Folks,

We have heard a small set of devices were receiving the error 8018830F when trying to take Update 1 this morning.  We need your help to look into this further.

Please reply to this thread and provide the following details:

  1. Make/Model of Device (Ex: Nokia Lumia 925)
  2. Country device was purchased in
  3. Mobile Operator if device is branded a specific operator (during boot up does it display a Mobile Operator logo?)
  4. The Manufacture ID for Device (Nokia Devices Only!)

Note:  To find the Manufacture ID,  go to Settings -> Extras + Info -> More Info -> It should be the first row listed.

Please keep this thread limited to devices seeing this error message.  If you have another error please search the forum or create a new question.

Thank you,

Eli A.

    Hi gang,

    I second ZahraR_8791 ´s view, my Lumia 735 still runs pretty well under version 10.0.14393.1770 (be noted I have very few apps, all of them downloaded from the store, but no social networking, no email, no games at all --> I use my laptop for all that stuff with a bigger screen not having to sacrifice my eyes in a 5less inch screen).

    I´d love to switch to the fruitish brand, great OS, safe, and as long as I now, with less and painless updates, but I have a very simple problem ... can´t afford it ... not enough money.  The android way is NO WAY, not safe, prone to frequent resets, phone restore to original settings ... not so reliable.

    So, I´ll stick to what I have and, since the phone is running fine so far, stay with ver. .1770, won´t attempt to download ver. .1884 any more, just keep expecting (and hoping) MS will arrive to a solution asap.

    I´m extremely disappointed with MS, can´t believe they launched an update without extensive enough testing. Most surely not related to this, but didn´t MS learn after a similar issue when they launched a past version?? (guess it was .448 ??).

    Hope MS arrives to a solution quickly.

    Good luck all!!

    Dear Eli A

    I have been advised that this issue is resolved.  However, it's not.

    I was advised by my Nokia Lumia 830 that there was an update to my W10 Mobile.

    I went to the update, downloaded it and got the 0x8018830f message.  I came looking for help at this website to see that the issue had been resolved.

    What am I doing wrong?

    Much appreciated for your assistance.

    Dr TJ Aaren
