My phone currently updating to version 7008 - needs update to Zune too which is downloading first.
Was on 7004.
Will let you know what happens!
I can't see any changes...
Also no saving of the changes you make in Camera or so on...
Is this the update before March Update!?
Yeah, this is just an update to pave the way for future updates. You'll find nothing new here.

Is the Camera any better...? could be into the realms of imagination here but took a photo and it seemed clearer than previous efforts on standard settings. Phone also 'seems' a little zippier.
Not totally sure so guess things aren't that different.
Backup worked nicely though.
Mine is in the process of updating. The backup process takes a while.
I wonder if we can use someone elses backup to restore a phone? I only ask because I flashed my UK T-Mobile device with the unbranded Samsung one because it was said that it fixed Bluetooth problems. However, it has had no effect, and now I can't take my phone back to T-Mo because it's not running the original firmware. If I can get it back to UK spec, then I can take it back to a shop and swap it for a (hopefully) working one...
Done. It is only a preparatory update for the actual update containing copy and paste, improvements to Windows Phone Marketplace et.al. Ergo, it doesn't contain any new functionality and won't remove or hinder any installed jailbreak functionality.
Yup, more playing, definitely no changes I can find...camera taking a better photo just happened to be a picture in better light.
This update has bricked my Omnia 7.
When I connected my Omnia 7 to Zune today, I was notified of an update. Zune updated itself and quit. I restarted Zune and it informed me there was an update for my phone. I clicked update now and it got to step 6/10 rebooting phone. The phone evenually rebooted and Zune reported the following:
RESTORATION ERROR
An error prevented the restoration of your phone to its previous version. Your phone cant be used in its present condition and there are no restore points for it on this computer. Thephone might restart and return to normal if you disconnect it. For further assistance, contact your mobile operator.
ERROR CODE C101002E
Thanks Microsoft, that's a really helpful message. NOT.
I have manually updated to the latest Zune, rebooted my PC, rebooted my phone, and I get the same thing every time.
THIS IS NOT GOOD ENOUGH MICROSOFT. My Omnia 7 is now a brick.

Sorry for that. I was afraid of this happening to me when the update stalled at the 7th step

Sorry about that. I was afraid of this happening to me, after the update stalled for an hour at the 7th step, so I disconnected. Luckily nothing happened to my device. But apparently several Omnia 7 are experiencing this.
Sort it out, MS.
First things first. I was updated Zune to the recent version, because I was curious it will resolve a problem with login user on one of my computers. One (Windows Vista) works fine, but another one, Windows 7 (both 32-bits versions) works fine with Zune + Market.

I've done the same. I have (branded) T-Mobile UK phone and decided update to unbranded one. I choose version I8700XENJK1 (but I tried another one before) - for me, one difference is language Dutch / Belgium if I remember correctly.
I've read this thread and I was wondering if my phone will find update... I had no information about this.
I return home, connect Omnia to computer and update process start immediately. I had no problem with update at all. Phone during update reboots twice (or more) and it looks stable. I haven't noticed any changes or improvements... maybe it's working a little bit faster, but maybe it's a auto-suggestion.

Update error
801012DD Error code - we couldnt create a backup of your phone
Help !!!!!
Have you got samsung tools installed?
I have tried twice to install the update. Both times I got stuck at 7 or of 100 with 100%.
The only thing I have done my phone is to unlock it with chevron.
Altough I did have it in flight mode at the time to prevent relocking.
Do you think that would have affected anything?
Still nothing showing up for me yet. Those who got the mini update does your 3 button combo into download mode now work if you had a phone that didnt let it happen before?

Three button combo now gives me the rather scary option to Format or Cancel. I thought Cancel would be the way to go....
Successful Updaters: Please post your Firmware revisions
For those who have managed to get the update installed without error, can you please post here your firmware revisions. We may be able to work out which models are affected by the issue.
There are rumours that this update only affects firmware versions JI9 and JJ4 while the JK1 firmware is unaffected.

How can I check which firmware revision I am using?
Hey guys, I own a i9000m with sasktel (so same as bell I believe). And I want to upgrade to gingerbread. I updated kies to get the latest version (phone worked great with it before) and now I get "kies cannot start service on the device, please unplug and replug in the device".
Any place I can get the official firmware that kies would give me and flash with odin?
Thanks
(and yes I did search )
edit: Uninstalled kies, uninstalled drivers, reinstalled a fresh kies off of samsung.ca and its upgrading my device now.
Mods can delete/close this thread. thanks guys
edit2: okay, spoke too soon. After I backed up my data about 3 minutes later after "preparing upgrade" it said "device is not responding". Rebooted my device and tried to connect it again, then I got the same error about it can't service the device. So I uninstalled kies and re did it, did the same thing with the "device is not responding".
I'm frustrated... Can anyone help me to find the official 2.3 so I can flash it with kies?
Thanks
edit 3: gingerbread is installed. Mod can close thread now.
I went from v2 - 7004-7392cab -devicepro.cab- zune to 7403 - 80004005 error trying to install isv 7720.
Looked all over the internet for this code and somebody found a solution on this website(half way down the page)...it relates to a samsung device but if somebody can explain how do i apply this to hd2??
http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/...o/60e728c6-2cfe-47fc-a996-344a9d1c2c0d?page=2
Ps i try cab 7403 to 7661 but fails with error code straight away..WHY?? Do i need devicepro.cab again?? What would be your advice /route if i wanted to try the cab install to mango? Detailed guide would be awesome
Im running out of patience now i think
Why dont you try to flash your device over Zune?
Just install V2 ROM and then follow the instructions and update via Zune.
Rosetti you couldnt have said better. I Updated All Through Zune. DeviceProvisioning.cab is needed for going from NODO to MANGO.
Yeah dude do it over Zune the last stages are way easier over zune
i can't believe i tried everything else but not this method...thanks all ..i will report back later 2nite..
I dont believe it!
all week i have been messing around with cabs files as people were constantly reporting errors with zune thats why i decided to avoid it but il be damned!
process took around 2hours from start to finish..still got cleanup to go but i rather get some sleep..
i just went from 7403 rom .turned phone off
format sd card
enter magldr - clear and enable stuff
usb mode
flash v2 rom
set up date and time
zune found february update
zune found 7392
Send devicepro.cab via cabsender
zune found 7720 took fooking ages
zune finds cleanup - gta wait till 2mro thou..
not one trick applied ie hard resets/change time zone/reserved space/virus off
it was as simple as that..good nite!
i followed yuki v2, then force update with zune i got 7xxx (forgot) then again force update i got 7392 but then i cant force it anymore to get 7403 (before final force to 7220). i tried 1 sec then pull the internet cable. no success. tried 3,4,5 secs, also no luck. comments?
Once I succeeded in installing Mango on HD2, but then I realised that it's not unlocked. So I flashed my phone again... and now I'm stuck on 7008 and Zune's not giving me any update.
Can you please help me? My hair is all grey

Have you tried forcing it??
I did and it worked now... (not before, didn't get the right timing)

How did you realise this, Venerable sir? Did it say it in toms xap(number of reasons)? Did you try to send dev-unlock-remove.cab then dev-unlock.cab?
You might have saved yourself some trouble and hair dye

I have to say, I tried every possible timings (all between 0 and forever). Don't work for me. Worked with the NODO update on second try. Mango - no chance.
*edit: Don't know why. Yesterday cab sending did not work. Gave me an error. Went to bed. Just thought I'd give it a nother shot - worked. Sent the .cab and Zune found the update for my Phone instantly!
Now all I am lacking is the activation key - waiting for the replay by MS.
Thanks to all, that made this possible!
**EDIT²: Now after finding the update, and installing the first step to Mango, I get stuck at the CLEAN UP update. Can't get it solved. Any suggestions?
So, I was eagered to update my phone with the new SFR-FR update, got it all set.
It started all with the 8018001E error I got when trying to update to this update, so I thought I would just leave it, and I changed my carrier to 000-88.
Then I saw there was another method to update, with the WP7 Cab Sender and the update as a .cab file. Tried this one out when I was still being debranded (000-88), this time the installation failed with error 80180011.
Then (oh dear), I downloaded the Samsung Update Tool from the Omnia 7 support page, and installed a update (or something). Now I tried the official way again (changing carrier to SFR-FR, then Zune update), this time I got the 80180097 error! Yes its raining errors today.
After the Samsung Update Tool thingy, my phone couldn't connect to any network, or sometimes it's connecting to my KPN network for a few moments.
I am tired of this all, all I wanted was to install a few OEM updates, now I end up with this. Can anyone help me out? Really appreciated!
For some reason my Focus rev 1.3 will not update to 7.5 Mango. I'm on AT&T, which supposedly has had the update available for about a month now so I dont know why I'm not getting it.
I have currently the 7.0.7392.0 update on the phone (downloaded via zune back when that update first came out.).
I've tried many many times to do the cable pull trick to get it to update but it will not do it. Is there anything else I can try? Could my phone somehow be reporting incorrect update status?
Maybe try to downgrande to 7004 with roms attached to Samsung Focus section, then do Zune update. Should work fine.
