[Q] Interop Unlock my Samsung Omnia W - Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Finally i sold out my Lumia 710 and buy Samsung Omnia W
so please tell me how to INTEROP Unlock my Samsung Omnia W
please !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Lumia 710 = Samsung Omnia W ... 2nd gen wp devices...i'm afraid you didn't solve your problem with that trade...there's no way to interop unlock them

No, it's perfectly possible to IU the Samsung second-gen. Look up the Windowbreak project.
That said, a few caveats:
If your firmware is too new ("KK2" version) you won't be able to use Windowbreak.
Just because you can interop-unlock the phone doesn't mean apps written for first-gen Samsung phones, like WP7 Root Tools, will work. Samsung changed the drivers and the new ones not only can't be used by existing apps, so far nobody has been able to use them for new homebrew either. There's some kind of lock-down on them. WP7 Root Tool v0.9 claims to support second-gen, though.
An unlocked bootloader (for custom ROMs) is not yet available on Samsung gen2.

I believe the person is from India and None of the Omnia W (infact all second generation phones from Nokia/HTC) sold in India are unlockable.

The Samsung Omnia W is not from Nokia or HTC, and is quite unlockable regrdless of where you bought it... provided the firmware version isn't too high (which it shouln't be, right out of the box).

Guys m using omnia w . my diagnosis ver is 1109 and OS ver. is 7.10.8107.79
. Does any one found out the solution to unlock this device ? any custom rom ? please help me

... have you even tried WindowBreak?
Also, why are you posting your OS version when I already said it's your Firmware version that matters? Look up how to check your Samsung firmware version; if you have KK2 you'll need to roll back before you can use WindowBreak.

I feel myself kinda n00bish, but I've installed all the possible updates and interop-unlocked my device quite easy with windowbreakproject. Diagnosis version was 1109. Restored 3g manually

i dont know it is kk2 or no. i restored back again via zune. but still in windows break project it is not showing gprs profile ! . how wil i come to know my omnia w is supportable or no ? Thanks in advance

I also faced this issue. I don't know exactly what made it appear, but I think that it was turning cell phone off and on again. Try this

please bro try to find out the solution. Even my diagnosis ver is 1109 but not getting gprs profile.is there any ROM available ??

Unfortunatelly, I doubt that I can help you because my actions was chaotic and though I consider my device Interop-unlocked, it acts a bit strange
What I've done:
I don't know why, but Heathcliff's app didn't worked for me even for the out-of-box device. Then so did windowbreakproject. I tried wbp several more times and rebooted phone. This time it worked. After installing updates I was unable to interop-unlock it so I rolled back to previous firmware and next day tried again. This time wpb worked from the first try and of course skrewed my 3G. None of the Heathcliff's advises worked, but fortunatelly I've managed to restore it all by myself. Take my words with a grain of salt because for instance Advanced Config app works unstable from time to time throwing Win32 Exception, I also can't change accent colors with it, however I can access all the other functions. TouchXperience works well.
May be I'm missing something, but it seems that my phone is on KK2(after 8107 Zune installed "Samsung update") and interop unlocked.

I guess that since my Omnia W is on the KK7 firmware, it won't work for me. Gonna try the reboot thing to see if that works.

Guys, we found a way how to flash a ROM with an open one.
But we need these files, that are not free:

[Q] HOW TO Backup a htc titan rom??

Hi I have HTC (Ultimate) Titan. I want to install a custom firmware. But to have more security, I wanted to do a full backup of my firmware, if I do not like or something goes wrong in the update. My carrier is VIVO in Brazil.
EX: export my firmware to the *. cab or *. nbh
Pleaaaaaase Help MEEEEEE!!!!
My system: wp7.5 MANGO
OS : 7.10.7720.68
firmware : 1600.2200.10701.519
radio software : 16.23.02.09_2_16.24.00.23U
There is a thread here on how to do a full backup
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1346276
you may want to give that a try (i havent tested myself but i plan on trying it out this evening)
If it works is it possible to get a copy of your backup - i dont want any of your information but a lot of people are buying the at&t titan unlocked and none of us can get tethering working because at&t locked it down - your brazil ultimate is the same hardware but it is unbranded so if we can get your software on our titans it should solve the at&t lockdown issue for us.
---------- Post added at 07:04 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:02 PM ----------
also do you think you could post the brazil ultimates radio hardware version # and bootloader #?
Hey averma Thanks. I'll try it.
Sure, I'll help you guys. I am not very familiar with phones from HTC and mainly WP7. But I'll try my best to help.
Well my Radio Hard. Version - 2.26.0.D4
Bootloader - 1.7.160015.3(131559)
Once again thank you for your help.
How do you want to install the custom ROM, when there is no option to unlock the device? Where do you want to take it?
I've made it averma. I restored the system as did the original backup. Do you need the files?
Petulinek My device is unlocked . By chevron and by My carrier. Do i need another unlock?

You need bootloader unlock and custom ROM for flash.. And it doesnt exist for new Mango devices like Titan or Radar now...

1. i think there is no unlock for omnia w because it has diagnosis ver 1109 which makes interop unlock impracticable (i hope temporary)
2. i've bought it for 6600CZK == 326USD
Hi,
I've bought mine online via Allegro (polish analogue site for eBay) for 1000 zł, which is an aquivalent to about 285 US dollars. I was wondering about any way to unlock this phone to be able to install .xap files too, and today I've tried the Window Break project. It works, and now I can install any .xap file I want from the forums etc.
Unfortunately this is not as popular az HTC Windows Phone smartphones, and there are no custom ROMs available for download for now. We have to wait I think.
Indiaplaza sold initially for 16.9K (India only). Now it's selling at 18.4K,, but i can still get it for you @ 16.9K. PM me if you are from India

I read it somewhere, that we should bring up diagnostic tool before applying the update and the utility will update, this however worked for omnia 7 but not for Omnia W. In case anyone thought of trying it, then please don't, I've tested it so and the version retains 1109. NO UPDATE

I guess you mean jail-break. Unlock usually means change of operator.

Why isn't there a section for the Omnia W like the other phones?
Oh well i'm kinda new to this WP7 thing, but i managed to unlock mine via windowbreak, so now i can sideload xap files, idk if this is what you mean by jailbreaking. It's all i need for now tho

Hi,
How did you do it? I tried all the steps for windowbreak but the windowbreak option doesn't show up on grps menu in diagnostics app.
What version is your diagnostics app? Mine is 1104
Weird, I have the same version and the latest firmware installed (7740). It worked just fine for me...
Mine say 7.10.7740.16
Is this the same as yours?
Yep, it's the exact same, that's weird...i wonder what else is messing...
I am a developer (student account). Maybe that is problem? I dont really know how the interop unlock by windowbreak works.
I unlocked my Omnia 7 (free!) on this site:
http://windowsphonehacker.com/windowbreak/
Worked like a charm on OS version 7.10.8107.79. I had to reboot the device after the unlock. After that, I could sideload xaps, start and debug .NET software with Visual Studio 2010, and so on.
I think it's time the Omnia W gets it's own section, or the Omnia 7 section is renamed to "Omnia 7 / W".

Marshmallow for 6 plus pe-ul00?

Hi guys. Are there any news about official marshmallow for the chinese version of Honor 6 plus? I'm talking about the pe-ul00. On the emui site the last stable version is b351(lollipop) and the last beta is from january. Right? The only update that seems available is that I can find by hicare app. It's the B550. Is it marshmallow? Is it stable or a beta?
I'd like to update but I think nothing official came out. Do you have some informations?
Thanks guys
Same problem over here - I have Honor 6 Plus running EMUI3.1_PE-UL00_6.1.1 Lollipop and no updates since the beginning of 2016 Neither using the Updater app, nor anywhere on the Internet. What's up Huawei?
There could be an update, but my chinese is too bad . Take a look: club .huawei.com /forum.php? mod=viewthread&tid=7478881& highlight= PE-UL00
Maybe someone can translate...
Chinese forum: ]club.huawei.com/ search.php? mod=forum&searchid=13822243&orderby=lastpost& ascdesc=desc&searchsubmit =yes&pa ge=2

Anyone see this problem before?

No, I am still running 6.1.8 beta with no problem. Maybe you can describe in detail from which build you started updating, which builds you used and what you have done step by step.
Did you try a factory reset from the service menu?

This is what i have done:
1) I'm updating the OS from the old KitKat 4.4.2 (not sure which build since it is auto-update with EMUI 3.0)
2) Then i try to update it to Marshmallow (the 2nd link from collinsc/KKF32; http: //pan. baidu .com/share /link?shareid =5380194 66&uk= 309376 3556)
3) It is then the nightmare started. Phone updated but somehow could not boot. Press the [Volume down + Power button], it shows the Android mascot with a caption mentioning that "Phone Locked"
So, i did a further research and found that my phone is bricked!!. And i found a discussion in this forum teaching how to reverse brick from DigiGoon (http://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-6/help/honor-6-plus-pe-tl10-wont-charge-boot-t3404687).
My problem(s) and question right now are:
1) I do not have the bootloader unlocked code. In order to get it, i will need to go to the Huawei EMUI e-mail to them the EMEI and S/N# to get it but I am still waiting for it until now. Is there anyway i can get it like RIGHT AWAY???
2) Also, can i use the latest "trustable" Android firmware (e.g. EMUI3.1_Android5.1)?
Sorry for the long details but hope that you kind a get what I am facing right now and probably recommendations on what to do next.
Sigh....

This is what i have done:
1) I'm updating the OS from the old KitKat 4.4.2 (not sure which build since it is auto-update with EMUI 3.0)
2) Then i try to update it to Marshmallow (the 2nd link from collinsc/KKF32; http: //pan. baidu .com/share /link?shareid =5380194 66&uk= 309376 3556)
3) It is then the nightmare started. Phone updated but somehow could not boot. Press the [Volume down + Power button], it shows the Android mascot with a caption mentioning that "Phone Locked"

If you have a Huawei id and also know the product id alongwith IMEI or S/N of your phone, you can get it online from Huawei website. Just Google unlocking Huawei bootloader.
You can use any stock firmware but the latest one is the best.

Nope. I didn't have the product ID.
That's the missing piece since I couldn't type the *#*#1357946#*#* code since the phone is already bricked right now.
Is there any other way to get the bootloader unlock code? Anyone?

I am not sure whether it will work or not but head to
http://rootjunkysdl.com/?device=Huawei P8 Lite
And download Huawei ID generator.exe
May be it can help you to generate a device id.
Head to Huawei P8 lite folder and you can find Huawei product ID generator.exe there.
Hope it helps. Let us know here if it is legit.

Then give this thread a try. It says it's for Huawei honor 6 but may work for your phone. Again let us know, how did it go.

Please be sure that you want to do this. I can not download and check it myself as I am not near a PC. Anything you do to your phone is your responsibility so please be careful.

1. It seems there is a general unlock code too for all huawei phones, maybe it will work for you. Give it a try.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2666116
The same is described here, but it is in german: http ://www.huaweiblog. de/allgemein/ general-bootloader-unlock-fuer-alle-huawei-phones/
2. And for the second question, the official 5.1 ROM worked fine for me, so just use it. http ://emui.huawei. com/plugin /hwdownload /detail?modelId=127
(from android 5.1 (build 6.1.1) I updated manually to android 6.0 (build 6.1.8 beta) and it still runs fine for me.)
I've updated the final Lollipop version 6.1.1 to 6.1.8 (Marshmallow) - all OK, works fine, no double tap to wake..
However, I can't get past that version - updating to 6.1.16 seems to pass OK, however I see no change in the version number or any other differences. Of course, checking for newer SW tells me there is none.. any idea how to get more recent Marshmallow builds? BTW, see https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UgqDVmaEmYQ on how to d/l from Baidu, worked for me..

[Help] SM-G955U ATT (Unlocked)

Hi guys, i've been a guest for many years and always i was able to accomplish what i wanted thanks to all the good tutorials and the ROMs that you make and everything, thanks. But, today i'm out of luck and i hope that any of you can help me.
My Galaxy S8+ was on AT&T and i had to change carrier so i unlocked the phone. Right now i'm under MetroPCS but i find that i dont get more updates. I started to search how to get them and got in some threads were i learned to install stock ROMs with ADB but still without success. Actually, my phone right now is with an older version of software.
The android security patch that i had was from July, i have March 1, 2017.
I found the (supposed) OTA files but when i try to install i get error in the installation.
Someone can tell me the right way to make the firmware upgrade?
Android version 7.0 / Samsung experience version 8.1 / Android security patch level March 1, 2017 / Baseband Version G955USQU1AQC9.
I feel like c9 was a mistake or base FW i Also Have A Att S8+ Unlocked i remmember that when i bout it it updated just cant remmember to what but i Flashed The G955u DE Fw and it updates no problem
Maybe this thread can help u get the answer

Switch to the unlocked firmware and use the most recent update.

Yes, this was the solution. I had to pay for a new AT&T prepaid simcard ($10 usd), activate the device online and then change the date a couple of times until i get the August update. Thank you.

You'll gain more than you lose that way and of course no AT&T splash screen.

Here's the latest firmware make sure it says XAA and AQH3.

is this the end ?

So after Huawei's last decision about bootloader,
Is this the end of modding for people who didn't request the unlock code before ?
Can we root this device w/o unlocking bootloader?
Is there any 3rd party way or such to get the unlock code, similar to Huawei modems unlocking websites code generator ??
Yes you can but you have to pay for the unlock code from special websites .

I checked dc-unlocker, but they didn't list mya-l22 = y5 2017 in supported devices webpage.
Did you tried any service??

I could find the key they where talking about but don't know how to decrypt it.. very sad : /
yeah, +the attached files cannot be downloaded there, perhaps someone can provide an unlocked stock firmware for sp flashtool or clear steps and fix files for all y5 users
ItThere is an alternative way to unlock your bootloader but its a bit hard ,
Any trust me it doesn't matter for now,
All custom roms have bad performance i tested all pfy them.
As for rooting will good luck with that ?
