If I flash my Lumia 710 with Rainbowmod 2.0 will I be able to upgrade to official rom later?

[aldovelco]

Hi, I am very impatient about the WP7.8 update and I found the Rainbowmod 2.0 rom which seems to be based on the os 8558 version.
My question is, if I flash my Lumia 710 with Rainbowmod 2.0 will I be able to upgrade to official rom later? and if I can do so, how would i get to the official room?
I am new to this kind of things and I'd appreciate some help or advices of any kind.

Thank you,
Aldo Velasco

You should be able to, but I never tried it. There's a program called NSS over at XDA-Developers that you should read up on before attempting to load the rom. To load the rom, I recommend using the Nokia Lumia 710 Downloader instead of NSS [Link]


NSS 0.47.0 Beta - Quick Install & Restore of the 710 bootloader - xda-developers

You probably didn't notice I was the same member who posted those instructions
I had to find the answer myself by taking the risk and trying it in person. Luckily it worked.

haha, oops! Nice job with the instructions however! If I saw your post asking how to do it sooner I would have responded with my notes on the steps.
