[Q] Mango on HTC Mozart

I am actually BUZZING for this update, I reallllly want to update my phone, but I don't want to loose all my data!
But my question is, who else is excited?! And has anyone actually updated their device?! Upload some photo's!
I just updated my Mozzart this morning ... I haven't had any time to use it, I ll let you know how it rolls this weekend!
I upgraded yesterday, so far everything is great. I used the method on windows phone hacker, so I didn't loose any data. Overall very easy to do.
mango is so awesome!!
PS during the process I had to restart my computer a few time to get the update to show up in Zune software.

Oh right! Do many of the features work? have you come across any bugs?
Does that also mean you can update to the final version and keep data?
everything i came across works, except tweeter.
when the RTM mango comes, all beta mangos will need to restore back to nodo+ (3892), then update to final build. so everything you've done in beta mango won't stay. however most things done on wp7 are always backed up at other places (live, pc...), the only things i can think of that will be lost are game progress, and application settings.
and sms
I did
Updated a SAMSUNG oMNIA 7 AND NO DATA OST? ANYWAY? BACKUP IT BEFORE
works well
Yep got it running for me, had it going a few days.
Best feature has to be the fact you can't turn the phone off in your pocket!
Little video i made about it myself.

If you update mango by Zune,it doesn't remove your user date,but if you reset your phone ,it can ,by the way ,unlock your phone in 7008,and,Zune have to install in disk C

Lovely video dude! Are your games sideloaded or have you bought them?
Sorry guys, where I can find the Mango-beta rom for my Mozart?
I am a registered dev and I was able to flash it without the hack. I am having issues with playing music - after a while the phone crashes. I am guessing it is a driver issue. Apart from that everything looks great.
Tweeter integration works on the latest builds which arent public. Looks like mango is going RTM late august and will be released in september.
Hi Folks!
I also tried to get Mango on my Mozart (T-Mobile Germany) with the updater tool but after installing the 7401 Build I don´t get any notifications for 7661.
What´s the matter ??

I updated phone without problems. Only little problem was with my language - czech, after update doesnt work phone in settings, after setting phone language in english was everything OK
Nothing yet in Spain :S
If anyone is on an AT&T phone and installs this let us know if tethering works or not.
It would be nice if it's there in this update.
nothing here too in Saudi Arabia both in my HD7 t-mobile brand & HTC Titan UK...
Hello,
I think this update will start to be released next week (for all equipments)
Maybe HTC launches a new firmware update with this new build too.
Thanks,
Santos
I think this is just an HTC update. My OS version is still 7.10.7740.16.
@Rickgig, tethering worked before this update. You just have to pay for it.

The OS version on my AT&T HTC Titan is 77.10.7720.68 Your manual update seems like it pretty easy to do I was wondering if I wanted to try this then roll back how would I do that since your file don't have the version my phone has?
Also, do you happen to know if this new version or any newer version takes care of the random power cycling/reboot that occurs like 1 or 2 times every 12-18 hours? My phone seems a little better now that I uninstalled the HTC apps (except for the HTC version of Tango video chat software since that is made for the Titan) hope that these updates take care of that too.

Hey guys,
Just updating you all on this if you haven't already read the Windows phone blog today.
They have mentioned in their blog that this update and the future 'maintenance updates' will fix more than the change log just to maintain any issues raised by the carriers. However, these maintenance updates will only be released to carriers that ask for it. So if your carrier did not ask for this maintenance update or anything else in future you won't get these kind of small maintenance updates. I am going to manually update my phone today as mine is SIM free and my carrier will never get me any maintenance updates.
I will post back if I see anything noticably different. I would however recommend that if you feel confident, then go for manual update as your carrier might or might not have asked Microsoft for the update. The reason I understand is these maintenance updates once applied require your carrier to put their crap back on your phone. Some carriers happily will do it and others will take long time to re-do their crap on the phone, which means you get update later than the world. I do appreciate MS's approach regarding maintenance update, but it's a shame we have some lazy carriers supplying network to windows phone!
I am thinking of doing the manual update as well. Would you indeed be so kind to post the result? I am curious!

[Q] Sim free / Unlocked EU Titan - No updates?

Hi there,
I got a sim free / unlocked Titan today. It is the EU version, got a UK power adapter with it, but I am having problems updating the handset.
I assumed that it being sim free, I shouldn't have any issues updating it to Tango.
I'm currently on 7720 and no updates are being found by Zune.
Where do I go from here?
Would prefer to have the latest update if possible.
I don't currently have a sim card installed, would that effect it?
Thanks
Appears Zune isnt even attempting to go online to check, I disabled my net access just to see what it does. Just says phone is upto date. HOW DID YOU CHECK WITHOUT AN INTERNET CONNECTION. Aaargh
I already hate Windows Phone 7 and it's my first day.

Zune will use the phone's internet connection to check. I think part of the disconnect wifi halfway through to get the update trick was to force Zune use the telephone connection. Once you turn on flight mode on the Titan it will not find any updates anymore.
Oh and Titan unbranded UK here: No update.
Think i'm screwed.
Installed the 2.05 RUU today, still not finding any updates.
How can a phone be update broken? It doesn't make any sense.
what is 2.05 ruu?
there is a high likelyhood the upodate isn't officially released for all unlocked devices. so nothing wrong with your phone.
i read somewhere on xda people could update to tango using the disconnect trick. so i tried that and was lucky.
i went to 8112 first, then 8773 then HTC update.
good luck
Got it to update to Tango with the disconnect trick.
Interestingly, it states HTC Update for Windows phone in the update window of Zune. So perhaps that is why I was having camera issues before, it needed specifics.
Any other unbranded Titans recieved Tango
Just wondering if any one else has recieved the Tango update on unbranded Titan?
Mine was purchased unbranded and unlocked, currently with a Vodafone sim but as yet no Tango update! I've tried the disconnect trick several times and a factory reset.
I've decided to wait a couple of weeks before I use the cabsender as I previously "Walshed" my HD7 and had to make a gold card to get it back to normal.

Yeah please don't do cab sender with the current Tango ones. I think Tango is followed by HTC update and one of them via cab sender tends to break the camera modes. I've Euro unlocked, got my update yesterday. I've reset my phone, swapped ROMs and then went back on Euro and still this afternoon got the Tango as soon as I paired it with Zune. Probably a weekend worth of wait?

The disconnect trick got it working for me, only way the update would stick.
Flawless with the disconnect trick. I had to try 3 - 4 times before I got the timing right, but then it worked.
It seems some new drivers came with the HTC update that follows the Tango update. I have the impressions that the quality of the conversation sound is better now.
That was soooo painful:silly:
Managed to get first update to 8117, then it took another hour of trying to get 8773 which was thankfully followed by the HTC update:good:
I thought Tango was supposed to allow contacts to be exported to the sim card but I cannot find it, is that just a lumia option?

Hi!
after the 8773 update, you said there was an htc update. I just installed the 8117 and the 8773 , do I have to do the disconnected thing to get that update too?
Thanks.

I did'nt have to, the HTC update followed the 8773 one straight away! If you did not get it then it is probably worth trying the disconnect trick to try and get it.

Before the updates did you have any connection issues when using WiFi and 3G connection at the same time?
Did the update solved that for you?
Hey just wanted to ask (since everyone seems to be ignoring my posts), if you go to games hub and look at your avatar does it stutter? Or if attaching a file do you have ringtone listed? And if you go to people settings do you have export to sim?
I've got these questions because I've installed tango 3 times on my titan (1 cabsender and 2 via zune), and also when doing a hard reset, capacitive buttons won't work at all, and messaging hub would be corrupted. In other cases burst mode would simply wont work as well.
I'm back on 8107 with 2.5 bootloader because tango is a minor update and it really does these "damages" rather than improvements on my titan, so yeah I lived with 8107 for a few months, I don't need to export contacts or have static ip settings and have a stuttery avatar animations.

Official v7.8 now available on Zune

Hi Folks
Just informing you that Official Build 7.10.8858.136 (Windows Phone 7.8) is available on Zune for the HTC Mozart ...
1. At least in Australia
2. My phone is Telstra branded, not sure about other branded phones.
In my case, I had to force update the phone in Zune using the 'pull network connection' method.

why you would want a stock rom when custom is allways better? you can install your owns xap's and you dont have the carrier limits.
if you dont like somehow the rom in your phone then just simply install some other (e.g. dynamics 2.0 - its the same 7.10.8858.136. as the newest 7.8 update).

And I agree I've put ROMs on android hundreds of times but never wp7
And I'm doing it because they have the 7.8 update now and easyer to sell

Lots of new custom ROMS have had the same 7.8 update few months already.
you can see the rom name under "about phone".
Anyone from Malaysia got the update without forcing?
TQ
Only found one issue with the 7.8 update other than the lag issue launching off homescreen which is on both my phones that updated to 7.8.
720p video is most of the time ridiculously laggy... 1 out of 5 times trying to capture 720p it will be smooth but most of the time it runs at 2fps...
The irony? One of the reasons I swapped to the mozart was for the camera?
Anyone else have this issue? Will restoring to 7.5 through zune work?
And with the update, my telstra mozart connected to zune would not update until my partner and I swapped phones and reset them. The zune updated the mozart...

Hi! Maybe i can help!
There is a known bug with the Mozart capabilitie to shoot 720p. If you start recording a 720p movie in a very shinny with plenty of light environment you will a lot of lag on that! But if you record a 720p movie in dark conditions that wont happen. Try recording on 720p in a lighty environment, but before snapping the start button, cover the Mozart len with your finger and then start recording, after 2 seconds take out the finger to record what you want!
That happens with me, and im still on 7.5 (ultrashot rom), and will be here for a long time (super stable).
Only update by forcing zune.
And what about SVK/CZK? I still wait, try forced and still nothing

Lg g6 update help

Hey guys, I'm new to this.
I have an LG G6 VERIZON (I'm in the US- if it makes a difference) and I'm currently on an older update of vs98812b. My phone tried to update to vs98813a and it got stopped. I've noticed that some people are at 15 & 16. I was wondering if you guys think that I should do the update. Also if I hit update will it update me to 13 or will it bring me up to the newest one ? Is it worth it? I've noticed my phone has gotten slower and my bank app keeps popping up for no reason here and there and I'm not sure if it's because I need to update or not. Or if you think I should stay where I am.. Let me know what you think.
Thank you!!!!!!
