Microsoft Temporarily Suspends Windows Phone 7.8 Updates by Nobody: 10:38pm On Mar 08, 2013
Microsoft has stopped Windows Phone 7.8 updates for the aged Windows Phone smartphones like the Nokia Lumia 800, Lumia900 and Lumia 610. The company is working to fix a software glitch in the release, but it's unclear how long the suspension will last.
The folks at CNET claim to have received a confirmation for the halt of the update from Nokia as well. According to a representative of the Finnish compnay, the glitch seems to be a minor issue in the Windows Phone 7.8 software and the roll out will resume shortly.
The latest Windows Phone 7.8 update comes with a refreshed home-screen and resizable live tiles. Unfortunately, this seems to be the last major update for the Windows Phone 7.x smartphones as Microsoft has already confirmed that these smartphones will not begetting to taste Windows Phone 8.x.
