Hi....I have windows 7.5 mango OS on my samsung focus...which is locked(cannot load sideload apps)..i just want to know that for unlocking it, do i need to downgrade to NO-DO?
Yes. Flash it to factory ROM and Chevron unlock it. Then upgrade to Mango(You will need to do that provxml method before upgrading). I did it today.

You must install Zune ver. 4.7 because this version is compatible with NoDo. Ver 4.8 install later.
I go to bootloader mode and now checking connection is ok but I have some problem with Image version which is empty...
I attached screenshot.
Ok I managed to downgrade to 7004 so now Mango.
I have managed to run Mango 7720 with my national langauge and chevron unlock after downgrading from 7392 locked so if someone is interested please give ma a sign and I will post step by step what I have done.

@omygoodness could you please send me how you did this? I only want to downgrade to unlock so I can put the special registry key to update to Dutch when Mango is available.
You must install ROM from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1013810 for pre-NoDo and read this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1216975&highlight=tutorial or this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1215501 for your language.
Thanx! It worked. Flashed to pre-NODO, then unlock, install registry editor, then put in the needed registry keys for language and prevent relock, then put NODO back on.
Now wait for mango
Hi All,
Anyone could tell me how to I update to Mango 7720 with the unlock as 7329/7403.
I've the unlock one, 7329. Ok, from the web I can update to 7403 by keeping the unlock. But, for next step, all web said to 7712. But, my Zune can update to 7720 at one shot, no choice for 7712.
When I do as the web from 7403 with the unlock, to 7712 from Zune. After I run "Connection Setup" at the last. It's nothing to help. I can't run the old app (force to revoke, uninstall), or deploy a new app (locked).
(I can restore back to 7329/7403 with an unlocked one)
Regards.
It shouldn't matter whether you do it to 7712 or 7720

Not quite sir,
because, on the web, it will use Zune (I think that version is 4.8.2134.0) update to 7712. And use special method to update it to 7720 RTM, like as run command 'ISVTo7720.bat' to patch the 7712 to 7720. (I mean at 7712 it can unlock)
but now, zune can update to 7720 RTM. A new version (4.8.2345.0) may do something more?
I'm not sure. I may be wrong.
Because, I try by following the step follow the web, from 7329 to 7403 [ok], and 7403 to 7720... it's locked. Although, I pushed and xml file in windows and run Connection Setup.
So, anyone can migrate from 7329/7403 to 7720 work? without passing 7712. If yes, please tell me the step
Same here, can't keep Chevron when updating from 7403 directly to 7720 via Zune.
I don't like custom roms, but now i had to flash DeepShining :/
Hi people,
I've tried searching for an answer to my problem but had no luck...
I'm new to wp7. I've just bought a htc mozart on the internet and after receiving it I realized it was originally a telstra (au) model but it is now running Mango 7714.WM7_Main(DFT). I knew nothing about wp7 roms or jailbreak. I realize now this is a custom unbranded mango rom. I wanna revert to the original telstra rom and then update officially to the carrier's mango. I've searched and found this thread with branded roms for the mozart: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=915827
I use mac and not pc. Is it safe to install a branded nodo rom on my mango DFT mozart? If so, how do I do this on my mac? Can I unlock my mozart later with no problems?
anyone there?
It's safe to do so, yes. However, the flashing tool is written or Windows. You can borrow a friend's Windows system to do it, install Windows on your Mac (directly or in a VM), or try using wine (Win32 compatibility software for POSIX systems, including OS X) to run the flashing tool. I don't know which of these is easiest; it's probably not Wine but that's the only one that doesn't require somebody having a copy of Windows (Wine is free and open-source; http://winehq.org).
As for "unlock" that really depends what you mean.
If you want to developer-unlock it, using an AppHub account or ChevronWP7 Labs, yes you can.
If it's SIM-locked and you need to SIM-unlock it, that should also be possible; talk to your mobile operator.
If you want interop-unlock (install and run high-privilege apps in Mango) then no, using the official upgrade will make that (currently) impossible. We're working on an interop-unlock (so-named because it makes it possible to install and run XAPs with ID_CAP_INTEROPSERVICES) for HTC phones that are already on Mango and/or have received the official update, but so far no such luck.
If you want to use the unlocked bootloader to possibly install a custom ROM in the future, be careful - the official Mango update modifies the bootloader in such a way that HSPL (required for custom ROMs) can't be used. Again, people are working on fixing this or providing a way to downgrade, but it's unclear whether this is possible at present without physically opening up the phone.
Hello everybody,
I am a noob on flashing Windows Phones. Since I cannot wait for interop-unlock for my phone I could use some help on flashing my AT&T surround.
1) How do I use the DTF RSPL to flash their rom? If someone has a sort of complete tutorial on how to do that I'll really apppreciate.
2) They said not to use RSPL with Mango RUU or with SHubert 4.XX. I have Mango (7720) installed on my device with all the updates. Can I still use RSPL (version and number looks compatible)?
If not of them is working can I revert back to Nodo (and how) to interop unlock and then upgrade.
I have searched the whole forum but I am not able to get a complete view of the processes.
Hello xdaDevelopers
i am new here, and already read some of the forums or threads related to my problem but still i can get the right answer that i wanted...
my phone is an HTC HD7 form t-mobile and recently i update it with zune, so now it has accure acquired the new mango FW, after that i want to unlock my phone so i can deploy .xap files and my projects..
i have tried the chevronWP7 but it doesn't work, i gives me an error that i should connect my device in a USB and recognized it by zune, but those things i already have done and still no progress..
i also register my phone to XAP HUB but i cant affored that $99 fee on signing.. thats stupid.. that thing should be free..
can you give me any recommendations that i should do in order to unlock this device in order for me to deploy programs...
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" ???
