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!

im curious is to why when i go to the settings, about phone, software update... the phone says application software update has stopped unexpectedly, pls try again.
This has happened ever since I upgraded to xxki4...

You're the 136,794,308th person to ask this inane question on XDA. Accordingly, Samsung have advised there will now be no official ICS firmware released for the SGS2, ever. Nor will there be any source code whatsoever released (which means CM9 won't be progressing from its current alpha build status, also ever).
Are you happy now ?
Also, you made the Baby Jebus cry.

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?

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.

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).

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

zune wont upgrade custom ROMs. probably has to do something with the downgraded bootloader... i dont know.
It seems other 920 varients have an available 1232.5957.1308 updates from nokia. It supposedly has bug fixes and camera improvements. Unsurprisingly, the AT&T varient is notably absent, and I'm on AT&T, and I am a fan of bug fixes and camera improvements. While i'm sure there's a reason for the absence, i'm certain it's not becaue its not ready for public consumption. So I ask, WTF AT&T & Nokia?
What is the ETA for AT&T's 1232.5957.1308 update?
If you know how to use NaviFirm to get your updates, its now available through there. In regards to an OTA update, only AT&T knows. But one would think that it showing up on Nokia's update servers means its coming sooner rather than later.

You gotta clear your cache, in case you haven't. Otherwise NaviFirm always pulls data from your cache, which could be days old.
Just to be clear -- Flashing with update from Navifirm essentially performs a hard reset, yes/no?

Yes.
If you want to simply update and retain your current data that isn't backed up, you need to wait for the OTA.
Navifirm will erase it all and start you from scratch (or from your Windows Phone 8 cloud backup).
I've already installed it, I used the nokia updater.

Any one else running this update?

Just found out that you can unlock the bootloader with this update by tapping the build number 3 times.
Then developer options can be enabled.
Then OEM unlocking can be enabled.
What does this do for us guys?
It updated for me this morning, and I have yet to see much of a difference. Then again, I've been doing housework all day and haven't messed with the phone today.
Did some looking, the update was just the November security patch.
The bootloader unlock option was there before the recent update. You need to find the tmo folks on tinder and snuggle with them to get those tools to actually use that option.
Been 24hrs since I updated and have hammered device with no sight of the "Tetris stack" glitches. So on top of the security patch there must've been a kernel / graphic driver update.
good day.
The Metro variant just got an update too. Added a few features and included a few bug fixes. Haven't had time to really test drive it but it seems to be stabler, no screen bugs or data drops yet.
Edit: The Metro update also let us get into recovery now but nobody's had time to play with it much yet. So far we've got recovery, FTM mode, and safe mode, I think.

Yes the metro update actually fix my screen flicker. I tested minecraft that has screen flicker many many times while playing it. After the update, I played it again and no flickers so I am really happy about it.
AS for recovery, FTM mode, and safe mode - I had all those even before the update, actually.

Yeah, sorry about that, hope I didn't get anyone's hopes up. I was reporting what someone else had said they noticed but it was the same stuff we'd had access to before.
Hi does anyone has the T-Mobile Update.zip?
For some reason I haven't received the update where I am right now for my T-Mobile variant. Can anyone upload the update.zip and share it? I look everywhere I could and people have only uploaded the MetroPCS versions. This is the version I need TMO_Z981V1.0.0B07 I'm already on the previous one. Thanks ?

The Metro update was uploaded there but I don't think anyone has uploaded the T-Mobile update. I think they both got pulled temporarily because while some phones with issues were working better, some other phones without issues were doing worse after updating.

Thanks, the site is under maintenance, but it wasn't uploaded there, it was one of the threads I looked thru.

Yes, that's what I thought after I read in one thread that MetroPCS pulled the update. Waiting a bit doesn't kills? Feels great to be back in XDA again. I usually use XDA for learning and reference, I only have a couple of post but been around for awhile.
My z981's mfg date was October 2016, T-Mobile variant, I picked it up December 10th, when I realised my Nexus 5 was unsalvageable. I assume the update was pulled, as I am on 0B04, one page on T-Mobile's site says the update was set for a staged release between the 21st of November through the 19th of December, another page doesn't even show this phone amongst their active or testing updates..
If I receive an update notification, I'll pull the file, but I probably won't flash it myself.

I just went into the settings and found the software update and bam there it was. It's a really stable update. And after disabling every app I could the phone runs like a dream.
Anyone try charging this phone with a Qualcomm Quick charger 3.0?

Nice. The update never showed up on my device. I may reset it just to see, but I'm not concerned. I replaced the launcher from the start, disabled a couple of apps, but the phone works well enough for me as is. I mostly read and listen to music, so nothing demanding.
Still, a nougat update with an unlocked bootloader/fastboot would be a great gift from ZTE lol.
[edit] I backed up my music and files, and reset the phone, still no update. I won't worry about it 'till people start receiving the 'next' update, or root is achieved and someone makes a custom kernel/rom.

I don't personally own one, the default charger works well enough for me so far, though the phone supposedly charges significantly faster while off. I haven't tested this myself, but if it turns out to be true, I'd assume the kernel limits charging, which wouldn't surprise me in the slightest.
Can anyone load the update for me to download I cannot get my phone to update, doesn't show the option. TMO_Z981V1.0.0B07 is what I need

If I ever receive the update I'll pull it from the device and upload it to mega or Google drive. Not holding my breath, since it was probably put on hold for causing issues on some devices.
I shall greatly appreciate it if you can do it or anyone that updates and has the time to load it.
