[Windows Phone 7 General] swanny78:
Finally installing mango now using the method on www.windowsphonehacker.com. No need to have an unlocked phone with that method which is easier for me.
[Windows Phone 7 General] derausgewanderte:
yeah, I am curious too. did the very last step take 3 hours or total?
[Windows Phone 7 General] jamesris1:
I updated my hd7 after a whole night trying to get the first method to work. After going through every page of this thread, 2 resets , and uninstalling/reinstalling applications , i finally came across the device provisioner (or "mangoforall" v .02) :)

I was pretty happy with all the new features but it still has a long way to go.
[Windows Phone 7 General] jallenashley:
Ok, so I have tried several things to update to Mango.

First I downloaded Mangoforall v0.2 and the Windows Phone Support Tool. I also downloaded a tool to back up my phone. It needed some spk file I downloaded on another thread. I backed up, the ran the WP Support Tool. After that I ran the Update.bat in the Mangoforall download. I got the prompt on my phone to update. When I plugged it in and ran the update on Zune, I got an error code #80180048. I have restored, ran the update almost a dozen times and I always get that error code. I even updated the Zune client to 4.8 and i still get the error.

Also, now every time I try to run the update Mangoforall, I get and error in red.

I'm really getting annoyed and frustrated. Can anyone help???
[Windows Phone 7 General] revrak:
what do you mean by ??

Chev unlocked edit registry to keep unlocked.
[Windows Phone 7 General] ycode90:
Phone unlocked with chevron . Then the registery edit to prevent relocking. Mango installed fine . I'm a little let down by it still tho. Posting from my Inspire now
[Windows Phone 7 General] revrak:
and you can still use homebrew apps?

all my homebrews apps are getting revoked :(
[Windows Phone 7 General] hoaisonongame:
Could u attach the mangoforall v0.2 here? I can't download from megaupload :(
[Windows Phone 7 General] jallenashley:
Yeah. I'll have in the morning. I took a sleeping pill and am out of it.... xD
[Windows Phone 7 General] xs2k:
Nevermind...everything worked...!

Thanks XDA
[Windows Phone 7 General] derausgewanderte:
turns out I never checked the phone's setting after the cold boot. it is indeed the mango software that is on the phone. It's in the initial purchase state but has mango on it. After the mango upgrade and getting the dreaded boot logo forever again I left it at the boot logo overnight and nothing happened, it was still at the boot logo next morning (as I expected). Cold booted and it went to Mango, but all information was gone, purchase state. The battery was completely empty, I wasn't even able to boot first couple times until I charged. I believe the boot issue in this case is related to a drained battery. Gonna wait for Mango release....
[Windows Phone 7 General] ycode90:
No they're all still there just won't run says revoked by ms or some **** and asks to uninstall. For all the hype it's still not up to par with any other mobile os . It just sucks a little less now .:(
[Windows Phone 7 General] jallenashley:
Here is Mangoforall v0.2

skydrive [dot] live [dot] com/redir.aspx?cid=74dd2b3b79b56f4a&resid=74DD2B3B79B56F4A!185

This won't let me post links yet.... :eek:
[Windows Phone 7 General] blindpet:
Love how you put it on skydrive lol
[Windows Phone 7 General] fb401:
I tried again this morning, same thing here, gonna have to stick with NoDo unfortunately unless MS reissues the files with a fix. I'd be curious to know the cause because this stinks.
[Windows Phone 7 General] derausgewanderte:
have you tried to put the original firmware/software onto the phone? It seems the update also replaces the emergency rom I guess.

cheers
[Windows Phone 7 General] ov2rey:
this is true?
[Windows Phone 7 General] fb401:
Nah, I didn't wanna go that far back just to come back up to Mango. Like I said, I'll stick with NoDo and hope that MS gets this sorted out before the fall. Maybe we'll even get a Mango Beta 3 before then.
[Windows Phone 7 General] derausgewanderte:
what I meant is install the original rom, then run the our latest backup on top of it. This way the emergency rom is original and not mango.

But I agree, when mango comes out this is still an option (worst case scenario). if it should do the same we'll end up with a phone that has mango release sw installed after cold boot (all info gone). I am sure ATT will hold this back for several months anyway and they have the issues fixed

cheers
[Windows Phone 7 General] DavidinCT:
Just a few quick questions here, as I am dying to try this on a non-dev Verizon Trophy...

1. Is this an inplace upgrade or does this nuke your phone ?

2. if not a upgrade, will my apps/games from the marketplace install and work for the most part ?

3. People have been saying they have been restoring back to Pre-nodo, are you guys using the addon to Zune or another option ?

4. Is there any advantage to going the Dev install route vs. the non-dev unlock method ? Will the dev devices get updates/fixes ?

Need to know I have a solid backout plan if needed.

Any one install this on a Verizon HTC Trophy and have any issues ?
[Windows Phone 7 General] fb401:
Oh, you know what? I didn't even think of that. But you're right, AT&T will most likely delay this thing unless MS & LG work quickly to find the cause. The fact that there are some official devs at AppHub that are having the same problem is concerning.
[Windows Phone 7 General] derausgewanderte:
1. it theoretically is an inplace upgrade. there are rare cases for which it doesn't work (e.g. mine).

2. yes, I had to cold boot mine and it ended up with mango sw, I was able to install all purchased apps from marketplace and they run without a problem

3. mostly people are doing this to unlock their phone and carry the unlocked state over to the upgrade. the tool listed here that does not use MS application bypasses that. an unlocked phone is not a requirement anymore. Going to pre nodo is not necessary. the only downside is with a locked phone you won't be able to use many sideloaded homebrew apps.

4. The Zune software will not be able to distinguish between dev or not (I believe, correct me if I'm wrong) and if there are updates you should see them as well. I doubt though that there will be updates before release. Remember, anticipated release is Sept.
[Windows Phone 7 General] jallenashley:
noob question.... how do you cold boot on a samsung focus? I did the Pwr + Camera and that does the connect to pc. Pwr + camera + vol dwn to format. then Pwr + vol up + vol dwn + camera takes me to a download mode, and it sits on that indefinitely. Those are the only ways I know how to boot the phone.
[Windows Phone 7 General] thesecondsfade:
What are some of your first impressions?
[Windows Phone 7 General] cohowap:
Yea... "App Name" revoked my Microsoft... Getting this for ALL my homebrew apps, including ones i made myself.
[Windows Phone 7 General] mrbel87:
can you try to deploy an app with new sdk?
[Windows Phone 7 General] BellPego:
Mango Beta doesn't support app with: ID_CAP_INTEROPSERVICES capability flag..

No more homebrew...
[Windows Phone 7 General] mikeeam:
So your only option to test your apps is the phone emulator?

@cohowap

Can you try any Push Notification?!
[Windows Phone 7 General] cohowap:
First impressions... Not much so far, task switching fairly neat, the new app menu looks good, as the letters go buy it updates at the top.

IE9 is nice... Other than that, I havn't seen much of a difference. Doesn't appear to be running any faster.

XBox live HUB definatly nicer, alot more appealing to the eye.
[Windows Phone 7 General] cohowap:
I'd love to test Push Notifications, however I can't. I don't have the Beta 2 SDK installed, but I do plan on playing with them once I get home later today.
[Windows Phone 7 General] mikeeam:
Try Kik or IM+ (if you have). Kik is free, and the push works.
[Windows Phone 7 General] f0lken:
So if i understood correctly you're not a dev, you're just using the tools your friend gave to you and yet you've been able to install mango on your phone?

If so, hype up :)
[Windows Phone 7 General] Yagi:
Generic Update Files?

It seems to me these are generic update files that are released to any dev that downloads them. The only way Microsoft is allowing one phone per dev is by your windows live id which everything is linked to in in wp7. In other words, can't update on two phones with the same windows live id. So I don't think devs should have a big prob uploading the files.
[Windows Phone 7 General] nok_fusion:
but all developpers until now are quiet...
[Windows Phone 7 General] cohowap:
I think it's only fair to fully explain what I am huh.

I am a Dev, but my phone is not on a developer account (anymore). Phone was dev unlocked and I put the regkey in to prevent relocking.

I never got an invite from MS to join the beta, I did not goto my "Microsoft Connect" account to register or w/e. I did nothing besides update my zune and run the update files.

I have an HTC Arrive (Sprint CDMA), and calls are working as well as data.

So technically, can my scenario cover all you who had original phones unlocked with WPChevron? Nope, but it can definatly give you a little more faith.
[Windows Phone 7 General] the92playboy:
I would think then that those of us with LG Quantums and unlocked them (via the MFG settings options on the actual device) should be able to do them same as you then? Since the device would recognize itself as a dev unlocked device, and not a workaround such as chevron unlocker?
[Windows Phone 7 General] f0lken:
Ok thank for the clarification :)

What i am wondering now is if the MFG App will still work in my Optimus 7 since that is "official" (I unlocked my NODO phone with that and without using any chevron utility)
[Windows Phone 7 General] redviper666:
Brandon Watson says that you can update multiple phones but they will only support one. I can't believe I paid the 100 bucks and MS is totally screwing me by not sending the connect invite :(
[Windows Phone 7 General] Yagi:
Again, someone just needs to upload the files and I'm pretty sure it will just go off of your windows live id. Since clearly everyoen will be using their own, there will be no problems.
[Windows Phone 7 General] jimmyzerol:
I hope thisll work cuz i got quantum too
[Windows Phone 7 General] ziggy89:
waiting for files is genuinely killing me ^^
[Windows Phone 7 General] sensboston:
All developers who already downloaded these files, signed bunch of agreements with Microsoft including restriction to redistribute. So stop complaining and asking for files (at least at xda - software piracy is strongly prohibited here).
[Windows Phone 7 General] mikeeam:
Not everyone. There is another bunch of developers that received the email already. And there is no restriction in the files
[Windows Phone 7 General] derausgewanderte:
maybe similar for Samsung. on the LG you turn the phone off. Then turn on. While the phone boots you press camera and vol up + vol dwn. I had to do this a few times to get the timing right. you should then see the "cold boot" text
[Windows Phone 7 General] DavidinCT:
Installed, took about an hour, kept most of my settings, appears to work pretty well so far...

Verizon HTC Trophy...
[Windows Phone 7 General] jallenashley:
Ok, it's installing on my Samsung Focus. I think I kept getting the error because I ran the WP Support Tool with the 7930 Firmware. Guess that's a no no.... I found my first backup and restored my phone to it. Now it all seems to be working. It's installing the 7661 Firmware right now. :cheers: :cool:

UPDATE: It finished and it is awesome. :D

Facebook chat doesn't work, but then again, this is a beta. If there is a fix, let me know.
[Windows Phone 7 General] noelito:
can anyone confirm if these xaps still work?

screen capture app, phone restart ap, i e search switcher, my htc-provxml-deploy to keep phone unlocked?
[Windows Phone 7 General] blindpet:
I tried provxml at every stage of the update but I still couldn't sideload after the final beta update, must wait for the talented devs. I bet they're having fun with it heh.
[Windows Phone 7 General] M1cky:
I re-synced Facebook account a few times and chat working good now.
[Windows Phone 7 General] jallenashley:
Eh.... Not workinf for me. I go to the settings and turn FB chat on and it says it needs to be set up then takes me to some website that won't display. When I go back to the settings, FB chat is back off.... :confused:
[Windows Phone 7 General] noelito:
so i cannot use my screen capture, phone restart or

other homebrew apps? anyone

[Windows Phone 7 General] Klocker2:
so low level interop? I'm assuming that means accent color changer is blocked

[Windows Phone 7 General] abhilaksh:
yeah. anything which seems to access the mango filesystem is locked out. except touchXplorer. that's still got root access. Have not tried any of the cut/copy/etc operations yet though. There's a chance that it exits on calling any of them.

[Windows Phone 7 General] kohkikker:
ahhh Thank you
[Windows Phone 7 General] fb401:
That won't work for us. Our problem isn't getting the update to run, it's getting the OS to boot up after updating.
[Windows Phone 7 General] derausgewanderte:
hey fb401. I decided to use the cold boot mangob2 image we ended up with to build up the apps and settings. I didn't have too many settings that needed to be re-entered. People populated automatically (on Sim). Apps have to be installed again via Zune, purchased apps are recognized as such (just make sure to use identical windows live account). It didn't take too long to get to a state that I had pre-mango (considering the time I wasted to upgrade to Mango). Then I did a backup with this tool and can now switch between Nodo and Mango at will.
[Windows Phone 7 General] izazbomz:
thank you !!
[Windows Phone 7 General] swanny78:
Ive upraded to Mango Beta and must admit im very impressed, it looks like a very promising OS. Smooth , fast and all together.

My only question\concerns are:

since upgrading to Mango the Marketplace homepage does not update with daily featured apps. Its been the "associated press" app on the home page since I upgraded last week. Is this the same for others?

No custome ring tones (I assume this is not part of the Beta) ?

LinkedIn does not intergrate with messaging etc... keeps saying needs attention even tho it is linked to my live account...same for everyone else?
[Windows Phone 7 General] colossus_r:
Search the forum ..there are at least 3 threads about custom ringtones and how to do it ..

this is one of them
[Windows Phone 7 General] derausgewanderte:
had the same problem. go to your windowslive account (website). unlink linkedin, delete the account from the phone, relink linkedin on your windowslive account (website), then refresh accounts and add the linkedin account back to the phone (it may already be back in there after you refresh). Note that it took quite a long time for it to update on the phone, be patient.

worked here.

custom ringtones: create a wma, mp3 <1mb. add it to your Zune library (v4.8). Within Zune, right click on your mp3/wma and edit, add a category 'Ringtone'. Then drag and drop the file onto your phone icon (bottom left in Zune, your phone should be connected). The ringtone will now show up under Custom on the phone.

And as colossus stated, it's a good idea to research a little (really not difficult to find help on ringtones especially), before you make a bold statement
[Windows Phone 7 General] swanny78:
great tx...ill try that
[Windows Phone 7 General] derausgewanderte:
update from the AppHub. Ms is aware of the issue now with LG Quantum never booting up and getting stuck at LG logo. Funny that they call it "a little additional help"

[Windows Phone 7 General] ace10134:
It's the updated developer version of Mango. Now your phone is basically running the final RTM... It's basically the final version. How is it?
[Windows Phone 7 General] swanny78:
yes my observations so far are:

1. linked in now works , authorise on first go and it works

2. Twitter integrations works :-) again authorise on 1st go and works

3. Zune and marketplace seem smoother

4. Play music icon in Zune is chnaged to a circle with musical notes in

5. The ME icon has changed on Bing Maps

I got the download when I docked with Zune client on PC dead easy.
[Windows Phone 7 General] matthewhypolite:
after the update did ur phone sync with the original Zune?

Sent from my SGH-i917 using Board Express
[Windows Phone 7 General] cohowap:
NOTICE!!!

The update relocked my phone, and when I try to reunlock it, I get the tool can not connect to the server.

So yea, I have mango, but my phone is locked, I can't even deploy development apps anymore.

Error in visual studio -

Error	2	Failed to connect to device as it is developer locked. For details on developer unlock, visit http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=195284.	0	0

Have you read (and sign?!) the "Acceptance Conditions for access to 'Mango' Beta 2 OS for Retail Dev Devices"?

P.S. Just copypasting from download site:
[Windows Phone 7 General] mikeeam:
Nop, have you?

Because, as far as we know, developer just receive an email with zip files.

Edit:

Well, sorry then. We had informations that the email sent by MS contains the file. Nothing about enclosed license.

So guys, that's why developers aren't sharing.
[Windows Phone 7 General] sensboston:
Yes, I did. And developers received email with link to agreement, not a zip files...
[Windows Phone 7 General] nok_fusion:
oh well,so we wait for nothing =D
[Windows Phone 7 General] sumdumdude:
Is the link specific to your account, or was it a link to a general page where you have to log in? If it is the latter could someone post the link so those of us who have not received the email but do have dev accounts can get the files?

Yes. Where are the developers and hackers with balls of steel to upload for the world?

That link will take you to a login screen at Microsoft Connect. What we need is the files from a separate source. Those files are most probably impossible to trace and they probably doesn't do any checks on the phone when you try to apply the update. It might check if you're using a developer unlocked device but I'd be surprised if they did any heavy checking..
