Force update on my Venue Pro worked great however it killed my phone dialer, I hit tile nothing happens. Any suggestions. Went back to 7720 dialer works fine:confused:

Same thing happened to me. It's b/c you didn't have the language pack cab file in the folder where you run the update from. Download the correct language pack(s) into that folder and update it.

Wooo Fixed My Brick

So my phone was bricked after a bad restore and I thought that due to an OS re-install on my PC that I did not have any old restore points....I thought wrong, just found my nodo restore point from September, moved it from the backup location into my C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows Phone Update folder and convinced Zune to do a restore, I am running nodo 7.0.7390.0 as we speak!!!

Yay to No paperweights!!!! and also a huge sigh of relief as I can throw away my nokia 2120 I have been using now lol

I tried to restore my Focus S yesterday and my PC crashed (Went Blue Screen) in the middle of the update. I convinced my self that the problem was my C/ drive didn't have enough space to complete the install. So I started moving and deleting files guess what I deleted my restore file... :mad: I know I know I of all people should know better. lucky for me I make a system image once a week. After 14 hours of restore watching my Focus S hold paper down I Finlay got my backup file. I tried once again to restore with Zune and got the blue screen of death. Then I read in this thread about using the install tool to do the restore worked like a charm.

2 rules of thumb never I said NEVER delete your restore file and always restore your backup the same way it was made.

Just so you know, ever since upgrading to Mango, Zune doesn't detect my phone anymore either....

Thanks

Is this still a good update for the Focus Flash?

Gone through 2 phones and just got a new SIM. Still locks.
Just wondering if the ROM image is still viable for me to push to.

I tried updating my Lumia 900 to tango last night using this methed. I installed the tango update as well as the language files (English & Spanish) using the links to the language cabs in the tutorial post. Update was successful except I had all the problems you get from not installing the language cabs. I restored to my back up with no issues.

Anyone have a guess what went wrong for me? I may give it another try today.

Apparently even though the Lumina 900 in the us only shows two languages you still need all 22 language cab.

Worked perfectly on my AT&T HTC Titan.

Thanks for the step-by-step. I had put it off, but the disappearing keyboard finally got me so frustrated I couldn't stand it anymore.

Does anyone have any direct links to the files needed for this? I have 2 Titans that have all but been abandoned by AT&T and HTC at this point so I think I'm willing to do this over 'debranding' since that sounds like a nightmare!

I'm trying to do the 7.8 update via the tutorial. I followed the instructions and the whole process completed until I got this error:

Update device ea30826e - 3527d6f7 - c88b23c2 - 76e00133 Complete with error code: 8018004D, error message: IU (Image Update) installation failed on phone: No applicable packages.

Does anyone know what this means?
Oh, I tried to follow the instructions on the Support tool, but when I keep holding camera button after it powers on, it never shows the Connect to Pc screen

This worked great for my Verizon Trophy after installing the WP Support, thank you. Trying to update a friend's Titan now and it's not working. It never reaches the backup step, instead I get an error:

Error: SystemException: Firmware Device is null at wm7update.Program.UpdateDevice( IDeviceInfo deviceInfo, List`1 updates, UpdateType type ) at wm7update.program.Main( String[] args )

Any suggestions?

Updated my T-Mobile Nokia Lumia 710 successfully to 7.10.8858.136 after reading through tutorials and suggestions. I shared my experiences in the 710 forum: http://forums.windowscentral.com/lumia-710/215027-wp-7-8-710-t-mobile.html

After the update I noticed that some of the photos in my "Saved Pictures" album no longer show up. They were Bing backgrounds that I downloaded, so it's not a huge deal and they were backed up.

Are there other things I should look out for after the update has been installed to verify it went smoothly?

I tried updating my HTC Arrive (Sprint). I went through the update process and am not sure if it worked. My settings/about says I am running Windows Phone 7.5 OS 7.10.8107.79. Is this the most updated version (equivilent to Windows Phone 7.8)? If so, what features does this actually add because I don't notice any difference?

It doesn't sound like your update worked, youshould have seen a major change in your start screen and the latest version is 7.10.8858.136.
