However &#8211; the new wizard itself is fairly descriptive.\n<\/p>\n<p>The new Update Wizard for Windows was a disappointment. While it has some cool screens and clear instructions, it wouldn&#8217;t actually flash the device for me. A slight problem! And yes, you have to connect the 770 directly into your computer&#8217;s USB- hooking it up to any type of hub results in the wizard not even detecting it.\n<\/p>\n<p align=center>\n<img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/dillernet.com\/apple\/wp-content\/images\/770_wizard1.jpg?resize=400%2C257&#038;ssl=1\" border=\"0\" height=\"257\" width=\"400\" alt=\"770_wizard1.jpg\" align=\"none\" \/><\/p>\n<p align=center>\n<img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/dillernet.com\/apple\/wp-content\/images\/770_wizard2.jpg?resize=400%2C257&#038;ssl=1\" border=\"0\" height=\"257\" width=\"400\" alt=\"770_wizard2.jpg\" align=\"none\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Screen shots of the new Flashing Wizard.<\/p>\n<p align=center>\n<img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/dillernet.com\/apple\/wp-content\/images\/770_wizard3.jpg?resize=500%2C322&#038;ssl=1\" border=\"0\" height=\"322\" width=\"500\" alt=\"770_wizard3.jpg\" align=\"none\" \/><\/p>\n<p>This is where the Wizard got stuck with me- I had to kill the wizard in Windows as it would soon stop &#8216;responding&#8217; to Windows. I tried it 5 times and finally gave up and went for the CLI flashing utiliy on my Macintosh. That worked.<\/p>\n<p><b>Flashing CLI<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Below is the output for my flash&#8230; you use the -F for filename, -f for flash and -R to reboot the device after its done.

It restored the data and rebooted my device. Now I have all my RSS feeds and Bookmarks back. One other nice thing with the backup- you can choose not to save your email data (i.e. messages) but it still backs up your account settings.<\/p>\n<p><b>Warning<\/b>: you will lose all your 3rd party apps that you&#8217;ve installed, so be ready to re-install them or find a way to back them up. And speaking of that, on IRC this morning <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bleb.org\/software\/770\/#sync\">I see that Jaffa at Bleb has released a new utility<\/a> (in the form of a makefile) that he says can help backup and restore these 3rd party apps across firmware updates. It&#8217;s too late for me (although I&#8217;ve kept all my app installers ready to push back over) but I&#8217;d like to see if there isn&#8217;t a way to install them via the CLI rather than the GUI.<\/p>\n<p><b>So what&#8217;s it like?<\/b><\/p>\n<p>So far, it&#8217;s not terribly much more than .45 I&#8217;m afraid.\n<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The email app shows nothing different (it still has its bad UI and is slow as balls)\n<\/li>\n<li>The over all system is not noticeably faster (I&#8217;m redoing my swap to speed it up)\n<\/li>\n<li>The Newsreader now fails to even load with my feeds\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>So I&#8217;m guessing this was a minor, under the hood tweaks kind of update. Nothing major seems to have been addressed. Nothing dramatic regarding speed, which I was hoping for. At least I&#8217;ve gone thru a firmware update now. Once I sort out the backup and restore of 3rd party apps I&#8217;ll be ready for the next one.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Nokia team has released the .51 (apparently that refers to the week the update was released) update on their European site.
