Even after a reboot of pc and phone I show February update. No vpn connected at all now. unbranded focus usa.. You guys think I should risk it or is there a way to clear the cache and retry?

edit: Let me know how that goes for you eqzgkxokwa ;) :)
[Windows Phone 7 General] WithinRafael:
Does anyone have the update cab for NoDo? It's in multiple delta pieces. Never mind.
[Windows Phone 7 General] bennyj71:
How do I go back to ATT branding? When I rebrand it show 000-88.
[Windows Phone 7 General] outofelement:
Two Updates, One Focus, No Waiting

Got the Pre-Update installed. NoDo is now in progress as well.

SWEET!

Anyone happen to catch what the value of the Focus reg key was BEFORE overwriting it? I forgot to grab that.
[Windows Phone 7 General] werD:
Rock On!

I believe it was "ATT-US" .. no quotes
[Windows Phone 7 General] SuperSlacker:
Focus on Rogers in Canada. With original Op ID in registry (ROG-CA), my phone is up to date at 7008, says Zune.

Changed Op ID to 000-88 (no reboot required). Zune now says March update available! No need to use the PBK file or change wireless settings.
[Windows Phone 7 General] spincel:
I guess the value should be AAA-BB which AAA is abbreviation of the operators like ATT or TMO, and the BB should be the region which the operators are located, like US.
[Windows Phone 7 General] creamhackered:
It's ATT-US
[Windows Phone 7 General] toza:
Question:

"Turn of 'data connection'..."

Does this refer to turn it off in the phone's menu (Cellular->'Data connection'),

or kill the VPN connection to the PPTUIP Hungary thingy?:o

I timed the "no connection error" time, and it is 24 sec.

As said in the post #1, i have to turn off data conn, at 23.5 or 23 sec.

Still no success...:o
[Windows Phone 7 General] creamhackered:
It means turn off the data connection under cellular
[Windows Phone 7 General] WithinRafael:
String is ATT-US
[Windows Phone 7 General] outofelement:
What was the Focus key value BEFORE the update?

One vote for ATT USA and one vote for ATT-US.

Can anyone definitively confirm the value of the reg key prior to unbranding?
[Windows Phone 7 General] WithinRafael:
It's ATT-US. Trust me.
[Windows Phone 7 General] spincel:
So if we re brand the phone back to original on Tmobile, the key should be TMO-US right?
[Windows Phone 7 General] WithinRafael:
Yep, exactly right. There's no real pattern though, but I've checked TMO and confirmed that string. I'll find my list of codes and post em.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Daegalus:
Hmm, anyone know what the 801812DD error is? I get my Focus to the point of it backing up, and then it reboots and throws me that error, I am NOT bricked, but its not applying the update.

Did it twice.
[Windows Phone 7 General] outofelement:
Thanks for the confirmation!
[Windows Phone 7 General] eqzgkxokwa:
It failed. "The timer ran out on what we were trying to do." 800705B4
[Windows Phone 7 General] werD:
yeah it's ATT-US, i edited my orig. post
[Windows Phone 7 General] toza:
Thanks, but still not getting it to work... Just on time, i click on the slider to turn it off, and Zune says "Cant check for updates now...":(
[Windows Phone 7 General] ryotgz:
Perfect. First try after the pre-nodo. 53 seconds seems to be the key for the Focus :D
[Windows Phone 7 General] Daegalus:
That error means you dont have enough space on your phone, clear your IE, Maps, and Search cache, and then if it still doesnt work, start deleting music/videos/apps/pictures.
[Windows Phone 7 General] alexyida:
Disconnected a bit early
[Windows Phone 7 General] toza:
What does error: 80072EFF mean?:D
[Windows Phone 7 General] SuperSlacker:
Just follow up and say that my update is complete. NoDo is now on my phone. Thanks everybody.
[Windows Phone 7 General] outofelement:
So, now I have to wonder...

Does unbranding the phone to grab the update potentially deprive you of carrier updates that might have been included had you not unbranded and waited?

Probably a risk?
[Windows Phone 7 General] Tim.Smith:
I'm really starting to get pissed off. I'm trying different wait periods, everything I can think of, I'm well over 60 tries at this point. Makes no sense.
[Windows Phone 7 General] emigrating:
Since there is no real carrier customization, I'd say no.
[Windows Phone 7 General] JamesAllen:
OEM?

There MAY be OEM (Samsung) customizations, however. I do remember reading that. In the case of Samsung, hopefully SD Card, battery icon, etc.). The reason I have not done this and am painfully awaiting the AT&T update is to make sure I get any and all Samsung specific OEM fixes.

[For Samsung Owners]

You WILL NEED to change your mobile operator to "000-88":

- Use samsung registry.xap (search for it in xda)

- Make sure you are editing the correct registry key

HKLM\System\Platform\DeviceTargetingInfo\MobileOpe rator SET String -> 000-88

(no case sensitive). After writing try reading and see if you get "GETString: 000-88" to make sure everything is ok. If you get anything other than this, then you made something wrong.

- Make sure your phone has access to the internet through 3G before trying the nodo hack (very important)

- While connected to hungary via PPTP make a ping (start->run->"ping -t somewebesite") cmd to a local website to make sure you are still connected to hungary tunnel while trying to get the update. Latency while connected to hungary pptp should be a lot higher than your normal latency.

- Once you get the warning about an update you may disconnect from hungary pptp. (before hiting update button)
[Windows Phone 7 General] Daegalus:
I figured it out, for those that happen to get it in the future, make sure you connect to a USB slot that is directly on connected to the motherboard, not a hub. A hub in most cases includes ports on the front of a case, or actual hubs. So if you get it, just connect it to the back of the computer and you should be fine.

Just got past the backup and its actually updating the OS.
[Windows Phone 7 General] TecShdw:
It worked! I didn't have to do the Hungary part, just took a few tries of changing the string to 000-88 and turning off data connections. I'm at about 70% creating a backup right now!

Seems that unbranding took care of pre-NoDo, this took care of NoDo..

Thanks!
[Windows Phone 7 General] captobie:
What a PITA but I finally got it. My phone is backing up right now. Just having a backup of my phone is worth the pain of this procedure.
[Windows Phone 7 General] bennyj71:
I hear what you're saying, but if there were any OEM customizations included wouldn't we get them anyway. The update servers knows what kind of phone we have, so we would get the upgrades.

[Windows Phone 7 General] crsnwby:
please explain in clear english the instrusctions as it DOES NOT WORK
[Windows Phone 7 General] crsnwby:
53 seconds is your latency to hungary, it has nothing to do with your device STOP saying wait X time.

Do we have to update to Pre-NoDo (Build 7008) in order to see the NoDo update, or can we go directly from RTM (Build 7004) to NoDo?
[Windows Phone 7 General] tewmgd:
Can't get working. I successfully changed the regkey to 000-88 but when I go to Zune and hit update I got the "already up to date" message.

'Maybe it's the time thing I don't understand.

I open Zune, I plug my phone.

I go to Cellular settings on my phone.

I click on "Settings > Phone > Update" in Zune.

I got the progress bar working for a few seconds and get the alread up to date message.

It's then I should wait xx seconds and switch off data connection on the phone ? And the update should popup magically at this exact time ?

as much as i would love to have this update..i think i'll hold out and wait for the official release. there's gotta be a reason they've held back the update in "testing" phase (M$ website), for the Samsung Focus. possibly adjustments and tests for minimal battery usage to maintain optimal battery life, samsung focus hardware related tweaks and issue fixes, we don't know if this will cause overheating if left plugged in for charging since this hack update is fresh and new and hasn't been fully tested by the users. there's just too many minor things not considered in WHY this hasn't been officially released yet. and i'd rather not run into forum posts and articles of Samsung Focus owners having phone melt downs or issues that won't be reversible since there is no original ROM to flash back to.

If you have wifi, dl sgs kernel flasher from market. Actually dl a compatible cm7 kernel. Use kernel flasher to try to flash kernel. Probably won't work cause sounds like you can't see your sd. Also did you flash the efs backup as stated in the instructions?

That means you didn't follow instructions properly . Try using the kernel flasher . And flashing one of the "[KERNEL][CM7] ...." kernels . MIUI is based off of the nexus S , and CM7 uses a captivate version kernel from Nexus S .

Another question, i did this last night and ive had my phone for just 1 day. The battery life is simply aweful. Other people said their phone lasts a day, but mine has lasted about 6 - 7 hours before it dies. The apps i have installed are as follows

the MIUI stock apps

titanium backup

refraction lite

taskos

studyblue

soundhound

lazydroid server

lookout

imdb

screen filter

google goggles

google maps

google docs

mega jump

uno

evernote

nfs shift

ninjump

speedx 3d

the weather channel

twitter

facebook

google reader

sleep

baconreader

The widgets i have running are as follows

taskos full screen widget

google reader wiidgets

bacon reader widgets

evernote widget

facebook widget

twitter widget

Thats basically my entire phone, and i have absolutely HORRIBLE battery life. I followed the instructions exactly so i have the same kernel, and the same files as everyone else. The phone functions properly, no lag (or very little at some times), and it sometimes heats up.

So, the things i want to fix are

-Battery life

-Heating up

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! :D

Edit : I should also point out, i turn wifi off when im not using it, and my brightness is set pretty low..
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Prototype159:
With light - moderate usage you can get 1 - 2 days. With heavy usage, you will only get one day. Also having widget is also going to lower your battery quicker, since they are syncing and updating every so often.

The battery issue is a bug from CM7, which this is based off of, so what bugs they have, we have. So until it get's fixed in CM7, we can't do anything about it.

So if you need a better battery life, flash another rom.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] supaphreek:
Im not even getting a full day though, it doesnt even last till the end of school... What rom would you suggest i flash? I kinda like GB, and my options are

- GR-12

- SubPreSSioN 3.3

- Continuum v5.4.1

What would have the best battery life? If its the same as MIUI, im definetly going to go back to stock 2.2
