Ever since the launch of the Symbian^3 OS, users seemed to have lost hope of newer updates to their older devices. Nokia’s recent actions however show concern towards its previous phones. The company has released an update to all Nokia handsets running the Symbian3.2 and 5.0 firmware.

Phones running on s60 v3 and s60 v5 editions were thought to be outdated as the team seemed to focused more on their newer smartphones. The company stated that its software engineers have been working hard to improve their devices by fixing bugs and other errors. The new update includes a faster web browser namely ‘Nokia browser v7.3’ also available in the Symbian Anna OS. The application will contain International Domain Names (IDNs) and also support to non-ASCII letters such as Chinese or Arabic.

As per Nokia conversations, a newer version of Maps will be accompanied with updated capabilities. Ovi Maps 3 SR4 for Symbian 3.2 will have an indoor positioning through Wi-Fi as well as travel and recommendation services similar to those on Lonely Planet. Ovi Maps 3 SR6 will come with public transportation lines and check-in services to social networking sites. The company has finally integrated a feature which was never seen before on Symbian devices, allowing users to send emotions via text messages and MMS.

The devices listed in this update include Symbian 3.2 phones such as Nokia E72, E52, E5, C5-00, 6670 slide and Symbian 5.0 handsets like Nokia C6-00,C5-03, 5230, 5235, X6, N97 mini, 5800 XpressMusic and 5530 XpressMusic. Updates for the C6-00 and 5230 are released while the remaining will be available over time.
