Nokia E71 Firmware 110.07.127 and URDU language Problem December 3, 2008

If you live in Pakistan and have recently updated your E71 with new firmware 110.07.127 using Nokia Software Updater then you have fallen a victim of changed Keyboard mapping.
For example (.) period symbol now does not print period(.) it produces (?)question mark, strange!! You will also note that URDU, ARABIC and FARSI language are now replaced with ITALIC, FRENCH etc.
I have looked every where but you can only restore your keyboard language by visiting Nokia Care Center. My advice is not to update to this new firmware.
Closest Solution:
Closest solution I have found to remap my keys to correct ones is to use product code 0566976 instead of 0559577. This code will also restore to phone default language URDU, FARSI and ARABIC, but some keys are still different but you will know where they are.
To change product code you can use NEMESIS or google NOKIA debranding guide.
You can also use Phoenix to change code and upload firmware in one single shot.
I just recently upgraded the firmware on my E71 and my languages include English, Indonesian, Melayu and Chinese. However, my key are the same and not misplaced.
Isnt there a way to change the language and at the same time not misplace the keys?
Thanks.
What language do you want? You try by changing the product code. You can always revert back to your original product code if keys changes. But remember you can not downgrade your firmware.
I’ve actually fallen for the same issue when I upgraded my phone to the new 200.* firmware. I’ve since visited Nokia Care center, and they’re telling me that they’ll give me a new ‘keypad’ which shows the new remapped keys.
But somehow, I am not able to digest that. How’s that going to take care of keys that don’t just work, in this firmware?
hi, i got the E71 from a friend who lives in dubai so the keyboard is both arabic and english.
I was having problems with the phone so today i got it upgraded, in Germany!
I aksed them to do it in English but now im stuck with a german keypad, so when i press question mark it gives me something else and ofcourse the Ys and Xs are not in place (for english keyboard)
How can i switch it back to english? or am i doomed with a german keypad and now need to get a german pad?
Before eight days ago in Riyadh Saudi Arabia I bought on of NOKIA mobile phones (Model: E71-1 Type: RM 346). in the bottom of the package box the phone specification written in six languages (English/French/Italian or Spanish) and (Arabic and tow languages that used the Arabic letters Urdu? Farsi? and maybe Pashto) If I go to the language options I can chose from three languages, it can show menus and write in (Arabic/English/Français) after upgrading the (Nokia PC Suite) to the latest version from NOKIA web site. I upgrade the firmware from version 110.07.127 to 200.21.118 without any problems, it toke abut 1h 14min to download the (103.5 megabyte) firmware upgrade, in my case there is no misplaced characters before or after the upgrade.
My problem was in the communication between the mobile phone and the PC using the Bluetooth I think it was from the USB dongle that I used to communicate with the phone. is there a special USB devise that is used with NOKIA phones? I do not know.
