Just checking to see if anyone on ATT in the U.S. has been updated to 7.8 through Zune without Zune trick? Using L900..
I hope this isn't true... I changed from my Skyrocket to this and now it is being updatable to Jelly Bean, and that's starting from Gingerbread. I'm not really interested in Android, and was hoping to make the best of my Lumia 900 as it is only a few months old and came out not quite a year ago. The Skyrocket is older... But, I'll be hopeful for now I suppose...I read a few messages over on the AT&T forums that apparently AT&T is not releasing the 7.8 update to those of us who bought devices prior to the announcement of Windows 8.That's what people are being told when they call AT&T about it.I'm getting to the point where I've pretty much had it with both Windows Phone and AT&T. T-Mobile and a Galaxy S III is looking quite attractive.Found the thread...Windows Phone 7.8 Update - Page 3 - AT&T Community Support
Actually 8862 fixed the issues from 8858. 8860 was a build that dealt with Quartz and some Google specific changes. The issues were dealing with the rendering of Live Tiles specifically conditions that could cause them to not function correctly and/or eat data.
Just some info. Had to return my 900 for a warranty replacement. Mine had the 7.8 upgrade on it (had to do the Zune trick). When the replacement came it didn't have the 7.8. Tried the Zune trick and obviously didn't work. So I call AT&T and was transferred to tech support. Was told the 7.8 upgrade has been pulled and is no longer available due to numerous customer complaints of issues with the upgrade. She had no idea when or if the upgrade would be available again, if at all. So if you have AT&T and you didn't get the upgrade you won't. This probably explains why I had to return my 900 in the first place. Thanks Microsoft and Nokia. Due for an upgrade in September, so it looks like iPhone for me.
