Mine didn't show the update, I had to keep restarting Nokia Suite 3.3.86 and checking, eventually it showed the update. Keep trying.

Q: What does "Nokia Belle is available in a few weeks for Nokia 500" mean exactly.
A: As usually we don’t comment on timelines, but your phone will notify you once the update is available (just switch on the software update autocheck in your software update app).
well, that might be their answer to our question..... i hope by this saturday or next week, i will get the update for belle!!!

I have noticed that:
When checking for updates (on phone's Software Update) with the phone Language set to English, the Belle update appears on the list.
After changing the phone language to Portuguese-Brazil, the Software update fails to retrive the update and asks to try again later.
A similar situation occurs on Nokia Suite:
When using Nokia Suite installed with language English-US, it tells me that my phone is not compatible with the available software.
Removed Nokia Suite EN-US and installed again but with Portuguese-Brazil language, then Nokia Suite fails to retrieve updates' information (Service not available error message).
So, I'd like to know if the language from both phone and Nokia Suite software affects the update to Nokia Belle?

Hi,
some more FAQs to address topics in the last couple of posts.
Q: I get a notification on my phone that the Nokia Belle update is available, but I can’t see it in Nokia Suite. What should I do?
A: Make sure you have the latest version of Nokia Suite, version 3.3.86, installed (you can download it via www.nokia.com/nokiasuite) and press the refresh button in Nokia Suite if it’s not showing automatically.
And we are checking the FM radio case, the "phone not compatible" and the Nigeria Carepoint feedback.
ps: For availability questions please refer to my earlier posts.
BR,
yvonne

skyee - My product code is listed in the list for which belle is available i.e. 0559330, blue N8 india.
My phone shows that the device update is available. however, i can't see the update option while connected to nokia suite. I have the latest version of the suite installed and I infact reinstalled it to get the update.
Please help

059D111 Country Variant North America Ice Blue
Is there something wrong because it will NOT update. Need ANSWERS PLEASE.
I received Belle Update today.
Started Nokia Suite 3.3.86
Started Belle Update
Nokia Suite downloaded the Update
Started and Completed the Backup 100%
But Starts Looping between these 3/4 processes
Preparing to Install Update - Installing Update - USB Connection is Active, You Can now continue with the software installation - Click Next...
Unplug & Re-Plug USB does not work, nor any other suggested methodologies to date.
Please fix. I was eagerly waiting for the N8 Belle Update to give it a new lease on LIFE.
Otherwise, I would already have abandoned Nokia a long long time ago.

Dear rolfsnoff, kindly remove your rose coloured spectacles.
If you read the post by skyee (she's a Nokia employee) on page 2 of this thread you will see, in quite unambiguous terms, that "Nokia Belle not available" means "not ever" for that country. As far as I can tell only Australia, Canada and Israel have been singled out for that kind of treatment.
Given that Nokia customers in those countries have been told to anticipate the wonderful improvements available in Belle, their disappointment and feeling of abandonment is hardly surprising. That some would be angry at being so blatantly misled and lied to is entirely foreseeable, though obviously not to the Nokia management who made this perverse and self-destructive decision. It is an appalling breach of trust for the affected customers, but Nokia just doesn't seem to get it.
Nokia represents on here that posts are read and acted upon. Australian, Canadian and Israeli customers see no evidence of that yet which feeds into the narrative that Nokia is haughty, high-handed and doesn't give a fig for those customers. Nokia's silence and lack of transparency on this issue only serves to exacerbate the feeling in those customers that they've been cheated. In those circumstances, if those customers vote with their feet and wallets, Nokia has, in one fell swoop, effectively trashed its business in those countries. You don't see own goals of this magnitude by allegedly responsible and ethical companies every day.
Nokia's Australian, Canadian and Israeli customers aren't stupid and know when they not wanted.

now i know the answer why 500 will release later.
1. Compare to other s^3/anna phones, 500 just announce together with belle. Means anna phone like e7, x7 and e6 released 1st and have more time testing belle os than 500.
2. 500 doesn't have gpu compare to s^3/annz phone. Because, compare to them, has 680mhz cpu and added, it's slow but more smoother graphics unlike the 500, has 1 ghz but no gpu,
means even updated to belle, it might have a little smooth graphics
3. Last but not the least, since belle was announce last august, 500 was not included on the list for belle because, it's not compatable, even 500 is a S.anna. OR, even if they testing the 500 for belle, it might announce sooner or later that 500 is truelly not compatible for belle. (if that happens, either i still use the 500 or swap to asha 303. I know nokia will never do that...)
so, currently, my 500 works fine a litle bit after updating to 11.033.
1. Browser is improved
2. No auto restart, but sometimes yes, it restart. But it doesn't bother like 5800 before
so there are my opinion bout why 500 release for belle late.
and one thing, even 500 will release belle later next week, im stil happy that 500 is included on the list for belle update......
