R: HTC abandons HD7, no 7.8 update
I have an HD7. This news it's so sad.

This is BS I think.
We should wait for the official news.

Hope it's not true..

Ugh
My 8X is the last HTC I'll own if I can help it (also had an HD7)

bye for ever hd7:crying:

An unlock T-Mobile HTC HD7 updated to 7.8
I did the update trick; connected to computer, placed in Airplane Mode, checked for updates and quickly disabled Internet connection. It took many tries but eventually through each update.
Started with 7.5 tango: 7.10.8773.98
Installed these updates:
7.10.8779.8
7.10.8783.12
7.10.8858.136 (7.8)
w00t!

Thanks for the tip... Works for me as well. Doing 7.10.8779.8 update right now...
Edit: It has been updated and right now running official WP 7.8... WOW...

Just pulled out the old HD7 and managed to get it to update as well. Maybe this will give it a bit of an extended life and I can pass it on to a family member.
Cheers for the heads up everyone.

This does not mean, that you are going to use home brewed ROM, but exactly opposite way. If you update it this way, you will get official updates through Zune.
Just do what is mentioned in the update post:
"Connect to computer, place in Airplane Mode, check for updates and quickly disable Internet connection."
I have just pulled the network cable after 2-3 sec. after update check started and waited. After several tries (~2-10) Zune told me, that there is an update available. Than you just reconnect the cable and run the update.
Repeat for each update. Than you have official updates installed.
There could be maybe more updates in your case, because you have only 7.10.8107.79 version, but at the end you should end up with official 7.10.8858.136. :fingers-crossed:

How it works?
I'm using custom 7.8 ROM but it's slow when opening apps.

This forced update is because of Microsoft, not HTC....having said that, it seems to be regional but I will try to force my USA phone today...

It seems to me a bit smoother. No problem with performance at all - it is fast as the Mango/Tango version. But it is only my opinion.

I have a T-Mo US HD7 that is unlocked. It's running the latest OS stock. I tried to force update it many times but only got the error 'Make sure youre connected to the internet'. Can someone please help me out with this?

Thanks for the info.
To update from custom 7.8 I need to:
1. update to official 7.8 ROM using Zune
2. re-unlock to be able to use unsupported apps - how?

Avoid that annoying trick and try this: http://www.wpcentral.com/tool-make-installing-windows-phone-78-update-easier
Just download, install it, it will ask you to install another flashing program when u start it, the install everything step by step and u will get it quickly... its was easier for me than the Zune "trick"...!

[Q] need help with roms and flashing?!

Okay so I've been hacking iPhones since the first one. I got my hd7 wen it was released. And I've updated to NoDo. Now...i realize this update kills chevronwp7. But I've been reading an reading all over this forum and its only half-clear to me. I have installed axebox and the update for HD7 rom unbranding. Problem: what rom do i need? There are so many and where do i get it?? I know i need the rom for the firmware before NoDo... I've been spending hours. Posting a thread is always last resort. Im not illiterate just not knowledgeable enough yet with this.
Thanks for any and all replies!
You'll first need to flash or roll back to an older ROM (either 7004 or 7008).
Then, you'll need to follow this thread

Oh and I just read about needing a "goldcard" and a special USB cable? Is this someones misunderstanding? I thought "goldcard" was an update to axebox.

For example this rom :

Get on a PC and login to your windows live account and then check your contacts and see if they are there. When I first got my HD7 and set it up, it synched all my contacts. After I restored it and did the unlock and upgraded it, it synched all my contacts back and I didn't know it did and I ended up having all my contacts twice cause I had imported them from my similar card before realizing they had synched back from my windows live

Sorry for a quasi-hijack, but I too need help with flashing ROM's so it's highly related.
I've searched all over for almost a week, but I can't find an answer. How can you get into bootloader with unresponsive volume keys?
I've tried modding the registry entry for my phone so that I can move the HD2compatible EnterBootloader.exe files I found on this site on to my HD7, but they don't execute when I try to run them (I didn't really expect them to since they were compiled for WM6.5, but I tried all the same). Is there something similar for WP7? Or maybe does someone know how to launch the bootloader via code in an app (I have developer access to it)? I can't even hard reboot this thing without the volume keys working.
Thanks in advance!

I called dell two days ago for some trouble shooting. I asked about honeycomb on T-Mobile ds7 they said by end of December everyone should have it and called T-Mobile to confirm what dell said and was confirmed by them as well per me talking to them.
Well, that's good news. Too bad I hacked the crap out of it and revived mine way too many times.
deleted. i hope they're serious about the t-mobile update. or mine will be up for sale.
Me too. Only reason I haven't hacked my devices cause they still got a warranty.
If anyone can help I would really appreciate it. Been running Honeycomb for a few days now and I am constantly getting a force close that says "The process android.process.acore has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again."
Can't seem to find what is going wrong.
PLEASE HELP!

I had that happen before. Its something that you downloaded. Reset it. You will be fine. Could be something on your memory card too.
what kind of battery life are you getting with 3.2 i get 2 to 3 hrs before a recharge i have a unlocked 3g on AT&T
I have a streak 7 with Android 2.2.2 which bought in US last year.
Now I cant update by setting--->system update(just like the website out of work).
I still cant get official Android 3.2 by floor 1 wedsie.
How can I update my tablet from 2.2.2 to official 3.2?
Thanks!!!
There is a sleep bug in the RIL. I know you use 3g, but when connected to WiFi, put it un airplane mode. Hugevdifference in battery life and WiFi still works.

few noob questions

sorry about these noob questions...but let start:
1. i got an att&t 8.9 3.2 honeycomb os. what is the latest os (official or unofficial) out there now that works smoothly with my device meaning everything works, front and back camera, sound etc. links would be great.
2. i'm getting ipc communication popup error every once in awhile. what does this error mean? how do i get rid of this error. i assume if i update to latest os, the error will be gone? btw, i dont have a sim card inserted in my device, so i don't really know if its matter?
3. my device sometime auto dim. how do i turn off auto dim if i want it to stop?
4. how do i get kies? do i install it on both my device and pc? if on my pc, where is the install file?
thx in advance.

Not familiar with your device but I'll give it a try anyway.
3: Press the time in lower right corner and then set a fixed brightness.
4: Kies for windows is avalable on Samsung webpage. Search for your device on support and then select software.
Kies for wifi is awailable on google play and is only needed if you want to syncronize over the air.
Did a search for ROM's but just came up with a custom here on xda. Hopefully someone else will help you.

i did a search on android market for kies and all it came up was kies air from samsung. it is basically for sharing files between your tab 8.9 device with any devices on your wifi network. is that it? if yes, i thought kies allow you to update your os to the latest os if there are any from samsung via wifi. if no, where is the actual kies on android market? thx in advance.

Kies air (app) is for syncronizing your tab (files/contacts/music...) by wifi via Kies installed in your computer. It's not a wifi sharing tool.
Kies for PC is downloaded from Samsung webpage to your computer, not on to yor tab via market
If you install Kies in your computer and then plugin your tab (via cable) to it you can update the tab's system aswell as syncronize files (faster than wifi)
I dont think it's possible to update system via Kies air.

I suspect your tab isn't rooted. Then you should download Kies.
Go to the Samsung webpage, select support and then manuals and downloads.
Choose your device (you can choose the 7310, it makes no differens when downloading Kies)
When Kies is installed just plug in your tab and choose "update firmware"
Look for my post about flashing the us version o your P7310. If cant find out i'll help u.

A step by step guide for odin you'll find in the 7310 development department. Good luck
So for a beginner, which one is easier for me to do? Go to samsung website download kies and update my firmware to ics or do odin?
Also I read on some threads after some ppl upgrading their os, they had charging problem. What kind of problems are these and what are the steps to take to get rid of these problems? What do you need to do before you upgrade your os?

The charging problem relates to people who updated their P73x0 with an image ported from the Tab 10.1.
I am not sure which Tab you have. Is it an 8.9 3G or an 8.9 LTE?
If it's an 8.9 3G model, and you don't mind not having support for a SIM card, then the modded / rooted image from the 7310 will work for you. If you ahve the LTE version then this image is definitely not suited for your device. So be careful!
I have a 3G model myself, currently without sim card. I decided not to wait anymore and flashed the modified 7310 ICS image onto it. I am completely happy. Everything works, except the sim card (because the image is for the wifi-only tab) and it is a lot smoother and faster than the honeycomb image.
Image is found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1858251
You'll need to root your device and flash CWM. All is explained in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1406137

This is based on the assumption that your'e not rooted and using a stock ROM.
The easiest way is to update via Kies:
No need for root
Coming from stock ROM most apps will continue to work
You wont void warranty
No special effort required from you
The battery issues some have had is best avoided by upgrading with a full battery (no garanties though)
I did my upgrade via CWM. I did a full wipe and then formatted system, cache and data folders before updating (all apps and settings are lost)
I haven't had any problem, actually my tab has better stamina now.

not sure but as far as I understood from reading elsewhere, the AT&T tab is an LTE version, with wholly different hardware. if so, stay away from Odin flashing p7300/7310 ROMs !
Yes in the back of my 8.9. It does say 4g lte. So I guess I got the lte version. If I got the lte version, I guess none official ics update yet? If not, are there any unofficial version of it anywhere? If yes, is the unofficial bug free and can someone provide a direct link plz? Tia.

That's right. Besides, the Rom for the LTE are all Honeycomb so there's nothing to gain.
Kies works just like ota updates. Samsung is responsible for them.
Odin you are the one responsible and u must do all the work.
I did it by odin.

A bit more zippy than the stock ROM due to the reasons listed on that thread. Otherwise, it's Samsung's honeycomb image.
Yes, android native tethering, both WiFi and USB, is enabled.
If you still think it's slow, get a new launcher, twlauncher (touchwiz) is kind of a beast...
You can overclock it to 1.7ghz or so and it'll still be reliable, at least that's my experience.
The ATT ICS ROM is in test with the carrier. It'll probably be out in a month or two. Samsung should also release the ICS kernel source around then, after which you'll likely see some custom ICS images -- Nobody wants to bother making custom HC images OR trying to get an ICS kernel working on this device before Samsung releases a proper one -- Several have tried and found it quite a task.

but something does seems to interest me. it said about overclock to 1.7 ghz. how do i find out on my current 8.9 how many ghz is it running right now. and how do i overclock to 1.7 ghz? i assume you need to get some kinda apps from android market? if so what apps is it and is it free?
and what is touchwiz (twlauncher)? where can i get it? is it on the android market also?
thx for everyone help.

anyone can help to fix these issues.
Try hard reset the phone, if that doesn't fix anything, use the goldcard method to downgrade the os and start upgrading again or you can use deepshining or dynamics, those are excellent roms.
did you find a solution for this ? I have the same issue with a friend's phohne
What about what I said?
Did you performed the Hard Reset?
There is another update coming right now! Maybe this one fixes your problems.Version 7.10.8860.142
Regards

I'm having the same issues as OP, can you redirect me to the page?
I haven't had any problems since upgrading to WP7.8. I'm using the official ROMs (ie. non-cooked) BTW.

Forget the official, just install dynamics and a moment later Zune will give you 2 updates, no problem so far...

Stuck on 4.1.2

for any reason I am not receiving any OTA update an still on 4.1.2, my phone is factory sim unlocked; I do not want to change anything else on my phone just receive oficial updates. As far as I know I need to unlock, S-OFF, change CID and MID. I have been reading many diferent posts but allways refer to install custom roms; is this realy necesary just to receive OTAs?, if so, where can I find one for my version?.
Thanks in advance for any help

CID: HTC_332
HBOOT-1.44.0000

Thanks for your response, My phone for the last 4 years was an iphone and never need to deal with this type of issues so I am really new doing this; could you tell me how to install this ROM?, I believe that the first step is unlock and then gain S-OFF, but don't know how to go further.

Use Vomers s-off guide. It is located in the Htc one development forum. First thing is unlock your bootloader on HTC's site. Make sure you update your firmwares at the end of the vomer guide too. This will update your touchscreen, radio etc.. Flashing roms does not do that. Remember, unlocking bootloader wipes your phone, so backup first!
Whoa. The OP stated that he doesn't want to modify the phone, just receive the official OTA updates. Leading him down the path of unlocking bootloader, flashing recovery and ROM is just going to lead to a 'Help me I need to get my phone back to stock or else I have no warranty!' thread. And specifically, these changes will prevent the OP from applying the update. OTA updates can only be applied to phones in a stock state.
Have you confirmed that there is an update for HTC__332? I know that the US skipped 4.2.2 and some carriers are only just rolling out a 4.3 update. Check with your mobile phone company or wherever you got the phone. You just might need to be patient. For example, my phone won't be getting a 4.3 update until next month.
Now if you decide are impatient, then you can have some fun installing firmware and ROMs But always, always take a backup

Yes you are correct, I just don´t have enought knowledge to deal with any possible problem on my phone. I don´t know how to confirm if there is any update for this CID, I asked some days ago to HTC support but they didn´t provide me any good information, all they said is that according to the imei number this phone is factory unlocked (no carrier logo or apps) and the origin is USA; due to my work I am using this phone with different carriers in diferent countries, I got it from a web store.
Thanks a lot for your response, I thing the best decision for me is wait for the OTA and learn more before start to do some crazy things.

Yes exactly the same here, same automatic camera update, same new orange camera icon; also no tv app, according to the installed apps list sense tv is there but the icon to launch it is not.
I really feel like I did a big mistake moving from iOS to Android, I never needed to be asking for updates before because they just came easy and fast, also the phone was out of the box with all apps and utilities included, but, it is what it is, I'm just waiting for the next model and for sure I'll be back to iOS.

Okay. I am also new to android. It's my first android phone and I was so excited.but al this update thing makes me crazy. Sometimes I think maybe I should have bought a s4 since it's a more favorable phone worldwide. But I just fell in love with the design of the HTC ONE.But the tv app is not available every where. It depends on your country.(I am in Suriname) I read it on HTC website itself. But if got an update to android 4.3 please let me know.(same goes for me)

I did a search on your CID and yeah, it did sounds very strange. I wonder why they omitted the TV app. Bear in mind, this phone is only 6 months old. We were getting ios updates a year apart?
My first post wasn't intended to discourage you from unlocking and playing with custom ROMs, just a word of caution and to prepare before jumping in.
There's quite a few people who would be envious of your lack of updates because you are on hboot 1.44 which means you can get S-OFF and gives you a lot more flexibility.

A lot of other people in the same boat, please search next time. Basically, you have the Mexican HTC One and it's restricted from what I can gather

Ok guys I did everything according to the provided links and BOOOOMM it works perfect, right now I am running 4.2.2 WWE version, TV app is there and the phone is working smooth.
Now I am re locked, no tampered and still S-OFF, I believe this will not be a problem to keep receiving OTAs, just waiting for 4.3 release for this version.
I just noted that now I have a red letters warning in the TELL HTC screen saying something like "this is a test device not intended for sale............", I think that this is because still S-OFF and don't know if this could be a problem, I would appreciate if anybody knows how to get rid of this warning, NOTE this warning is not in the boot screen
Thakns again

Sounds like your region is following the same path as USA. They skipped 4.2.2 and went 4.3 earlier than others but with Sense 5.
Yes indeed. But I am still very pleased that i got the update without doing any unlock /root/ ect stuff. :thumbup: just got to wait for 5.5

If you are still s-off and on uk wwe, just change cid to HTC__Y13. (fastboot oem writecid HTC__Y13. Youll receive 4.3 with sense 5.5 (3.62.401.1). After update go back to your previous cid, i guess htc__001...
