[7 Mozart General] Infuriated-Germ:
That seems to be updating people from 7004 to 7008 who previously couldn't get the 7008 update. Only a very few people seem to have had success moving from the 7389(RC) to 7390. Even those using unbranded handsets aren't seeing the updates.

MS are world class experts at pissing off there customers
[7 Mozart General] walshieau:
What I posted was to remove the operator part of the updates, MSFT still region block updates. Which is why some are having success with German VPN providers.
[7 Mozart General] Infuriated-Germ:
OK Guys ... finally managed to get my Mozart updated to NoDo.

Used the intructions from here (lots of unsuccessful reports for Mozart apparently)

http://pocketnow.com/windows-phone/force-wp7-nodo-update-for-some-unlocked-phones

Lots of users also reporting success over on the Omnia forums with some more giving some handy tips

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1011663

I only used the first link & followed it precisely.

Also before making the first VPN connection I flushed the DNS cache on my laptop to remove stale entries (from command line type "ipconfig /flushdns")

Also when Zune presents the update and you get to "Step 2", you need to disconnect the VPN connection and browse to google on a browser otherwise it just sits at 0% and fails (because it has the VPN gateway metric sitting in your PC's route table with a lower value than your proper default gateway).

1st Attempt failed.

2nd Attempt found the update and failed because Zune stopped responding and crashed (because I disconnected VPN too early ... before "Step 2" on Zune)

3rd attempt Success and kept ALL my settings

For the sake of making it quicker (whole process took 45 mins for me) remove all media (mp3 & Videos etc) from your phone or your backup stage (on Zune) will take that much longer.

Success

I did my phone today using Walshies blog instructions for debranding and then for getting NoDo. Worked like a dream.

Pro = I has NoDo

Cons = No more sideloading apps. Every side loaded app I had requests deletion when run now.

Overall I'm a happy little vegemite. :D

Thanks Walshieau, great stuff, from you and the Chevron team.
[7 Mozart General] rekoji:
Dude don't scare me. I have done exactly according the instructions and everything worked perfectly.

My Mozart got an February update first, and after updating to 7008, it is now preparing to update to NoDo.

Most of my apps are sideloaded, it would be hell if I had to install em all again.

[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] CC Lemon:
Firefox 4 was released for desktop and a mobile update was released today. I'm still messing around with it, but really liking the mobile stuff so far. I think I prefer chrome for desktop use, but may convert to firefox just for the mobile stuff.

You can set up a sync between the desktop and your phone so that you can immediately view tabs that are open on the desktop version. It's a lot like chrome to phone, but MUCH smoother/quicker in my experience. Chrome to phone always seemed to have a bit of a lag that made it annoying at times, so I'm definitely liking this so far.

At the very least, it's worth a try, even if you've used previous versions.
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] dLo GSR:
I like it, but still no flash support :(
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] catfarm:
Agreed, its double tap zooming is better than any other browser I've tried on Android.
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] jiggytom:
No flash support in firefox? I thought there was....
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] Clienterror:
Nope, just tried youtube it's a no go.
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] toughbax:
They have also said they don't have a time frame of when/if they will add flash support...

Seems very odd to me. I like the fact I can sync the browser with my desktop but without flash support its almost useless.
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] jiggytom:
Thats funny, I use optionshouse.com which is a flash based trading website (account needed) and it doesn't work in any browser but firefox...
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] Swiftks:
Yeah, I just uninstalled it... feel let down, b/c Firefox is my go to on my pc. Mobile version bites though. After syncing all my bookmarks to DolphinHD & flash mod, I'll be sticking with that.
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] Incognitum:
I'm a LastPass user, so Dolphin has been my only option, but I just saw they released an add-on for Firefox so I downloaded it to give it a try. I found Firefox supper buggy. It was laggy navigating menus and settings, and jittery when inputting text, (though seemed snappy enough loading web pages) and I had 2 FCs inside of 20 minutes... Is anyone else having similar problems? I'm running CM7 PB2.

Try Opera and Miren :)
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] infernodash:
I've tried them all, but I'm going to have to strongly recommend Miren Browser... It's fast and practical and it looks good. I downloaded Dolphin and I deleted it after an hour, the design did not suit me at all.

i use dolphin mini...
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] necosino:
Skyfire for me.
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] loztboy:
I have been using the new opera and think it's very well suited to the speed of our LTE. It renders pages very quickly and has a pretty clean interface. I will be installing the new firefox browser to give it a run, although it's a release candidate.
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] raider5oh:
I have been using SkyFire for a while i find it to be the best. I just tried Opera Mobile and i had problems with the scrolling lagging. As for Firefox its fast but lacks Flash so that's a no go for me.

[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] lorijuan1024:

Firefox is ok but it takes a long time to load some pages. It feels more like performance versus my connection speed.

Dolphin and Dolphin HD are alright but they feel to me like they would be better suited for a tablet.

I just downloaded Miren and Ill give it a go, I was using the stock browser till now though.
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] uthinkisay:
dolphin mini is the ticket for me

The latest version of Opera Mobile (NOT Mini) is the shiz. Now has Flash support and is super smooth. Don't have any problems loading full sites on it.

[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] xameius:
I grabbed the stock (Android stock, not sense) out of the SDK Emulator and replaced the sense browser with it (Root Explorer etc). The bookmark icon is messed up graphically but still works, and long-press to select text is broken (but you can still use the menu).

I get the ability to close all the windows (not leave the last one open) and keep flash support. And no more annoying full-screen unless I trigger it manually.

I loved opera with a manual config of the user agent via opera:config... however... i noticed a week ago or so that LTE is capped at 1.5 mbs on it... Basically 3G is faster.
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] psufan5:
On LTE for me - skyfire outperforms every other browser for me. Again, thats just for me. Flash perfectly smooth even on hulu, pages load about 3-5 seconds faster than dolphin.
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] AlpineM3:
It is fast, but flash isn't supported and I hate the checkerboard pattern when scrolling down fast....it has potential, but not the best yet....at least for me

[Optimus One, P500, V General] deadboltblues:
My friend just rooted and flashed CM7 2.3.3 onto my new Optimus V. He handed it to me and told me to reboot it as he had just fixed all permissions. I played with it for a bit before I did so and it worked very well. After the reboot, my phone reboots itself before you can really access anything. You get enough time to unlock it and attempt to do anything but it then reboots itself. I tried holding power to reboot in recovery. It starts the process but then auto reboots back to the lock screen. If you let it sit, it reboots itself. It won't give me enough time for a usb connection.

The only thing I can do is start it holding HOME + DOWN VOL + POWER. This takes me to a blue screen that says:

Fastboot mode started

udc_start()

I plug in the usb cable and it says:

-- suspend --

-- resent --

-- portchange --

-- reset --

-- portchange --

fastboot: processing commands

My Win7 netbook apparently has no usb connection to the phone. This was the computer the whole thing was done on.

I'm a definite noob on all this since my last phone as of three days ago was a Samsung Hue. I also have next to no experience on anything linux-y, but I'm really good at using Google to solve any and all issues I have, heh. I'm at a dead end!

Anyone got any ideas?

Thanks for your help!
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Zerobarat1:
I suggest you start from scratch . What this means ?

Go into Emergency mode and install a stock 2.2 firmware . You can find the instructions to that here on XDA ;) also a stock 2.2 as well . Then if you still want to play just root it yourself with z4root ( not sure if optimus V can be rooted the same way ) and then install a custom recovery and you can try Aosp's CM7 .

One more thing don't let others tinker with your phone . You can't really place them liable for ruinning your phone as they have no legal obligation. Do it yourself after you read the forum well to understand the processes ;).

Cheers
[Optimus One, P500, V General] deadboltblues:
How can I get into Emergency Mode?

I was watching him do the whole thing so I could learn from him. This is the 5th phone he's done and I have faith in him. I learned the process he used and I understand it. We went over sever walkthroughs to get it done, but this LG is a new animal. I'm sure we went wrong with the clockwork version, but now I can't even correct it.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] deadboltblues:
Emergency mode (UP VOL + BACK + POWER?) also takes me to the blue fastboot screen.

Sound bricked?
[Optimus One, P500, V General] deadboltblues:
Looks like i may have to take it back to the store for an exchange. This boot loop seems irreversible.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] overthinkingme:
Reflash a recovery in adb. The damage isn't great.

Power + volume down should get you to the boot loader though.

Besides, rooting voids your warranty.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] deadboltblues:
Phone won't accept recovery flash. Just reboots. I have a 20 second window of usb recognition before reboot. Tried reboot in emergency mode, boot loader, and recovery mode. Just takes me back to blue fastboot screen with error message. The phone is useless in the 20 seconds it runs and I have no usb connection otherwise.

I know it voids my warranty, but this is a 3rd party store that doesn't know better. Besides, it's not like they can check anything since the phone won't budge in any direction.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] sdarling1974:

[LG Optimus 2x] MeX_DK:
Is there some way for me to reduce the text size that that app used. Because I find that even a normally sized text takes up a lot of space on my screen. Initially i hated the SMS threaded view and preferring the more classic way to deal with texts.

But the HTC Desire managed to make it acceptable, and now im back to starting to being annoyed by it since I have to scroll to actually see the last text or the one before that >_<. So....

Is there anyway to fix this and remain native, or would i be forced to go for another messaging client?
[LG Optimus 2x] Escobarretje:
I would go for another client like GO SMS, ChompeSMS or Handcent. GO works great here and don't has those big letters!
[LG Optimus 2x] MeX_DK:
Well while I may be forced to change to another client, I can live with that.

BUT if possible I actually prefer to fix my "issues" natively before going for another app. Not becuase I lack app space, but more because thats how I am.
[LG Optimus 2x] spawndk:
use Go sms instead - besides the ability to set fontsize individually theres thons of other nice settings to tweak which the stock sms client doesnt have. And also nice themes to brighten up the experience alot.

Well so far Go SMS might look like a keeper. IF ONLY I could actually get it to show the contact images and not just show blank "faces".

Anyone know a fix to that?
[LG Optimus 2x] MeX_DK:
My problem is only with the texts. So I am trying out Go SMS for the time being. I don't feel the need nor desire to mess with the LCD density as I have already played around with LPP to get 5 rows in my app drawer as well as at least +1-2 grids both vertically and horizontal on the "home screens".

Ive flashed many HD2's and i do know what im doing.

Ive tried various different NAND builds just to make sure it wasnt just 1 certain build. Ive started over with Task29, reloading MAGLDR, etc.. and nothing.

The odd thing though is that i can flash to Windows Phone 7 and Win 6.5 RUU (custom and stock) with no issues. Phone works completely fine with these builds!!
