How To: Update Original Nokia N73 Firmware to Music Edition
If you already own the Nokia N73, you can update the firmware to the Music Edition by using the Nokia Software Update with a little trick. Retailers are just receiving the Nokia N73 Music Edition as this how-to is published, but you do not have to buy the new Nokia N73 Music Edition to take advantage of the new features. Read on to find out how to update the firmware.
Before you decide to update your Nokia N73 to the Music Edition, know that this may void your warranty and you run the risk of breaking your phone, like Darla. Is it worth taking the risk? Find out first what to expect in the new Nokia N73 Music Edition (screenshots by mukushu):
1. Idle Screen with new clock.
2. New Main Menu Music Icon.
3. New Default Themes.
4. New Music Player with Album Art.
5. Music Player audio settings (Stereo widening is super cool!!!)
6. Music Player Visualization - Oscilloscope
7. Music Player Visualization - Spectrum
8. Firmware Version: 3.0638.0.0.30
Now that you’ve seen how the Nokia N73 Music Edition differs from the standard Nokia N73, do you still want to do it? If so, this is how to update the firmware:
Download and install: Nemesis Service Suite and the latest Nokia Software Update.
- Connect your phone and wait for Windows to install the drivers.
- Open Nemesis Service Suite and click “Scan for new device” on the right-upper part of the window
- Click on the icon “Phone info”
- Click on “Scan”
- Change the product code to 0539343 and mark the case “Enable”.
- 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 !).
- Close Nemesis Service Suite and run the Nokia Software Update.
- Make sure not to touch the cable or the phone while your phone is updating or else you will break it!
- That’s it! When you restart your phone, it should now be the Nokia N73 Music Edition!
You may also want to change for black Nokia N73 faceplate housing to black to make it look more like the real Nokia N73 Music Edition. You can read more about how to change the Nokia N73 faceplate here.

I just want to point out how risky this can be considering the future…
Say that you choose to change the product code to something else and then Nokia later decide to take the current product code away from NSU since they notice many people are changing this code….what will you do then if your phone goes dead?
You can no longer update the phone via NSU and if you turn to a Nokia servicepoint they will notice that your product code in the phone is different compare to the one on the label on the backside of the phone…this means that they most probably will deny to give you service since you have done something with the phone that isn´t allowed.
Next step, by a new phone?!
I would say, very risky…..

Well, I tried it. It works, BUT a word of warning..that product code will turn the phone to english/chinese variant. Those are the only languages supported byt the phone after the update..

Yes, very risky, but people choose to take that risk to take advantage of some cool new features.

Matt on 5 December 2006:
OK did everything above and as it began doing the update it came up saying pdate failed. It downloaded the update then began transfering to the phone and got about 90% of the way and that was it update failed tried several times over and still it stuck at the same point.
Now my phone wont respond. I was give the option to cancel the update (retry or cancel) and retry led to the same result and cancel, still left the phone in the blank screen.
Now i am unable to revive it.
Any suggestions please?

Mark Guim on 8 December 2006:
I think the only way you can revert back from the Music Edition to the Original Edition is by flashing the phone with Phoenix. Since the steps include questionable legalities, I cannot write more about it here. Sorry.

Han, NSS just changes the product code. You need Phoenix to manually flash your phone. It’s more complicated and probably more risky.

Whats wrong ? Any ideas ? Pls help .

Updated my phone after days of deliberation i took the plunge.. and now i have a BRAND new rocking N73 Music Edition.. Thanks for all the help.
After download when update starts you will get a notification that a new cable has been installed then the entire process will take around 10-15 mins during this time you will here the usb connected and disconnected windows sound ignore that… The progress bar will proceed till around 80%.. its all good. Finally around 80% it will get stuck for a few mins donot worry.. then it will say PHONE UPDATED !!
Couple of tips
1) Ensure that your phone is in general profile
2) DONOT touch the phone/cable while update is going on
3) Keep the charger plugged in all the time
4) Take a backup of all the data
5) Do the backup on either on Saturday or Sunday night . This is because in case it becomes a brick u can go down to Mobile repair shop and get it reflashed :).
6) In case the update failed.. KEEP RETRYING..
7) If something is not working properly after the update.. do an update again.
Go ahead enjoy ur new phone

in my case, “starting application” in the NSU goes for a long period of time (15mins and more) like nothing is happening. is this normal??
i lost my patience and took a risk of unplugging my phone, and thank God nothin bad happened.
i also tried to run the NSU without my phone plugged in, and the same crazy thing happened.
just wondrin if there something wrong with the file (NSU) ive downloaded, but it seems that it was installed properly.

Hi there ,
Just been reading all your post’s , and after some heavy thought decied to take the plunge in to the unknown , After getting my n73 four days ago & seeing this guide on how to change to Music edition or Internet Edtion , went ahead and did the firmware update.
All went according to plan and the phone is now a nice shiny internet edition in vanilla ( which i am planning to change , thanks to the gudie that you gave ha ha ).
Well i got to say the only thing i regret is the font that the internet edition has is pooh ! i dont like it at all , is there anyway of changing back to the Standard n73 or getting to fonts changed on the handset , its not that i dont like the Internet Edition its just that the fonts are killing me and i am very happy with how much quicker the handset works.
Would it be a case of changing the handset back to the euro 1 standard code and would this include the updates.
Well again thanks for all the help and will speak to you soon hopefully !
Get back to me guys

Dont try this update if you have heart attack.
{^_^}/
I am one of a thousand people that try to change the regular N73 to N73 ME firmware.
So before start to update i read all the risk & the worth if success carefully.
After knowing what will i do with my New N73 life, i choose to update it in the middle of the night due to local connection best speed just around 45kb.
When the update begin i am shock & feel dizzy to know that till full update need 63.3MB,which mean i nead 5 hours to finnished it with 45kb speed.Don`t want to regret it by pressing cancel or unplug the usb i try to calm down and continued the update with a very hard feeling ofcourse.
That night be my very very very loooong night ever,cant sleep all the night,felt sooooo unwell like people when breaking heart. ^_^ .Try to ease the feeling with my PS3,some comics & DVD movie with hope will felt sleep at least feel sleepy, but it dont work.The feeling going worse when in the 3rd hours of updating time.
So with haste when to living room to check if anything still ok with the update.And Shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit i found my comp self restart cause by short electric with mean the Internet connection also disconected.
Watching that in front of my bed room door i felt all my body paralyze.With unhope,frustating and all complicated complication feeling for a second before i close my body to the computer.
With carefully i pick my phone and check it.
And Woooouwwwwwwwwwwwwww…………Lucky my phone still running like nothing happend.This is the 2nd weeks from the time i try to update my phone and it still run perfectly.
That experience made me love my N73 soooo much cause it not made me to spend more mony for another new mobile & also teach me how to thanks and please with what i had, ^_^

I have good news for all you can change the handset back to the normal vanilla n73 with out any problems at all , looked around at a few sites and found this list of codes , as the fonts really cooked my head that much !
http://www.allaboutsymbian.com/forum/showthread.php?t=53992
Got to be honest much happier now and i am back on my original product code as well all seems fine, the one i selected is the Euro 1 code and then updated.
the thing is that i am a avid fan of surfing the net and the fonts were killing me so much i just had to throw the towel in ! and some more news if you really want the themes for the phone found these links
http://www.megaupload.com/it/?d=0SJX5K02
got to be said that i did not find alot of diffrence in the software that was there and no can take advantage of all of it !
Damn i wish the refinedness of these fonts !

i think many of us have problems because we have the latest ORIGINAL firmware(V 3.0649.0.0.1). From this version, we can’t upgrade to ME, following this guide. Can anybody tell me, what is the latest version of ME firmware? I think, that original is newer, and that’s why it can0t be upgraded. Any idea how to “downgrade” to older ME firmware? With Phoenix?

I was hesitate and scared at first, but the temptation got me to do it last night..After holding my breathe for 10 mins, it was successfully updated to the ME. I’m loving it so far. Just order the OEM nokia N73 ME case too. Thanks Mark and everyone for the input.
