How big is that? I know this depends on which Belle release I download but I haven't done this before so don't know which one is best as there are tons of releases out there??? Which do you recommend?

Also can I download my current firmware (Version 022.014, Product code 0599399) in case I want/need to revert back for some reason?

I am using this one I am using Delight Belle 3.5 http://www.multiupload.com/V3ITVMTVSZ. It's 150Mb Yes you can downgrade http://www.nokiausers.net/forum/nokia-n8/41134-how-downgrade-your-n8.html. You will have to download the scandinavian dg 11.5 firmware from Navifirm. Or just wait for the official Belle release and upgrade via Ovi Software Update.
 
Unf. I have veeeery slow internet, ..but here is my method:

1. Download your desired Firmware from Dailymobile Nokia S^3 section (111.030.0607), and then make a folder RM-596 in phoenix under products. Extract the files there.
2. Open Phoenix, do not connect your phone yet. Open settings, remove USB1 connection.
3. Go to File and then click open products and then choose RM-596
4. After that Click Flashing and then click Update Firmware.
5. Click product codes and click the assigned version.
6. Under the same page check Dead Phone USB Flashing.
7. Below the page click option
8. Now you can see 2 files with color red, Delete them, press ok.
9. Now click Refurbish.
10. A firmware update popup will appear with instructions, press ok.
11. Turn your phone off, connect it, at first it will try and charge it, disconnect your phone, wait for it to turn off again, now re-connect, flashing will start automatically the second time you attach it.
12. If the message Programming Succeeded appears.
Wait for a little longer countdown starts from 25-1 will appear
dont let it finish, if you see it starts counting down, disconnect your phone
and press the power button. Thats it.

Sometimes you might have to restart your phone once or twice if it gets stuck at any stage, but after that it's plain-sailing..

P.s. Delight Belle has a different look to it, with transparent widgets and a different digital clock. Other than that it's pretty good.
I'm on the trimmed down version of the T-Mobile-PL Official leak. I have found it to be the most stable, and fastest of the non-custom firmwares. +/-170mb free on C: ...I've tried 111.020.. Delight, Xeon, The One etc..

My internet is pretty slow so won't have the luxury of trying out all the different releases...
arneduppi - you're using Delight & dudewotevr - you're using a version of the T-Mobile-PL Official leak...
Which release do you guys think think is best overall? Do they all work with Opera Mobile? Nokia Maps? Whatsapp? etc...

They're very similar, Delight looks slightly different and has additional stuff installed, head on over to Dailymobile to read up on it and see screenshots.
Opera Mobile (though I actually find the in-built browser to be faster), Maps and weather (weather wasn't working when I was on Delight 3.4, but 3.6 out now, so maybe), whatsapp all working.

Symbian Belle Update for S^3 and Anna Devices Delayed up to Early Next Year - 2012

Nokia Belle is the latest Symbian software release with all-new user interface, improved user experience, and dozens of improved and new features. We have already shipped Nokia 603, 700 and 701 with Belle software this year, and have received great feedback on the new user experience.

We will make Nokia Belle available to consumers globally by rolling out the Belle software for the existing Nokia range of smartphones such as N8, E7, X7, C6-01, C7, Oro, E6, and Nokia 500 in early 2012. With that, millions of consumers around the world will get a totally fresh experience on their Symbian smartphone.

I wouldn't try flashing my phone, too risky. Can't wait for Belle though, it's so much faster. The latest I heard was it will be available from week 4 in 2012, so basically from Feb. Hope they surprise us and release it sooner though.

Flashing.. Eish.. yeah it is risky.. but you know I have done it MANY times, and some have some members on this forum. ANd it's just working perfectly.. The version of Belle that is out now is SO stable.. It's amazing..

But yeah, I understand, I only flashed mine, because there was something wrong with my OS initially.. Otherwise wouldn't have done it..

:D
 
I don't understand you guys, if you can follow a 1-2-3 instruction guide, you can flash your phone. U'd hav to do something monumentally stupid to brick it, hell even bricked phones can be restored by flashing Pr.1. I've flashed mine close to 10 times.. Latest leak has 0 bugs and is buttery smooth.
