I have HTC HD7 UK O2 phone...when i am using windows phone developer application to deploy any application to my phone it returns with error - This phone is developer locked. After this i have tried ChevronWP7.exe tool but no luck. I have tried everything mentioned in all forums here - modifying registry entry, host file blah blah but still no luck.

Rollback
Hi Sandeep027,
The dev unlock can only be carried from the original O/S revision to NoDo and then to Mango, it looks like your handset has been updated before the unlock was applied and now you cannot unlock it.
You can either roll back to a previous Zune backup from the original O/S revision and unlock using chevron, then follow the guides to update whilst keeping the handset unlocked (reg fix). Or you can apply a custom ROM from ansar (some are already dev unlocked)
Take a look at the WP7 general forums and read up on what it is that you want to do, there are some very clever people in there who have put together detailed guides on how to do this.
Hope this helps,
Creamy
Thanks
Thanks a lot my friend...could you be so kind to advise me on how to go about this as i don't have any zune restore point...
To unlock your gonna have to flash a pre-nodo rom. Unlock with chevron, apply prevent relock hack, update to nodo via Zune, look for my thread in wp7 general to have mango unlocked after update via Zune. In my opinion ansar hasnt done anything but post official roms he has found and copied work without giving credit. Day after I posted provxml method to unlock mango he posted it,taking credit. Day after cotulla posted hspl he posted slspl... Huh

if you want to unlock your phone with chevron you need to downgrade to 7004 or 7008.
firstly install hspl from the link below..

then install this rom..

I think installing RSPL is more than enough for laymen like us.

No, not receiving but if you don't want to wait use cabsender (offline) to update your firmware. I use stock RUU_Schubert_S_HTC_Europe_5.10.401.04_Radio_5.71.0 9.02a_22.51.50.21 which I have recooked leaving everything like stock but with full unlock. After flashing the recooked rom I've used cabsender to update to my native language (dutch) and the 7.10.7740 update cab. HSPL didn't change and I've kept my full unlock. Current firmware 7.10.7740.16 revision firmware 2250.21.51004.401 radio 5.71.09.02a_22.51.21u
In your case it is best to downgrade your spl and to hspl first and to do an offline update with cabsender because of the risk to end up with a 5.X bootloader which can't be hspl'd at the moment and a downgrade is also impossible with that bootloader.
Also when starting with your rom revision you will probably won't get internet sharing in settings. I've tried that with the same rom revision and hspl, and after the offline 7740 update with cabsender I ended up with the 7.10.7740.16 revision .... without the internet sharing in settings.
Thanks for the hint, and as although I haven't received yet the official Zune notification, I'd prefer to continue waiting for it. I hope I’ll continue being patience!
Thanks again.
I just got the 7740.16 MS update but not yet the HTC firmware update.

Hi BetoX,
I have the same software version and recently installed 7740.16, but no HTC update.
Contacted HTC support a few times,
1st answer was 'The Internet Sharing option is only for new devices that ship with Windows Phone 7.5' wtf!
2nd answer was 'We do not have official confirmation as to whether your device will receive this update'.
Contacted WindowsPhoneSupport next,
they said the Internet Sharing update is determined by Mobile Operator and OEM, it has nothing to do with them.
If HTC requires Mobile Operator approval for this feature update, this could mean there's no unbranded firmware to come.
We may need to rebrand to either T-Mobile or O2.
Don't know where to begin on that, just need to make sure the phone remains unlocked because I'm not on either of those networks.
Picked up my HD7 on eBay, it arrived unbranded and unlocked to work with Wind Mobile up here in Canada.

So, I decided to install since my Zune app prompted me to upgrade. Nothing (almost) changed. I see not a different functionality change and they only 'visible' change is on the Firmware revision.
BEFORE: Firmware revision number: 2250.21.51003.531
AFTER: Firmware revision number: 2250.21.51004.531
Nothing else changed (radio, bootloader, OS, etc.)
