The Nokia E5 gets a Minor Firmware update to version 42.012

   

 

The Nokia E5 has apparently gotten a minor firmware update to v42.012 today. It’s previous firmware version was V42.010. Apparently this update removes the Files on Ovi service (which was discontinued a while ago) among other minor things.

The E5 does have UDP (User Data Preservation), so while its always a good idea to backup all your data before the firmware update, none of your programs or data should be affected with the update.

Remember you can update using the E5’s OTA (Over-The-Air) feature, or if you prefer you can download Nokia’s Software Updater application to update your E72 on your windows PC.

If there’s no new firmware detected for your device yet, it might be because it hasnt reached your region product code yet, or maybe your device is carrier branded. It should roll out to all product codes eventually though.

The changelog (via a2phone) includes:
