Nokia Music 3.1 firmware update tunes up your Windows Phone
The Nokia Music 3.1 firmware update has been added to the Nokia Collection of Windows Phone Marketplace and is being made available to all Nokia Lumia 900, 800, 710 and 610 owners. We’ve already bagged it on our Nokia Lumia 800, so it’s worth checking to see if you have too!
To give it its full title, the Nokia Music 3.1.80.954 firmware update has started to roll out around the world and we’ve already been lucky enough to get it on our Nokia Lumia 800. It’s essentially a bug fix update. So you won’t see any new features, but you may well find that it’s a little slicker and more robust.

If you find that the Nokia Music 3.1 firmware update doesn’t show up as such in the Download section then here is a neat tip for you, nip into the Nokia Collection and choose the Nokia Music app and see if the update is there.
We tried this with our Nokia Lumia 610 and sure enough, the update was waiting – just hadn’t made it as far as the notification, so we simply downloaded it and there you go!
