Hey guys,
I just spoke to someone on the livechat at LG's website.
Please read the conversation below:
4:21 PM Joe: Hello Rutger. Welcome to LG Electronics U.S.A. Support only. How may I provide you with excellent service today?
4:22 PM Rutger: Hello Joe.
4:22 PM Joe: hello Rutger
4:22 PM Rutger: I have a question about my LG Optimus 7.
4:22 PM Joe: how may I assist you today?
4:22 PM Joe: I apologize, would you please confirm the model number? We are not able to find the model E900 on our system
4:22 PM Joe: Was this phone purchased here in the U.S.?
4:23 PM Rutger: No sir. It was purchased in Holland but it is a general question.
4:23 PM Rutger: Windows Phone 8 launched lately and I was wondering if the LG Optimus 7 will get an update to Windows Phone 7.8
4:24 PM Joe: I understand, Rutger
4:24 PM Rutger: Microsoft once told us that all Windows Phones on 7.5 would get an update to 7.8 but I think LG has to modify firmware and such.
4:25 PM Rutger: Many people are worried that LG is not going to update our phones, could you please clear some things up?
4:25 PM Joe: Actually, Microsoft confirmed that no Windows Phone 7 phones will be able to get the Windows Phone 8 OS
4:25 PM Joe: I apologize for the inconvenience
4:25 PM Joe: I do apologize, unfortunately This Live Chat page, is for customer support for products made for and sold in the United States; we do not have information about products in other countries. Please go to -snip- and select your country for proper support
4:26 PM Rutger: Yes, I understand that. But I was not talking about Windows Phone 8, but about 7.8
4:26 PM Rutger: 7.8 is a minor upgrade from 7.5
4:26 PM Rutger: Though the livechat in the Netherlands is currently offline and I think that LG USA is able to answer my question.
4:27 PM Joe: Okay, Rutger, unfortunately Microsoft has not yet confirmed when will be a WP 7.8 version released for WP7 users, Rutger
4:28 PM Rutger: Okay, but is there any information on LG's side if they are sending out this update when it is available?
4:28 PM Joe: As far as we are concerned, here in the U.S., the carriers itself owns the phones once they left the LG factories, and they do request LG to develop updates, so it is actually done at their request. We do not have any information on how does this work on Netherlands
4:29 PM Rutger: Okay, thanks for the information! I didn't know that.
4:29 PM Joe: You are very welcome
4:29 PM Rutger: Goodbye!
4:30 PM Joe: It has been a pleasure to assist you today.
4:30 PM Joe: Thank you for choosing LG Electronics. We appreciate your business. Have a great day!

So it seems that we'll have to wait until Microsoft releases 7.8 for current 7.5 users! LG is willing to update our phones if the demand is high enough. :victory:
Please, feel free to ask the same questions in the livechat so we make clear that we want 7.8!

I really don't see any indication of anything coming from your livechat convo, BUT I think its pretty clear that we'll get 7.8 or at the very least be able to force the 7.8 update when it does arrive, as this has been the case for ALL past WP updates.
LG Poland said 'not 7.8 update for e900'.

Great move LG...

Never in my life gonna get another LG phone...
But don't have any official info. Remember how MS support messes with surface as well as nokia of various countries failed to say anything about updates at all. So we need to see the list of officially updated phones when MS releases it => make conclusions / custom rom it.

I was searching up different Nvidia 2600 equipment on google when i found this:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/nvidia-APX-2600-Tegra-Development-Platform-NEW-/150615995959
Any idea if this would be useful in getting android on the kin?My hope would be that this has a android rom installed on it and could be pulled off for development for the kin somehow.I know it matches the hardware as far as the chipset goes.
I really, really wish they weren't so expensive. I messaged the seller to ask if he knows if it could be used to develop code for the Kin phones. We'll see.
---------- Post added at 01:25 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:32 PM ----------
I got a reply already from the seller, but they don't have an answer. They told me to contact Nvidia and ask them. Here's the number if anyone wants to give it a try - (408) 486-2000
Most of you all know that our beloved Amnix or Aman (developer of Xperia roms), does not have his Note working. It fell into water & motherboard needs to be replaced (CPU+GPU etc.), which they are quoting 16000 INR (~295 USD). As per Aman's financial conditions, he is unable to afford that. He somehow managed to build a Rom without device & tested in his friend's Note. So, finally he agreed for creating a Paypal donation account & he is now temporarily using his close friend's Paypal account till he gets his own (will get it within 10-15 days after receiving PAN number). So, whoever loved Aman's Roms or want to appreciate his work by a donation, please do so.
Since, Indians cannot donate to another Indian through Paypal, they will have to transfer the donation amount to his Bank account directly. So, anyone from India who wants to Donate can contact Aman/AmniX for the Bank details. Others can donate to his Paypal account [email protected].
If we can manage to get his Note repaired, you can expect many more Xperia roms or he may not be able to cook any more roms, as he cannot afford the repair cost/buy a new Note at least till he gets a good job.
P.S.:
1) DONATION IS NOT MANDATORY. IT IS UPTO YOU, IF YOU WANT TO DONATE OR NOT
2) I am posting this on his behalf because he is a good friend of mine (yours too ) & I know his financial condition & can feel for him. I did my job of donation as soon as I got his bank details

Please read the XDA rules and you will see that these specific donation threads are against them (Chapter 8).
However donations up front are not allowed, this forum is about sharing, not about getting paid to do something, that's what your job is for.

And you are exactly doing this: asking for a payment before AmniX would or could continue his work.

This donation campaign isn't really his idea, it was all Xperia Rom user's idea. Myself as well as 10 other people from our Facebook group already donated. We users want more Xperia roms on our Note from him, which isnt possible without a device.

Hmmm..this thread was posted couple of weeks ago by AmniX & removed by mods. Now I again I posted after consulting with mod
We want Aman to continue "Amnix" ROMs. He is the only one who is doing fully experia like ROM, He can't do it without his device. I support this donation thread. He is not asked for any donations. Amnix ROM users want him to work for amnix ROM. We are the one who requested him to start a donation thread. If a dev need any kind of support we can do it within our limits, All of the devs in Xda giving their precious time and effort for the users. We respect it.
Hi Guys, I also want Amnix to keep development on & he is just a higher secondary school student & not earning, but doing a excellent work by making these awesome roms. I have already donated & done my part. Request all others who like his work 2start the donation of whatever amount possible. Good Luck Amnix.
I respect the forum rules & if they allow may be we can continue this thread.
This is a thread initiated by xPeria Z ROM lovers,
With all respect to Mod's, i want this thread to be OPEN.
Please do not close!!
Hi,
I've done my bit. Hope most of us do our bit as we all like this ROM.
Sorry to argue,
I still remember, when i donated for a CM member to buy Galaxy R and build CM for that device, the thread was open and we even reached the goal.
Just saying !!
Good to all, prime it say that translator utilizao that my English is very basic.
Do ria comment going to restatement of the rom base?
Best regards.
---------- Post added at 05:42 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:36 AM ----------
I forgot, enorabuena this rom, is something different from what we are used to.
Also say, I'm looking for some manual to make the change from the base, but I am a member of Energybean with basic knowledge.
regards

Hello everyone,
kind of new around here, but hopefully will get the hang of the forums pretty soon.
I'm currently looking to upgrade a few PCs from Win 7 Pro to Win 10 Pro. I know I can upgrade "in place" (install Win 10 "on top" of Win 7), but since it's also time for Hardware upgrades, I might as well do a fresh install.
My question is, when I buy the Win 10 Pro license keys, will I be able to reinstall in the future with said keys?
I know you can also use a microsoft account to register Win 10 Pro automatically, but can you "store" more tan one license key in a microsoft account?
Any help is appreciated.

insofar as your first question, yes. Windows will notice certain hardware changes and prompt you to activate windows and it will say that your serial is already in use, at which point when i was personally doing this, i had to call MSFT and have a lil chat with one of their representatives and give them the serial numbers off the products i had removed from the rig i was repairing. The fella gave me a new activation code and its been gucci ever since.
to your second question, im not sure if you can store more than one activation code or not, but a logical case can be made to support either side of that debate. Anyways, i cant help ya on that one. cheers mate

I think this Microsoft's article covers some scenarios about your questions, pretty much I guess:

@moderators: sorry I needed to post a link to help this person, it's not spam.

1: yes we do!!! WE ARE OMNIPOTENT!!! ok, maybe we dont, but.... LoL
2: i often find myself thinking the same thing when im perusing threads, but man, youd be surprised. i find threads that are 30+ days old and post solutions that then get replies saying it worked\need more help\new issue emerged. Shoot, for that matter, Im having an issue i posted up in howard forums and still have the issue extant.
