Zune performed a backup before nodo was installed. Don't ask me where exactly, but somewhere in zune you can do a rollback.
Thank you Very much! Will try and find out Thanks
hi for some reason i dont have any backup?
i got the option to restore in the update tab in zune, it said your phone is upto date, you can restore
yep but i updated sraight from original to nodo bwcause i wanted to debrand but i never knew that the rom i was updating too was a nodo. So I can use the update as I never updated using zune.
Ok for anyone who needs to know downgrading can happen! Just did it nothing wrong!
Why do you need to downgrade?
My phone is still dev unlocked after the NoDo update.
similar issue...
I forced NoDo on my Samsung Focus which worked...
then bought an SD card the next day out of excitement.
Not realizing the reset would void my unlock... i try to rollback through zune and it won't let me!! I am assuming because the SD card is now in the picture (which works fine)
Will a hard reset take me to original firmware???

It's on the Update Tab, with a rollback option.
The same update Tab you visited to get the Update.

Hello, I have a branded US T-Mobile HD 7 which has the TELSTRA NoDo on it. I would like to know if it's possible to flash the phone back to the pre-nodo stock rom? I would like to do this in order to try to attempt to get the official T-Mobile Nodo update.
Thank you in advance.
P.S. I posted this in the HD 7 section as well because I'm a noob to these forums and not sure where the question should really go.
In Zune, when you go to Settings->Phone->Update, do you get a section where you can restore a previous update?
If so, that should take you to the Pre-NoDo state.
No, when I go to update it just looks for the update and then tells me that my device is up to date.
Odd... You should have a previous restore point set up if you've installed NoDo.
What version number are you currently at?
Hey guys,
I was wondering if there was anyone else who had run into this issue, or if anyone had a way that might solve this problem for me.
I have a Samsung Focus through AT&T - back in April (I think) I did the VPN to Hungary method to update my Focus to NoDo. Everything looked fine at the time, but I guess there was something different about the image that got put on my Focus, as now that I have updated to Mango, my phone says that Marketplace is not currently available in my region/country
I believe this is because some part of the phone thinks I am in Hungary, and Hungary is not part of the Mango beta.
Any thoughts on how to fix this? Sadly when I did the Mango update, my phone was syncing with Zune as a guest, which apparently means it does not keep a backup image...would have been nice to know that earlier too unfortunately.
Thanks!

I don't know if there's a more convinient solution, but what you certainly can do is flash a stock ROM and then let Zune do all required updates until WP7 is build 7392 again. From that point on you should apply the mango update again and be then able to use the marketplace again.

Ah awesome! I have not had experience with flashing a stock ROM before - I will take a look around the forums. I assume I will have to download the stock AT&T focus image, and then use Zune to "restore" the image?
Thanks for the advice!

Yeah, you gotta get the appropriate ROM for your device (and if you want to keep the addtional AT&T apps and such, take care of getting an AT&T ROM). I'd start from scratch though, so no rollback of any backup afterwards. Takes more time, but you'll definitely be on the safe side then.
Finally got my Focus working completely with Mango!
For anyone else who has this problem - i went here (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1131022) to get the focus ROM - flashed all the way back to 7004 - updated to 7008, had to unbrand (not sure why, Zune wouldn't give me nodo) to NoDo, and then do the regular update process to Mango.
Whew
I've been trying to find an answer for this to no avail. I had unlocked my phone using the methods described here (really in ansar's thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1101344). My problem is, I rolled back to Nodo hoping to get the Tmob firmware update without having to flash the phone and wipe everything. I also rolled back Zune to 4.7. But, the only thing I get prompted to update to is Mango 7403. Which I thought would only happen if 1. You had the UpdateWP.exe to point your Zune client to the MS test servers and 2. There was a file to initiate on the phone that allowed it to get the Mango update. So, after completing deleting the Zune client and reinstalling, I still only get the Mango beta update message, which leads me to believe there is something with the phone that is keeping it from seeing the updates from Tmobile. And maybe it has to do with the Update_Mango.xap that alters something on the phone. I guess my question is, by using the methods in this thread and Ansar's, would that keep your phone from receiving firmware updates from the carriers? Or has anyone who has unlocked up to Mango beta, then went back to Nodo on Tmob, received the firmware update? Thanks a lot!
Also, wasn't sure if this should be in General, Q&A or what. Chose this section since it stems from the use of hacks in Development section. Please feel free to direct me accordingly.

I think if you update to Mango beta, you possibly miss the firmware update of HTC for HTC phones, or people who update to Mango earlier.
Just roll all the way back to 7004 and 7008 if you have HTC device and get the update with New Radio and Firmware.

Ok, maybe I will just roll all the way back. I just didn't want to as I have to reinstall EVERYTHING and set my phone back up the way I like it. I assume that you saw the update after rolling back as I saw your other thread?
I rolled back to my NoDo update that I had right before upgrading to the first Mango beta. I still had the beta version of Zune, and the phone prompted me to update the HTC Update, which installed fine, and then I continued to upgrade to beta 2.
Keep in mind that the HTC Update is going out slowly, not all at once, so not everyone will get prompted all the time.

Ok, well that's reassuring. I think my problem is that I didn't do a backup of Nodo before I updated to the Mango Beta. Later on (after provisioning the phone and such to receive the Mango beta), I rolled back to Nodo, set up everything again and then did a backup. You are right though in the fact that I could just not possibly have received the HTC update as of yet.
Did you unbrand your phone? That was my problem. I have mango installed but my phone was unbranded. All I did was rebrand it and got my firmware update from Tmobile for my HTC HD7.

This is why it it mentioned multiple time across this forum to copy that NoDo backup to a safe place. The only fix, is if your device has NoDo & easier ROMs to flash. Flash one & re-install all your apps.
I have 4 backups of nodo,but zune won't do restore with nodo(.Will i still able to update my phone to official mango?7720 RTM to Official Mango???
EDIT:Yes i fix the problem,i did hard reset of the phone and now zune can finaly read old backup of nodo. Me so happy.

Terribly confused En, absolutely need more NCE
I used the official HTC update that was leaked last week to update my Trophy. All went smoothly. However, I got no updates afterwards. I then tried the zune trick to no avail.
I can't restore back to NoDo either with my restore file! What can I do? I wanna get back on the Zune update bandwagon. Any body with success stories?/Help

I think you would better find an appropriate NoDo ROM and flash it back, so you can perform the update through Zune without problem.
