Nokiaย X2 is one sweet surprise from Nokia directly dedicated to the fans who wanted Android device manufactured by Nokia. Although priced lower as compared to other manufacturers, the phone doesnโt compromise at the built quality and gives a tough competition to the entry level smartphones flooded by Chinese manufacturers. Now, as with every electronic, things do go wrong sometimes and sadly if some software issue happens with the Nokia X2 you need to reinstall the full factory software or firmware.ย So hereโs a simple tutorial for the Nokia X2ย users who want to re-install their phoneโs software.
Follow the tutorial at your own risk. If any thing happens to your device we are not responsible for it. Before flashing your phone, don;t forget to take backup of your important data as the flashing process will wipe everything.
Steps to: Reinstall Software of Nokia X2
- Download and Install Nokia Software Recovery Tool from here.
- Run Nokia Software Recovery Tool.
- Connect your Nokia X2ย to your PC. ย Make sure it has enough battery left. Then Click Install
- The program will then download update files from the Nokia Servers and prepare them for installation to the phone. (For Nokia X2 the file size is about 900mb.)
- Once the Download is finished, the Files will be Flashed onto the phone. DO NOT disconnect your phone from your PC during this step. If you disconnect your device at this time then your phone won’t boot up. So be careful.
- If the update is successfully finished, the phone will restart.
That’s it! Were you able to re-install software successfully or faced a problem? Let us know in the comments section below ๐
I am using the Product Support Tool to flash the original ROM. I have downloaded the original ROM files, as well. But, the Support Tool is not at all detecting the update package. I am not able to proceed. Please can you help me out?
I desperately want to switch back to the original ROM. I tried a couple of ROMs, but I got the same problem, of RIL being disabled, or I’ll say SIMs not working. I don’t even know if they both are same(RIL & SIM).
I tried a lot of things, but I am not able to get this done. Please help me.
Thanks,
After connecting my phone the software says, “Software package not available for this device.”
what might be the reason
Just that the servers have been migrated and there’s a lot of mess. You’ll be better off contacting B2X for support.
Saif I was installed nokia recocvery tool but it is not catching my nokia x2ds by usb data cable???
Link not working then i tried another link u gave in comments but that software is not showing my device
help! I tried to use the microsoft device recovery tool.. my nokia x2ds cannot be recognized.. tried to restart the phone and go to the flash mode, still no use. what should i do?
I believe you need to use the Nokia Recovery Tool and not the Microsoft one.
Tried to use it, but it seems that the nokia recovery tool cannot connect to the server on installation process. getting errors at installation ๐
Just checked and yes, you are right. There is some broken link within the app. I believe this is because Microsoft is in the process of transferring the data to the B2X servers as Microsoft has officially ended support for the Nokia mobile products.
I guess we’ll have to wait because the files are already moved out from the old servers. Now unless they update the software with new links, it will fail to download.
