XAPs aren't actually stored on the phone, any more than the "setup.exe" you run off a CD or from a website is stored with the installed app. However, it is probably possible to reconstruct the XAP if you have a root-unlocked or full-unlocked phone. For the Lumia 710, that means you need to be running a custom bootloader; are you?

Does anyone know why exactly this doesn't work post mango. I have read it's because of the interop flag, but TouchXplorer still works. So is it just a matter of recompiling it or will we have to wait for another program that can access the themes and set sounds to anything?
Its the interaction of the program with the system and registry and would require recoding once schaps knows how to integrate it. It is not as simple as changing a line. Cheers

I figured as much. Best we can do is wait then.

It's not the "interaction"... The main reason is: Mango beta (and so on!) disables support of unsigned COM-bridge back door. So, the only manufacturer's signed dll's are supported now (but not mix of homebrew/different manufacturers etc.) And you should have at least a jailbraked version of WP7 (developer's unlock is not enough!).

I know it's fairly simple process (if nothing goes wrong), but if possible, i would appreciate if someone can confirm if i understand prerequisites:
1) phone name in Zune must be unique.
I hate that kinda, but ok.
2) i need to have WP SDK installed.
Is that that huge install of a couple of GBs?
I would give a link, but download center keeps redirecting to some windows server update
3) chevron unlock tool
Am i missing something?
Again, i know there is FAQ on chevron, but it's thin on SDK part.
1) Best to ask them on Twitter @chevronwp7 or @WithinRafael.
2) Download the Support Tools or the SDK from here ( 14 Mb Each )
32-bit system, download the WPSupportToolv2-x86.msi package.
64-bit system, download the WPSupportToolv2-amd64.msi package.
3) chevron unlock tool is cheaper solution but if you need to put your apps in Market place you need App Hub Account
Chevron Tool basically uses The SDK and Zune to communicate with WP to unlock.
Let me know if you have more questions. I have written a tutorial on how to do it and it includes a bit length video if you want it.
Thanks alot!
Lol I though that I will have my phone inter-op unlocked after buying the token key.
What am i missing if i don't have interop?
If so you are not able to deploy apps that need root permissions such as wp7 root tool etc, apps that needs access to registry, write are not permitted

So i might miss out on some "more advanced" homebrew apps?
Do you maybe have concrete examples?
the reason i'm interested in unlocking is, and i'm not ashamed to admit it, to pirate apps from marketplace.
WP has been on the market where i live (Croatia) almost right from the start, and i've been an early adopter (got my omnia in feb). And there is still not a mention of when paid marketplace and various other services will be available.
Also, because i had to create another live account registered to UK and use it as my main phone account (for free marketplace access), my office hub is empty, and there are no skydrive photo albums in pictures hub, since all of them are on the live account i actually use, and not on this token i had to create. I missing out on great features.
With that in mind, do i need interop unlock for marketplace apps?
Hello, I have the last Windows Phone 7.5 Mango version on my HTC HD7 (without internet sharing but with hidden wifi support) and now it's unlocked with Chevron WP7 Unlocker (I unlocked it starting from the first build, then upgrading to NoDo and at the end to Mango) and it's now percfectly unlocked. I'm a student and I'm going to register me at the Microsoft App Hub via Dreamspark. My question is if after that, I can deploy an infinity number of app yet (like I can do now with Chevron Unlock) or if my apps max will be 10. (If this, how can I remove this limit?)
Sorry for my English but it's not my mother language.

For time being the limit is 10.If you are on dreamspark you can only have 3 apps right?Wait till someone able to to use interop-unlock for htc device then we can have more than 10 apps.You can go to other thread regarding htc interop-unlock.
But when someone will be able to use interop-unlock for my HTC, I can use my developer account AND install more than the limit of apps? (together)
uhm the interop-unlock is automatically made by the WP Core when you are allowed to install more than 300 apps. If you unlocked your Phone with Chevron there is no Need for you to reunlock it with the official tool
Thanks for the answer, I didn't know this thing about interop-unlock. So now that I have Chevron unlock with infinity apss and Mango update, if I register to Microsoft App Hub, will change something about my current Chevron unlock with infinity number of apps? Or this limit will be removed by my official developer account?

No You cannot use the Chevron unlocked phone with Microsoft App Hub and Vice versa. If you have it unlocked via Chevron and want to use it with App Hub you need to contact them and get your phone remove from the list and vice versa
Chevron Uses an Official Method to unlock your phone but it is cheaper as MS does not give you access to Resources and does not allow you to upload files to Marketplace.
Check the FAQ
The Apps that you deploy are not linked to the account at all. You can develop 20 applications with any official unlock account (Student or normal) but you can only deploy the amount of apps the account is designed to. OEMs are officially interop unlocked and so they are able to use System dlls in their apps.
so short version: you can have an interop unlocked device based on any unlock (Chevron wp7, Chevron labs, Student unlock, developer unlock) and still get your apps into the marketplace (dozens of them but i think there is a Limit of 10 apps per week so you don't flood the marketplace with spam apps)
Thanks a lot for the answers. So in my case can I register at App Hub with a different Windows Live ID than my Phone WL ID, keeping my phone Chevron unlocked?

So I stumbled on this thread via Google but I still don't understand anything. I currently have a student unlock. This lets me deploy 3 apps to the phone at a time. Will using ChevronWP7 Labs allow me to deploy more than that or no?

with chevronwp7 unlock you can only use max 10 apps only but you need to deactivate your student account as in the above post.
I also just came across this thread. But it's confusing me
I have a student developer unlocked device....how many apps can I sideload onto my phone?

Okay so with Chevron I can do 10 apps instead of 3. And I assume by "deactivate" you mean just delete my phone from my device list on App Hub. That shouldn't be an issue as far as App Hub because I used to submit apps before I even had a phone. I guess the real question is, can I build and test apps to the phone with a Chevron unlock the same way I did with my student unlock?

Hello,
I bought a new windows phone (the Lumia 800) and i unlocked about a year ago my old wp7 with chervonWP7.
now when i am trying to unlock lumia 800 i always get an error that says that i need to connect my device to zune and blablalbla....
The only reason that i want to unlock my Lumia 800 it's because i want to install a keypad with my Language (Hebrew).
There is a way that i can add the keypad to my device without unlocking my device and how can i solve the problem.
Thank you.
I dont think that you can install a app like that without a unlock.
Dev-unlock is available for all devices, if you get an AppHub account. However, I believe adding or modifying a keyboard requires registry modification, so you'd need interop-unlock for that. Currently, only a few Lumia 800s can be interop- or full-unlocked (it depends on which bootloader they have). More info: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1587650
I tried to install gun bros this morning and halfway thru the installation it freezes
After reseting the phone, i cannot access the following
Zune
Marketplace
Settings (barely) --> cannot go into factory reset
xbox live
Camera (barely - take a photo and it gets stuck)
Internet (barely - cant access favorite)
ALL THIRD PARTY APPS ==> CANNOT ACCESS
The following still works
People
Picture
Messaging
methods tried
1. Sync with pc - see if it automatically fixes = no
- cannot sync media
- cannot access backup
- shows the following error message when syncing
http://www.zune.net/en-AU/support/w...help_originalid=C00D124D&webhelp_locale=en-AU
2. Switched battery, took out the sim card
I am not updated to Tango yet.
Is there anyway other than hard reset this phone? T_T
Does anyone know if you factory reset a phone, can it still go back to using the old backups?
Yes, you can still restore from backups after a hard reset. I've done it a few times on a couple of different handsets.
What model of phone is it?
Have you installed your own SD card in it (replacing the built-in one or adding your own, depending on model)?
Have you been messing with it in any hacky way (for example, do you have WP7 Root Tools installed, or have you flashed a custom ROM)?
Mozart 7 - chevron unlocked
No custom sd or rom
I ended up resetting it and return to my old backup. But now I don't have tether update anymore from HTC and the only update I keep receiving is tango... And I don't want to update to tango because I will lose my chevron unlock!
The frustration sigh..

Do you mean ChevronWP7 Labs unlock, or the original Chevron Unlocker hack? If you've managed to carry the unlock hack forward this far (i.e. to Mango), you must have already interop-unlocked your phone. In that case, your best bet is to use WP7 Root Tools and follow the instructions on WindowsPhoneHacker about how to upgrade to Tango without your phone connecting to Microsoft to validate its unlock status. Even if you don't have WP7 Root Tools installed right now, your firmware version may now be compatible after you restored that backup.
If you have a Chevron Labs unlock, then you also now have a free AppHub account for official developer unlock, and that will give you the same amount of unlock access as Chevron Labs unlock does.
Lol I'm on chevron original unlock! Carried till latest mango with no interop unlock! I know that after 1 of the HTC update I couldn't use the registry editor anymore.
My current problem is that I restored to a backup without tethering, and I can't get that update anymore because I keep receiving the tango update instead
Sent from my 7 Mozart T8698 using XDA Windows Phone 7 App
All of the published ways to carry your original Chevron unlock forward to Mango also included interop-unlock (which is just the removal of the app sideloading limit), although you may not have known that.
I repeat, what firmware version are you on right now? Also, even if it doesn't *work*, can you at least launch the registry editor app? The answer to the first question will tell me how many HTC updates you have currently (and therefore what hacks can be used). The answer to the second will tell me whether or not you are, in fact, interop-unlocked (if you can launch apps like Registry Editor at all, regardless of whether they work, you're interop-unlocked).
Um ur actually talking to the same person on the mango interop unlock thread... Lol
OS version:
7.10.8107.79
Firmware revision number
2250.21.50001.707
Radio software version
5.69.09.05a_22.50.50.21U
Bootloader version
5.12.2250.5(139188
U pointed out it is 50001 already so it should be v2
But I replied that I have never applied the interop hack and I DO have access to registry editor still right now
Thank you for your responses, hopefully I'm not confusing u too much.

The hack to carry your Chevron unlock forward to Mango *is* an interop unlock. There's many ways to apply the hack; the one you're probably thinking of is special only because it works for people who are already on Mango and didn't prepare their phones in any way beforehand.
That said, your firmware version is too high, as you say. If you don't downgrade that somehow, you won't be able to install WP7 Root Tools and therefore will lose your hacked unlock when you upgrade to Mango.
