[Q] Chevron 10 xap limit? - Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

There is no mention of it on chevronwp7, but is it true that after unlocked, only 10 apps/xaps can be sideloaded?
If so, is there a method to increase this number?
If it's a dumb question, sorry. I'm not really that knowledgeable.

yes / depends
The Chevron Unlock does the same as the normal Developer Unlock which allowes you to sideload 10 applications. You can sideload more apps if you are interop unlocked.

So i do the chevron unlock, and then interop after that, and i'll be able to sideload more than 10? I was planing to do interop anyway.
Again, sorry if dumb, but i DO need chevron/developer unlock to do interop?

Yeah being chevron unlocked first is a requirement in most situations ...if not all . But yeah interop gets you unlimited.

1 Connect your phone with the pc
2 Launch zune (log on on zune)
3 unlock your screen on your cellphone
(scroll a little on the menu for that can't back lock the screen)
4 open your xap deploy programm
5 choose the xap
6 deploy on your phone.
That's it
That's what I do

but it's for samsung not for hTc.
Dude your device is not interop unlocked (it hasn't worked yet)...That error clearly indicates that your device is not interop unlocked. Try to install other app which doesn't require interop unlock and tell us what error do you get now?
Probably, you wont get any error.

yup that's what i have figured out that the interop unlock didn't work so i just have to install an interop unlocked rom till interop unlock comes out for mango's latest update.
Use DFT's HTC custom roms.
dont know if this will work for you but when i had that problem i used a different rom,,,,,,that worked

Unlocking HTC Radar WP7.5 Mango

Hello,
I need to unlock my HTC Radar which is with WP 7.5 Mango OS version: 7.10.7740.16. I read a lot of posts and can not find solution. I wait till ChevronWP7 labs provide unlock tokens again. Yesterday I buy token follow the procedure and I receive message that my phone is unlocked. After that I try to use Tom XAP installer to install some Apps on my phone but it didn't work it says that my device is not unlocked. After that I try do deploy an Apps buy SDK tools: Application Deployment but again I receive an error that is listed here in the forums. I have to check if my device is unlocked or not but I am not quite sure how to do that. I start Windows Phone Developer Registration and it says that I am already registered and give me option to Unregistered is that mean I am with unlocked phone ? I want do deploy some apps to my phone please help. I read some treads here that says for my phone still not possible to unlock the phone because use driversv2 is this true or I just can not find the way to unlock my phone ? Also whit this ChevronWP7 unlocker how much apps I can deploy ?
You might have to interop unlock your phone. I'm just guessing her but it's worth a shot.
Hello,
is it possible to interop my phone ? Because I read some treads and they said no for new devices that uses mango drivers v2 is this true ?
Actually I just installed with Tom XAP installer this app: BatteryStatus4.1.xap in the tread says devive unlock without interop I think this means that my device is unlocked but not interop ?
Please suggest me what can I do to install more apps. I need to install Bulgarian keyboard I try but it can not install the XAP file also I want to install wi fi and Bluetooth fast switches, I need navigation program too and I see Navigon that may be will work fine.
Interop unlock will only be needed for some homebrew apps. You should be able to install other apps without interop unlock.
I think second Gen phones like Radar cannot be interop unlocked as of now.

ChevronWP7 token

I just got my Lumia 800 and would like to unlock it so I can sideload a few things. It's unlockable via ChevronWP7, but there are no more tokens for sale.
Anyone have a token they purchased and were unable to use that would like to sell it to me? Would that even work?
Thanks!
Unfortunately Microsoft only wanted a few people to have access to a fully unlocked device even via the official ChevronWP7.
To unlock your device, you will have to find a stock ROM for it that has a pre-nodo version. Unlock using legacy ChevronWP7 method, update your device and then apply INTEROP-unlock if applicable.
I am not sure if for a Nokia device firmwares lower than Mango are available publicly :-(

Thanks for the details. I'm not willing to go that far with my OS/firmware though. It bit too troublesome for just a few .xap installations.

I made interop-unlock just to remove limit for unsigned apps. Some apps I wrote just for myself and it was annoying that I can't have them all at once on my device

Student Unlocked Phone doubt.

Hey guys,
I'm new to the forums. I have a Samsung Omnia W w/ v.8107.79. My question is if i apply for a Student developer account can i sideload any 3 apps from xda to my phone?
ALSO can i get custom accent colors on student unlocked device? Or do i need a interop unlock?
Does interop unlock void the warranty? Whats the risk involved in the process?
Thanks in advance,
Kotai.
Yes you can sideload any 3 apps as long as those apps dont need interop-unlock. Accent changing apps need interop-unlock so you won't be able to sideload them. I don't know about warranty and the risks involved.
Interop unlock and full unlock are relatively save. However, malicious apps (not from the marketplace!) can do much more but as long as you stick to xda and frequently used threads (the big ones) your save.
But you should assume that it does indeed void your warranty!

You can sideload 3 apps that DOES NOT require interop unlock.
It is sure, a "reset to factory settings" reverse these changes.. there's no risk in interop unlocking (full unlock is another thing).
Remember that Interop enabled apps can virtually access the full operating system...
With Student unlocked phone, You can able to side-load 3 apps. But remember you cannot side-load apps which require interop/full unlock.
Interop unlock voids your Warranty BUT you can it can be reverted by hard resetting your device.
