It didnt work for me too : Connection Setup didnt launch anymore after the 7720 Update so the phone stay locked ....
But i use Xaploader from Ansar : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=18280255#post18280255 who will install Connection Setup 1.0 as a purchased app ... then the final update can be unlock

DFT rom
The only way I could get to mango and have my HTC surround stay unlock was by using the hspl/rspl then the DFT rom for it, I tried several times to do it through the legit upgrade path with the guides etc and it did not work, I could not even get as far as nodo with an unlock

[Q] Unlocking my Phone [Mango]

Hey there.. I've been thinking on how to solve my problem but idk how to do so..
Phone: HTC 7 Trophy
Current Version: Mango
I had a clean NoDo version (NoDo Based Phone) and i went on to "update" it into Mango without unlocking it and i now face a problem of installing .xap files into my phone.. :S
Yea. So i went to look for solutions and i know that i'll have to restore my phone and unlock it before updating to Mango so that it'll be a unlocked Mango. But the problem is all i see on the net is to unlock the NoDo version using Chevron and if i'm not wrong it is currently down..
OR
By creating a dev account which i can't and idk why :S.
I hope that you people can help me out.. I've been stuckeddd for a few days already :/
And how can i check if my phone is locked, i heard from people saying i can check it by trying if "Connection Setup" works on a mangoed phone. Mine works but well.. Idk :S. Ive tried deploying xap files into my phone but they always state, make sure that my phone was unlocked.. I've tried diff apps already :S Almost all
Oh and i'm able to use multi-tasking o.o.

Hi Junshengkoh,
Read through this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1215501, it provides a complete guide on how to perform the unlocked Mango upgrade. It also refers to another guide by Ansar which will show you how to perform the XML provisioning at each step to ensure you keep your unlocked status.
Hope this helps,
Creamy
Thank you for your help.
So that means that I can unlock my Mango based phone?
Btw, these won't work on a XP computer right? Only on Vista and Windows 7?

I don't think there is a way to do the Chevron unlock on the CDMA WP7 phones that come with NoDo stock. You have to be pre-NoDo for Chevron to work and there is no pre-NoDo CDMA ROM (I think; I could be wrong). I am in the same situation and paid to become a developer to get mine unlocked. Sorry...
Haha thankyou very much for explaining it to me!

Cant unlock nodo need help

Basiclly I had mango installed on my phone and saw that everyone was unlocking them and so I went back to my nodo backup. I was reading a tut that was ment for pre nodo and it didnt say that so I hard reset my phone. After looking everywhere on how to unlock nodo I found nothing. So Now I have a stock nodo rom on my phone is it possible to unlock it and then bring it up to mango still unlocked. Btw I have an HTC Arrive
u would have to flash back to pre nodo rom then unlock with chevron and use tut to pass chevron unlock to mango
Where is a rom I could download/use for my phone. Htc Arrive,I got my phone with nodo already on it so I dont have a pre nodo backup
check out these two threads ... depending on what carrier u have though

Thanks alot I am gonna do that now. Really thankful
Where can I find the htc-flasher for windows 7 I only find the one for linux
what do u mean ? just do as it says in step C the flashing instructions the romupdate utility is for windows 7
sorry I thought I need a tool or something
Ok i tried that but it says it doesnt see my phone do i have to put into bootloader mode and how do I do that
edit:nvm found out
OK I go it to flash but now it thinks its an HTC MWP. Also It still wont let me unlock it. Can someone please help me. I flashed it so its now version 7392 so can it be unlocked
what carrier do u have and what country
I have sprint and USA. Also I am now at nodo and Im preety sure I read that its impossible for the HTC arrive
Sorry, you CANNOT have HTC Arrive without NoDo. NoDo added CDMA support which is needed to operate on Sprint's network.
yea day2die is right sorry ... looks like u need to flash the sprint nodo rom back on to ur phone
that really sucks. Well can I flash pre nodo with out any service and then unlock. then flash to sprint rom
you would have to wait and see if there will be a custom rom avail which would be already unlocked and have to use rspl for the bootloader to allow u to flash a custom rom... but then u wont be able to update through sprint probably

If you used the official update route your phone must have been relocked during the update to 7740 hence you have no ability to side load apps. Roll back to the previous 7720 version through Zune and stick with that if the phone was Interop unlocked, if it works.
If your bootloader has changed to version 5******* theres not a lot you can do yet to unlock your device, apart from the Goldcard method.

I thought that the newest zune doesn't backup the complete device any more... is this true? is it possible to go back to 7220 without hard resetting your device?
very strange...
in the morning tried to downgrade to 7720, but unsuccessful. after few hours tried again, but it seems that my phone is half-bricked...
anyway, connect the phone to pc, zune started and i see "restore"!... right, i can restore to 7720 and now my apps works!
tried now to update to 7740 offline, but the same situation: can't use apps!... tried to interop-unlock in 7720 with htcinteropunlock.xap, but can't find in connection setup "interop unlock".
please help me, because i really need to update to 7740 because of outlook forward message update and also because i need to use these apps (navigon is one of them).
it is possible to have a 7740 phone with interop-unlock?
thx.
You might be lucky and stay unlocked by updating from the restored version of 7720 to 7740 by trying one of these methods:
While running your unlocked 7720 install the attached Advanced Configuration 1.5 .xap swipe the screen and go to 'Tweaks' and make sure the box 'Prevent phone from relocking' is ticked. Now run the 7740 update and see if that keeps it unlocked.
If the above doesn't work go back to the 7720 backup and install U2M7720 V1.2 and follow the instructions below before running the 7740 update.
Select U2B2, complete provxml and tap on done
Finally just tap on Chevron Unlock (will exit U2M7720)
DO NOT RUN Connection Setup now
Update to 7740
NOW run Connection Setup
Let me know if either of these methods work for you, and could you please let me know which bootloader version you have on the 7720 and 7740 ROM versions, I know you have already updated and it could be the same for both now.
The bootloader version is found by powering off then powering back on while holding the volume down button in. To get out of bootloader mode hold the power button down for a few seconds until the phone turns off then power it back on.
first method not work.
try now the second. which version of connection setup must be installed?
just tried: it seems that even this method failed. connection setup don't start and the other apps don't work.
i will try again to restore and install connection setup from marketplace.
spl - 5.10.2250.6 (132274) mng
update: still locked...
It'll be the 5.10.2250.6 bootloader that's keeping the phone locked, there is no easy work around for it that I'm aware of, unless you flash back to a manufacturers ROM using the Gold card method then install a custom 7740 ROM using RSPL/HSPL.
it's very strange because on saturday morning my phone wasn't half-bricked, but when tried to flash an other rom it appears that is bricked...
and why when restore to 7720 everything working?!?!
That'll be the bootloader version causing those issues.

I had a similar issue a few months ago and I was able to flash back to my phone's original firmware which downgraded the bootloader back to v1.07.
I'm guessing most of the half brick situations are caused by incorrect firmware being loaded when flashing back to an older version.
You may need to identify your CID and operator for your phone.
Instructons and links below:
----I haven't tested this with the verizon version of the handsets as I don't own one of those handsets. You may want to check the forum for any bricking related issues with those handsets & Flashing firmware will reset your phone's settings including contact links, message threads and saved game progress etc...----
Identify your phone's original firmware type (CID and Operator)
Flash with the corresponding firmware
Reinstall HSPL/RSPL from DFT Team
Now you may flash the required firmware such as DFT, custom builds etc...

thank you

Chevron unlock methods only work on OS version 7004 and 7008. Flash it to factory ROM, unlock it and use provxml method to retain unlock in mango and then update to mango.
Or you could use a DFT mango custom ROM.
Follow the instructions to install the Rom in a correct way.
If you have problems to connect your phone with the software
you maybe forgot to install all the drivers and software that is needed.
Do you see in the Bootloader "Serial" or "USB" ???

[Q] Trophy ROM for Mazaa?

Hi everyone,
I am an HTC Mazaa owner and want to know if theres a way to install HTC Trophy ROM on my Mazaa device. Since apperently Mazaa is same in everything to Trophy, so I guess no extra drivers will be needed.
I am very new to all this. So please tell me if theres a chance for installing Trophy ROM on Mazaa, if yes, how.
Thank you.
Please reply people
CPU is different
I think CPU and some chip is diffrent so It is not possible
The answer is no. The HTC Mazaa may share the same shell with the HTC Trophy, but the internals are different.
Is there any other way to install the latest ROM?
OR atleast tell me how to do interop unlock on my Mazaa.
The HTC Interop-Unlock app should work on the Mazaa, unless it has a specific block on the Connection Setup app or its firmware version is too high.
HTC interop-unlock is not working on my Mazaa that has mango. Please help.
... Did you read the info on what is required for the app to work? What's your firmware version number? Prior to Mango, were you able to use provxml apps?

I feel your pain, I have interop unlocked my Trophy twice but with this latest firmware it's impossible. We will have to wait for a custom ROM.
Verizon Trophy is now supported in V3 of DFT's HSPL unlock. I have written a HOWTO guide for Verizon Trophy.
Mazaa, I somehow doubt if DFT is working to support, but you'd need to contact them and ask. They can only work on phones they can get their hands on, and they may not be able to get a Mazaa.
It seems that Mazaa has one stock rom available (i have no way of verifying if this rom works), but it is for Mango. I do not know if this phone shipped with NoDo or if you can find a stock NoDo from for it (perhaps try private messaging Football to see if he has a connection that can get roms for this phone??).
Verizon Trophy can be downgraded to NoDo using the same rom listed in my HSPL guide (it is the only NoDo rom that isn't a store demo).
Hi,
I uploaded the stock mango rom. It works.
I personally don't know anyone with a stock nodo rom for the mazaa.
Connection setup should exit with "no database found" or something like that. Yes, very lame.
On the whole, there's no way to interop-unlock the mazaa yet.
Interestingly, if you register the phone's serial on the htc website, it registers as a SPARK_W, which is the same as the verizon trophy. I haven't tried using hspl v3 to unlock it, so update us if you get anywhere.
but if you do screw up, then just use the stock rom above. ;-)
