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?

Would be a firmware update provided by Nokia. What is the firmware version number?

Do whatever you want to do man.

yes its an update from Nokia not Microsoft. I got the same update on my Nokia Lumia 900 about a week ago, this was widely reported on fan sites like wmpoweruser, wpcentral etc

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?
