I have a Nokia 8310 with software revision 5.06. I know there are later versions that I can have flashed to the phone but I don't know if there is any point in doing so. Is there somewhere I can find out what I gain by upgrading to the various later revisions?

Just out of curiosity have you any idea what the added features are?

V5.11 27-05-02
Support for new type of flash device added.
Updated list of operators

V5.54 31-07-02
Timer T3186 is reset, when camping to the new cell starts
Improvements to SI13 refresh on ext-BCCH
Improvement to camping on PCCCH; now possible to camp on cell after PSI1 and PSI2 are received. Earlier PSI1, PSI2 and PSI3 were all needed
RAC_valid invalidated after every detach (local or procedure)
Improvement to MS functionality: in NW, which continuously rejects the TBF establishment by sending immediate assignment reject
Improvement to cell reselection in case where C2 parameters are used for cell prioritisation
When MS lost coverage and returns service in a new RA and network mode of operation is I, then RAU is performed with update type combined RA/LA updating. If RA is not changed then update type is combined RA/LA updating with IMSI
Total PLMN search timer value is optimised for every used band combination.
Pending or suspended PLMN search is started, if own SI search is ongoing during TBF release.
Improvement to SI search in case where SI13 is received with changed BCCH_CHANGE_MARK.
Improvement to cell reselection in case where reselection reason is abnormal cell reselection.
Attempt counter for unresponded attach request, detach request and routing area update request was increased after every request. Now attempt counter is increased after 5 requests.
Improvements to RAU procedure in case where NM0 changes from NM02 to NM01.
Improvement in own SI search clearing when target cell reading is started in TBF mode.
Improvement in reception of too many erroneous PSI blocks.
Optimisation to 900->1800 cell reselection time.
Direct hopping improvement: The length of the reassembled block is correctly updated to the actual output block length field, which is used in decoding of the message.
Improvement in PFI value handling in Packet Resource Request
Pending channel configuration optimised neighbour SYNC or PSW measurement during TBF causing long cell reselection time.
Improvements in Early Classmark sending in PCCCH
Improvements in handling the rejection cause #15 "No suitable cells in LA"
Improvements in timing offset threshold for early SCH measurement in a PDTCH configuration. Now neighbour synchronisation is not missed in certain situations.
If network transmits a message with incorrect values in non-GPRS cell options IE, then non-GPRS cell options IE is marked as not being present in the message. Implementation changed to cope with incorrect message.
Not able to handle Immediate Assignment if it came in two parts (two-message assignment). Now two message assignments handled correctly
Improvements in handling of the MPH_NEXT_CELL_REQ message in PCCCH cell.
Cell reselection not allowed to perform a barred cell during ongoing DL TBF.
Handling of the combined RAU accepts during MM state "Receive RR Activation Response" improved.
Neighbour measurements are resumed after non-DRX->DRX (PCCCH)
When SMS character coded NITZ or flexible PLMN name had 7 spare bits in the last octet, then the name length was calculated 1 character too long. Therefore in display an extra '@' character was shown when name length was 7, 15, 23, 31 or any other (8 * n - 1) length
TA update procedure changed. Latest sent TAI info is reused now as long as it is valid even if we get new values for the other direction. This change avoids gaps in the earlier procedure in receiving continuous TA blocks when taking the new TAI values in use.
When PCCCH is accessed RSSI values are changed so that reselection is triggered. After successful reselection to another cell auto PSI1 -procedure is completed correctly.
With several band combinations maximum PLMN search time is correctly set when e.g. next cell request received during suspended PLMN search. The cell, where SI/PSI13 is received, is supposed to support GPRS. Earlier GPRS support was marked as true only if PBCCH description is present in the SI13.
Improvements for SMS stability
Compact business cards are received as normal SMS
Alarm Clock Indicator at start up improvement. Indicator was sometimes displayed briefly at start up even Alarm Clock was not activated.

SIM lock improvement
Operator list updated:

V5.80
USSD:
Send USSD returns complete response
"*" character is handled correctly in USSD input
SMS:
Erased concatenated SMS's are not shown when new one comes

V6.04
MCU SW version 5.06 or newer must be flashed to all phone before RF tunings can be carried out correctly when using Phoenix version 3.55.00 or newer. Latest Phoenix SW version 04.13.005 and Data Package 14.0 should be used for NHM-7.

Due to changes in RX band filter calibration, it is not possible to tune a phone, which has MCU SW version older than 5.06 with the latest Phoenix SW version.

It is not possible to tune a phone, which has MCU SW version 5.06 or newer, with Phoenix Service SW versions older than 3.55.00

GPRS
Improvement to page mode change handling on PCCCH cell
Handling of GPRS connection mode change during active voice call
Improvement to detach making in when needed mode if all PDP contexts deactivated during RAU
Improvements to SI13 refresh
Improvement to cell reselection using C2 parameters
In NMO I when MS received Attach or RAU Reject with causes 'MSC temporarily not reachable', 'Network failure' or 'Congestion' MM state was incorrectly set as 'NOT_UPDATED'
Handling of reject causes #3 "Illegal MS" and #6 "Illegal ME" changed according to CR420
PCS1900 GPRS uplink power level calculation used gamma_0 value of 33. That was an assumption from rel98 specs and is now corrected to be 36 as stated in rel99 spec 05.08.
Modifications for PH to work correctly if some other SI than SI13 is received in TC=4.
In NMO I when combined Attach/RAU was ongoing and NW did not answer, MO call could be not available for a while.

Improvement to MO-call during LCS measurements
Improvements to handling of long SMSs

Further improvements to weak field functionality
Improvement to functionality in case where Detach and Attach where send in same TBF
Changed SMS memory available reporting to network. Now ME memory is always included
Improved empty SMS handling and to SMS validity check
Improvement to dedicated mode establishment
Incorrect parameter validation in calculation of full PSI schedule cycle resulted in valid parameter values being rejected and to a failed cell reselection. This happened in case PSI_COUNT_HR = 0.
If serving cell became unsuitable because of RLA_P < HCS_THR but C32 value was still higher than for all neighbour cells, cell was not changed
Target cell SI was sometimes read from EXT-BCCH while it should have been read from BCCH and vice versa. This sometimes caused unnecessary delay.
Improvement to case where SIM Toolkit application's SIM refresh changes last registered network and MM restart is requested. After SIM refresh was completed, the phone selected same network where it was registered prior to SIM refresh.
Improvement to Power Off Detach sending during active data transfer
Improvement to flexible operator name indication
Improvement to cell change during data transfer
Improvement to GPRS attach/detach collision handling
Changed page mode handling in case of downlink immediate assignment where IA Rest Octects are not present
