Windows 7 build 7057

Did anyone tried to install Windows 7 build 7057. This is the newest version which is available now on the world wide web. Currently I am running Windows 7 build 7000 on my HTC Shift. Maybe someone can tell me how the update function is working from 7000 to 7057.
And how can i delete the message "Evaluation copy. Build 7057.winamin.090305-2000". I could try some old versions but i don't know if that is working.

haven't tried it.. I have tried 7000-7022-7048.. but not the 7057... until there is a really interesting new thing in Win 7, I won't change the version .. 7048 has everything working fine for me.. and so should be 7057.
I don't know how to remove the trademark.. but I know it was possible with vista... I guess it is the same for 7.. just look on some forums

I just installed it today........so far so good

All function with this build is ok!!!
Wifi - bluetooth - shagctrl - internet share from snapvue - resolution changer.
Not working for the two button of resolution changer and shagctrl, only via software!!

I haven't tried in Shift... but working on the Toshiba-M700... as such the build is fine. It is good

So all themes including aero is working with both resolutions 800x480 and 1024x600?
and how about activating.. does it work with this version too or does it expire after 30 days?

Control panel is working very well for windows 7057. The resolution changer isnt.
Unfortunately the 'classic theme' has been removed from windows 7. Right now I am having a lot of trouble with the blue screen. I cannot switch back to 800x480 after I've changed the screen resolution because there is no classic mode i chould switch to.

all themes exist in Win7.. you just need to select the correct one (at the bottom of page).
if you have issue, just press F8 at start and choose to run windows in VGA mode.. which is 640x480 and then choose 800x480 in windows.
everything works perfect for me except the BSOD with 1024+AERO.
all buttons works.

Windows 7 Migration to build 7057
Thanx for all these reactions!
After reading this messages i decided to upgrade my system.
So this morning i tried to upgrade my Windows 7 (build 7000) to Windows 7 (build 7057).
I had Windows 7 installed with the Step-by-step guide for installing Windows 7 beta1 instructions.
After installation i didn't have any problems at all. All my settings and documents are there!
The one problem that is still existing is the videodriver. With the upgrade the videodrivers are installed again from Windows. After installation of the HTC Driver the resolutionchanger is working again. Of course without Aero.
The only thing that i can't solve is removing the Evalution copy watermark. Can someone help me with this?
Update:
Touch screen is not working. Had to reinstall the software (EC and Touchdriver)

So there is no solution for higher resolution and Aero? An alternate driver or reg tweak?

At the moment there is no solution to this problem. Why would you even want to run aero with only 64MB dedicated video memory...

If the function is there I want it nevermind the productivity I used to say until Vista came...not important but teh basic theme is ugly.

Hello guy.
Since I installed the 7057 I have problems with the sd. The shift can not read the sd card. Someone has the same problem?

Hmm, I've been using 7057 for a couple of weeks now without having any problems with the SD-card.
Did you try with a different memory card?

I try with a different memory card, a lot of cards and I try to reinstall vista. Sd works on vista. Also when I insert the sd on seven 7057 wi fi stops working. In your opinion may depend from the ROM that I installed on WM side?
Thanks deadnex.

It doesn't have anything to do with what ROM version you are using on WM side. Try changing the power option to "high performance" in Win7. If that doesn't work you could try to rollback the driver (in case you installed a new driver through windows update)
Hope this is helpful

Windows 7 build 7057 vs. Windows Vista boot time
Hi,
Question for you guys that have already installed Windows 7. How fast is the boot time vs. Vista?
Thanks

Windows 7 build 7057 vs WM6
Guys, another question. Does the connectivity between Windows / build 7057 work with WM6? Is it using the same USB tool?
Thanks

First Windows Phone 7 App Unlocker Released

Hi Just wanna share the info regarding unlocking WP7, sorry if this posted in XDA already, but in case somebody want to try this unlock tools... here it is..
Microsoft allows developers to unlock their device for sideloading their applications for testing purposes using their marketplace account. Creating a marketplace account requires yearly charges of 99 USD which is difficult for new testing developers to pay for. A groups of developers have released a new Windows Phone 7 unlocker tool which provides the ability for anyone to unlock a WP7 device without a Marketplace developer account. The developers claim that this tool is completely safe and reversible for the phone and the app even allows you to relock the phone. Just download the exe,run it when your phone is connected. Thats it..Your phone unlocked. Here is the download links,
http://walshie.me/ChevronWP7.exe

Congrats to the developers of this tool, the chevron group consisting of Long Zheng, Rafael Rivera and Chris Walsh. Follow their blog for more details on this project.

no problem bro. I spent 3 hours reading and trying on several machines till I found all that info in several places. It just did not work for me on XP but every os beyond from ms did.

I did every step, but it still doesn't work.
It keeps throwing the error
Sorry, i'm having trouble communicating with the phone,
-Please make sure it's connected using USB
-Please start the Zune application
If the phone's locked, it does show "Your phone is PIN locked" or sth.
I'm also running Windows 7 64 bit.

help
everytime i run chevronwp it crashes help

help
when i run the program and go through the check list and hit unlock i get a message that says the program has stopped workin help

1. Did u download and install the thing from the link to ms?
if no then that might be part of ur problem
2. Do u have Skype or any other app like that running on ur machine?
If so then u need to full close out of those apps. Make sure there process's are not still active. U can do so through task manager.
3. In Zune when ur phone connects does it say ur name or guest?
If guest then u need to hit the button below the phone image to set up ur phone to be the main user.
4. Did u sign into Zune?
If no then sign in. I was signed in when it worked for me.
I hope that helps troubleshoot ur problem.
Also try re downloading the unlocked app. If it was zip/rar it might of unpacked incorrectly.

1. Yes, I verified that because I can access the editor and Application Deployment (by searching for it..)
2. Only MSN, but that was switched off.
3. Will have to check, but I think it's the name of the phone.
4. Yes, I tried when signed in and out.
I will try booting in safe mode, maybe that helps.
I'll get back to you.

I have Win 7 64 bit as well and got all the same errors.
I then tried it on a Win 7 32 bit machine, with all the same settings, and no problems at all. Unlocked within a second.
Thankyou.

Taken from the chevronwp7 blog
seems that this tools dev has been temp stopped
tryed to dl the cerv from the link bellow
http://www.chevronwp7.com/cert
however its just goes to a 404 error page now
managed to dl the tool before the shutdown but seems to require the cert to work on a x64 machine
any ideas?
post from chervon bellow
Code:
ChevronWP7 Dev Team: “Earlier today, we were contacted by Brandon Watson, Director of Developer Experience for Windows Phone 7, to discuss the ChevronWP7 unlocking tool.
Through this discussion, we established a mutual understanding of our intent to enable homebrew opportunities and to open the Windows Phone 7 platform for broader access to developers and users.
To pursue these goals with Microsoft’s support, Brandon Watson has agreed to engage in further discussions with us about officially facilitating homebrew development on WP7. To fast-track discussions, we are discontinuing the unlocking tool effective immediately.”
Hope you already downloaded the software (^_^)

You will find it here.
You'll have to send it by mail to your HD7 to install it on your device.

lol you beat me to it. make sure you extract the cert file from the zip before you attach to an email. just select the cert wait for it to download then select it again when you see the little shield next to the attachment. Then it will ask if you want to install the cert. do it and your set as far as that part of the process is concerned.
If your having issues with it in win7 x64 try changing the exe's compatibility to xp sp2 or sp3. i think i set mine to sp3 on my win7 x64 machine.
also make sure when your phone is sync to unlock your phone so its sitting at the start menu.

it worked! thanks montecristoffon for uploading of the cert file and and hackmimic for the guide.
Cheers!

Hi does this unlocker tool allow for third party apps to be installed? sorry abit confused about all this

can't install apps, connection error

Hey guys and gals, I'm having a problem with installing apps to wp7. I have xbmod rom, and when I want to send an app to device it says something about that device is not connected. But it is, and it has cert installed via email. Zune is up, and Dev tolls installed...
I just want to install Facebook and youtube. nothing else... Can I put xap files in rom and than do an automatic install at first startup?
please help

fixed, I installed Vista on virtual machine, and it worked... so, I guess the fault is either in operating system (win 7 64bit) or some installed software are doing conflicts (not skype or firewall nor AV)
So, mod can lock this.

hey am having the same problem, can you tell me how you did it
like more info?
thanks

As I was getting connection errors in my Win 7 64bit, in chevorn, app deployment software, tom xap etc. I just installed Windows Vista 32bit (Sp2- important) on virtual machine (vmware or virtualbox, whichever you prefer) and then I installed Windows Phone development tools in that windows, and that's it. App deployment works, chevron works... everything works as charm.
As I sad, I guess that our installations of Windows have some software that blocks ports, in my case, I'm pretty sure that port 443 was open, but something else was interfering with connection of HD2.
So fresh install of Windows or even better Windows on virtual machine is the real solution. because nothing else worked till this.
Hope I helped someone with this. Mods can put this information is some sticky tutorials about connection problem.
Good Luck

Developer Registration Tool w/o full SDK?

Long story short...I have a legit Windows Phone Developer account and I want to unlock my Lumia 920. I know the unlock tool is part of the WP8 SDK, but the only problem is that the SDK requires Windows 8 64-bit. As of now, the only Windows 8 install I have is on my Samsung tablet, so I can't install it on there since its not 64-bit.
Is there a way to just get the registration tool without installing the 1.5+GB SDK? Or is there a way to do it from Windows 7?

Try this. Idk if it works, but give it a shot anyway! Extract the files and put it in a folder, then run the exe.

unfortunately this doesn't work, as it states we need a zune-connected phone. and the lumia 920 doesn't connect to zune

RE: register phone
Why don't you use a vmware image of windows 8 where you can install the sdk on it. I use the same method as I have a macbook. for win phone 8 dev I use vmware.

I think the zip doesn't work but not because it needs a zune connected phone. Instead the issue is that the tool is probably missing some common files or something like that. It asks to connect the phone to the computer and points at a potential problem with the windows phone passthrough service (although there is no problem because the device can be browsed perfectly fine).

I wish I could at least install a XAP to my WP8 devce on Windows 7...Is THAT even possable ?

Sorry for bumping this old post, but I had been having issues registering/unlocking my Windows Phone 7 Lumia 710 recently to develop.
Using Windows 7 SDKs, the registration tool with it just wasn't working - I was getting the good old "Error logging into the App Hub. Please check your Windows Live ID and password and try again" message.
Even contacting Windows Dev Support couldn't resolve this - apparently its a known issue theyre working on just now!
Long story short, I found this thread - and tried the zip file you linked and it worked! I was able to register my phone through that file instead of the registration tool that came with the SDK. So thank you very much!

Worked for me too. Thanks a bunch !!
