New Windows Phone OS update rolling out. Addresses disappearing keyboard and more.

OS build 8107

Just a few hours ago nosotros just posted on the 810x builds of Windows Telephone and now Italian site Plaffo is noting that their LG Optimus 7 merely received the very same update: Bone build 8107. More exciting is the news that information technology came with a list of changes, nigh of which will make almost folks very happy:

It solves a problem of the keyboard on the screen, preventing the keyboard to disappear while typing
Resolves an issue with syncing Gmail
It solves a trouble of access to the location. After the upgrade, the part IO hub sends to Microsoft bearding information contact the Wi-Fi access points and antennas for mobile phones in the vicinity, only if you have allowed access to and use of location information from part of the "I'm here."
Revocation of certificates issued past DigiCert Sdn Bhd to solve a trouble of encryption
Fixes a problem with the e-mail related to Microsoft Exchange Server 2003. When you reply to or forward an email, the original message is now included in the response.
Fixes an issue of notification of voicemail

Equally you can meet, this is a maintenance build, addressing many ongoing bugs and issues including the troublesome "disappearing keyboard" which plagues all Windows Phone Mango devices. That keyboard problem occurs when the on-screen keyboard will suddenly disappear when typing, due to certain background tasks "stealing" the focus, resulting in much user frustration. What is not clear, nonetheless, is what are the plans for Microsoft and the carriers for rolling this out. This looks to augment the 7740 Bone parcel with even more fixes (if users don't have 7740, this new OS update volition add together those changes). Since U.s.a. carriers skipped the 7740 build, they would seem obligated to roll this out to their customers.

In addition, since the Nokia Lumia 710 and 800 are running that update too, users of those devices should expect to see an update as well.

Once again, we expect more info almost this OS build next week at CES but peradventure Microsoft volition chime in on their blog before then with more than details.

Update (half-dozen:08PM MST): Microsoft has sent us a argument:

Our engineering squad has developed a service release which has been delivered to our carrier partners for their assessment. Details on specific improvements contained in these releases are bachelor via the Windows Telephone Update History folio.

Nosotros're told the history page is lagging behind a bit but should reflect changes soon.

Update 2: No shocker here, but the update doesn't set the "SMS bug" co-ordinate to Tom Warren who tested it. That'southward expected as it is not listed in the changelog.
