News · 31 Jan 2013 · MTW Editorial Team

Nokia has just started its Windows Phone 7.8 update roll out today for the Lumia 900, Lumia 800, 710, 610 and 510. Other manufacturers have yet to announced any date but as it’s usually the case you can already update your trusty Samsung, HTC, LG E900 or even Dell Venue Pro right now if you aren’t afraid to do it all by yourself. To do so simply follow the instructions below and grab the correct packages after the break:

– Download the 7.10.8779.8 update from the first link below along with the language pack needed then download the WPupdate tools from here.
– Unzip the Tools in a folder then unzip the firmware in the same folder as the tools.
– Plug in your device, wait until the Zune client starts and then close it.
– Run the the Updater and press S or B (depending on the size of your balls..)
– your phone will then reboot in download mode and update (don’t unplug it or do stupid things with your PC during the whole process..)
– Do exactly the same with now for the 7.10.8783.12 and 7.10.8858.136 updates which are Windows Phone 7.8

Please note OEMs are also pushing devices specific firmware updates that you will have to wait for in the coming days/weeks.
