[Q] Mango Update on Macs? - HD7 General

Has anyone with a Mac been able to update yet? I'm still at 7.00.07392 and "no update available."

Yes I have updated to official Mango from the developer Mango in OSX without any issues at all. It was actually easier than doing it in Windows, haha!
Make sure you've got the up-to-date "Windows Phone 7 Connector" app to receive the update. If you don't have the new red windows icon for your application, you are going to need to update it. It should say "Version 2.0 (110820)" in your about window.

Yeah I've got that version. I guess I just have to wait it out ... My HD7 is really just a Zune player now / backup phone anyway. Best PMP I've owned to date!
Thanks, by the way.

I got tired of Connector for Mac saying no update available and decided to flash the leaked Tmobile US Mango from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1281471 .

yes, i have updated my hd7 with mac!
on windows i receive a lot of error -.-" so i connected to the mac and, bam! mango, in a few minuts !

Nothing yet for me. Still says "no update" , I'm also using the latest version of WP connector.
Could you please tell me if its possible to flash to the mentioned ROM using Mac? I only have Windows 8 with Parallels.
tks

How did you flashed this ROM using a Mac? tks..

You can follow the forced update procedure using a Mac and Parallels. I probably could have done it using W7Phone Connector and the wireless toggle method, but I live the hard way.
I did it with Parallels, finally.
Run Parallels, run Zune, connect your phone, let it tell you there's no update, then go to "Settings" in the Zune (Parallels) software.
Choose "Update" and when the colorful Zune progress bar starts running, disconnect your internet connection, just like the instructions people have posted say.
As a side note, make sure your SIM card is actually IN the phone ... I had my SIM in my primary (other) phone and I'm pretty sure that was part of my problem because Zune was saying that it "could not connect to the internet using my phone."
Also, don't forget to click "Yes" when Parallels asks you whether you'd like to continue the USB device settings in your virtual machine because when your phone automatically restarts during the update process, Parallels won't automatically assign its USB connection to your virtual machine unless you've already set it up to automatically assign the connection to XP/7.

No 7392... no "HTC Update"... I'm starting to think something is wrong.
Info: TMOUS HD7
Would someone happen to know what in sam hell is going on?
Same here.
Same here, I'm on T-Mobile USA too, so my only guess is T-Mobile hasn't released the update yet.
My hd7 with bell Canada was not showing any update avail. But when I plugged it into desktop, In Zune I went to phone settings then check for update and it showed up.

I spoke with a T-Mobile Rep yesterday (5/6/11), and he insisted that 7390 is the most current update available for T-Mobile HD7s.
That does not, however, mean that an update isn't going to be available soon...
It's like OEM Android updates. Google releases the new kernel builds to Manufacturers, then the manufacturers send them down the line to Service Providers. Once tweaked & approved, the updates become official.
Seeing how several other devices have received the updates, I'm assuming that us TMOUS HD7 users are awaiting T-Mobiles approval of the updates... one being the Certificate Security update, so I'm sure it shouldn't be much longer.
No, you just didn't Walsh your handset hope this helps
BrandonWatson said:
When we test our update process, we test against a known state machine. Further, as a health protection mechanism, the phone will always try to recover from an error state (as in an incomplete update), and will begin doing things to solve for the fact that it is in an unknown state. This is the reason why phones started downloading OEM updates after forcing the update via this unofficial tool.

I have no reason to "Walsh" m8... as I have Dev-Unlocked my device.
thus no HTC update for you, I did quote the reason why you didn't get the HTC update but here is the important part in-case you missed it.
This is the reason why phones started downloading OEM updates after forcing the update via this unofficial tool.
OH I see what you're saying.. The HTC Update is pretty much ONLY for Non-Branded & Walshed devices.
Explains it. Thanks for clarifying, I must not have read too much into the info. My bad.
UPDATE:
Got my update finally.

GT to Win7-64... can't see each other

Alright, I have had my Tab for nearly a month, but never bothered trying to physically shuffle data from my pc or my seagate goflex satellite hdd.
If I plug the satellite into my tab, nothing happens. It can't see the drive. This means that the only way to get anything is through the wireless AP built into the harddrive. This is frustrating if I want to physically move files, not just stream.
If I plug my tab into my win7-64 laptop, again NOTHING happens. The drivers validated, windows says it understands that it is there, but I cannot mount the hdd on the tab, nor can I even see that it is there except for "drivers installed".
What the hell do I do?
Getting all sorts of pissed!
Do I need to root my tab first or something? Put a different OS-mod on it?
Install Kies....
There is no Kies for PC. t_t It's MAC only.
It's definitely not mac only.

Mac version is relatively new, it's been there for Windows for months before that. And, to be honest, Kies is Samsung own software to manage devices, even my mother's Corby installed that horrible thing.

Open samsung webpage. Download kies for window. Install it and you are good to go

Be sure before saying such ****!!
There it's a windows version of lite in usa. The full version is international but can be downloaded and installed on windows. Problem its not for x64. That it what I am on and when I try to connect it says put device in kies mode. Called support and that is what they told me.
Could be wrong but I gave up. Even setup into dev mode but still did not work.
I don't think you should need it for external drive as mine came right up . I was told needed it for root.
You absolutely don't need it for root, and couldn't use it for drive mapping. Win 7 has native drivers to communicate with tab.
Settongs, applications, development ---> check debugging.
Then connect to your pc.

[Q] can't side load--Install Blocked

Just got a new Captivate, tried to load up some of my emulators on it. When I tried to install via ES File Explorer, it says:
"Install Blocked
For security, your phone is set to block installation of applications not obtained from Android Market."
How do I get around this? Thanks in advance.
You need root or a custom rom
Depending on what Android version you're on, you can check Allow installation of non-Market apps in System Settings
it is running 2.2. Where in settings is this, I have looked and I don't see it.
Oh I don't think that works with 2.2. I think you will need to root your Captivate.
Sent from my SGH-I897 using xda premium
bad advice as usual. root not necessary.
if you want to keep a stock phone, upgrade to the new stock att firmware for the captivate.
upgrade to att gingerbread. it has a setting for non-market apps. go to samsung site and download the update program (keis)
this is a feature of ALL rogers firmwares. Dont get me wrong, keis is garbage!! complete SH!T. but its the easiest route to obtain what you want without a steep learning curve.
When I click on Kies when I hook up a data cable, all it says is "connected" and nothing else happens. Can you provide a little more detail?
AT&T can push that upgrade to your phone (they did it for me).
Call the AT&T support line, tell them you have a Captivate on Android 2.2 and you need to have the "non-market apps" (or "unknown sources") feature enabled. They can push it to your phone from their end.
Once the push is complete, restart the phone and you should have the feature enabled.
Simplest way, use enclosed one click de-cripple.exe.
how do you use this file? I know I sound like a dumbass, but I have been using a tablet for the last year with no problem. Please let me know what I need to do with this? Thanks
first off, you have a stock phone with a stock rom, you havnt flashed any custom roms, right? if so get kies mini. when you open it it should show something similar to this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
when you plug your phone in, the button should gain color and be clickable, at which point you follow the on screen instructions. if that does not work, you will need to get the drivers for the captivate. all this software is available directly from samsung.
if kies still doesnt see your phone after the drivers then post back and we will get some more info goin on in this thread.
once on kk4, the latest official release, go to settings, applications, and check unknown sources. you should then be able to install non market apps.

thanks for all the help guys. I ended up having to download the Kies mini and upgrading that way. Now everything seems to work fine.

I think I bricked my Tab?

It is showing a small round mobile phone, 2 dots, a ! inside an orange triangle, 2 more dots, and a computer.
This is the first time I'm seeing this screen.
Edit: Just to give some insight as to what I was doing...
I was using a SGT7 build of CM9, and I noticed USB Tethering wasn't working (native nor Wired Tether 1.4 worked). I had to run to a friends house for the night real fast, so I figured I'd just go back to Stock firmware and use that for a few hours just so my desktop could get Internet.
I am also using Windows 8 Release Preview. Odin could see my device fine, but upon pressing Start to start the flashing process, it did nothing (I'm guessing Odin or Samsung's drivers don't work well on W8RP). No progress was made on either Odin or my tab for about 5 minutes. Since nothing was done, I figured I could close Odin, and restart my Tab. Now I only get this screen:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I immediately went to the "How To Unbrick Your Galaxy Tab!" thread, but didn't find mention of the screen I described in this post, and then I made this post in panic.
When I went back to Windows 7, Odin was able to reflash my tab successfully, and USB Tethering was working fine. So perhaps Windows 8 has some weird incompatibility with Samsung Drivers? In any case, this might serve as a warning to anyone trying to use Odin in Windows 8.
I think it was mentioned in a few threads.
Many confirmed that it is another download mode.
You just have to make sure it is fully charged, and keep trying Odin restocking. It will go through.
(I never experienced it myself)
Edit: many reference, just search in here fore "phone exclamation pc"
Yea it would seem it's another download mode. I was able to flash with Odin just fine in Windows 7, so all is well again
i have said this in many threads. this is the result of faulty flashing. just use the latest version of odin
please thank me if you found this helpful
