My Nokia N86 is on v20.115 which is the latest Vodafone have authorised
for their phones.

Generic N86 have had v21.xx and now v30.xx.

I cannot get Vodafone to say whether or not they intend looking at
allowing updates. Any ideas?

Download it and apply via USB.

Did occur to me to change the code on the phone to a generic one and use
usual update method from there. Friend however bricked his doing that.
Previously had no problem de-branding my old N95.

Current Nokia PC software seems a bit flakey both on my old XP machine
and on my new windows 7 64 bit one.

Not familiar with Download it and apply by USB. Can you give me some
guidance where to look please. TIA.

Need to install a program called Nokia Download - came on the CD with the
phone, but doubtless you can download the dowload program.
