Now a days we all do software/firmware updates of our Nokia Phones at home on our PCs itself instead of taking them to Customer Service. Now as many windows users have upgraded to Windows 8, the Nokia Software Update wont work anymore with this new operating system.
Hence, in order to update firmware of your Nokia Lumia and all other Nokia devices on windows 8, you will need to install Nokia Suite which is 100% compatible with this system. With this suite you will be able to update your phone’s firmware as well as copy your contacts, calendar and photos from existing Nokia phone to Microsoft SkyDrive service as well.
