- Phone software stability improvements; - Improved display brightness and touch screen performance; - Improved phone memory handing; - Correction for the Taipei time zone; - General performance and usability improvements.

The rollout of the update has already been started for Asha 306 (RM-767 and RM-768) in Middle East, Africa, South East Asia and Pacific regions (including India), as well as for some users from Latin Americas.
