Hello everyone..
I just bought a HTC HD7 and i have a few doubts..
I was browsing youtube when i found something called the NoDo update for the hd7.. Can anyone please explain on how to go about this whole thing.. and is there a mod to install third party apps in my phone..
Please help..
Nodo is the Copy/paste update (that brings few other feautres too) that was released in March/April for WP7. If you got ur device from a retailer i'd guess you already have it. You can check by going to settings > About > more info, if you see OS version 7390 or above, you have NoDo.
If you want to get 3rd Party apps on the phone, you'll need to "unlock" it. You do this using an unlock application developed by "Chevron". If you search forums of google for "Chevron Wp7 unlock" you should find a how to. Only problem is if you're already on NoDo or above, you'll have to roll back first (I posted how I did it HERE, but it doesn't seem to work for everyone. Maybe it's a UK/Europe thing?)
Once/If you Unlock the device, you'll then be able to Side-load 3rd Party Apps onto it. You'll need to download the .xap files for the apps you want, and install using a XAP Installer

EDIT!!!
i managed to start the HTC interop unlock !!!! and now ? what is the next step ????
what can or must i do to unlock this phone ?????
Windows Phone 8 can install xap's, this does not mean it can run or start them if they require interop unlock. Currently interop unlock is not possible.
pffft...finally got this (allmost) working...
it doesn't lett me in several of these folders....
working on it...i will update later...
You can change any value by Registry Editor and save ? (or not - I think so not)
For check you can try to install an application that needs access to the root eg: Shutdown: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=21751650&postcount=1
You can install app but not run (when tap, app is back to the apps list).

Oh wait it's only for Windows 8 WTF? There is no way I'm going to upgrade to that crappy os.
Very nice news! Hope to see this on HTC 8X too!
i follow you men!
i have an HTC 8S too, i will install VS 2012 and make DevUnlock with the SDK tools.
i will help you if you need testers, i am just begginer i can not help you to develop.
wp7mktplace cant sign these apps anymore
try other things or already signed homebrew apps
It possible to call all funcs from system dlls. But a lot of funcs returned Access_denied.
How about we all save some time and stop trying this silly idea, huh?
The interop unlock you're trying to install was for older HTC WP7 devices. It doesn't work on newer devices, and it certainly won't work on WP8 devices. The apps won't work for two reasons:
-Your device isn't interop unlocked
-The binaries are compiled for WP7, not WP8. Not even simple innocent apps like Orientation Lock run under WP8, because they aren't compiled correctly for WP8, nor do they use the correct APIs.
What should be encouraged, however, is an evaluation of the OEM apps on the device, to see if any have exploitable holes. I'm guessing that HTC has learned its lesson by now, but hey, worth trying.
Also, I'm curious to see if this XAP will do anything if sideloaded. I'm guessing no, as it won't have interop privileges, but I'm still curious to see what happens.

I'm with you, trust me I want the same thing... I have a edu Dev account and I am sick of the 3 app limit, never mind the lack of custom colors (Advanced Config), It seems a interop unlock for my 8X would be the only thing I need now to enjoy it more.
As long as these apps will work with a 8X of course
Hi guys I recently hard reset my phone so that I could download the latest upgrade to my Lumina 822 without getting that x800 error whatever everyone was getting, everything went smooth but when I was restoring my apps I lost my "Swipe Tunes" does anyone have an offline XAP for it? Thanks.
LOL, never mind.. I found the offline xap on the Windows Phone website LOL.
oh no!! It won't install the store says its not a supported app WTF?

Hello everyone,
I am interested, is there any way to install Windows 10 Mobile on Lumia 925? Maybe some hack or editing the registry will help? Please help me ))))
Thanks!!!

Install the Windows Insider app and select the release preview ring.
No need to mess with the registry.

EDIT: It now started downloading .164
One more question: What about Redstone builds? How can I install them?
Thanks again!
For Redstone builds you need to fake an entry in the registry.
To be exactly in HKLM-->SYSTEM-->Platform-->DeviceTargetingInfo change the entry in PhoneManufacturer from NOKIA to MicrosoftMDG
But beware, major bugs can occur since your device is not supported officially.

I have a HTC One M8 Windows running 10586.164; that said if you're attempting to run the very latest builds which as of this typing is 14295. Microsoft releases a list of supported devices and the Lumia 925 and the M8W are not on the list and trust me, I'm not happy about their decision and I blame HTC too; a two year promise that has been deliberately broken and for HTC users this is twice and I don't care what some post about their decision being faired; I'm sick of the general device manufacturers thumbing their noses up at us and if the Tech Previews work on our device then why can't the gold release be made to work on ours too.

You are absolutely right!
I have installed Redstone build with registry hack. It works very good on my Lumia 925 it's faster than build 10586.164. If you are interested in that check out this link: https://www.reddit.com/r/windowsphone/comments/4bmmiy/tutorial_for_installing_redstone_builds_on/
Dont work on 520
Hi!
I can't install redstone on my Lumia 520,because i can't install vcREG and CustomPFD.
I've set my phone to developer mode in the developer options settintgs page,and after that i tried to deploy vcREG and CustomPFD to my phone with application deployment tool from windows phone sdk 8.1.When i try to deploy vcREG,the app deploy says the app manifest could not be loaded or not valid,and when i tryed to deploy CustomPFD it throws this error code: 0x81030120.what can i do?i have 10586.164 build of w10m,and i've tried any other methods (for example root tool's interop unlock),but nothing worked for me :/

Hi,
First of all before you will attempt to install Redstone on your device I want to say to you that Redstone on my Lumia 925 was not stable enough. Yes, it was faster than 10586.164 build but it had some bugs listed below:
1) When SIM card is inserted you can't get any notifications and when you try to download app from the store, store freezes. If you will remove SIM card from your phone you will get notifications and store will work properly.
2) If you will reset your phone you will stuck on Welcome Back screen. (If you want to avoid that you need to remove SIM card from your phone)
2) Phone has also charging bugs.
3) Phone restarts very often.
4) Sometimes phone can't find any Wi-Fi. (Restart helps)
So this are the bugs that I noticed when using latest Redstone build on my Lumia 925. If you want to install it anyways I have some suggestions.
1) Restore your phone to Windows Phone 8.1 and ensure that extras+info will not get any update.
2) Install only Windows Insider app and choose Release Preview.
3) When you will install build 10586.164 make reset and again don't update extras+info. (Turn off auto update in store)
4) Choose Developer mode and deploy vcREG. Before you deploy CustomPFD go to templates in vcREG app and click on first and fourth checkboxes and hit apply(or something like that) then deploy CustomPFD.
If you will update extras+info you will not be able to deploy this apps. If you will deploy CustomPFD without using vcREG you will get error: 0x81030120
If you have further questions I am here. ))))
Does anyone know if in the future 520 will be able to update to 14295 without registry hacks? 10586 is unusable for me since it has the bug that prevents installation of extra language packs/keyboards
I was JUST about to flash it and read this. Thanks for the info. Wondering if future builds will be more stable.
Also, say if I flash this, can I revert back to either 8.1 or 10 Preview?

Yes you can revert to WP8.1 and then install W10M preview.
Also not every user had this bugs... Maybe if you will update to W10M you will not get this bugs... But it's risky...

Then I am not willing to take the plunge. I was planning to flash a FULLY working ROM as I was going to give my 925 to my Mom.
But if that is the case, then I might just wait for a fully functional, stable ROM.
What say/?
Update
Hi!
Thanks for help I've installed Redstone,but it produced a lot of bugs...wifi adapter not working good,mobile data completely not worked,lock screen service seemed to stop after some time...i've used wdrt,and now i want to install w10m 10586 to my phone,but it's not working.i've set the insider app to fast ring,and restarted the phone,but it says it has no new updates.what can i do?i really want to install w10m 10586 :/
edit:i set the insider app to release ring,rebooted the phone,and after some time it started to download an update,it might be w10m

Yes it's W10M build 10586.107. When it will be installed check for updates again and it should download build 10586.164. This build is very stable and useful for everyday usage. ...And also I don't understand why they removed Redstone builds from older Lumias with 1GB of RAM, it was very fast on my 925(Except of Bugs)... Lets see what we will get in future...

Unfortunately, that's not true. With 10586 you can't download language packs/keyboards (at least not the ones that include the swype functionality). Anyways, you didn't answer my question - can I expect to be able to install 14295 without registry hacks on 520/521?
Hi there, maxbrew here. I just got a Nokia Lumia 520 and windows phone 8.1 (also carrier locked).
I wanted to install some applications directly from the phone itself since I don't have much access to computers. Is it possible to do?
Hi Maxbrew,
the only way to install apps to the 520 is updating it to Windows 10 MOBILE. Without computer, that is impossible. With computer, it is a challenge, but possible and it runs fairly good. Search for Windows 10 mobile offline updater (W01M_Installer), install W10m, do all possible Updates, perform a hard reset and register it with Microsoft. Then you will be able to use the App store or sideload apps via developer mode.
Best regards,
Joachim
