[Q] Application Deployment not working after interopunlock - Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting
Having a crazy day. Got the new ChevronWP7 unlock last night. Did the internet sharing interop combo. Now get error trying to reload xap files. Trying to put on accentchanger file.
Error - failed to connect to the device. Ensure that the device is connected..
The xap app is not supported
You have to deploy supported xap only
Ex:
Screen cupturer
Nokia maps
Battery status
Tango, but it is now in marketplace
Some other apps like Native keyboard are not working.
Good luck.

@verynuclear: Not sure what you think you're trying to say, but it's totally possible to use high-privilege apps like Advanced Config (which does custom accent colors, among other things). You just need Interop Unlock, which is easy on LG, possible (via an app) on Samsung, and difficult but not impossible on HTC (I have it on my HD7).
The problem is that after using the Interop-unlock app on his or her Samsung phone, the OP seems to be having trouble with the XAP deployment tools. @jgibo, I suggest you read and then post in the relevant threads for those apps, rather than starting a new thread.
The main reason for asking question is if the deployment tool stopped working for anyone else. After I got Chevron on there I was able to install screen capture, accent changer. Screen capture worked. So I removed accent changer and followed instructions for interop unlock install. Then saw the thread for internet sharing and interop in one. Installed that to phone. Got internet sharing Then tried a few different xap files and couldn't install any. So did that xap mess something up? Guess I will look elsewhere for answers.
This is all they have on MSDN site.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This can be caused by several reasons, including if the device is off. If the device is already connected, sometimes disconnecting and then reconnecting the device may fix the problem. Rebooting the device may also fix this problem
You do have internet sharing OFF right? You can not deploy XAP's with ICS on. I don't mean to be rude but it really does pay to read the whole post when someone gives instructions on how to do something before saying it messed up your whatever.
voluptuary said:
As long as your device is unlocked in some way (Developer/Chevron/Other) you can get internet sharing on your Samsung phone.
1.) First install the WP Dev Tools and unlock your Samsung phone.
2.) Use the Application Deployment tool to send THIS to your phone. You do not need to run it and you can delete it after it has been deployed.
3.) Install the Diagnosis app by typing ##634#
4.) After the Diagnosis app starts type *#9908# and select 'System Tweaks' press 'Save' then 'Close' and RESTART your phone.
5.) Your phone now has internet sharing and as a bonus is interop unlocked!
PS: You need to have a recent firmware on your phone or your diagnosis app and drivers will not be new enough to work.
EDIT: I built the file depoyer app using the tools provided by Heathcliff74 so many thanks to him! Also ADC is built in as well so no need to worry about that and I also upped the max number of connections from 3 to 5 devices.
NOTE: If you have internet sharing turned on (active hotspot) you will not be able to deploy XAP's untill it is turned off. Also, as with any xap, you need to have your screen unlocked to deploy.

Of course if you have ICS off then I'm sorry for this little rant and all I can suggest is restarting your phone and PC and trying again.
ICS is and was off. Found other posts with same message. Currently reinstalling dev tools. I do IT support for a living and hate havinng to do troubleshooting on my own stuff From past experience with computers it is either a coincidence or cause when a new problem occurs. Hence the questions asked. I do remember seeing an odd usb error in system try when I was doing step 4. Did a troubleshoot on my Focus connection but that didn't help. Also tried all usb connections. If the reinstall doesn't work will have to get my htpc out and try on it.
Reinstall didn't work. Since it stopped after running system tweaks I am trying again. Wish the instructions had a note on how long after hitting the save button before it was done. Has the Loading GPRS Profile for System Tweaks on screen. I think I may have hit the close button yesterday while is was still showing Loading. Right now I am not touching phone till I see it go away. Unless you are supposed to hit close right after hitting save.
The settings are applied almost instantly, as soon as it says loaded after you hit save then you can hit close and restart. Another user stated they had to turn ICS on then off again before he could deploy XAPs. Another question, you haven't turned on wired tethering have you? I ask because if you don't set your phone back to Zune sync you also will get the error you are getting.
EDIT: Main question, does Zune see your phone when you plug it in at all? Can you sync media? Cause if you can't you have another issue that is beyond anything my XAP could have done.
That kind of worked. Turned on ICS then back off. Got Advanced Config to install. Now get UnauthorizedAcessException. Click ok and app closes. Go from one issue to another.

[Q] Windows Phone Unlock Chevron Unique Problem
I have been able to unlock my phone before, but now no matter what I do, I just can't seem to get past the ChevronWP7.exe error of not being able to communicate with the phone after I click unlock.

Please help me understand where the heck I went wrong! Am I missing anything, are there any wrong values? I'm aiming for just being able to unlock at this point. This is driving me insane!
Thank you for your help.
Edit:
I've checked any and all possible reasons for not being able to unlock, from using TCPView to kill https processes, to editing the hosts file from having the loopback to windows developer server. I have no other ideas other that this registry is messed up. If anyone (so long as they havent messed with the USB storage thing) could just export that whole registry folder:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Enum\USB\VID_045E&PID_04EC&MI_00]
and just post it, that would be more than enough. Thank you again.
Solution It did end up being my registry settings. Went to another computer, installed the Developer Tools, ran ChevronWP7, and voila. Still dont know my problem though, and with the new NoDo update I know I'll have to reset again eventually, so if anyone can shed any light that would be great.
I'd say, uninstall the samsung drivers, remove what's left of these registry keys, install the drivers again and connect your device to recreate the registry keys.
I've already uninstalled the Samsung drivers, and I'll try deleting those registry keys. I've already tried uninstalling and reinstalling both the Windows Phone Deeloper Tools, didn't do very much. Can access just fine through Zune, but any xap deployer (including Microsoft's) and the ChevronWP7 can't.
I deleted the registry key (or rather what I could, some of them were system protected and wouldn't budge when I edited permissions), then uninstalled zune and reinstalled it. I plugged my phone in and everything synced just fine. Tried Chevron, it started and detected my phone was jailbroken. I was also able to deploy xaps. Thanks for the suggestion, saved me from a lot of frustration.

I have the same problem as above; Unlocked my Focus, it got re-locked somehow and now I can't re-unlock it, after trying everything. Should I do what OP ended up doing? If so, how do I do that?
I've had a somewhat related issue where something in my PC's registry or user profile was screwing Zune up. I'd get a generic "Please disconnect, restart your phone, and pray" response that never worked. The fix? Recreate my user profile in Windows which has a net effect of giving you all new HKEY_CURRENT_USER stuff. This may be necessary for others in the future, specifically when one computer works differently than another.

Please help me understand where the heck I went wrong! Am I missing anything, are there any wrong values? I'm aiming for just being able to unlock at this point. This is driving me insane!
Thank you for your help.
Edit:
I've checked any and all possible reasons for not being able to unlock, from using TCPView to kill https processes, to editing the hosts file from having the loopback to windows developer server. I have no other ideas other that this registry is messed up. If anyone (so long as they havent messed with the USB storage thing) could just export that whole registry folder:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Enum\USB\VID_045E&PID_04EC&MI_00]
and just post it, that would be more than enough. Thank you again.

I had the EXACT same problem with my Focus after unlocking it. I also had been playing with the Diagnosis app, so i figured it was that. I've never touched the registry of my phone...
Can't Unlock Phone - Using Official Dev Account - RESOLVED
Ok, now I'm going into my third day with this phone, and I'm really struggling to find a way that it has made me happy. I mean, yeah, I like the OS and all, but Sprint still hasn't gotten back to me on whether they're going to send me a free Airave (I spend half the time in my home roaming). I had to reset the device yesterday to get it to connect to Marketplace - even though my account has never said anything but US (last time I left the country was in the Navy 21 years ago) - and even though I could connect to marketplace on Zune software, my phone wouldn't connect to it. Now I've got that working, by resetting the phone. Now I can't get the phone unlocked. My developer account has been approved, identity verified, and the next step in my process is unlock my phone. I have tried all the tricks I've found so far: start phone, unlock the lock screen, turned off a bunch of services on my PC (like SQL, IIS, and more), reset my phone again, touch marketplace on the phone while connected so it says "connected" on the screen... Between all this and the lousy reception I get at home, I'm ready to just chuck this thing back at Sprint and say, "Thanks, but no thanks." The one thing keeping me from doing that is that Verizon is going to get the Trophy, and I want a phone with a keyboard. I've had keyboards on all my WinMo phones, and don't plan to stop now. I just wish this phone was available on VZW. I'm going to stick it out as long as I can, but iff I don't have an improved experience by day 28, Sprint gets it back... </rant> Ok... Have I missed any other steps in getting this phone to connect to the Developer Phone Registration tool?
Have you tried following the directions here: http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Fo...s/thread/bfa70370-4926-4086-ad0e-febe716b8bf0
Yes, many times.... I never get past step 4.
Someone just told me an another thread that you have to be verfied through GeoTrust and to do that you must first create and submit an app that you have developed. After you submit the app, supposedly GeoTrust will contact you via email and have you verify some personal information.
Make a fake app. That's all you have to do. Make one, then submit it. This will generate a claim number with GeoTrust. Trust me, I had to do this myself...
Have you got your certificate from msdn yet it takes a couple of days, once you get your certificate your account will be unloced

My account has already cleared GeoTrust, and the next step is to unlock my phone. I'm not a student, but it wouldn't matter - I can't get that far. The reg tool doesn't even detect my phone.
If you're getting the dreaded "Check that the Zune software is running blah blah blah" message, this one is a PITA to deal with. From what I've seen poking around on the interwebs, it's hitting a good number of people. It happened to me too. I have 2 systems that are identical hardware wise, and running 64 bit OSes. I have 1 machine running a 32 bit OS (it's a much older system). I was finally able to unlock the phone without any issues at all on the 32 bit system (after swapping out my phone and nearly a week of struggling with it) the very first time I tried. I'm loving the phone, especially with it being unlocked, but it was a fight until I tried it on that last machine. Poke Microsoft about it. The more they hear about it and the more information they get about it the faster they'll be able to fix it (that assumes the problem is even on their end). I've heard using a USB hub (or if you're already using one then NOT using it) has helped some people. *shrug*
Thanks for all the suggestions - I appreciate them. I have yet to get my phone to get past the check zune... blah blah blah error, with the exception of one time. Here's what I did... I reset my phone, got past the intro, added my live account, hooked it to the computer, let it sync with Zune (I had deleted the phone's proflie), opened the reg tool, and it found the phone. I entered my login info, and got the dreaded 0x64 error having to do with time on the phone. Several posts I found had to do with people getting past this by using a different internet connection and finding success. Well, I have a rather odd internet connection going on. I live right behind my church, just beyond wireless range from the pastor's router. So here's what I have: Scientific Atlanta DSL modem/router combo - pastor's connection Buffalo high powered router running DD-WRT sitting on the platform (closest part of the building to my house), repeating the pastor's signal. Buffalo high powered router running DD-WRT sitting in my computer room, repeating wireless to my house, and serving as wired router to the server and the HTPC. Pastor's is 192.168.1.1, the one on the platform is 192.168.2.1, and the one in my house is 192.168.3.1, so they are all separate networks, each using the one upstream of it as a gateway. So, given my success connecting to the phone, I walked over to church, phone still connected to the computer, connected to the pastor's router, and by this point in time, I can no longer connect to the phone. I suspect that there is some update that Sprint is pushing that causes this problem, so I repeated the process several times, each time deleting the Zune profile, resetting the phone, going through enough of the startup to get to the settings, and putting it in airplane mode, then connecting in the specified order, allowing the new profile to be created, and still failing to connect to the phone from the reg tool. Over on the App Hub forums, there are several of us with this problem, and a Microsoft team member said that they believe that it is something specific about the Sprint Arrive, and they are looking into it. My main gripe about this whole thing is that since Sprint is a latecomer to the game, all the posts I'm finding about this are like six months old. Many people have overcome this problem, so you'd think that Microsoft would have figured out the problem by now, and fixed it. I hope to get this figured out soon, as I am presently unemployed, and spent my $99 to join the App Hub, hoping to make a bit of money there until I get a job. I'm working on something, but until my phone is unlocked, I can't put my confidence in testing solely with the emulator. Thanks for the tips guys. I do appreciate it.
I've heard really good things about the HTC arrive, I hope it works out for you. Who knows, it could be something NoDo related (because to the best of my knowledge those phones come with NoDo stocked on). I kinda hope it is, it would take the sting out of the fact that so many of us can't our hands on that update! haha ;-)
Yes, it does come with NoDo. It's interesting, takes a bit of getting used to, but it seems to work well. I love the phone. It feels more solid than my TP2. The only thing is that I wish the screen tilt wasn't spring-loaded. I got used to not using it most of the time on my TP2, so it's taking some getting used to on here.
Oh, frustration of all frustrations! I just grabbed my wife's phone and tried it for kicks. It took me all of 15 seconds to unlock her Sprint Arrive. So I know the problem isn't my computer. WHY WON'T MY PHONE WORK????? (oh, and if it makes any difference, she's installed WAY more apps than I have)
did you try going to msdn?
My MSDN subscription has expired, but I have posted on App Hub forums. MS thinks it is something specific to the Sprint Arrive, but who knows?
If anyone else has had this problem, there is an official workaround posted on AppHub, but for those who don't have access to that forum, here's the copy/paste: Re: Cannot register developer phone (HTC Arrive) Reply Quote Hi Folks, There is now an understood issue with respect to the HTC Arrive that may be the cause of your problem. It can affect both developer unlock as well as the ability to update the phone. A KB article is in the works but here is the gist of it for developers having trouble unlocking the phone: Windows Phone 7 Developer Unlock Tool cannot detect the HTC Arrive Phone Abstract: This article applies to developers of Windows Phone 7 applications who are testing their application using the Sprint HTC Arrive, model number PC93100, OS build 7389 or 7390. Developers may find that they are unable to unlock the Sprint HTC Arrive phone using the Windows Phone Developer Unlock Tool, for the purpose of deploying their applications to the phone for testing. This article offers a remedy. Symptoms The developer completes these steps to register the phone: 1. Registers through the App Hub as per the steps described in the App Hub registration walkthrough here. 2. Downloads and successfully install the latest version of the Windows Phone Developer Tools. 3. Owns an activated Sprint Arrive in which they personalize their settings (including date and time, and selecting a language). 4. Registers the Sprint Arrive with the same Live account they used in the app hub registration. Next, the developer follows these steps for Developer specific registration: 5. Connects the Sprint Arrive to the developer's PC with the USB cable included with their device. 6. Ensures that the Zune software is running/open. 7. Launches the Windows Phone Developer Registration Tool. 8. The registration tool ultimately fails to detect the phone upon launch, reporting the following message: "Unable to connect to phone. Please check that the Zune software is running and that the Zune's sync partnership with your phone has been established." Cause This occurs due to a specific state setting in the HTC Arrive that results in the phone not being able to make a desktop passthrough connection. This state condition can be mitigated by following the steps below. Resolution Use the following workaround. 1. If connected, unplug the phone device from the computer. On the phone device: 2. Press the Windows button. 3. Press the right arrow button (on the top right of the screen) or swipe from right to left to expose the application list 4. Scroll to and select “Settings”. 5. Scroll to and select “Cellular”. 6. Select “Change Network Profile” and wait for this operation to complete (<-- this is a key step; you don't need to actually change it). 7. Press the Back or Windows key to exit the “Settings” menu. After completing the above steps, follow through with the registration process: 8. Connect the Sprint Arrive to the development PC with the USB cable included with the phone device. 9. Launch the Windows Phone Developer Registration Tool (Zune software must be running). 10. The window titled "Windows Phone Developer Registration" appears which establishes a connection to the phone device and the following status message: "Status: Phone ready. Please enter your Windows Live ID and password and click Register to begin". 11. Enter the App Hub registered Windows Live ID and password, and then press the "Register" button. 12. The following status message appears in the window: Status: Your phone has successfully been registered. Click to expand... Click to collapse
Thank you hopmedic that fixed it for me
this was driving me nuts and the info here solved it thanks
Thanks it worked.
Done the workaround, but nothing for me, still have the 0x64 error. My phone was relocked after one year of AppHub. But now I can't unlock it again.. Also tried to deelete the phone in the device list on my account and use a proxy VPN network. I'm ttired of this. :/
[Q] [XAP] Internet Sharing + Interop Unlock all-in-one for Samsung Phones
Ok, I did this on my Samsung Focus, which is dev unlocked. The internet sharing works great to be honest. It says that it will Interop unlock your phone as well but I have a new problem now as when I tried to deploy the Advanced Configuration tool to my phone, it keeps giving me an error saying my device is not connected and I need to make sure it is connected to my pc. Yes, it is and Zune recognizes it but I cannot get any other apps to sideload any longer. Nothing else seems to be wrong but the Application Deployment keeps giving me the same error message. Has anyone else tried this and had luck, or the same problem. Please help if you can, thank you. I want to get custom themes for my phone bad. I already have the battery percentage app, the folders app, and the screen capture app which are all great. Any help would be appreciated. ****Problem Resolved*****

The deployment tool just tells me It can't connect to the device, make sure it is connected to the pc. It is and it is synced with zune so I don't know what the problem would be.

You don't by chance have internet sharing on while you are trying to deploy do you? This possibly could cause problems. I just my XAP on two of my devices and it worked on both and I can still side load other apps including ones I know are interop unlock required like WP7 Root Tools so perhaps there is something wrong with the XAPs themselves. EDIT: When in doubt when dealing with anything Windows try a reboot of both the PC and the phone.

[Q] chevron wp7 connectivity problem
I am able to reach upto that dialog box where I have. To select both options and click unlock. But as I click unlock same connectivity problem arises. Says unable to communicate with ur phone Make sure Zune is running is there a solution
ChevronWP7 Unlocked does not work on any phone version newer than 7008. This is quite well documented. Additionally, the certificate it uses (the file you had to install) is expired, and won't work unless both the phone and the PC have their clocks set bback a few months. If you read the last few pages of the ChevronWP7 Unlocker thread, this was also mentioned several times and in some detail. Please, research hacks before you try to use them. It will save everybody some time and trouble, but most especially yourself.
[Q] Internet Explorer problem
Hi everyone, I have a problem with Internet Explorer on my HD7 Since yesterday, Internet Explorer refuses to open from the start screen or Apps list. Clicking on web links in emails does not work, clicking on pinned web pages does not work. Live tiles, Emails, RSS feeds, texts, Phone calls etc. work as expected. I have downloaded several third party browsers which work as expected. I have checked using 3G and Wifi connections, and soft reset multiple times to no avail I have searched and have not seen anyone else reporting this problem which leads me to suspect it's a device specific software problem. I was following my normal morning routine yesterday, reading the emails with new and updated posts from XDA when it suddenly stopped opening the links in the emails. I tried opening up Internet Explorer and this too failed. The animation transition starts to take place when pushing the I.E. tile, and then it comes back to the start screen. I am running 7720 and have not played around with the phone or changed anything to cause this problem. Does anyone have any suggestions or thoughts before I go ahead and press the "Reset your phone" button ?? Thanks in advance, Garrickus
Work around Hi, Got the same problem with no available solution till now. I just have a workaround for you, disable in settings the "open links in new tab" and you should be able to use IE9 again afterwards. Tabs will not work though. I even read somewhere that hard reseting device will not solve the problem !!?? Do it or not and tell me if you find something. Regards, Thomas

You say you read "somewhere" that hard resetting the phone doesn't fix the problem , (I haven't as yet done so myself, as I'm currently compiling word docs of Internet Explorer favourites etc. and uploading them to Skydrive so I can restore them later ) which implies someone else has also encountered this problem ? If a hard reset doesn't work for me (I'm waiting on the weekend to do this as it'll probably take hours ) then I'm seriously thinking of upgrading the sdhc card to a 32gb one and flashing a custom rom I'll keep you updated. And once again, thank you for taking the time to reply , with well over a hundred views, I was beginning to think I was invisible Garrickus
i would flash a custom rom (you have the requirements), its easy to do (just search for it) and the advantages of it are great. you would never want to go back to an official rom again.
I haven't heard of this problem before, and don't have a direct fix - I'd need to examine your phones in some detail to do so. However, if you have a full-unlocked phone, or you have WP7 Root Tools, I'm releasing an app that can configure your phone to use a third-party app as the default beowser (on my phone, I'm currently using IE+, for example). There are some caveats - not all browsers will be supported, and not all of IE's features work on third-party browsers - but it should work to let you open links sent in emails or SMS or apps. They have tabs too (in fact, IE+ has better tab management than IE9; one reason I use it).
Glad to see it partially solved your problem ;-) My device is a Samsung Omnia 7 with latest firmware and mango installed (do not have the disapearing keyboard fix). I suspect either windowbreak interop unlock method or windows phone manager to be the culprit with our tabs problem. Are you interop unlocked ? Have you installed Windows Phone Manager ? Have you sideloaded any app ? Sent from my OMNIA7 using Board Express

I'd love to allow you (you Windows Phone Guru ) access to my phone, if it would help me and the community, but, it's my main device and your too far away to visit I have a stock phone so I doubt there is any kind of dump or something I can do to provide more clarification on the problem, but it's very real and very annoying I had a quick search for "IE+" in the marketplace, but didn't see it. Could you provide a link please ? Or did you sideload it ? If the hard reset doesn't work, my carrier has said they will swop it out for a refurbished unit, so I have a couple of options. If I get my act together by the weekend, I might upload a video of the problem to YouTube for information purposes. Also, my phone has been exhibiting some strangeness for a while now. Occasionally freezing up, then unfreezing itself. Internet Explorer freezing when the loading bar reaches 4/5's distance, and taking ages to finish loading. Some tiles (third party only) losing their images but not the text, or backing out of an app to the Start screen resulting in all the tiles being empty for a few seconds before filling in. Start screen flashing green and crackly looking. None of them particularly bothered me too much till now. I'll keep you all posted. Garrickus

Thanks anyway Garrickus
IE+ is being published to the Marketplace this week, I think. There's a pre-release build of it available on this forum, but I'm not sure if that version supports the required behavior for be-the-default-browser support. I'm looking at other apps too (requires decompiling them, unless I can get a chance to talk to the developer, but that's usually easy). However, if your phone isn't interop-unlocked, you wouldn't be able to use the switcher anyhow, though. It requires TCB (or "root") permissions, because it needs to write to the registry. It's possible to interop-unlock your phone (I have an HD7 myself), but you'd need to downgrade the firmware first. The list of bugs you're experienced sounds like it *might* actually be some kind of defective hardware. The usual problem is the internal microSD card that is used for storage on the phone being defective or coming loose. There are a few other possibilities too, though. Unfortunately, trying to fix them yourself is likely to void your warranty, with no guarantee of success.
Video uploaded to Youtube Hi all, So my problem persists, and I am due to hard reset the phone to see if that solves the issue in the next couple of days. Before I do so however, I have uploaded a video showing the problem to Youtube for information purposes. Lets see if anyone else is having the same problem, and if a solution exists. Here's the link to the video http://youtu.be/L0YIkCybvhg If the hard reset doesn't work, my carrier have said they will swop the unit for a refurbished one. Does anyone have any experiences of this ? Are they like new ? Or beaten up a bit ? Regards Garrickus
More people reporting the problem on Microsoft answers forum Hi everyone, I checked the Microsoft answers forum and it seems Others are reporting the issue as well I counted at least half a dozen posts with the same problem as myself here http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/...one&CurrentScope.Filter=&askingquestion=false So far, the only advice offered is to hard reset the phone, with some users reporting this solved their issue. One user reported that although it solved their issue, now their phone tile doesn't work Regards Garrickus
After hard reset Hey everyone, So I hard reset my phone on Thursday and as a result, Internet Explorer now works again as it should I decided not to restore a backup, and set up the phone manually (which took about 3 hours ). A couple of things I've noticed since - Battery life seems massively improved , now reporting over a days use on a full battery. I'll keep an eye on this as before I was only getting about 14 hours. Another thing I've noticed is the keyboard. Now when I type, it highlights the word it thinks I want to use in bold, and it definitely didn't do that before I'll keep you all posted on how things go over the next couple of weeks, if any of the problems I reported show up again, but, fingers crossed, it's all good for now, and loving my phone again. Thanks for all your input. Garrickus
Have a question... Does Hard resetting the device keep the os updates ?? (Mango, etc..) Or do you have to apply them again afterwards ? Thanks for your answer Thomas Sent from my OMNIA7 using Board Express

Thanks !! Another and last question, does hard resetting keep the phone windowbreak interop unlocked ? Sent from my MID74C using XDA
Too bad. I have this problem too. Last night after connect to public wi-fi and enter username & password in automatic IE pop-up. You can't open IE if your setting of "Open links from other apps in" is "A new tab". If change this settings to "The current tab" you can open multi-IE for multi-tab but can't use normal tab. I think I will HR my device too. tlefeuvre said: Thanks !! Another and last question, does hard resetting keep the phone windowbreak interop unlocked ?

I am facing similar issue. I guess I know when it started (but not sure about it) I had opened Google Search app. I was searching some images. In results displayed, I clicked 1 imgage. It opened Internet Explorer. When I tried to open "Tab" from Menu to close tab and exit IE, IE was simply not getting close and it was opening continously. I finally pressed Power button to switch off phone. After phone was restarted, I observed that while internet explorer is open and I open the tabs, it shows absolutely nothing, it doesn't show the tab for the page that is currently open or none of the other tabs that are open. Rather it shows Blank page with symbol to add new tab. But even new tab is not getting added. I tried several reboot on phone but somehow "Tab" thing is broken. I am also having feeling that Internet Explorer running in the backround that will not close even after a restart. I dont want to Hard Rest Phone, but I think its only Solution for now. Hope MS fix this issue in WP7.8.
