[Q] HTC update failure - Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have a Mozart.
A few weeks ago, i updated to Mango via the leaked version.
A couple of days ago, i plugged my phone in and there was a "HTC update" available.
When i update, it downloads the update, creates a backup, and then fails with the code "80181103".
I assume this is because i have the leaked Mango installed?
I was going to restore to my NoDo version (i saved the backup folder) but i cannot find any way to restore via Zune.
Has anyone else had this problem?

Surely i'm not the only person that has a Mozart that had installed the leaked mango update?

What's the version of your OS on PC?

I'm in a similar position - I have flashed to official prenodo rom supplied by ansar but this didn't fix it either, my PC OS is win 7

Failure to upgrade to official ATT ROM

I have previously upgraded to RWE wm6, now the official ATT upgrader says "you have a newer version of this software" and wont update to the latest ROM. Any suggestions to fool the updater and install official WM6 release?
Thanks in advance- this forum always amazes me!!
Is a simple edit of the payload file all thats needed here?

Awesome as always!! Thanks!!!!
Next question....Installer gets through initial phase, treo gets 4 dark colored bars, then connection is lost and install cant complete. I tried removing the SD card-no luck. Advice ?
Thanks again
I got the same problem , after the erase all data it just froze up ..... is it bricked. hopefully someone can help
I also had the same problem with my device but what i did is switch computers with Windows xp and with Activesync 4.5 that should do the trick
fixed
installed from XP instead of Vista...no problem at all. Appears Vista has trouble with recognizing the treo after loses activesync connection
seems my problem had to do with the unit, i did the sdupdater recovery tool from palm to no avail, finally i removed the battery and reinserted it and bam WM6 appeared after numerous attempt at upgrade and different ROMS tried. I asume the original upgrade got stuck and the removal of the battery, helped it finish. Who knows at least its not bricked

Sideloading stopped Working Completely

sideloading has suddenly stop working for me, the Chevron app shows that I am unlock but I keep receiving the same error as if the device had never been connected to my PC. the only thing that has changed to my system (PC) was the Mango update. I uninstalled and reverted back to the old zune software to in case it was the new update. I even started over with a different phone that is currently pre NoDo and still no luck. and no skype running

When you update to mango you had installed and the Windows Phone DevTools 7.1 beta
You must remove it and install the previous version with all the patches and updates as it was before mango to be able to sideload apps from your system again.
first of all, you will want to post the error code message and/or look for it to find some help.
also here we have the problem that sideloading does not work anymore, after mango update.
now, you say that another different phone is also not working?
interresting...
change usb port, or use another computer/ reinstall windows.
i maybe would try in vm too...

that is wrong
- i successfully downgraded to 7004, unlocked, protected, deployed & updated to nodo & mango with mango sdk 7.1 installed, i only used zune 4.7 because of backups...
also in the thread i mentiond someone already reinstalled sdk & zune and nothing has changed for him.

[Q] Mango RTM 7720, how can we revert back to Nodo?

I have a Samsung Focus running the leaked 7720 RTM build. Looks like the RTM wont be supported by the cleanup build. So how can I revert back to Nodo so I can then receive the official update? When I go to updates from zune, I cant see any place to restore from backup
Why don't you save your backup before experimenting with Mango RTM (uninstalling Zune etc.)?

stock rom will be your option to go to NoDo. But I highly recommend you wait. There is still a chance that even those on RTM might get the update. And then there are good programmers here who can figure out ways to accomplish this without MS.
I concur with the previous poster, but worst case scenario you can probably wait a week or so, see whether your device tries to update, and if not, roll back to your Nodo backup, which you hopefully made. At that point, your device should see the update. Though, the focus has been notorious for slow updates anyway. You may just want to stay put for a while and see what happens.

yea i figured it out, the backup wasnt stored in the windows phone update folder, but once i moved it there, it showed up in zune...also i will wait and see if the official mango update comes through anyways. Thanks guys!
samsung focus
I lost my back up when I got the new version of zune . I was ready to flash the 7004 rom that I found on here but I tried zune first . I got the samsung update (firmware I am sure) and I checked with a friend who did not update to the 7720 rtm and our firmware hardware and os versions are all the same . I am pretty sure that I am up to date and dont need to do anything else . Can someone please confirm this for me . I was on rtm7720 I am hoping with the firmware I have the final mango .

yes but it will not run the setup when you upgrade to mango
It is not working in mango anymore..... Just side loaded it when you click it it goes black then closes..... I think mango blacklisted it?????
It was there a few days ago when I first upgraded to Mango. It installed but would not run (said carrier not found). Hopefully they pulled it until they get it upgraded and it comes back.
i can´t find Compass too..
Did you look in the system settings, thats where I found it

HTC Surround originally on Telus, used Connection Setup to reconfigure for Rogers. Updated to Mango, now I've lost 3G. With no access to Connection Setup, I can't re-enable data. Any ideas?

Go back to your backup made right before the update, then uninstall Connection Setup before you update. If it is installed it tries to run when the update finishes and you lose 3G. This is probably the main reason it has been pulled as it does not work on final Mango.
Could not restore to backup because I replaced the 16 GB SD card with an 8GB! I flashed stock Telus Rom with Nodo, and then flashed DFT 7720 Rom. Phone now works great (my wife is currently enjoying Angry Birds on it!)

Yea, if you updated to the newest version, it gives that error.
If you ran the older version (non updated), it will run your provxmls BUT, on verizon you would lose 3G service totaly, Hard reset or reflash rom would be the only fix (tried a lot of stuff).
It needs to be upgraded for mango but, the good old days of doing reg edits I think is over for HTC devices with this.

At this point I am going to wait and see if they release an updated version and then hope my provxml file is still sitting there. I had uninstalled it before upgrading so it did not try to run and I have 3G, then went to the HTC Hub and downloaded what was there which failed to run (and has since been pulled).
AFAIK the provxml file should still be sitting there waiting to get "provisioned"

Hi derausgewanderte,
Yes this is the correct packages although would "HTC connection setup" still work after it has been sideloaded if i upgrade to mango and the device relocks?
I think ill have to wait it out untill it becomes available in marketplace again or another way is found to unlock mango.

[Q] Is it safe to forace the Mango update?

Hi all,
I have a Samsung focus, 1.3 rev, and I am still waiting for the official update. I have already tried the check update trick by disabling the internet connection and Zune was able to find the mango update ready.
So is it ok to update the device via that method? I have many important stuff in my mobile, mainly SMSs, and i don't want to them to be deleted by official post-mango updates if i use this hack (much like the Walshed fix for forcing mango update via his utility)
Any help is appreciated...
Yes its fine. And nothing will be erased.
