Ok. Not working as expected :o

The good news: It still seems to be working on Samsung! But you will need an updated version of the xap. I will post it in a few minutes.

I tried to deploy CustClear.provxml to \Windows. On my device that seemed to work. I thought I had disabled my root-access. But I forgot to disable some of my policies. The result was that I had access to write to \Windows this way, while 'normal' device don't have that.

But I still seem to have write-access to \provxml for Samsung. I double-checked it now.

I will update the opening post.

Sorry to HTC users :(

"FullUnlock" is a prove-of-concept from Cotulla. You can read about it here. FullUnlock is a way to run native executables.

This is slightly different. I called this "Interop Unlock". Interop locking is meant to block native code in a Silverlight app. All your normal apps are Silverlight apps. Many homebrew apps are Silverlight apps that use native code, like WP7 Root Tools. The method described in this thread is to allow Silverlight apps use native code. This is not for native executables.

Read more about the different type of unlock here.

Most custom roms already have this kind of unlock. This is primary meant for devices with Mango shipped on it.

This app does not have the Interop-flag in it. It is meant to allow to deploy other apps with the Interop flag that previously would not install.

Anyway, for now this seems to be working only on Samsungs. So unfortunately no HTC support as yet.

Gosh I wish the Dell Venue Pro had cool stuff, I am almost to the point of giving up hope. Ill never lose my NODO backup just in case :) thanks cliff
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] ryotgz:
Heathcliff, you never cease to amaze me. Great work. One issue though. The Network Profile app doesn't work on my AT&T Focus, when I open it up it says "It cannot be used if in a locked state by mobile operator. If I click OK it won't let me change from AT&T.

But the good news is I was able to install your new root tools now! No rolling back to Nodo needed. I just need a way to fix my 3G without network profile :(

EDIT: I just tried installing the "unofficial" network profile app that works on locked phones, but the app doesn't open. It goes right back to the start screen.

EDIT 2: OK I think I have 3G back. I installed Samsung Tools by lyriquidperfection here, I selected Set 'Run ADC' flag at next boot. I now have my 3G logo back. He included the source for the xap, maybe you could include this with your xap that we can run?

I've always been able to install apps with "ID_CAP_INTEROPSERVICES". However I can never run them as they crash right away. I was really excited when I first heard of this today but now i'm just confused.

ANyone with a HTC device confirm this works ?
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] voluptuary:
Nice! Worked perfectly for me (Samsung Focus) I did have to use Samsung Tools to get my 3G back since I couldn't use the Network thingy but that wasn't a problem since my phone can now sideload interop apps. :)

What Omnia7 ROM have you flashed, so that can get the newest Diagnosis app? I have flashed the newest WP7_Product NoDo Rom (I8700XXKC1_XXKB2) and it comes with Diagnosis ver.0103. Uninstalling and re-entering Diagnosis mode, installs the same old version.

I have the same ROM and the same Diagnosis app version and it works fine. :)

Please Help me...the trick works but i'm not able to get my 3g connection working again...I didn't understand the "samsung network profile" thing in the guide before doing the trick and now i'm without connection...how can I repair it?

So I've managed to get INTEROP-UNLOCK on my HTC HD7 by the steps in the following thread;

Mango and back up jailbreak !!! 100%
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] oelapoel:
But that means going back to NODO :( and lost 3 months worth of data....
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] PsychoAssasin:
So the unlock.xml i put in c:/provxml from new_sms_unlock.xap will only give me regular chevron unlock, but if i use this instead i will get regular and interop? And what is connection setup? is that the gprs manager mentioned for samsung focus by going into daignostic?

Sorry it just seems everyone has a different name for everything and guides reference other guides which may be relevant or not and i cant figure out which steps do what.

What i have right now is a Samsung Focus on 7392 chevron unlocked. I have samsung tools and wp7 root tools installed and ive also put unlock.xml into c:/provxml folder.

What i gather is that i should replace that unlock.xml with the one you posted instead. update to 7403. run daignostic and apply unlock.xml. Then continue to update to 7720, and run daignostic and unlock again. then there is one more update after that? and i do the same?

Thanks for any and all help.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] Heathcliff74:
No. You can now simply upgrade to Mango, open up Diagnosis app (dial ##634#), dial *#9908#, choose unlock, tap save and do step 11 from the opening post to restore 3G. that's it.

[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] Heathcliff74:
Yesterday I did another attempt for Interop Unlock on HTC's.

In the install-package of HTC Connection Setup there was a separate configuration xml. I thought that if I could replace that and simulate the conditions in which it is provisioned, I can exploit it. I was able to replace the xml. I checked the inner workings of the Connection Setup and found that it is specifically used, when provider A1 from Austria was selected and the provision-xml on the device was badly formatted. The provision xml's on HTC-devices are stored in encrypted files in a database-like format. I dumped a HTC Mango ROM and I decoded the xml-files for operator A1. Unfortunately they were all well-formatted. So the separate XML in the Connection Setup will never be used, so it cannot be exploited. :( I think this was a cover-up for a bad xml in the database in an old version of the HTC ROM's.

I will try to find another exploit for HTC's later on. Will keep you posted.

Even going back to nodo and updating, following these steps my Mozart still interloop locks????

Was worth a try need to lose my interloop lock. Just ment had to put all my music/pics back on and re download apps again.

So even this method is not working for me.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] Heathcliff74:
I'm not sure, but I think the last HTC Mango driver update restores your CustClear.provxml. Also, I believe that every update by Zune will automatically check your unlock status online. So, the last update removes your unlock and you won't be able to use CustClear.provxml anymore to unlock.

If that is correct, then you can revert to NoDo and prepare the unlock, then upgrade to Mango, but don't do the HTC update. Then you will be able to unlock with your own CustClear.provxml. But you won't be able to install the latest HTC drivers, because you will loose your unlock and you won't be able to unlock afterwards.

This seems to be a real pain for HTC users. :( I don't have a solution for that yet. Hopefully soon.

This seems to be the case. My sister's phone (on standard update path; no pre-release ROMs for her) re-locked, and can't be unlocked with Connection Setup, on Mango. Very frustrating!
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] Heathcliff74:
What country/mobile operator do you have? Can you select it with the Network profile app?

Using those 5 methods, did you get any error-messages or undocumented behavior?

Have you checked your network settings (is 3G enabled in the settings)?

Edit: Maybe you need to manually add your APN in cellular settings.

[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] :
Hi, heathcliff74

In reply to your post claiming HTC has covered up patches on mango with their new drivers I have a question for you. I don't need a unlock since I'm devolper unlocked just interlop unlock and I am still on mango is it possible or will the new HTC drivers undo this also?

Thanks
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] Heathcliff74:
There is no exploit for HTC to do an Interop Unlock on Mango. You can only do this by reverting to NoDo, prepare for unlock (CustClear.provxml), upgrade to Mango and perform the unlock (both dev-unlock and interop-unlock) using the Connection Setup. But don't do the latest HTC driver setup, because you will loose the unlock and you will not be able to do the unlock anymore. You choose: Interop Unlock or latest HTC drivers :rolleyes:

Thanks Heathcliff, upgraded my omnia 7 and its all working fine (had to force it though) as a side note, I installed the Heathcliff tools on NoDo before upgrading to Mango and it was still there after and I just needed to go into Diagnosis and take it from there. Also I have a different version of Diagnosis, (ver.0628) which works just fine too.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] drkfngthdragnlrd:
I have INTEROP-UNLOCK with those drivers by following the steps in the post I linked a couple pages back. It was just a matter of having CustClear.provxml in \Windows\ in Mango RTM before doing the HTC Update.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] DavidinCT:
Just a question... My Trophy is Dev unlocked. I upgraded from RTM(registry and all Interop apps worked fine) to Mango(Provxml method)and had a full unlock with drivers(the final that came from Zune)... I installed an unmodded TouchXplorer.xap fine it runs but, does not do anything besides open.

I assume I am INTEROP unlocked as I can install these apps fine. They just don't really do anything for the most part. I also installed Advanced Config 1.4, it gives me an error32 when it starts but, if I wait a second, I can still change cusom colors and other stuff.

What do I need to be able to run these apps(TouchXplorer getting file access,etc) and get file folder access and registry access ?

This is exactly what I did, make sure the CustClear.provxml was in the windows folder when running HTC/Zune update.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] Coolshades628:
I don't understand how to "create a new folder in the root directory (/) called provxml." Where is the root folder? I can't find where to create a new folder. Which directory do I create it in? Applications? I've tried creating it where I swipe right into explorer, but diagnosis doesn't see the unlock.xml file in that folder there...
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] drkfngthdragnlrd:
Wait for Schaps to fix his code. registry Editor seems to work fine from what I can tell. ACT tends to crash on me. As you said TouchXplorer shows nothing.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] DavidinCT:
So, can I take it my phone

IS

Interop-unlocked ?

I tried the registry editor, it loads and I can browse some of it but, other stuff will just punt me out (have not tried to write anything yet).

So, do you think it's just his code that is causing TouchXplorer to not show anything or is just the access rights that is changed in Mango ?
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] hx4700 Killer:
Awesome work! I now can use the access point for Internet sharing!
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] drkfngthdragnlrd:
I think MS "fixed" what ever was allowing TX to work. Registry Editor works perfectly for me. Well as well as I can tell as some directories don't display anything so can't tell if the values are truly being written in those. To find out if your are, simply try to re-install any of Schaps apps or any other INTEROP homebrew app. If it installs, you are INTEROP-UNLOCKED. If you get the error, you are not.

Anyone notice Connection Setup has been pulled from the marketplace? It was not working on my HTC VZW Trophy when I upgraded to final from the ISV Beta...said it could not find carrier. As far as I know I still have my CustClear.provxml waiting to be run in the windows folder and hopefully get back unlock/interop-unlock.

As of now it is locked (I had the provxml file there before upgrading but I removed connection setup beforehand as this causes lose of 3G if it was there during upgrade). Reinstalled right after upgrade and did not work. Uninstalled it today and looked for new one and it is not there now.

Anyway, I've written a post about progress on HTC yesterday. Please read the thread.

What error? Message? Error-code? On device or on desktop? Which version of WP7? Which version of Zune? I need more details to help you out.

Now try WP7 Root Tools :D

It should really work. Please read the instructions very thoroughly. It's confirmed that it should work.

You can do follow the guide in the opening post. You can do step 1 to 6 on NoDo, then upgrade to Mango and once you're in Mango, continue with step 7 to 11. That should work.

[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] GoingInside:
Too bad I saw this after doing the HTC Driver update. Now I'm on official Mango with the updated HTC firmware but TouchXplorer is not working (can fire up but nothing is shown). I'm thinking of restoring back to my RTM mango thru Zune and then deploy the HTC driver through Cab sender.

So Is it possible to unlock after restoring? Or do I need to start from 7004 -> Chevron unlock->noDo->Mango? For the Cab Sender, what other setting/apps do I need to apply?

Thanks in advance for your answers.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] drkfngthdragnlrd:
If your back-up is already INTEROP-UNLOCKED, than you can do it right from there. I updated to Mango the official way & had to reset my device to get regular Dev Unlock because the tool wouldn't connect. I ended up restoring to NoDo, my last INTEROP-UNLOCKED back-up & updated to Mango using the steps in the thread a few pages back & updated all the way to the HTC Driver & remained INTEROP-UNLOCKED.

PS: TouchXplorer does not work anymore. It's the app, not the unlock procedure.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] Beberik:
The provisioning trick works on some devices only. I tried it two times and the CustClear.ProvXML has never been deployed in final Mango. I expect the update process deleted / overwritten it.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] flobo09:
After restoring, won't you be unlocked again if you were before ?

@drkfngthdragnlrd : I updated to mango and kept interop unlock via provwml (but still no HTC update available for me). Touchexplorer works just as well as before, just tried copying a random txt in the Windows folder and it's still working.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] drkfngthdragnlrd:
Sounds like you are still on RTM, reboot into the Bootloader & check your SPL version. On my HD7, I had an HTC Update that brought the RTM Beta to the Official 7720.68 & changed my Bootloader version. I had to unlock again & TouchXplorer stopped working. Maybe it's an updated HTC driver causing the problem?
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] GoingInside:
I updated my HTC driver while on RTM mango and used the CustClear.ProvXML to get it unlocked. I believed it is INTEROP-UNLOCKED since I can side-load quite a no. of home-brew apps. But now that TouchXplorer doesn't work anymore, I can't copy CustClear.ProvXML to /windows and can't use the CustClear.ProvXML to unlock it next time.

I was thinking that the CAB sender of HTC driver will not 'close' the provisioning of CustClear.ProvXML (not sure if I use the terms correctly) and TouchXplorer will still be working. It seems that this is not the case.

I guess it is better to stick with what I have now and wait for the experts to come out with solutions :)

[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] GoingInside:
Yes, I believe HTC driver caused TouchXplorer to stop working. I, too, had a HTC driver update from RTM beta to official mango.

I saw in some posts that suggest users not to apply the HTC driver update through Zune. Instead, deploy the driver update through CAB sender, which can be found in the respective device discussion (saw it on my HTC trophy thread).
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] drkfngthdragnlrd:
Should still be able to use Ansar's tool to deploy the CustClear.ProvXML I would think.

Yes, we should, but I'm waiting on the Root Tools with HTC support. One app that does the work of both Registry Editor & TouchXplorer is better than 2 seperate apps. Plus, it has Cert abilities.

I hd 3 too, 7403/7720 RTM Beta/HTC Update.

I had it just show up after pressing DoNotU2B2 button in Ansar's U2M7720 tool.

[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] Heathcliff74:
This probably means that your device is not developer-unlocked. You need an official apphub-account or flash back to version 7.0.7004.0 or 7.0.7008.0 and do a chevronwp7-unlock an follow an appropriate guide to update to Mango and keep your unlock.
