[Q] Flashing 7.8 the good and the bad?

[mcosmin222]

I'm considering flashing 7.8 with nokia care suite. Being the first time I do this, I wanna know a few things

1)Is is possible to restore if something goes wrong without losing all the data?

2) What kind of nasty things are there, waiting for me on 7.8? Crashes, bugs, etc etc?

Hi,

Firmware downgrade is supported on LUMIA phones.
And data will be lost - of course!

It's all fine except for the volume reduction. If you use your phone to listen to music or podcasts, be warned that the new maximum volume is about the equivalent of the old 15 / 30.

I Don't wanna loose my SMS and savegames.
So I consider making a backup of my Lumia 800 with the help of this app and upgrade with Navifirm and Nokia Care Suite to 7.8. Is it possible to restore the backup with zune for getting the SMS and savegames back or wouldn't it work?

The volume on my lumia didn't become lower, I got once a message that listening loud music might be dangerous for my hearing and that's all!

Thing is, I updated it then went back to 7.5

The Bluetooth file share app wasn't available for download. Any cluse as to why this may happen?

Yeah, I am facing the same problems with BT Transfer and Ringtone maker. It looks like there is some region restriction. Do you know which are the working regions?

I'm still wondering how some people can't notice any difference. Well, good for you... I guess. Because for me it's just horrible. >.<

Download the APAC1 ROM. They are meant for India. Both the apps are working fine on my phone.
