[Q] Update for LQ Quantum

I Had question to someone:
1. What the latest updates for LG Quantum AT&T?
2. What is Nodo? Are NoDo is official update from Microsoft?
3. Where i can download free Angry Birds
4. Why Google didnt make app for WP7 devices?
5. Are my data in phone memory when updating my phone are gone?
Sorry for my bad English

As a Microsoft Student Insider, I can answer these questions.
The latest update is the 7392 update. This is a minor update released after Nodo. NoDo is the codename for the first major update for the Windows Phone operating system. It is an official Microsoft update. In order to get an update, just connect your quantum to your windows system using the Zune client software. Any (and all) updates to the Windows Phone operating system that Microsoft releases is free. In regards to updating, you cannot apply the latest update directly. You must apply the updates in steps (for example, stock rom version -> 7008 -> Nodo -> 7392 -> Mango (when it is released).
Angry Birds is not free. I believe it costs $2.99 (or whatever it costs in your currency).
Probably the best reason that Google didn't make Windows Phone versions of its apps is because it already has Android (and if it did make them, Google would just be feeding its competition).
Any data that was on your device before an update is applied will be there after the update. During the update process, the Zune client backs up the files on your system and restores them after the update has been applied. If something does go haywire during the update process, you can use the backup that the Zune client made to restore your device to the way it was before your last update.
I hope this helps you and answers your questions. If you want some good insight and news on windows phone, feel free to check out my blog (link is in my signature below).

You can also get the Mango Beta 2 update. You can find the procedures here on the WP7 forum.

It's in beta, which means that it is not the finished product and there may be some bugs that haven't been fixed yet, but most of the important bugs have been fixed. If you want to play it safe, just wait until an (official) update for Mango is put out.

[Q] A few starter questions regarding the DVP

Hello guys, I'm few weeks from getting my Dell Venue Pro, but I'd like to ask a few questions before actually getting one.
I'm from Croatia and getting this phone here has been a true nightmare.
1. Will the marketplace and newsroom work for me here) (since I've read that it's only for people who have their live accounts registered in the US...and if that's the case, can i simply change my city in the live profile and that's it...or make a new account?)
2. Will this phone get the Mango update? (and where will I get it from)
3. Will I have to get the new firmware and is it that hard for a beginner to install the Mango? (cause here NOBODY has wp7 devices)
Thank you so much!

2) Yes, the phone will get Mango. When the official Mango update is released by Microsoft, connect your phone to your PC with a USB cable and launch the Zune software. The Zune software will automatically update your phone - very simple process.
If you want Mango before the official release, then you can follow the steps documented on the forum. However, if you're a beginner, it might be easiest to just wait the extra few days for the official release. (If you have an unlocked phone, you'll get the update very soon after release).
3) The Zune software will install your new firmware automatically. Official updates are very easy to install - Zune takes a backup of your phone and then applies the update.
Don't know the answer to 1. However, it's not a DVP-specific question, so if no-one here knows the answer, you could try asking on the main WP7 forum.

Thank you so much for your reply. Fell so much better now about it

How update to future official Mango and leave phone unlocked?

Hi,
I just took home HTC Trophy. It has version 7004, so I can use Chevron tu unlock it. I need it, because I have to change some registry setting before update to Mango, so it would download Mango localized into my language.
My queations are:
1) Do I need to update phone to some mid-version before going to official Mango, or will it be update from 7004 directly to Mango? I need to have that modified registry value in time, I will be making Mango update, so I dont know, if some mid-version would not delete that modified value...
2) Will be phone still unlocked after doing update to official version of Mango (of course in time it will be released)?
Thanks for answers!

You can give this a try. Didn't work for me but some claim it does. Other than this there isn't a way to do this right now (AFAIK).

[Info] Windows Phone Blog - Where’s Mango? An update on timing

Hello all,
I found this today, for your information:
Where’s Mango? An update on timing
‎Gestern, ‎21. ‎September ‎2011, ‏‎19:04:36 | Eric Hautala
Hi everybody. Given all the recent speculation around the timing of our Mango update, I wanted to bring you up to speed on what to expect next.
For months, we and dozens of our partner companies have been laying the groundwork for the Windows Phone 7.5 update—and making solid progress. As a result, we now expect to start rolling it out in the next week or two. At that time, we’ll also refresh the Where’s My Phone Update? table to reflect the worldwide rollout status.
This also seems like a good time to caution against installing unofficial or leaked copies of Windows Phone software.
During the official Windows Phone 7.5 update process, every Windows Phone will also receive software from the handset manufacturer. This matched and paired firmware has been painstakingly tuned so your phone—and apps—work with all the new features of Windows Phone 7.5. Since your phone requires the proper firmware to function as designed, my advice is simple: steer clear of bootleg updates and homebrew tools.
By the way, in case you missed it, we recently released new versions of both the Windows Phone 7 Connector for Mac and the Zune software for PCs, which you’ll need to update your phone. If you haven’t already, I encourage you to install it. I think you’ll like the update-related improvements, which speed up the overall update process and give you more control over backups. A small favor: When you update to Zune 4.8, you’ll be asked to participate in improving the update process. Please consider doing so.
I know you’re eager to get your hands on the next release of Windows Phone—and everyone involved with Windows Phone is equally excited and eager to deliver it to you. Please hang on—we’re almost there.

I've tried but zune said it was error.....
I use "Back to the Future" Rom.

So this update doesn't seem to work. I don't even know why we'd need it since we have Mango. Or is there a difference between Official Mango and RTM Mango?

Update name : Mango ISV beta Bundle: Cleanup
I got the same problem, error code 800B010A

checkout the "Back to future" thread seems others got it resolved. Wondering whats different from that of the "Back to future" rom am using.

Keep checking Footballs rom thread, I'm sure if there is an official rom, that they will have it. He normally post the roms a few weeks before Verizon allows updating to Zune.
If you expect Verzion to release it's Trophy Tango update the same day as everyone else, don't. I honestly think HTC is the hold up, since they treat the CDMA Trophy on Verizon differently, but we probably won't see the official update for a few months.
As for updating your custom rom, don't. If the updates to apply, you'll almost guaranteed to loose tethering in the process (since tethering isn't supported in the official WIRELESS drivers that would be included in an update). Wait for new custom rom's instead.

Felt I had to amend my previous post in this thread. The Tango update actually includes tethering officially now. Football hasn't had any luck finding an official Tango rom yet though. And we did get Tango the same day as everyone else... so Verizon must really be throwing some serious support behind Windows Phone now.. I bet we'll see a Nokia WP7 or even WP8 on Verizon sometime soon!

I certainly hope for 8 in the next few months! But in the meantime, I'm sure a XevRev rom based off the official vzw tango rom would suffice

Well, the problem is that there isn't an official Verizon tango rom yet.
This isn't a huge problem, as I have updated my official based Mango 8107 test rom to 8773 with no hitches. After updating the sys, its a simple matter of updating the driver cabs in the rom, producing a rom that is basically going to be identical to the official Verizon Tango image you get via Zune update, but with full unlock and some of the added nokia fun from Dynamics7.
XevRev is close to being finished. I'm hoping to take the time after work tomorrow to cook up the final version and send it to a few people to test (although it shouldn't need much testing since I have my own person test phone).
XevRev will be based on Dynamics7 1.21 (for Titan) from ultrashot.
That's not even the exciting part!
Thanks to ultrashot's input, we managed to get the entire programming menu and programming function up and running with full unlock! I wish I would have had more time this week to build the finished release... you know what, I'll get the thing cooked, test it myself.. and then just release it for public testing.
Downside: We'll be stuck with the Mango v3 8017 radio until I either a) I build a custom cab that can be pushed to the phone b) manage to extract the radio and adapt it to be flashed using the rom method in my rom thread (unlikely).
XevRev will basically be the following:
Verizon OEM base (not Spark Euro like other SparkW roms that are out now)
Dynamics7 1.21 with custom nokia stuff removed (broke too much stuff) except for Nokia blue-tooth contacts transfer.
Newest xap installer from ultrashot (this is what really makes programming and stuff work!)
Yuki cert
Add Bazaar for WP7 and Reinstaller out-of-box from official market place (cause if people haven't used Reinstaller... they will now that they know it exist!)
If I got time, I'm guna replace Slacker radio with Last.FM cause Slacker sucks.... why would I do that? CAUSE I CAN DURR~
Netflix is byebye.
I'll prob release four versions of this rom:
1) Verizon OEM - English only
2) Verizon OEM - International
3) Verizon OEM removed - English only
4) Verizon OEM removed - International
I don't see a point in making a version with the Euro oem package... I always ended up removing those apps anyway.
I have found no way to install the official updates from Verzion onto this rom (OS works okay, but driver package fails). I'm guessing this is because, when SPL fails to update cause HSPL v3 stops it, the entire processes is aborted.
I'll try to get a test version of English only build out. If that goes well, I'll release the other flavors quickly after. The international version will include all the language support found in Dynamics7 1.21.
