Got it earlier when I plugged into Zune on Orange UK - It's the pre-NoDo

The February update ? I got that too late last night

Yep the Feb update. I am guessing this means Orange have given the go ahead and NoDo should start appearing in the next few days.

Rogers X10a can now be updated to R2BA020 using SEUS

Good news everyone,
People who have the Rogers X10a can now be updated using SEUS.
1. Download SEUS:
http://www.sonyericsson.com/cws/download/1/110/61/1275980198/Update_Service_Setup-2.10.6.21.exe
2. Follow the onscreen instructions
Happy Updating!
Great News! I hope the devs know about this, so they can update the x10a baseband for the root. This would mean no more audio jack problems for some X10a..s that get root!
Hows the in-call volume? Did it get a boost? Currantly cant hear well when theres noise around.
Is that the 2.1 or just a firmware update? I can't tell since i never got an update

No 2.1 with this update. All improvements listed in changelog thread present.
Excellent update.
In-call volume marginally improved.
Sent from my X10a using XDA App
Wht exactly gets depeted from the phone with
this and how do we prevent it.
Thanks for the heads up! By the way where do I find the change log thread? Where is it exactly?
Did you try rooting it after the update?
@forzanerazzuri
Nothing gets removed. Settings, contacts, email etc stay the same as prior to the update. There are two choices through SEUS. "Update" and "Factory Reset and Update". Choose Update and all remains set-up.

I swapped my firmware from the R1FB brazillian to the R1FA014 Argentinian and then SEUS recognized an upgrade available.
Great update. Its like a new phone. Love the fade effects. Much faster and the battery is awesome. 5 hours with wifi on and I'm at 91%. Normally id be around 70%. Thanks SE.
Thanks! uabtodd that worked =D just finished charging, i'm excited to see the battery difference =D

Thanks for that. I went from AR firmware to BR. Then switched back to Rogers for the update. Ill debrand again using AR then
Battery life is definitely better, though I wish I was getting the kind of life others seem to get. before the update, I would take phone off charger at about 6am and by lunch time would be at 20%, have to charge it up at work just to make sure it would make it home before dieing. Today, after update, I took it off charger at 6am and i just now plugged it up to charge at 5% (9:30 pm). At least now it makes it through the day without a midday recharge.
I'm pissed, I did the update, everything went fine. Everything was normal. However, the software was telling me that there was another update available, right after I updated. So I let it run again. Turns out that second update, whatever it was, did a hard reset to my phone and I lost everything... Software now tells me my phone is up to date, thanks a**hole!
I'm gonna call Rogers telling them i'm pissed and I'll have to use half of my monthly's allowed date to reinstall everything because of their update.. I only have 150mb on my data plan, no wifi at home (wifi modem/router died 2 weeks ago) I'll see if they do something for me...
You should use the Sony Sync every few days and back up all your important stuff to their free online storage....I always do just in case
Wow just bricked my phone doing this.
When I used SEUS it downloaded the thing, then as it was installing it gave an error and canceled
Any help?
Going to call SE tomorrow

Have you got the latest security update?

Just wondering. I haven't recieved mine even though it's already on NoDo.
Nothing here. UK and Nodo.
Nothing here,
Official NoDo from Orange UK - Zune says up to date.
Nothing on my debranded Omnia7... running NoDo already!

you won't be getting the latest update until they fix whatever issues they found with nodo

Really?!
Because Google gives me nothing to back this up. The only thing I can find is that Microsoft has stopped the NoDo update not this security update for those who already have NoDo.
Have you read through all the posts I've ever made by the way? Suggesting that I must try Google "for once" shows your obvious ignorance.

Well if i got it right from the post on windowsteamblog.com delivery of all updates has been stopped and not just NoDO. Here is the quote from that blog:
As some of you know, we recently halted delivery of updates to Samsung Omnia 7s after learning of a technical issue that required a new update software package.

Ah OK.
I too had read this article: http://windowsteamblog.com/windows_phone/b/windowsphone/archive/2011/05/03/latest-update-news.aspx
But because they'd split it into two seperate parts I'd presumed the first part (about Omnia 7 & Focus) was referring to the pre-NoDo and NoDo update. However I can see what you mean now.
Latest update: http://windowsteamblog.com/windows_.../05/10/updates-now-delivering-to-telstra.aspx
I know some of you are eager for news on the Omnia 7 and Focus issues I discussed last week. We’re making progress, but I don’t have anything new to report just yet. As soon as I do, I’ll let you know.

Man, searched for my cable for like 10 minutes, connected, THERE IS the update available, but Kies says "recharge the phone" and does not let me proceed proceed with the update. It is end of day here on the east coast of the USA, phone is at 20% power. Gonna be one sleepless night for me

They released an update for Kies about two weeks ago. Are you using the latest version? Also, I don't know where you got your phone but some of the Expansys USA phones were from Eastern Europe if that makes a difference.
Because I'm anal, I rebuild my phone from a factory reset when I update it. It was kind of cluttered anyway. Since I've got to go through the whole setup process I'll post any changes to apps and such as I'm slogging through it.
I know this has to have been covered in the past, but I'm struggling to understand it. I know if I update through Kies, I'll lose root. Is there a way to download this kernel and push it through Odin and not lose root? Sorry to rehash this again. Thanks.

Actually how can you tell if it's UK or Eastern Europe? All my instructions came in English and both the device and manual use british english. Anyway just plugged in again and said I had latest which was KE7/KE4

First casualty. IM is broken. Either through the Social Hub or via the IM app it craps out with "error occurred."

When you plug it in Kies it should tell you what version your phone is in brackets at the end of the firmware version. Mine is (XEU)

The box would have been in Polish and when you turned the phone on it would have been set to Polish too. From what you described, you've got a UK phone. It's odd though, that Keis sees your phone's firmware but doesn't offer an upgrade.

I forgot to boot my mac into bootcamp. Kies for Mac is beta and hence does not offer firmware upgrade, only the PC version does.

I have the polish version also, and Kies has KF2 as the latest firmware. I tried it twice, but I had lots of problems with data and voice connection on Rogers in Canada. I hope the KF3 will fix this problem, when it is available.
Isn't kf2 much recent build than kf3? Wondering what is the advantage of updating to an older build.

plug the phone into PC and open Zune. If it doesn't prompt you to update then in zune go settings> phone> update
I may have had it yesterday but through my phone on the charger w/o looking at it. Saw the update when I got up at 0530, though. Cool that I got it, but I was hoping for Mango and am still waiting on a replacement phone in the mail that is "in production"
Ok, so I tried to update it but Zune didn't say anything so I checked the settings and it said my phone's firmware is 212. Does that mean it did it on it's own? Also when I bought the phone off of somebody almost a month ago they had put the version of Mango that was out already on it. Is it possible that they put this on there too?
firmware wise, you should be good to go. as far as your mango rom on it goes...if someone sold it to you with the beta mango on it, and you dont have a NoDo (pre-mango) backup saved you may be screwed on future updates. You might read up on putting the RTM mango on it, as iirc it puts you back in the main update channel.
a month late well more than a month
you finally get it
it does bring some better life to the phone
Although hard reset after the update
Can this update work over the Mango build?
I also have a DVP on AT&T, but I put the Mango release on it in July and so far my phone sees no update when I connect it. Do I need to revert back to the NoDo, pre mango install state?

Pretty sure youll need to go NoDo again. In fact, I'd stay there for the time being since Mango is imminent.
I got my replacement phone today (AT&T) that shipped out on 9/23. It didn't even have NoDo installed. At least I was able to update it but I would've thought it would at least have NoDo. Damn Dell.
AT&T DVP without nodo would be good thing because you could unlock it then update. Most ( all I thought before reading your post) AT&T DVPs shipped with nodo so no chevron unlock.

Is AT&T Pushing Mango out to DVP owners now?
I reverted to NoDo and the 7392 update came down. WiFi works! Haven't seen the Mango update yet, though and reverting to NoDo from Mango makes me really miss those Mango features.
The status page on AT&T says that DVP Mango update is in planning. But this thread makes it sound like AT&T users have received a Mango update. The WMPOWERUSER trick of pulling the ethernet on Update has not tricked Zune into updating my phone. So... is the Mango update available from AT&T for DVP or not?

It has not been pushed yet.

Since Dell iced it's WP7 division... is AT&T Mango gonna happen?
Shoud I unlock the phone and go without AT&T integration or wait for Dell/Microsoft to figure this out? As noted, this isn't "scheduled" or "in progress", it's "in planning" which translates to a multi-month delay, or never before we get the update.

Where is the 8107 update from orange UK?

Maybe it's like on 3 here in Sweden, 3 is going to need to accept the update. A friend of mine got the update notify but can't install it untill 3 says ok.

You aren't the only one who's waiting for this update.
I'm also using Omnia 7 from Orange UK and no upgrade in Zune for that moment.
I think i'll try to flash it with DFT Rainbow ROM (based on 8107)

Had a few problems with Rainbow *not just the relocking* but I've been using this for 3 days now and its a lot less hassle with an Omnia 7
Same here. Orange UK - Still on 7740.
Orange have been poor with updates. Shame really... I couldn't look at other networks though as Orange have by far the best deals available and do stock a decent range of WP7 handsets.
I've been having major issues with the 3G not working randomly after 8107, so you are quite lucky.
I know this is an oldish thread but has anyone on orange/tmob/everything everywhere or whatever they are calling themselves today have the 8107 update?
The disappearing keyboard is such a pain and I need a fix.
It's Mozart I'm wondering about really because reading up it seems other phones may already have had this update.
I called Orange business support and theire tech guys "don't know about any 8107 update". I thought this was just the call centre woman fobbing me off so sent an email to account managers and they said the same thing even though I sent them offical link from MS about the update.
Wasn't being pushed to my Omnia 7 on T-Mobile UK as of last week.
Is your phone Interop unlocked? If so you could just tweak a registry entry so you receive the update.
If not, you can manually update using the cab sender method. Doesn't require a developer/unlocked phone. I did it myself and its pretty straightforward.
I followed this guide. Easy to do and it shouldn't stop you getting future OS updates (i.e. Tango) and manufacturer firmware updates through Zune. That is, if Orange ever get round to letting them be pushed out.
Thanks sab, I followed the guide and have updated my phone.
I've not seen any problems so going to update my colleagues phone too!
I'm just annoyed with Orange for not pushing updates from MS. I think MS should take control of updates like they do with their operating systems and take the carrier out of it. I appreciate there will be regional issues and carrier specific configurations but it's just silly having updates and not being able to apply them.

Can you confirm this works OK for Orange UK? I don't want to screw up a phone when I still have a few months of the contract left. Also, did you only need 5 language pack on the Mozart? Mine only lists 5 under Display Lancuages, but loads under Region Format.

I've been using it fine since I posted that updated. As has my colleague. So great to fix that annoying 'hidden keyboard' problem.
If I remember correctly, I used the 5 languages pack only. The same as what was listed in the languages section of the phone.
There are no guarantees and you may screw up your phone. That's the risk you'll have to take.

Forgive my asking another stupid question, but my phone only lists "English". Am I correct in assuming this is English-UK?
I'm also wondering if I should to this if it might break the auto-update and the Tango update might be available in the future. Any thoughts?
Finally, my phone's on 7740, not 7720. Anyone know if that would make a difference?
Yes "English" is English UK. Mine is the same.
I can't comment on the Tango update but I doubt it will affect it. This cab update your doing is an official release as far as I know but it's just that you are forcing the update instead of waiting for Orange to do it.
I was on 7740. This should be the latest build(last time I checked) from Orange on my phone anyways - HTC Mozart.
Thread closed, such threads should be started in the General section only.
