update: it is stuck at OEM logo at last reboot:

this is what the manual says:

hope it comes alive at some point....

edit1: darn. Here is one that didn't work. Everything went according to script until the last reboot. After 1.5hrs of no booting I gave up and reset. Definitely good to have a backup of the backup :). Back to where I started. Do I want to try this again? Maybe later, maybe I just wait until release to public.

Im trying to figure out how to get live messenger integration working. Anyone?

Think i figured it out
[Windows Phone 7 General] f0lken:
Just go to the messaging app and below there´s an icon tap that and set your status to connected.

To send a message select a contact and select text+sms
[Windows Phone 7 General] matthewhypolite:
yea already figured it out, thanks.
[Windows Phone 7 General] f0lken:
Has someone figured out how to make custom ringtones?
[Windows Phone 7 General] Talys:
Yes. Set Genre of any MP3 or WMA to "Ringtone". It will then appear under Settings -> Ringtone & Sounds as "Custom" (above all the "Windows Phone" ones).
[Windows Phone 7 General] matthewhypolite:
Exactly how does the wlm work for you guys?

But when user reply, i dont see it on phone.

any tips to update to mango? All we need is just use chevron unlock the phone or what.
[Windows Phone 7 General] jzyaa:
And i think the most important thing that you need to do is to unlock SPL before you install mango
[Windows Phone 7 General] jimmyzerol:
what is spl?
[Windows Phone 7 General] daryld:
jus wanted to let o2 hd7 users know i successfully updated to mango without havin a dev account all i done was return to the very 1st o2 rom for our phones then done the chevron unlock the normal way but also installed prevent relock.xap and then ran it from my phone from here i then let my phone update fully to nodo update once u get to that stage follow the instructions in the pdf that another member posted earlier hope this helps :)
[Windows Phone 7 General] webwalk®:
my guess is : service provider lock

but thats another problem and has nothing to do with mango....

.....

ive tried to resist, but im goin to start update soon on my

chevron unlocked mozart

hope it will stay unlocked, found mixxed report's
[Windows Phone 7 General] ace10134:
Once you're registered to the App Hub through your free student account, you will have to "submit" a little test app. So create some Hello World app and go to the App Hub to submit it. Then, the GeoTrust service will send you an email so they can verify your identity. Once you verify your identity, you'll have to wait up to 2 days for Microsoft to get the confirmation about your identity. Then your account will be a true developer account.

To register a device as a developer device, you'll use the Windows Phone Developer Registration tool. Depending on what you have downloaded so far, you might already have that software on your computer.

Run that software, connect your phone, and if you successfully got your developer account, it will register your phone as a developer.

I'm at the point where I verified my identity with GeoTrust but I'm waiting for Microsoft to accept that I'm a developer. Waiting sucks.
[Windows Phone 7 General] jimmyzerol:
CHEVRON UNLOCKED MOZART is good to update to the mango cuz i see about a dozen of posts has announced that their mozart with chevron unlocked can update to MANOGO successfully.

but i never hear the report whether the quantum whick i have got can update to mango.
[Windows Phone 7 General] derausgewanderte:
Well, here is one that didn't work on LG Quantum, unlocked via MFG. Everything went according to script until the last reboot. After 1.5hrs of no booting and staring at the LG logo I gave up and reset. Definitely good to have a backup of the backup. Back to where I started. Do I want to try this again? Maybe later, maybe I just wait until release to public.

and the interesting part is that this is mentioned in the instructions:
[Windows Phone 7 General] M1cky:
Can you link me to the o2 rom you used please? I tried flashing an older hd7 Europe rom but it didn't work. I'm sure I can dig out the prevent relock.xap somewhere. Thanks.

EDIT: It worked, used stock HTC Europe rom. Chevron unlocked it, installed preventrelock.xap. Updated to NoDo then on to Mango. Yum!
[Windows Phone 7 General] the92playboy:
I have an LG Optimus Quantum, and had it unlocked and "keep unlocked" via the MFG menu. I had no luck with installing Mango, so I hard reset, and then unlocked again and tried to run the DevRetailUpdate but would always get one of the three error messages stating that I did NOT have a developer unlocked device.

I am confused as to why my device is not being recoginzed as a unlocked dev device, seeing as when I do the registry edit, I get the Output result = 1 which I believe indicates the unlock went as planned.

Anyone want to help?

i have a LG OPTIMUS UNBRANDED, no provider lock, and fully UNLOCKED, (can deploy XAP etc.)

is there any way to get the mango-beta on my phone? if so, HOW? :confused::D
[Windows Phone 7 General] mmian:
Hey guys, just wanted to let everyone know that I have a Samsung Focus chevron unlocked, and the mango beta installed flawlessly! The only thing that doesn't seem to be working is facebook chat, anyone know why?
[Windows Phone 7 General] oelapoel:
do we have to install Windows Phone SDK 7.1 Beta 2 if we only want to use mango?
[Windows Phone 7 General] Turkishflavor:
how did you manage to install the update? :)
[Windows Phone 7 General] oelapoel:
i read it somewhere you need to re-sync your facebook account before using fb chat...
[Windows Phone 7 General] swanny78:
excellent thats what I need to do....where do yiu get the pre no do ROM from? cant find it anyuwhere....im htc on 02 too?
[Windows Phone 7 General] jzyaa:
MangoB2-ZuneClient.zip this is zune4.8

MangoB2-UpdateWP.zip

MangoB2-DevRetailUpdate.zip

these are required.

and also you need to update your vs2010 into sp1.

and also you need to install sdk 7.1 beta1
[Windows Phone 7 General] swanny78:
Sorry should say its an unbraded ROM I have now.. it was O2 ..so a pre nodo unbranded would be good for UK
[Windows Phone 7 General] Turkishflavor:
can someone upload the 5 megaupload-files to another server? megaupload is pretty slow right now!

[Windows Phone 7 General] annem:
Please can someone PM me with links? :(

Does anyone have the update instructions (PDF) in version 1.2?
[Windows Phone 7 General] webwalk®:

[Windows Phone 7 General] nok_fusion:

[Windows Phone 7 General] jimmyzerol:
Closing Zune

Checking if your phone is dev unlocked...

Failed. Please try the following

1) Connect the phone

2) Launch Zune software and wait for it to connect to the device

3) Close Zune software

4) Restart the tool.

same problem .any hint?
[Windows Phone 7 General] Keefo:
if all goes well i hopefully will have it on my Mozart! haha

If i have got all this correct from reading most of this thread...

I need all the files (GOT)

Update to SDK 7.1 (Doing that now)

and also vs2010 to sp1, not sure if the SDK update is doing this aswell?

then as my phone is "unlocked" i should be able to mango correct?
[Windows Phone 7 General] :
got a tmous hd7 that was chevron unlocked before nodo. I was able to get passed the dev unlocked no problem, and installing the last mago update now (7661)

darkf0rce

not a developer, and I downloaded the 5 files off megauploads.
[Windows Phone 7 General] behh:
same problem!

Ive got developerunlockstate 1 in mfg menu, and devretail update shows that or another info about not unlocked device
[Windows Phone 7 General] YannieBoy:
Have the same phone, same situation regarding unlocking and Nodo. First had the No Device found issue then fixed it, now getting the checking if device unlocked failed message with the restart zune prompt. Most certainly dev-unlocked....any suggestions?
[Windows Phone 7 General] :
I didn't do anything special. And my phone is tmobile branded not unbranded. Uninstalled zune, installed new zune, I had a problem with the updaterwp.exe, deleted it from the zune dir, reinstalled, ran the devretailupdate tool, backed up my phone, copied the backup to a special dir, and just followed the instructions! And mango JUST got done updating.
[Windows Phone 7 General] hasanajouz:
i have htc hd7 chevron unlocked and I can't pass the dev unlock test

does it have any thing to do that my phone is unlock prevented?

did you install prevent unlock?
[Windows Phone 7 General] :
i did the chevron unlock, and the the htc prevent unlock. My homebrew apps arent working anymore though.
[Windows Phone 7 General] webwalk®:
awesome!

thank you microsoft!

and thank you brave developer for the files!

updated chevron unlocked mozart

took quiet some time....

now some mango magic....

too bad the unlock is gone :(

time for chevron to strike again...
[Windows Phone 7 General] nok_fusion:
How can i delete the prevent relock without hard reset?
[Windows Phone 7 General] ziggy89:
I have mozart and it works fine.
[Windows Phone 7 General] marco89nish:
I signed up long time ago, before WP7 was launched :) Got email at 3AM last night here in Belgrade, Serbia. I haven't registered device, I got it dev unlocked with chevron before NoDo update.

BTW, Mango is booting for the first time right now! Success!
[Windows Phone 7 General] :
i had vs2010 without sp1 and sdk7.1 and everything installed just fine.

[Windows Phone 7 General] ov2rey:
i using HTC Trophy Build 7392

how can i unlock with build 7392?

last time i unlock with build 7008 before, but after i reset my phone unlock gone
[Windows Phone 7 General] Keefo:
sweet!!

mines just going through the backing up process at the moment :)
[Windows Phone 7 General] marco89nish:
I got invitation with my student account, also not confirmed by geotrust. I just managed to update to Mango, I had to revert to pre-NoDo to get phone dev unlocked with chevron and prevent relocking. Other than that, everything is straight forward.
[Windows Phone 7 General] :
7392 cant be unlocked, 7008 and and 7004. After installing mango your phone will revert to being locked.
[Windows Phone 7 General] ov2rey:
is there a way to roll back?

i don't have back up file
[Windows Phone 7 General] superaca:
how to unlock after mango update?
[Windows Phone 7 General] dawgmeat:

[Windows Phone 7 General] TeNsTrKe15:
ok great thanks. i just submitted mine for identity confirmation so now that i know it will take a day or two i can stop getting frustrated with trying to add a device. thanks again! :)
[Windows Phone 7 General] :
you'll have to find a stock rom to update down to.

darkf0rce
[Windows Phone 7 General] :
mango relocks you phone. so you cant run homebrew stuff. theres currently no work around at this time.

darkf0rce
[Windows Phone 7 General] ov2rey:
emo.. i give up.. wait for official update
[Windows Phone 7 General] colossus_r:

Hi, i did this unlock method on my LG Optimus 7 with MFG : www DOT wp7forum.com/windows-mobile-store/lg-unlock-and-prevent-relocking-using-mfg-app

When I run DevRetailUpdate, it says:

It detects my phone as locked? How can I pass this error?
[Windows Phone 7 General] dawgmeat:
you have to register your phone again...
[Windows Phone 7 General] Constellation06:
how can i do this?

(sorry for my bad english writing and comprehension, i'm french and i'm 15)
[Windows Phone 7 General] Keefo:
1. Unlocked Mozart

2. Not Developer

3. Now Locked

4. Nope.

all worked a treat and installed with zero problems! :)

Just updated the SDK and VS, then followed instructions.
[Windows Phone 7 General] abhilaksh:
reporting back

1) unlocked htc mozart

2) dev

3) unlocked mango

4) can install .xaps except the reg editors/config tools and basically anything granting low-level access.

5) haven't hit the sideload app limit strangely?

Edit: Hit the sideload app limit.

So, well, looks like we'll have to wait for someone with enough brains to make a reg editor without using interop.
[Windows Phone 7 General] superaca:
unlocked mozart

not dev

locked mango

im in between of sad and extremly happy on mango
[Windows Phone 7 General] Keefo:
why sad?? haha

Im loving it!

Everything is just so much quicker and loads of new handy features!

im really really impressed with it :)
[Windows Phone 7 General] moonshines:
i just have a question to those who succesfully updated their phones to mango

did it resolve the 16bt banding?
[Windows Phone 7 General] blindpet:
Would like an answer to this as well, mine got locked too. I just tried some other things and it's updating again but some people are saying they can still sideload. It would be great to know if the sideload limit was intact as well.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Keefo:
from what i have read so far, only LG owners can still side lock due to a diff way they unlock/keep it unlocked.

I have updated to Mango and if you tell me i could test for you.

Not got a clue what it is, but if you tell me ill test haha

Also, FB chat does not seem to work, as when i go to turn it on, it tried to take my to a FB page to enter some details or something but comes up with Page can not be displayed...

:EDIT:

FB chat DOES work, you have to add Facebook to your MAIN Live account.
[Windows Phone 7 General] moonshines:
its the issue that many has after updating to NoDo. its color banding seen on images on the phone

to give you details about it HERE is the link where its was discussed here in xda (sorry i really dont know how to explain the color banding)

here is also an article published by wmpoweruser

youtube demo

thanks in advance Sir
[Windows Phone 7 General] ace10134:
The 16-bit banding can be seen in the app WPBench, which you can download from the marketplace. Go to the screens tests inside the app and look at the gradients. Are the gradients smooth or choppy? If they're smooth, then 32-bit is working. If they're choppy, then 16-bit is still being used.

And yeah I haven't heard of people getting FB chat to work yet. I'm currently making a backup of the backup, and then I'll be on Mango soon :)
[Windows Phone 7 General] abhilaksh:
nope. banding's still there. but it's beta. let's wait. and it's just a small registry hack away. let's see how it goes.
[Windows Phone 7 General] domineus:
I don't have any banding

actually I have excellent color...dunno if its 32 bit but there is a huge visual diff

dvp
[Windows Phone 7 General] reallynice:
Here's what I did with my LG Quantum:

- Reset my phone (backup everything I wanted to keep)

- Did the MFG unlock step (don't do the prevent relocking)

- After unlock step, keep phone on same screen! (don't press back, home, power, anything!)

- Run DevRetailUpdate and it should be working!

Good luck!

1. LG Quantum

2. Not dev

3. Locked initially but unlocked with MFG

4. Can install XAPs from PC
[Windows Phone 7 General] Keefo:
Just tested Banding on my Mozart, and its still there sadly!

Hopefully fixed when official release is out!

2. Update to 7401 successful.

3. Update to 7661, currently stuck at OEM logo.

I may be added to the list. I've been in the OEM boot screen loop for a good 10 minutes now.
[Windows Phone 7 General] ace10134:
I just had to sit through that, it did take awhile.

to get fb chat working, go to the settings, go to Accounts, and delete your existing FB account. Then, create the Facebook account and it should be working.

IE 9 kicks ass by the way. No more lag when typing in text fields.

Tmous HD7. Chevron unlocked NoDo. Used the HTC Prevent Unlock. On Windows 7 x86.

WPUpdate doesn't recognize the unlock.
[Windows Phone 7 General] blindpet:
I could still sideload after the 7401 update, so sideloading ability is messed with from 7401 to 7661..
[Windows Phone 7 General] Turkishflavor:
there is a new "Update Instructions - Mango Beta 2 for WPDevs" online.

can someone upload "Update Instructions - Mango Beta 2 for WPDevs" v1.2?
[Windows Phone 7 General] Crazziee:
One tip for samsung owners trying to upgrade. Make sure that your phone is set back to zune sync if you have been using it for teahering.

Otherwise the backup tool will not find your phone.
[Windows Phone 7 General] fb401:
How long was "awhile" for you? I'm at the hour mark now.
[Windows Phone 7 General] MrPappy86:
Sorry i searched for it :)
[Windows Phone 7 General] matthewhypolite:
Worked like a charm, thanks.

This mango tastes delicious!
[Windows Phone 7 General] ace10134:
Damn. Okay so you were doing the actual Mango update (not pre-Mango) and your Zune software is on step 9 of 9 correct?

I waited 15 mins maybe, and then decided to turn on my phone's screen. The start screen was up there and the phone was working, so I just unplugged it. Zune software then said that the update failed, but I was running Mango so no it didn't! Once you unplug the phone, restart it, and it will say Update Successful.

Hope that helps! God I'm loving IE9.

I have a question... I have a Nodo Focus, never tried to dev unlock it. If I do a hard reset, will it go back to the original OS or Nodo? I've got the Mango itch, so if I do a hard reset and it goes back to the original OS, then I could Chevron unlock it and update to Mango based on what I've read, but because I'm already on Nodo, I can't use Chevron... thanks!
[Windows Phone 7 General] ales_x1:
Try the method posted on windowsphonehacker.

It doesn't require Chevron :)
[Windows Phone 7 General] derausgewanderte:
mine sat at the LG logo for 1.5hours and I unplugged it. I wasn't able to boot it after that and had to hard reset and put the backup back in place. I will try this again tonight one last time.
[Windows Phone 7 General] fb401:
Here's one for the record books. After letting my sit for 2 hours, I decided enough was enough and cold booted the phone (vol up + vol down + camera). It wiped my device BUT it booted Mango. I don't want to start over cold with Mango so I'm going to try to restore back to 7401. Then go back to Mango.

Tried the fb deleting account n signing in again method , didn't work for me,

Then whiles in the same menu, i imediately re-added my fb account.

And working fine.

For reference my FB and WLM uses the same email add.

[Windows Phone 7 General] pornogeroc:
yeah is say we're connecting to facebook and after the address is not valid...
[Windows Phone 7 General] swanny78:
downgraded to pre nodo ROM, to chevron unlock, but checron tool doesnt work. Keeps saying it cant comminucate with my phone. Tried all the fixes from google no joy.

Any ideas how I can unlock my phone to install Mango

Upgrade successful.

No dev.

Chev unlocked edit registry to keep unlocked.

It was pretty straight forward.

Many thanks xda.

Please can someone PM me with a link to the new installation instructions (v1.3) on connect? :(
[Windows Phone 7 General] derausgewanderte:
sorry, but I am kinda glad I am not the only one with this particular problem. Yours is bizarre though. You cold booted and it showed Mango? wow. Whenever I do that (last resort) it shows the initial rom from which I can reinstall my backup.

I tried again and waited and waited. This was the last time I tried this. it goes all the way through to the last step installing the Mango update and stalls at boot logo (step 8 of 9). We know MS recommends to wait for up to 45min. They are aware of the lag but say it should come on even after a long time. I waited for 2hours, no luck. Hope they fix this until it's released or maybe my phone is buggy.

cheers.
[Windows Phone 7 General] ceesheim:
it took me 3 hours to update to mango :(

the first was fast (10 min) 7401

but the actually mango update took really 3 hours (7661)

so just wait and wait and wait :(
[Windows Phone 7 General] fb401:
I tried again and on step 8 of 9 I waited for 2 and a half hours and nothing. This time I just went into download mode to just do straight restore. When NoDo came back up, my battery was SUPER low so I caught it just in time. I think I'll try one more time tomorrow. I'm wondering if it has to do with my registry being edited to disallow relocking...

When you say it took you 3 hours, are you talking from the very beginning of the update (step 1 to 9) or from the final reboot (step 8 of 9)? If your step 8 took 3 hours, I'll definitely try again tomorrow.
