What was your Firmware and Bootloader before update to 7740.16?

You did receive both HTC and MS upadates?

What is your Firmware and Bootloader after update to 7740.16?

You should update BaseROM.provxml and TargetROM.provxml 1st

Then apply [DoNotU2hTC] before dev [Unlock / eXit]

Because you may do not read carefully the instructions

Regards, ansar
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] ansar.ath.gr:
Check your connection, how others do?

And there are hundreds of DLs each day

[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] ansar.ath.gr:
Hi,

Then change BaseROM properly

Regards, ansar
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] ansar.ath.gr:
Hi,

There is no original ROM of firmware version 2250.09.16901.206

Also from Bootloader version: 1.69.2250.0(117833)

It is (may be) a debranded O2 with a 1.69.206.01 ROM

Or an original 1.69.401.01 manually changed (but spalsh mologo.bmp an O2??)

You should flash an original O2 ROM (206), see branded ROMs for HD7

If you like to try with the ROM you now have then

-- in ansarUC page tap on ROMversion and follow provxml steps

-- in system page

--.. tap on DoNotU2hTC and follow provxml steps

--.. tap on dev Unlock / eXit

Now see if you receive the update

Let me know before updating

Regards, ansar

Hi Ansar,

No dice buddy, i have checked the information i stated and all is as appears on the about screen (no discrepencies at all) oh and yes i have had the O2 splash screen since purchase even after all of the provisioned updates in the previous Ansar guide. I have followed your instructions, unsure what ROM Version did and where you say tap DoNothTC, i only have DoNotU2hTC. (hope this is what you were referring to) i tapped this and exited how instructed but still it does not provision the update for me.

Thanks,

Creamy
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] Dinchy87:
i flashed it with updateutility.exe
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] creamy:
Hi Ansar,

Maybe this will help

Creamy
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] GoodDayToDie:
Question: If you want to use your own (non-custom) ROM (for example, because you don't want to lose all your data), doesn't the phone need to be interop-unlocked? Dev-unlock, through ChevronWP7 or otherwise, doesn't allow installing apps with ID_CAP_INTEROPSERVICES anymore (unless you're still pre-Mango).

You may want to mention that part. :-)
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] ansar.ath.gr:
Hi,

As stated in my #238 post "It is (may be) a debranded O2" and now It is a debranded O2

That means your device is an O2 operator flashed with a 1.69.206.01 ROM

Allthough not tested for these type of ROMs, also stated in my post

"If you like to try with the ROM you now have then

-- in ansarUC page tap on ROMversion and follow provxml steps

-- in system page

--.. tap on DoNotU2hTC and follow provxml steps

--.. tap on dev Unlock / eXit

Now see if you receive the update

Let me know before updating"

But from your above quote you did not perfom this step

-- tap on ROMversion CTRL box, in ansarUC page, and follow provxml steps

So repeat all above steps and let me know

Regards, ansar
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] kirk999:
hi Ansar

everything you said, i did

1. For BaseROM.provxml you (should) use

.. 1.22.162.000 for ROM version and

.. 2250.21.122000.162

2. For TargetROM.provxml can use

-- 5.10.162.06 for ROM version and

-- 2250.21.51006.162

And after tap on DoNotU2hTC

my phone said fir the first run: the carrier doesn exist in database

after second run i tapped again on DoNotU2hTC

it began to work

then apply custclear and tapped dev unlock\exit

then connected to zune

but no 7740 update via zune

my phone still up to date with 7720 :(
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] Cabrini:
Hello. I have updated me Trophy from Mango 7720 with chevrom and with U2M7740 to Mango 7740.16 and it has been updated correctly, but the update of HTC that comes later not, Zune gives me error 8018004D. What must I do in this case?

Thank you in advance and greetings.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] ansar.ath.gr:
Hi,

You do not have an O2, it is an original Europe operator (401)

If you cannot install now U2M7740.xap you must reflash

RUU_Gold_HTC_Europe_1.22.401.01_Radio_5.63.09.13_3a_22.36.50.15U_by_ansar

If you can install U2M7740.xap it means your device is dev unlocked

Let me know your status in order to see how you must proceed

Regards, ansar
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] ansar.ath.gr:
Hi,

All that are in 7720 state have used U2M7720.xap in order to update

So they are interop-unlocked and that's why can load and run U2M7740.xap

Regards, ansar
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] ansar.ath.gr:
Hi,

In my last post stated to properly update BaseROM.provxml

But you did keep the 3 zeroes instead of 2, so fix it with 2

Also before connection to zune, soft reset the phone

in order to ensure zune update recognition

I hope your 5.0.xxxx bootloader will not be a pro

Regards, ansar
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] ansar.ath.gr:
Hi,

This is a protection cause after direct hTC OEM update your phone may

-- loose dev unlock

-- receive version 5.xx bootloader

Did bootloader changed or not?

Did you use U2hTC CTRL box?

Can you provide

ROM version, Firmware version and bootloader version

before and after update to 7740.16?

Regards, ansar
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] kirk999:
sorry sorry sorry Ansar

i've made mistake

my firmware is 2250.21.51006.162

so

for BaseROM.provxml I should use

.. 1.22.162.000 for ROM version and

.. 2250.21.51006.162!!!!!!!!!!

For TargetROM.provxml I should use

-- 5.10.162.06 for ROM version and

--

2250.21.51006.162

????????

again 2250.21.51006.162?????

in that case also no 7740 via zune.....

thanks in advance

Thanks for you attention, greetings.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] ansar.ath.gr:
Hi,

Do not change them

Make a soft reset and check again

If you do not receive the update then it is due to bootloader

Regards, ansar
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] ansar.ath.gr:
Hi,

You did a DoNotU2hTC right?

But is your device really a Europe operator with CID 401?

The bootloader vesrion 4.6.22500 shows that phone have updated to Mango 7.10.7740.16

Do you have internet sharing now?

Regards, ansar
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] Cabrini:
Hello, I have not used yet DoNotU2hTC, (I will do it tomorrow, I am in Spain and it is a little late...). I have no Internet sharing. With this one I have already updated two times to Mango 7740.16, the previous time with U2M7720 and they brought in the two (Windows Phone and HTC) with Internet sharing and bootloader 5. The XXth.

You agradezo you interest in this matter, greetings.

[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] GoodDayToDie:
@killerkhatiby009: If you aren't already interop-unlocked, you can't even install this app. You also aren't going to be able to install the custom ROM; it's for a GSM phone. You'll have to wait for an interop-unlock hack for the Arrive, or a version of RSPL/HSPL that can be used on CDMA phones (and then for somebody to cook up a custom update CAB or full custom ROM for the Arrive).

---------- Post added at 06:30 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:25 PM ----------

@ansar: Thanks, I get what you're saying about U2M7720 already interop-unlocking its users, but some (many) people got Mango without using U2M7720, and some of them may want to use this app to get 7740 without the harmful HTC updates. For those people: yes, you need to be interop-unlocked to use this app (fortunately, it's pretty easy without those lock-down "updates", so long as you can install non-interop apps and run Connection Setup).

I just thought it odd that you mentioned Chevron unlock (which doesn't set interop-unlock, either the original ChevronWP7 Unlocker hack or the new ChevronWP7 Labs; both set MaxUnsignedApp to 10) as a pre-requisite, when it's not actually sufficient by itself (or required; my phone is dev-unlocked using my AppHub account, then I used Connection Setup to interop-unlock it - I never used any Chevron tool).
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] Dinchy87:
yes my device is dev.unlocked and i can deploy u2m7740.xap. i can open the app but no update and i have followed all steps.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] renekovac:
Was kann machen.nach dem Update ist nicht unlocked das Rom.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] ansar.ath.gr:
Hi,

With U2M7740 can get updates

- Only MS Mango 7740.16 with DoNotU2hTC

- hTC update with U2hTC

- Hold MS Mango 7740 update with DoNotU2M7740

- Enable MS Mango 7740 update with U2M7740

A guide for handling userUC page of U2M7740 will be released soon

although many of you may already know how to use it

for customization of mologo.bmp, themes, ringotones etc

[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] ansar.ath.gr:
Hi,

dev unloc /eXit CTRL box followed by a Connection Setup afterwards is an interop unlock

[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] hoaisonongame:
Hi ansar,

I was using your custom ROM: "[Mango 7720 ROM]HD7_TMOUS_4.05.531.04_Radio_5.69.09.29a_22.50.50.21U by ansar"

Then I updated HCT update and got 5.10 bootloader and lost jailbreak.

So I restored by Zune to 7720 Tmous and made a hard reset, it's all working fine until now but due to updating 5.10 bootloader I can't flash any ROM.

Now Zune always pop-up the HTC update and I must ignore it.

So how could the U2M7740 Xap get me to 7740? I follow ur guide at first post and there is no go for me. :(
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] ansar.ath.gr:
Hi,

Is 7.10.7720.68 2250.21.40601.401.by.ansar after using U2M7740.xap?

What was your Firmware and ROM version before using U2M7740.xap?

If you want to cancel zune update

Ansar need your help buddy.

Hello Ansar,

Can you please help. I initially used U@m7720to get to the Mango 7720, and not wanted to go to Mango 7740 and for this I tried updating the BaseRom.provxml and TargetRom.provxml files and deployed the U2M7740, but not getting any updates in Zune.

Details of my Phone are as Below are as Below:

OS Version: 7.10.7720.68

Firmware Revision Number: 2250.09.51004.401

Hardware Revision Number: 0002

Radio Software Version: 5.54.09.21_22.33b.50.10U

Radio Hardware Version: A.102.0.D4

Bootloader Version: 1.69.2250.0(117833)

When i click DoNotU2htc, it gives me a error of carrier not found, but if i try again it do the stuff.

Then i click devUnLock / Exit and try to update but Zune does not find any update.

Can you please help me what should i write in BaseRom.provxml and TargetRom.provxml to get the update. Sorry if i am asking a totaly stupid question, but really want to get the 7740 update, with unlock.

Thanks in Advance
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] Cabrini:
Hello. I have used U2hTC and then dev unlock, have tuned in to Zune and it has started updating but after the step 8 (Doing safety copy) has stopped and has given me error again 8018004D. I have not found anything on this error for the forums, not

from that it can stem, when I updated to Mango 7740.16 the first time with U2M7720 this did not happen, they brought in well two updates (MS and HTC).

Thank you and greetings.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] creamy:
Hi Ansar,

I did follow your instructions but just to be sure i have done everything you said i have tried again just now, when i ran ROM Version in ansarUC i got an error message stating that the carrier is not supported so i ran it again, this time it did take so i ran DoNotU2hTC and then hit the dev unlock/ exit. I then fired up Zune and checked for update.....still phone is upto date 7720 message.

I assure you i am following your instructions to the letter but cannot get the update.

No matter though, it not a massive thing for me. i just wanted to be upto date is all.

Thanks for you time and help Ansar, it is appreciated.

Most probably debranded devices cannot update but i will try it my self too

So wait for my results

If you cannot wait start from a custom NoDo O2 or a custom 7720 O2 with HSPL

In the state you are now try to soft reset an check for update

Now that you are in 7720 and dev locked there is no way

But the HTC Arrive does not support HTC Connection Setup since it is fully CDMA and has no GSM or SIM slot, so if this uses Connection Setup to interop-unlock then it probably won't work unless something was modified to make it work with the arrive.

[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] ansar.ath.gr:
Hi,

I did repeat the process for HD7 and 1.69.401.01 custom ROM

- dev unlock \ eXit --> received Mango ISV 7403

- added languages

- DoNotU2hTC

- dev unlock \ eXit

Here received the two updates in a serial manner

1st update was 7.10.7720.68 and

2nd update was final 7.10.7740.16

I do not proceed to U2hTC due to that the update

- changes bootloader to 4.05 and

- does not update the OEM part, gives an update error

May be Gold 7 pro does not roll it out yet the 7740.16

I will update U2M7740.xap in order from

- DoNotU2M7740 CTRL box

the update of Mango 7740.16 to be installed direclty by U2M7740.xap

By the way did you check (if have flashed it) or can you check (by flashing it)

RUU_Gold_HTC_Europe_3.02.401.02_Radio_5.69.09.29a_22.50.50.21U_Mango_7720_custom_by_ansar

Thx for the help. A have not started from 7392. My rom provided by you was from 7004. Unlocked it - deployed u2m7740.xap - opened it - closed again - updated to 7008 - then run connection setup to prevert lock - open u2m7740 tab on donotu2b2 - conection setup - devunlock/exit - update to 7392. Then connection setup again to prevert lock. Opened u2m7740 - tab on u2b2 - devunlock/exit - update to isv beta 7403 - after update conection setup... Then run u2m7740 - donotu2htc - connection setup - devunlock/exit - update to "mango" beta (so named in zune) 7.10.7720.68 (no htc named update, thats good) then connestion setup after update. Then i run u2m7740 - devunlock/exit but no update... The firmwarerevision changed like it should all is like it should but no update. I stated that when i soft reset now the device to 7720 i have from startup the update to 7740. but no unlock... The unlock blocks the update to 7740.

is there a way that i use a mango 7720 custom htc europe rom on this htc 7 pro device and which one?
