Yes, I got an update, from Nokia Store, that has officially been frozen for almost two months now. The fact that Nokia Store still has Symbian updates is really a wonder.

However, the update itself did nothing to my phone.

With this I mean that yes, the checkins do work, but it is still in the "works somehow"-mode. And my update still says "Version 2.0.985" (which is the update from January 2013) even though the update in Nokia Store says the update of today is v2.0.1016.

Does your app show any difference from the earlier version?

Saw on another forum that the same issue has been noticed also there. The Nokia Store says it is v 2.0.1016, but on the program itself it says 2.0.985.

Wonder what they have updated there?

Opera-currently laggy in n8 due to low cpu
Star Browser-Not mature enough like other full featured browser
Opera Mini-See my problem
Web-Slow
UC Browser-Like to make the website look quirky that it doesn't look like website

As I did not understand what kind of update it is, when v2.0.985 updates to "v2.0.1016" but is still v2.0.985 so I asked Foursquare today about it.

What did they reply?

How does it work when one submits/has submitted an app or an update to an app to the Nokia Store? Is it the uploader himself who updates directly or does it go thru someone at Nokia who first checks the update and then approves it?

Just thinking, if it is someone at Foursquare who has mistakenly (re)uploaded an old app (v2.0.985) as opposed to uploading the new version (v2.0.1016) or is it someone @ Nokia who has made the mistake here.

This morning I checked my Nokia-account. There was (again) information about an update which was Foursquare v2.0.1016. I thought issues pertaining to the Feb 18th 2014 update had been resolved but no, after the update (today) the version on my Nokia is still 2.0.985.

Nokia store seems to be able to "sniff" that the version on my Nokia is an older one than the version that the store tries to push for download, but the actual update just somehow does not go through.

How much of this has to do with the Nokia Store freezing the Symbian updates on Jan 1st?

In any case, if there is an update, which is approved by Nokia, then Nokia should also be responsible for that update to work, assuming that it worked when the publisher (in this case Foursquare) uploaded it to the store.

As an another note, there has to be some kind of a special arrangement in this update in any case, since I'd say that there is no way the update had waited for one and a half month for an approval so I'd say that Foursquare (or their representative?) has sent it for approval after Jan 1st, 2014.

Is there anyone that knows anyone @ Nokia (Store) that can be asked -and even more, TO DO something- about this (and to do something does not mean deleting/removing the update)? 

edit: typos and such

I made a query to the finnish Nokia Support earlier today. The reply that I got now from Nokia (in Finnish, the next is my translation) is that "it is apparent that the update is not compatible somehow. We'll take a look"

Looks like they need to get some pumping to get things done.I'm going to send them email and update back.

You emailed them, do they usually reply to emails? Since no-one has done squat for that faulty release. I have tried to search for an appropriate email to send them a request for an update, since this one is not working.
