[Q] Will we get official mango for htc hd7?

---

Will we get official mango update for htc hd 7?

I'm asking because it's ready and has been shipped to carriers for testing.
But news mention just nokia, and fujitsi.

So what about htc hd 7?

Of course we will. Not like Android, which chooses which phones will be updated. Official will be for all Windows phones!

Since its been shipped to carriers for testing have they given an actual date as opposed to the fall season.

The current version is beta, not for resale as it says on the windows screen when the phone starts. Certain things don't work and are not enabled including API's. Official version will be very soon, possibility as it looks is September, but no official word from Microsoft. Running mango myself, it is ready for release, few small glitches here and there lime html5 implementation API not working yet but is there. All the rest is fine. Volume now is loud and speakerphone is useful once again, as well as the volume steps are changed from 10 to 20 now. All the new hubs and custom hubs as email work great. Search, new look and feel market, people, photos, social integration, Facebook chat not yet. It is there but only redirects to Facebook. WiFi,3g, bt all work much better. Visual voice mail not available in this beta build. For anyone installing the test beta, please note that this. version will not upgrade to the official mango. One will have to revert to no-do first. All settings will be lost.

Microsoft has taken the Apple approach here, so almost all windows phones will get the MANGO update.

AS mentioned above its looking to come around september/October, unless you have a carrier branded phone which might push it a couple of months more, as Microsoft lets them test it for their networks.

It rumoured RTM is almost ready to be shipped so hopefully we on target.

Tried the mango beta and looks really promising.

Has anyone heard about WiFi calling?

Visual Voicemail works for me... And I do notice the volume is loader (thank god) but I don't see me being able to go to 20 instead of 10.....

Anybody verify this? Volume was always a big issue, especially plugging in to external speakers and such through the audio jack.

When you say the volume is louder do you mean when a headset or headphones are in? Also are they iphone/ipod loud?
What version of the beta are you running 2 or 1?

Microsoft wants a full blown complete update in one shot. Whether carrier branded or not as of RTM the carriers also have their time to test it so given that mid to late October is about three months from now I do believe everyone will be receiving the update regardless of carrier branding.
