Now we can confirm that the Nokia Lumia 800 devices will also get this Tango update soon. The build 1750.805.8773.12140 is already available in Nokia servers which you can download via Navifirm tool. We expect this update would bring Internet sharing feature along with other Windows Phone Tango features such as enhanced MMS capabilities, etc,. If you are a Nokia Lumia 800 owner, get ready to enjoy these features!

Hi all,
I am fairly new to Windows phone (I owned an HTC HD7 a year ago but sold it quite quickly) and I am mostly used to Android.
I of course know that there is NO way to get the same level of customization on WP as there is on Android but... Is it possible to "port" the Custom Rom from the Lumia 800 to our 900 devices?
Seeing as how the 800 is our devices "little brother" I cant see the hardware being THAT much different than our 900 but I could be wrong.
Can anyone share their insight on this?
Thanks,
Answer is: NO. At all first need unlock bootloader to flashing custom roms. (Unsigned/signed etc). Next one the hardware is different. As I know Nokia Lumia 900 using Snapdragon S2 CPU. But Lumia 800 doesn't. Next other optons Gyroscope, FFC etc. And finally what is point to porting ROM Lumia 800 to Lumia 900?

Thanks for the info. As I said, I am still quite new to WP7 (7.5) and I was just wondering as it seems that there is a CUSTOM ROM available for the Lumia 800 but absolutely nothing available for our 900 devices which I find a bit weird as this is supposed to be the "flagship" Nokia WP7 device so Im not sure why there is no development on it yet.
Over in the Android world here on XDA there are many ports done between different MANUFACTURERS which obviously have different hardware and I thought that since these were both Nokia devices that something may be able to be done.
As for your question on what the point of flashing the Custom 800 ROM to our 900's... Number 1... It is based on Tango and some of the added features available in that custom ROM would be nice to have on our devices... See below for details...

I want the home such as windows 8 with all updates
This is not yet available and won't be until fall. Tango is an intermediate Update which only brings some Bugfixes, additional MMS support and that's pretty much it.
What you want to have on your device is Windows Phone 7.8 which will include the new start screen which won't be finished before fall.
Now that 7.8 is round the corner (may be 1-2 months more), I dont think its good idea to update to WP Tango. I would rather wait for 7.8 for my Omnia W.
a) 7.8 will come out after 8.0 itself
b) Update path to 7.8 goes through Tango.

You mean I wont able to upgrade to 7.8 if I dont have Tango currently on my Omnia W?
Yes.
What's the issue? Just wait for your phone to offer you Zune update and boom, you are updated in 5 minutes.

7.8 is still quite far away (the presentation said that 7.8 would be released after 8.0, and we have no date for 8.0 yet) so we don't know how the upgrade path will be.
But, historically, upgrades have been incremental on Windows Phone - you have to upgrade to each version before going to the next. Zune has handled this automatically until now.
So it is fairly safe to assume that you will need to upgrade to Tango before 7.8, even if only for a second...
PS: the Tango deployment started last week and is apparently still throttled - most people have not yet been given the option of upgrading...
I got 3 upgrades on my Samsung Omnia W after trying forced steps. First Phone got upgraded to 8112, then in 2nd try with same steps it upgraded to 8773. Then it automatically performed 3rd upgrade when it installed some update provided by Samsung.
Hope 7.8 would not need such forced steps
ookk guys thanks to all : Risata:: Risata:: Risata:: Risata:: Risata:: Risata:
Windows Phone 7.8 can not be too far off, with a version of the OS showing up on Navifirm for the Nokia Lumia
This means if you are so inclined and do not mind losing all your data you could flash the OS to your phone right now.
Windows Phone 7.8 will eventually bring an updated start screen, Bing wallpapers, a child-lock feature and for Nokia handsets Bluetooth file transfer and a ring tone maker, amongst other features to older Windows Phone handsets.

Yes, and this OS WP7.8 from official upgrade Nokia is differs from the first edition packages.
WP 7.8 by Zune for Nokia now rolling out
On the Dutch site WP7.nl are the first reactions on the update to WP7.8 by Zune, so not only true the Navifirm software but also for users that are using Zune is the update started for the Nokia 800. This also means that update by Zune save your settings, mail etc
Not yet for ATT US
No, it is not available for all Lumias.. The Lumia 900 RM-808 for ATT in the US does not have the 7.8 update in NaviFirm.
yes not for all Lumias. is there any news about when will we get WP7.8 update on lumia 900 for ATT? or can i flash with RM-823 Firmware?
Hello dear collegues nokia lumia 900 owners. I am one of the brave ones who dared to flash wp 7.8 on december through nokia care. As we all know by doing that - bluetooth share app became unavailable. Well gues what - i just managed to install it because it has been updated to support wp 7.8. Here is the link to wpcentral, where you can find additional information ant a link to the app:
http://www.wpcentral.com/nokia-blue...ersion-2-makes-us-think-windows-phone-78-near
so update your lumias and use the app freely,because i can confirm it works no news about ringtone maker app.

hi i know its old post and all but i recently purchased L900 from eBay. its at&t unlocked version and when i goto Bluetooth app it says these is not available for you're device :-/ now i m ruining win 7.8 at-least tat about phone says
os version 7.10.8858.136 is there ant way to fix it? any different rom or something like tat ?
Same Problem
I am having the same problem.
Nokia Lumia 900
OS - 7.10.8858.136
firmare - 2175.2307.8858.12480
I am ablr to download the app from market place and install it, butr bluetooth share is not working
I'm new to Windows Phone and I'm getting my L 950 soon but I've been doing a lot of research recently about "Project Astoria" and the apps Windows Phone is lacking, while I can live without them I still think had MS kept this feature it would've gained them more customers (this was going to be the reason why I considered buying a year or so ago when it was announced). Now before anyone tells me to get an Android, I really want to try out WP because it looks cool and slick and has all the MS apps one would need, minus Google Apps and some Android apps, which are a must for some.
P.S. I really enjoy modding and doing things not normally possible, I almost do this on every device I own even game consoles.
TLDR; So the theories would be as follows:
Downgrading phones to ROMs that had Project Astoria Aka 10240? Which had it for a few phones
Creating a custom rom with Astoria libraries and files to re-enable the function
Wait for the rumoured x86 emulation on ARM, this'll mean we might be able to get BlueStacks or a similar app running through emulation, so emlation in emulation in emulation, lol.
Pray and hope for Microsoft to restore Project Astoria.
Thoughts?
This isn't possible due to MS actually having a CI whitelist for services, and the key component of astoria actually is blacklisted on newer builds, starting the service won't work at all.
Since it's about theories why don't developers try something like android emulation on a website

Then why not just use the actual company/app website?
Kernel is unlikely to support ADSS as a pico provider anymore. The Kernel only allows a single pico provider to be installed and it's hard coded to be LXSS for desktop. Wouldn't be surprised if it's now set to LXSS in the mobile builds too, if it's allowed at all. It's quite possible the pico provider interfaces have changed since the last build with ADSS in it The LXSS kernel devs are unlikely to care at all about keeping compatibility with year old ADSS.
BTW The Field Medic application still have ETW provider "Windows_Brigde_for_Android" available I hope Microsoft will not make it standard feature becasue I want to stay isolated from the Google always-vulnerable-crap pathetic OS as much as possible. That's why I use Microsoft OS and services.
can i downgrade my lumia 730 DS and install the build supporting project astoria..?? will it work n how to go to that build??? suggestions needed!!

i dont understand why people want this back... project astoria apps worked terrible, much worse than MS apps.... if you want android apps, buy frikin' android phone.
There are a couple of possibilities to use astoria:
10240 ROM works on: Lumia 640, 640 XL, 930
Insider Versions 10149 / 10166 (10512, 10514, 10536) works on: Pretty much any Lumia / Phone released before the launch of TH2.
