Hi there,

It hurt me so BAD that people still have issues with this. Well, I will flash my phone back and do ALL the step again to see if something has change since the last time and see what I will come up with. Read at my SIGNATURE than u know why I feel SO BAD.

I am so sorry that some of u guys still can't archive this while some others can.

Hope I Have Been Of Help. PEACE!!!

EDITTED:::

Hi ALL!!!

So far so good, I just updated to the Mango ISV Beta with no issue whatsoever. Now about to Update to the HTC ADDITIONAL UPDATE.

If it may help, I flashed back to this RUU_Schubert_HTC_Europe_1.60.401.01_Radio_5.52.09.16_22.33a.50.10_Signed_SCHUBERT_RELEASE. This ROM comes with HTC Connection Setup v1.2.

I start from there, the above ROM is 7.0.7004.0. After flashing that I did the Chevron Unlock and the Prevention Unlock, then the update to 7.0.7392.0 with Zune After that, continue with the guide or step on this thread.

Hope I Have Been Of Help. PEACE!!!

EDITTED:::

I just updated the HTC ADDITIONAL UPDATE and it went smoothly, no error with Connection Setup, can still sideload, Bootloader is now 4.5.22500.0, Radio is now 5.59.09.29a_22.50.50.21U, OS version is now 7.10.7720.68, Firmware is now 2250.21.40502.401.

That's it, have been flashing my phone to and fro and everything works fine. I don't know how else to be of help. I do know I won't be flashing my phone again to try this thread again cause it does work and have flashed my phone several times, and still no Connection Error or Phone Locking.

If it didn't work for u then I am so sorry it didn't.

Hope I Have Been Of Help. PEACE!!!
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] cv2k3:
Just a thought

I know it sounds silly, but since it is mentioned that 7720 takes a long time to update, you need to make sure you don't walk away once it starts the process because HTC Update comes right after the final Mango and Zune will NOT pause for user input in between. It is almost confirmed that Connection Setup will lose its ability (either by design or simply stripped of the access) to load the provisional file AFTER the HTC (Firmware/Driver) Update so it will continue to fail.

Just a thought as the first time I ran the official update, I did walk away and come back to a locked phone and Connection Setup would not work. Good thing I not only have NoDo backup, but 7712 and 7720 RTM (without HTC Update) backups.

On a side note, I modified the ISVTo7720.bat to /enablebackup. That way you can actually run backup anytime: It will update to 7720 if you still have 7712; Otherwise, it'll throw you an error saying the update package isn't valid/available or something but only after creating the backup. Works even for 7720+HTC Update. Not the most ideal, but if you don't want the hassle of running extra programs/instructions. Works with the latest Zune+UpdateWP (2345).

Thanks for your efforts petbede.

I have to assume that I probably need to HSPL and flash the HTC_Europe_1.60.401.01 instead of my stock Asia_WWE_1.23.707 ROM. Might it also be related to the Connection Setup 1.2 you used here, while I used your 1.10. who knows?

Also, which Prevention Unlock method did you use. I am seeing that I have a file, which I think I had used before called "Prevent Relock.xap".

I assume that I can reflash a 707 Stock ROM to downgrade?

Hi,

I used flashed back to this ROM RUU_Schubert_hTC_Asia_WWE_1.23.707.01_Radio_5.51.09.06a_22.30.50.09_Signed_SCHUBERT_RELEASE after having so much problems with updating. I had to flash SPL first since on 7720 SPL became 4.5. So I had to go back to 1.23 so I can HSPL. Then Stock Connection Setup on the above ROM was v1.0 and it worked perfectly. Just follow petbede's instruction carefully. I even had to force update to get to NoDo. But it was worth it. :)

It's good to hear this for an Asia_WWE ROM.

According to the ROM specifications in your signature, you don't appear to have received the HTC Update. Your signature shows:

HTC HD7(Unbranded)

OS Version: 7.10.7720.68

Radio: 5.54.09.21_22.33b.50.10U

Bootloader Version: 1.69.2250.0(117833)

This is the same as my Asia_WWE, which has not received the HTC Update. Are these your current specifications after recent successful flash?

I flashed back to RUU_Schubert_hTC_Asia_WWE_1.57.707.02_Radio_5.52.09.16_22.33a.50.10_Signed_SCHUBERT_RELEASE Original tonight but I could not get the phone Chevron unlocked. At first Chevron ran but did not lock the phone. Later it simply would not run, throwing a message that it could not connect to the phone.

I might well have a bigger problem that is causing this and results in my phone becoming locked at 7722.

Thank you in advance.

But, some guys have said they will workout a way to get me a SAMSUNG to add it to my research list. Until then, if it ever will. I am so sadly sorry to say I don't know how u can go round it.

Pretty impressive guide. I was on nodo and updated, followed all the steps you said word by word. I got to 7.0.45 or whatever it was, my fone was still unlocked.

ran conn setup, ub tool, etc as you said then upgraded to isv beta.

however I was unable to run connection setup as fone is now locked. I never got any errors anywhere.

I am going to try restore then install the version of connection setup you have uploaded. I am not sure what version I have since I put it there long time back but hoping this makes the difference.

Thanks so far though
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] petbede:
Hi there & Hi All,

I have been putting one and two together to get it working for those that can't, including those have Connection Setup issue. The method is to flash the phone with RSPL and flash the ROM I used. I think and see t to be a best bet cause I have flash it so many times and each time it ran smoothly with no error of any but a highly SUCCESS of MANGO and the HTC UPDATE and still remain UNLOCK.

Hope I Have Been Of Help. PEACE!!!
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] sylar30:
I see

I have the stock rom. I was hoping to do upgrade without flashing.

I did installed v1.10 Connection Mgr but alas, it make's no difference.

So I guess I need to looking at flashing a custom rom.

Hope I Have Been Of Help. PEACE!!!
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] petbede:
Hi ALL,

I FINALLY find a way that will work to get MANGO without ANY ISSUE.

Here is a method that sure will work if done correctly. It is for those having issue with CONNECTION SETUP and those that having ANY OTHER ISSUES.

WHAT IS NEEDED:::

DFT_XSPL_WP7FG2.rar > http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1195647

RUU_Schubert_HTC_Europe_1.60.401.01_Radio_5.52.09. 16_22.33a.50.10_Signed_SCHUBERT_RELEASE > http://www.multiupload.com/G4DUP2YAJ4

Now be sure your bootloader is BELOW and NOT 4.5 and 5 (VERY IMPORTANT)

Put your phone in BOOTLOADER MODE and connect it to the PC or LAPTOP Be sure it is showing USB and not SERIAL

If YES then Extract DFT_XSPL_WP&FG2 with 7-Zip or any other File Extractor

Install only the one that is DFT_RSPL_WP7FG2_LAUNCH to your phone

After that FLASH/Install this to your phone RUU_Schubert_HTC_Europe_1.60.401.01_Radio_5.52.09. 16_22.33a.50.10_Signed_SCHUBERT_RELEASE

After that, Chevron your phone and also PREVENT your phone from UNLOCKING.

Once done, then use ZUNE to UPGRADE to NoDo.

After that go back to this thread which u are in now http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1287505 and follow the guide or step.

PEACE!!!

FOR THOSE THAT HAVE BOOTLOADER 4.5 or 5 in your bootloader then u need to flash your phone with a STOCK ROM for your phone and come back here when sorted it out.

Hi petbede - can I assume this ROM is not for CDMA versions of HTC? I believe they use a completely different radio and the original ROM was NoDo (there never was pre-nodo for CDMA).

Hi there,

CORRECTION!!! I said APPDATA not APPCHECK.

By the way it is AUTO DATA CONFIG.

I am running Advanced Config v1.4.0.0 Mango!!!

Goto SETTINGS > ADVANCED CONFIG > TWEAKS > AUTO DATA CONFIG.

Try it when CHECK and UNCHECK be sure to RESTART for each, u can as well Tick very other except DON'T DEHYDRATE APPS ON PAUSE, u can if u want to but I DON'T.

Hi there,

U can click Chevron Unlock for as many times as possible. Did u also run Connection Setup.

I have two guide, there is no way it won't work. If it didn't work then u are doing something wrong. Just follow the step or guide as it is and u be fine.

Hope I Have Been Of Help. PEACE!!!
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] :
hmmm definately still does it i read else where someone had the same problem after the htc update but that was because they had advance config installed i had nothing installed.when connection manager pops up i normally press the back hardware button to make it disappear if i press the cross or tick will it affect anything? thinking just incase it restarts in pocket dont want it relock or clear prov file.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] petbede:
Hi there,

It won't affect anything if u install the Connection Setup each time u restart.

Just be sure that if any update comes up in future, be sure to run Chevron Unlock before u UPDATE and then run Connection Setup after UPDATE.

@petbede:

Thanks for the steps to get interop-unlock on Mango. However, I have a couple questions if you don't mind - just things I want to understand.

1) What is DFT_RSPL_WP7FG2_LAUNCH and why do you install it before flashing the ROM? Flashing the ROM should wipe out any change you made prior to that, unless there's something I'm not aware of.

2) The HTC update that comes with Mango appears to break the use of Connection Setup to unlock the phone. Yet your instructions still say to use Connection Setup for unlocking, even for people who already have the HTC update. How did you make this work?

Thanks!!
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] petbede:
Hi there,

Glad I Could Be Of Help.

I don't mind, that's why I am here. Read my SIGNATURE for more INFO on that.

Question 1 Answer:::

SPL is Secondary Program Loader. It allows to flash ROMs to device. Without working SPL device is fully bricked, you can’t restore it. It’s why all operations with SPL are dangerous.

OSPL is Original SPL. This SPL comes with stock ROM and doesn’t allow to flash custom stuffs.

RSPL is Reloaded SPL. It load only to RAM, so it doesn’t persistent. It’s enough to soft reset device to get OSPL back.

HSPL is Hard SPL. It’s permanently flashed to internal device memory and replaces OSPL. After soft reset you still have HSPL instead of OSPL.

WARNING TO ALL:

Do NOT use RSPL / HSPL with Mozart 4.XX and 5.XX and other RUU ROMS with MANGO.

All WP7F devices affected: MOZART, GOLD, SCHUBERT, MONDRIAN, SPARK!

It will damage your device. Not a joke.

Question 2 Answer:::

Have come to understand that some ROM will end up having issues with Connection Setup. I have the very same ROM that I use several times to FLASH and end up with NO error or issue, have given the name out. Here is the link http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=18092085&postcount=5

When the Arc first came out I got one and to be honest, hated it. Too slow, FC's galore and lots of other random problems. I bought a Galaxy s2 and apart from it's ugliness, been pretty happy.

Now the new Arc S has a faster processor and FF camera so I'm thinking about going for one of them. Has anyone else made a similar move? What's your opinions on the S model in general over the standard arc?
