[Q] HTC HD7S Developer Unlock? - HD7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I am trying to unlock my HTC HD7S because i want to have any tile color or accent color i want and other cool features BUT chevron keeps telling me to
-connect to usb
-open zune
and all that is done so what do I do?

Are you trying to use the original ChevronWP7 Unlocker? You know, the one that has never worked on any released ROM newer than 7008, uses a certificate that expired a couple months back, and has big bold-text warnings on its threads on XDA-Devs telling you that it doesn't work anymore?
If you have a ChevronWP7 Labs token, and that's not working, then you may want to take that up with the ChevronWP7 folks. The original unlocker not working is both known and expected, though.

Application unlock that might work

As Breeze and Monet are first HTC smartphones that attempt to lock the security\policies in the registry, I expect the technique to be the same.
I have discovered how to app.unlock the Monet (Virgin Lobster 700tv). So I guess this should work for the Breeze (C700, Meteor, etc.) as well.
try it and tell me:

Two (2) questions before flashing to WM6

First off, I think it would be prudent to have a copy of the original Cingular 8125 ROM lying around, just in case anything goes wrong.
Since it's been removed from the HTC site (and is unavailable...I asked HTC tech support), I would like to ask if anyone on this site has the original WM5 Cingular ROM for the 8125?
Second, I have been researching ROMs, and like what I see. It never ceases to amaze me, the effort that is put in by the volunteers here in the XDA community. My sincerest thanks to you all, for keeping these wonderful devices alive and kicking!
In fact, I saw one that I really like the looks of. It has a "drop dead gorgeous" today screen that is inspired by WM7...and then there's the unadorned one that includes the Office suite.
Is there a ROM that combines both? I would cook it myself, but have *no* idea how to do that, yet. I do know that I'd probably run out of space, if I even tried.
My requirements for this phone are simple. I don't do MMS or any of that multimedia crap...I will use it for business and contacts management, and to diagnose/access wi-fi networks. The ability to use the Office suite would also be nice...otherwise a viewer suite. Is there any ROM that would work better for me, than any other?
Thanks!

First,you can download the official cingular wm5 rom from this link:-
http://download.america.htc.com/RUU_Wizard_225111_22511102_022511_CWS_WWE_Ship_1.exe
Secondly,all the cooks build roms to the best of their efforts and include applications/programs they like and are commonly required and used,so if you want a clean rom,then simply flash a vanilla rom and install programs/applications of your own wish and requirement or you can always remove any program which you don't use or desire to have,after you flash an upgraded custom build rom
Well, thank you! I found the official ROM last night, with a bit of searching (always search before asking a question...) but wasn't sure about which ROM to start with.
I did the unlocking, flashed to the TMobile ROM, then chose one of the TouchFlo ROM images. VERY nice. Only significant bug (so far) is that the camera button doesn't work...have to go in through the album and activate it from there.
WM6.1 looks NICE! I'm genuinely impressed with the progress we've made in just a few years, and on the identical hardware! I just wish Microsoft was half as talented as the volunteers here, on this site. It's amazing what y'all have managed to do.
Thank you for such a quick reply.

Thanz!
You are most welcome,glade you liked the efforts of cooks here
Grrrrrrrr8! kick ass cookers.....
Hi Chuck,
when you did the unlocking did you downgrade to the button rom first to unlock it? I am having so much trouble trying to get activesync to connect after i downgrade.
Activesync 4.5 on XP Pro. 8125, G3 device.
I downgraded to the Button ROM, then unlocked it. I then reupgraded it to my original Cingular WM5 ROM. (hadn't downloaded the TMo ROM yet). Then, I upgraded to the first of my WM6.1 ROM choices. It worked perfectly.
The instructions are all online...found them all on a single page last night, but I can't find it right now. Didn't bookmark it.

Check out this guide:-
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Wizard Windows Mobile 6 for newbies
THAT'S IT!
That's the guide I used to do the downgrade/upgrade. They work perfectly, if you follow them. The only thing I didn't do was use the TMo ROM when I reupgraded to WM5, because I didn't yet have it...I used the Cingular WM5 ROM.
Worked perfectly.
What problem are you having with yours? Perhaps, if you were a little more specific, someone here could help you figure it out...details are always welcome.

Palm Treo 750 Windows Mobile Upgrade?

Hi All,
First let me apologize if this question was asked before.
I am new to playing around with my AT&T Palm Treo. I bought it last fall, and hated the operating system on it (Windows Mobile 5.1). I tried adding some fixes, but it is still very clunky. While searching the forums, I saw that Palm had a Windows updater to version 6, but it is no longer available at Palm's website.
So, some questions now:
1) Does anyone have a copy of the "official" updater: Treo750_2_25_ATT_EN_DesktopUpdater.exe Would you be able to share it with me?
2) I have a two year contract with AT&T (don't ask me). If I want to update my Palm, do I need to unlock it? Would it create any issues for me? Where do I find the files?
Thanks for all the help.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Hi stussy,
Regarding your doubts, I can answer this:
1 - Yes, it's possible. When you connect your HD7 to PC you can sync emails, facebook and other programs except Xbox, Marketplace and Music&Videos. For those you must use your data connection or Wifi
2 - Use Zune software to syncronize music and pictures with your HD7. But attention, you cannot change ringtones for now. In the first upgrade from MS (January) I think that will be possible
3 - What do you mean by unlock? Operator unlock? I have an O2 UK unlocked and I'm using here in Portugal without problems. If you are talking about Chevron method I don't advise that because of MS policies.
Thanks
Thanks bro.
From bought till now ...... few things make me trouble.
1. Cant typing chinese word in msg, need to use 3rd party software to make it .... sigh!!
2. Even install the chinese input but cant type chinese on MSN ...... DAMN !!!!
3. We know the msg & incoming ringtones cant change now .... WAIT for Microsoft updated ...... haiz .....
4. Now no many freeware to download .....
What i like is the OS .. CoOlllLL, Simple !!! Design of OS so nice ... This is wat we called ART .. lol And the sound quality is NICE

Lots of pros and cons to upgrading to the HD7S!
