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!
I just updated my LG optimus 7 to 7.8 a few sec ago. here are the pictures to prove it and of course the link on how to do it (i cant post the link so just copy it in to your browser). So, after all, seems like all WP7 devices are getting this update!

GREAT! how about the MFG menu? can we still unlock the phone via the mfg? after 7.8 does it relock?

The phone can be unlocked after update. MFG still works.
Can't get my phone to update
Hi,
Thanks for the tips, however I can't get my LG Optimus E900 to update.
I have tried the force update method and also the manual cab method but the manual cab method backs up the phone and installs the cabs, then fails with an error saying no applicable package...
Any further ideas on how I can update my device? It's a European LG Optimus E900 model if that makes any difference.
Thanks

I have a European Optimus and i forced the update.Just follow the steps provided in the link.
Hi, thanks however I have tried the force update method several times as well as ensuring all the cabs are in as per the manual update instructions including ensuring the right language packs are there but still get exactly the same error as before.. no applicable packages... guess I'll have to give up for the time being and try again in a couple of weeks or so...
E900H: Update went smoothly, even if I had to use the disconnect trick (force update). I had an Internet sharing option form another ROM, and it was not removed for the simple reason that when you use an other carrier ROM, it's this one that's get updated, leaving all the functions and features like they were before.
Unlock is removed by the way but seems that you can get it back with MFG.
I hope also that SIP (VOIP) is now available with 7.8 because it's what I am really missing from IOS or Android!
What has 80072FA8 error or just no update found!
On this time I tried a long time update with disconnect trick. But... no updates.
NOW... from FIRST time update was found!
Solution:
yeah... first of all good things happen to UK. So we will use UK proxy.
Go to Settings - mobile network , then edit apn. In "APN, Username, Password" I typed my provider settings. In "Proxy server/URL" type 109.169.40.229 and in "Proxy port" type 8080. Here Done.
Next step: in computer STILL connected internet, in phone wifi is disconnected.
And last step: in Zune click update. Waiting about ~2 minutes, because proxy is very slow.
Result:
Thanks for UK proxy :laugh:
Got it! from Colombia with a euro open optimus7.
Tried starting from 2 second of wait between push "update" and disconnecting internet, incrementing by half seconds every step, I got it at the 6th attempt, with 4,5 seconds between click "update" and disconnect internet (I disconnected from internet pulling out the power plug of the ethernet hub connected to my computer)
Good luck to everybody, I go to enjoy my new WP7.8! ..and to update my sign
Edit: I got 3 updates, the first, left the phone still with WP7.5, the second too, the third effectively updated the phone to WP7.8, the right update have this build number:
7.10.8858.136
Plugged it in, surprise surprise update available
Country:Hungary
Carrier free

i was lurking online stores for a new wp8 device but suddenly something told me, y u no check xda?
so after many attempts, force update worked and currenlty being installed on my solid rock e900!
thanks 4 saving me 300€ xda & friends ! :good:
Just installing!
Just installing the update now.
I have a German LG E900, running on a UK Talkmobile (MVNO of Vodafone)! No wonder I had to force update!
I tried loads of things, and on the verge of giving up, when I used the UK Proxy tip, earlier in the thread. (Even though I am already in UK!)
I also noticed by doing that that I didn't even have an APN.... maybe that had something to do with it.
Anyway, the FIRST time I used the UK proxy, it found the update. However the update failed because I didn't switch the internet back on my laptop.
So...
1. Switch Wifi off on your phone, but leave data on (using UK Proxy as earlier in thread)
2, Internet ON your PC/Laptop, then open Zune and check for updates. If no update is found then carry on to step 3
3. Click update again, then after 3 seconds or so, disconnect internet from your PC
4. repeat steps 2-3 until it finds an update.
5. Once it finds an update, make sure you switch the internet back ON your laptop/PC, otherwise you'll have to repeat all over again!
Thanks to everyone for the tips. Good work. I assume my phone will be working ok, I will post an update if any problems.
Cheers
My LG E900 now are Windows Phone 7.8 (OS Version 7.10.8858.136).
Updated by tweaking server with disconnecting router cable 5sec after clicknig Update button .
Enjoy!
i keep getting an error saying it cant search for an update, i tried two different computers, no luck, i tried the force update by switching off wifi, still no luck. Can someone help? thanks
I also try to update my phone.
First I tried with the cable trick. This did not work. I always got the 801812DC error which is refering to not be able to create a backup.
I hard reset the phone as recmmended but no result.
I checked the back up directory bt nothibg was in.
I tried on a fresh PC.
I tried with the tool from windowsphonehacker, the so called seveneighter.
I tried different USB ports
I tried different USB cables.
All are giving me the same 801812dc error.
Is there any other possibility? I also contacted LG but as I bought the phone as a used one I have no official bill. Therefore I can not prove it is not already out of warranty.
Please anny suggestion would be helpfull.
I had the same error when I update to 7.5. At this time I downgraded via a cab file from teh forum and then everything as working normally via Zune.
It's just time temping and patience. Beleive me, but if you have no patience, try to use this tool: LINK at your own risk!

This process does work! just a few extra notes on my experience
I have sim free UK LG E900 with Giff Gaff sim
For a successful upgrade process I had to;
First delete the giff gaff APN info and create a new apn with just the IP address and port info on page 1
I then had to reboot phone with new apn info
The timing of disconnecting the internet from the windows PC is critical , I have a laptop, with a combination of Function Key and F11 I can disable wireless pretty much instantly , if you disconnect to soon you get the update service is not available error , if you disconnect to slowly you get the Phone is upto date no update required problem , it seems to be somewhere between 2- 3 seconds ( I used to old 1000, 2000, 3000 counting method :silly: and it is somewhere between 2000 and 3000)
In total I had to update 3 times (as per previous post ) in order to get 7.8
But now thanks to the above technique I have a LG E900 at Windows 7.8 :good:
Hey.
I got a notification to update my device this morning so I connected it to WiFi and let it download.
It was very slow for some reason and at about half of the download I had to go, I left the WiFi range and it stopped the download with a message something like that "cant connect to the server please try again", so i tried again and it said that I have the latest update already installed.
Then i tried with KIES, it found a firmware update but failed to actually start the update after the download.
so now i have 4.2.2 and OTA says that the latest update already installed.
I have tried to clear cache, delete all in google service framwork, revert updates for all google stuff, nothing so far
Last thing i want now is to flash it, can I do something to fix this?
The device is Galaxy S4 GT-I9500, stock rom not rooted
Thanks for your time
Same here my friend, I hope someone can give any advice on this.
Is there an easy way to get it? I tried the firmware finder app from the play store and it's still not working. I show the updates available, but when I try to send to updater it keeps bringing up that notice saying I need to go into my wifi and change proxy to localhost and 8080, even though I've already done that. Is there any other way I can get the nougat update?
I'm having the same problem I can't update to any nougat firmware I'm on c636b191
See my post in the OTHER thread you created.
You must update to b200 via dload and then boom u get nougat update
Hi, UK Honor 7x owner. Had it direct from Honor when it first came out.
I was on BND-L21C432B101 when I first bought it and the only update I could get to update in Huawei firmware finder was the B102 update - I did that update a good while ago and never got any updates via the official update checker and no other update in firmware finder was OK to install via the "check firmware access" .
I have been hitting check for updates many times over the last week but no show. So feeling reckless I set firmware finder to full OTA only and the Oreo update was listed - checked via the "check firmware access" and it said it was OK to install. So set the auto DNS-VPN option and the phone updater picked up the full Oreo OTA (2.47gb BND-L21C432CUST432D2B330 (8.0.0.330)) and it downloaded fine, did a verification OK, then some other check that seem to fail - but I disabled the Firmware Finder VPN and hit to check again and all OK, reboot and it did the update and now on Oreo
Oreo works fine. My impressions (note I use nova launcher prime so my home screen looks and works the same as before).
Pretty underwhelming, 3 advantages. 1) latest security update. 2) face unlock (but it's a bit hit and miss) so finger print unlock is still the way to go. 3) Nav bar hide function - but a bit clunky as it doesn't auto hide. 4) treble support but no really solid ROMs to try yet so a bit niche
And that's about it! So if your stuck without Oreo at the moment then don't get too stressed out unless you absolutely can't survive without the latest security update.
I had heard H7 Oreo was treble compliant - and a checker says it is but not seamless updates (two partition requirement).
Cheers
So does it all work as expected then mate? Just downloaded it via your method, haven't installed yet though.
EDIT: No worries, works like a charm. Thanks man.

Make sure you are running the VPN in firmware finder, should have no problems then.

I tried the auto and manual through DNS and still download failed. I also tried the in-app proxy and still fails to download. But when I press on download from the FF app, it's downloading fine. But I'm not sure how install it that way.

Hi, I tried to update through manual and auto DNS but it keeps saying download failed. I tried to download the package directly but I'm not sure how to install it. It shows no option. Do you happen to know how to do it?

Suspect you would need to use a custom recovery after the update has been extracted. I can only point you at my original post for doing it the way I did it. Using the auto-dns VPN option worked for me. I assume the firmware finder servers must suffer some overload sometimes perhaps? Perhaps try at a completely different time of day you have tried before? Are you using mobile data or home BroadBand WiFi?

Any of you tried connecting into a VPN whilst tether to this device?
I know Samsung devices won't allow you to when data savings is enabled, but I can't get it to work on this device.
Tempted to unlock the bootloader and put LineageOS but I've read it reduces the battery life significantly
I've found an update to 8.0.0.331, but that is for the L21C10. Not sure what the difference is compared to the L21C432
