Hi,
Yesterday or so I read on the net HTC europe released a new rom. But when I try to update my Legens says there is no update available for my device. I tried with both 3g and wifi on as I read somewhere that could make a difference.
I used a goldcard to unbrand my vodafone legend but the last OTA update worked fine so I assume this cant be a problem now? (as far as I can see my Legend is totally stock).
Are there more people having this problem or now how to fix it?
I got an ota popup yesterday, downloaded and installed the update, and since then the phone has been restarting randomly all the time (no other difference that I've noticed so far), so I wouldn't be in a hurry to update if I were you
Update working for me..
I got the OTA update as well yesterday. Updated succesfully, legend works without problems.
I tried to update with my rooted phone, but the update stops after a while and an image of a phone with a question mark is shown.. Then the phone reboots like nothing happened.. Anyone else has this problem?
yeh it had the phone with the question mark and then it shows the phone without a question mark. i downloaded the update and installed it but when i checked the software info its still 1.405.4. my phone is rooted too
Same here, question mark ... no way to upgrade... we need Help from Paul
I gather these firmware updates are not documented anywhere what they fix?
My phone currently updating to version 7008 - needs update to Zune too which is downloading first.
Was on 7004.
Will let you know what happens!
I can't see any changes...
Also no saving of the changes you make in Camera or so on...
Is this the update before March Update!?
Yeah, this is just an update to pave the way for future updates. You'll find nothing new here.

Is the Camera any better...? could be into the realms of imagination here but took a photo and it seemed clearer than previous efforts on standard settings. Phone also 'seems' a little zippier.
Not totally sure so guess things aren't that different.
Backup worked nicely though.
Mine is in the process of updating. The backup process takes a while.
I wonder if we can use someone elses backup to restore a phone? I only ask because I flashed my UK T-Mobile device with the unbranded Samsung one because it was said that it fixed Bluetooth problems. However, it has had no effect, and now I can't take my phone back to T-Mo because it's not running the original firmware. If I can get it back to UK spec, then I can take it back to a shop and swap it for a (hopefully) working one...
Done. It is only a preparatory update for the actual update containing copy and paste, improvements to Windows Phone Marketplace et.al. Ergo, it doesn't contain any new functionality and won't remove or hinder any installed jailbreak functionality.
Yup, more playing, definitely no changes I can find...camera taking a better photo just happened to be a picture in better light.
This update has bricked my Omnia 7.
When I connected my Omnia 7 to Zune today, I was notified of an update. Zune updated itself and quit. I restarted Zune and it informed me there was an update for my phone. I clicked update now and it got to step 6/10 rebooting phone. The phone evenually rebooted and Zune reported the following:
RESTORATION ERROR
An error prevented the restoration of your phone to its previous version. Your phone cant be used in its present condition and there are no restore points for it on this computer. Thephone might restart and return to normal if you disconnect it. For further assistance, contact your mobile operator.
ERROR CODE C101002E
Thanks Microsoft, that's a really helpful message. NOT.
I have manually updated to the latest Zune, rebooted my PC, rebooted my phone, and I get the same thing every time.
THIS IS NOT GOOD ENOUGH MICROSOFT. My Omnia 7 is now a brick.

Sorry for that. I was afraid of this happening to me when the update stalled at the 7th step

Sorry about that. I was afraid of this happening to me, after the update stalled for an hour at the 7th step, so I disconnected. Luckily nothing happened to my device. But apparently several Omnia 7 are experiencing this.
Sort it out, MS.
First things first. I was updated Zune to the recent version, because I was curious it will resolve a problem with login user on one of my computers. One (Windows Vista) works fine, but another one, Windows 7 (both 32-bits versions) works fine with Zune + Market.

I've done the same. I have (branded) T-Mobile UK phone and decided update to unbranded one. I choose version I8700XENJK1 (but I tried another one before) - for me, one difference is language Dutch / Belgium if I remember correctly.
I've read this thread and I was wondering if my phone will find update... I had no information about this.
I return home, connect Omnia to computer and update process start immediately. I had no problem with update at all. Phone during update reboots twice (or more) and it looks stable. I haven't noticed any changes or improvements... maybe it's working a little bit faster, but maybe it's a auto-suggestion.

Help !!!!!
Have you got samsung tools installed?
I have tried twice to install the update. Both times I got stuck at 7 or of 100 with 100%.
The only thing I have done my phone is to unlock it with chevron.
Altough I did have it in flight mode at the time to prevent relocking.
Do you think that would have affected anything?
Still nothing showing up for me yet. Those who got the mini update does your 3 button combo into download mode now work if you had a phone that didnt let it happen before?

Three button combo now gives me the rather scary option to Format or Cancel. I thought Cancel would be the way to go....
Successful Updaters: Please post your Firmware revisions
For those who have managed to get the update installed without error, can you please post here your firmware revisions. We may be able to work out which models are affected by the issue.
There are rumours that this update only affects firmware versions JI9 and JJ4 while the JK1 firmware is unaffected.

How can I check which firmware revision I am using?
After updating my Omnia 7 to Nodo I got another update notification about a "Samsung Update".
When I try to install it it hangs at step 6 of 10: rebooting your phone (the phone shows the omnia logo but doesn't boot).
Was anybody able to install this update? What does it do?
You say you updated to NoDo...how? Did you receive a notification or use one of the tricks to get the update? Not had anything myself. Also how long after the NoDo update did you get the other update, was it via Zune or a phone notification.
Sounds interesting given the odd display I've now got, wondering if we have some updated drivers on the way.

I forced the update (via Hungary) but got the new notification as soon as I connected the phone to Zune (it also shows up on the phone).
There is a 'more information' link on the first page but sadly it does not give more information.
Getting the same update after NoDo. Doesn't update though, stuck at rebooting just like you. Weird..
Didn't get my update via Hungary BTW, just the regular way (A1 branded).
Hmmm this is worrying. I assume there were no problems after this update failed?

No, I don't think anything happened yet. The PC is waiting for the phone to reboot, and the phone is stuck on boot..
How long did you leave it?
Not sure, 30-45 mins maybe the first time. The second time I tried just a couple of minutes. It said the update would take 32 mins, but since it just said rebooting and not updating I reckoned the process hadn't even started yet.

You just unplugged it then and it carried on workig OK?
That sounds about right, when i did pre-nodo the reboot took about a minute or so of displaying the Omnia logo then went to the pc plug screen whilst it updated.
I did read about device specific updates, seems odd though as some people are saying that they updated to NoDo and it works fine and had no future updates.

Unplugged it and had to take the battery out to reboot. Notice how it says 'Samsung update for Windows Phone' though. I'll try one more time. My phone bugged me a couple of times about the update as well ('An Update is available').
I wonder if this is a firmware update?
Edit - Looks like it is http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=12516155&postcount=56
Yeah, guessed so. Still not working for me though. Waited for about an hour for it to reboot.
My mistake - Edited
Can i know which firmware version do you have on your Omnia 7? I got a JK1 and i haven't recieved this kind of update
PS
To view firmware version go in phone then open the numeric pad and call ##634# to enter diagnosis then type these combination: *#1234#
For me:
PDA: ends with JID
Phone: ends with JIC
CSC: ends with JID
Curious to see what Cheekbone has as its trying to update it
All end with JJ6
Well I guess the majority is already on JK1, so the samsung update only pops up for some.
It would be great if there would be further samsung firmware updates before major MSFT ones.
It does seem that JK1 is the norm. I guess it means I will be offered the further update...
Worrying!
Hey mine says

JID
is this old? Is there any point to updating the firmware? Zune gives me no update. but i have been wondering about my FW Version for some time.
Any help is appreciated.

Have you updated to Pre-NoDo (.7008) or NoDo (.7390) ?
I have a HD2 running wp7 7392. Really want to get mango. Have tried to force (phone airplan mode, laptop wifi off, plug and unplug ethernet cable). I have tried for 3 days and I have done this maybe 200 times. If I pull too quickly,
within a second, I get connection error. If too slow, 2 or 3 sec, I get "your phone is up to date" And I have tried every ms in between but never was able to get the upgrade! Does anyone else have this problem? Do I have to push deviceprovisioning.cab? I did not have to push this cab and was able to get 7008, then 7392 all through zune. But this time I just cant force. Also looking at the microsoft site, t-mobile phone are already in delivery phase! Drive me nuts! Any advise?
Let's see if I got it right you're on NODO with back to the future v2 and waiting for the official mango update?
Then the solution is quite simple: READ the rom thread! It's in the second or third post...
Anyway, here's the solution:
If you can wait for the official update (it's not out yet!), wait
If not (very likely!!), you've got to send deviceprovisioning.cab to get developer updates and then: just continue updating with zune and it should work just fine...
(or you can use the update cabs provide by xbmod...)
But however you're going to do this, read the rom thread. It's better for you, for your phone (much safer!!!)
upate: I can't wait any longer, so I pushed the deviceprovisioning.cab onto the phone. Right away, zune tells me that there is an update available (7403).
I am in the middle of the 7403. Looks hopeful. Just want to update so other who are stuck at the same place could benefit.
HD2 stuck at 7403, fix!
Hi All! Since august 15th 2012 my HD2 has been stuck at WP7 7403. Tried the force Mango trick very often, but didn't succeed. Very frustrating.
I found my solution in this topic, thank you chabun!
With WP7 Cab Sender I send Deviceprovisioning.cab wich I found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=20696473&postcount=4498
After sending Deviceprovisioning.cab Zune showed an update (7720) wich I am installing right now. XDA did it again for me, tnx folks!
Seems there's a new kies update in town that launched today.
And what?
Do I get cookies when I install it?
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA
It's just a way for Samsung to remind you that they don't have your ICS update.
Any Links please,mine keep updating but never finish it the damn thing

Having the same issue
where is linkd DUS?
New update for Kies and again the same issues. After installation the software is unable to detect the phone, although Windows do. I really don't want to blame developers inside Samsung, but it seems to me, that they don't pay much attention for this software.
underline: Kies seems to be the only software I know, that can't use the Windows 7 resize feature (windows key + any arrow). This is really ridiculous considering fact, that Win 7 are on the market for more than year.
So guys good luck, while updating
Yesterday when I opened Kies, it shows there is one update. I tried to upgrade with Kies itself. But failed. so I downloaded it from Samsung website and installed it, automatically it uninstalled my previous version. But now I'm facing a problem. Kies is not starting. One time it started, and shown windows encountered an error. until now Kies is not opening, I'm using windows 7.
I tried to uninstall it and re install the old version, but still it is not opening. what to do?
Kies version installed is 2.2.0.12014_18_8
Yep I'm another one
Kies keeps telling me there's an update and downloads and installs it but when it restarts it hasn't actually installed it and guess what there's an update available grrrrr

best option would be to remove kies completely from your system.also remove your samsung drivers from add/remove programs.once you've done that install ccleaner http://www.piriform.com/ccleaner/builds to clean your registry of any remaining bits and bobs.then re-install kies hopefully that should help.
For me the Kies update has done something strange but very useful
Last week I put the UK 3 mobile version of ICS onto my unbranded GS2 and before the Kies update I got the usual message that firmware cannot be updated via Kies.
Now, with this updated Kies it's happy to check the firmware of my GS2 (Telling me I'm on the latest version), even though I'm using a different brand of firmware than was originally on the phone (Was XEU, now H3G)
H
Same pb here, keeping update without any sucess
Reinstalled drivers via Kies, rebooted PC and it is worse than before...
So whenever ICS rolls out (said to be in few days), I will be maybe unable to update.... great

This software is crap.
Keys Update ver 2.3.0.12035_16 date 5th Apr 2012
Kies tried to update and then once again. First time it did not update. And it started again. And once again! But it stayed back with 2.1.11124_17. Wondering where the downloads went! Please let me know if Kies update to ver 2.3.0.12035_16 worked with anyone.
