Install the DFT Rainbow Rom or some other fully unlocked rom.

I suggest you follow this guide. It's for Focus but the steps are identical.
I'm astounded that people keep trying to use the original ChevronWP7 Unlocker tool. It hasn't worked since NoDo, about a year ago. To make it work on a gen1 phone, you must install a *very* old ROM. The crazy thing is, this was quite well documented, yet people keep trying...

Thanks for reading this, I apologize if this has been asked already but I've searched and could not find anything. If anyone knows a fix I would very much appreciate to know. I have the Samsung Focus with ATT
I'm stuck with an unbranded phone and cannot receive future updates, and cannot use Chevron7 to dev unlock my phone to re-brand my phone. The only way I've heard of but have not yet confirmed is by purchasing the dev unlocking tools from Microsoft directly. Being as forcing NoDo on my focus prevents me from using chevron7 to unlock the phone so I can re-brand it back to AT&T. That prevents me from being able to get the new ATT nodo update. My question is, if I purchase the dev tools from Microsoft for $99, would I be able to rollback my focus pre-nodo through zune and with ATT being re-branded, could I get that ATT focus nodo update?
Sorry if this is confusing, thanks in advance for any advice.

Any particular reason you cannot rollback your device using the official tool from Microsoft?
I typed a response back and it didn't post... Scrt, what official tool are you talking about? Do you mean the dev unlock tools you can buy for $99? See I forced the update and I'm stuck with an un-branded phone and I can't unlock with Chevron7 and I can't receive future updates like Mango. I can rollback using Zune but since I can't unlock using Chevron7, I cannot re-brand my phone to ATT to get the ATT Focus update.
So I'm asking if anyone knows that if I buy the dev tools from Microsoft for $99 and unlock my phone that way... Would I be able to do that and re-brand to ATT, then download the ATT Focus update?

Well... i don't know about other phone, but HD7's user, have ansar ported the stock 7004 ROM. I flashed back to 7004 and then get official update through Zune. So, i don't need to worry about this.
I had this problem with my Samsung Focus, i had it unbranded and it was updated to the nodo update.
Now i have the at&t firmware update and Nodo update and my phone is still dev unlocked. So happy!!
This is how I did it, First of all, you have to downgrade or restore your focus to 7008 OS.
Then make sure you phone is dev unlocked and download WP7 Root Tools 0.3alpha.xap
once you have downloaded the homebrew app, rebrand your focus by opening up the WP7 Root Tools app, and follow these instructions: Go to REGISTRY
LocalMachine\System\Platform\DeviceTargetingInfo\MobileOperator
and SET String then change VALUE: ATT-US
After that you phone will be rebranded to At&t. You can use the same steps for a rogers branded samsung focus, just replace ATT-US with ROG-CA and you should be good to go. Then make sure you use the Samsung Tools.xap app before you update your phone to NODO. just check the prevent relock section in the samsung tools app and reboot your phone, double check that it is checked and update away. There you guys go, im here to help, I hope this helps most of you.
I want to unlock my VZW HTC Trophy with Mango 7712, however I do not have a NoDo backup. Is there still a way to do this?
Anyone know anything, at all?
I need help too
I have the same phone and from what I can tell all you can do is find a ROM to flash. However, I do not know of anyone having done a CDMA VZW Trophy ROM.
I'm a registered Microsoft Windows Mobile developer, won't they have a cdma version?

If you are a registered dev, you are unlocked; are you asking about getting back to NoDo (original post is for getting Mango unlocked)? And by "they", who do you mean; MS?
yes thats who i meant
you would have to flash back to pre nodo unlock and then pass unlock back to mango

Hi guys,
I have done a manual update from a dev unlocked 7712 fw version to Mango and everything seemed gone fine. Until I have changed international settings I can upload my apps but after that the deployment app says the device is dev locked! I don't if the international settings change is correlated but now I really need to come back to an unlocked developer version but I don't know how to because the PC used to upgrade is no more working (HD crashing). Please help me. Thanks
You can reflash a factory ROM to your phone to downgrade (in the dev & hacking forum) or perhaps a better option would be to update your phone fully and use the new chevron unlock for $9.00 per device forever.
I've tried following the http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1311682 thread twice without success. I've used TMU - T-Mobile United Kingdom from Samsung Omnia 7 Firmware XXJJ6 ALL PROVIDERS and a retail version with any luck. I wasn't able to reply to that thread because I'm a junior member but that method doesn't work! Thanks for your help anyway

You need to NOT have the last firmware update installed on your phone, though.

the firmware update stops it all working, if you used zune there should be a backup made automatically , try rolling back to that.
as for custom roms, I own a focus S, although I don't have it at the moment, and there is almost no activity at all so I wouldn't hold your breath for it,
I have a feeling that there is a flashable rom for yours tho which is getting worked on.

If you updated using zune, a backup should be in there. Zune makes a backup automatically everytime you update.
Just restore to that backup and you might be able to jailbreak it.

theres almost no one working on it due to limited distribution, the focus S is (looks like) an amazing device but because its wrapped up with AT&T in the US it never gained the attention it should have, thus no developers.
Id actually like to have a wee chat with some of the DFT team to find out what we can achieve ourselves, there must be something we can do, a dummies guide to bootloader unlocking needs to be made! hell id even pay for it!

As would I, the focus S is the best WP7 device hands down. Not an opinion, a fact.

Samsung Omnia I8350, os ...8773. Jailbreak or unlock
Hi Mikaelel,
Nice response! I am looking at the XDA site for several months because I also have a Samsung W with WP OS 8773 preinstalled. (model - SAMSUNG GT-I8350, os 7.10.8773.98, h rev 23.15.0.8, software radio 2424.12.1)
After reading your answer and read all the links suggested by you (actually I had already read), I wanted specifically subscribe to the forum to ask you where, in the above link, is it explained how to unlock the phone with OS 8107, or how downgrade it to 7740 SO firmware??
link 1. The WindowBreak Project - not work with 8107
link 2. WP7 Root Tools - not work because it needs Interop Unlocked
link 3. XapHandler - not work because it needs WP7 Root Tools
link 4. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1637222 - link doesn't work
link 5. Bazaar for Windows Phone - ???
So I'd like to know (and I think all who have a samsung with so 8107 forward), if there is a way to do jailbreak or unlock.
Or, if you think we can at least try a downgrade, can you suggest where to find the old firmware version like 7740?
I read that there are a number of Cooking Rom (ultrashot or mwang) for Omnia7. Nothing for Omnia W?
Thanks.
