My Lumia 900 is currently at revision 7.10.8773.98 which according to the changelog is the latest revision.

I was just offered an update via the Zune software taking my phone to software version 7.10.8773.98. As you can see, the OS version has not changed. Does anyone know what this update has changed?




Workstation: Intel DH67CL ~ i5-2500 ~ 4GB Corsair RAM (x2) ~ Intel X25-M 80GB SSD

Laptop: Dell Inspiron 1564 ~ i5-520M ~ 4.00GB RAM ~ 500GB SATA HDD ~ Win7 Home Premium x64

Common misconceptions.

My new firmware revision is 2175.2503.8779.12301. I can't see a changelog from Nokia anywhere; Google isn't turning anything up, at least. Anyone have one?

Ah ha! Found it! Just a few changes, nothing to be excited about.
