Elusive updates - MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading

Does anyone know when (if ever) O2 UK will get their finger out and release our long awaited update, I hope my XDA won't have died of old age by then!

They currently have 4 days to meet their latest promise. Although many have been broken before.

So, it's don't hold your breath then?

I think so.

T-Mobile 3.14 Update has yet to be officially delivered

My guess is, they are waiting to the release day of the HD7, then to appease the HD2 owners until they pluck down money for the new model, they deliver a lukewarm update. It's not a bad update at all, solid, and stable, it's just that it fails to add anything new and or exciting, application or feature wise.
I see the updates for EU, in all the 3.14.4xx.2 flavors, and it irks me. Football provided the leaked 3.14.531.0 TMOUS ROM a month ago and yet T-Mobile has yet to post it for download. Not that I would RUN a plain jane vanilla ROM like that for long. And yes, we have the packages in the builds our esteemed chefs are providing.
It's just that I know why T-Mobile has not provided. They are all busy with the Shiny new HD7 to bother with updates for a phone that they are likely to pull in a few weeks. No M-O-N-E-Y in it. That's okay, they are a business and entitled to look for profitable moves, but it's the loyalty thing that gets pushed aside, and over the long haul, that will hurt them more.
I here that....no loyalty....tmous notorious for that...will see what happens, Ty all xda chefs for helping us revive a dead hd2!!!!!!

still patiently waiting
Any news of a release date?
i find it hard to understand why the rom upgrade cannot be made available to all hd2 users on the same day
say what? I got a text message nearly 2 weeks ago stating that the update was available and I downloaded it and installed it on October 19,2010 straight from T-mobile's website.

Question about NoDo

Hi,
when is the release of the NoDo-ROM for the HD2-WP7 ?
Will it takes much longer ?
Unless I slept through it, I don't think NoDo has been officially released for 'proper' WP7 devices, so I wouldn't look for it any time soon.
That said, a leaked build has been in the hands of XDA-ers for a few weeks now and at least one developer has been working to make it work on the HD2 - there is a thread about it in the ROMs forum.It's far from easy though, so again, don't expect anything too soon.
Very happy to be proved wrong though...!
actually it has been released for all windows phone 7 devices as of today so developers can now use the official roms to cook something up?
It's being rolled out in phases, begining today. Hasn't hit most devices from what I've read/heard.
I can obviously claim the credit for shaming MS into finally releasing NoDo then...
I still wouldn't expect anything for the HD2 too quickly, there seem to be a few technical challenges to overcome.
Having been proved wrong once today already I'll happily be proved wrong again though.

Since the 11th April, did you get nodo on Omnia 7

Dear Omnia owners,
It seems that the NoDo update is no longer available for Omnia 7 users since 2 weeks.
For my own case, i got the ndo notification on my phone, but i can't do the update immediatly, so i try 5 day later, and Zune says that my phone is up to date...
So i just want to know how many of us meet the same problem.
Thanks for your reply.
EDIT: So Nodo has been stop:
"Yes, we've temporarily stopped sending updates to Omnia7s. The team discovered a technical issue with the update package for this model. The work of fixing and testing the package is nearly done, and the team hopes to resume update deliveries soon. When I know more about the timing, I'll pass it along." (Michael Stroh -> MS Employee)

Yes, no more NODO at least officially, and your readings are totally correct. Well, I am going to do it with Chevron updater right now.
Same here.....
Got my Omnia 7 on 9th of April with T-Mob Branding. Used to flash that device to have the original Firmware and no Branding.
Just after flashing I got the notification of pre-NoDo but that it.
Looking at many forums around this topic, you'll find so much owners with that problem!
Same problem here. Got a message that there was an update available, few days later I tried to update: untill today Zune keeps telling me that my phone is up to date...
no update for me since I got my phone on the 4th,only pre nodo

I'm getting more and more impatient and angry with MS
Same here. Going ringing them tomorrow and give out ****.
I was one of those who got nodo update with Hungary connection and 15 sec data trick.
Now I sent of my phone for repair and it came back with 7004 and it won't update past 7008. Sick of this ****

In a different boat here, contract gets renewed end of april, jumping over to an Atrix or Galaxy S2, sick of MS updates already, I knew it was a mistake buying into the first wave of WP7 devices, maybe by next year when nokia gets on board it'll be a viable platform
I got the notification at the beginning of the month but the next day when I connected it to my computer it said it was up to date.
Maybe they pulled it because they're waiting for a samsung firmware update or something. I don't really care that I don't have it yet since it is only a minor update. This is their first update and by the time mango and other updates are released I'm sure it will go smoother.
A french guy had a contact with Samsung, ang the samsung guys told him that Nodo has been hold for Omnia 7 for un unknown period of time...
He just say to connect his phone to zune from time to time.
To be confirmed, but MS is not to be blamed but Samsung yes!
Same here ...
Wish I'd read this topic 2 days ago
No longer works for me either, did a system restore, on the phone which already was updated to NoDo, so it went back to 7008. and then I couldn't refla**** back to 7390 Tried for hours lol
Damn you samsung!
I have this problem to as Orange replaced my phone when trying to resolve an issue with dropping signal..... Now I still have signal issue and old software.

same problem here. bought my omnia 7 five days ago. it seems i was too little too late...still loving wp7 though and ready to wait some time. a statement of microsoft or samsung would be nice, though.
Some people said that Nodo for Omnia was removed because of an issue that devices wouldn't be able to update after that. However this is very unofficial...
It seems to be clear that the NoDo update has been removed for omnia 7.
But MS refused to talk about it, and no web sites gives the news, what can we do?
Maybe can you post the info on your favorite WP7 news site?
same problem...
Can I suggest we post here and demand some answers...

I know alot of the media read this blog and Microsoft have issued appologies etc... as a result of large numbers of negaive posts to this blog..
Personally I am feeling really annoyed at the lack of information...
I previously had the update on my Orange UK Omnia 7 but Orange in their wisdom decided to change my phone to try to cure a dropping signal problem...
So new Omnia 7 arrived and updated to the Feb 11 update without problems.
Then I waited for the 2nd update but nothing!!! So its been a week now..
I actually use copy and paste quite alot and need access to GAL 2003 for business. Both these features should have been in the original release but six months later I am now on version 7008 and dont have the features....CRAZY!!!
So today I tried to get some answers and called the following....
Orange UK ....they had no idea updates were not working suggested I get phone flashed at a repair center.
Samsung... Say they are not responsible for updates only hardware so I should talk to Microsoft. The woman I spoke to just tried to get rid of me and I probably will not buy another Samsung product after that experience.
Microsoft... call routed to India... they had no idea about updates told me it was the responsibility of the OEM. They said Microsoft had no technical team to answer Windows Phone issues.
Unbelievable !!!!!!!!!!!!
No Nodo update for my unlocked version, too.
I got it today.

uk atrix update mid-november

This might be old news (actually stated on 11 october), but I saw this today.
Motorola has stated that they will release the 2.3 update to (unlocked) UK Atrix in mid-november

Is sure that the new update unlock the bootloader also for EU version?
I think I read that it will stay locked down. Not sure if its only locked so we only need to do the fastboot unlock, or if we still need IHOP..
If you read the whole thread it's getting very heated - Personally I don't think motorola will give UK the GB update.
The out of datrix will be the last motorola I ever buy. Never ever again. They can go out of business for all I care.

Shouldn't have bought it

That sucks that you guys have had to wait so long. It doesn't make sense since we've had gb here in the states for a few months and you haven't.
Wonder what the hold up is. Hope you don't have to wait much longer as it really makes the phone feel like a new device.

The worst part is that they stated that it would be released at the same time in the US and the UK..

Listen I get that you are upset, but there's no way that any current Android phone is gonna have an entire lifecycle without at least one major update.
Don't get me wrong, its BS that you had to wait even this long for GB, but for what it's worth I chose to stay on Froyo for the longer stock battery life.
I'm gonna remain there until I get a more definitive answer in regards to ICS being OTA or CM for the Atrix...

Makes no difference to me, I've rooted & unlocked the boot loader(another stupid motorola trait) and have Gb on my Atrix.
Still won't be buying another motokak - just waiting for the Galaxy nexus to be delivered & I can consign the Atrix to the dustbin where it belongs.
Apparently it should come to all UK users (t-mobile, unlocked etc)

hopefully will be able to rip the radio from the update, as im sure there will be a new one, and for people who have unlocked their bootloader it might not be safe to do the OTA, like was the case for AT&T users.

[HTC Germany] Statement ICS Update

Hello Guys,
since there was no date for the Desire HD ICS Update I asked the German HTC support if they have a specific date for the Update.
You can find the Answer in the attechment and for everyone who is not that into the German language here the translation:
Hello,
Thank you for your request related to your HTC Desire HD
We only have the confirmation that it will roll out this year. But there is no specific date when it will happen. Our experts predict, it wont be later than August and expect it more likely happen in May.
[Standart things about to contact them again and a link to survey]
Greetings
Juergen
HTC
Great news So they say May and August? Then I'd say it comes in June or July
I hope sooner rather then later, my DHD is starting to fall apart (Volume rocker could fall out any moment i feel, power button sometimes does not work, Scratches all over, Sim/SDcard case is falling off sometimes and the battery doesnt get better either ).
And my contract runs out in September so i hope i can still experience ICS on this device that has suited so well in the past 2 years. And it was such an amazing community here on XDA. Great fun, great roms and i learned so much about Android and stuff
I don't know why they even stated out August cause I did not even mentioned it in my original request to them
But since they said not later than august but expeted to be in May i would agree with you and say mid of June
