Apparently I need the PUC or PIN unlock code. I just want to unlock my device so I can sideload Advanced Configuration app to change my theme colors
Any ideas?
Good question. Being new to WP7 I would like to do more with my new device like I could with my previous Android phones.
First of, what you are calling "unlock" is developer unlock as oppose to a carrier unlock.
You can achieve developer unlock by 1) buying a developer account and 2) developer unlock via unofficial means
Unfortunately, "developer unlock via unofficial means" is not available for the CDMA variation of the HTC Trophy because it ship with NoDo which already blocks this method. (I am not aware of any method at this moment).
In the near future, however, Rafael Rivera, Chris Walsh, Long Zheng will launch ChevronWP7 Labs which allow sideloading with permission from Microsoft.

**NOOB ALERT**
This is my first post, however this is following 2 days of scouring the forums and trying about a million things so please bear with me.
First my phone info:
Samsung Focus
AT&T
Rev 1.3
OS: 7.10.7720.68 (Mango)
Developer Unlocked Using Official Chevron Token
I am trying to get any of these 3 XAP's to work: Advance Config. OR Accent Changer OR Custom Theme
(Yes I payed $9 to make my dumb squares grey as opposed to the hipster vomit rainbow on offer)
I realize that my device needs to be Interop-Unlocked for these to function, I followed the directions in the Easy Samsung Method, that bundles the unlock with the 3G repair, I then tried the manual heathcliff method (the long stickied post), i then found (through the focus specific board), the Provxml where you hold down on interop unlock and internet sharing to execute thos XML's.
I think, regardless of method, that I am indeed unlocked as WP7 root tools works just fine, However Advanced Config. launches for about 3-4 seconds and then quits, Custom them shows a clock then immediatly closes, and Accent Changer, spits out 4 error messages in a row then closes.
Has anyone encountered this problem? Is there a way to verify I am interop unlocked?
Whats most frustrating is the image on the accent changer post is on a samsung focus!
I have followed the steps to their most minute detail and am stuck. Other XAP's I've downloaded that don't require interopUnlock are crashing after a launch as well, however screen capture, root tools, wario's jewels, and the sharp snes port work great.
The latest Advanced Configuration tools (1.5) work's. Must be an app to app compatibilty issue.
Interop
I also have a Mango Focus and have successfully ChevronWP7 unlocked and interop unlocked and have been able to install and use the Advanced Configuration Tools 1.5, Registry Editor, Screen Capturer, and many other Xaps. Don't know what your problem could be but wanted you to know it can work.
I am having the same issues... some XAP's work, and the majority don't.

Hey Everyone!
So I have had my HTC Radar for about a week now, and since then I have Dev Unlocked, and now that I am I want to know what all I can do with this phone.
Is there a way to have the tile labels (at the bottom of the tile) removed? Is there a way to add a custom background image on the tiles? Or even change a tile image (ie TweetCaster)?
What exactly does HTC Interop Unlock?
And since I am Dev Unlocked via Microsoft being a student, how many app's am I allowed to side-load? And if I am limited, can I remove that limit?
I hope to hear your answers, and in advance, THANKS!
Student gives you 3. Interopt unlock works for 1st generation windows phones but not 2nd yet (worked on my surround, not on my new titan).
Interopt unlock also changes sideload limit to unlimited. you need this for more then 3 apps and also for some of the more powerful homebrew apps.
You can however download batterystatus from here in the software section. it does not require it. Also you can do the custom folders without even being unlocked. Tile color changes with themes. not much modifying there as the app sets it. There are a few utilities though if interopt unlocked for more customizations.
Hi Guys. I've been wondering around the internet looking at information for unlocking sim locked mobile phones and have come across the same typical information. I was wondering if anyone knows the in's and out's of how the operators lock their phones to thier networks so that at least it can answer a few questions which I have not come about.
Now I know that there are various programs out there for nokias that use your IMEI number to generate codes to unlock your mobile phone, but as I'm not a nokia user and have an old HTC Hero, these I guess would not work.
I have also tired and failed to look for software that does the same for smart phones. Code generators etc...
The only solution I can find is to use a website to input my IMEI number, pay a rediculous ammount of cash to get a code to unlock the phone.
Now, obviously these companies can get hold of the information to generate the code to unlock the phone.
1. Do they get this code from a program they use? And if so... would anyone like to share the name of this program with us???
2. Or is it a case that they gain the codes from the operators who lock them in the first place? And thus there is no way of getting the code to unlock the phone? (with out paying)
3. Are there any programs on the net that can decode these codes that are made for Android phones or universal, or apps made to automatically do this via the android market etc...
4. If not, is there anyone who would be able to make one? I've seen one for the samsung Galaxy s2. But would there be a universal one available or someone willing to write apps for the specific phones if that's the case?
5. I've rooted my phone, would using a different rom unlock the phone? Or is this totally seperate from the rom?
I just find it difficult to believe that with all the rooting, making software run on phones they weren't ment to, app building and stuff you clever people do on this site... why does it seem so difficult to do and make something that unlocks the phone to all networks? Is it actually that hard?
6. I'd like more information on why it is so hard if anyone knows?
Thanks everyone for any information and any help you can give me on this matter?
Regards.
anyone have any info or ideas?
Hello
I have Huawei P Smart 2019 locked to T-mobile. I can use the paid services of course but it's more of a personal challenge to me. I read something about it and it seems that neither rooting the phone nor flashing custom rom doesn't do the trick. So what does? And what technique is used in the professional unlocking software (eg DC unlocker, etc.)?
Hello forks am in need of flashing my Samsung A02s which has got a locked bootloader, I purchased it on installment(pay daily to own for 365days) from one of the service providers here.. Fully paid but won't allow me to flash a new rom because I feel like upgrading it android 11 not only that I have been stuck in a way where I can't enable developer options since build a number won't unlock them even if you tap it for like forever... I contacted my IT admin who is (.............) Uganda and they said they don't allow it even if fully paid for..
But all I need is to use my mobile freely without any limitations and it is the one am using even to text this massage...
The one only message they give is that they don't want anyone tweaking with their software + if I go purchase another product from their company so they can easily track again from my phone......I do need and accept any help given.....for father information on assistance please help me on [email protected]
