let us pray
They say the rom can only be flashed once by a dev once it's downloaded. I wonder if that's going to be a problem for some dev teams.
I'm curious about how much security Microsoft has put into this, and how it's gonna work. If it's an image, we can extract it. If it's one of those CAB-based updates, we can.. obtain it. But here's my guess-Microsoft probably added some serious security, given as they know what we attempt, and there may very well be some activation involved in this.
Anyone who gets it install wanna comment?
Actually the big issue for me, when I read the mile long remarks you have to accept to get it is this:
you can't update to the final Mango without rolling back first to the backup you do now.
So when final Mango will come out, I will lose all my sms, game progress, etc I got from now to this winter. I'm not sure I'd like to that
Did anyone of you already get a email by Connect?
I am registered via Dreamspark and didn't get a mail yet.
Do only the paying people getting the update and students not?

That doesn't sound too logical to me, but will try it as soon as I get the email.
EDIT: It's true. Update up to 10 (3 for students), get one replaced if something goes wrong.
It makes perfect sense to me — they'll only replace one phone per account if the update bricks your phone. But if you're willing to take the risk, you can update more phones.

Here's the source, finally a word from Microsoft:
http://windowsteamblog.com/windows_phone/b/windowsphone/archive/2011/09/21/where-s-mango-an-update-on-timing.aspx
question....what abt those of us running RTM?
should we restore to nodo?
and do we get the firmware updates too if there is no need to restore back to nodo?

If you are running the Beta it will definitly be impossible to upgrade from the Beta to the final, carrier and OEM approved version of Mango.
Most likely this will be the case for the leaked RTM as well but you never know. If you have to roll back to NoDo you will lose every Text and save games etc. created after you left NoDo, so downgrading to NoDo now will at least allow you to keep those after downgrading to NoDo.
However, if it turns out that you can upgrade from the leaked RTM to the final thing, then you won't lose anything and you might wanna take the risk and wait for the rollout to begin.
Awesome news
Just saw the post on twitter, and I must say that I'm pretty exited!
I'm actually gonna wipe my phone before the update. Some may wonder why, and it's simple: My region thingy won't work in Norway before Mango, HAH!
The wait is almost over y'all!

Yeah I read that as well but the instructions might just be "downgrade to NoDo using your backup" etc. Time will tell and fortunately it's not that far away.
The only reason they made the announcement is because we now know when Apple will reveal the next iPhone which basically means no living sould will give a damn about Mango. Way to go Microsoft, good luck with that!
I'll believe when I see it. Until then, it's all rumor and speculation.
There should have been a disclaimer that "unless you're on the AT&T network, then you'll need to wait until December or January since Mango is complex and needs to be tested before release."
Can anyone tell me why carriers have anything to do with updates at all? Carriers simply provide the infrastructure for a phone to work. What have they got to do with anything? It's something I have never understood. My ISP isn't testing my Windows 7 updates before I install them, why would they do so on my phone?

Probably because the phone has a radio in it and it's different from carrier to carrier..

It has to do with service compatibility. They make sure the phones perform properly with the various services the carriers provide. Plus, on top of that, they make sure the phone that bares their logo and name performs to their specific standards. Any malfunctioning phone can potentially give the carrier a bad rep.
I know from experience that a phone sold outright...unlocked and from the handset maker...can be buggy as hell. Whereas the exact same phone under the carriers moniker is a sweet and well functioning phone. This doesn't apply to Apple, though. Apple is in full control of any and all updates for the iPhone. But I bet the carriers who carry iPhones are allowed testing before updates are issued.
I'm glad this is more concrete than the fall. Lets see if ATT keeps to their words and updates my damn phone in a week or two.
Not even fall yet and an official announcement. Good job.
Lots of talk about Software updates, carriers shutting down phones, limiting charging..etc....Is there one sure fire way to prevent any OTA updates to cripple our phones? Would rooting the phone and keeping the stock ROM (with modifications) work to help us keep our phones from being crippled? What if we installed a completely different ROM?
How do you stop the carriers (Verizon in my case) ? I currently have a message saying "System Update ready to install". I'm not installing it, and hopefully they can't make me. I'll let the message sit there until I have to return it.
I open to rooting, flashing a custom ROM, but I'd rather root and keep the stock ROM. What are my options?

All this over a mobile phone? I can fully understand such groups being active about saving the planet or blah blah blah but a mobile phone? I can only speculate at this point and taking into consideration the trouble and problems in your cause that you must have an awful lot of free time......? You do realise that this device is even banned in hell? :silly: How can you live knowing you have to monitor where you use or travel with your 'mobile' phone? Irrespective of Samsung and the carriers trying to screw owners out of existence, the constant need to be aware of ones travel with a mobile phone would drive me potty! Ownership today of this phone must be like walking down the blade of a knife?
I guess it could be total dedication to the mobile....?
Or ......? I have no idea?
Any or all the above scenarios are time consuming and very myopic. In a few months a new S8 range will be introduced and some time within the next 9 months a new Note 8?
One thing for sure the Note 7 has reached cult status :good: :laugh:
Wow I miss my Note 7, fabulous mobile in every respect. Pig of a situation, absolute pig!

Ok. Do not power up again until you watched this tutorial. You can postpone the Update twice, so nothing is löst until now. Good Luck!
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=FG3iSOgXZB0
how to stop the update till they get us too.....
keep clicking update and dismiss until you get an update window without a dismiss. You then have 15s or so to power off your device or it will auto update. For those that had this autoupdate happen to you... this is how.
If you force it to that window when your looking. You have the opportunity to power off and break the update code. You get an error message on power up that states the update failed and to contact samsung. Power down again deny any reports sent. you may get one.. and this fixes the update.. till they figure it out and push it on us too!
Good luck fellow s7'ers screw apple. screw samsung for bowing to the US oligarchy/apple there is no better phone on the market currently #NoDowngrade
ALL THE BS IS UNREAL... whats next?

Download the July OTA from Google and sideload it using ADB. Directions on how to do it are on the page I just linked to.
I know I can but why OTA doesn't come?
Ask Google. But really, does it matter why when you have the ability to fix the problem?
Because is strange that a brand new device stopped updating. But I know, a solution is a solution.
Not that strange. The rollout of OTAs if I recall is staged. It's possible you're one of the last to get it, or other issues such as network quality could affect it. The only people who would know for certain is Google. I couldn't tell you myself because I download the full OTA every month: I'm rooted and incremental OTAs cause issues.

True but that should only take like 2 weeks at the MOST. It should never take until after the next update is out. There have been two updates released since then. We are less than 2 weeks away from the August update.

We don't know which area this release is targeted at, we are guessing. Possible guesses:
1) It is for US and EU
2) It is for EU, US to follow later
3) It is for US, EU to follow later.
My guess is 1.
Normally, I'd be all over this, but with such a vague listing, I'll wait it out a little.
Well at this rate my P6P will be on eBay soon, can't be doing with much more freezing and bad signal
Is this the same update that I've just received which is about 41.3mb?
