[Q] Issues with updating DVP from 7720 to 8773 !? - Venue Pro General

Sup everyone,
I finally got around to updating my TMO DVP. It's been stuck on 7720 this whole time and want to bring it up to Tango.
My question is: what exactly are the steps to upgrading???
Here are the threads I'm trying to follow in order:

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1736993
From what I understand it:
Install Windows Phone Support Tool
Install WP7 Backup 1.6
Install WP7 Update Cab Sender
Then???
I don't get it. I've installed WP Support tools which doesn't make sense. I have Win7-64bit. The downloads available are x86 or amd64. My computer is intel based, so which do I use? x86 doesn't install, makes sense. I installed amd64.
My next problem is, are there different versions of WP Support Tools? My Zune is up-to-date 4.8.2345.
After installing WP Support Tools:
WPSupportTools.exe is version 0.0.0.0, date modified 4/1/11
UpdateWP.exe is version 6.1.7600.16385 date modified 4/1/11
Microsoft.WindowsMobile.DeviceUpdate.dll is version 4.7.1404.3 date modified 4/1/11
When I run WP Support Tool, I get:
UpdateWP version 4.7.1404
Error: The installed version of the tool (4.7.1404) needs to be updated to match the Zune version (4.8.2345). Please install the tool version 4.8.2345.

Log from when I got somewhere and nothing happened.
I've uninstalled and deleted everything. If anyone can help me out from square one it'd be much appreciated.

It's been a while since I did this. But you did right, AMD64 is correct. And try the file I attached as that's the newest version to match your Zune software. Let us know if you run into anything :good:
(and no, I didn't create the file. I just have it archived from a working cab sender upgrade so credits go to the original poster)

Ok,.
So I installed WP Support Tools.
Copied the files you gave into the Zune directory.
Copied WP7 Backup 1.6 into the Zune directory.
Tried running a backup.
Attached is the error message I got.
I tried the cmd method and that gave the same error.

GoodDayToDie said:
I ran into this issue too.
First question: Is your Zune install in the default location? The support tool installer seems kind of... stupid. It always installs in \Program Files\Zune even if Zune isn't actually installed there. You can copy the files from that location to wherever Zune is installed, if not. Be careful of overwrites.
Next question (really the important one, but the question above can be the reason for the problem): Is there a file called wm7updatelib.dll, or similar, in the folder with your UpdateWP.exe? If so, is it the same version (exactly, down to the build number)? If not, you may need to re-install the support tool (I suggest uninstalling it first, using appwiz.cpl).

Looking at this post.
I have wm7update.dll (not wm7updatelib.dll). It is file version 1.0.0.1 /product version 7.0.0.0.
Can you post the right library file?
Thanks
-
Attached are a list of my files and versions in Zune folder. (Ignore the dual Microsoft and UpdateWP, I just added garbage text to the originals)

Backing up now.
Copied the files attached.
wm7update.dll
Interop.wm7updatelib.dll
Interop.ZuneWmdulib.dll

Good work Glad to see you figured it out. Might want to share your experience if you ran into specific problems in case others have it?

Thanks.
All it was, was making sure I had the right file versions for the right files. Those of which I posted above.

I've just update to 8773 myself as well. However, I want to ask you a question: whether we could re-write the firmware version also? My OS version is 7.10.8773.98, but firmware is 2250.1800.7720.219.

No idea. I noticed that too, but haven't seen anything about it just yet.

Yeah, maybe it's not necessary enough for us to consider that. However, I just noticed that while updating via Zune, this firmware version string is changed, but not with CAB sender. So, I just guess there might be a way to do it by ourselves too!

please note that the firmware package contains the bootloader drivers etc.etc.
Dell will probably not update those any more. The latest o.s. updates are provided by microsoft and they don't include any drivers whatsoever.
As long as the OS version is the most recent, you're good.

opera mini 4.1

new opera mini 4.1 is out.....but the new version allways asks for net access...anyone fix this?
thanx
No signature!
You can download a signed version - open the mini.opera.com from your phone and choose the link "If this version fails to install or you would like to install a previous version, click here" - there are signed versions of 4.1 there (the multiple certificate version works for me).
After using the signed version, you'll have no more problems with permissions (you'll be able to choose "always allow net access").

i thought that was the beta? can u cofirm it is the final?
thanx
Yes - the beta installs as "Opera Mini 4.1" - so that it won't overwrite the official one.
The one downloaded in the "other versions" install as "Opera mini" - so it will update any existing official versions. In its info in jbed, the version is listed as 4.1 - so it seems to be the official one.
[Edit]
Version number listed in help/about of new unsigned opera (default download) is: 4.1.11313
Version number of the new signed 4.1 (downloaded from "other versions" page): 4.1.11313
Version number of 4.1 beta: 4.1.10781
So both downloads are definitely the same (new) version.

thank you...
Where did you find this version? I find myself stuck with the unsigned version, and it's a hassle unlike any other (Using Touch Dual - Norwegian).
i have the unsigned one and somewhere on this forum i found the instructions on what to edit and where to stop it asking. If i remember correctly it required Hex editing a file from the PPC on my PC and copying it back.
i will post the link if i can find it again.
Found it:

The link to other versions of opera mini is right under the main link (in bold text) to normal (unsigned) version download.
At least it is there if your phone model can't be identified (like it happened on my wizard). But even if the phone is recongnixed, yoy should have a link leading to other versions. It just might be described as "previous versions" - which isn't entirely true, since there are both newest signed 4.1 versions, and old 3.0 on the linked page
@deedee - all this editing is only necessary only for unsigned versions of midlets. If you download a signed version, then jbed (and any other JVM) will allow to set permissions permanently, with no file editing needed.

That's kind of why I was asking, because there's nothing like that when I open it. It doesn't recognize it as the Touch Dual even, just as Touch, and it's in Norwegian, so I assume there's a difference.
And it keeps calling it untrusted. I have no idea what's going on >:/

Thank you, thank you very much !!
The text is so unclear that at first i did not go to this page - now i did - signed version - perfect !
Did i say thank you
1. Strange for WM there're no signed versions. For Symbian, there are. I'll elaborate on the issue in an article and will try to provide a link to the version Symbian phones are offered.
2. it's preferable to start threads like this in the General forum (where there is another OM4.1 thread).
@Morghus - try the file attached in the post - international version, signed with multiple certificates. It's just a .jad file, so you'll still need to be connected to the internet to install the program.
I got this file by going to mini.opera.com with... Opera Mini
Do you have a french version signed ?
Thank
edit : because my phone is not detected
Come on, the download website isn't that hard to navigate...
Even if your phone isn't detected, and a 3.1 download is proposed, you can still choose to download the 4.1 version [attachment 1]. This will get you to the 4.1 download page, where you can choose a different language [attachment 2] and once chosen, you can see other available versions - the second link marked in [attachment 2] will get you to page shown in [attachment 3], where you can get the 4.1 signed. Is it really that hard to figure out?
ok cool
thank

Because the option never appears for me. Clicking "4.1" loops me back to v3 no matter how much I wrestle cookies and caches and temps and so on. I know I should have mentioned all the details, I'm sorry :/

Update DVP to Mango. (very fast and easy)

Make sure you are updated to NoDo...
Here is a quick and easy guide:
UPDATING TO MANGO
1) Install the Windows Phone Support Tools 32 bit 64 bit
2) Connect your phone
3) Run Update.bat
4) The batch file will backup your phone, install the updates, and copy your backup to C:\PreMangoState
5) Zune should open and prompt for an update. Follow instructions from there.
6) After installing the first update, Zune will update again to 7661.
RESTORING NODO
Automatic:
You can use the Restore.bat file to automate the restore.
Manual:
1) Copy your backup in C:\PreMangoState to %userprofile%\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows Phone Update
2) Run Zune, navigate to settings, click Update, and press Restore
Dude, is this safe or aare there chances of BRICKING my phone?

There is always a chance, but in this situation it is minimal....Just make sure you are on NoDo, and follow the steps properly.
I updated to Zune a few weeks ago, my issue is that I cant seem to revert back, I have backups in my premangostate folder, each one is about 4GB, but when I put a backup folder in the windows phone update folder and run the restore.bat it says there's no restore point found.. any ideas what im doing wrong?
Edit: I mean updated to mango..
I actually just got over this problem, took me a bit to figure out.
What you need to do is what I did (not sure if it will work):
Delete the PreMangoState folder
Empty recycle bin
Downgrade to zune 4.7
have the WP support tools (Beta 2) installed
restart computer
do the Update.bat program
It should work as normal. When your phone is up to Mango status, then upgrade to Zune 4.8.
My theory is that the update.bat files know that the PreMangoState folder is there if you haven't emptied the recycle bin (since all that is doing is marking the space on your drive as free). However, emptying the recycle bin and restarting clears the space for good, and the update file will work as if it was run the first time.
How to confirm NoDo again?
is this will work on Tmo-US carrier DVP phones.
Appreciate it! But we need to point out this is update to Mango beta, right?
I used the other technique posted for my Tmo DVP and works great. Basically manual without the BAT files and W/o Phone support tools installed. Can't find the link though.
can you pls tell me the steps

NoDo inshort for No-Donut. Its basically a codename (by MS) given to the Windows Phone Feb 2011 update that brought copy& paste functionality and serveral other improvements in the OS.
I failed to upgrade to the next version of Zune after running this. Now when I connect the phone I get the Zune Software update required box. When I click ok, it tries download then gives me the message, "Can't find the media for installation package for 'Zune WMDU Component'. It might be incomplete or corrupt."
Any thoughts or am I screwed?
in the links that the OP provided, there is a download for Zune 4.8. Just uninstall your normal zune and install that one from the downloaded files. Your library will be the same, it will star up normally.

Remember to BACKUP YOUR BACKUP, as uninstalling Zune will likely delete it.
I don't see the download for Zune 4.8 in my downloaded files. When I drill down all I get is the Prov, read me text file, restore bat and update bat. is it in the prov?
Ah - my mistake I must of forgotten that this download package did not include the Zune update
I followed this thread here when I originally updated. Its very thorough and helpful.
That did the trick. Up & running. thanks.

I am having two problems with the DFT ROM with this version 7714 and previous version, 7713.
Problems:
1) I downloaded and put in the password "www.dft.so", the rar file extract and then at the end I get 1 crc error with "wrong passord" on the FINAL.nbh file, but it still extracts and looks intact.
2) I went ahead and put my Tmobile US HD7 in boot rom mode (with HSPL) and flashed with the ROMUpdateUtility.exe. I kept getting stuck at certain percentage and had to recover by pulling the battery.
The above problems happened on both the DFT 7713 and 7714.
I have Windows7 X64. I tried it on X86 Windows 7 but still no luck with those two problems.
I would like to add that when I flash other ROM (i.e. Ansar's), I have no problem.
Please help.

I recommend that you dowload the file again. I just extracted mine without any CRC error. Although it looks ok you do in fact have a corrupt ROM image.

From opening up the rar, the file mentions:
"US_TMO_SIGNED"
Is there a different ROM for each US carrier?
In other words, the Venue Pro appears to be sold in the US only as an unlocked device, but there is a version for AT&T bands and a version for T-Mobile bands. Is the ROM the same for both, so this would work for both?

We need a full image dump and not a backup file. And yeah. This is likely the only way to hack the phone.

It's been sitting there for ages and I have went out to buy a omnia 7 but I really love the phone.... .... please keep me posted and tell me how to upload the image onto the phone so I have a working firmware again ^_^.
PM me or whatever ^_^
I'm so excited, DVP is no longer a dead phone and can have developments ^^

does anyone have the image file and can post it to a standard upload service (mediafire, fileserve, etc.). webseraph where did the link go?
I've got it saved on my computer at home, I can reupload it later tonight if people still need it by the time I get home. It came with a bunch of Eastern-language files, Chinese or Japanese I believe, old versions of x86 Zune software, old versions of x86 drivers, and the .ffu file.
Since I believe the .ffu is the ROM itself (hopefully not a backup, I don't know much about this stuff and my Dell Venue Pro that I decided to order is still with Fedex), I'll just upload that, and anything else can be sourced at a million other locations.
Thanks ! !

I updated my previous post, I've got no idea. The instructions weren't in English and I don't even have a WP7 device (yet). I believe it would involve using UpdateWP.exe though.
cheers ^^

It'll be nice to have a look at it anyways, thank you sooooo much !
Can you upload the file somewhere? I would like to disect it.
Here's a repost of only the .ffu from the original post:
http://www.multiupload.com/5YT27EHLZV
The original rar also contained instructions in Chinese, plus other folders:
1 start, which included the VC redist files
2 Zune 4.7, (x86 only)
3 ZuneDesktop UpdateTool 1404, (x86 only)
4 Tool FFU _FinalCheck_CheckPVK, which I believe is just a wrapper to run the UpdateWP.exe command I mention below. If anyone wants this folder too, let me know.
5 FFU-Deploy, which contained only the .ffu file I zipped up and reposted.
From my brief research into the matter, it appears that you can use Zune 4.7 with an older UpdateWP.exe with the following command:
UpdateWP.exe /ffu <filename>
Zune 4.7 and the older UpdateWP.exe are available all over so I didn't bother uploading those.
Machine translation of instruction file:
Brush process
Computer system XP SP3 (win7 system similar)
By folder order in 1234 to install
A: Click the folder to install the three files in 1 start
B: Download and install this zune4.7 me
C: install about 3 ZuneDesktop UpdateTool 1404 folder in the Setup-UpdateWP-x86.exe
D: Open the folder 4 Tool FFU _FinalCheck_CheckPVK in the file FFUDownload_ShareU.exe,
Tap Browse, find the 5 FFU-Deploy folder of the Rom file
Then began to brush machine,
1 cell phone off, remove the battery
2 believe the key to holding down the data cable to the computer
3 Wait a moment, the computer will automatically find the drivers. (Note to zune off, preferably in the Task Manager in the zune process off)
4 drive automatically installed after the point about brush machine software in the download, and then will begin to brush machine, brush machine program into the background of green.
After a good brush, the phone will automatically restart, like, Brush some tips that appear on the software window, all the way to determine the fine.
Brush, do not pull the data line.

Again though, this isn't my file, and I haven't tested it, so don't blame me if something goes wrong.

ACE will try it out ^^
Actually, can you upload the whole original .rar cause I can read chinese and want to flash my phone anyways cause its bricked so I just want to see if this will help and it looks like i need the whole package in order to do so ^^
The FFU works. It is 7704 and it is amazing how much Windows Phone 7 has advanced. Now the trick is to find a way to install an exploit before Mango that sets the interop unlock at every boot or something and then find a way to restore a backup. I am not really sure how the backup/restore process works. It did require me have the latest updates before restoring so it is possible it just restores non /windows files and folders. So if we can find something in the system that can provision the provxml files then we are golden. The problem is I have no idea what would do that in the system. If you dare to do what I just did, make sure you have a back up and a backup of that backup stored elsewhere as you never know if zune will delete your backup.

before some days extra+info get upadated WP10TP and also on Wp8.1. aftrer update we can't install extra+info to SDcard..now how to mod vcreg with extra+info.. for WP8.1 ..

no luck with the windows application deployment tool, error 0x81030120
I believe this error is related to having interop capabilities in one of the libraries included in your XAP.
is there another deployer tha would work? (i already tested WPV xap deployer, also, no luck with that)
i'm not correct, maybe it's impossible to move e&i into sd, sorry

Have you tried with wppt ??? Or with this modified version of deployment tool http://forum.xda-developers.com/windows-phone-8/development/tool-appdeploy-8-1-capabilities-t3158053

nah, tested both tools and nothing
I tried full FS access by patching an old version of CustomPFD to see if i could replace extras&info directly from phone memory.
I think some directories are hidden so i could not find the directory where the apps use to be installed.
However, i found a directory with the OEM apps (touch, extra&info, etc), but it seems that it's there only to be applied after a hard reset or something like that, so just replacing files wasn't enough. Extras&Info wasn't the only app with Interop Caps, but almost any app that is under settings has that cap.
So i unistalled touch settings and downloaded it from SD then i used MetroCommander to replace the SD files the old way (before CustomWPSystem was created, lol). Got nothing but an endless "Loading..." screen, but i guess i did something wrong.
But technically (someone correct me if i'm wrong) we can do Interop+Caps unlock using some other app from settings, right?
I'm pretty sure i've seen a settings app with a lot of capabilities in the manifest, not just InteropCapabilities, i don't remember exactly but it had something to do with SMS

Well , i think that we just have to remain with vanilla wp 8.1 until they fix wp10 annoying bugs, everytime i think i found a work around for a bug, there appear more bugs, my fault though, i chose the fast ring...
Now that Groove supports gapless playback, i'm considering going back to W10M (downgraded last week to WP8.1). But it's a hard choice, it sure has nice features but some bugs are just too annoying.
Did they fix the screenshots not appearing in Messenger/WA bug in 10549?
any updates on this? i have WP8.1 Update 2 and i'm having the same issues, not being able to install extras&info to SD card. i read somewhere on reddit (i think) that someone found a method that works currently, but searching around, i can't seem to find out the procedure..
