[Q] LG Quantum still has not received mango

---

Still have not received the mango update. I've been searching and researching this issue for more than 4 months with no luck.

When connecting to zune, it says my phone is up to date with current software version: 7.0 (7392)

i have tried the "walshed" phone fix but that was not the issue.

also, the phone doesnt seem to have full functionality with WPDM and whenever i try and install a .xap file, the application wont launch after being installed on my phone.

the reason i am this desperate is because i want to back up all of my text messages on this phone. my mother passed away recently and it would means a great deal to me that i keep those conversations. if i am able to do this without installing mango, then that is fine by me.

my logic in installing mango is that all of the latest apps such as smsbackup require an unlocked mango device.

i have tried installing WP7 Root Tools so that smsbackup is able to operate on this lg device.

any input would be greatly appreciated, thank you in advance

To backup all SMS and all messages in Messages tile, use SMSBackup. Then try to flash your phone with Telstra ROM, here is the guide.
Note #1: Your phone must be network unlocked first before flashing because you might not be able to enter unlock code once you flashed it to Telstra ROM. The only solution is re-flash to its original ROM then enter unlock code then flash it to Telstra ROM again. You can buy unlock in Ebay.com and price is as cheap as chip.
Note #2: The reason that I suggested Telstra ROM is because it is the only network that give the latest Mango update for LG Quantum, but no sign of Tango.
