7740 and IS HTC Update pushed to 7 Pro - Windows Phone 7 General

I woke up this morning to an alert on my HTC 7 Pro that I had a software update available - "hooray", I thought, expecting just to get 7740.
To my surprise I was also pushed the HTC Update with Internet Sharing enabled, so my 7 Pro is now fully 'mangoed'. Don't know if any of you guys have had this too?
Annoyingly, though, HTC didn't think to fix the MAC address issue (changes every time you reboot), so my phone can /be/ a wireless hotspot, but can't /connect/ to my wifi network. Damn

I got this update today too for my 7 pro. I thought it was weird since I'm on DFT v2 I didn't think we got updates.

i guess it depends on your carrier and where you are located
maybe origin of phone plays a part too
i'm in singapore, where the 7 pro is not available, but i still got it
if it matters, my 7 pro is a unbranded set from the uk

Only IS for HD7 7720 not getting 7740 yet.

And nothing for me on the trophy yet -.-

Well so far I only know of Mozart, HD7 and 7 Pro geting updates so I'm sure you will get it eventually if your carrier supports it, it's just a matter of time.
Incidentally, I've very please that the update isn't carrier dependent, as this means for sure that they can't detect you using it if you're on an unbranded device

I got the 7740.16 update yesterday but if it is supposed to enable IS,, I'll be damned if I can find it...
Did it just show up in the program list for the rest of you? Is there something that needs to be changed?
Thanks,,

Internet Sharing is located in Settings, between Bluetooth and Email+Accounts
At least it is on my HTC 7 Pro, updated to 7740 (which if you look carefully includes the HTC update at the bottom) yesterday.
If you install a later update, all earlier updates are installed also. It looks to me like the HTC Update was activated slightly before 7740, so is getting packaged in at the same time.

Hi andrew
can you run WP7 Update Cab Sender to read the update log and share url of the HTC Update.

Can we force update like 7720? and how it's done.

I updated my unbranded hd7 to 7740 but still didn't have the IS. sucks!

If you tell me where i can find the update url in the log, i can give you that.
But if you want i backuped the downloades Zune Cab (about 40 MB), so i can upload it to RS.

Kies 1.5.1.10074.2 (released)

Just started up my Kies program and it has reported an update available to 1.5.1.10074.2
Downloading it now through the Kies program itself as I can't find it on Samsung Firmwares Web.
If someone has a direct link to the download at Samsung would be great as I can't find it listed agains the Galaxy S on their website software downloads.
Size is 123MB and slow as. It's downloading 1 file at a time.
is there any update for the driver?
Updating now,
From Australia
edit: mine seems to be only 71meg :/
Seems much better, with connecting to phone.
Just turned off USB Mass Storage, and turned on Kies, in phone settings, and connected straight away.
New to Android.
Been using WM phones.
Thought I would give Android a try after reading a lot of posts on various forums and news sites.
Kies was the first program I installed and I never had any problems with it connecting.
I had read a lot of posts to the contrary.
Mine updated today as well.
After update, phone connected fine, as usual.
​
Anyone tested the sync yet. Contacts, Calendar etc as these were an issue for some people.
Updating now. Its 71MB.

Got my phone yesterday, so this was the version of Kies that I downloaded today (didn't know it was newly released). The Sync with Outlook contacts and calendar went without a problem
new Kies update
Downloading it now, it is taking forever, at 92mb now out of 123mb.. how is this going to make my Galaxy S better? in what way?
it must not be available in he uk then as i have just run a check in keis, in the update menu and it says its the current version 1.5.1.10071_32 so either my kies is shot or it cant find the update.
ok so i just ran it again and it has found an update, i have no idea what yet but it has found something.
Should be a complete update but it will be slow as it downloads file by file. So annoying.
yes it did take forever and an age, i actually went out and left it updating, took something like 2.5 hours to download 127mb on a 20mbit fiberoptic cable line.
Now available on their website
lets hope they have speeded it up somewhat ? ?

Hidden WIFI ?? HTC HD7

Hi guys i just got a HD7 connects to my wifi at home with no issues, has a WEP security code, but it dosent connect at my office which is WPA2 i think, is there a way to solve this or am i stuck for now?
It dosent even show up on the available networks at all by the way not just cant connect.
Thanks
WP7 currently can't connect to wireless networks with a hidden SSID from what I've read. WPA2 should be no problem. You should really upgrade from WEP at home, its easily cracked.
Yea i know lol... im in a very remote location so not to worried.
HTC just releases an app called Hidden Wi-Fi. Just google it and you'll see the link. Only problem is i can't see it in my hd7 marketplace. Anyone help?

Goto the marketplace, select apps, then do a search for hidden Wifi.

The problem with the app I am having is that it tells me:

I am currently on No-do, so I don't know what else to do.

Next OTA

Keep checking the following link for future updates...
http://www7.htc.com/uk/help/htc-one-x/#download
Its weird that the info only shows on a sub domain and not www.htc.com?
Also looks like the info was put on there before the 1.29 OTA was released ^_^ not 100% sure as i have not long found it..
excellent thanks a lot we finally have a changelog
Power Managment Update for HTC Europe & Middle East on 5.1.2012
HTC Sense Version: 4.0
Android Version: 4.0.3
Software number: 1.29.401.7
Rollout date: May 1, 2012
Starting May 1, 2012, HTC will be rolling out a system update for the HTC One X. This update will only be available for HTC Europe & Middle East customers and can be installed to the device over the air.
This system update includes several enhancements and bug fixes such as the following:
. Improved power management
. Enhanced HTC Car user experience for navigation voice prompts
. Camera improvements for HDR mode and video snapshot
. Improved incoming call alert speed
. Added device volume control when in DLNA mode (HTC Media Link HD required)
* Reminder: You must have at least 35% battery remaining in your phone before you begin any update. Charging your phone during an update may interfere with the process.
** How to update: From the Home Screen on your device go to MENU> Settings> About phone> Software updates> Check now

Awesome, i guess i won't have to skim through every thread now just to check if there's anything out yet
thanks!
As most of Europe already havve this update is it fair to say the UK will not get it
Sent from the Beast that is the HTC One X in white......
Unless some admin at HTC did not do their job correctly causing the update to fail to become available for the UK I must say, I am starting to think the same...1.28 never took this long & doubt they only have one or two servers dishing out the update...the wifi is the only issue I have & would like to see if this fixes it! I might actually never buy HTC again if I don't get any joy.
*UPDATE: Just called HTC & they confirmed that the update (1.29) is scheduled for the UK but their "server" is on automatic rotation so they can't confirmed when I will get it - either way they asked me to dial in *#*#CHECKIN#*#* which forces your phone to check in with the update server and queue in for the update itself. It's been 10-15 mins and got nothing yet but if it comes in anytime today then this feature might be worth trying - will keep this post updated if I get an update before end of today.
Better get this update.. no reasons for us not.to get it in the UK!

You type in the numbers, so:
*#*#CHECKIN#*#*
will be typed as:
*#*#2432546#*#*
If you do it right, the keypad will vanish after the last * and "checkin succeeded" will appear on your status bar.
PS Are you any relation to Simon and if so, can I have Cheryl Cole's number please?

Thanks, got the notification, I'm in South Africa.
I think our service providers need to verify it or test it or something prior to us getting it so I think we'll be in for a long wait still...
Hopefully it fixes the wifi bug, I have 5 days to return the phone for one that will connect to WPA enabled wifi, maybe I should just do it?
Ah it worked.
Just hoping the final goal is achieved...
The thing that i don't understand is, I got this update the day that i bought my HOX, a little bit over 2 weeks ago!
Which is as you can guess before 1 May 2012.... which makes me think that am I going to get another update or that was it?
Cuz if this is the power management update i can tell you guys that it sucks big time, since i cannot get more than 2+ hours screen on time, no matter what i do!!! Never got even close to 3 hours.
For the flickering: it's almost not visible, only if i use it with full brightness in dark places you can see it apart from that my phone was perfect in every way from day one and it still is.
My only problem is battery...

Don't get me wrong, i ain't complaining cuz by my standards the instant OTA update was waaaay too cool when i got the phone and especially after seeing/reading lots of software related issues here on XDA (which i don't have any!)

Software Version update to 5.0.2/ Build LWX49K

Hi All. I was wondering how many others have started getting the 5.0.2 update? (I was lazy and instead of taking screenshots... I just took some quick pics with my phone of the update info to post for anyone interested).
I received the update this evening and tried to find some information about the changes through an internet search. The update looks to be fairly minor and what I found says it should provide bug fixes and an update to Google Play services. Most of the info I've found discusses the update rolling out for the Moto 360, but I also found people who are reporting their LG G Watch R got the update too.
So far, the update is running smooth for me with no problems. I'm hoping it will continue to work well. I'm loving my Sony Smartwatch 3 and I'm glad to see that we got the update so quickly. :good: I just thought I'd check to see who else got the update and see how it's running for them.
Yes, I also got my update this morning, but am not sure what is new or updated...
Got it at Malaysia, about 3pm....
Waiting for the update...
What about this compass problem:

Dumb question time. Does the watch get the update via bluetooth or do you connect it to your PC via usb.
I am in Australia and my watch says it is up to date on 5.0.1 so I guess it is on it's way downunder sooner or later.
I'm just gettinh this update.

I received the update wirelessly without plugging it in to the computer (I'm guessing by bluetooth). The watch just gave a notification to swipe left to install the update. I read on one website where the watch should be charged to at least 80%... but I don't know if it has to be charged that that much to get the update. Im guessing that like other OTA'S, the update is being released in phases, so it's hard to say exactly when each person will get the update.

Wow... I didn't realize there was a problem with the compass since I don't really use it. I see where you also posted on the Sony forum to ask if the update fixes the problem. Hopefully someone will be able to respond quickly. If I get some time, I'll try to test it out.... but it will probably be a while.

First thing I noticed is tilt to wake is way better... is it just me? I used to have to do ridiculous contortions to make the screen wake previously.

No update showing on my watch here in Adelaide, that is weird.
It must have gotten blown in on the cyclone but typical Adelaide, backwards.
I haven't ether in U.S (florida)
Got the notification around 20 minutes ago here in Oregon, USA. It looks like the update was delivered "OTA" to the watch via BlueTooth in the background, as I did not have to sit there and watch a download progress meter. My first inclination that there was an update was when the watch gave me a notification saying "Update ready to be installed!". Of course I swiped left only to be told I need to charge up first
I've got my watch charging now, will install ASAP. Annoying that there is no official changelog or blog post explaining what is new / fixed, just speculation.

Not really that strange.. they send the updates out based on hardware batches... it has little to do with geographical locations..
for the record I haven't seen the update yet either, in Perth WA
I've got mine last night , here in italy, after messing up/ stressing my poor smartwatch 3 i reset the watch.. tried to install " new update " via Sony Pc companion.. than reset it again.. in the end the " poor " watch gave up and sent me " downloading update " ...
i didn't notice anything " new " so probably some fixes !
