[Q] Problem with ChevronWP7 when unlocking Samsung Focus Flash - Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have a Samsung Focus Flash, and I was hoping to install some apps that are not found on the marketplace.
So I have followed the procedure found at
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=938106
But, I get this error:
View attachment 953887
The connection is good, and zune is running. Nothing with HTTPS process is running either. Please help.

That thread is extremely outdated. A trivial search online would show you that the ChevronWP7 Unlocker hasn't worked in about a year (ever ince NoDo came out). There's no pre-NoDo ROM for your phone (since it didn't even exist in 2010), so you can't use it.

Thanks for the reply. I had no idea. So is there an alternative in installing xap files?

[Q] samsung diagnostic app on NoDo

Hey, I can't the Diagnostic app back for my samsung focus after updating to NoDo (through zune). I dial the number and it times out and cannot complete request. I wonder, since it IS an app and can be updated through zune if it can be extracted and then uploaded in xap form(if this can't be done then don't worry, I DO have registry access which can do 75% of what diagnostic can do) but I was just wondering if it COULD be done or if anyone else experienced this
You may want to reboot your device and try again. If that doesn't work and your device is developer unlocked you can try to sideload the app. It can be found here.

Thank you very much that is what I was looking for

[Q] Can't get my Diagnosis App to Update [Omnia 7]

Hi,
I'm trying to maintain a jailbroken phone through the Mango update via the following method:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1152422
My only trouble, is that I haven't been able to update my Diagnosis app.
It's on 0.922, which will not allow the xml files to be found.
I have tried uninstalling and then hitting "##634#" but each time, it only brings back the same 0.922 app.
I am also unable to find it in the marketplace.
I am currently running OS 7.0.7392 - and Zune tells me there are no further updates (not sure what 7932 is?).
Can anyone help?
Cheers.
I'm having the same problem. I was on 7390 with 0.922 and couldn't update it, so just updated to 7392 and it's still on 0.922 (have tried uninstalling and reinstalling it with no luck either).
There are a few other solutions I've yet to have tried, but it's not looking likely so far...
Note: In regards of this "If your phone is updated to 7392 with the OEM registry information (ATT-US) deleted, the Diagnosis won't be updated." - I think I had deleted the registry while on 7390 (I'm with 3, not AT&T), but I'm not sure how to re-add it. Re-flashing maybe? Though it'll be a pain adding everything back.
How would you have deleted the registry?
I'm from Australia, so my phone was bough on Optus, but is now unlocked on 3.
I can't remember exactly but it's something to do with the SamsungRegistry tool I used when first unlocking my phone. I vaguely remember reading a STRING value and then overwriting it as a blank value.
I was following a guide very closely but now I can't remember what it was for so I can't find it to undo it.

I remembered it seems like HKLM\System\Platform\DeviceTargetingInfo\MobileOperator, maybe you can have a try.
it is heard that if the WP7 updated to mango, the Diagnosis will be upgraded too. I don't know whether it is true. Or you can flash another ROM, such as DTMJJ6, I'm using it and it works well.
hello
i have the same problem , cant update the diagnosis. i tried everithing , but nothing works.
i installed the 7720 mango rtm , and there is no update for diagnosis so far )
i think the only way is flashing another rom.
the DTMJJ6 will update the diagnosis ? is this an branded rom ? 7004 ?
Edit : DTMJJ6 is not an public rom.(samfirmware) what about the november rom?
EDIT2 ": the november rom contains the 1027 versin of diagnosis app .. it works.. its unbranded too..
thanks for all

That sounds great! Do you think you'd be able to give a link to where you got the November rom from? And if you can a tutorial on how to flash it. Those two would be very much appreciated as I can't seem to find them (or don't know what to search for)
Edit: Found it, thanks very much! Hopefully I'll now be able to update to Mango without losing my unlock.

[Q] Samsung Omnia W (update 8107) and ICS

Hello,
I have a Samsung Omnia W interop unlocked before getting the latest update from zune.
I am trying to get internet sharing through this guide:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1334248
but when I type the *#0998# code in the diagnosis app, no list comes, so I cannot proceed further with the guide.
Here are my phone software versions:
SO: 7.10.8107.79
firmware: 2424.11.12.5
hardware: 23.15.0.8
software radio: 2424.11.12.1
hardware radio: 0.0.0.800
bootloader: 5.12.29.0
processore SOC: 0.74.2.1
Can anyone help me getting ICS on my phone ?
Thanks a lot.
ICS?????
what's that mean
ICS: Internet Connection Sharing. It's OK though, there's absolutley no possible way you could have figured that out from the link in the OP, and nobody has ever used that acronym for the feature before... </sarcasm>
It sounds like you either updated your firmware or your DIAG app since you interop-unlocked the phone. If it was a firmware update, you'll need to roll back or you'll need to wait until somebody writes a tool that allows you to process the provxml file using Root Unlock (I assume you have WP7 Root Tools). If you updated the app itself (via Marketplace), uninstall it and then re-install it using the phone dialer.

Thanks a lot for the uninstalling Diagnosis tip!
I did i and now I can see again the list of things, also windowbreak is there.
So, I will try the guide from scratch this evening at home and let you know.
Thanks a lot for taking time to help me, its really appreciated.

Hello,
I tried but the "System tweaks" does not show up in the list, so I am unable to go ahead...
Any clues ?
You probably installed a Samsung firmware update (see the other item in my list of reasons why it wouldn't work). If your firmware version is KK2 or newer, you won't be able to use those hacks. Roll the phone back if you want to use it.
Alternatively, these are just provxml files. WP7 Root Tools won't currently process them for you directly, but it's pretty easy to write an app that will do so for you if it has WP7 Root Tool "trusted" elevation via policy.
Thanks,
atm I think that I will try to look inside the provxml files which enables ICS and try to manually edit my phone registry to see if it works. It seems to me the most reasonabe way, also because all those provxml are built for Omnia 7 while I own an Omnia W.

CAB Sender errors

8018004D, is the error I get when I try updating through CAB Sender.
I'm already on the newest update, Mango, but according to heathcliff, my rom and samsung firmware was too old, so I needed it anyway, but well that's not really working. My device is Interop unlocked, but the Rooting will not work because "my device is not supported, whilst I'm on an Omnia 7.
I got kk2 update, so i flashed back to november 2010 or something liked that, than update to mango, unlocked it, and it updated through zune, without me really noticing ... But well Rooting is the problem here... and the CAB sender
Who can help me out?

did you successfully updated it? Im having problem with my zune, coz it says, "cannot check updates at this time". they might be preparing an update. but... still not sure if i will still keep my phone. Maybe i will sell it later.
Use the cab sender method. It worked great for me.
So I used the disconnect internet trick and got Tango to install on my phone. Problem is, it stopped with the 3 updates and did not install (or find) the Samsung one that I know was supposed to be installed (for firmware), so my firmware is now 2103.11.10.1 instead of what it is supposed to be.
Does anyone know a way to force the OEM firmware to be sent to Zune. The internet disconnect trick isn't work now, so I'm stuck. Also, my backups aren't showing up, even though during the update process it said it was creating a backup (for all the OS updates it installed all the way up to 8773).
If there is no way to get the OEM firmware to be pushed, does anyone know how to get the Focus Flash to stock? I know I have a backup on my computer, but Zune isn't recognizing it (I had forced 8107 on my phone, and Zune made a backup of that ROM).

im getting this error
Error: The installed version of ZuneWMDU (4.8.2345.0) doesn't match the tool ver

Top tip!
Hi,
Just reset your phone, format it and then go on with setting up your windows live id. Once fully synchronised, then switch over to zune and go to settings and press forget this phone, after which just connect your phone and you'll get all the updates steady!
Worked well for my Omnia W here at Dubai.

Just Get the TANGO Update....... (Samsung omnia w{DEV UNLC})
There is no reason to update Omnia W, ver 8107 already have all the things, at least unbranded versions.
Next step for Omnia W is 7.8
