing on the progress bar.

After it finished, the phone will be restarted again and you can use your phone with a new firmware. Don’t forget to check it by typing *#0000# on stand by mode. You can see what new features are available on this version 6.01 here.

Good luck :)
