How can I tell if I'm on official Mango from Beta? - Venue Pro General

Someone said check the hidden network option but I don't see it and others are saying it's not there for them either and they are on Mango.

it doesn't really matter what version you are now.. you'll want the new firmware even if you are running mango already.
connect your phone to the PC and have zune check for phone updates.
7720.68 is mango fyi (settings, about)

Awesome. I'm on AT&T and I got it then. Thanks

When I had beta installed, there was a message that said "Not for Resale" on the lower part of the screen during startup. The official version does not have this message.

Doesn't NoDo sound a bit defeatist! should have be called CanDo....
I don't think NoDo is out yet. All the Devs got were updated SDKs.
The Mobile OS update is still unreleased to public.
i dont get any update in zune
You need to do a 'Check for Updates' in Zune on your PC. That's how I updated mine.
Sent from my hd2 on WP7
Zune software update has nothing to do with any forthcoming update to WP7.
http://windowsphonesecrets.com/2011/02/08/zune-software-updated-first-windows-phone-update-imminent/
NoDo stands for "No Donut" not "do" as in you are doing something. It's a shot at Google for naming all of their ROM updates after desserts.
Anyhow xbmod and the other guys are already working on this since a few days.

thank you for this download it is cool
thank you very much!you saved my phone
Any improvements in radio from 5.54.09.21 to 5.65.09.25a ??
Sry if asking a stupid question but is this the official tmous rom. because my comp did not save my backup and im ready to run from mango back to nodo so is it safe to flash this rom on any tmous hd7.
Can this be installed if you are running Mango Beta?

Only Zune is able to backup your things. This is a updated ROM, not and update from Zune, so it will wipe everything you have on your device.
Unfortunatly, Microsoft did not developed yet a way to backup your apps + data.

I will try this and let you know. Probably yes, but you will loose your Mango and the everything else on device.

Probably if you're using Mango, you're running Zune Beta Client.
I had Mango and the regular Zune Software on my machine and the updater didn't recognize my device. I entered in USB Mode and everything went fine.
Ofcourse, all the phone was wiped.
Things I realized 'til now:
1 - The performance seems better than the previous NoDo update;
2 - EDGE icon now shows 2G;
3 - There are more languages even for keyboard and the display (cool!!!);
4 - Wifi seems to be 'smarter' and 'faster'. Took less time to connect than before;
Can't tell about the battery life yet.
I'm yet thinking in upgrade to Mango Beta since probably we will have news about RTM update soon.

I just went ahead and rolled back to nodo and did the update over Zune. Here's what I've noticed.
1. As mentioned above edge is replaced with 2G icon.
2. Signal strength is much improved. Thanks HTC.
3. FM radio reception is much improved.
4. The pink tint issue with the camera is fixed.
5. Camera takes much better photos now. Not getting all the blurriness anymore.
6. WiFi connects much faster.
7. Interface is much smoother/faster. Who would have thought that was possible since the interface was already pretty fast.
8. Speaker volume improved.
I'll be testing the battery life today but I've read others saying that the battery life is also improved. Will be testing bluetooth today also. I had issues where mp3s would actually skip over bluetooth and streaming audio would come across slow like a record on the wrong speed. Nice job HTC.
Is there any way to just flash the radio and not the OS image? I want to update my hd7 but im running the mango rtm.
Thanks, downloading now. I'm going to save this one as a last resort just in case my pre-Mango backup doesn't work right.

Make sure your running Zune 4.8 go into your settings to check if it begins with 4.8 your good if not you have to download the the package its around 258mb's.
I was running the mango beta 2 so I just rolled back to NoDo, let Zune install the HTC update, then did the procedure for installing mango beta 2 again and got mango 7712 instead. NICE!!! I feel like I have a new phone.

RTM is 7720, what you are talking about is 7712, which was released for developers yesterday. 7712 is sort of a final RC, which Microsoft deemed to be "good enough" for developers to use to begin testing their software for release.
Anyone know if this contains the latest HTC update for the phone? Or is this a newer radio or something?

How get the .212 FW if you lost you back up! Updated!

So Im fixing this post to make it more clear for everyone and to help out the few who need it. If you are a Unlocked or Tmobile DVP user had updated your phone to Mango and didnt back up you NoDo back up, so you werent able to get the .212 FW fix. This is for you.
So if you are running Mango 7713 or 7714 that was released it removed you from the main update stream and you werent able to get any updates rolled out. However, there has now been a new Mango verison released which is the RTM 7720 build, meaning it will put you back in the main update stream and you will be able to get all future updates. Go to the Windows Phone 7 forum here and follow the instrustions on how to update you phone to that build. When done you zune software will tell you there is another update for your phone which is the .212 FW update. This is really safe and hard to mess up, and you can always restore to where you are no if you mess up. Just after you do your updates this time make sure you back up you back ups! If you have any questions feel free to ask!
theusername said:
So If you update to 7720 (the leaked RTM copy of mango found in the windows fourms) It will allow you to update to .212 after even if you lost your other backups. Because 7720 is back in the main update stream you can get it!

the major question is post 7720 f/w updating that concerns me
What's concerning about it? Its the RTM build its safe and stable. Its the exact same version the next next line of windows phones will be released with.

whether users will get the oem update not on nodo not the os update...because it seems like microsoft and OEMs are bundling the mango firmware and mango os together. We have the OS not the firmware
I've held off on mango altogether until i get the at&t .212fw just because i didnt want to have to revert. But if this is the case (can get mango, then get update) i just may bite the bullet and get rolling. Although...dell said mid august for at&t, so close...yet so far.
They are not putting the two updates together. they are still two seprate ones. and because 7720 in back in the main update stream you dont have to worry about missin out on any updates.

Officiall Mango Update Arrived

Just upgraded from mango rc and there is no skype, can't find how to make mp3 work as a ringtone, also cannot find function which lets me translate text using the camera.
What carrier are you on, and has your phone been debranded?
I still haven't recieved my mango update... I have a Telus phone that has been registry debranded. I'm running it on AT&T's network.
Try re-branding it.

Skype hasn't been released yet AFAIK. There are guides on how to make MP3s that can be used on Mango as ringtones, for example: http://wintellect.com/CS/blogs/jgar...-custom-ringtones-in-windows-phone-mango.aspx
Text translation is done from Bing (the search button) and then you select "vision".

That's my next step, but I wanted to see if anyone with a registry de-branded phone had received an update already. So has everyone here gotten their update but me?
EDIT: I forced the update via Ziko's post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1279960 and the update is currently installing.
I flashed a different ROM, so my phone went back to 7389. It updated to 7392 and got stuck there. So I updated it to the Mango beta via the proper beta provisioning app, and from there it went to 7720 + LG drivers.
I am on Vodafone Spain with an AppHub developer account running build 7712 on my LG Optimus 7 and I have received the ISV 7720 update without forcing it. But it won't go beyond step 6 of the update process (restarting your phone) saying there are some missing drivers or something.
Missing drivers? Odd. Have you tried a different computer?
I'm on ATT as well.... didn't get the option to upgrade, but this worked
http://gizmodo.com/5844454/you-can-force-the-windows-phone-75-mango-update-right-now
It did take a couple of trys, there is a "sweet" spot to disconneccting the comptuer from the internet, and it says to wait 30 seconds, but it took more like 2 minutes. It did come up eventually thought, and I am running 7.5

[Q] 8107 update

heard that the 8107 update is being rolled out...has anyone with a dvp got it? any new features?

Repetively checked via zune since we first heard about the 8107 and still says its current with 7740 Factory unlocked AWS 16GB DVP in Canada.
Hoping that this update would bring meaningful features but alas, it'll probably be a letdown. Really want to like the DVP.
Also, no 8107 update yet on a TMO HD7 either.
No update on Europe Stock Unlocked DVP 8 Gb too...
The update will eventually come. Just be patient.
No problem for waiting. This minor update doesn't contain importang things, just little bug fixes, that I don't see at all...
Anyone have faith in their carrier requesting the update?
http://wmpoweruser.com/microsoft-cl...est-it/?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=twitter
not that the disappearing keyboard is a serious issue?
Is there anyone willing / able to put together a .cab sender package to force us from 7720 to 7740 and then from 7740 to 8107? I don't have the confidence in myself when digging through the different updates and language packs. This would be a donation-worthy effort. Hopefully someone can bundle it together. If not, lets see how TMOUS plays this one.
I'm always hoping in tethering...
I update my DVP with Cabsender and official cabs to this update. Everything is ok, but this update don't good for my DVP.
I don't see any improvements, everything is work good without it. Only visible change is switching between 3G and Edge.
I use it 2 days and has 2 bugs with phone part. One time programs don't see mobile Internet, while "E" is showing and when i need to reboot.
Another time I can't recieve and dial calls and sms, but cellular signal strength showing full. Also need to reboot. Looks like a new RIL driver incompatible with old Dell radio firmware.
Of course I did backup of my last 7740 fw, and returned to it.
P.S.: Before this update I use my DVP more then one month wirh 7740 and don't see any problems with phone/RIL part and i think this is not mobile operator or SIM issues
7.10.8107 Update for DVP?
Has anyone got the 7.10.8107 Update for DVP without any hacks? Or is there any force update method like previous methods without the cabsender etc?
Still not even received the 7740. I know that operators can skip only 1 update as per MS and hence if they skipped 7740 which they did, they need to compulsorily provide the 8107 update. I have read there are a lot of fixes and hope they provide updates at the earliest.

Just wanted to let everyone know that the disable network while checking for updates hack in Zune just worked for me with the 8107 update. Unlocked DVP in Canada if that matters.
Updating right now.. will confirm if tethering is included but really now, not holding my breath.
EDIT: update nothing worth mentioning =( no tethering... only thing I can notice is the drop down selector for 3G and E.
Well, I guess AT&T users won't be getting this anytime soon. Not that it matters I guess, as long as the phone works.
tried the force update using disable network and does not work at my end. Still at 7720. Your phone is up to date.
Tried multiple times and after around 30 seconds get error 80072EFF any suggestions? I also tried Windows Phone Support Tool and says your phone cannot be restored.

Uhh, just a quick question - so all of you have unlocked DVPs and was able to successfully update your firmware using the Zune software?
I'm just asking because I also have an unlocked DVP and still no update - then again I'm on Windows Phone 7 Connector for Mac...
Still no update on my DVP. Still at 7720. Force update method not working as stated in my earliest post
