Developer unlock as a student - Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I registered as student through dreamspark. Submitted a useless app to unlock my phone.
GeoTrust verified my identity and I got an email from Microsoft that account has been activated. Application is still being tested by microsoft. I tried to unlock my phone but without any success.
Those who registered via dreamspark can you please shed some light at what point I can unlock my phone?

try again later
that happened to me but when I tried it worked

Done........

Can I get official dev unlock if WP market isn't officially available in my country and I'm a student?

i would like to know too!

Hard-SPL Unlocker: How do I PAY, AGAIN, so I am NEVER BLOCKED in future after PAYING?

I thank the programmers for their work on the Hard-SPL Unlocker and they deserve to be compensated for it.
But, these are the issues I have with the unlocker and the programmers themselves:
#1. I already PAID for license for my PERSONAL use for ONLY my PERSONAL TP2.
#2. I'm still being blocked from running the unlocker
#3. My service "ticket" with PROOF OF MY PAYMENT filed on the programmer’s ticket system, private messages, and e-mails are all being completely ignored since 3/29/2010
Sooo,
What are ALL the details on the process that I have to undertake to PAY them AGAIN to get a version of the unlocker that will allow me to unlock my PERSONAL TP2 for my PERSONAL use that can NEVER be blocked again ???
Thank you for any help that can be provided.
Here is a copy of the license information they post on their site.
I have highlighted/underlined every issue that is NOT being honored:
Licensing information:
it's like with previous Hard-SPL unlockers - every user gets one free use of the Hard-SPL,
further use is subject to paying 3GBP per each device.
however, if you are a private user, you can have other uses free on request if needed, such as using it on a replacement device.
the license is valid forever and all this works as transparently as possible, so for normal users nothing is noticeable; while businesses who need to unlock more devices than that, can use the link inside the program to send payment or contact cmonex or Olipro if you want to discuss bulk unlocking.
contact info is: via support link
Again, I thank the programmers for their work and they deserve to be compensated for it.
You guys have done great work.
You've earned my money.
But, my money deserves service and a response.
Please get me working and provide a solution so this doesn't happen again.
Thank you.
I'd like to make a public request to change the system currently in place.
In exchange for our payments, can we get a downloadable program that works without future issues ????
This way, we don't have to rely on the programmers to maintain their website and communication.
They are many reports that the programmners are not maintaining either, and that's fine......
as long as those that paid can get access now to a downloadable solution that will work independtly without web access with no future issues.
I bought the SIM unlocker last year when it was released. I had it on my laptop and some how I managed to screw up my hard drive. I put in a ticket because I wanted to re down load the program in case I ever need to relock my phone to have it serviced. I received 1 reply asking for my IMIE, that was like back in dec/jan. I'm glad that my phone has not bit the dust but I'm still up set at the unloker team's under handed business practices.
i wait two weeks for them answer in my ticked --silence.
pay yes --support no.
it sounds like you guys have to re-submit your problems, olipro said the system was down and they had to start over http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=6571077&postcount=153.
I think olipro will get it worked out. I also tried to redownload the unlocker but unfortunately once you download for the first time you can no longer download yours again. I suggest that maybe olipro keep that link active for max 3 downloads. He has done great work though.

[Q] Developer account & marketplace questions

I live in a country that currently has no marketplace support.
I have registered a Live account for the UK so that I can at least download free apps to my Phone.
I would like to register for a development ($99) account so that I can unlock my phone for development.
1) Any tips for a successful registration are welcome.
Microsoft announced that marketplace support for my country will become available somewhere this year.
2) Will I be able to 'transfer' my developer account / change my Live account so that it will be valid for my country's marketplace or will that require me to pay another $99 to Microsoft for a new developer account?
I read that multiple Live accounts can be registered on a WP7 phone.
3) Is it a good idea to create 2 different Live accounts: 1 for normal/personal use (email, calendar etc.) and 1 specially for a development account?
4) Would it be preferable to register the developer acount as the second (not the primary) account on the phone?
5) Is it possible to create a developer account for a country that currently has no marketplace support, register it on the phone as secondary live account, and register a primary Live account for a country that does have marketplace support (e.g. UK)?
(I wish Microsoft would not have made it so difficult to start developing for WP7 for people in countries that don't have marketplace support yet.)

GeoTrust are so rude in dealing with registration for the app hub.
I am a student in country X and I provided them with my passport from the original country Y, and my driver's licence from the original country Y and a receipt for an ID from the country X where I study.
... and they didn't approve my application. They claim that I have to provide the residence ID from the country where I study (which I don't have right now, but the receipt is the one used whenever the ID is required!)
Voila, I beleive your case is impossible compared with what I've been through
I'm really surprised by the total lack of helpful contributions in this thread.
A little help and/or pointers would be appreciated.

I would also like to have a marketplace developer account. My university is in the msdnaa (dreamspark?) program but as I am in latin america they will probably take 2-3 more years to bring the service here. (Xbox live arrived last november).
The only way that I can imagine to get your applications submitted, is to get a "front man" in one of the available countries.
Me too. I'm a MVP and would like to have developer account. But I can't.

You will not be able to register on AppHub unless you actually live in a country where marketplace payouts are available. The key word here is payouts as there are a few countries with no marketplace access for purchases but where you can still register as a developer. Have a look at "Regional Information" towards the bottom of this page.

This is a moot point as you are unable to register using a, e.g. UK account unless you live there - and can prove it. In short; unless you can provide GeoTrust with proof of identity and address in the country you've told them, you will not be verified and not get access to your account.

That depends. If you have the opportunity to create a new Live ID using your business email that would likely be preferrable as customers can contact you directly thru your Publisher name. It really makes no difference to the way the accounts work on the phone though.

Yes. You would want the primary account to be your "personal" account as that's where it will upload photos, pull OneNote books and sync contacts/calendars from by default.

Yes. Although see above for caveats. This is the only way to get Marketplace access though, so unless you can live with "free" apps only or know mktplace is being rolled out in your country within the next few weeks or months - it's what you have to do.
Also of note is that your AppHub account does not have to reside on your phone at all. You can leave it on the desktop only and still unlock your device for development using the provided tools.
Finally, if your country has neither purchase or payout access to the marketplace the only other option is to use something like Yalla Apps or a friend from an approved country as a front man. I've done this for a few people already so if that's something of interest PM me.
^ Very helpful info. Thanks emigrating!
Sent from my HD7 T9292 using Board Express
ok, I don't know how helpfull this info is but, once you have a developer account you can unlock multiple devices then use one of the many registry hacks out there to prevent your phone from relocking, even post-nodo, then after the hack is applied you can remove the phone from the developer account and unlock a different one. So if you can your best bet would be find a friend whome you trust with an account and let them unlock your phone for you, or someone at your school, maybe you could even pay them a small handling fee.

Can a Student be locked?

Hello Guys,
i'm student so its possible for me to unlock the phone without Chevron etc.
by entering Zipcode, Adress and so on.
My question now is, if Microsoft has somehow "access" to my installed apps, because i have to install them via Desktop Marketplace (No Marketplace Country)
so im worried if they will lock my account or so?
Thanks for help
There are no "student phones" or else, so all phones can work the same way. Chevron and sideload will not harm any of your accounts (what accounts do you mean, anyway).
Homebrew is not forbidden, aside from things which are illegal anyhow (pirated apps, for example). Why are you worried about your account being locked?
because than my student dev account would be locked --> Handy as well and i don't want the Chevron Solution becaus of further updates
just go to dreamspark and then follow the process to the create.msdn site and submit a blank app.
You will be able to unlock 3 phones for free through their means.
don't use chevron
heres the URL
As far as i know will a student be able to unlock only 1 phone.
Students can definetly unlock 3 phones. I have a student account and have unlock 3
He is asking if his dev account that he got with dreamspark can be locked because he is using pirated apps because his country doesn't support or allow him to purchase apps so the only way he can get them is to pirate them, so now he is scared that microsoft will see that he has pirated games/apps and will lock or close his dev account
To answer your question (if that is what you are asking )I dont know

App hub(dev-unlock)

hey guys i have heard that apphub can register 3 devices in one account...so i was thinking that if we connect a user who have an apphub account with a user who dose not have...by using internet ..so that other users can also register their devices....
Guys please tell me if this is possible????
It would be a gr8 help to many users...especially to omnia w users...
In order to register a device to get it unlocked, it must be physically present at the account owner's computer. It has to be connected via USB to the computer, and a program at the computer is run to register it.
So I suppose, if people are trusting enough to send their phones to others, then its possible. Otherwise, not gonna work.
so i guess its a yes....but if we connect the pcs via a software which would even help us to share proxy ports,usb ports,etc we may able to do it without the risk...
Guys plz need your support...
Well, you're not going to be able to do it *without* risk; I don't know of any program that would allow that level of remote connection without exposing one computer or the other to attack. The level of risk may be acceptable, though.
Side note: not everybody has unlocks to spare; some of us have multiple phones or have family / friends who needed unlocked too. That said, if there's a way to do it right, the idea certainly has merit!

... but not on XDA, my friend
I really dont know now if this is true but when i was googling i got the information that u can also remove the device if dont want it......so after u have registered the device u can simply remove the user....
plz correct me if m wrong!!!
That's right. But what is your point? No one will give you his Live account credentials. Also, this is a hoax, prohibited by Microsoft agreement. By the way, if you already ready to cheat - just open fake student's account and get your unlock for free (but I don't want to discuss it).
well i tried almost all the things on google and xda but none of it is working.....
anyways so i guess its a bit sad news to most of the omnia w users....
@sensboston, you misunderstood. The suggestion was for a way to remotely connect a Windows Phone to the computer of somebody who had an AppHub account. For example, if you could forward your device's USB connection to my PC via the Internet, I could then launch the Windows Phone Developer Registration tool on my PC, enter my credentials, and unlock your device (well, aside from running into the limit, that is).
I don't know of any such software that doesn't also give one ocmputer or the other way more access than I'd recomment allowing a stranger to have, but it does not (in theory) require handing one's credentials to anybody else. It may be against the ToS of AppHub, but then, you can believe that ChevronWP7 Unlocker was against somebody or other's ToS as well, and that didn't stop people. I routinely decompile apps, even though that's forbidden by mose EULAs. You get the point. We're not talking piracy here...
May be but I think OP is looking for free handset unlock, not for USB forwarding

[Q] doulci icloud bypass

Anyone here familiar with Team Doulci and there program that allows you to bypass the icloud activation that comes up when you rest an iPhone.
Bought a 5C from some. Its not black listed and before restoring it was working with my att simcard perfectly. But dude doesn't know the password to the icloud account currently associated to the device. And now that I restored it I am stuck at the activation screen asking for the password. So now I can't use the phone at all. Thus I was hoping this bypass is legit.
icloud bypass is possible only through doulci activator and its activation key for the doulci server, if you like to have then visit https://bypassicloudlockscreen.wordpress.com for more information about how to use doulci icloud bypass
Only the original owner can unlock it, by themselves or bringing it to the Apple store. It is simply an anti-theft feature.
Any other company or website that says they can unlock an iCloud lock is a scam, just like the websites that say they can change your IMEI.
Let me know if it actually works
Thanks for the information on icloud bypass method . Keep it up
This is BS Dont download anything from this link all spam crap

Doulci tool was used during bypass process but i don't know whether you can bypass icloud activation now
There is no such thing called doulCi tool or iCloud unlock tool. the hack was a security exploit developed in 2014 and got patched a month later, it was a MITM Attack by mimic Apple Albert server and bypass iCloud activation, Not fully activating the devices, (bypassed device was not able to do GSM or DATA communication stuff ).
Later a new method to bypass apples new security check added after the first exploit, was developed again by the help of a physical device to achieve the same goal and get a valid signature of the modified data, the technicals are in http://merruk.com
After this there is no other new method to bypass iCloud except for those illegal phishing ways that no one should use.
In 2016 the same old doulCi method was still working with really only two characters was needed to be changed in original code, but this time! this had a real iCloud unlock not only a bypass, it was working from the beginning but no one payed attention to it. when got discovered apples patched it within three weeks or so.
Conclusion: there where no tool or application released by me or by anyone that does iCloud bypass or unlock. the only way was published, is the MAGIC LINE method from the year 2014 and the technicals about the kitchen method, anything else found on the web is fraud.
Best.
