application-unlock HTC Mteor (Swisscom XPA v1405)

Hello
I am searching for a way to unlock a HTC Mteor. This is required because we want to sync the phone with Lotus Notes 7.
I have tried several tools, like regeditstg2...but nothing is working because i am not able to change any registry key.
Thanks in advance for your help...
Greetz, Che

I have attached official HTC certificate unlocking tool and sda unlocking tool.
step 1: install this cab on your device.
step 2: if full application unlocking is required, please run sda-unlock tools on your desktiop computer while ypur device is connected to desktop computer via activesync.
running these files will not invalidate your warranty. all changes that are made to the device registry by these utilities will be removed after device hard reset.
cheers!

Hello SecureGSM
Thank you for your support! I have tested it yesterday and it was perfectly working, i was able to unlock the phone and install the sync software.
Greetz, Che

no idea. But I will try it with my new Monet tomorrow. Who is your badged to (Virgin ?)
the bible for htc smartphone unlocking:
http://wiki.spv-developers.com/HTC_Application_Unlock_Guide
indicated that Meteor and Monet can not be app unlocked. but this thread indicates that Meteor can be.
Could you try cert.cab and then spv_services on your monet and see if it works ?

Hello SecureGSM
i had the same problem with the Swisscom-Branded HTC Meteor. They locked everything, some Registry-Parts are write-Protected and the SPAddcert.exe didn't work.
But this cab-file worked perfectly, so thank you very much.

Thanks indeed! it works!!

BIG GREAT Thanx...
I was desesperate...U know like housewives...
After hard reset, I was unable to re-unlock my HTC Mteor.
After reading your post,
I started the cab from memory card.
I launched SDA-Unlocker from pc while Active sync was "on" trough bluetooth.
I restart my Mteor
I use checklock to confirm that everything is ok...
And...
EVERYTHING is OK.
Many many many thanx to you, guys... ))

is it working on an spv e650 ?

this method works for*ANY* HTC manufactured device, be that PDA PHONE or SMARTHONE.

Failed to edit the Registry
Basically every action to do a full application unlocking fails because whatever tool I try (regeditSTG or sda-unlock tools), at the end every change of a registry key ends with the message "Unable to perform this operation".
I´m using the original ROM 1.13.251.2
Any idea what might cause the problem?
BTW - the SP_AllowCertificateInstall CAB worked and solved my original problem that I couldn´t install a certificate for our mail connection.

Looks like the SP_AllowCertificateInstall CAB was the key for success.
After running the application unlocking tool again now the registry can be edited as well.

Installation of the cab file
Hello Secure GSM,
Can you please tell me more about how to install the cab on my device? For example I would like to know:
- Do I have to copy the file (it doens't seem to run itself)?
- Which file do I have to copy then: the .cab file or the .xml file (which is inside the .cab file)?
- To which folder on my device do I have to copy the file?
You would help me a lot by answering these questions!
Thanks in advance!

2 joosthuismans: The basic knowledge of WM installation is that if the file you want install is .cab, you must copy it somewhere to your device and run it by some file manager (DO NOT unpack it!), and if it is .exe, you have to run it on your PC. Sometimes you may need to install some .cab file, which is not suitable for your device and it can not be installed by built-in installer. In this case you can unpack it and install it manually following steps in _setup.xml file...
2 everybody else: sorry for OT, but I felt little bit sorry about him =)

SPJAS Unlock
I have I-Mate SPJas. I have tried several unlock tools including HTC Unlock toll, registry edit, SDA Unlock....
My original SPL version was 2.05 and after I ran SPL file I had IPL=SPL by des and SPL=7......
I have also applied other methods and my phones seems to be application unlock. But when I try to upload a new rom the phone goes to blank. I could never prevent this condition.
Is there a way to update Imate SPJas to Win 6.1? Which ROM works?

*IF YOU ARE ON SPRINT, VERIZON, TELUS, OR ANOTHER CDMA CARRIER, DO NOT

*Preparations*
* This tool is for Rhodium (Touch Pro 2).
* If you have Vista or Windows 7, WMDC update to at least version
6.1 -> http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/en-us/help/synchronize/device-center.mspx
***First: Beware that your Anti-Virus protection ***may Cause a issue with the downloading process and installation of this Hard-SPL***
If it does , disable it, then proceed with the download and installation of the Hard-SPL, Again This Hard-SPL download is not a Virus...
Next insure you have at least 50% battery left and also disable your screen saver...DO NOT RUN any other programs while this operation is Running.
*Instructions*
* Download Hard-SPL tool from the attached file below
* Extract it to an empty folder.
* Connect the device to the PC with a USB cable.*** Do not Disconnect !!!
* Sync the device with WMDC or ActiveSync.
* Make sure the cellular radio is on with a data connection, because
Internet access is required as the program checks online for
updates and the license.
* Run Rhodium-HardSPL_V2_00R3.exe on the PC. It must be launched
from a local drive, not a network location. XP requires
Administrator privileges. Vista/Windows 7 should automatically
prompt you to allow it to run in Administrator mode. Allow it to
do so. If it doesn't, right click and select "Run as
Administrator.
" If you get an anti-virus warning, please ignore
it. It contains no harmful code. This false positive is due to a
packer being used to compress it.
* Follow steps as prompted in the Hard-SPL program.
If this is the first run of Hard-SPL on a device after hard reset, you should
select Automatic flash mode (the first button in Welcome screen).
* It will ask you to wait while it prepares for the flashing; press OK.
* Now it should go through without any error messages, if one does
pop up, then please follow the instructions included in the error
text. If no specific instruction is shown, then ask for help in
the thread, but this should not ever occur as this means a fatal
error occurred.
* At this point the device did hopefully went to a black screen
reporting version as 1.10.C-SSPL only using "info 7" in mtty, this
is the SSPL version, which is temporary. The RUU will then
instantly launch.
* SPL will now flash. The device will automatically reboot. Job done.
* To confirm you have installed properly, go into bootloader mode
(Reset the device while holding the volume down button), and
verify the screen shows 0.85.OliNex, which is the Hard-SPL version.
*Side-notes:*
* You should generally go for Automatic flash mode. The Manual flash
option is only to be used as noted below. You must only attempt
the Manual mode option if Automatic flash mode or SSPL-Manual.exe
already put device in black screen. Any other errors triggered
while running in Autoflash mode will need to be fixed as
instructed in the error message.
* If you get an error message for the Hard-SPL program that says it
cannot connect to the device, then use the cab file that the
Hard-SPL program asks you to install on device.
* Once you install the cab on the device, rerun the Hard-SPL
program. DO NOT freak out as your device appears to completely
power off. Leave the USB cable plugged into device and computer
and follow onscreen prompts.
* When the RUU says it will hard reset, don't worry. It isn't going
to do that. Also, when it says the flash will take 10 minutes,
ignore that. It will only take a minute or so.
* This is unsigned Hard-SPL. No limitations on flashing ROMs (except
of course some Radios). Also, this has overwrite protection
against HTC RUU's overwriting Hard-SPL with a stock one. This
means that if someone needs to revert to stock SPL for warranty
reasons, a stock SPL downgrade package is required and is posted
as an attachment below. Use this relocker **ONLY** if you need to
return the phone for warranty, and **ONLY** use it as the last
step after reflashing stock OS and radio. See steps at the end of
this post about how to reflash stock SPL.
* Anyone having USB problems with the device after it entered SSPL
mode, please copy SSPL-Manual-Rhodium.exe from
SSPL-Manual-Rhodiumxxx.zip attachment in this post, copy it to the
device and run it. then once the screen has gone black, run the
Hard-SPL package on the PC and you must select Manual flash
option. **important*:* make sure that the USB cable is plugged in
and device is synced to Windows Mobile even if doing manual method.
* Do not use this RUU for anything other than SPL flashing (i.e.
hardspl or stock spl restore). Nothing other than SPL's made by
Olinex team, using OliNex custom cert, which is not public, will
flash to make SSPL more secure. If you want to flash some other
ROM, then use the shipped RUU or Rhodium customRUU.
* For developers asking: Hard-SPL is not based on MFG SPL, as it can
only be used for development and hacking, contact cmonex in PM if
you need that one.
* Supported OS versions: both 32-bit and 64-bit XP, Vista, Windows 7
and later. Windows 2000 and lower were not tested. Also, the
program may be unstable or not work on Virtual systems, so it's
recommended to try outside Virtual OS software. Also,to verify the
version: if Hard-SPL package says V200R in first Welcome dialog
title and version 2.00 in About box, it is the latest version, not
some crappy beta/old version.
*Troubleshooting* and *Step by Step on reflashing stock SPL* are in next
post below! Please take the time to read them, they could help keep you from banging your head on the keyboard and saying "Why is this not working!!!"
*credits*
First, "OliNex" is a team which means: cmonex + Olipro
Olipro -> Concept of EXE program that runs on the PC, Hard-SPL concept,
server-side license code and maintaining the licenses.
cmonex -> HSPL package on PC, SSPL loader for windows mobile and SSPL
binary. Hard-SPL binary. (SSPL loader: partially based on haret and old
pof & Olipro jumpspl code)
Finally,
*Donations are always appreciated, the Hard-SPL program will provide you
with a link at the end of the process to make it easier. Any little bit
helps! Thank you and enjoy!*​

*_Troubleshooting FAQ_*
If you are having problems, make certain that you've read the information in the first post.
My antivirus software reports this is a virus. What gives?
This program contains no harmful code. It was compiled using a packer, so it may be incorrectly reported as a virus by some software. Simply disable the anti-virus software and try again.
I get the FATAL ERROR that "HardSPL is for NON Commercial purposes...." What do I do?
To fix this, please contact us at the http://support.htc-unlocks.com link (our support ticket system) and use the *Rhodium Hard-SPL* category! Alternatively, you can send a donation, this is optional if for personal use.
Why doesn't this work even when I've already donated?
If you donated in Manual mode, you didn't enter an IMEI or it was mistyped. If you donate in Automatic mode, that will always work as long as the error message was about the commercial usage. To fix this, please contact us at the http://support.htc-unlocks.com ticket system link and use *Rhodium HardSPL - Paying* category!
I get sync issues/a sync error text while running the program.
Check to make sure the phone is NOT in flight mode. Next, try installing http://hpcmonex.net/roms/enablerapinew.cab on the phone. If still same error, disable your firewall temporarily (e.g. ZoneAlarm or Sygate can interfere sometimes). Check the phone screen for any error messages, that can cause a sync error too (such as incompatible model message).
The enablerapinew.cab file cannot be installed on the phone.
Do not extract the CAB file on the PC, copy it to the phone without unzipping it.
I followed the instructions, but nothing happened. It didn't enter the black screen mode.
First make sure the box is unchecked at Start > Settings > Connections > USBtoPC > Enable faster data synchronization. Make sure you've used Automatic flash mode before to put the device in SSPL. If you hard reset your device, you have to repeat Automatic flash mode at least once. Please make sure you watch the device screen during the Hard SPL process to see if it asks about running files. It probably won't, but just in case, check. For example it can warn about model incompatibility.
The program gives me a connection error during the process.
DO NOT UNPLUG THE USB CABLE. If you get connection error in RUU after the device goes to the black SSPL screen, make sure device was still synced via USB to the PC at the point of it entering SSPL (the black screen). It may take some time for the program to see the device again. If it doesn't, you need to wait for it to time out or wait about five minutes, whichever is first. Then, leave the USB cable plugged in and press the reset button with your stylus and start over.
The program gives me ERROR 260 CONNECTION message. What do I do?
DO NOT TRY TO FLASH THROUGH A USB HUB. Disable your anti-virus software for the duration of the flash. If that doesn't help, reboot the PC. Then try a different USB port on the PC. If that doesn't work, try a different USB cable, if you have one (original HTC cable is the best). Make sure you don't move the cable around while it is flashing. If this does not help, download SSPL-Manual-Rhodium.exe from the first post, copy it to your device, and run it. Once the screen goes black, run Hard SPL package on the PC and select Manual Flash.
The device shuts off.
It didn't actually shut off, this is the "black screen" mode, it is ready to flash Hard-SPL at this point, do not worry about the sync getting lost, just continue with the next step on the PC.
The program says it's for a different model or mine isn't supported.
If a message on the phone screen says it's for a different model or device, please check modelID by entering SPL tricolour screen manually, and note what it says for RHODxxx, where xxx is a three-digit number.
T-Mobile, AT&T phones, RHOD100, RHOD200, RHOD210, RHOD300, or variants of these are supported by this package. RHOD400, RHOD500, and variants are CDMA versions and are *not* supported by this package.
My device says that Enterbootloader.exe failed to run due to missing component or corrupt signature.
You'll need to do a hard reset to fix this issue. Turn off the device, and hold talk/send, and end buttons while pressing the reset button once. Release the buttons when the device asks you to confirm the hard reset and press volume up to confirm. Note that a hard reset will factory reset your device and return it to its original shipped condition. You should back up your programs and data before doing this as it will all be gone after the hard reset.
My PC gives me a RAPI.dll error message.
This happens on Windows 7 with versions of Windows Mobile Device Center. To fix it, download and install the latest version of Windows Mobile Device Center.
I get an error message that says the server is down.
First of all, do not use a proxy as the program doesn't support it. Turn off all firewalls including windows built-in firewall, and check if your AV software includes firewalls. Most companies have firewalls on their networks; try this when you get home. Don't tether to the phone being unlocked. Wait 24-48 hours and try again. If it still doesn't work, contact us at http://support.htc-unlocks.com.
I get a corrupt data error message.
Download the Hard SPL package again from the first post of this thread, to be sure you have the latest version intact. Sometimes the download may cut off part ways. Try with a different Internet connection if that doesn't work. If you still have trouble, contact us at http://support.htc-unlocks.com.
The program just crashes and doesn't give me an error message.
Check to see if you have DEP (data execution prevention) enabled in windows. If you do, disable it. Turn off your anti-virus software for the duration of the flash. Sometimes Windows 7 x64 gives problems, try it from a different PC. Virtual PC software is not supported.
When trying to run the program, Windows says it cannot access the path or file.
Disable all antivirus software. Make sure you extract the EXE from the ZIP file before running it. Don't try to run it from a network folder.
The device reboots instead of going into the SSPL screen (black screen).
While this is unlikely to ever happen, if it does, contact cmonex.
My problem still isn't fixed, or I can't find my problem here
Post in the thread. There are several users who monitor this thread and can help you with your problem. To make it easier for the users to help you, please provide as much information as you possibly can. This can include things like your PC operating system, antivirus software, or anything else that might help us figure out your problem. You should also quote any error message texts you are getting.
How to reflash Stock/Shipped SPL - STEP BY STEP - FOR WARRANTY REASONS ONLY!
1. Flash the Stock ROM. If the stock radio isn't included, flash that as well. This must be completed first.
2. Download the Relocker attachment, extract the zip and run the EXE on your PC.
3. If you wish to replace RUU_Signed.NBH that got extracted, feel free to do so, but not necessary. This Hard-SPL will only allow overwrite with a SPL signed by our custom cert. The included one is the 0.79.0000 stock SPL. You also have the option for 0.84.0000 and 0.87.0000.
4. Flash the SPL.
5. Verify if it flashed by checking version in tricolour screen, it should say 0.79.0000 (or 0.84.0000 or 0.87.0000), *not 0.85.OliNex*.[/QUOTE]

[Q] HTC HD7 desaster mango update

Hi every one ! i have a HTC HD7 from T-mobile and i did the Mango beta update on it and i did not make a backup file, i have been trying to go back to the previous OS settings but all of the programs or ROM that i try running, can not see the phone connected to the computer. I get error 260, not one of ansar ROM can see my cell as been connected even though i check that it is and that active sync sees the phone as been plugged in and the drivers are installed. Can any one help me to do this down grade, please

you'll need to d/l a rom from ansthar, based on who your cell phone provider is.

Please, give some more info about your phone (OS version,Radio software version etc...).
You can find them on your phone (settings - about htc hd7 - more info).
Thanx

the phone is a T-mobile HTC HD7
OS 7661.WP7_5_Trial
(mojobld).20110607-1657 what is this?
Radio software version:5.51.09.11axxxxxxx09U
Firmwear revision number xxxxxxxxxxxx.531
you see i did use the windows phone support tool and i run the tool to its completion but the mango update did not install, than i downloaded a program called "provision" than i downloaded the zune 4.8 than the update started automatically and smoothly . i soon after deleted the window phone support tool thinking that i would not need it again, until i read that i need a back up to restore my phone if i wanted to install the mango update later. will i have downloaded just about every tool out there to restore my phone but when i run the tool it does not see the phone as been connected , i checked and i see the phone plug in my activesync so i was wondering that since mango is installed this programs do not see it since they where made for nodo. your help will be greatly appretiated , thanks in advance

Are you using the new Zune for Mango? cause the old zune won't recognise your phone
try this link Here
See if you can go back with zune... ALWays BAck Up!!

Ok. To what tfn wrote I say YES you should always make a backup and you can do it as it's explained on the link he provided.
For Your phone, since you dont have backup go to http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=876451 and find RUU_Schubert_TMOUS_1.20.531.01_Radio_5.51.09.11a_2 2.31.50.09U_by_ansar.
Download it - this is original ROM for flashing your phone - it will take you back to 7004 version. Follow the instructions in ansars post.
This one worked for me.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1101344 - here you can follow instructions for updating to NoDo and Mango.
Now some important thing...
1. When you are taking beckup you have to have Zune 4.7 installed (not 4.8)
2. You can also see my thread (it could be helpfull) - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1179095
I hope you will make it!

i will give this a try and thanks for the help

i guess i'm **** out of luck, i did everything as written on the post and I did manage to get the ChevronWP7. ChevronWP7 does not see the phone as been connected , i try the steps with zune4.7 and 4.8 and i get the same message the chevronwp7 can not connect to the phone, also when i run the Application Deployment throws an error stating that the phone is developer locked and i need to contact Microsoft for steps on how to unlock it .

I need some help..can someone with a T-Mobile US phone please list all regedit keys for the HD7. After screwing around with the regedit settings to enable the HD7 read as a storage device, this happened and is the cause for Zune or any other program to not read the phone.. thanks in advance. i need all regedit keys with values and exact name.

ChevronWP7 does not see the phone as been connected , i try the steps with zune4.7 and 4.8 and i get the same message the chevronwp7 can not connect to the phone, also when i run the Application Deployment throws an error stating that the phone is developer locked and i need to contact Microsoft for steps on how to unlock it .

Did you get your phone to 7004 version with flashing?
If yes then:
1. send to your e-mail (which you have configured on your phone) chevron.cer in attachment
2. open that mail on your phone and tap on attacment
3. install cetificate
4. in settings on the phone turn on FLIGHT MODE
5. connect the phone to a computer and start Zune
6. run Chevronwp7.exe as administrator
7. check those 2 boxes and press unlock
DONE.
I just did it on mine hd7 (just to be sure).

No i could not do a thing, no one of the steps that you have recommended have work, all i get is an error message from every single software that the device is not connected so i cant do a thing . is like my phone is not connected and i get error. i get the same error weather i have zune 4.7 installed or 4.8 . i also get a message from Application Deployment : the device is pin locked or the device is developer locked , contact microsoft on how to unlock the device or go to a web address . I mite be missing some drivers or something

To downgrade, you need to boot into the bootloader first.
1) Power off the phone (while disconnected from USB)
2) Hold volume up and press the power button
3) Continue to hold volume up until you see the RGB screen
At this point it will say something like "Serial Mode"
4) Plug in USB
5) Wait until it says something like "USB Mode" (you may need to install drivers on your PC, they're available via windows update, so you don't need to go searching for them)
At this point, you can run ROMUpdateUtility.exe, and it should succeed.
EDIT:
You only need to do this if downgrading via the RUU. To restore a backup via Zune, this is unnecessary.

The only program that seems to see the hd7 connected to the computer is zune4.8 if I install 4.7 it just does not see the phone connected. I got a windows XP tower hat I'm thinking to try all this steps and see if I can do it, actually do all the software I downloaded would work in windows XP?

Try the steps that I mentioned. If Zune opens, close it.
I had the exact same issue that you are, and this is how I was able to revert to a earlier version.

[Tutorial] Upgrade to 7720 HD7 Mango RTM Chevron Unlocked

Hi Everyone,
First of all, I do not endorse the paternity of the files published here.
I just want to publish a guide to ease up your upgrade to Mango RTM and keep your HD7 chevron unlocked.
Prerequisites:
- Windows 7 32 or 64 bits
- Zune version 4.7
- Windows Phone Device Manager/TouchXperience (1.3): http://www.touchxperience.com/en/applications/viewcategory/22.html
- Cotulla RSPL/HSPL: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1195647
- 7720 package: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1215501
- Ansar's custom rom for HD7: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1201169
- a custclear provxml file (see attachment)
- mango update package (see attachment)
Install procedure:
- Install RSPL/HSPL on your phone (rspl was enough for me)
- Back in bootscreen, install Ansar's custom rom (this one is unlocked + prevent relock)
- Once restarted, install thru marketplace (very important, do no sideload it) config connection from HTC and run it once
- Fire up windows phone device manager and let him install touchXperience on your phone.
- Once started and connected thru WPDC/touchXperience, copy in your phone windows folder the file custclear provxml
- After that, with zune not running , run with admin privileges the file "update" found in mango update package and let it do his stuff
- When finished, Zune should open and warn you an update is available (7403), do it
- After this one, zune should prompt you to update to 7712 (if not, just do an update search thru zune settings
- If all goes well, you should after this be in Mango beta 7712
- Disconnect your phone and uninstall zune completely
- From the package 7720, install the new zune version and the update wp file
- Reconnect your phone but be sure you don't have zune running
- Copy from the package 7720 the folder RCToRTM to the root of your c drive (c:\RCToRTM)
- From this folder, run the file ISVTo7720.bat with admin privileges
- If all goes well, your phone should begin its update to 7720
- If your phone updates with no trouble, once in 7720, run once again the htc config connection app to install the custclear provxml you copied earlier in your phone windows folder.
- That's it after, you should have a Mango rtm phone unlocked!

Nice tutorial..!!!
Sent from my {HD7} using XDA Windows Phone 7 App

My phone keeps relocking after I update to 7403, any solutions?

Is there any difference between HD7 RTM Mango and non-specific RTM mango?
I have a non-specific RTM Mango in my HD7.

Yea same here said touchXperience has been revoked by ms pls uninstall......
This was the fix duh - If your phone updates with no trouble, once in 7720, run once again the htc config connection app to install the custclear provxml you copied earlier in your phone windows folder.
Also the update zune was able to do all the updates 7403 ect did not need to downgrade......
BTW: BIG THANKS!!!!!!

Feel Like im using HD2 again
I love this! Feel like i am using my HD2 again. In the last 3 days i have flashed my phone 4 times I am trying this right now. Installing 7720 now. Going to run connection setup when its done. so i unlock on 1st beta then unlock again on 7720 correct. Done updating time to check. UNLOCKED you are great!!

How do I use the htc config connection app to activate custclear.provxml?

Connection setup is pre installed on the ansar rom just click the check mark..... After you send the file do not mess with it wait to get to 7720 then unlock it..... I unlocked on beta then was relocked by the time i got to 7720 so i had to do it all over again..... Also i do not think touchXperience is going to work in mango.....

how do I "do an update search thru zune settings"?
I restarted everything and I still can't get the update from 7403 to 7712 "/

Im having the same issues. Cant update to 7712 after 7403. =/

I'm having 2 questions.....
- Where in this procedure can we add the "language string"?
- Will there be a backup made from the phone, so you won't lose settings etc....

good job worked fine here and direct

Issue
The only issue that i have with this is that it doesnt upgrade my Firmware or Radio in zune. I have upgraded my Radio with HSPL and have my phone unlocked but I never got the choice to upgrade it. I would like to know how if i can get the firmware upgrade w/o zune. I am using Tmous HD7 and I think it might be because the base rom to start all this off is EU.
Never Mind HTC took it down.

Not happening here, you sure you're using Ansar's custom HD7 rom?

For those having trouble with relocking, you need to install WPDM and touchxperience before updating to 7403 and leave zune closed. Than copy the provxml file via WPDM to the windows folder of your phone. Than update but do not use config connexion until you're in 7720. Hope this helps!

Hi, I can't update from 7403 to 7720..
Zune isn't giving me options to update, it says that my phone is up to date.
I've done everything in the sequence, but still a problem..
What you said (with ISV_Provisioning_Live.exe), isn't getting to help as is see..
Stuck on a white screen from the Provision like an hour..
Someone has a solution for me ?

I don't understand how you get to 7720.. after 7403 i can't even connect to wpdm.. and touchxperience has been revoked.. and also zune can't find any more updates after the 7403. Got anny suggestions?

[working] how to pass chevron to mango official

Hi Everyone.
here i come again with a "new" (maybe not) trick......
this trick is to pass the chevron unlock to Mango official....
First, you need to put CustClear.provxml (exactly)
then, download the BGMagic.cab on my another thread (my way to force mango aka 7403 way)
and, download those files (for english)
MainPackage
English MUI Package
DPI262
and, apply it, i assume everybody knows how to apply update to your device
if it's finished, restart it
then, run connection setup, and, voila, you got it....
NOTE: Maybe you'll say that this is a usual update steps, but, wait, this is not the usual way of updating, because you didn't install the hTC update, it keeps your SPL and radio, and it also removes the "67mb" limit of XAP Deploying........

Or just follow these instructions... Worked perfectly for me...

Funny that simply disconnecting your Internet whilst it checks update validity tricks the update system...
