I think it has to be the same RM, download the Nokia Data Package Manager, and search for your RM-number you should be able to load any of the ROMs available there, go for the one with the highest firmware number

Hi John,
You won't be able to flash your AT&T phone with that firmware because your phone is RM-808 PC 059M7R4. Whereas the firmware you're looking at is meant for a RM-823 PC 059N4K5. So it won't work on your device. Not to mention that this firmware is a SWAP package which are only used by Nokia when changing motherboards in their phones before the original product code can be re-programmed (if they could be bothered).
You could ask at your nearest Nokia Care point if they can install any additional languages to your phone which I know they can do that for Symbian phones but not sure for Windows phones.

Not until the at&t variants are released.
Rm-823 is released AT&T is an rm-808
Sent from my Lumia 900 using XDA Windows Phone 7 App
Has anyone tried installing the 823 onto the 808? i would be curious to know what happens or what the changes are? In a lot of industries, the model changes but the inards don't.
It will not flash the 823 to an 808. You can pick the rom, but when it tries to flash it barfs.
YEah in this case they are different hardware. from what i can figure the RM-823 has the GSM, 3G and HSDPA bands where the RM-808 has the 4G/LTE bands. In most cases Lumias have all radio and enabled by software but not so with the AT&T models.
so there are loads on there now which make me think that they are getting ready for roll out, would be a nice Chrimbo present.
2 Questions, if you see an EU variant for White, will it work with an EU phone? My current is
Type Designator RM-823
Model Name NOKIA Lumia 900
Product Code 059P5N9
Software Version 2175.2503.8779.12301
Next question is looking on xda etc I must be blind, I see lots of people say they are rocking 7.8 but can not how to get to it. Any pointers to a good post would be happily received.
Cheers
Just finished installing Software Version 2175.2905.8858.12480, Finland variant and apart from some confusion with the Finnish language (until I could change it to English) when first starting up it seems to be running fine.
So far all I've tested is connecting WiFi to my wireless network and then wirelessly tethering the phone to my laptop and it all seems to be working as it should.
Will do some more testing of various functions and let you know if there are any problems.
Now to setup my Home screen tiles properly (finally)

Also as long as it's an rm-823 and the country variant has the same bands as your country then your all good. Worst thing that can happen is your reception won't be as good if the variant you flash from does not have the same bands.
If it doesn't work well, just reflash a different one, all good

No. Not even when the RM-808 is out. It HAS to be the at&t version. Rogers won't flash on a at&t RM-808.

successfully updating my 900 to 7.8..mine is from Singtel Singapore..and no..my variant is not out yet..but i just flash it using Sweden variant and all i can say is everything work like a charm.. except theres no Bluetooth file sharing and ringtone maker yet..i think, its unfinished rom @[email protected] using Windows 8 x64.
Ps: anyone getting their Lumia not recognize by the NCS, try this:
1. Install the driver from Programfiles/nokia/nokia care suit/ driver..install everything, be sure for ur x86 or x64.
2. Restart windows.
3. Avoid using any USB 3.0 when connecting ur phone to ur PC/Laptop.
Edit: as i read on some others article, theres someone that said their 7.8 have the Bluetooth file sharing and ringtone maker..and most of them using India variant..but, too lazy to flash again xD anyone care to try? and i dont think theres a big diffrent between variant, well im using Singapore set and successfully flash using Sweden variant, so theres no big diffrent between each other and basically..u can used any variant you like, except if u are on at&t as their Lumias have an LTE which diffrent from all of us
All you need is the windows driver on the root of that drivers directory. I confirmed it today if your system is 64bit install that if it's 32 just install that one.

[Q] How to flash RM-823 on my RM-808

Hi all!
I have a question.
Is there any chance, or is there anybody who succesfully flash RM-823 rom on RM-808.
Do you have any ideas how to change these number? I don't care about LTE, because I don't have it in my country, so I would be really grateful if you help me.
Thanks
Vasek
You can't. The 7.8 update should be on Navifirm soon.
Well but I also need it due to language. So I hope there must be some kind of way how to do it...via registry edit or smthg like that?.

Nope. It's the bootloader that's blocking you from doing it. You should be able to install languages with the cab sender, but I have no idea. Never done it.

You don't care about the LTE, but your phone is an LTE device, so whether you care or not, still your phone is different from RM-823. You have to wait for your variant or buy a non-LTE phone so you can flash it right away. as far as i know, its not because of the number (eg: rm-823,rm-808), so even if you change the number, no you still can't flash the RM-823 variant. an LTE device require a different driver than RM-823.
ps: and yes, like exiva said, if your variant is out on navifrm, you gonna have to unlocked your bootloader to be able to flash the 7.8 update.

Confirmed CAN NOT!
Cause I tried.
well, so when I flash the same bootloader as 823 has...it would be possible, but if I can't flash it, it is not.
MyOpicWorm - how did you try it and when did you end? What was the problem or error which you got please?
Thanks

Yes it is, but it is also surely GSM mobile, because there are no LTE devices in our country. There is only GSM, so it must be also GSM, that was what I tried to say.
I don't care about it, because I don't need it. Understand?

If you can change the product code to one of RM-823, then you can flash 823 to 808 and vice versa. On Symbian device, I did a few times. However, I could not find any software which can change the product code for Luma 900 yet.
It would be superb if you find any software which can do it. I also googled and binged many pages, but can't find solution

They are different hardware and it's not possible. nor would you want to really. why are you wanting to do this?
Cause I would like to have my language (0405-Czech) there. And I don't know how to do it.
I downloaded both roms via navifirm, but don't know what now. I also downloaded CAB file, but no chance how to send it to phone. Cab sender says that no update available...so any help please?

You can't install another firmware if it is not suitable for your device.
Upgrade it to 8858 and after you have to install all the updates your language until 8858.

The ATT Lumia does both 3G and LTE.
Even if you could flash the ROM on it, most likely = bricked phone due to different hardware

First of all please search before opening new thread, this question has been asked too many time..you can't yet flashig AT&T phone bcoz no variant support RM-808 as of now. AT&T device has an LTE connection which is different from RM-823 phone. even if you can change the product code, RM-823 variant don't have an LTE driver and will likely brick/no connection for call,sms,online your phone. All you can do right now is wait for RM-808 variant to come out. Nothing can be done.
More than that, while you can't change the product code. It's more than the code, it's the signature checked against the bootloader.

[Q] lumia 900 rm-823 Dload

Hello friends...,
i need to flash a lumia 900, rm-832 without a dload osbl. i can only access rm 808 from the ATF team.
please help!
thanks.
First, this is not an ATF support forum, although we do have at least one ATF developer among our members.
With that said - bootloader-wise, the RM-808 and RM-823 are the same. You can safely use RM-808 mode with the RM-823.
Note that a new release of ATC is expected soon, which will be able to install an unlocked Qualcomm OSBL. It's currently being tested internally. See the "recover/upgrade" thread.

Lumia 900 AT&T Product code 059L6S0 , but RM-823

Dear all,
I have a Lumia AT&T with product code 059L6S0. It is now using custom rom 7.8 by china ( have XapDeployer and WP7 RootTools ). But when I come to Nokia Care suite to check, it display RM-823 ( Product code 059L6S0 must be RM-808 ).
Now, I dont know if my phone already has qualcomm bootloader and how to install another rom to have Facebook and Google in people hub ( China Rom doesnt include these features). If I use NCS to flash a ship rom AT&T from Nokia, will my devices will be relocked again ?
Thank you and best regards.
