When updating software on Mobs, be sure to:
HAVE A FULLY CHARGED BATTERY INSERTED;
PUT IT ON GENERAL PROFILE;
TURN OFF YOUR PIN NUMBER;
CONNECT YOUR CHARGER TO YOUR MOB AND SWITCH IT ON;
DO NOT-----DO NOT---- TOUCH YOUR PHONE WHILE THE UPDATE IS GOING ON;
THIS CAN TAKE 30 MINUTES OR MORE.
And obviously don't unplug the phone from the PC.
Be patient, you may have to do a restart or two on your mob afterwards. Even remove the battery to get it going again. But give it plenty of time.
I did an update on a Sony Eric 810i it took nearly two hours.

Guys... Guys... Chill
Hope This Could Help You on your Problems, because it worked on my Phone.
First... Let Your Battery Drained either on your Phone or other units.
PC-Suite Won't recognize your device.. (I Know That), so what you Have to do is, disconnect your phone connection to your PC or laptop.
Charge your phone using standard wall charger (Always use the original) let it charge for 10mins.
Then connect the phone to yo your pc via USB data cable (it will still Prompt the "USB NOT RECOGNIZE" reconnect it until that prompt is gone.
after that... Run The software update again, at first it will show that no phone is connected. Click the try again button until it offers you to install again the Updated Software...
when that happens... leave the computer and your phone alone until it finish the update....
hope this could help you out Guys....

Hi All!
For phones with black screen and not turning on at all.
Even though your phones look dead, they are not quite dead.
Try this:
1) Take your dead phone
2) Plug it into mains voltage (via charger) and keep it plugged in all the way through
3) Ensure battery is in
4) Connect to PC via USB cable supplied
5) Re-run the "Nokia software updater"
6) It will offer to reinstall the firmware (and most likely will only show 1 firmware that is not fully installed.... the old one is long long gone i.e. was deleted at the start!)
7) Click on reinstall, it will probably will not be able to start it the first time
8) So, reset your phone by the usual "take out battery and then put it back"
9) Do 7.. and 8 if necessary.. untill it finally gets going
10) When it gets going... the happy momemnt... it will take at least 15 minutes to install
11) When the install is done, your PC will say it is done... but phone will be still black
12) Then you do another reset "take out battery and then put it back" and wait
13) You will eventually see a white screen with blue nokia script emerging
14) Then wait another few minutes and it will start to come alive... enter PIN etc.

I've the same problem, the N73 dead and can't be power on again. This happen while I was downloading firmware with USB cable, and the phone power off by itself nobody touch anything. The upgrade process failed, and can't power on the N73 anymore.
This is a standard N73 wihout any mod. What has gone wrong. Pay Nokia for their Software BUG? Damn it.

Nokia Software Updater is Stpid Software , Don't take care if the Software Upgrades fails for any reasons. I don't know whose fault is this , whether the stupid devlopers or the designer of the Software. Its the fault of the Nokia SDLC cycle and we all are the suffers.
As a Embedded Engineer I suggest Nokia to hire some good resources like me :-), who takes cares of all these thing while programming.
