  • Did something insane! Just flashed my Nokia 500 with the Country Variant firmware of Switzerland using Phoenix and Navifirm+. Enjoying the awesomeness!

      • It’s good. Specially browsing. Overall experience – like moving from home screens to Menu  is *very* quick. Practically no lag. I like the new theme – Nokia Evolve.

        • Glad to know :)

          Nokia Belle is seriously something better to give a stiff to other platforms such as android or any other mobile OS.
          Nokia shouldn’t have moved from their native Symbian to Windows.
          I believe you got 4 Homescreens in Nokia 500 Belle :)
