I'm currently updating SDK to WP 7.8 As soon as it is finished this is the method I'm going to use.:good:

I'm unlocked now! How do I get internet sharing to work with WP 7.8
OS 7.10.8862.144
Firmware 2103.12.05.2

Hi, I'm from Argentina and I have a problem when trying to install the "wireless manager" app. I said, "This application does not support Focus and Omnia7. Use Network Profile instead".
Network profile I can use to unlock?. I have a Samsung Focus S with OS 7.10.8862.144, for the company PERSONAL ARGENTINA. I wait your response, thx.

[PROGRAM]One Click Unlock / All Models (Mac & PC)

Unlocking sites normally charge $25-$30 so please donate if you can because all of these devs put a lot of work into it.
PLEASE give credit (and donations if you can) to:
rhcp0112345 found out how to hex hack unlock the phone (PayPal)
rbnet.it and marcopon for the cool SGUX utility to extract it (donate to marcopon and rbnet.it Paypal)
Bowsa2511 for the command to extract the unlock code on a Mac & Pc (Paypal)
RazvanG for pointing the un-freeze code (Paypal)
DaGentooBoy For optimizing the mac and windows scripts, and a lot of troubleshooting (Paypal)
nbs11 for fixing and optimizing my original mac script, and making it an easier 1-click program. (Paypal)
This code may not work. If you enter the unlock code wrong to many times or if it gives you the wrong unlock code your phone may become bricked. By continuing you will take full responsibility for any damage. I am not liable
Prep:
Make sure that Network Lock is the only thing on... go to phone and enter *#7465625#
Make sure USB debugging is enabled (Settings->Applications->Development->USB Debugging)
Step 1: get the code
For Mac
Download the Samsung Galaxy S Unlocker
Mount the DMG and drag the folder onto the hard drive. DO NOT DRAG THE ICON WITH THE LOCK (the app). Once the file is finished copying continue.
Open the application with the lock. It should open a terminal window. Let it run for a few seconds and then it should show the unlock code
Save/write down the code
Jump to step 2.
For Windows
Download and extract the attached Galaxy S unlocker windows.
Run Generate_Code.bat
Look for the line Network Control Key:YourCode
Save the code
Jump to step 2.
Step 2: Entering the code
Power down your phone
Put in a SIM card from another carrier
Power up your phone
When it boots up it will ask for the unlock code that you found above
Now enter the unlock code you generated in Step 1.
Have fun!
Step 3: Flash back (IF THE CODE WAS UNSUCCESSFUL)
Flash back to an older firmware.

My intentions weren't meant to be misunderstood as "Trolling for cash", but more exposure for the free unlocking solution.
I know there are some here that visit multiple sections of the forum, but some are more "loyal" to their own.
So I take it this unlock doesnt survive an Odin flash back to stock. If not we can just re-enter the same code Im guessing

HTC Hidden WIFI

I saw that on this page: http://www.wpcentral.com/htc-releases-hidden-wifi-app-windows-phone1, HTC has released an app to find hidden wifi.
It's only for HTC for now I think.....

The new app doesn't work unless you are on the March 2011 NoDo update. So unless until the cooks release the NoDo update for the HD2.

Hello there!
How do you download and install this app? Thought you'd need to unlock with Chevron to do it?

Chevron is not required with the nodo updates. Use with the latest rom updates. If you download it, you have to use Tom's XAP installer to install it.
Looks like you have never done this before?

That'll be right! I haven't unlocked my phone for developer access so I thought it was impossible to side load apps without this?
Where can I find the XAP installer?

Thank you for the link, very much appreciated.
It mentions about unlocking with Chevron which from reading a few news sites MS have been bricking peoples phones when they have performed updates with Zune. It still a big issue?
I am not necessary looking to completely unlock the phone but definitely don't want to risk balls'ing the phone for homebrew apps. I have unbranded which I'm very satisfied with but I just want to be able to connect to my home wifi without broadcasting it. But seems I have to run the risk of playing with Chevron, unlocking, and registering as a dev with MS to simply load one app. I'll keep reading and consider my options.
Thanks again
Am I the only one that can't find the app in the marketplace?
Just flashed a NoDo rom onto the phone today and was looking forward to being able to use this.

Rather than go into the Marketplace, go straight to HTC Hub and it'll be on the front page. The 'Download' or 'Share' options don't appear though.
Ain't in there either, bit of a pain that..

Got my post NoDo update

Plugged my T-Mobile HD7 in this morning and Zune said there is an update. I doubt it's the HTC firmware update rather the MS update that fixes invalid certificates but I'll know more when it's complete.
After 40 min I was dissapointed to see it was just the MS update, still no hidden WiFi network access for me.

How did you update your phone to NoDo?
I'm T-Mobile HD7 but using the internet connection trick to get the 7390 update. Hope this doesn't stop me from getting updates in the future.

Youll be safe enough mate. The big question mark on updates is with devices that have been updated with Chevron updater & currently some of these are experiencing problems with latest post Nodo update.

According to other threads on this site other people are doing this. Off the top of my head I can't tell you the exact method they used to keep the device unlocked but if you search you'll find it in XDA. Good luck!

[Q] Unsimlock Xperia T

Hi everyone !
First of all, I'd like to introduce a little of myself because i'm new here ! My name is David, I'm 22, and i'm from France (Sorry for my English :angel. I just switched from an iPhone 4s to a Sony Xperia T (obvious in this section of the forum, right? ^^)
I'm a total beginner about Android development, but i'm learning more and more everyday !
Here is my problem : The xperia I bought is simlocked to Orange, a french provider (even though I know it exists in other countries), and i'd like to know how I could get rid of this lock so I can use my phone with my unlimited plan from another provider.
Does the lock come from the fact that the it's a Orange Firmware ? Can I bypass it by flashing the firmware and installing another firmware that won't be from Orange?
Do I have to unlock the bootloader ? Root the phone ?
Thanks for your answers and your help ! :good:
It will be simlocked to Orange regardless, you'll have to call Orange or a third party to unlock it for you.
Only Samsung devices and certain HTC have certain ways to unlock the phone freely. I don't know about Sony, as this is my first Sony phone.
I already called them, they told me that it costs 76€.. And a third party would be pretty much the same I guess..
Well I hope there's gonna be another solution, because I can't wait to fully use it ! :fingers-crossed:
Thanks for your answer though !
Most t third pairs will do it for around 30 bucks
Did I help? Then please don't forget to press the thanks button.
Is your question solved? Then mark your question solved in your title.

well I can't find one that'll do it for 30 bucks, so if you know one !
French law about cellphone states your service provider is to unlock your phone free of charge (considering you ask for it) after the sixth month of your engagement.
It can be done sooner but as you said, it's not free at all, and you'll still have to pay for your monthly plan for the rest of your engagement period.

well if it is in status locked, you can unlock it (if i understand correctly). type *#*#7378423#*#* service info, configuration (or similar, am on cm10 so cannot look) and check if you can unlock it.
Sent from my Xperia T
The phone is in status locked when I look in Service Info, but I believe some members here already did unlock their bootloader.
Also I flashed the original Orange branded rom and replaced it with the Generic UK one, which is not branded (I thought by doing this it might disable the simlock, but it didn't..)

what i mean is not simlock, of course, but it should say in that menu if you can unlock bootloader.
it should say something like: Rooting: Unlock of bootloader: Yes
edit: from sonymobile site:
Instructions
First, you should confirm that it is possible to unlock the boot loader of your phone by checking the service menu. In your phone, open the dialler and enter *#*#7378423#*#* to access the service menu.
In your phone, tap Service info > Configuration > Rooting Status. If Bootloader unlock allowed says Yes, then you can continue with the next step. If it says No, or if the status is missing, your device cannot be unlocked.
Sent from my Xperia T
It actually says "No" to unlock the bootloader, that's what I was trying to say previously lol
That's why I said that I believe,even though it says no, that some members managed to unlock it. Or maybe that status is proper to each phone?

That's true for the 2011 line and some of the 2012 line. But for Xperia t it is not (yet) possible. And if they unlocked while bootloader unlock allowed stated no they paid for it.

None other than to ask your carrier nicely it for a paid for service. And its unlikely there ever will be one.

If you were on the build ending with MI9 the region lock away trick unlocked the phone. Since you aren't on that build and its impossible to return to it, you have to pay for unlock. Or patiently wait for at&t to provide one.
