Flash IC is a form of rewritable static memory silicon chip, much like any rewritable media. You can write and erase several thousand times. Depending on what phone you wish to upgrade the firmware, you will need different tools, like Tornado, Griffin, etc. To flash a phone's firmware you will need the latest Firmware from Nokia, then use the flasher to upload the software to your phone. dna_ksh 12th August 2004, 07:24 does flashin ur phone void the warranty? udha 15th August 2004, 17:26 Some case is not void the warranty, or you can upgrade phones in vendor phone if you afraid to change the version of phones.
