Focus updated to Mango (from different versions)

---

Hi folks, there are many threads about updating to Mango so I want a simple and clear post so everyone understands it.

7390 -> 7720 unconfirmed
7392 -> 7720 unconfirmed
7660 -> 7720 unconfirmed
7712 -> 7720 success on v1.3, chevron unlocked, samsung tools 0.7 work (preinstalled)
7720 RTM -> 7720 success on v1.3, chevron unlock preserved

I'm v1.3 on AT&T, had 7712 beta ISV and received 3 updates (7720, cleanup and Samsung update). Still unlocked via GPRS settings/unlock.xml (sms xap).
Whole process took about 90 mins.

I have now:
OS Version: 7.10.7720.68
Firmware revision: 2103.11.8.1
Hardware revision: 3.1.0.7
Radio software: 2103.11.8.1
Radio hardware: 0.0.0.3
Bootloader: 5.8.0.2
Chip SOC: 0.36.2.0

if you started from the versions above, please confirm success and unlock status. Also include any others versions I haven't, and I will update
Ideally: OS version (7xxx), success or not, hw version (1.3/1.4), matching or not final revision numbers (just list differences for firmware, radio software/hw etc)

Thanks!

If it's the Samsung Update, you will be unlocked afterwards.
Alternatively, you can install WP7 Root tools, it works in Mango.

Wp7 root tools alpha 0.5 just does not work for me ... and the thread says coming soon for Mango .. which version are you referring to ?

Is it advisable to first install Mango RTM to get the official release of Mango for Focus 1.4 ? Or will it be risky?

WP& Root tools 0.7 for Mango

Both methods imply more or less the same thing, from a technical perspective.
I suggest you update normally, to avoid any possible mishaps as in the Walshed phones. So far, there is no indication that if you force the RTM will be issues afterwards, but I personally wouldn't risk it. The numbers are the same if you do and you will still get the 2 updates from Ms-cleanup/Samsung as posted across the forum. So, your choice.

Somehow I couldn't get the Internet Sharing options in Settings using the regedit.
