You see the procedure you did is called [on the air update] that not all phones have, and the 5730zm is supposed to have this feature, but sadly as you mentioned all you are going to get is [no updates available] which is not true.
The best way to make the update:-
1) Install "Nokia PC Suite" on your PC.
2) Install "Nokia Software Updater" on your PC.
3) Back up phone memory on the 8GB SD Card.
4) Remove the 8GB SD Card from the phone.
5) Make sure that the phone is fully charged.
6) Connect the phone to computer via USB Cable.
7) Start "Nokia Software Updater".
8) Follow the steps.

I am both 'Deathunter' and '5730xm Owner', you can check the country code for both IDs and you will see that it is the same, and I still come here on regular bases, but those who I response to, don't bother to response back to me, so what is the point of wasting my time if those who ask the questions don't come back to see the answers (o_O)?!
You are right Fring is not that good for this, any way, there is a better one that was called GIZMO, and now it is called 'Vyke' and it provide what you want (Calling through WiFi), so just google 'Vyke' to get more details.
Important Applications for 5730xm:-
01) NetQin Mobile Antivirus (Effective Antivirus)
02) NetQin Assistant (Well give you something like the PC start menu in your phone)
03) Speedy Go! (Supposed to accelerate your phone)
04) FreeSigner (Can be used to sign applications 'you must have key and certificate')
05) MobiGenie (Friendly unwanted calls blocker)
06) CorePlayer or SmartMovie (Play avi format movies on your phone)
07) FontRouter (Change your phone font style)
08) MobyExplorer (Access your phone system files)
09) BlueFTP (Send sis and jar files via bluetooth)
10) ScreenSnap or Supershot (Take screen snapshots)
11) TaskMan (Enhanced task manager)
12) RingtoneMaker (Cut full-songs to make ringtones)
13) PhoneInfo (Show all what you need to know about your phone)
14) PicoDrive (Play SEGA games on your phone)
15) Ovi Contacts (Nokia service that is similar to BB service)
And there are much more usefull applications for the 5730xm, but those that I mentioned are the most imporatant.

My friend you don't have to get used it, as it is already mentioned in here by several people who have the 5730 that a simple firmware update can fix this problem, so if you don't know how to do the update, let me know and I tell you the procedure.
it would be great if you guys could post a list of your favorite apps for this phone...apart from opera mini and opera mobile...they are absolutely a must...but i am certain that there a lot more apps to exploit the potential of this phone...
Also, i am particularly interested to know how to use the VOIP with this and some light on SIP...i have installed fring but havent been able to make VOIP calls thru wifi...i need to make calls to people in other countries....i am loving this phone and would be really grateful if someone could help me with these issues...
P.S. i am witnessing a decline in the no. of posts by the early supporters of this device, namely 'deathunter' and '5730 xm user 'to name a few. It would be great if they could come out one last time and share their expertise.
this is the best mobile i have used..this mobile has got every thing i want....the QWERTY keypad is really great i use my mobile for surfing n chatting very much this keypad helps me alot..and screen is also big enough to play games..it also has n-gage gaming button which is plus point...i hve also signed some applications like..opera mini, nimbuzz, advance device lock, smart movie any more...these applications make my mobile complete....and battery level is also good...after using atlest 3 hrs a day for surfing and chatting and listening to music last for 3 days ... I will give 9.5 out of 10...
undoubtedly, the best phone ever created...
(for non-touchscreen phone users)
I've been using this mobile for 2months now.. and i'm still loving it... i mean the appearance of the phone never runs out of charm... it still looks like i've bought it yesterday.. no fades in the keypad nor the D-pad. The qwerty keys are comfortable to use (when you are used to it - maybe after a week or two). The web surfing is zippy.. image quality is quite decent compared to other phones.. Symbian OS is still, for me, the best and most mature OS for mobile phones.. tons of applications can be installed because of the bundled 8gig.. i also used the 8gb mem card to save bunch of full 3gp and wmv format movies... Ngage games' graphics is delightful to the eyes and you actually get to have a free activation code (to activate a Ngage game) included in the retail package.. in terms of music, well i'm really satisfied when im using my earphones.. (the music playback isn't that loud when you use the loudspeaker though)...
Some minor/tolerable problems:
- sometimes it restarts by itself especially when you use too many applications all at the same time (369mhz processor only)
- it has poor battery life... (1 and a half day with normal use; less than a day with supreme heavy use)
over all... im loving this phone... 9/10

Nokia already solved that problem through firmware update but still some other issue like poor camera quality, backlight problem, etc. are still occur. - AEY
