The stock Focus ROMs are available in the device specific forum. Many have flashed them without issues. You'll be going back to 7004, and then work your way up the update path the nodo. Be sure to stop around 7008 and look into the Chevron Unlock and Prevent Relock, if you want to side load homebrew apps and tinker with the OS a bit. If you wait until you're on nodo (7390) you have to revert back and start again.
Hello all.. I know that maybe this is not the right Topic but i'd like to know if a rom for HTC HD2 can be flashed on my Trophy 7. Because i updated to mango and now my phone is locked.. Also i've lost my backup, because of zune update to 4.8 ... So I'm thinking of downgrading to Nodo.. Any ideas?

no. ROMs are only for one make and model of phone. You can't even swap HTC WP7 ROMs. You will need to use an HTC Trophy 7 ROM. Look in the Trophy Windows Phone 7 Developent forum here on XDA. Ansar has posted tons

So it is possible to flash my Omnia 7 from Mango back to a "normal" ROM?
Why is it then that everybody is so considered to have a backup?
I have flashed my phone approximately 3 times in the last month and getting all data back took approx. 30 minutes.

ROM flashing is intrinsically more risky than a backup
The backup process "should" be easier than flashing a ROM
ROM flashing isn't the official method supported by Microsoft
Some handsets simply don't have any ROMs available, i.e. the Dell Venue Pro
Without the backup, some data is lost forever: SMS, internal app data, call history, purchased apps that have been withdrawn from the marketplace, etc...
However, ROM flashing is a viable method of restoring to NODO once the public release is made.

I am using a HTC HD7 Nodo 7392 unlocked build, If i'm using ansar's method to update my WP7 to 7712 will it remain unlocked?

Still works my way. Just did it to my phone and all my stuff is still there and working. As far as ansars way it probably works its essentially the same thing. But alot more steps.

Left out of that post is the needed update to 4.8 for Zune and Windows phone support tool for the phone to sync with zune after the update and use the backup tool. Whatever zune you have installed will handle the update fine. Its the original mango beta packages found on xda somewhere.
Though I just updated from the other mango beta build I still had to put the custclear.provxml file in the windows directory. Tried without doing that first just to see if it would relock it and it does. Just restored and did the originl way. It would be the same from nodo since the newest beta build replaced the last build in the zune phone update. U could use the files from windowsphonehacker.com which is the easiest actually to set everything up if you dont already have the files for the mango update itself.
What happens when the official mango update is release.....do we have to downgrade our unofficial 7712 build? or restore backup?
I just recieved a softward update from zune firmware is 4.8.2345.0 anyone else ? BY THE WAY IT NO LONGER SAY TEST
Downloading now!
Hi bigboy38
I didn't get a notification but was prompted to download the update when I checked for updates in Settings>Software>General>Updates.
Downloading now!

Zune
yes I got it... and i wanted to do a backup like i have been doing... now i get this msg...
The installed version of ZuneWMDU (4.8.2345.0) doesn't match the tool version (4.8.2134.)
so does anyone know where we get this?
Thanks!
Yes. Updating it now.
Updated too. There's a post on the windows phone blog saying it is to make the Mango update quicker and easier.
I notice when i plugged my phone in after updating Zune some new drivers were installed for the phone.
i hope i will be able to roll back my mango beta to nodo with this new zune...
edit: and yes i have the restore or roll back in the new zune.....
mine prompted me to go back to the previous backup so you should be ok going back to nodo. I got my zune update through windows update

No, this is for the desktop client. Nothing to do with the phone. It's just to get you ready for the Official Mango release, when it comes. Zune 4.7 can't communicate with Mango.
I just flashed my Omnia 7 from a T-Mobile branded one to the XXJL3 RETAIL UNITED KINGDOM one but am unable to update past 7008. Any one else running in the same problem?
yeah.. i had the same problem.. i was on uk retail rom and was not getting past 7.0.7008.. heres what i did to get my mango update.
1) flash a nodo rom from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1131891 ..
2) u will be on nodo(7389 or 7392) after that
3) next use this guide to update to mango beta 1 (7403 build) http://koolmobile.net/windows-phone-7-mango-7720-rtm-leakedhow-to-install/
4)once 7403 is installed.. zune will automatically give u notification that ur phone will now be updated to final build of 7720(official mang0)
5)after that it again check for updates and then will install samsung updates for correct drivers for ur device..
done!! full official mango in ur device
Will give it a try.Thanks
It seems that the links for the beta mango rom is not available but with the nodo rom its pushing out the 7392 version. Will install that and check if maybe mango pops up on its own
ok quick update. Using the WLAN disconnect trick I seem to have managed to get Zune to detect the 7403 update
Thanks a lot for your help

I'm facing the exact same problem. Flashed German T-Mobile NoDo Omnia 7 16GB to a unbranded 7004 with W7 Downloader. Next, I unlocked the device with Chevron WP7 and installed Samsung Tools to keep the lock when connecting with Zune.
Zune installed the 7008 February update succesfully, but now reports that my phone is up-to-date. What a bummer. Why does it let you update to 7008 and not beyond if the removed all the other update up to Mango!? It's a real bummer
I couldn't even restore the backup made with wpupdater.exe
I have the omnia 7 and because im impatient, i forced the mango update for my phone. this is because it took ages for them to release the mango update for my phone, i assume its ok for me to reset my phone and update it to the new mango now? my carrier is with orange and because i used the force mango upddate trick i have not received any notice from them saying that the official mango for the omnia 7 is available. so is it safe for me to do so now?

I see no problem there. I did the same thing, then after my carrier released the official update, I flashed back the official, old ROM to my Omnia and then properly updated it over Zune with the official update.
How did you "force" the update? If it was jsut the pull-the-Internet trick, you already have the official bits. If it was anything more drastic, you should use your Zune restore point to roll your phone back to how it was, and then check for official updates. If you don't have a restore point that doesn't inlcude the modifications you made to force the update, you my need to do a hard reset or even flash a stock ROM.
