Fix Walshed WP7 Update Error Code 80180048 Permanently With Walshed Phone Support Tool

by on May 14th, 2011 in Microsoft, Windows Phone 7

Windows Phone 7 7392 update was a pretty big one for all WP7 users. However, carrier related issues delayed NoDo release for many Windows Phone 7 users which was bringing a security patch for those who resorted to using a hack created by Chris Walsh to unofficially update WP7 devices to firmware 7390. Microsoft warned all those who had updated using this tool that they would not be able to further receive any future updates for their devices until and unless they resorted to re-flashing the device with an original stock ROM. To be precise, users encountered error code 80180048 when trying to update their Windows Phone 7 device in Zune. However, now a fix for error 80180048 has been released meaning that ‘Walshed’ WP7 owners can now receive official firmware updates from Microsoft.

Chris Walsh has received the authorization from Microsoft to release the ‘Walshed’ Phone Support Tool, which means that Microsoft is welcoming back users who had used unofficial means of updating to NoDo, with open arms.

    I’ve followed the instructions, and used the above app, no problems.
    But I get the same error when Zune attempts to install the latest update.

    Any Ideas?

    Many Thanks
