Hi,
I'm considering purchasing the android dev phone since I'm not on the t-mobile network and need the phone w/o a contract. I'm aware that the latest version of the dev phone allows you to install paid apps, but not locked apps.
My question is, is there any way to convert my dev phone to an (unlocked) t-mobile image so that it will support paid and locked apps?
Please excuse me in case my question hasn't been framed properly or if it has been asked before, I'm new to these forums and the whole G1 bit.
Thanks in advance.
I'm also curious about a similar question, which is precisely the opposite:
I have a Tmobile phone, running JF1.42. If I change my firmware to ADP1.1, is that going to cause me to not be able to view locked apps on the market?
If you purchase the Android Developer Phone, yes you can flash it to the T-Mobile firmware (search forums for downgrading to RC29 using DREAIMG.NBH and etc) and no, this will not affect your unlock. The unlock is at a separate level (research baseband, and cellphone unlocking).
If you change your T-Mobile G1 to the ADP1 image, yes, you will lose paid apps in the market. Google is blocking the ADP images from accessing the paid apps. (from what i've been told this is done through a user-agent check, and not device id, although i could be wrong).
Hope this helps you guys out
Only protected Apps are not accessible by Dev phones.
Not all paid Apps are protected, only few paid Apps are protected.
As you can see from my sign., I have a T-Mobile G1 phone with a mod Dev firmware. I can buy applications, however, I can't even see protected Apps.
One more question based on this. I've been reading through the forums and I've read that the dev phone comes with a DEV SPL. So basically I wanted to clarify that, the SPL doesn't matter if it is DEV/HARD. I can install the RC33 image by doing the whole RC29 downgrade, etc?
Probably way off here, but if anyone can point me in the right direction. Basically what I'm trying to do is, purchase a dev phone, get the latest rc series on it (and hopefully receive OTA updates). Or is getting OTA updates a bad idea? and I should continue to manually update the image as and when new ones are released?
Thanks in advance.
hi all i just got my htc hd 7 i want to know what benefits unlocking will bring to me + i read about touch explor and windows decive manager from where and how to download these?
thanks in advance
I think Unlocking is not important in my opinion because the available app outside Marketplace are not good app, as you register your credit card in Zune, you can buy very nice app and games better than those outside marketplace.
A very important reason to stay locked is to have the latest radio and firmware versions, but unlocking makes you with old ones.

that's a bold statement. firmware or radio versions have nothing to do with UnlockState.
if you want to configure your phone beyond what's possible natively, there are a few apps that can be sideloaded that allow you to do what the NoDo OS for example cannot do, only two here. a) changing accent colors, b) adding your own ringtones.
Schaps has his own website with a forum and download section. If you google it you won't need much time to find it.
Hello,
wholly, the fact of unlock the WP7 allows to put some programs such as accent etc her personify sound wp7

As a Mozart user, I can not unlock the device with the latest Radio and Firmware, So I miss the camera update and loading speen which are important additions to me
Adding ringtones are not important because the internal ones are very nice.
Also changing the color and editing the device system may cause my system to be unstable.
Just an opinion.
Sorry for my English.
Actually it's up to the individual,some might stick to lock phone some might not.The best for those who unlock is that they can explore what their phone can do just like win mobile 5 to 6. and they can do the same as lock phone ie: update etc. so on and so forth.
Just my 2 cents.
On Focus we're getting the Diagnosis 1.9.0.0 update.
Any other Samsung phones getting the update from Marketplace?
I'm wondering if this is another way of delivering the KK2...

I am wondering if changes made with a previous version will be retained after the update? Also, will there be access to all of the fields that were available in previous versions?
Ok, time to address some common misunderstandings:
Is this another way to get KK2?
No, that's quite literally impossible. Neither a running app, nor the app installer, can modify the ROM. KK2 is a firmware update, which is part of the ROM. The ROM can't be updated while the OS is running.
Is this going to revert existing changes?
No, that's incredibly unlikely. Hypothetically, it could make some specific changes, some of which (like setting MaxUnsignedApp to 10) might be bad... unless you're on a student account and you MaxUnsignedApp is supposed to be 3 (or something else similar). There's no way to just "revert" the changes though, short of forcibly hard-resetting your phone.
Is it going to break existing apps?
No. Interop apps rely on OEM drivers, which are in the firmware. As mentioned before, an app (or app update) is completely incapable of modifying this.
Is this going to break the ability to use WindowBreak and similar hacks in the future?
It's possible that it will, yes. All that would be required is to remove the user interface for sending provisiioning files to the driver. However, it's more likely that they will rely on the KK2 update to do that... although it's no guarantee.
since today i also have a notification on my omnia7 with v1.9.0.0.
not updated yet.
Propagating the info from Focus thread (thanks ZeBond):
The new Samsung Diagnostics app attempts to block GPRS profile switching (provisioning)
Works for me
I was already interop and WP7 Token unlocked, upgraded to 8107 by cab sender method, upgraded to current Diagnosis and *#9908# works for me and I can still sideload xaps.
The update showed up for me a few days ago but I haven't updated it yet.
Strange
I received the update on my Focus S (dev unlocked) and installed it. If I go into the diagnosis and put in #*9908# it closes the app... deleting it and and putting ##634# installs the old version. Ideas??
Yeah, don't install that update! Samsun have decided to remove that mode from the app. However, the original XAP (the one intalled via the dialer) is actually baked into the ROM of the phone, so removing the Marketplace-updated version and reinstalling the in-ROM xap gets you the un-updated version of the app...
So I live in Mexico and just bought a Focus Flash...
I tried to use it as a hotspot but I couldn't... My carrier supports tethering and it uses the same bands as at&t...
When I try to use the internet sharing options it shows a message saying that I have to call at&t...
Does anyone knows how to make this option work outside of the US?
Also, I have a similar problem when I try to use the samsung's video call app.
It shows a message saying my device isn't supported, is this also because I'm using it with a different carrier?
I hope someone can help, thanks! =)
If I can't find a solution for this, I'll probably start looking for roms from different countries to see if flashing it helps.
I don't know about the video call app. As for the other, however...
First of all, if you're using an AT&T ROM (which it sounds like you are) and you can find a way to flash an "International" ROM to it, I'd suggest you do that. AT&T puts a lot of restrictions on their phones that you, as a non-customer, have no reason to put up with (personally, I don't see any reason for their customers to put up with it either, but that's another issue).
Beyond that, if by some lucky chance your current firmware is compatible with WindowBreak, or at least you have a backup with old enough firmware, then yes, it is possible to strip out all of the limitations on the "Internet Sharing" feature. For one example, search the Dev&Hacking sub-forum for "Interop Unlock + Internet Sharing".
Beyond that... you'll either need to exchange your phone, find some other way around the problem (for example, you should be able to use wired tethering; it's unofficial but available for most if not all Windows phones if you know where to look), or wait until we find new hacks. Any of the following would work: a way to interop-unlock gen2 Samsung phones with current firmware (install WP7 Root Tools and use a provxml processing app), a way to flash a stock ROM to gen2 Samsungs (either replace your current ROM with an international one, or downgrade it to one that is compatible with WindowBreak), or a way to flash custom ROMs (which all come with this feature fully enabled).

Well... it was HAAARD D:
But I finally got to tango with tethering and it seems that I'll be able to get the last firmware update as well =D
So it is all good... I'm still using the at&t rom
I don't have video calls but I don't think I need them that much... If I want to have videochat I'll just use skype =)
Thanks for your answer, man =)
This rom was last updated on: [13-Oct-2012]
This post was last updated on : [13-Oct-2012]
This rom is ONLY for Spark_W, or the HTC Trophy 7 on Verizon Wireless. If your Trophy is for ANY other carrier or unbranded, this rom WILL NOT WORK on your device!
This rom requires DFT HSPL for First Generation Devices V3 to be installed. Please read this HOWTO for more information.
I am happy to announce the official testing phase of XevRev for Spark_W. XevRev is based on Dynamics7 1.21 for HTC Titan by ultrashot. This is not a straight port of Dynamics7, and it features a few slight changes to allow for better interaction with the Verzion OEM, and one significant upgrade over Dynamics7 1.21.
To read a full list of features, checkout ultrashot's thread for Dynamics 1.21 for HTC Titan!
The big features for Spark_W owners are as follows:
-FULLY PROGRAMMABLE! FACTORY RESET IS mostly SAFE TO PERFORM ON PHONE! For safety's sake until I complete some more of my own testing, do not program the phone until a few mins after you reach the tile screen. Default programing at first boot is currently disabled.
-ultrashot's Unlock V3, with newer version of Xap Deployer.
-Based on Verizon rom, not ported from Spark Euro.
Key differences between Dynamics7 vs XevRev:
-Xap Deployer has been updated to v1.1-upd1, this allows the rom to be fully programmed with full unlock. This includes if you factory reset! You do not need to program with a stock rom anymore! YOU SHOULD THANK (and donate as well!) ULTRASHOT FOR HIS HELP AND INPUT FOR KILLING THIS PAIN IN THE BUTT BUG ONCE AND FOR ALL!
OEM packages are still Verizon, minus bloat like Netflix, Photo Enhancer, and Slacker Radio.
Nokia theme as been removed, since it overwrote the Verizon OEM theme. I might add it back in before V1, but for now its gone and it won't be the default option if I do add it back in. Verizon's OEM packages are highly integrated vs the standard Spark Euro packages.
Only US English will be available during testing. I will add back all packs that come with rom (plus request) after testing is completed. Do not request a rom language in this thread, please private message me and I'll make sure it ends up in the International version. I most likely will make an Asian version of this rom too. *edit 13-Oct-2012* I still need Japanese and Korean packages, please private message me if you know where I can obtain them.
Removed Russian mail.ru packages. These will be added into an international version after testing is completed/. *edit 13-Oct-2012* I have decided to leave it permanently out since no one is complaining it isn't there.
[*]Wireless-N support is disabled like it is by default. Having it enabled was making my own wireless network go completely crazy, and it didn't appear to increase the connection speed of the phone.
Notes about incomplete and complete features in XevRev Beta 1:
Bazaar for WP7 will be added. I think its a handy thing to have pre-installed.
Reinstaller will be added, but it isn't a priority feature.
WP7 Root Tools will be added.
Last.fm will be added, but it isn't a priority feature.
SYS 8773 Tango booting is a priority for a V1 of the rom, but for now it has 8107 Mango.
SYS 8835 7.8 available.
Most drivers are Tango v1, but you can still run Zune update to get newest radio and finish driver upgrade. Official Verizon tethering and fixes the long standing bug of random mac addresses.
The tethering network unlock by JerryJiang is not included because I do not know what values it changes. Non-Verizon network users will still need to apply it to enable tethering. I plan to implement this into my rom soon.
Radio is included in rom, and it is forced to Mango v3's radio. I am doing this to insure that CMAS support remains intact, but also because there is no official Tango rom from Verzion online yet to create a flash-able radio from. If you want Tango v1 radio (recommended by many users), simply run Zune update to get newest HTC driver.
*note about Internet Sharing PLEASE READ*[Updated 1-OCT-2012]
If you are a Verizon subscriber and have a metered data plan.... you're good to go.
ALL VERIZON USERS WITHOUT OFFICIAL TETHERING PLAN MUST DO THE FOLLOWING!!
After programming the phone via *228, dial ##PST# on the dial pad. After service tools install/load, select PST=>edit=>type in unlock code: 000000, Select M.IP Default Profile, select DUN NAI, change value to from ##########@dun.vzw3g.com to ##########@vzw3g.com (the # signs represent your phone number that should remain!) and select ok, select save and reboot phone.
If you are using an unlocked SIM card to run on another carrier, go here and run the tethering unlock xap by JerryJiang.
Special Thanks!
I special thanks to all those who made this rom possible. feropont, ultrashot and hd2owner, you all rock! Without all of your hard work and efforts, none of this rom would be possible! A shout out to my buddy NuAngel once again, for getting me into rom cooking a few years back!

I'd like to thank tonbonz for pointing out that you can run the Zune update, and it will install the newest radio to the phone (along with the last two missing packages, HTC_NKDrivers and OEM_8x50_NK_SPARK_W). It's odd, because previous to updating the XIP almost all of the new drivers save those two, I wasn't able to install the HTC update (and the older drivers always flashed on roms like DFT and ansars until these newest drivers).
Perhaps one of the drivers doesn't like updating, and since its already updated, the update process skips it and moves on? I wonder if its the WIRELESS driver.... I could dig in and find out, but really... why should anyone care?! lol Now you can have full unlock, programming, and the newest radio too! WOOHOO!
Thanks for the share.. works great.
im try this rom. please add the turkish language

You installed RSPL and didn't flash HSPL? Interesting... but the idea of my rom is so that you don't need to flash a new one all the time. I'm going to explode an old method of SPL downgrade for our phones (this old old OLD rom that ansar posted ages ago) and see if HSPL is possible using that. If so, we won't need to flash our phones.
I think the update-able part may be caused by the fact that I used the Verizon Wireless driver instead of the Spark GSM driver like in DFT and ansar roms. Even though a kitchen like OSBuilder will swap the wireless driver when I OEM cab install, I don't think Windows Phone will if the carrier ID's don't match. I'm going to do some testing by back porting the WIRELESS drivers and see if that is why the OEM updates are not installing in other roms. It's also possible that another package was at fault because during my testing, until I mostly ported the drivers to the newest ones, the OEM cab update was failing on my rom too.
Frankly, I wouldn't have known the oem cabs were flashing if it wasn't for tonbonz earlier post in the general forum, because I had sort of given up on it, assuming that HTC or Microsoft has implemented some kind of change that didn't allow the updates to succeed. Rom's like DFT's had worked for updating in their pre-release phase, but it would remove internet sharing because the policies for internet sharing were contained in the WIRELESS package. Dynamics7 by ultrashot solved this by using a different package with just the internet sharing policies, that way they would remain even if the WIRELESS package was updated.
The problem came when Verizon changed their WIRELESS driver to be different from the default HTC one found on Spark GSM. Even if you implemented the polices with the Verizon driver, you still couldn't start the hotspot service up, it would produce an error. I tired all kinds of lamo hex editing tricks to see if I could enabled, but couldn't (and I assumed other rom cooks working on Spark_W did as well). We're really fortunate that Verizon decided to boost support for Windows Phone and allow for tethering out of box, as we now have a spiffy updated WIRELESS driver with no stupid random mac address bug.
Spark GSM rom cooks may be able to port the Verizon Wireless driver, and then use JerryJiang's fix to allow the hotspot driver to work on their phone. However, this might keep them from using OEM update as well. Perhaps exploring this HOTSPOT feature (as it doesn't seem to be configured in the registery) that JerryJiang found it what will eventually produce a method to fully policy unlock tethering on Spark GSM and allow a different package to keep that hot spot unlock in place, while allowing OEM.cabs to update all the drivers on the phone?
I'm going to work on implementing JerryJiang's patch into XevRev as a package (not his xap) this weekend (I hope). He sent me his source code and I am going to do some digging to see what I can find.

Yeah, i didn't install HSPL . . i wanted the bootloader to get updated through Zune . . after all, i now have what i wanted all along - an unlocked phone which allows me to install a few useful aps which are not available on the Microsoft Marketplace and full access to all the folders, internet sharing and Zune updates. Why should i want to install another custom ROM ever again? (Not that we are going to see many more updates for Windows 7.5 anyway!)
My only regret is that i wasn't able to keep my saved messages. If i try to use my save store.vol and pimindex.vol, my contacts list gets messed up. Never mind, small sacrifice.

I'm sure we're going to see 7.8 before end of life on this phone.. but Windows Phone 8 will be a completely different ball game.
I was thinking of the irony.. I couldn't release a custom rom until after we got the official tethering update... and the only reason I wanted HSPL on our phones was to have tethering.... derp. lol

you're forgetting, internet sharing still doesn't work out-of-the-box on the official rom, it requires Jerry Jiang's unlocker . . . so your custom rom is fully relevant

No, Internet sharing does work just fine... if you have Verizon service. If you are using a sim card to use a different provider, then that is a different story.
I'm not entirely sure that Verizon locked it down with the intention of not allowing the phone to use Internet Service on different providers (I mean, it wouldn't even work internationally either with its setup), but they locked it down simply to make DAMN sure that the people who are using it, are being monitored and metered by them.
Thankfully unlimited data users have a simple fix for it, as listed in my original post... although I'm not sure if its fully effective (there is a NAI setting in the original tethering setup as well that points to dun.blahblah...).

That's strange, do you have unlimited data or a tier plan? If you have a data cap, it should work with no mods. If you have unlimited data, you need to follow the instructions in my opening post, but you said you already did that.
And are you really using a Spark rom? This is a Spark_W rom. O-o;
Hmmm interesting, I like the idea of your rom, more like stock, but unlocked, and can get zune updates.
I'm currently use SolvZ's rom, and im really happy with it. I just got done posting in his thread about it. Funny because the only reason I want a ROM anymore is for customer colors. I don't even like the "no dehydrate" thing, it does weird things with my location when doing bing searches, it keep remembering the last location I was in and not clearing it and searching my current
When you get final out, I may give it a run. I have a upgrade waiting, so as soon as WP8 hits Verizon's stores bye bye good ol Trophy.

The ROM Im using now is DFT Freedom Spark_W V1 for Verizon. Internet sharing works.
Nice ROM you have here by the way. Id really stick with it, but I really need Internet sharing. Maybe ill try it again down the road since I think ill be stuck with my Trophy a little while longer. Not eligible for an update until early 2013.
I somehow screwed up my programming again I did a factory reset because I screwed up the contact list trying to restore my SMSes. I waited a few minutes after the reset to do the *228 programming as the initial post says, and although the programming said it was completed successfully and the 3G icon came up, none of my calls are completing. I get a few rings then the Verizon lady saying there was a problem completing my call.
Any ideas on how I can fix this almighty Xev? Last time I had to reactivate my old smartphone and then redo this one, but hopefully I don't have to go through that again?
Btw, I love the ROM. The right blend of stock and cool homebrew apps

Try programming one more time and reboot.. if that fails, switch to another compatible phone on the plan and switch right back. I had this issue crop up once, but it was odd because I didn't need to program the phone a 2nd time for it to start working ;. (Meaning, I switched the phone off the plan, and then put it right back on it)
If you program the phone from scratch again, try typing ##PST#, let service tools load up, THEN program via *228. I tired doing it both ways, during my testing with programming, but only had that issue crop up once (so I thought it was isolated to just me that one time.. hence me asking people to wait a few mins before programming). Did you try to program during initial setup (not sure if that option reset itself after after the new drivers install.. I haven't had time to check), or after the main screen came up? (sounds to me like you waited.. but I'm just waking up... urgh OT at work is killing me..)
