Prince Charming Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 My Optimus 7 has been inspected, repaired, and is now being returned by LG. Wonder if it will come back with the Nodo update on it (it's carrier-free), the 7008 it had installed anyway, or 7004 release build? Or...prerelease mango build :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BajiRav Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 I just had a thought, hasn't AT&T effectively blocked two updates back to back? whereas Microsoft said that operators can block one but can't block the next update. AT&T can "test" these forever and never release them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

George P Global Moderator Posted March 30, 2011 Author Global Moderator Share Posted March 30, 2011 There are reports that Rogers up in Canada is pushing out the NoDo update to the Focus, anyone up north with one notice anything yet?

~Johnny Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 Got it on a Vodafone Branded HTC Trophy last night, and I forced it on my Orange Omnia 7 using the delightfully simple method at the top of this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1012189 (Although the update for Orange phones has apparently started Delivering anyway... though I haven't got it on my Orange branded Mozart, which I'll probably force in a bit) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lalalawawawa Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 Zune started updating itself... Wait for it... Wait for it... Goddammit! It says it cannot find some file... Gonna try reinstalling Zune. EDIT: Damn, I'm getting ****ed. Unbranded phone, and still no update. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just finished updating my Omnia 7 on 3UK. It's nice to be able to force the update without having to resort to hacks :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phunkymunky Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 i like it! marketplace is now solid as a rock. apps are loading much quicker and the overall feel is just more responsive. again, HTC 7 Trophy with Vodafone AU. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lalalawawawa Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 Disabled the connection and now the update is available. This is stupid. Something is messed up with Zune, definitely. Finished installing, the whole process took about 10-13 minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

astroXP Posted March 31, 2011 Share Posted March 31, 2011 Here are the steps to get the NoDo update with no hassle about unbranding and even risky tricks: 1. Start Zune 2. Turn off Data connection and Wifi on the Phone 3. Connect the Phone with the PC (USB) 4. Start the update search in Zune 5. About 3 seconds later, disconnect your PC from the internet (Turn WLAN off). 6. Zune finds NoDo-Update. Press OK. 7. Connect to the internet again and install the update.

George P Global Moderator Posted March 31, 2011 Author Global Moderator Share Posted March 31, 2011 The Zune update check is probably a 2 step one, first being to actually check if there is a update on the server (which there is) then it checks your phone to see if it's ok to get it. The fact you turn off the connection a few seconds after you start the update process means it never gets to check if your phone is "officially" green lit for it or not. That's my guess anyways. Normally the update process should just error out if you do that but I guess it's a bug/loophole in the software. This is just what I figure, have no proof, but I think it makes sense at this point.

Agreed and it's that "green lit" part of the process that I'm interested in. The update is available for my phone company and Zune is obviously aware of that so how do they decide when certain customers will get the update? Do they intend to use a similar process for future updates? It's not a big deal to me but it would be interesting to know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems they're rolling it out in batches, which is why some on the same carrier/phone get it while others haven't yet. Dunno what the batch/quota is though. Could be a few k at a time and once those are updated they roll out the next batch a bit later. Or it could be a combo of that and a range of phone numbers or something of the sort that limits it from everyone getting it at once. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HawkMan Posted March 31, 2011 Share Posted March 31, 2011 I did it in Norway just now. just click the wlan switch on your laptop just right after it starts searching. then reconnect after you click update and get the update applications up.

Got completely fed up of waiting and all of the magic "you can get it this way" fixes that have come out (and worked for other people) and none of it working Debranded my phone (removed the reg key holding "TMO-GB") after about an hour of trying the "disconnect network"and got the Feb 2011 one instantly. Tried the latest trick and got Nodo first try. Oh, and just so you'll have to read it one more time: Your phone is up to date 7.0.7004 :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slysy Posted April 1, 2011 Share Posted April 1, 2011 I've just installed NoDo on my 3UK branded Omnia7. The firmware was updated from JID/JIC to JK1 as part of the process. So it looks like NoDo includes the JK1 update firmware update for Omnia7 owners :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
