this update is meant to be coming for most wp7.0 handsets, but I find that after searching this forum nobody seems to be discussing it which surprises me. surely iam not the only one aware of it? there is a new start screen simular to wp8, and a rumour of bluetooth file transfer, but not sure what other extras. its meant to be due the end of this month. microsoft claim it will be the fnal update for wp7 users. |

@banbury | 25 November 12 | |
just out of curiosity has anyone managed to transfer files via the nokia play to dnla app to other phones or devices? or via some other method over wi-fi?

Bluetooth File Transfer among capabilities like taking screenshots etc. The update for Windows Phone 7.5 is said to arrive in 2013.

yeah meant to be quarter one 2013. there are also websites that claim nokia are launching an app for it for their first generation lumia phones. actually ive just noticed that polo has mentioned wp7.8 on one of his posts, even if very briefly.

TECH RADAR STATEMENT ON WP7.8 NOVEMBER 19TH 2012: nokia has let it accidently slip that the 7.8 update could be landing on users handsets within weeks, if not days as the updated software has now been released to the manufacturers. it claims the consumer roll out will definitely happen before 2013 but 7.8 wont be coming with IE10. all I can tell you is that I last checked Zune yesterday and nothing as of yet.

interestingly the Finnish brochure seen with the 510 claims 7.8 wont be the final update for wp7, claiming that support in the form of updates will be ongoing. unless this is just for Finland? your guess is as good as mine! its nokias home ground after all.
