Windows Phones receive (7.10.8107.79) software update

Microsoft has released an update for their Windows Phone platform and it fixes an issue which has been plaguing Windows Phones for some time now, and that is the keyboard disappearing issue.

We found this update on our unlocked Nokia Lumia 800 and it should also be available to other handsets.

The update takes the operating system to OS 7.10.8107.79 and the changelog of this update follows:

• Fixes an on-screen keyboard issue to prevent the keyboard from disappearing during typing
• Fixes Gmail syncing issue.
