If you have a Nokia cell phone you can update your phone yourself without the help of a service technician,You can accomplish this by using a free tool called Phone Software Update

Choose your model online and download the free package that requires your phone is physically plugged in (first time I’ve ever used the cable, thank you Bluetooth) and charging to run. It’s not real clear what’s in the latest firmware, but keeping your gadgets up to date is always a good idea, right? Right? Warning: your phone looks like it’s dying during the 15 minute or so process, but trust the progress bar and press on. It’ll be ok. Oh, and be sure to back up ALL your phone data before proceeding. The Phone Software Update is a free download, Windows only, Nokia phone required

I have succeeded updating software myself 6 times out of 7.

I failed once and my phone is dead. Just need to bring to the Service Centre and they can revive it.

Things to note :

It can take a long time depending on your Internet connection speed

You must not remove the cable during the updating process

You must not answer any calls/sms during the updating process

You must also ensure that your battery is fully charged

I'm sure that this firmware update works great, however, let me tell you a quick firmware update horror story. I once tried to update the firmware on a DVD player that I had on an old Powerbook to make it a cross-regional player. The update did not work properly and I ended up with a DVD player that needed to be replaced. There was no firmware support of course because the update was a hack. Just remember that firmware is the root instruction manual for your hardware device and if anything goes wrong you will likely need to replace the device (or have the pre-installed firmware updated).
