Instructions:

0. the usual do it at your own risk again. You can wait for TMO if you believe in those guys but I sent cabs myself and phone is running great so far.

1. grab them tools (wp7_update_tool and wp7 update cab sender) from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1306415

2. make sure you're already updated to 8107! Check out benjaminries excellent post (that I'm basing on myself): http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1497142

3. back up as needed

4. grab the three cab files from above for 8112 and throw them in the same folder as your "wp7 update cab sender.bat" folder. Run the bat file and hit "s". 8112 is pretty quick to update. It'll reboot and then you should be good. Check your settings > about > more info to make sure you're at 8112.

5. delete the three cab files from the 8112 from your folder and throw the three 8773 tango cabs in it instead. Run the bat file again and hit "s" once more. Wait a little longer this time and after reboot, check you have tango on it.

6. check out what's new? I don't really notice anything... hmm..

Awesome! Thank you for sharing this. I wish I could do all of this, but I have a Mac. Maybe one day.

I did find this updates list at MS's website here:
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsphon...e-history.aspx

Not a huge amount of changes, but I am interested in the "Other quality improvements. Includes many other improvements to Windows Phone."

So far the only added feature I've heard of in Tango is the ability to add a voice note to an MMS. The update is supposed to be primarily to build in limitations on handsets with 256MB RAM. It removes local scout, fast app switching, podcast support in the media hub, and HD video playback. Any handset with 512MB should be unaffected. There may be some minor bug fixes so it's probably worth updating, if for no other reason, because they'll be prerequisites to WP7.8, which will probably take the carriers eons to push.

Thanks for the post!

Oh shucky darn man. Might need extra caution but you might want to Virtualbox it? Like Technosquid says, 7.8 will probably need all the updates in between...

Also, not too big a deal for us dell users, but disappearing keyboard is still here. Oh MS, how you play us.

Really? They haven't fixed that yet? I thought they were supposed to have fixed that in 8017. It actually does matter, because how I've experienced the so-called "dissappearing keyboard" bug is that (in the messaging app anyway) the text entry field loses focus and I have to tap it again to continue typing. On a regular windows phone, or a DVP with the keyboard retracted, that would cause the keyboard to disappear. I thought that's how this bug manifested itself for everyone.

I'm running through all the cab sending cycles now. I was experiencing that problem on 7720.

yeah that's it, techno.. it's supposed to be due to background tasks. Like in your case, when you're typing a message, an app (probably one you just came out of before getting into messaging hub) does something in the back (close? tombstone state?) which causes the OS to put focus quickly away from your typing so bam, keyboard disappears. Usually for me, I'm reading in Weave (or running other more resource intensive app) and I get a message notification. I tap on the notification and go to reply and the keyboard disappears midway. I've seen this on 8107 on an HD7 before too. YMMV, but my miles sure didn't... good luck though and report back if it fixes it for you.

I hear disabling background tasks for each app that you can under settings "might" fix it, but it didn't for me.

Same thing happened to me. You must have forgotten a file or something. Try reverting back. If you can't restore, you'll just have to factory reset, bring it back (I had to bring mine back to 7720) and then work your way back up again. This time make sure to have the language files included.

Good luck!

Not too sure about the Omnia W. Was there a firmware update before or between the updates? Check the OW forum to make sure . Like Sirataxero says, the restore should do it or a hard reset for a try. And for the DVP, you can always force flash back to 7704 and update again, so there might be something like that for the OW?
