if you unlocked your phone with chevron or any other registry editor you are fully unlocked. However if you have a true developer unlocked phone (via a dev account with MS), then you cannot install interop apps on Mango. See here for details.
A user with a legit dev unlocked device cannot deploy ID_CAP_INTEROPSERVICES xaps. They just get the dreaded E: 0x81030120 error.
Here is what the expert says.
but there is hope for Samsung and HTC users. Heathcliff just released a new procedure to fully unlock without going back to NoDo here.
---------- Post added at 02:02 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:54 AM ----------
btw. there is another thread announcing the app. Schaps also updated the registry editor which works fine on my LG Quantum.
there is no straight forward way to uninstall the newly installed apps from the settings page. I successfully uninstalled with XAPDeployX. Sideload the xap again and check "force uninstall if application is already installed". Then click deploy. The program will uninstall the existing one on the device first and report this in the deploy tool with a success message. Right then you unplug the phone from the USB. Voila - it is now uninstalled and gone from settings.
Somebody else posted that you can install an older version (e.g. v1.3) that will show up in apps. Then you uninstall and it normally and it will be removed from settings as well.
just in case it doesn't work for you and you want to remove it...

if you are on Mango until now only LG users were able to get into the registry via the MFG tool to unlock their devices. Other users would have to go back to NoDo, fully unlock, set measures to prevent relock and then upgrade. But Heathcliff seems to have found a way to do this without going back to NoDo. He seems to be very close to a solution, working on Samsung and probably soon on HTC as well. I'd suggest you wait and follow that thread before going the painful back-to-NoDo route.

I'm on Mango beta. To install the official release, I'll have to revert to NoDo. I did on a previous phone, and escaped unharmed.
So depending on which arrives first, how do I fully unlock, etc. before installing the official update? I tried previously, but must've done something wrong because it didn't work.
I am following Heathcliff's thread. With reverence, awe and bated breath.
Again, thanks.

Many believe that if on 7720.68 you will just see firmware and radio updates rolled out to your device and you are all set. We really do not know at this point and might as well throw a coin. There seems to be some evidence that those on 7720.68 won't have to roll back.
If you do have to go back then unlock and stay locked using these guides

im on unlocked samsung focus mango 7720.68 using version 1.4

Debrand and unlock your Samsung Focus S to receive updates immediately

I was searching for a way to debrand my AT&T Samsung Focus S to receive the latest update and was at first surprised to find out that none of the registry editors work and secondly, that I could not find a simple way how to unbrand it.
So here is a simple way for anybody who was looking for the same thing.
Please note that this will unlock and debrand your phone (and I’ve also thrown in the 3G toggle tweak) but after you update to 7.10.8107.79 through Zune, you will no longer be able to use the ProvXML method of deploying registry settings (that we are using here).
All credit goes to Deathbyvegemite who told me what to do and Jaxbot and his WindowBreak Project which helped me figure out how to do it. This is really just a simple modification of his work, so I have to thank him and all the other people that have worked on this.
Okay, so to do this, please follow these steps:
1) Open your mobile browser and go to: http://www.kremese.sk/debrand_focus_s.zip
2) The file will be opened. Follow the instructions and tap on “debrandfocuss.xml”
3) Press Start
4) Navigate to Phone
5) Dial ##634#
6) Type *#9908#
7) Select DebrandFocusS
8) Press Save and Reboot
After that, connect to Zune and you will receive the 8107 update.

Thanks for the hack! I'm completing the Zune update to 8107 now, it should be complete in another minute or so.
I have some wifi issues with the Focus S -- as well as several other people I know and I'm hoping that even though this update does not say it fixes the wifi connection issue, I'm crossing my fingers that it does.
Thank you again, I always love having the latest OS version installed.
-John

Well, it's been a couple hours since I completed the upgrade to 8107 and I just had the phone reboot during a phone call.
Thanks for the update, but I'll go back to my backup and wait patiently for the official update. Not that this one isn't official, but there maybe special tweaks that need to be done for the Focus S/i937 or AT&T.
-John

To be honest, I don't think it's related to the update, but I can of course understand that you want to be safe.

Doesn't seem to work for me. Not seeing any updates.

Do you have an unlocked device? If you have a registry editor you can check under this path:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\Platform\DeviceTargetingInfo\MobileOperator
The string value should be "000-88". If it still says "ATT-US" then please try again and follow the instructions precisely.

Yes, unlocked. Do you know of a registry editor that works on Focus S?

There are a couple that work, but currently only in read-only mode.
This one is the most user friendly I think:
EDIT: Argh, can't post outside links. Please google "Registry Editor for Windows Phone 7 Beta Testing".

Got the registry editor working. It still says ATT. I've gone through the process 5 times now. Each time it tells me "debrandfocussProvisioning succeeded" but after the reboot it's back to ATT-US.

but does this just give the OS update? Does this also give you the firmware update?
is the focus s out there for anyone else but ATT?

Not sure about the firmware update, but my firmware version after the update is: 2103.11.10.1.

developer unlock to full interop unlock ? possible after Tango ?

I've been running around in circles for hours, is it possible to go from a developer unlock to a full interop unlock -after- having updated to Tango 7.10.8773.98 ? I can load some XAP's, but root tools and wintt fail.
I had to format my PC and lost my backup.

I'm sort of in the same boat as you. I will be going to my local at&t device support center and getting my phone flashed. I'm hoping the guy there can use the oldest rom he has and or give me a copy of it. I'll post results.

no is the short answer if you have already got the newer firmware, the Windows build has little to do with it,although the tango builds do phone home to relock but that can be prevented
dev unlock is not interop unlock, which is needed to access high privileged functions
if you didn't update the firmware but you did let it relock then simply reapply the unlock and then apply the relock prevent xap, but I suspect you have already tried that suggesting you have the new firmware as well

perhaps ATT will flash the older ROM, I doubt it though and I doubt it even less that they would give you a flashable copy
but stranger things have happened so lets (hope) wait and see

Not what I really wanted to hear, but that's about what I figured/expected. I can't imagine going into AT&T & finding someone who had a clue about re-flashing a WP device.

I test this method in devices unlocked by a code that I bought in libertyunlock.com, the unlock it's permanent, the tethering otherwise I don't really know if you will losing it, because the devices that I updated don't have a jailbreak and by this method (unlocking by code) you need the At&t tethering plan to tether. I presume that making an update in a device jailbreaked you will losing it at the time your firmware change...
Sorry for not be more useful Greg

I can however help a bit more
upgrading to 7.8 will not permanently lock your device, it will however attempt to relock its self once its installed, this can be stopped by either applying the relock prevent xap again or by applying the unlock again
if you update the firmware then all is not lost, you can stil unlock or remain unlocked as mentioned above, if you hard reset though you will not be able to apply the dev unlock as you had originally done
course this is all academic now that all 2nd gen samsungs can be unlocked regardless of their firmware, search around the WP7 forum for the answers, it is harder than the original unlock by beggar's cant be choosers

Good question, what is your OS and firmware version?
Demo mode suggests that its not a retail model, it may be lacking features.
however, if you are running exactly the same OS and firmware version then perhaps we can compare and find out what is making it restart. I suspect that its different versions though

Interop
This worked flawlessly on the first try for me.
one problem though (or question)...
i was attempting to do an interop unlock, however i forced another backup not realizing that the original 7.5 backup would have been overwritten...
since i'm now faced with the samsung wireless manager apn list being empty issue, how do i go about getting the software downgraded without the backup or getting the interop unlock without the samsung wireless manager blocking the entire process?

that's the one, I don't understand why your not able to change the APN, the wireless manager is still on the market place
the process of the V3 unlock adds the correct settings to the APN settings, so if you had problems before on the older update process, you should try the new one anyway

[Q] Getting update Notification?

I have windows phone 8 developer account.
i have installed preview for developer app from store.
after configuring app...i went to setting > phone update > check for update.
And i got notification a new update is ready for dowload.
i did not updated...because my data plan is costly...and before download i want to know...what is this update?
is it windows phone 8.1?
* I am using lumia 520 with Lumia black update.
As its latest current update.
So pls some one tell me...what is this new update, i am getting notification for that?

It's one of the many minor updates that get released through the developer preview, not 8.1 yet... It shows you the version of the update, so I think it's logical that if it says 8.0.105xx.xx that it's not 8.1.
You can update over wifi, infact, that's recommended, rather than the mobile network.

There's a confirmation to install the update after downloading it anyhow. Basically, if you see a notification that there's an update you can download, but it doesn't tell you what the update *is*, you can safely approve the download (though you may want to be on WiFi, if you have capped cellular data). Once you have downloaded the update, you'll get another notification telling you what the update is (what gets updated, and to what version) and will have the option to install that update or postpone it. If you choose postpone, it will periodically remind you every day or so.

First of all, you didn't specify what's your current version. So i guess its either GDR2 or GDR3.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Second of all let me tell you about WP8 updates:
GDR2 = Update 2
OS version: 8.0.10327.77 or 8.0.10328.78**
GDR3 = Update 3
OS version: 8.0.10501.127, 8.0.10512.142, 8.0.10517.150, or 8.0.10521.155*
(Source: Windows Phone 8 update history)
----------------------------------------------------------------------
What you got is a GDR3 update, and if you already had the GDR3, thats probably a minor update fixing some targeted issues, so, my suggestion is: Go for it, update it, its safe.
P.S. It will not void your warranty, it's an official OTA update. Unlocking and Rooting will void your warranty.

Oops! Sorry for not mentioning that. Yes I have GDR3 installed and I am using lumia 520
Thanks!
