http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=12305042&postcount=124 this post gives you the tool you need to use to edit the specific registry entry.

After you do that, enter the Registry Key into the box, click READ to pull it (should come out like "GetString: ATT-US") delete everything in that box, and hit WRITE, close the app. Connect to zune, check for update, and it should start updating.

The problem is. I have 4.5 gigs of free space and it keeps stopping due to memory problems with the 805007B error or whatever. It reloads fine back into the OS and no bricking, but I dunno how much damn space this thing needs to do it.

Having an unbranded HD7 here in the Philippines and guess what?

got no updates. Still on 7008. :mad:
[Windows Phone 7 General] xmckinzie:
Correct. So if you want to wait until Samsung users start getting NoDo, then I say wait.
[Windows Phone 7 General] John973:
I unbranded my phone and updated it a couple of hours ago already
[Windows Phone 7 General] JohnTHedgehog:
HTC 7 Trophy, branded to Vodafone Portugal. Have only got the build 7008, for some time now.
[Windows Phone 7 General] mcorrie1121:
Are there any negative effects to unbranding the phone?
[Windows Phone 7 General] man in the mirror:
so, are we talking about we, again, gonna get no update even this time?
[Windows Phone 7 General] tiny17:
Odd, I did this exact thing the first few times to no avail. But this third time I tried it, it finally showed ATT-US. The phone is updating now! Thanks!
[Windows Phone 7 General] MartyLK:
That would be nice. But more or less impossible because that would cost so much money for AT&T to do that. They will likely continue to use the T-Mobile data spectrum for the T-Mobile branded phones out there.

But there is always the possibility of AT&T wanting to discontinue the T-Mobile spectrum and give incentives to current T-Mobile users to replace their phones with AT&T spectrum phones. Incentives could be a percentage off of a new phone or other things.
[Windows Phone 7 General] amtrakcn:
Anyone on AT&T received the update?:confused:
[Windows Phone 7 General] doministry:
Nothing for me here!
[Windows Phone 7 General] MrLeche:
How come I can't update mine? Mine was unbranded ever since.
[Windows Phone 7 General] tiny17:
This brought me up to 7008, not NODO - just so everyone knows.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Tim.Smith:
WPCentral is saying they've heard AT&T users will have a very long wait. I'm starting to get pissed off.
[Windows Phone 7 General] doministry:
Unbranded LG-E900 but no NoDo.
[Windows Phone 7 General] amtrakcn:
So AT&T will keep their track of blocking manufacture/system provider update:mad:
[Windows Phone 7 General] Daegalus:
Well, I am going to keep my phone unbranded just incase it gets an update sooner that way. AS reported before unbranding a Samsung Focus gets you to 7008, pre-NoDo but not NoDo.
[Windows Phone 7 General] eclipsisme:
Is there any way to edit (or see this value) with an HTC Surround?

I'd like to try unbranding mine but I can't find a way access the registry key.

Thanks.
[Windows Phone 7 General] xmckinzie:
HTC Surround may have another option. http://www.wpcentral.com/hack-unlocked-htc-phones-gets-nodo-now

Be bold and let us know how it go.
[Windows Phone 7 General] tiny17:
Anyone know if this is this a state side issue, or is everyone with a Focus getting this? Because I'm pretty sure a few people on here with Focus' got the NODO update, unless I read them wrong.
[Windows Phone 7 General] enoder:
Nothing here yet...HD7 Tmo
[Windows Phone 7 General] eclipsisme:
Thanks. I tired it and still no update. :(

Not even sure how to tell if it did anything.
[Windows Phone 7 General] FishFaceMcGee:
What phone do you have? The people that just unbranded their phones were AT&T Focus users who hadn't even gotten the pre-update yet.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Tim.Smith:
I did the unbranding so I could get 7008 at least. Hopefully that some how speeds up the process. With the rumors of AT&T dragging ass I have to do something.
[Windows Phone 7 General] ycavan:
same here, I got 7008 w/ my LG Quantum after the regedit.
[Windows Phone 7 General] FishFaceMcGee:
Well, because we've unbranded, it means that any delay between us getting NoDo is on Microsoft and Samsung, for better or for worse.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Tim.Smith:
I feel a little better about that.
[Windows Phone 7 General] sketchy9:
That's really not bad. Consider the Telus situation (not before next week and it will take up to 4 weeks to update all devices) or what Daniel Rubino at wpcentral.com mentioned for At&T-- possibly MAY or JUNE!!

[Windows Phone 7 General] FishFaceMcGee:
Me too. Before I got my Focus, I had a BlackBerry Bold 9000. It took AT&T a whole ****ing year from initial release to allow RIM to release BBOS5 for Bold 9000 users on AT&T.

But of course, because Microsoft was desperate to get carriers to support their OS, they let the carriers **** the customers over with their ****ty update policies.
[Windows Phone 7 General] TecShdw:
Well, looks like this at least gave me pre-NoDo...it's installing now.

As a follow up, the pre-NoDo went fine, I only have 3.97 GB avaliable and did not have any issues with the update.
[Windows Phone 7 General] moonshines:
yeah youre right. if the rumor lurking in the tmob forum is true, lucky for us with tmob branded wp7!

[Windows Phone 7 General] Crimson Lotus:
I'll say this now. Don't expect too much from the first update where bug fixes are the MAIN Priority. The mango update is where they focus on features. There is a change log for this update on wpcentral, you might wanna take a look.

Same here. Ive heard that they are updating EU before the rest of the world though

Off course 'cause 1.69 is NoDo ROM :D

But I flashed this ROM about 2 weeks, and I must say that the battery life is bad!

Flashing to another NoDo ROM but latest Radio (22.44....) will make bettery life better!

no update here. starhub - singapore.
[Windows Phone 7 General] smuook:
Maybe there is a reason why you haven't received your update yet and by trying to be slick and forcing an update by unbranding, you are going to screw up the update process on your phone. There is not just one portion of the update and you maybe bypassing something your phone needs. According to Microsoft:

http://www.microsoft.com/windowsphone/en-us/howto/wp7/basics/update-history.aspx

I don't know if this is related to the carrier or not, but why risk it? Is it really that important that you start cutting & pasting right now?
[Windows Phone 7 General] Andyh77:
I'm in the UK with an unlocked, sim free, unbranded Samsung Omnia 7 on o2 and I have had the update which installed oh so smoothly.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Halle:
From looking at the poll, there are only a small percentage of people who have actually gotten the uptade. And its now been well over 24 hours since the update was released.

No update on my HTC HD7 on T-MO. Theme doing the block thing?

Sent from my HD7 using Board Express
[Windows Phone 7 General] Halle:
Well then how do you explain that some people already have gotten the update in the U.K?
[Windows Phone 7 General] FishFaceMcGee:
Microsoft has said that it's a rolling update. Maybe I'm wrong, but I don't think you're the only person in the world with an unbranded phone that doesn't have the update.

Because it's not related to the carrier. Rafael Rivera found the code on the Microsoft Update servers that relates to Windows Phone Updates. The previous update excluded ALL Samsung phones after people found there were issues. Then when MS/Sammy fixed it, the re-released the update without the exception, but still following carrier instruction. If there was a problem with the update, the people with Omnias and Focuses:

a) Would have been complaining en masse when the update was released

or

b) Would be complaining now because something would have gone wrong with the pre-update.

Unbranding the phone does not remove its status as a Samsung device, as that's in IMEI data and other places that are not affected by a registry entry that says "ATT-US." Also, if there was something wrong with the pre-update for the Focus that would cause issues with the NoDo update, then the pre-update would have been blocked for all Focuses still.

So far I have seen neither and any issue I had while updating my Focus to the pre-update last night was identical to issues other phones had but didn't actually do harm to myself, my content, or my phone.

If you're not comfortable taking the risk, that's not inherently a bad thing. However, I'm no longer comfortable letting AT&T dictate that I must get all updates later than the rest of the world again.
[Windows Phone 7 General] tfouto:
they started to have the update at around 5 p.m. of yesterday.
[Windows Phone 7 General] kingjovius:
Just curious, do you have any benefits flashing it with a European rom? or just the possibility of faster updates?
[Windows Phone 7 General] gc48067:
Starting to see the no update available screen in my sleep now...entirely down to my child like anticipation.

Have a horrible suspicion that Omnia 7 and early release of update are unlikely to be featuring on MS's list given the issues last time round though.

Unbranded HTC HD7! Still no NoDo for me...
[Windows Phone 7 General] Halle:
I was thinking... is it possible that even if the phone is unlocked and unbranded straight out the factory, when you insert your sim-card, Zune (update process) recognizes the phone as that carrier-specific device? I was thinking of doing a reset of the phone without my sim card and see if the update is available after that.. I just wan't someone to tell me if it might work at first! :)
[Windows Phone 7 General] TeNsTrKe15:
i have to say that that might be an idea. i've never thought of it. and all that really is gonna happen is that if it doesnt work, just gotta reinstall apps
[Windows Phone 7 General] fiinix:
Well thats very odd i can say. Got omnia 7 with way to much info on it to be worth doing a reset. Thanks anyway saying omnia can get it. :)
[Windows Phone 7 General] saldawop:
The same thing happened with the pre NoDo update. No sign of it until I did a reset.Luckily, its a relatively pain free thing to set the phone up again...apart from app installation which is a bit of a pain,bit nothing major.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Peew971:
That's actually a pretty clever idea, might just work.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Jim Coleman:
Not forgetting, of course, that you lose all your app settings, all your game saves, and all the app data that doesn't sync to the cloud.
[Windows Phone 7 General] nok_fusion:
it will never work because the CID - = signature - of your carrier is in the rom of your phone,so even u do a hard reset the stock rom always have the same CID so the only way until now to have the update is to debrand it,or for HTC users change a registry key => http://blog.walshie.me/2011/03/23/h...-and-get-your-windows-phone-updates-htc-only/
[Windows Phone 7 General] Halle:
Well I can tell you guys, it did NOT work. TO bad...
[Windows Phone 7 General] efjay:
This platform deserves to fail. Such a minor update delayed till the end of April? Is this really Microsoft's plan to compete with the iphone and android? Can you imagine the delay when the major update hits later this year, will anyone with a carrier device actually see that update? Pathetic.

I won the phone recently..

No updates still :/
[Windows Phone 7 General] mkaan:
It's exactly what I was thinking. And before someone calls us a cry baby and comments "you won't be missed" (i wont miss this platform either) let me inform you that delaying such a minor improvement for this long plus having constant problems with device updates (not just samsung) will result in an utter fail. Actually it's already a fail... Thank god I still have my i4.
[Windows Phone 7 General] smuook:
My whole point is why bother? Other than you feeling special, what did the pre-update do for you? I guess I'll just go back living my life and get the update when I get it.

I wonder why you bother to go on XDA?...

I was on HD7 O2 UK unbranded to a 7008 europe Rom and wasn't getting the notification. I've installed a NoDo 7389 europe based rom and once I plugged back my phone to zune, the notification popped-up right away. Now on 7.0.7390.0
[Windows Phone 7 General] Halle:
Well I just tried this and it did not work for me..
[Windows Phone 7 General] nathantw:
I agree with you here. This update really should have been released (and not blocked by the carriers) when it was ready. In fact, this update should have been released to the carriers early (maybe a couple months ago) so they could do their testing on a number of different phones internally. After they signed off on the patch then Microsoft could then say "okay, it's ready for the public" and EVERYONE gets it all at once. This rolling deployment just makes people, the core customers, angry when they see some people get it and they don't.

What I find funny is that on Microsoft's description of what is new included the line "This month's updates..." as though they've been releasing a new update every month. If only.

The sad thing about this entire ordeal is that after everyone gets this new patch that the next one won't come for months later even though it's most likely ready. The reason? They don't want to get ahead of Nokia. I'm just speculating here but perhaps MS has a deal with Nokia that states that they'll have an exclusive with the newest features for a few months. At this point I wouldn't put it past them since they decided to wait until that HD7S was released before rolling out this current patch.

Microsoft says that the next update, Mango, is supposed to come out in the 4th quarter. That normally means next year (if at all) by the carrier's schedule. So in essence, Mango could be blocked by the carriers if it comes out next year because they're allowed 1 bypass. By then who will really care about WP7 except us?
[Windows Phone 7 General] ov2rey:
no update for me too :(
[Windows Phone 7 General] smuook:
I've been wondering that myself lately. It's not the same as when I joined in 2007. It's definitely not to whine and complain about things I have no control over... which is what WP7 forums seem to spend most of their time doing.
[Windows Phone 7 General] FishFaceMcGee:
Why bother? Because it means that when the update is ready to release in North America, I'll get it; not when AT&T thinks I should get it. AT&T has already taught me to not let them control update procedures, thanks to my experiences with my Blackberry Bold 9000, so being out of their update cycle and being in Microsoft's is good for me.

Who knows? Maybe AT&T will shock the world and release NoDo the second it's available for unbranded NA phones. I'm not holding my breath given how it took them a year to allow RIM to release BlackBerry OS5 on my Bold.

I would love to be able to be optimistic about the update process but no one involved has given me reason to be.
[Windows Phone 7 General] efjay:
You know what I actually want? Bug fixes. My download of PES is stuck in MP saying Check Install with nothing to install, no way to restart the install from Zune, only option is to hard reset. There is a known problem with the MP crashing, MS has effectively done nothing about it. There is a known issue with the Dell venue pro crashing with wifi, Dell done nothing to fix it. These two problems have been left unaddressed for months, what kind of user experience is that to provide to customers? Whats worse, I paid full price for the Dell but, its considered a carrier device. In the US there is no option to get an unbranded, unlocked device, the carriers have the market sewn up tight so they are the only option for a handset that works fully on their network.

So basically any way you turn you are screwed. And on top of it all if you ask any of these companies for help you get absolutely nothing. Its an amazing thing to see so many companies failing completely to give even the most basic of customer service. It seems nothing can change the corporate apathy towards customers these companies have and is ultimately why I think WP7 does not deserve to succeed, as it will just validate the abysmal practices of MS and their partners.

[Windows Phone 7 General] tfouto:
I have to disagree with you... Its better that some have the update sooner that all have the update later. It sucks that carriers can delay the update, but i dont think MS can do much about it. They dont have the power Apple has. And they need the most number of possible OEM and carriers available.

Next time if you want wp7 instantly update i suggest to get an unbraded or unbrand you actual one.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Halle:
Well obviously it does not matter if it's branded or not. Most people with unbranded phones still haven't got any update, me included. I am starting do doubt I will get this NoDo this month.

MS update procedure really sucks. :mad:
[Windows Phone 7 General] Crimson Lotus:
I'd rather deal with this procedure than rely on OEMs to release the updates. ;) Just look at the Nexus vs Other Android devices.
[Windows Phone 7 General] nathantw:
I actually went to a store (not AT&T) and purchased my Samsung Focus. Unfortunately it's still branded AT&T. I don't think there's a way to buy an unbranded phone in a store in the US. I can unbrand the phone through various means via the instructions on xda-developers, but I don't know the consequences of doing that (i.e. if the phone won't update down the line or if there are unseen problems). It appears that everyone is geting the pre-NODO update by unbranding the their phone, so at the moment I don't see a purpose of unbranding since NoDo actually has that patch built in.

Re-updated my O2 UK HD7 to Europe NoDo 7389 after my update notification from Zune, now on official 7390 about an hour ago. It is rolling out guys!
[Windows Phone 7 General] buffalosolja42:
Updates

I think that may be the benefit in getting a Nokia that they will rollout updates sooner which in turn will make people wanna get those over other providers, just my opinion but that makes the most sense to me at the moment of a partnership.
[Windows Phone 7 General] TOA Duck:
There is definitely a reason for unbranding, cause when MS pushes the update you will get it before everyone else on ATT will.

I have an HD7 with T-Mobile USA. I never received the pre-update so im still at 7004. When i connect to Zune, with Windows XP, i get a connection error...

"We cant create a connection from your phone to the internet. You can still sync contect between your computer and your phone."

I went to settings, and update, says that 7004 is the newest software. So i'm still waiting i guess.
[Windows Phone 7 General] tfouto:
yes, its better having even if with 1 or 2 months delay than never have or with 1 year...
[Windows Phone 7 General] __ow:
If that means that you've received NoDo, would you mind just verifying wether the DeveloperUnlockState and MaxUnsignedApp values still have the same effect? Ie. if we can still unlock to a degree in a Chevron-ridden world.

Unless you're devunlocked the old fashioned way that is.
