May security update? - Focus General

Has anyone received the May security update yet?

I have not. Update will take us to version 7392. It is supposed to correct invalid sercuirty certificates. Does this mean the certificate installed as part of the Chevron process?

Got an update notice today but I already had let the house.
Rogers sim unlocked Focus on Telus.

after debranding

I did not get the update until debranding.
Paul Thurrott said on his blog ( in the comments) that he got the update on his AT&T-branded Focus, as did many others.

cool, thanks guys

No
Nothing yet for my ATT Focus.

Nothing for me, either.
ATT, NoDo, stock as a rock.

I updated tonight. At 7392 now.

OUCH
From Engadget today:
"Microsoft has confirmed that phones updated using "any unofficial mechanisms" to NoDo (which was 7390) will not be able to get 7392 via its very official mechanism: Zune."

They mean the chevron method, not the unbranding method with VPN.

I used VPN method and am now at 7392

Still no notice
Anyone else on AT&T still waiting for the notice an update is available? Mine's still saying I'm up to date at 7390. Updated with timing trick and then rebranded, hardware v1.3. What a frustrating rollout process.

Bummer. Well, I hope those straggling notices roll in soon. I was getting worried with so many others reporting they got it.

I am waiting as well....thought I might be the only one since I did things a little bit differently in that I had NoDo via the Hungary update, then did the SSL to 7392, then rolled back to 7390, then did a hard reset. So for me it is good news to know others are still waiting......thought maybe doing the roll-back stuffed it up for my phone.

Looks like we are waiting for AT&T to finish its own testing again. Currently, AT&T is testing NoDo update for Focus rev 1.4 firmware. Hopefully, when that is done, AT&T will start testing our security update. We won't see this until mid summer at best
I thought by now we all know what to expect. Every update needs to go through carrier testing and AT&T is one of the worst in finishing testing on time.

I unbranded my NODO Focus to 000-88 and the message showed up on my phone that there was an update available. I rebranded to att-us and no update available.

Similar to me then, except I then did a hard reset.
I am on Rev 1.3 and not Rev 1.4, so there should not be any waiting for ATT to finish testing NoDo for Rev 1.4 before testing 7392 for Rev 1.4

I'm pretty there is only one testing group inside AT&T. If it is currently still testing NoDo for rev 1.4, it won't test anything else including security update for rev 1.3.

Debrand!

If you want the update, all you have to do is debrand, again. Then rebrand, if you wish, or don't. It really was that simple for me - one string, in one key.

List of Updates So Far

With all these updates from MS and device specific updates from OEMs it's quite easy to lose track of the updates. Especially if you have modified your device via registry and might have missed out. So this thread is just to keep track of all the updates released for Omnia 7 so far.
Right now, I have a device which was C7 unlocked after the pre-nodo update. Updated to Nodo and used Samsung tools prevent relocking. No samsung specific updates so far.
List so far
1)Pre-Nodo
2)Nodo
I Chevron unlocked it the day I got it, no updates available, then used that registry unbranding and got the Pre-Nodo right away. Haven't gotten the Nodo update yet.
Mine's from Germany btw.

'New' Samsung update

So a few weeks back I forced NoDo on my phone. I haven't plugged it into my PC for a bit but this morning when I did I got a message that a 'New Samsung Update' was avaliable for my phone.
Not sure what it is, maybe just some branding things...I'll keep you posed in case no one else has seen/tried this.
It is a firmware update. Ppl who update to NoDo officially will have it inside the NoDo package already. Those updated earlier need to do it separately. It's bug fixes and new features (outlined in WPCentral.com).
I'll have to look that up, I must've missed the article. It went through no problem at least.
Yeah, new features include the AT&T-specific stuff (AT&T address book account type available to add), as well as a change to default camera settings (anti-shake on by default), and a change that prevents you from swiping onto the capacitive buttons from the main display and accidentally activating them (thus exiting a game when swiping too far, etc.) - they respond to taps, but are disabled when your finger starts up on the display portion of the screen. Not sure what else yet...
I don't think that the Samsung update is actually bundled with NoDo (at least not for everyone). I've got the official NoDo update for Rogers in Canada, but none of the Samsung update features (i.e. anti-shaking is still off by default, buttins the same as pre-NoDo).
I assume we are talking about AT&T update unless specified otherwise. Rogers customer get the update a while back. There was a talk of firmware update after you updated to NoDo. These two phones really should have be treated separately.
Can anyone with a Rogers Focus confirm this? Does anyone who got NoDo through Rogers actually have anti-shaking enabled by default?
My thoughts: Rogers did get a firmware update post nodo that did not include anti-shake. AT&T users recently got it bundled with some AT&T specific features. Rogers users still without anti-shake. Maybe soon? Might be waiting to bundle it with other fixes...
does this samsung fimware update gives new numbers in firmware version? because i did not see any firmware version change after official nodo update through zune sync.

Assume you have an AT&T Focus:
1. There are two updates. You need run the update twice.
2. Yes, the firmware version gets bumpped to 11.3.3
ATT Focus
Thye bootloader also changes. I can confirm that the Chevron Updater method does take you to 7390, but does not change the Firmware, Radio Software or Boatloader version. The Samsung Update from Zune (Official ATT) does change these.

[Q] What is the highest firmware version for the Samsung Focus at 7392?

I am having trouble updating to Mango, so I am wondering if part of my problem is older firmware. I have a Focus v1.4
For those of you with a Samsung Focus on 7392, what is your firmware revision number? Mine is 2103.11.4.1
Define trouble in your case.

I have a thread here about it.
The Mango beta (7712) is done before Microsoft could fix the Focus v1.4 issue in 7392, IIRC. So, I suspect the the actual beta bits is not compatible with Focus v1.4. You should sit tight and wait for the official Mango release from AT&T.

double lame on Focus v1.4. Super late release of NoDo, no Mango beta...

AT&T Beta Bundle Cleanup

Just recieved 3 updates in a row. Still on the last one which says it gives the phone the ability to update to the Official Mango. Hopefully right away it'll update to Mango lol.
Ok, now it just started a Dell update. I'm crossing my fingers for more.
OS 7.5
OS version 7.10.7720.68
Firmware 2250.1800.7720.219
Don't know if I'm still on the Beta or what is different but I'll take it.
I'm sure there's many other ways to tell if you're on the final release or the beta, but one I know: check to see if you can add a hidden wireless network in the Wifi settings.

Are you on a locked AT&T phone or unlocked?
Honestly, I'm an Android user who bought this a few weeks ago and am not sure. It's on AT&T but I don't know if its locked or not. But I did find out that it is officially on Mango now.

Firmware upgrade

Did Dell ever Release the updates for the firmware? last time i heard someone mentioned, it would be June or there about.
plug your DVP into your laptop and check Zune to see if your firmware is up to date.
first time i updated to mango and firmware 212 was updated too, it went to 219, however, it didnt work for outgoing calls, something wrong... then i went back to NoDo,
again updated it to Mango, this time i stopped the firmware update, im in 212 now, and everything is working fine,
by the way, im from mexico, so, i expect that if you update to 219 nothing extraordinary happen... it will work...
regards and good luck
