I want to use BB connect to get my email/etc pushed to my Kaiser. I set it up fine, but got a call from TechSupport saying only the BB 8700c is allowed after it reported back to them that I was using a Kaiser.
Anyone know a way to fake out the BB push server to make it think I am using a 8700c and not the Kaiser?
Thanks!~
That's nonsense. I'm using a Tilt on the Blackberry Enterprise Server. Maybe the aren't aware that the Tilt has BB service?
Anyway, try downloading the BB connect desktop software. From there you can configure your device automatically to connect.
that's not the issue.
To the OP,
do you have BlackBerry Connect? Or BlackBerry Connect with PDA Connect?
Because if you just have Blackberry Connect, AT&T's Policies say that you must have the PDA Connect and Blackberry Connect package to use the blackberry on a non RIM device. I know it's stupid. I know just using Blackberry Connect will work ( I'm doing it too ). But it's AT&T's policies.
Also, re-check your OLAM and see if they removed or added any feature after calling you. Sometimes the system will red-flag and attach the pda connect feature. If you got a call just by using it, not by calling, then your account was most likely flagged by the system.
I think he has BB Connect and it works fine for him, but his corp is telling him to use only the corp issued BB 8700c.
I'd like to figure this out as well.
Even if you manage to "cloak" your device now, I'm pretty sure your IMEI gets sent along with the rest of your device information.
If you suddenly start using a "Blackberry 8700c" with the same IMEI as your Kaiser, they may smell a rat (of course, they may never notice).
I have a similar issue. I cant use 3 live stream because my device is identyfied as a tytn and not as a nokia crap phone... anyone had luck in changing id in explorer?
I think there's a reason if your corp admin only allow genuine Blackberry devices.
Ie. even if you get the Blackberry connect, your Kaiser won't be able to remotely wipe itself in case you loose it ...
(so that make perfect sense to me)

Yes, I created a cab file to identify my phone as an N95 so that I could use Vodafone Live. Someone on the Modaco forum mentioned that it also worked for "3", though I can't confirm that myself.
Here's a copy. You can install it to identify the phone as an N95, and uninstall it to go back to normal...
Should also mention that for Vodafone Live, you have to be connected via the "Contract WAP" connection. Vodafone Live wont let you in if you're connected with the "Contract Internet" connection, I have no idea whether "3" do something similar though?

Hey
Great - THX. I will subscribe to 3tv next week and see if this fine piece make it all the way. Will be back with experience as this could be quite a solution for all 3 Mobile users...
Interesting sub69...I was wondering myself if this is possible. Do you know how people could identify their PDA's as other phone models so as to try and by-pass operator service restrictions? I'm hoping to identify my Kaiser as either a Sony Ericsson K790 or LG TU720 Shine.

First you have to find the user agent string for the device you want your Kaiser to be identified as (I have an N95, so I used it to go to www.useragentstring.com).
Then you need to hex edit your Kaiser's "browser.dll" file (which you'll find in the \Windows folder). You need to search within "browser.dll" for the Kaiser's original user agent string, and then overwrite it with the one of your choice.
Edit the regirsty at: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\Internet Explorer\User Agent] so that that shows the new string too.
Save the new "browser.dll" file to \Windows (overwriting the old one) and soft reset. Then when you go to www.useragentstring.com, you should see that your Kaiser is identifying itself as something else.
If you want to go back to normal, you can delete the new "browser.dll" from \Windows, and the original one will handily reappear, as it's stored in the ROM.

Thanks sub69! I'll give it a shot...I'm trying to gain access to some of my carrier's services that they don't off to WM devices.
Hello all,
I installed the CAB on my Kaiser and it works great. Thanks for this post. I have T-Mobile Mobile TV in the Netherlands.
I first called the helpdesk and they told me my phone is not compatible with the service.........
This is the links to the T-Mobile Mobile TV Website:
http://t-mobile.nob.nl
[Edit]
I tested to open the link directly without the CAB installed and with the default User Agent String and it works fine.
Hi,
Is it possible for some one to make a cab file that would identify my Kaiser WM6.1 as the 3 Skypephone or INQ handset?
Thanks
There is a Wiki here, maybe somebody update it if applicable.
An updated list of mobile User-Agents
great cab file. it actually wotks with coreplayer.
I just upgraded my Tilt to Dutty's wm6.1, and I was wondering if there is something that I can do to make it so I can purchase things from MEdia Mall from AT&T. There are a couple of things that I need to get from there, and now it won't let me...says "we're sorry, your device is not supported for purchases on the MEdia Mall".
I know on Motorola phones you can add the Cingular certs to a folder (at least in the older p2k phones), which re-enables access to purchasing. Is there something like this that we can do to Tilts with an upgrade ROM? A cab we can install or a registry edit? I'm assuming we just need to do something that AT&T sees it as a Tilt and not an unknown phone.
I searched, but didn't see anything on this subject.
i've been looking for the same thing. I'll see if i could point you in the right direction. I remember reading something a while back about RestoreProxy and Disable Proxy.. maybe you want to restore the proxy to get it to work. Do a search in google because the search feature in this forum never find anything for some reason. Google. Restore Proxy Kaiser in google you should find someting
Well, you have to go through the proxy to even connect to the MediaNet homepage.
My sig! Look at it .
There is also an option in KaiserTweak to change how your device identifies itself to websites. Try changing the setting to AT&T Tilt. Combine that with the AT&T hidden proxy, and you should be good to go.

I could get on with either one. I did it before.
I'm fiddling around with a provisioning xml for my UC setup.
I've gathered how to set up an e-mail account but I want to do some more stuff.
(More specifically I want to set region, my default windows live user/settings (or perhaps just my hotmail account) and user/adress info)
I've found bits and pieces of info here and there but it's not much to go by, can anyone lend a helping hand?
I'm also interested in knowing how to prep Coreplayer. Does anyone know how to automate the input of the serial? I can't find anything in the registry and I have no idea if it's possible to automate the input by scripting some sort of event..?
Yes this sounds interesting. I would definitely care to know how to set up my device so that I don't have to set everything up again and again and again after every hard reset. and again.
Does any one know the registry settings to enable internet sharing?
There's a small collection of them, what isn't working about it on your phone? If it's something like the mobile operator permission check, then yeah, we can bypass that.

Really? I missed that. Is that in a thread somewhere?
I have the Samsung Ativ S Neo from Ssprint.

There are a number of threads about Internet Sharing and about registry tweaking. The requirement for tethering to be enabled on your account is checked by a mobile operator-specific DLL that is used by ICSSVC (the Internet Connection Sharing SerViCe). There's a registry value that tells the phone what DLL to load, or whether to load any. If you don't tell it to use any, it defaults to assuming you have access.
There are a number of ways to make registry changes on your phone. You can flash a custom CSC (not a full ROM, though if you look for "custom ROM" on the dev&hacking subforum, you'll find stuff about it), or you can edit the registry directly using a hijacked app chamber, or you can interop-unlock (itself requiring a registry edit, so you probably need to use the chamber hack unless you're on an old version of Samsung's firmware) and unblock RPC, then use the RPCComponent.

That is one (of several) methods for editing the registry. It can write more places than the other methods, but only works on Strings and Integers (DWORDs) and is only usable on Samsung phones. It requires that your process have ID_CAP_INTEROPSERVICES, which many OEM apps (and some first-party ones, like Skype) have, but which is not normally available to sideloaded apps.
"Unblock RPC" is the term we use for telling a Samsung service that it's in test mode by placing a file named "Non-production errors.txt" in the Documents folder of the phone. This will allow using RPCComponent anywhere in the registry, instead of just in a few specific places. Search for "unblock rpc" to learn more.
RPCComponent is a Samsung-provided native (C++/CX) DLL and WINMD for accessing various privileged functions by means of a high-privilege RPC (Remote Procedure Call) server. It is not publicly available but is bundled in many of Samsung's OEM apps and is available on this forum inside most .XAP files intended for use on Samsung phones (such as my own BootstrapSamsung tool; see the interop-unlock thread). As mentioned above, you need ID_CAP_INTEROPSERVICES for it to be useful.

I interop-unlocked (all-capabilities) my phone using methods you've posted. This was earlier in the year sometime.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=54929482&postcount=13
I followed this closely but didn't see any finality.
I just added the Non-production errors.txt in the place noted on that relative thread.
Not sure what to do next.
Forgive me if I am being a bother.
-tdecision10
Yeah i'm completely lost. The EnableAllSideloading XAP won't deploy for me (The manifest could not be loaded and may not be valid) so I can't even full unlock, and I have no clue how to go about using the MBN creator. So if you could hold my hand, I'd love it....
okay so I figured out MBN creator (kinda) but I still need to know the proper reg settings to disable the carrier authorization check.... i.e. the setting that points to the carrier specific DLL you mentioned...
EnableAllSideloading doesn't work on WP8.1 because they changed the security on the registry key where it operates. If you can't sideload it, that's because you're not interop-unlocked at all.
MBN Creator should, in theory, not require any particular customization unless your operator requires it; the *default* state of the Internet Sharing feature is "no restrictions, enabled by default". Several people have reported that IS started working after they flashed a custom CSC even though that CSC had nothing to do with IS, just because it removed the carrier-specific customizations that were present (and were blocking IS from working) before.
@tdecision10: If you are or were able to capability-unlock, then you can just sideload any registry editor tool you want and use that. Some of them are better than others, of course. A handful of apps, like WPTelnetD (https://github.com/FurballTheGreat/WPTelnetD/releases), ship with almost no capabilities so that they can be sideloaded on any phone, but you could unpack the XAP and edit the capability list before installing if you want to. A capability that gives access to the relevant registry key is ID_CAP_RUNTIME_CONFIG.

Okay, I put Pasquiindustry CustomPFD on my pc unzipped it added that capability in the WPAppManifest. xml file, rezipped it but now it won't deploy.
Did I think it was too simple?
EDIT:
For Spr int, I think I need to figure out how to do this:
TetheringNAIConnection
Optional. Specifies the CDMA TetheringNAI Connection Manager cellular connection that internet sharing will use as a public connection.
If a CDMA mobile operator requires using a Tethering NAI during internet sharing, they must configure a TetheringNAI connection and then specify the connection in this node.
Specified connections will be mapped, by policy, to the internet sharing service. All attempts to enumerate Connection Manager connections for the internet sharing service will return only the mapped connections.
The mapping policy will also include the connections specified in the DedicatedConnections as well.
(This is the error I get)
If the specified connections do not exist, internet sharing will not start because it will not have any cellular connections available to share
Anyone know how to add this to the APN settings?
-tdecision10
well, i reverted to 8.0 and then updated to 8.1 via retail without thinking.... so i got the new firmware and took myself out of the game :crying:
edit: reverted back to 8.0 again and i have the old firmware again. i think using the mbn creator is key. with older versions of windows phone, the APN settings were all built into the rom. now they are provisioned OTA. everytime i change the CSC, the device fails the authorization check with sprints servers and the device doesn't provision itself. what we need is the provxml that contains all of sprints APN settings. I used to have this information in a kitchen for WM 6.5, but sadly, I deleted it a long time ago. i can currently do one thing or another, unlock internet sharing but have no data connection, or, have a data connection with internet sharing locked. i believe that i can make a custom CSC with all the necessary edits but I need to get my hands on the correct sprint provxml first. I've tried and tried to find an old kitchen for Sprint with the correct files in it, but because it's so old most of them are dead download links. I think even a stock RUU for the GOLD_C (Sprint's HTC Arrive) would do. If anyone has this or can track it down I think we'd be in business....
@GoodDayToDie thanks for all the input, it's really helpful. I think that most people have found success by simply changing their CSC because their phones are not CDMA. we've got all these extra restrictions that keep the technology from working automatically
also, i believe that if I could manage to somehow get my MSL unlock code, I could manually program the APN. problem is, CDMA Workshop can't read it, and the free version doesn't let you use the brute force option to find it. Sprint changed their policy in October to under no circumstances giving out the MSL code unless your contract is up. I'm going to continue to keep trying different tech support reps to see if I can get one of them to give it up.
@tdecision10 I'm getting close, but I REALLY need those WM 6.5/7 Sprint OEM packages..... if you know of anyone or come across it browsing it would be immensely helpful!
mtstmp, I have leadpoizon's old rom for HTC Arrive. Let me know if that will work and if so, how to get it to you.

Hi,
I have a Nokia Lumia 520 Vodafone (I'm not sure if this is the rigth section or this one http://forum.xda-developers.com/windows-phone-8/development).
I'm using a MVNO operator. It's everything quite good (connection) but I can't use it in order to have the hotspot.
I try to explain: as default, there are 3 different APN (not related to the MVNO operator but related to the operator who "give" the network to the MVNO) and I added the one correct for the MVNO operator. I use the last one, and the smartphone can connect and so on.
The problem probably is that when I activate the tethering (hot spot) the phone automatically tries to activate another APN (one of the 3 as default) but obviously there isn't any connection (there is a message like "there isn't any connection available").
The solution should be: delete these default APN.. but I can't!
Pushing (holding it) the APN only 2 choice are showed: ACTIVATE and SHOW (neither MODIFY nor DELETE).
Well, the question is: can I in some way delete these APN (or change their values... I don't know, via registry system)??
Please note that the tethering function is officially allowed by the operator and in his opinion the is a phone matter.
Also please note the Vodafone brand is only "a face", I mean this rom doesn't deny any type of connection.
Thanks to help
Known problem; some MOs put a custom configuration for tethering in the registry of their phones. To make tethering work "like normal" you need to remove this custom configuration. It can be done by installing a registry editor via chamber hijacking, but I don't have the details of what changes you need to make handy right now.

Do you think I can do it simply installing something like "Root Tool" (http://www.windowsphone.com/en-us/store/app/root-tool/f4acc009-ea1e-4063-9bab-fec50195aa1e) ?
Root Tool should let you make the necessary changes, yes. I'm not sure if it supports binary data types, so if you need to edit those you may have trouble, but otherwise it's fine.
Sorry I don't recall the details for making this work. Searching this forum for "Internet Sharing" may help...
