  2. Nokia C7 firmware updation

    Hi Damodaran,



    So that's it? Emax won't listen, neither will Nokia... What are we supposed to do now?



    @Jimmyireland: i can remove the access points by long press... but the thing is, the destination named "internet" is not visible under "menu/settings/connectivity/settings/destinations/"... and when i try to create a new destination named "internet", it
    says that the name is already under use. I created another destination named "internet1", and added access points under it, but that doesnt make any difference to the main issue, where apps cannot recognize the Wifi... (apps that can access the wifi include
    opera mobile, ebuddy, etc... and those that cannot access wifi are ovi suite, nokia maps, skype, and most of the rest that need internet)... trying to click "change connection" inside apps (where available) does nothing anymore... no response...

    Another issue is the mail program doesnt work

    Cannot Change Destination of Apps

    Hello and welcome to TenForums *Smile

    This feature was not available in the earlier releases of Windows 10 but was introduced with the November update also known as Ver 1511

    What version and build are you using? Check by typing winver in the search box.

    If your system is new it may need to be updated to the latest Windows 10 version and then you will be able to select new App locations.
