I recently bought a used Verizon HTC Trophy. I registered it on Verizon and it works fine, both voice and data.
I suspect it may have been a developer phone. If it is I don't mind, but I do mind that I cannot update it using Zune. It keeps telling me that an Update is available (Mango), but when I try to update via Zune it fails with error 80180048.
The phone particulars are as follows:
OS version 7.0.7403.0
Firmware revision number 2305.06.10310.605
Hardware revision number 0003
Radio software version 1.52.00.01.16_23.13w.05.06U
Radio hardware version 3.2.3.D4
Bootloader version 1.3.230506.10
Chip SOC 2.3.0.5.6
The phone also has the following apps installed, which is why I think it may be a developer device.
zGestureBester
zSensorView
zServiceTools
zStartKIGL
Finally, when I turn the phone on it shows the bootloader version and the modem version in the uper left corner of the HTC splash screen.
I am wondering if the bootloader version (or firmware version) is keeping me from upgrading. I took a look around the internet and did not see any references to the .10 version of the bootloader, but I did see post which mentioned that the wrong bootloader can mess up Zune updates.
My preference would be to revert to a simple consumer phone, but at a minimum I'd at least like to be able to get the Mango and HTC radio updates onto the phone. Any suggestions would me much appreciated, and sorry for the noob post.
Thanks

I tried different machines before I sorted the connectivity problem to establish connection to my device until finally my PC can recognise my device.
Now comes the next headache, after getting the connection established I clicked on firmware upgrade - it came up and displays some updates are available -
it shows my current version as:
(PDA)JE9/(Phone)JE9
available update as:
(PDA)JF4/(Phone)JF4
When clicked on 'proceed' - it brings up some warning for me to make sure they are fixed before I proceed further like power cables connected and some warning of not removing or doing anything during upgrade, after I check 'agree' it starts the download by letting me know that the binary files for the new firmware is being downloaded and after the dowload there seems to be a wait creating impatience for us as to what next...after a few seconds I can see the message above the progress bar saying that the upgrade process has begun..
I can see the screen on my SGS display come with the android logo on some work (like road construction work) and the message telling upgrade in progress do not disconnect...it stays in that state for around a minute...no progress in the progress bar....Now suddenly the PC says 'failed to convert to upgrade mode, try later' and even after stopping my phone continues to show the frozen screen with 'upgrade in progress' (getting us confused and scared and dont know if I can unplug - will this brick my device all sorts of question) until I shut down my SGS and reboot to see it is normal as before but whenever I connect for the firmware upgrade all that I know is I am pending new upgrade.
I am stuck and can't proceed further - I tried it many times with many machines no luck. Please anybody suggest a way out.
Some info on my device: Bought in UK, sim free phone from Singapore Singtel as I see the operator's animation in the startup screen.
Other details on firmware:
PDA:I9000DXJE9
Phone:I9000DXJE9
CSC:I9000OLBJE9
In the settings 'About Phone' carries details:
Version: DXJE9
Kernel: [email protected]# (does this mean the device is rooted already?)
I have another question since I saw somebody mention in another thread that whether he/she should do a european firmware upgrade or asian firmware upgrade - I still confused by this question as well, which upgrade will be pushed to you if you are using Kies as it is just one same application made available for download globally.
somebody please help me with the upgrade issue.
isn't there any dev who can help me on this, it looks like i am the only one experiencing this!!!
I don't think many people are getting the upgrade options via kies at the moment.
I'm not seeing it on UK JF3
so hope, there isn't an issue with my device. I am weary because this was purchased from an online site but purchased the device after checking it personally.
One more question, will an unlocked phone get locked after any new firmware updates?
Are sim free and unlocked phones follow different philosophy ie., after unlocking a phone does that become a sim free phone forever.
Second question, how does the OTA update work - if you are not tied to a service provider - does samsung send these directly to all sim free phones automatically, looking and searching for IMEI numbers? and will a rooted phone be allowed to upate to froyo or any official update (for example) via the official Kies?
thanks
There isn't any offical firmware updates, via Kies, and or any other method.

Pls dont give wrong information. If you are suggesting something make it elaborate and clear.
I have clearly mentioned that I can see my current version as: (PDA)JE9/(Phone) JE9
Update available version:
(PDA) JF4/(Phone) JF4
thats what is displayed via Kies. I am also aware from this forum that some people can see the update whilst others dont see any.
Having said that, I was asking a techy questions as to whether a OTA upgrade or a upgrade via Kies from Samsung still happen if the phone is rooted and also if the phone is sim free and not attached to any service providers will the OTA upgrade will happen if so, is it based on IMEI number that will automatically be tracked OTA.

I was wondering if anyone found a solution to this problem? I am having the same problem.
I'm looking at this also.
after following this: (oh great, can't post links)
I had a problem updating to the official Foyo via Kies.
Finally got my PC to recognise the phone then started the update.
Phone screen went all green part way through and nothing was happening for about 20 mins so unplugged.
Phone would switch on but came up with a little picture on the screen and thats it.
so got it updated to JPM by booting into download mode and using odin. Took 5 mins once I downloaded all the files.
Hi,
I have laid my hands on a HTC Trophy and I would like to chevron7 unlock so I make make some registry changes.
However, I am currently on the the latest ROM which is 7392
From what I have read, I need to downgrade to 7004 and then I can do the chevron cert unlock.
Unfortunately I haven't managed to find any tutorials or guide for this and dont want to end up with a brick.
Can anyone assist me or point me in the right direction?
Phone Details:
Carrier : Vodafone NZ
OS Version: 7.0.7392.0
Firmware revision number: 2250.09.12000.179
Hardware revision number: 0003
Radio software version: 5.54.09.21_22.33b.50.10U
Radio Hardware version:A.102.0.D4
Bootloader version: 1.20.2250.0(117833)
Thanks in advance.

When you upgraded your phone to 7392 you automatically created a Backup with Zune.
The Backup can be found somewhere at:
C:\Users\XXXXXX\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows Phone Update\2cb49707 - da54f4ef - ab0d6f87 - 9d2bc573\RestorePoint.
So to restore your backup - connect your phone - open Zune - click "settings" - phone - Updates - there you should find the restore option.

Thanks for that. However, i ended up just flashing a custom rom and it did the same thing. Now all unlocked.
Cheers
Trophy Rom
hwere did you find the custom ROM can you please give me link
I managed to downgrade my Trophy from 7392 using the following method:
1. Download the relevant ROM, I used the oldest Vodafone one listed in the development section of the Trophy forum.
2. Disconnect from the PC if it is then turn the device off.
3. Hold the volume down button and then hold the power button unitl the boot loader screen appears. You'll know what it is as it's multi coloured.
4. Now connect it to your PC and Windows should detect it as an HTC USB Sync device.
5. Run the ROM package you downloaded earlier and follow the instructions. You will be erasing all data on the phone.
6. Updater should run!
These are only the steps that worked for me so I can't guarrentee it will work for anyone else.
Hope this helps some people.

Just unboxed a Verizon Trophy today. Activated on the Network successfully.
Phone is running the following Windows Phone Version
OS Version: 7.0.7389.0
Firmware Revision Number: 2305.06.10322.605
Hardware Revision Number: 003
Radio Hardware Version: 1.52.00.03.28_23.15w.05.06U
Bootloader version: 1.3.230506.23
Chip SOC version: 2.3.0.5.6
The phone is saying no updates found.
Zune software did not update on initial connection.
When trying to manually update via Zune Software 4.8 the following error appears.
"Can't check for updates right now. Please try again later.
We couldn't connect to the update service. Disconnect and reconnect your phone, then try installing the update again.
80072EE7"
This error has occurred on three separate computers including a fresh install.
While this device is brand new it's no longer under warranty.
Any Ideas?
Verizon, HTC, and Microsoft have no clue whats going on.
Screw that, you have two options.
SPL hack, custom rom. Read my guide here to find out how!
Benefits:
Full unlock, run stuff like Opera!
Internet sharing enabled!
Download the newest rom and flash it. You won't lose any data since you have non to lose. Go to footballs thread here and get "RUU_Spark_W_S_VERIZON_WWE_2.04.605.02_Radio_NV_0215_NV58008_RELEASE.exe".
Sorry I didn't catch this thread earlier, but I hope this helps. I'd just do a full unlock. :/ Having the shipping rom and the 1.03 bootloader (you should), you should be able to unlock very easily.
Sorry, double post... lost internet during first post. Please delete.
Still have not received the mango update. I've been searching and researching this issue for more than 4 months with no luck.
When connecting to zune, it says my phone is up to date with current software version: 7.0 (7392)
i have tried the "walshed" phone fix but that was not the issue.
also, the phone doesnt seem to have full functionality with WPDM and whenever i try and install a .xap file, the application wont launch after being installed on my phone.
the reason i am this desperate is because i want to back up all of my text messages on this phone. my mother passed away recently and it would means a great deal to me that i keep those conversations. if i am able to do this without installing mango, then that is fine by me.
my logic in installing mango is that all of the latest apps such as smsbackup require an unlocked mango device.
i have tried installing WP7 Root Tools so that smsbackup is able to operate on this lg device.
any input would be greatly appreciated, thank you in advance

To backup all SMS and all messages in Messages tile, use SMSBackup. Then try to flash your phone with Telstra ROM, here is the guide.
Note #1: Your phone must be network unlocked first before flashing because you might not be able to enter unlock code once you flashed it to Telstra ROM. The only solution is re-flash to its original ROM then enter unlock code then flash it to Telstra ROM again. You can buy unlock in Ebay.com and price is as cheap as chip.
Note #2: The reason that I suggested Telstra ROM is because it is the only network that give the latest Mango update for LG Quantum, but no sign of Tango.
Hey XDAers,
I bought a used Samsung Focus off ebay and I noticed a peculiar firmware boot up on it. IIRC, it had a screen that said "no SIM", some big text that said "retry in XXXXXX minutes" but had the usual emergency calling button. Seemed a little different looking than what I'm familiar with (I've had two WP7s already). Using the emergency dialer I couldn't even enter the diagnostics mode. Even hooking up USB zune would report that the device was "locked" I thought this all seemed fairly phishy, so I did a hard reboot on the phone and it returned to the usual initial firmware state that I would have expected the first time, just like it should.
I'm running through WP7 updates now, but I'm just wondering, is there still a chance my phone is running a rogue firmware even after these updates? Can I be confident that the Zune updater will verify authenticity of the running firmware on the device?
Thanks in advance!

If you run an update that includes firmware, it will overwrite the current firmware, thus easing your mind.
I figured this to be the case. Was just a little worried about the boot loader being compromised.
