I can't update to WP7 Mango (As many others!!)
Is there anyone who has found a solution to this problem?
Till now, there is no easy solution.
Many of Optimus 7 phones have an old Bootloader and LG has released, seems to me, only for branded phones a newer version.
And with this new version of Bootloader you can update to Mango.
There at Microsoft is a large thread for that:
http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/...b6-ab62-4ca26b3fbbe7?page=32&tm=1317160531307
Have a look there but its not MS fault, its LG.
For the moment, you can flash a ROM of your choice from there and after flashing you got a compatible Bootloader and the update process went smoth and without problems.
Thats my way, my Optimus had the old Bootloader but after flashing the Europe Open ROM, the update to Mango is finished without the above error.
Good luck!

I bought an AT&T Focus and I've discovered its got an old version of the OS on it. I suspect the phone I bought was a testing/engineering version...
I'd like to update the OS/Firmware/Radio/Whatever else to the newest versions. I saw the ROMS updates for other phones, but not for the focus. How do I update my phone?
From the phone update screen, it shows "no updates found"... is there a way for me to force it to recheck?
Thanks in advance

Post the version(s) you have here and other Focus users could compare.
roms
where did you find other roms, I think the focus is the only wp7 phone without a rom floating around.
You should just return the phone to the place where you boughted if you believe your phone comes with an older OS (highly doubt it). In AT&T stores, demo units often are loaded with a Demo ROM which has a different versions than the stock ones.
WP7 OS updates come directly from Microsoft via Zune software on your PC. The first such promised update has yet to come.
I have unlocked but T-Mobile UK branded Omnia 7. It is still on 7004 version, and Zune is still saying that my phone is up to date. I can't even update to 7008, not to mention No-Do update.
Does anyone else have same Omnia 7? Can you update your phone?
Thanks,

you can install chevron tool and debrand the phone. You will get the update notification immediately.
I just checked in zune and there is an update for my omnia (finally!). Tmobile UK branded.
same in germany with t-mobile D. Hopefully everything will go well, i have the defekt bootloader.
fyi the first update only installed the 7008 version but the second one was displayed immediately after that. Im still in the installation process, wish me luck

I have the defective bootloader so just did the resistor trick to get into download mode and applied the samsung patch. Not showing any available updates yet though. (I'm on 7390)
i have the defect bootloader as well and it went well, no problem with updating to 7392 and is got a new firmware and bootloader version as well. PERFECT!
Orange UK, still on 7008
fyi, i posted this befor in another thread, perhaps this will help someone

After the official T-Mobile (Germany) Update i also have new firmware etc.
OS: 7.0.7392.0
Firmware: 2424.11.2.3
Hardware: 3.15.0.4
Radio: 2424.11.2.2 (i think equal to the one of the newest firmware release I8700XXKC1 XXKB2)
Bootloader: 5.2.1.4
I had the defect Bootloader 4.10.1.9 before but everything went without a problem! Glad i didnt force any update. things that last will be good in the end ^^
I noticed, that if i swipe accidentially on the "back" or "search" button when surfing or in games, they will not be activated. Only if i lift the finger. PERFECT!
Got the update from nodo to the may update today firmware update that fixed the bootloader
OS Ver: 7.0.7392.0
Firmware: 2424.11.2.3
H/W : 3.15.0.4
Radio Software: 2424.11.2.2
Radio H/W: 0.0.0.800
Bootloader: 5.2.1.4
SOC Ver: 0.36.2.0
I also received 7008 update today, and 7392 right after that. Both installed without any problems, although I had bootloader that was not able to enter download mode. Now I have new bootloader 5.2.1.4. Is this one capable of entering download mode??
yes it is possible to enter the download mode now.
kudos to ms, tmobile and samsung, im really suprised after i expected the worst! Now the branded phones run even newer firmware than the unbranded.
Hey guys,
Have a feeling its going to be a 'No' thread but thought I'd ask anyway..
I upgraded to official Mango release via Ansar's ROM a few weeks back, only to not read instructions and half brick my phone when attempting to return to NoDo (Only get the top line in bootloader mode)..
I've just had news that my carrier (Vodafone NZ) have finally released the official NZ ROM and I would like to update to that if possible as I believe it will fix a few software issues (Such as Local Scout not detecting anything and Bing Song recognition disappearing)..
Is this at all possible avoiding bootloader menu??
Fingers crossed,
MVP
24 hours and not one 'No..'.. I hope that is a good thing..
Hi guys i'm trying to update my Trophy to the official Tango release and i'm getting error number
80180048
There was an error while trying to update your device with the latest software.
Please try again.
Cannot update to highest version.
I've tried everything trying to get the update and nothing seems to be working.
Any suggestions.
I've hard reset and soft reset the phone i've reinstalled Zune and i've called Verizon, HTC and Microsoft for a solution and none have been able to help.
Is your phone unlocked?
Using a custom ROM?
On official firmware, with NO modifications to anything?
You can't update with any modifications...
Tapin' the Talk on the HTC Trophy
I'm on Stock offical Verizon Mango update. I've got no modifications at all was never able to unlock the phone.
OS version 7.10.8107.79
Firmware version 2305.13.20402.605
it's the 16 gb version if that helps.

Did you try to unlock before? Maybe your bootloader is messed up?
Sorry in not much help... You could maybe download the NoDo flash and re-upgrade through Zune.

Thanks Peperm1nt nothing so far has worked. But thanks for trying.
How did you install 8107? Did you force install the updates, or Zune update? Or did your phone come with 8107? I had issues getting my test VZW Trophy to update completely over Zune. I say, take this opportunity to install HSPL so you can have custom unlocked roms, and wait for a nice official Tango release.
Or you can try the Microsoft troubleshooter.. which basically says for error 80180048 to download and install the Windows Phone Support Tools and run some stuff. Try it, maybe it will work...
Or, you can follow my guide to get the phone unlocked once and for-all and BREAK free.... although I gotta revise the guide for tethering stuff with the official updates (which you would want to setup BEFORE installing a custom unlocked custom rom).
im planning on installing a custom rom at the very least since the stock rom is giving me some software glitches. i wanted to know if theres any problem with the new update that would prevent me from rooting, or is just best to update to the newest version while its still on stock

if your talking about the AT&T XT2 it can be rooted on any version
problem right now is Huawei's bootloader unlock page is gone and you'll have to try DC unlocker to pay for a bootloader unlock
I was talking about the original XT, I updated since I see most of the road support the latest version
