has anyone tried to install touch explorer and sound enhancer xap onto your titan? I keep getting error
and also does anyone know how to extract those halloween ringtones microsoft gave us last month from the insider app? I am selling my hd7 and need to get those off the phone coincidentally touchxplorer isnt working on my hd7 either but it was previously
Well, the official Sound Enchancer app comes from the Marketplace (at those times when HTC hasn't pulled it for a while), and should work fine. Trying to sideload it though, or TouchXplorer, or any other app that requires ID_CAP_INTEROPSERVICES (essentially, has high permissions) will not work until you interop-unlock your phone (read the stickies on the Development & Hacking sub-forum). The problem is, there's no current way to Interop-unlock an HTC phone without first rolling back to NoDo, and since the Titan comes with Mango pre-installed... yeah.
oh i see so im stuck until they figure out that out, its funny cause on my hd7 updated to mango the sound enhancer would not show up in the marketplace and so i had to download the xap and sideload it onto my phone the same issue is with the titan and it doesn't work when i try to side load, i get the same error message as when I try to sideload touchxplorer, really sucks too because I want to get those halloween ringtones from microsoft off my hd7 and onto my titan and i have already sold my phone on eBay so time is running out for me to tinker with it

Finaly! After hours and hours of updating, tweaking and backupping i finnaly got a working unlocked version of retail mango.. but... these apps aint working anymore, strange, because TouchXplorer is still working. Also Registery Editor is not working anymore!!
Are there some new alterntive apps? Especially a custom-accent changer!
You should have picked another title. I thought this is a release...
Yep, none of these are working. We already knew that. Put at least a question mark in the title

any updates?
Have you, by any chance, checked the TouchXperience site any time in the last few months? Schaps has had working Mango versions of Registry Editor and Advanced Config for a good while now.
Working fine now on my hd7 with release of custom roms that are full unlocked within the past week or so.

Working without INTEROP-UNLOCK already?
No, interop-unlock is and probably always will be required, until/unless MS comes to their senses regarding it. That said, it's working on my HD7 with stock Mango retail ROM. The process requires rolling back to pre-Mango but it's possible to interop-unlock an HTC phone as long as you are dev-unlocked and have the HTC Connection Setup app installed.
there is a version 1.4 but its really buggy on my Focus. Inter-op unlocked.
It launches and if i go fast enough i can get it to stay open in the Accent changer.
I've been able to deploy this to my phone using the Windows application deployment tool, but it doesn't appear on my app list afterwards. Am interop unlocked.
Cheers
This is because is is installed in settings, not in app list
Gladly purchased my HTC Surround. Enjoying it, although Im already missing my Aria [not really, just android]. But, heres the process i've gone through;
*UNLOCK/ROOT*
1.ChevronWP7 [http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=857127]
^--Didnt work. Error message pops up that It cant communicate
^----Found a new link. [http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=913748]
^------Only usable after having rooted/unlocked. Whats that? Another link? [http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=10793775&postcount=52]
2.After looking over this, I found it very interesting. Now, Im very computer literate but that totally lost me since wp7 has thrown me through a loop.
^--
Code:
Now in your hosts. file in \windows\system32\drivers\etc folder, you should set up an entry for developerservices.unlock.me with your computer's own IP address.
Once you do you need to install a new certificate on the phone for whatever host in the URL you made and you will be able to use ChevronWP7 to unlock incase it ever locks you out again.
To simplify the making a self-signed certificate portion, I've created a cert for "developerservices.unlock.me" with the validity date of 1000 days. It's included in this post. Hope this helps you all with maintaining an unlocked Windows Phone 7 and understanding why ChevronWP7 won't unlock anymore.
This all makes sense. To a point, which i've done.
^----
Code:
Now if you change the URL to something else, you will need a corresponding certificate. You can make one with makecert.exe or makessl.exe form the various resource/development toolkits out there on the Microsoft website.
In my example, I'm going to use a site that doesn't exist "developerservices.unlock.me". You should change the PortalUrlProd and PortalUrlInt on the phone
Totally rocked my world. Idk what exactlyto do with a "makecert.exe" program or how else to do anything. Soo....
~~~~~~~~~MY QUESTION~~~~~~~~Who wants to hold my hand and walk me through this ever so confusing process and allow me to root/unlock my HTC Surround and keep it that way even after using zune? :] Btw, i realize i posted the last 2 notes in reverse order. I did that on purpose.
That method of unlocking ONLY works if you have pre-nodo (I.e. software version 7004 or anything BEFORE 7390). If you got a surround recently from AT&T I can almost guarantee it has 7390 or 7392 installed.
HOWEVER! Not all is lost fellow surround user. A nice gentleman over in the Surround forum released the original AT&T 7004 Stock Rom Flashing this will allow you to unlock and then as long as you can follow instructions you can stay unlocked all the way to Mango.

has anyone tried going back to pre-nodo and kept their unlock with mango???
any other solution for those who have Mango and tried to dev-unlock successfully???
thanks
There's a way to try and carry a hacked unlock forward to Mango. Read the Development and Hacking sub-forum, specifically the thread about using U2M7720, an app that should (hopefully, if you follow the instructions precisely) allow you to dev-unlock your phone on Mango without a dev account, including interop-unlock (an extension to dev-unlock that allows some apps that normal dev-unlock doesn't allow on Mango).
Starting the process requires being on NoDo though; if you're already on Mango you'll need to roll back, and if you're on pre-NoDo you'll need to upgrade to NoDo and use the trick to carry through your dev-unlock.
How to format or re-use the SD card taken out from HTC surround?
I got the HTC white screen stuck on my HTC surround smart phone, it worked again after replacing the micro sd card. Tried to access or format the old card (the one was taken out from my cell phone) by my laptop, it won't be recognized. Is there any way I can format it and use it again? Thanks!
Updated my wifes HTC Arrive from NoDo to Mango via Zune official update. Everything appeared to be working, until I went to update HTC apps like flashlight, HTC Hub, HTC Photo Enhancer.
Getting error
"Marketplace error We're sorry, but we can't complete your request right now. Try launching Marketplace again. If the problem continues, check back in a little while, or try restarting your phone. Error code: 80320011".
or
If I try to get any HTC app from within that HTC Hub, the details pages for the apps are working, but there is a note present there "This app is not available for your device. Tap here for more info.". There: "App not available This might be because your phone software needs to be updated, the app is exclusive to a different mobile provider, or the app is not available in your region".
Rolling backto NoDo then will try to update again.
Anyone else having this issue with HTC?
Yes, they locked down the apps so no one can download them.

Yes, I'm having the exact same issue. Did the rollback then reinstalled official release through Zune, no dice. Sound Enhancer won't update, give the same error. All of the HTC updates worked fine with RTM 7720.
Using leaked HTC 7 Pro ROM, same problem - Error code 80320011. Can not install compass, can not upgrade Sound Enhancer.
By the way - is leaked ROM the same as official ROM, downloaded via Zune? Could someone with officialy upgraded 7 Pro write firmware numbers?
up to now I can't install/upgrade HTC apps.
HD7 NoDo to official mango.
Sound enhancer isn't in the marketplace any more so it's not going to update... Once I installed mango had to wait a like a day for all the apps to update (13 total). Oh and you can finally download connected media. There's no warning or error anymore

Check and see if you have "HTC Apps" when you go into Marketplace.
I've spent hours and tried different upgrade paths (7392 to official 7720, 7712 to official 7720, 7712 to leaked 7720 + HTC Update) numerous times, and it seems that I'd lose "HTC Apps" from the Marketplace at some random point. I can't seem to identify the pattern or reason but it's almost as if the phone loses its "identify" i.e. no longer thinks it's an HTC or something. A reset fixes the problem but then you lose the unlocked ability.
At the moment I'm staying with my unlocked 7712 backup (I know, somehow I decided to create a backup of 7712 which gives me one more option or upgrade path) to leaked 7720 + HTC Update. This is on Mozart T8697.
I downloaded dock mode but htc watch is not working, any ideas?

same here.. "HTC Apps" were gone in my marketplace.. weird because this is normal upgrade from NoDo to Mango and not using the force upgrade.
I'm using HD7.
Quote myself from another thread:
HTc Apps now work on my trophy!!!
After waiting 3 days, the App "attentive phone", which I had in my Applist since nodo, is now not longer in app list, but in my config menu. Since that, I can install the HTC DLNA App (in german: verbundene medien), too.
Now everything works nice, and i can say, the update force trick isn´t a problem, it just took a few days....whatever

I havent got the mago upgrade yet, but cant update HTC apps either.
I have the same issue with my Omnia 7 !
When i upgrade 7392 unlocked to 7720 (Unlocked or Non-Unlocked), i lose my "Operator (ORANGE) App" category in MarketPlace but i have "Samsung App" category !
I can't acces to Orange App... and i can't update my app Samsung in Mango version (Now, etc...) --> Requiere a Samsung Device... lol^^ (i have a Omnia 7)
I don't have a way... and you ?
PS : with Mango Beta 7720 (RTM), i can instal this applications...
My HTC HD7 is running the latest version of Mango and the last firmware version (not installed the 2012 January update yet). I Interop-Unlock it from the "7.0" version of Windows Phone and now I'm running Mango and I can deploy and run apps like Screen Capturer, CSharp___DllImport, Stop the Music! and TouxhXperience but I can only deploy apps like SMSBackup and TouchXplorer, beacause once these started, nothing happens. So, am I still Interop Uncloked or not? How can I know it?
As far as I know, your phone is still interop-unlocked. You can deploy apps that require interop to the phone without error, right?
Also, I am pretty sure those apps do not support the HD7 (I'm pretty sure the SMS backup one doesn't. And the TouchXplorer one doesn't work for my HD7, either)
Hope that helped! (And yes, my primary phone is an HTC HD7)
as i see your phone is still interop unlocked and those apps haven't support for HD7

I tried to install gun bros this morning and halfway thru the installation it freezes
After reseting the phone, i cannot access the following
Zune
Marketplace
Settings (barely) --> cannot go into factory reset
xbox live
Camera (barely - take a photo and it gets stuck)
Internet (barely - cant access favorite)
ALL THIRD PARTY APPS ==> CANNOT ACCESS
The following still works
People
Picture
Messaging
methods tried
1. Sync with pc - see if it automatically fixes = no
- cannot sync media
- cannot access backup
- shows the following error message when syncing

2. Switched battery, took out the sim card
I am not updated to Tango yet.
Is there anyway other than hard reset this phone? T_T
Does anyone know if you factory reset a phone, can it still go back to using the old backups?
Yes, you can still restore from backups after a hard reset. I've done it a few times on a couple of different handsets.
What model of phone is it?
Have you installed your own SD card in it (replacing the built-in one or adding your own, depending on model)?
Have you been messing with it in any hacky way (for example, do you have WP7 Root Tools installed, or have you flashed a custom ROM)?
Mozart 7 - chevron unlocked
No custom sd or rom
I ended up resetting it and return to my old backup. But now I don't have tether update anymore from HTC and the only update I keep receiving is tango... And I don't want to update to tango because I will lose my chevron unlock!
The frustration sigh..

Do you mean ChevronWP7 Labs unlock, or the original Chevron Unlocker hack? If you've managed to carry the unlock hack forward this far (i.e. to Mango), you must have already interop-unlocked your phone. In that case, your best bet is to use WP7 Root Tools and follow the instructions on WindowsPhoneHacker about how to upgrade to Tango without your phone connecting to Microsoft to validate its unlock status. Even if you don't have WP7 Root Tools installed right now, your firmware version may now be compatible after you restored that backup.
If you have a Chevron Labs unlock, then you also now have a free AppHub account for official developer unlock, and that will give you the same amount of unlock access as Chevron Labs unlock does.
Lol I'm on chevron original unlock! Carried till latest mango with no interop unlock! I know that after 1 of the HTC update I couldn't use the registry editor anymore.
My current problem is that I restored to a backup without tethering, and I can't get that update anymore because I keep receiving the tango update instead
Sent from my 7 Mozart T8698 using XDA Windows Phone 7 App
All of the published ways to carry your original Chevron unlock forward to Mango also included interop-unlock (which is just the removal of the app sideloading limit), although you may not have known that.
I repeat, what firmware version are you on right now? Also, even if it doesn't *work*, can you at least launch the registry editor app? The answer to the first question will tell me how many HTC updates you have currently (and therefore what hacks can be used). The answer to the second will tell me whether or not you are, in fact, interop-unlocked (if you can launch apps like Registry Editor at all, regardless of whether they work, you're interop-unlocked).
Um ur actually talking to the same person on the mango interop unlock thread... Lol
OS version:
7.10.8107.79
Firmware revision number
2250.21.50001.707
Radio software version
5.69.09.05a_22.50.50.21U
Bootloader version
5.12.2250.5(139188
U pointed out it is 50001 already so it should be v2
But I replied that I have never applied the interop hack and I DO have access to registry editor still right now
Thank you for your responses, hopefully I'm not confusing u too much.

The hack to carry your Chevron unlock forward to Mango *is* an interop unlock. There's many ways to apply the hack; the one you're probably thinking of is special only because it works for people who are already on Mango and didn't prepare their phones in any way beforehand.
That said, your firmware version is too high, as you say. If you don't downgrade that somehow, you won't be able to install WP7 Root Tools and therefore will lose your hacked unlock when you upgrade to Mango.
