Well first it depends on your operator mobile (network operator) I think, secondy, there are no updates for now
I heard the Windows Update feature just isnt in use yet, and most likely never will as most updates are handled through new ROM versions
My device is completely unlocked, as I live in Belgium.
I notice the s710 gives the error 'Connection to the update server was not available...' I'm connected to the internet by wifi.
If I do the same action on the Smartphone device emulator in VS2005, it onnects and tells me that no updates are avalable.
So there is a difference, but I can't figure out what it is.
I'm guessing that the feature itself is there but it's not working due to a limited space on the phone.
I have these 2 issues if anyone could help out that would be great
1. I'm having trouble with windows update whenever i try the update from the settings menu this error shows up "connection to update server was not available. check your data connections settings and ensure the device date and time are correct", however on my side everything is ok i think
--- any idea what to do?
2. I'm also having trouble connecting my phone to my laptop via bluetooth, i don't know how to solve this one either please help
Thanks

Have you paring your Cruise with your laptop via BT?? do that first, and you have/can surf with your phone so the connection settings are allright??. If you have this 2 done right all you do is open Internet Sharing->Bluetooth PAN-> connect and go to BTnetwork on your laptop klic connect and you are in the net. I use my Cruise as a modem and its works just perfect!! I use a BT Dongle, have no BT built in my laptop
Look here http://www.wifizard.com/tutorialsXP/generic_bluetooth_pan/index.htm
hope this help
What are you doing with the Windows Update?? you never find anything. totaly useless.

However, I get reply "No updates available at this time" (which is true, AFAIK).
Thank you, Bodisson, for publishing your /autoupdate data. Unfortunately it is not enough to make "working" Windows Update.
As far as i know there aren't any update packages... so even if WU works it won't do anything...
My push notifications from thirdparty apps and live tiles stop working very regularyly which is a shame since the platform heavily depends on this.
It fails to open a channel etc.
Is microsoft fixing this bug in the os? Since now they say yeah just do a factory rest and it should be fine. But i dont wat to lose my settings.
And a restart temporarely fixes it but after an hour or so its terrible again.
or are the ms servers just over crowded already? I dont like apple but my dads iphone just kept working while mine stopped receiving the toasts

Toasts and tile updates come from the app developers servers, so depending on the platform they use there may be some down time. The Beezz twitter client occasionally stops working, but it's a free app and not ad supported so we should be lucky it has toasts and tile notifications at all.

not really since tested with the same apps at the same time. Its probably because it goes to the ms servers and fails to deliver timely. Also the unable to open a channel is not related to their servers i believe? Its related to a channel not able to open on the ms servers. Downtime should probably be equal when using the same apps on ios and wp7 sending out to each other, the messages do get delivered in app just no or really really delayed notifications. Like 20 minutes and then it just works normal for a while.. Then stops again. Other than this i really like the platform.
So i wonder does anybody else experience trouble? And which is the program you use which seems to be stable all times?
I'm experiencing the same troubles on my omnia 7.
Following programs do have some problems:
-Fim: Unable to open the channel - push notifications don't work anymore.
-TextMe: Push Notifications sometimes work - but with a delay of approx. 20 minutes
Following programs don't have any problems:
-Hotmail
-Messenger by Miyo
----------------------------------------
This is really annoying - since a "usual" restart of the device doesn't help, i think i will have to do a hard reset (i wonder if this will help at all). But i don't want to lose all my settings, installed applications, short messages etc. So this really is a PITA.

hardreset, would that really help? I think it wont really help. I have the same phone same apps and same problems also with tigertext send to wp7 and notes to tile.
i dont have the time and or want to hardreset. It might be a driver thing with the 3g etc. If nobody with other phones is experiencing this. I think hardreset changes nothig and will return to same behaviour. I will hardreset when the update comes or see if this will fix it.
20 Minutes is just strange conpared to instant on iphone and happens a lot
Pff
Did a hardreset. Tested the push again, ait a damn thing changed besides that I lost all my settings and stuff. Its just not working right. And probably a samsung driver or a ms server/os issue....
Does nobody else experience push notification downtime? Or delays? It's just not the way it should work. IM apps and Text replacement apps can never work properly in the background with these delays...
@Marvin_S which apps, specifically are you having trouble with? It could very well be that the developers servers have been down or slow.
I haven't had any Live Tile problems that couldn't directly be traced back to either the app dev's server or the way they've implemented notifications. Not on my Omnia 7 nor the HD2. Afaik, and I'm pretty sure I'd have heard about it - the wife's Omnia7 is doing just fine also. Have you tried flashing the new updated ROM? That seemed to fix a bunch of data issues.
Oh, as for the 20 minute thing, I've never seen this. Beezz for example notifies me (via toasts) in about a second or so.
Beezz has never worked for me. I always get an error whenever I try to enable push. The same happens for GReadie. I get a fail to open channel error. The weatherbug app also stopped working.
Right now my HTC hub live tile works. Its the only 3rd party live tile app I use.

Well I seem to be running the latest version pre-installed by samsung... i asked in the omnia7 forum what kind of rom I was running.
Well the thing is, it builds up all the notifications and than releases them all after each other 20 minutes later.
Basically these apps: Textme and tigertext (which I tried later to see if it could replace textme, very kind and responsive developers btw)
Also send to wp7, which often than comes up with the failed to open channel stuff.
If this rom should rely fix it, then I will just reflash it eve though its exactly the same rom... I think it has something to do with losing 3g+ signal, or wifi drops.
I'm testing the reliablility heavily since I such problems by sending constant test messages to myself (or to the echo server) the messages are received fine, but the toast is so unreliable.
Can you maybe type the versions of your firmware so I can compare it with mine? Because its for sure not an app problem since the messages all come later from diffrent apps. My test flow is like this: Open app, send message, close, send message with the second app, close and than wait. If it takes to long, open app again, resend. Sometimes it works quite right for a while, than teribly bad.
And note that I'm from a crowded area with lots of cellphone towers and have also good wifi coverage in the places I tested it. Same apps on the iphone work without problems, I compared side by side as well.
So it might just be my omnia, thats why I would like to hear which versions you are running. Since hardreset did not change a thing, I'm starting to believe its or a driver problem or ms-servers are overcrowded. I would like to try beez and see if its diffrent, however I dont havee twitter and i guess its required.
I don't think the newer ROM from Samsung fixes anything, because i installed it. Version 2424.10.11.1
but perhaps the region affects this problem, e.g. North-American Azure-Servers work fine while European Servers are struggling.
I personally have massive problems with push notifications since monday or so, and it's really starting to pi** me off!
Hard resetting idny going to fix anything permenitly because it is not the phone it is the apps just gotta wait for and update to fix

Weird. I'm using Beezz, SendToWP7, uController, eBay, Weatherbug and probably a few others using toast and/or live tile notification. Beezz server seems to go down every so often, but both uController and SendToWP7 notifies me real quick.
I'm running the latest Omnia 7 ROM as people said it was slightly faster and had a better data connection - that said, I was entirely happy with the phone even before updating.
I did a hard reset/reinstall of my apps and such, I'm still having intermittent push problems with some apps, and with others the push won't work at all. I will say that it seems to be the same apps having the same problems, and the ones that always have worked (weather bug) still work.
I'm thinking (hoping, praying!) this is a problem simply because of the infancy of the OS...I remember the first iphone, which I bought on day one, had all sorts of problems and "gaps" in technology

oKe im running the latest rom since the beginning. Created fake twitter account sended a ton of messages. Crap as hell, very unreliable and today i was not able to load fb app data on 3g full bars. So it can be a phone problem on drivers with data over 3g, while 3g+ works fine. Probably euopean servers are overloaded than. Does changing my location from USA based (im dutch) To germany change the servers as well? Bc germany is much closer thus more reliable?

this is not the case, read my post. Has nothing to do with the apps since ALL apps behave like this, it has nothing to do with the apps itself but probably slow ms servers. So no this is really an os or server or device firmware problem and not an app. Since all notifications come at the same time all after eachother highly delayed.
Apps have own servers they Sony go threw ms os is not mad for apparently apparently are made for os if apparently no work on os they need update

its not the problem of the apps! Since all apps fail at the same time to update. This is no coincidence, only a restart or waiting will solve this and than all notifications not yet delivered by multiple apps come at once! Now tell me how this is an app poblem,its the phone who is not able to receive the push even on wifi. The apps do deliver, but there is a huge delay even with beez which i checked with fake twiter account.
Every once in a while the phone just fails to receive any data based push notifications! All of them. While i do have wifi and or 3g. On 3g+ it seems to be more stable.
This could be europe related or omnia related. And narrowing this down will help dtermine the issue, since the apps are not the problem. These work fine for the others...

It is neither Europe or Omnia related as I'm using the 16GB Omnia7 in Europe (slightly north of you) at the moment without fail.
If it really is all apps, I would suggest there is a problem with your data connection - are you able to browse the web properly and without pages having to reload or taking a long time to open? If not, make sure you are indeed within range of, either, 3G/HSDPA or WiFi - if you are, and it works fine on another phone/laptop I would say you have a hardware fault and need to take the device back for a replacement.
Several things to be aware of with live tiles and notifications.
I am a developer of a few apps and offer push notification and live tile updates i have done alot of testing and know the ins and outs of this..
1st there is a such thing of the phone not being able to "open a notification channel" and Hard Reset is the only way to correct this.
2nd it is possable that the app developer side to also be the problem not sending because of their service going down server problems etc.
3rd when your batt. get to be less than 1/4 percent the notification service shuts down on the phone and you will not recieve updates. once the batt is above the 1/4 percent the service will then start working again.
4th sometimes the push service is delayed due to MS.
Hope this helps to better understand.

ok ill check the OS and compare it to what you mentioned.
i take it by forcing updates you mean the trick of disableing the wifi when i hit update thru zune simotaniously?

Hello, I am starting a new thread because I have a question that doesn't seem to have been answered despite the suggested threads, which I have perused hoping to find a solution. I would NOT start a new thread if I had noticed someone on XDA solve this problem.
My question is, what happens when you try to connect your Bluetooth to:
A) Do a transfer
B) Tether
or C) enjoy your music
and it disconnects? For some reason, it does this after "Searching..." (when I don't tell it to-does so by itself and turns off after) Although I am zeroing in on 2 files (bt_config.xml and bt_config.old), I believe they could be the problem as they are supposed to open (right?) and will not, and show signs of corruption. I never mess with my "/" directory, ever. I just used ES File Explorer to make the directory writable for a brief period (but not to those files), but now I discovered this issue. I am running CyanogenMod 10.2.0 (was running cm 10.2.1 when this started) now with at least 3 devices that have paired:
My laptop running Windows 7*
A desktop running Linux*
Sony MW-600 headset (no issues here)
*But these pairings have switched between one another in the SAME spot, as if they are one pairing. I will admit I am using the same Bluetooth adapter on both desktop and laptop, but I'd like help on solving this catastrophe without a factory reset (gone thru 4 of them since August 7th, 2013.) which is not an option I'm willing to explore. I'm sure any of the good minds on XDA can pinpoint the issue with all of these details. Just to be sure, I have already:
-Unpaired and repaired devices
-cleared Bluetooth Share's data (org.codeaurora.bluetooth does not have any data to clear, BTW)
-Uninstalled/re-installed Bluetooth drivers on my laptop PC running Windows 7 Pro build 7601 x64.
Anything I missed?

turn bluetooth off and delete /data/misc/bluetooth and /data/misc/bluedroid and reboot

Unfortunately the same issue occurs even after deleting both directories. It keeps saying "searching..." And then turns off, after about forty-five seconds. Any other tips would be nice, and I'd be glad to submit any files if you name them.

This Bluetooth issue is unnerving. Despite following your advice, Nardholio, and rebooting, I still have issues. WiFi never crossed paths with my Bluetooth once, by the way.
I just want to keep my hotspot invisible to my clients via Bluetooth when I don't want them connected. I do not want to change my password(needless) or hide my SSID (unproductive).
I trust them, but when I don't want them to see or automatically connect, Bluetooth is helpful. Please someone needs to give me a sign in the right direction.

Is your issue the same as mine, where activating the bluetooth connection on the SGH-T699 will cause the wifi connection to start cycling in and out? This seems to be a samsung issue on multiple devices.
