developer unlock to full interop unlock ? possible after Tango ?

I've been running around in circles for hours, is it possible to go from a developer unlock to a full interop unlock -after- having updated to Tango 7.10.8773.98 ? I can load some XAP's, but root tools and wintt fail.
I had to format my PC and lost my backup.

I'm sort of in the same boat as you. I will be going to my local at&t device support center and getting my phone flashed. I'm hoping the guy there can use the oldest rom he has and or give me a copy of it. I'll post results.

no is the short answer if you have already got the newer firmware, the Windows build has little to do with it,although the tango builds do phone home to relock but that can be prevented
dev unlock is not interop unlock, which is needed to access high privileged functions
if you didn't update the firmware but you did let it relock then simply reapply the unlock and then apply the relock prevent xap, but I suspect you have already tried that suggesting you have the new firmware as well

perhaps ATT will flash the older ROM, I doubt it though and I doubt it even less that they would give you a flashable copy
but stranger things have happened so lets (hope) wait and see

Not what I really wanted to hear, but that's about what I figured/expected. I can't imagine going into AT&T & finding someone who had a clue about re-flashing a WP device.

No interop unlock after firmware 2103.11.10.1
It is annoying everytime I plugin zune pop out the "update" thing for the firmware, anyone know how to disable that?

change the device ID to a nokia
goto HKLM system platform
change OEMdevicename to Lumia 900
OemName to NOKIA ( that is case sensitive)
MODeviceName Lumia 900
that will stop the Samsung update notification and also let you use nokia apps
oh before you change them can you post what yours say? im curious about something

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

[Q] Windows Phone 8.1 (Nokia Lumia Icon)

Hey everyone, I'm new to these forums but was recommended by a friend. He said that if anyone knew how to do what I need to do, this would be the place so I appreciate any help given.
I am looking to wipe out my Nokia Lumia Icon which has the Windows Phone 8.1 Dev kit on it and put on Android. I tried Windows Phone out but there is still a few kinks that need to be worked out before I fully commit. I would normally just go get an Android Phone but finances don't currently permit and the hardware on this phone is nice.
Thanks

Hi,
If I understand correctly, you want to install Android on this phone? If this is so, then you can not.
By cons, I do not quite understand "Windows Phone 8.1 Dev kit" You mean the Preview for Developers?

Yes, I was looking to wipe off Windows Phone 8.1 and install android. Any reason behind why you can't do it? Just software/hardware compatibility or what?
I did mean the preview for developers.
Thanks!

... you're awfully new to this smartphone thing, aren't you? With *very* few counterexamples, what you're asking for is almost never possible. Without going into the technical details:
1) Most smartphones have locked bootloaders. WP8 devices won't load any OS without a MS signature; good luck getting one of those for your Android image.
2) There's no "installer" for Android (or for WP) the way there is for Windows 7 or Ubuntu or something. You have to customize an Android image with device-specific firmware, then flash the whole thing. There currently doesn't exist any Android-compatible firmware for the Icon.
3) Most important of all: SEARCH BEFORE POSTING! It is literally the number one rule on this forum. Lots of noobs have asked this question; it's annoying answering them over and over again.

If you want to install Android on Lumia Icon, why don't you just buy an Android phone ?

How to turn it ON?
Sry Im new in Windows phones...I really need closer explanation on this...Maybe step by step
I download file that you gave me and now..? :silly:

On your phone go to "Settings/Update & Security/For developers" and enable "Developer mode" (this is only for W10M Insider, not for 8.1)
also dont forget install WP SDK on computer for XAP deploy

Im using 8.1 and I don't have that option...I have Update & Backup. So I need W10...I still dont have update from my career.
Can I update on some other way dxdz?
I must install this, right?

SDK 8.0 is too old not recommended... you must use newer SDK...
full VS comunity free version (but dont forget to enable phone tools installation -
)
or SDK 8.1 lite http://dhost.info/vink/avink/forums/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=4&sid=ccbd2d48ec5475ae2495402fe47fe82f
and Win 10 not officially relesed. only via insider testing

ok, what should I do after I finish this? like in this description https://msdn.microsoft.com/library/...UsingtheWindowsPhoneDeveloperRegistrationTool ?

Cant communicate with device...

you dont need to run developers tools, only installed...
to deploy XAP file to phone use deploy tool, but dont forget first upgrade to Windows 10 and enable developer mode

you dont need this because this is developer unlock for 8.1... not need for Win 10 because is already have option to developer unlock in phone settings (i told you before: developer mode in settings)

Yes, but this is confusing for me...

Windows 10 not released yet and you need to join test program called "Insider"
join with your microsoft account to https://insider.windows.com
install Insider app from store and with this app you activate upgrade to Windows 10...
dont forget, Windows 10 for phone is still in testing stage and have many bugs and problems...

Ok, this help a lot...But tell me, if I do it and after that I want back to stock. Can I manage to to that?
