Just use CAB sender to send your language packs to your phone, same thing happened to me on my Trophy and after I loaded the lanugage packs the phone tile started to work. If you want to roll back to 7740 with out a back up you'll have to find a stock ROM for your phone and start from scatch (speaking from experience). Just load your language packs one at a time and you'll be good to go.

Thanks for the reply
I tried installing the language packs again but were unsuccessful. Not a single language

What kind of phone do you have?

You need to use upgrade packages from 7740.. I'm guessing you have tried using full language packs that will "technically" upgrade you from original NoDo.
Check the thread "[CAB] Official WP7 Updates List: 7.10.8107 + ALL LANGUAGES complete + OEM updates."
Find "WP7 MANGO LANGUAGE PACKS (7.0.7403.0 - 7.10.8107.79) - All 22 supported languages", and use packages that say "...diff-7.10.7740.16-7.10.8107.79..." to upgrade whatever languages you have installed on the phone (assuming they worked correctly in 7740).
If you are installing the language from scratch, all of the packages must be installed from start to finish (so NoDo, then Mango+ updates).

u can download all the cabs for you phone and then start the sender, it will only do the updates it can. i did the same thing.

Can I use Cab Sender to install previous version?

Language context and better radio. Focus has 5 languages and radio is older compared to Omnia7.
@ender
have you switched to this rom, really worth switching
Also as someone mentioned that motion API bug, what about that

I didn't. Momentarily I'm quite busy and didn't have time to check it out, but it should be better than the AT&T rom. However, you should do this only if you understand what you're doing, being curious or unhappy with your current setup isn't enough. Expect a few things to possibly go wrong as this is a hack.
As long as you understand all these, you're fine.
Remember to make a backup before trying any of these and copy it to a safe location!
This rom hasnt drivers for Motion API as I said before, this is the main reason I reverted back to Rogers. I like apps like SkyMap, and Compass, these wont work on this rom, this is big fault imho. I was hopping that the OP will comment this, but he is like gone or something.
So I guess its nothing like routing and putting a ROM on a Android?

[Q] Anyways to add CameraSetting files under Mango?

I have updated to official Mango and that I found the camera settings is not displaying properly under custom added languages
I learnt that files can be loaded by touchexplorer
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1216975
but the problem's that I can't install touchexplorer under official Mango release
to install that means I have to revert to NoDo and applies ChevronWP7 again
So is there any method that I can load the xml file into a Mango device?
Would be appreciated if any tools can install the touchexplorer under mango without having revert to NoDo
Thanks in advanced
p.s. using Omnia 7, locked
"camera settings is not displaying properly under custom added languages "
Can you explain this a bit ?

[Q] WP7 CABs 8107 Language update problem

EDIT: SORRY I POSTED IN THE WRONG SECTION. MOVE TO Q&A PLEASE
=====================================================
I'm new and couldn't post here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1306415&page=57
If someone could move it there, then great.
I have an LG E900 from Australia (unlocked. optus) FW: 1.0.5.10
I got to 7740 officially through Zune, about a month ago.
Today I updated from 7740 to 8107 successfully using the method outlined in the above thread (using the cab file)
Now when I attempt to update the language files using the same process, the update tool (I replaced the OS cab with Language cab in the batch file dir.) it comes back with the error "none of the files are applicable to the current update" (or something)
How do I check what version Language files I have and also what Languages I have installed on my phone? The link for "Version and Language by Heathcliff74.xap" is broken
What Files?
Confirm that you are at 8107. Did you use the 7740-8107 language cabs for the languages checked on your phone in the languages list?
---------- Post added at 09:25 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:23 AM ----------
Go to "Settings", "Keyboard" and look for the languages that are checked. You will most likely only have one checked, make sure that language cab at the very least is the one you install. There are probably more installed on your phone and the language version program is the easiest way to find them.
Version and Languages .xap link at the bottom of the first post in that thread works fine.
I'm at 8107, confirmed. I checked the phone settings/about and it says that.
The only language checked is English (UK) and that's the first one I tried when doing the update.
It's possible that the language file updated successfully prior to me updating the OS to 8107 as I was having difficulties updating the OS to begin with. So maybe I updated the language file successfully early on and didn't notice that I did ???
The Languages.xap link does work fine. Seems like to much of a hassle to deploy it on the phone though.
Phone works fine.
I suspect when it comes around to the next update, I wont be able to get it automatically unless all my language files are up to date.

Manually upgraded my sprint arrive to 7.10.8773.98

After a long time of wait and search, I finally found one last piece, the 8112 OS, so I did the manual force update from 8107 to 8112 then to 8773. Everything looks Okay to me now, only the old wallpaper I was using was missing in the new OS, [email protected]! There're some changes, but nothing really matters to me too much though.
I did have big problems with MMS, I can't tell if that's fixed or not yet.
does it have internet sharing enabled?

No, didn't test that. I didn't unlock the phone. I'm not traveling at all, so very little use of the sharing for me.
What he is asking is does the new upgraded whatever you did have Internet Sharind in the Settings menu. If it exist, then it was added. If not, then it is not.
How did you mannage to upgrade your phone outside of a custom rom? Some fancy tricks with the Zune updater?

I didn't see the internet sharing anywhere.
There's a post on WPcentral about manual force update, not Zune trick. I tried a lot times with zune but nothing happened.link and they linked to xda for the OS files. I downloaded the 2 OS files for 8112 and the 0409 lang file, then 2 OS files for 8773 and the 0409 lang file, then followed the same procedure for 8107 update, but I only put one set in the folder a time, and I had no problem to update.

Are you sure the Freedom ROM has Internet Sharing working? Last I checked, the Internet Sharing was there, but it did not work and gave an error when you actually tried to enable it. I had to do some work to get Internet Sharing with static MAC working.

[Q] Missing Language Packs

Hello,
I updated my HTC Trophy using Seven Eighter. While the update itself went fine, I've missed some language packs as my system menus won't open. The Office WP7 Updates thread is an excellent resource, but at this point I'm having trouble determining which language packs I actually need to push to the phone. I've seen Heathcliffs tool 'Version and Language by Heathcliff74.xap', but don't know how to get it to and run on my phone.
According to Zune (the only way I can seem to retrieve version info), my phone is at version 7.10 (8862).
I tried the Seven Eighter support tool, but it fails every time I attempt to send languages over. I tried just downloading and sending over every language cab update, but of course that failed as well.
Any tips/pointers/links someone can share to help me out?
Thanks,
Tim
What version was in your phone before you use Seven Eighter?
What is your current language?
many people reports problems after use seveneighter...
which ROM you have before use seveneighter?
dont have trophy but advice you to flash Dynamics v2.0 ROM for Trophy
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1523976
and use Zune to update from 8858 to 8862 (no need cabs files or others)...
with Dynamics ROM you have full unlocked phone and you can install XAP files
Thanks all. So I'm not sure what ROM I was on when I started Makes it much harder to troubleshoot.
Is it possible to download a full original ROM and flash that? The Dynamics ROM looks cool, but I would like to avoid going down the HSPL route (If possible).
Do I just need to get all English language packs up to my current ROM version to load for menu functionality, or do I need all languages loaded? I've had some luck getting a few English packs to load. Very tedious though.
Tim
why to avoid HSPL? you not loose anything (always you can go back to original SPL) and with HSPL and custom ROM you have unlimited possibilities and you can do almost anything...
with original ROM you can forget to add language or do any other things...
