I have this issue with one of my micro usb cables because it doesnt sit right in my DVP. I know it's a shot in the dark - but have you tried a different micro usb cable?
[Venue Pro General] kr33mo:
Tried 4 cables; 1 original, 2 BB and 1 Kindle Fire. None of them work. Thought I got a bit closer after removing the windows usb hub from device manager and restarting my computer. My device showed up in Zune for maybe 5/6 secs then errored out! It seems like its either the driver or the phone itself. Any other advice? I have removed certificates, uninstalled/reinstalled usb driver, reinstalled Zune, used different computers and nothing has worked thus far!

Edit: I would hate to have to take drastic measures and reset my phone to only find out that it did not fix the problem! How is it that a MS device connecting through an MS app (zune) on a PC with MS OS have these issues!!!
[Venue Pro General] vikipedia:
I have used the method and have managed to upgrade to Windows 7.8 on my DVP :good:

However, came across a couple of things i would like to report.

1. The Thems aren't the standard 20, the red one i normally use has disappeared too :(

2. The lock screen option under setting does not work either.

Is anyone else having similar issues?
[Venue Pro General] namex2:
hi

I had the same

I changed the language to another,

I have uploaded the language files (English, Polish),

and now it's all good
[Venue Pro General] kr33mo:
Stuck on 8112

I updated via cab sender to 8112, but everytime I try to update to 8773 the update reaches 50% and then goes into the process of restarting the phone. It hangs then errors out and the update is not installed. Any reason I am unable to update to Tango on my DVP?
[Venue Pro General] TheManii:
Are you sure the file names have not been modified?

I heard secondhand that if you have 2 copies of a file (ie filexxx.zip and filexxx-2.zip) it will choke up and get confused.

Make sure all your cabs are named properly and being sent in the right order.

(that's pretty much just making sure you dont have missing/duplicate files, the filenames are important)
[Venue Pro General] kr33mo:
Yep. Re-downloaded the files and was able to move fwd. Had to do this several times with subsequent updates, but I am running 7.8 now :). Was almost going to turn to another tool I found out about tonight that promises to remove the tediousness of the updates. Some people had some issues with it, but the majority of the comments seemed positive!

[Venue Pro General] version1000:
Same here.

Anybody can solve this?
[Venue Pro General] TheManii:
What options are you missing exactly?

I can enable a pin on the lockscreen and change the wallpaper.

There's also 20 colors available to me, not counting the light/dark part.

At least that seems to match the changelog, is there features not mentioned on the changelog that should be there?

Windows Phone 7 update history | Windows Phone How-to (United States):
[Venue Pro General] version1000:
There 2 things:

1. Can't access to lock+wallpaper settings. When you chose that setting nothing happens.

2. There are only 10 colors NOT 20.

I just tried to send the CABs back to the phone again (via EasyWP7Updater) and luckily everything works now. I hope it will be the solution for this error.
[Venue Pro General] TheManii:
Well then I cant reproduce, lockscreen settings is working fine for me and there are 4x5 rows of colors in the color picker.

Since the VP has no way of capturing screenshots I cant take screenshots.
[Venue Pro General] arvidh:
Great that it worked for you! Did you install all the cabs again or just the ones from the last batch, i.e:

SOLVE

hi

I had the same

I changed the language to another,

I have uploaded the language files (English, Polish),

for me the problem was caused by a lack of language files,

my dell had initially only in English,

after the upgrade to 7.5 I have uploaded the Polish language,

during the upgrade to 7.8 I have uploaded only the Polish language,

therefore, I could not run the option were not in 7.5 in the language of English, upload English language solved the problem

and now it's all good
[Venue Pro General] version1000:
I installed all the CABs from 8773 to 8858.
[Venue Pro General] Evil_Dog:
I used that tool on my t-mobile DVP and it worked great. It went from 7720 all the way to 8858 installing every update in between, it restarted the phone about six times but I'm running 7.8 now with no issues. I was a little hesitant to force an update in hopes of t-mobile releasing the official one, but I figured I would be waiting through all eternity for that to happen.
[Venue Pro General] krunalkamdar:
I just used this link to update my unlocked t moblie DVP and it was soo easy.Hardly asked me a thing.

Just download the link, connect the phone and it asked me to install drivers, say a yes and bang..............all done in 10 mins.
[Venue Pro General] sunvalleyadrian:
How do you repair this?

I began with the first cab packet and sent through WP7 update cab sender and the attached occurred twice after a complete reset. Ideas?
[Venue Pro General] little_daffodil:
Just used the "Force Update" method.

All good.

Thanks guys.
[Venue Pro General] firstandlast:
Hi Everyone, just updated my DVP to 7.8 and have got the same problem as some with no access to the Lockscreen and wallpaper setting and only 10 colours on the themes section.

I have tried reinstalling the last update again but keep getting update unsuccessful message.

Is there a way of downgrading back to Mango and if so where would I find those files?

Any help would be most grateful.

Paul.

I have also tried the EasyWP7Updater program as well.
[Venue Pro General] cyberstoic:
I just did the same with the force update trick on Zune. It took a few tries but it worked. The first two updates ran one after the other, but the last one I had to do the disconnect thing again. Now running 7.8!
[Venue Pro General] firstandlast:
Sorted out the problem. Just needed to install the Uk language files all working now.
[Venue Pro General] TheManii:
I've updated the op with that fact, seems that majority of users having issues is because they forgot to update their langs, and the langs differ depending on region (obviously)
[Venue Pro General] Naviiin:
So how's everyone liking 7.8? Does it make the phone more stable? I loved the DVP, but I had to return mine because it kept overheating and crashing. If something could be done about that, I'd definitely would have kept it.
[Venue Pro General] TheManii:
8860 is rolling out now

Dont know if that is the only cab though.

----------------------------------------------

Edit: Manually updated with cabsender and it seems to be working fine

Edit2:

8862 is out, flashed with cabsender and seems to be working

Hi all!

Do you meet the problem of power button: some times I cannot wake my phone up (or force my phone to sleep) using the power button. It's quite annoying. Right now I have to slip the keyboard up to wake my phone, and let the screen turn off automatically after 1 min. :confused:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Logix:
The point of making this is ODIN is only built for windows HEIMDALL ( IMO IS superior) and is cross platform compatible

I have two versions and they all come with TWRP recovery(also superior imo)

if someone wants a full stock/wo root let me know but I created these to make it easy to flash other roms.

Or if you just want Heimdall files tars let me know.

Instructions:

reboot into download mode

MAKE SURE YOU HAVE AT LEAST JAVA 1.6 INSTALLED ON YOUR SYSTEM vista may require select dlls

windows :double click jar boot in download mode and click start

linux open a console type java -jar "jarfilenamehere.jar" boot into download mode click start

osx double click jar boot in download mode click start

HOW TO BOOt INTO DOWNLOAD MODE

Power down phone completely

Simultaneously Press and Hold [Power] [Home] [VolDn] until confirmation screen appears

Press [VolUp] to enter Download mode

Are you on GB or ICS?
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sandroidnz01:
Re: [Q] Clean Install?

If you have the boot loader unlocked than its very easy to root your device.

Note:

Whenever, you flash a stock ftf firmware you will loose root status.

So,having this tool readily available on your desktop is important.

[1]Use the tool from this thread:

[Arc/Arc S]Auto root for unlocked bootloader-no flashing needed-by bazoocase.

[2]Xrecovery-another awesome tool

After you have unlocked your device,I presume you are on stock firmware 0.431 or 0.587.But not rooted,yes.

Now for magic.Run the tool,connect your phone and in less than a second or two your phone will be rooted.With the script in the tool you will now have superuser on your device.

Download busy box from market.

Next run the [2]Xrecovery which will install CWM to your device.

Enjoy flashing ROMs and kernels after this.

For any further enquiries just send me a msg.I will most certainly reply.

Hi Everybody,

I have actually spent some time looking for an answer around but without luck. I think since CM9 I can't sent the screen brightness in video players like MX Player, BS Player, Dice Player, ... I have the feeling it worked for me in later CM9, but I'm not 100 % sure. Anyway I have recently switched from CM10 to CM10.1, everything's quite fine except this obnoxious thing.

Does anyone know anything about this? I tried search here (XDA), video player forums, google, ... nothing.
