Nokia Lumia 800 & 710 has updates coming. Tango rolling out globally from June 27th

It was the only Tango related image I found, sorry.

Along with Nokia Conversations posting about new apps coming, they have also posted news regarding an update coming. This is more than likely Tango,as the update comes with “tethering, media streaming from your device, and Flip-To-Silence”. We have seen confirmation that the update is floating around, being tested and approved recently by Vodafone Australia. The update that brings tethering has also been confirmed, based on Software Version, to be Tango. Let’s hope it is the same one.

The update will be phased in globally, starting from June 27th, via Zune. Apparently, the update is needed to fully take advantage of the apps highlighted in the previous post.

They also make mention of the 7.8 update for existing devices.

Elsewhere, you may have read about the new Windows Phone 8. How does this affect your Lumia? Well, you are not being left out. All Lumia smartphones will be getting an update to give you some of the features of Windows Phone 8, including the new Start screen, as well as a pattern of ongoing updates going forward.

    So Build 8773 is Tango? If that’s the case there are a ton of Tango FW on NaviFirm for the 710 (I didn’t bother looking at the 800).

      How so? Because the WP7.8 update won’t magically bring new hardware to existing phones?

        wp8 app wont run on wp8.i dont think many devs will be intrested in porting apps especially games to wp 7.x.

      • Maybe says:

        They were promised that their phones will be upgraded to WP8…
        Even some of them just own the phones less than a month and the phones are already outdated…

          Outdated!?

          My Lumia 800 runs fast and smooth!
          And that’s all I care about.

          Last week I was using my friend’s Xperia S, opened a few games and it got hanged.
          This thing never happened on my Lumia.

          I just care about smooth performance and no hanging issues( that I had with Symbian and Droids).

          And I’ll stick to my Lumia 800 for next 2 years.
