[Q] Nokia Collection not found - Nokia Lumia 800

Hi everyone,
Just got a Nokia Lumia 800 and I am not able to find the Nokia collection tab in the Marketplace.
I already have the Nokia drive (1.0) app installed, but can't seem to update it either. The marketplace finds the update, but says this app is not available on your phone.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Try to create new LIVE account and set it to your country. You should see the Nokia collection.
Or you can allways refurbish your phone to another firmrware and see if that changes anything. You can find tutorial here for example:

Might be a silly question..but still,
Will this reset my OS to the version that is bundled with the firmware?

You will choose what firmware version you want to flash.
You can downgrade, upgrade (if newer firmware is available) or just reflash the same version. Look at the tutorial, you will understand it.
You will loose all the data in phone, so backup what you need first.

I was talking about the Mango OS. Does the firmware package include the OS updates as well?

Sorry, my bad.
Phone's firmware do not include OS updates. Changing firmware won't change OS version in your phone.

[Q] HTC Mozart and Windows Phone 8 (or simillar)

Hello there, I would like to ask some questions. Before, I will explain about my phone:
HTC 7 Mozart PD67100
Unlocked from 7004 - 7392 using Chevron Unlock
was RSPL-ed
Running on bootliader: SPL-1.28.2250
Current OS Version and build: 7.10.7740
and one more:
I actually couldn't update from 7720 to 7740. Otherwise, I "Forced" to update it using cab sender and now it seems working fine..
main question: I would like to have the latest version of windows phone on my HTC Mozart. My Zune always says that I am having the latest version of OS: 7.10 (7740). If possible, I would like to avoid flashing..
Hope that someone willing to share a guide with me.
Thank you!

If you want to update to 7.8 (that's the last version of Windows phone for the Mozart) without flashing your rom I think you have to wait a couple of months, that's about when Microsoft said would have relased the new update if I don't remember wrong.
Anyway if you decide to flash your rom, xda is already full of guides to flash (i suggest dynamics 2.0 rom, the best 7.8 by now)
hmm I don't know. But, I've never been notified for any update to 7.10 8xxx from zune.
maybe I will need to flash it.. otherwise, can I get the data(s) back after flashing? like applications and saved-games?
thank you..
One more:
I believe you meant this one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1520352
is it an official ROM? I mean, can I update it later?
Thank you!
hey bro, any custom ROM is not official- they will not update.
there are applications available here that will enable you to backup and restore your data (apps, SMS....). contacts will restore automatically once you connect to your Microsoft account on your phone.
if you want to keep your phone stock and prefer to get the updates via zune, well.... keep it stock.
but if you want to tinker- you've come to the right place bro. explore and go crazy!

[Q] Phone Information

Hi,
I used the force update trick to update my Lumia 800 but when I check my phone information it says the software version is 7.8 but the OS is 7.10. it also says 7.10 when connected to Zune.
Am I missing part of the update still?
Thanks

Custom Version DT.NLD 8.0.0.303(CT.F01)

Hi all, just now I got a system update to Custom Version DT.NLD 8.0.0.303(CT.F01).
It showed up in settings-system update and showed this version with an T-Mobile picture, no details in text. Im still on Oreo 360 but now I have the custom version with it as well. Can someone tell me what it is?
Only difference after installing was a TakeAway app was installed and there is a app called Provisioning Message in the Tools folder.
Thnx in advance,
not sure but might be a custom version of the firmware provided by a local carrier.
if your phone is owned by a carrier, they might build these and provide these as updates.
Thnx for your answer, I think it is to but I wanna know what is in the update :laugh:
This is what is said about the update

Update to EMUI 9 "Custom Version" in "About Phone"

Hi, I recently bought a (brand new) Honor 8X from an online store (I'm based in Belgium). It would not upgrade to the new Android 9. It has rolled out in Belgium, so I'm kinda stumped my device would not update. I checked the system information and saw a line "Custom Version CUSTC432D1". I'm a noob concerning technical Android details, and I was wondering:
1) What does it do
2) How did it get there
3) Is this custom version able to prevent an update?
Thanks so much for your information!

Hi there
1. Would not update: EMUI 9 is still not officially available to everyone, even sometimes within same country. Hard to say why.
2. "Custom version" - this is strange, maybe its a network operator based version. Vodafone for example will add some default apps to the firmware. Not necessarily a problem and should stop updates
3. Try downloading "huawei firmware finder" from Play store and see if you can update with this one
4. What is your exact device model? This is important to know. The model numbers starts with JSN-xxxxxxx

Hey. For point 2) just for the sake of it, I bought another device (from a physical store this time, in my country), and the same Customer Version was on there. So I assume that's normal.. (Afterwards, I returned it)
3. I found firmware, but for my 'code' (JSN-L21C432CUSTC432D1B136') it only goes to 8.2.0.136
4. My build number is JSN-L21 8.2.0.136 (C432)
It's probably just not available for my specific custom version..
Thanks for the info!
EDIT: was too fast on point 3 and did find some firmware

Samsung Galaxy A9 Pro

Hello,
I got from my GF a Samsung Galaxy A9 Pro (Model Number SM-G887N, if you search for this one you will probably find A8s 2019 phone on SamMobile) with with a provider (KT) branding from Korea. This phone has currently Android 10 installed with the Build G887NKSU2CTI2. I would like to update the phone, but this didn't work on the phone directly.
So I thought about to remove the KT provider branding and install a clean Korean or European Software Build. I'm not new to flash phone (did this a few years ago, but since then a lot changed). I just wanted to ask if somebody can help me regarding the right Software and the possibility to remove the branding.
Can I remove the branding and install a clean SW from Europe/Korea? If yes, what for tools (Is ODIN enough?) and which SW would do I need? I guess there are tons of instructions but I do have a problem to figure out about the compatibility of SW and branding.
Thank you a lot
Android 10 seems like the latest version for your phone. Two OS-Updates done with that.

Hello Zentriks, thank you for the quick reply. I still get updates regarding security, same issue. Not possible to install. Apps also start to close itself after starting. This phone is a total mess. So I really would love to change the SW without any branding.
