Hi Guys,
I am from Mumbai,India. I bought a AT&T Unlocked Samsung Focus from e-bay seller "cellforce.in" couple of days back.
I updated my phone till version 7392 after that it was not showing any updates to be install after turning on/Off my internet connection as written in the forum but was unsuccessful.
So i stayed with 7392 update, i used the phone the entire day yesterday but when i got up it went in boot loop and searched on the internet and no solution some back got my phone to download mode accidently and rolled back to the previous version and it seems its working fine.
Anyone faced such issues on Updating?
Can we not update unlocked phones in india to higher versions?
Please let me know your views on the same.
Regards,
Mario

Then make sure you have Zune installed on your laptop. Pair your phone with Zune, an your contacts, and your calender will be synked with all three, E-mail, phone, and computer.

Are there any problems regardin... moreget the memory card at the beginning as insertion of card on this particular phone is a "hard" reset and you'll have to redownload all apps. Paid ones are still free if purchased already as it is linked to that Indian Live ID. cheers

You can buy from cell force. I bought it from him. suggestion :please buy a memory card of 16/32 gb(class 10) before upgradation so that u neednot have to factory reset later when u think that ur running out of space)
@vivek
Upgradation to windows mango 7.5 steps
1. Connect your Windows Phone to a PC and launch the Zune client.
2. Click on Phone/Settings/Update. Allow the software to tell you whether an update is available. If so, skip this guide. If not, continue to the next step.
3. Click the update button again, and this time immediately disconnect your computer from the Internet (some people have better luck waiting 1 to 2 seconds). Do this by pulling the Ethernet cable, disabling Wi-Fi and ensuring there is no Internet connection.
4. After around 30 seconds or so you should receive a notification that an update is available. This is 7392, a post-NoDo security update.
5. Connect your machine back to the internet and continue with the update process through the Zune client.
6. After 7392 is fully installed, you may receive a notification that another update is available. If so, install Mango now. If not, proceed to the next step.
7. If the second update isn't popping up on its own, repeat steps 3-5, causing the 7403 update to appear. 8. Install 7403.
9. After 7403 is installed, Zune should automatically start installing 7720, Mango. If it doesn't happen automatically, force it using steps 3-5 once again.
10. Windows Phone 7.5 "Mango" has been installed!
