What is your Firmware version and OS version now? I noticed, if you do NODO trick, it will only update the OS version.

what is the NODO trick.. and how to do it?
*
NODO trick:
1) On your phone, go to Setting->Network Connection. Disable your Data Connection. Disable your WiFi too if it is connected.
2) Connect your phone to the computer via USB. Zune will automatically detect your phone. Go to your Phone Settings in Zune. Look for the UPDATE button in the list.
3) Now, here is the important part, which wasn't clearly explained in a lot of tutorial. Get a stopwatch/timer, click UPDATE. Depending on your network speed, it will prompt that your phone is already in most updated version. Lets says the time it took to detect the update version is 7 seconds.
4) Click cancel. Then click UPDATE again. Unplug your LAN cable (or disable WiFi if you are on wireless) after 5-6.5 seconds you clicked UPDATE. Zune will continue to check for update. If you timed it well, it will prompt that there is a new OS version.
5) REMEMBER, replug in your LAN cable/WiFi. Then click Update and wait patiently. It will take around 15 minutes per update. It will update from 8107 -> 8112. Then redo Step 4, you will get 8773. All these were only OS update. After updated to 8773, let Zune continue to look for new software, you will get Nokia firmware update automatically. This is for the FW version 1750.0805.8773.12220 for Malaysia unlock set.

You may to try Step 4 a lot of times....it needs a lot of patience. You need to switch off your Internet connection around 1s before you it says no update. I was about to give up last night, until the very last try, I got the new update prompt. laugh.gif

The reason behind this method could be due to Microsoft's way of distributing update. They are implementing "throttling" update, which means only selected number of phones (means random) will get the update prompt. This number will be increased from time to time. If you notice the first time you do Step 3, Zune will pull around ~500KB data before it says you do not have update. I suspect the server is sending a flag (at the very end of step 3) to our Zune to say it does not have update, when in fact it has....just that they are randomly sent. By disabling your network, your Zune did not get that flag. thumbup.gif

Yes. That was the part which was not clear in other's tutorial because everyone has different internet speed.

While we are on this.... wanna ask, who can successfully install Camera Extras? sweat.gif

Make sure your network bandwidth is consistent when you try this.

die... how to make sure streamyx speed is consistent??

Normally if your computer is the only user and you do not download anything else other than using Zune, it should be consistent enough.

Don't think it is due to NODO update. I haven't figure it out yet.

im using lumia 710, update using nodo method, camera extras working fine for me.  It could be your region settings since its supposed to be available for China and the US only for now. However my phone region is set to Singapore and it still works so  hmm.gif

Mine is set to Singapore too but can't install it. hmm.gif

does that happen to every shot or only this shot?

I think it happens when exposure is low. I took that photo using macro focus (bcos I forgot to change) and Scene set to Macro as well. WB set to Auto.
I think the Scene setting affected the pic. Normally what do you use to get such stunning pics?

I did not observe the behaviours you mentioned to warrant such conclusion. I'm using Celcom.

How about this? http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/winphon...f0-c535ef38e550

Why dont you use Google contacts in the 1st place?
For me, I'd rather go for Singapore one. Much more content IMHO.

I noticed my Google contact doesn't fully sync either. Some contacts' phone numbers were left out. :-/
