SYARMWAWA/SANJAY/UPAKULROX hi,

I have a nokia C7 phone and I want to down grade BELLE back to its original software ANNA. your tutorial is nice how ever you should have posted some specific step by step screen shots on how to downgrade and flash out the BELLE in order to return back to ANNA. I have downloaded all the necessary firmwares and requirements you have posted and my problem is how to start it right. In addition to that, I have some questions that may be you can answer or guide me in clearly,

1. Before doing step 1, do I have to connect my phone first?
2. You required to phoenix software's to flash out belle, SW versions 2010 and 2011, however, there is a new post in this forum about a new version of the software which is a 2012 version, is it ok if I use the 2012 version instead of the 2011 version?
3. where can I download a normal version of phoenix cause the link you provided are cracked versions?

I hope you can help on this matter and can provide a detailed step by step tutorial. Thank you

This video may help you
http://youtu.be/7mH7dd2ohuc

I am a newbie and followed the written as well as the video to downgrade E6 Belle (v111.140) to Anna (v21.14). After step 3 (succesfull) my screen was still black. Next step 4, and now the pc (and thus Phoenix) does not recognize my phone. It looks if there is no USB connection at all. Tested with a working E6 (nothing flashed or what so ever). PC (and USB cable) are just working fine.

Please advise, because I think I have a very expensive brick at my desk  :(

1.Flashing ur C7 with RM-596 version 25.007(N8 firmware)[use Phoenix Service Software 2010][use update software button]Once done your phone will be bricked. DO NOT PANIC
2.Flashing ur C7 with RM-596 version 11.005(N8 firmware)[use Phoenix Service Software 2010][use refurbish button]Once the flash is finished your pc should recognize your phone(some drivers will be installed but the phone's screen will be off)

Any help? Comment below
In step two, will Dead USB be necessary to flash?

Did you get it back up and running?
Dead flash using Software reset with OFW should do it.

Step-by-step with screenshots by luis12luis is here: http://forum.dailymobile.net/index.php?topic=60902.0
Watch the video because the steps listed are not complete. You have to manually change your phone's PHONET driver to the N8's in Windows Hardware Manager before you begin. He does not mention it, but after the final flash you have to uninstall your device in the Hardware Manager and let it be automatically installed in order for it to work properly again.

Dead flash is necessary at each step.
My experience on E6:
Flash 1: Phoenix 2010 > Dead USB > RM-596 v25.007 Update Software > Totally bricked.
Flash 2: Phoenix 2010 > Dead USB > RM-596 v11.005 Software Reset > Still totally bricked.
Flash 3: Phoenix 2011 > Dead USB > RM-609 v21.014 Refurbish > Flash "fails" but phone boots and works fine...
Flash 4: Phoenix 2011 > Dead USB > RM-609 v25.007 Software reset > Again, flash "fails" but phone starts right up and seems to be without issue.
i have no interest in doing this again... EVER... But so far i am happy trying Anna on a live E6  :)
CFW, of course  :D

Deposit files is the only one that works. You have to click several times.

i successfully downgrade my e6 but have some problem
- store (store via pc suite)

-and wirelles
can i fix it?
maybe download all files on anvivirm on 4 step and redo 4 step? or?
please help me
Reflash the last FW files in Dead USB > Software reset. i had the same issue the first time on the E6, but after a second try using Software reset the apps all work. Nokia Suite is even telling me to update to Belle now  :D
i do not think i want to... Not just yet  :P

Go here. Make sure the name of the file you download matches the name of the link - some files have extra numbers and letters in front of the correct file name (eg: 1442FR47_rm-609_025.007_79.92_prd.core.fpsx should be named rm-609_025.007_79.92_prd.core.fpsx)
