i just wanna open this, thread to see if we can contribute to fine a solution.

hope anyone is interested to fine a way.
sorry for my bad English


im @rom 7.0.7392

Read the thread I started.

After you've updated, connect to Zune, click Phone-> Settings -> Update. There you will have the option to restore
You have to do that on the very machine you upgraded.

i did that, but after i have upgrade to 7.0.7392 i don't have the restore option anymore.

It means either Zune deleted the old restore after the new update or something else happened and your backup got deleted. Check in the folder, do you still have the files? Don't just look for it, also check the size of the whole folder.

didnt find it, but i got a vmware, with the old update i did restore it back and install the .cer and udpate to nodo work fine now thanks

restoring backup help

---

Need a bit of help guys. I need to revert my focus to the original rom. I updated to nodo thinking I could unlock and sideload afterwards, but of course.. I couldn't. I've reformatted my pc since then and don't have my old restore point. I'm downloading a 7008 backup from a user here on XDA (thanks munkeyphyst!!!)
but I don't know how to get Zune to see it as an old restore point. Can anyone tell me where I need to put the files?
I have XP SP3.
thanks in advanced.

I think a lot of people need to check the thread PavelX1 started

^What he said. Original Focus ROM available now. But as a side note, you can not use another persons backup files on your phone. We tried that, but it doesn't work. Install the ROM or wait for the new Chevron unlocker to come out

There's a new chevron unlocked coming out? I thought they weren't going to develop anymore after that meeting with Microsoft

Yes, as you can read on their blog.

As announced on the Windows Phone Dev Podcast, we will soon be launching an approved Windows Phone unlocking service as part of ChevronWP7 Labs. This will be available to developers across all skill levels and all regions.

The service will require a small fee — currently via PayPal — to offset costs but we assure you it will be more affordable than the App Hub. Those who wish to write and immediately publish apps are recommended to sign up to the App Hub instead.
