A thread for those who can't force Mango

Many of us have problems forcing mango onto our devices. Figured I'd start a thread rather than have everyone jumping threads. Let me know if you guys have any luck!
Is it that 3 second step cause I had to try it like 30 times before I got it to work
I follow the instructions but no matter what I do I either get the "Your phone is up to date" message or the "Can't check for updates right now. Please try again later"
Worst part is my dad just got home and I tried to do the trick with his and I got it on the first try.......
Ok, I created an account just for this. Finally got mine to work and this is what the problem is. In my house I have my PC, my fiances laptop who is also playing l4d2 on our 360, connected to our net. So I have a bit of latency between me and the M$ servers.
1.What I did was went to the update tab and let it tell me there were none, then switched tabs.
2.I opened notepad, clicked the update tab in zune and counted; once it told me my phone was up to date I typed the number into notepad.
3.Then I switched tabs, waited a second or two, and repeated step 2 about 4 more times. I averaged about 15 seconds.
4. Knowing it took about 15 secs to tell me i was up to date I waited longer than just 1-2 secs before disconnecting, and instead waited about 12-13 secs. After about 5 times I got the update message, and am updating now.
Instead of manually disconnecting my Ethernet cable EVERY SINGLE TIME P) I just opened my network connections, and disabled my Connection; it made it a bit faster and more accurate.
Hope this helps, and please spread the word!
Edit: I'm on a Samsung Focus v.1.3 with AT&T (I hear the 1.4 won't be able to be updated until next month )
Edit 2: So, as mentioned before this was a 3 part update, after the initial update it still told me there were no updates, so I had to go through the same process. I got the second update, and am now (I believe) installing Mango itself
Tried disconnecting by disabling network, 7-8 secs after clicking update, works like charm, thanks.
No matter what i try i just cant force the mango update..
please help..ive tried everything...i either get unable to check for updates or up to date
Unlocked Htc Hd7 originally on O2 uk but now using and orange uk sim..
it worked for me previously on NODO
try this
FOR THOSE THAT IT WONT WORK FOR READ THIS!
click check for update like normal but have your phone in hand and ready to set to airplane mode at the time where you would normally dc your computers internet.
I did not have to dc my computers internet, just the phones and it worked perfectly for me.
In my case I had to switch to airplane mode at ~34 seconds.
It helps if you time it the first time and see how long it takes to tell you your phone is up to date and then subtract about a second. GL hope this helps

I timed and the time for me to get a response of up to date is 3 seconds. I tried disconnecting my usb wireless adapter and then ON airplane mode at 2 seconds, tried about 8 to 10 times each, didn't work. I'm using a HD7 with 7720 RTM.
optimus 7 with 7720 rtm, disconnect trick not working, i just hope that in a week or so, this update will be available for all, and i think this whole trying 100times to take out ethernet cable is not worth it.
I heard the difference between official and rtm is barely noticable, so lets just wait : )

I had both search for update options off, but I don't think it affected anything, and I'm not sure switching it to airplane mode would make much of a difference either. I think it's more about getting your net off at the EXACT moment. The second time I had to do it, I ended up having to try roughly 30 times, with a break in the middle to play some TF2 and blow off some steam , and my time kept fluctuating depending on who was doing what online. So it will be time consuming and an absolute pain, but that's only because we're doing something the Zune software wasn't intended for.
3 Seconds
3 seconds disconnect the LAN cable worked for me like a charm.
Force worked well for me. You really have to disable wireless within 1 split second.
Now d question is, if this forced update works for any of us, why don't Microsoft just push it to us. Is there a reason y it isn't pushed to us?

The reason they're doing a slow rollout, is so they can detect any problems and fix them before too many people have it. Say a feature that worked fine in beta, didn't work right when installed through zune, they would know when only 10% of it's users had it, instead of all of them. It's a great way of putting such a big update out there, but I'm impatient

So, after reading the posts in this thread I timed how long it took to show no upgrade, subtracted one, and then followed the instructions in this post, used the airplane switch -->on after that amount of time (for me it was 5sec) and immediately I got the message that an update was available (backing up as I type this). I realize that not all of my wishes for a perfect upgrade will be answered, it will be nice to have the latest OS from MS on my device (HTC ARRIVE)

我mango更新成功了`呢````不知道你呢`````呵呵
help needed please..ive again tried eveything but i still cant force the update..
in u.k......
Well, I get to the 7392 update part, but when finishing the update it always gives me the 80080140 error message: "Can't update your phone at this time. Please try again Later". Tried everything from the WP Support Tool to a factory reset and still no Mango. I have the Focus v1.3 so i don't have the v1.4 waiting period issue.
Seems like many of us on Mango RTM are not able to get the final OEM firmware update.
In the case of my trophy, my firmware & radio versions were obsolete & it leads to instability in the Bluetooth stack + occasionally touchscreen issue. Zune also occasionally hang when changing song.
HTC Connected Media doesn't work as well. It's not a showstopper but why can't MS just push those files to us now? It's actually pretty small. Are we the 2% that MS say aren't eligible?

Won't stay connected

Just got this watch. I had the Moto 360 before, it worked fine.
This doesn't want to stay connected. I have to reset the watch, uninstall Android Wear and re-install it, then it'll connect once. After that, it disconnects and won't connect again. So notifications, syncing, weather, etc don't work.
Looking at my phone in Android Wear it just says Connecting.... on the watch, it says disconnected. Going into Bluetooth settings doesn't do a damn thing either.
Try Bluetooth Auto Connect from Playstore, it´s working for me on a Note3 with Omega Rom
Thanks for the reply. I managed to sort it out... I missed the step to click "trust device" during the initial set up. I didn't realize that was a necessary step for the watch to stay connected. You'd think it'd just do it automatically.
I don´t know, if it´s automatic, but i have the function with klicking on "trust device", no change, only the "Blutetoot Auto Connect" app is working.
This piece of crap is doing it again. Once its been disconnected, it won't connect again without complelety startinh over and resetting everything.
I'll check out that app.
You know, people can bash apple all they want, but at least their **** actually works properly.
Hasn't happened in a while, but if mine won't connect I just go to the android wear app and disconnect the Zenwatch then connect again. Works every time...
Tried that, many times.. never works. That app doesn't work either.
Well this is a serious problem I've had the watch for about six weeks now it took awhile to get initial set up to begin with I was at the point to return it on the first day , then I don't know how but it just paired and started working fine , I was very happy until today turned the watch on it wasn't paired and I've literally been trying for hours to get this chit to connect with no luck I've reset it ,tried the app mentioned above no luck at this point I give up I bough it at best buy but I'm past the return period I'm going to try and find some customer service rep ,at this point I give up trying to get the watch to work,if anyone knows of a customer service phone number I would greatly appreciate it , or if anyone here has any helpful information , ,I'm pretty tech wavy. But I surrender at this point what a shame I really liked the watch but the aggravation factor is to much ,sorry for the.long rant but there's no where else to vent or look for help maybe together as a group we can find some answers again any help would be greatly appreciated......
did you forget the watch in your phones Bluetooth settings?

Thank's for replying but yes I've tried everything under the sun , just got home from work , going to see if I can't find a customer service number , if I can't get it resolved by the weekend I might as well throw 200$ in the Trash because That's where it's Going ....................:crying:
Go to settings / apps on your phone. Find google play services under running apps. See if device connection service is running. If not try rebooting your phone then the watch in that order and try to pair. You could also check if there is an update for play services and update if there is.

Same issue here, boxing up my ZenWatch and bringing it back to Best Buy today. Still within the 15 days. I really like the watch but these random disconnects are a killer. Most of the time it auto-reconnects but every now and then I have to reboot everything--which is kinda ridiculous if I'm out running.
At least I'll have a different watch with everything else the same for comparison sake and report back.
Have you tried uninstalling zenwatch manager? Mine started disconnecting after the last update, and uninstalling seems to have fixed my issue

I had the same problem I think the update from google services broke it.
unpair the watch from your phone then factory reset the watch and this is IMPORTANT pair your watch using "android wear" NOT the Bluetooth from the system phone
after I paired my watch using Android Wear now the watch stay connected and reconnect normally

After half a day working this seems to be the solution, thanks. :good:
Bad luck: two days later same problem persists (frequently disconnecting)
I am getting pretty tired of my Zenwatch not staying connected either. $200 is a lot of money for a watch that doesn't work right. It's had three or four updates since I bought it and it still sucks, should have sent it back the first week.
The Google nag to enable Google Now in the Android Wear screen is also a sore spot with me, if I wanted it enabled it would be enabled.
This whole "wearables" thing seems to be a poorly executed fad more than anything else, one that I'll be avoiding from here on out.
why would you have a watch that relies so heavily on google now and not enable it? connection has been just fine for me no several phones and software versions since I got it in January

Same here. I mean, it has disconnected maybe 3 times since I got it in November, but it hasn't been a big issue. Toggling BT on the phone reconnected it. I also agree with you about Google Now. It's central to how Wear works. Using a Wear device without Now would be like buying a car and trying to drive it without starting the engine.

You don't need Google now to benefit from owning this watch.
1. I like the ability to change watch faces and create my own with Watchmaker.
2. I can answer or dismiss a call from the watch.
3. Text and email notifications.
That's all I care about, anything else is an unnecessary distraction.

Anybody using Airplay to stream music?

After a while, about four to six minutes, it disconnects and the music keeps playing through the HTC 10 loudspeakers. I'm streaming to my Onkyo TX-RZ900 which works just fine when associated with my IMac Airplay.
No answers so far... I'm surprised I'm the only one trying to use this. Since Nougat, Airplay does not connect anymore, anyways.
I haven't tried since the Nougat update, but it did the same to me in Marshmallow. As far as I remember, it was quite random how long it was working for. Sometimes a minute or so, sometimes 5-10 mins. It was one of the features that convinced me to buy the HTC 10 originally, but had to learn living without it the end. But I'm very forgiving, cause otherwise I love this phone
Thanks for your feedback. It would be nice if you could give it another try now that Nougat is there.
Tried with Nougat. It appeared to have been connected a little bit longer, but I still got disconnected after a couple of mins. By a couple I mean like 2
Problem solved for me.
I use Adguard to get rid of ads on my phone. I finally understood it blocked Airplay by default, applied the correct settings, Airplay now works like a charm. I'm a happy camper.

Hmm...Is it still ok ever since? I don't use Adguard or anything similar and I'm on full stock rom. I'm wondering what's causing this on my phone...
You're right. It holded up pretty good for a few days, but now it disconnects just like it always did. What a shame.
Crap! It would be nice to find a solution for this - I think of this a lot more since we've started talking about it here...
What I find intriguing is that I can't see many people complaining about it on the internet and this makes me wondering if
a, it's a bug that only affects a small percentage of devices, but otherwise working fine
b, people don't know that HTC added Airplay support to HTC Connect
c, people having this phone don't have any Apple devices, because it's made by the enemy
I couldn't agree more.
But I must confess I had never heard of Airplay before I got my Onkyo receiver... Even if I own an IMac...
Killer feature in my opinion
When it works.
Not giving up. I disabled WiFi battery optimization in advanced WiFi settings, the connection has been flawless for the last few days. A step in the right direction?

Haha I already have I'll give this a go too and will report back with my results
Here's the newest twist: I don't know what happened, we moved house, but are using the same routers (2 Time Capsules), same Apple TV, same HTC 10 with full official nougat and yet it doesn't connect anymore It says "Unable to connect to Apple TV"
Tried
* wiping app data
* wiping cache partition
* restarting routers
* restarting Apple TV
* restarting HTC 10
No luck. My wife's HTC 10 does the same. It goes silent for a split second like it was connected, then the connection breaks and keeps playing on the phone. If I manually select Apple TV (kinda forcing it to reconnect), it throws the above error. In the same time, my MacBook Air and my iPad can AirPlay to the same Apple TV, so it's something with the phones. Since it kept disconnecting anyway, it's not a big loss, but I guees my tests end here for now. I'll try after the next system update, that might bring it back to life
That's unfortunate... I wish I could help. No clue what's going on with your set up, as I use no Apple devices.
My 10 works like a charm with my Onkyo receiver since I disabled the WiFi optimization, I'm amazed it was that simple.
I'll give that a go if/when it starts working again. It was turned on both on my phone and my wife's, so yeah, maybe this was the culprit.

Galaxy Watch 4G LTE

Hello everyone, I've had a problem for a few days. (I am from France)
I have a galaxy S10 running Android 10
And a Galaxy watch under tizen 4.0.0.4 (I'm waiting for 4.0.0.7)
The stand-alone mode works, but the remote connected mode (4G) no longer works. However, I am good in 4g on the phone and on the watch. Also, I have activated on galaxy wearable, the remote connection box. (see picture)
Is this a problem from Samsung? Watch? Phone? Thanks for your help ?

Sometimes I have to reboot watch to make it work
Good day to you I'm working on the assumption that it is something that has worked and stopped functioning temporarily.
I wouldn't worry about it too much to be honest.
The watch connects to the phone over LTE via some cloud servers, occasionally they have issues with getting the watch to connect with the phone effectively, it happened to me a few weeks back but sorted it's self out after a few hours.
If it's something that's been going on for a longer time than a day or so, then it's time to start troubleshooting.

thank you for the answer. I also think that it comes from samsung servers because even when my watch is connected by Wifi and the mobile in 4g (or wifi because I also tested) it does not work anymore. However, it's been over 2 days now, so I don't think it comes from the watch ... Am I wrong?
Hmmm, try uninstalling the wear app, then reinstall again, if that isn't working you can try resetting the watch to factory settings and try again, it is possible it's a Samsung service issue, definitely something isn't handshaking somewhere, 2 days seems a bit of a long time for it to be a service issue though :/
Well, I tested everything to find out where the problem could come from. However, less than one could say is that Samsung technicians are not ... How to say ... Responsive! And that's a shame. That said, the main thing is to have found (I hope) the solution, and that it could help people.
The problem came from the toggle of the request "notif arriving on lel" and which is sent to the samsung account and then that the watch receives it and by analyzing my samsung account (with a pc on the samsung site), it generates that the "cloud" part of my account was not active but in error (and no response from samsung on an e-mail that I sent to them, hence my amazement about the reactivity).
Suddenly, I had a second samsung account, I re-paired everything, put this new account in wearale (essential), checked on the samung site that cloud state "active" and the ca worked direct .....
So the mystery: why my cloud (which is used to receive notifications) was in error .... I would never know lol. Or was it a confluence between the 2 accounts? I don't think it worked before ... In advance, I completely deleted this account that had the error.
I hope this solution will be eternal lol and that it will help

General connectivity issues

Hey folks!
I just picked up the BS3 after being generally disappointed for most of a year with the Razer Phone 2. I got the EU version (I guess?) and have been having general issues with the wireless.
Periodically, almost the entire suite of wireless connectivity just drops. My WearOS watch (Ticwatch Pro 2020) will disconnect, and the custom watchface I use via Watchfaces disappears. Wifi usually keeps working so I may not notice the drop right away, but if I'm on my phone's cellular connection, nothing goes through even though it shows signal and LTE. In my car on my way home from work this morning I was on the phone with my captain, and the bluetooth connection to my car started cutting in and out, to the point that I had to turn bluetooth off to finish the call. There was no issue up to that point, while driving and listening to Audible.
I am suspecting/hoping it was user error in setting the device up. I backed up my RP2 to Google Drive, because I didn't want to lose my apps/data (I was mostly hoping my Swype settings and game logins would transfer over, since Swype died and I'm being a luddite, and the games require the hassle of 'transfer IDs') and have my text messages transfer over easily. I think it also possibly transferred the core device stuff like cellular and bluetooth settings as well, though am not sure.
Turning airplane mode on and off seems to 'reset' things and it'll reconnect to stuff, for a while again at least. I noticed I am somehow still getting at least some push notifications on my watch even though it shows as disconnected. I am a firefighter, on AT&T's Firstnet, so am also not sure if maybe the Firstnet bands might be being finnicky with the BS3.
Thanks ahead of time for any help and suggestions!
ETA: I also get the "Xiaomi SIM activation failed" alert every time I restart the phone, and sometimes after reboot the keyboard doesn't load. ? I get the feeling ill need to reflash again, but knowing where I went wrong first would help! Also curious if there is a stock Android ROM because this JoyUI seems a hassle, and I just don't want all the Xiaomi stuff.
