[HowTo] Guide To unlock HTC Trophy. First steps and some free apps

This is guide on HowTo unlock your trophy ...Μost of those info are scattered over the xda...
I put them together as an easy to use guide
At this moment only rom version 7004 and 7008 (pre-NoDo) can be unlocked.
There is a new try by the devs here to unlock the post-NoDo roms...
OK lets start ...Download and extract this file package...
A. ULOCK
1. From your PC: Send a mail to your self (to an account that is accesible from your phone) and attach the
ChevronWP7.cer. file.
2. From your Phone: Open that mail and press the attachment (ChevronWP7.cer) to download it..
Wait unil finish and pres again to install the cerificate
3. Download and install Windows Phone Developer Tools from here.
4. Connect your phone to your pc with usb cable and make sure zune software has see your device and is
connected (not as a guest but a full). Also ignore/cancel any update messages from zune or your phone...
Finally make sure your phone is not in the lockscreen but in the home screen
5. From your PC: Run the app ChevronWP7.exe. Check both boxes and pres unlock.
6. If all went OK then you just Developer Unlock your device and you can sideload application.
B. Prevent from re-locking
Download and install in your phone the app Advance Configuration Tool 1.2 In the settings there is an
option to prevent from relocking...
C. If you have problems
1. Disable Firewall and Antivirus and put your phone to Airplain mode
2. The chevronunlock application runs only on Windows vista and Windows 7. Not in XP.
3. In your pc registry editor make sure the this key is like this:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\SOFTWARE\\Microsoft\\WindowsPhone\\ProxyPorts]
“DeviceReg”=dword:000069C5
4. Any programm that use the Https protocol must be disable (skype is one)
5. Make sure the file hosts in the pc \Windows\system32\drivers\etc is NOT read only.
Here is the file package
And here is a video that i found on the forum
The file package has and some apps like WPDeviceManager.exe and MarketPlace_setup.exe.

What todo and where to go ...After the unlock
1. Now you are ready to install all the updates from Zune until your rom has the number 7392.
2. Setup your e-mail accounts.. from Settings/Emails Accounts
Warning... Your first windows live account that you will setup its the only one that you cant delete
3. Here also you can setup your facebook account. If you dont want to have all the FB "frients" in the contacts page the go settings/application/ people and check there.
4. Install from the market FAcebook and other apps from the market
5. Install Tom xap installer (in the package)...and now you are ready to sideload any application (xap) file that you want to your phone..
6. If your language its not one of the 4 natives ones then you want to install the application Native Keyboard...(in the package)
Its supporting a lot of lang by changing the German or Spanish keyboard...
The second file package contains the following apps
1 Native Keyboard - (in the package)
2. Registry Editor (in the package)
3. Βattery tool (in the package)
4. Facebook and FIM (MARKET)
5. Htc Apps (more that 10 apps from HTC )(MARKET)
6. Flixter and IMDB For movies fans.. (MARKET)
7. Shazam . (MARKET)
8. Wonder Reader και Tech News Now -- RSS google reader (MARKET)
9. Tile Notes- Yellow notes in live tile
Here are the apps not in the market

I will post some Free apps here
Please feel free to post any application that you want here

You should probably edit your original post for NoDo
Nevermind, sorry, I didn't that you already mentioned that. Maybe make it bold... And mention that Verizon phones come with NoDo in the flash - no way to flash back to 7004 or 7008...

Thanks for this guide.
Have a trophy updated to 7390, but restored back to 7008 with zune.
Sucessfully unlocked and ran advanced config tool and checked the "prevent phone from relocking", had to enable airplane mode for it to work, but suddenly now it seems to stay unlocked in normal mode everytime i open up zune.
Can i assume that now it would be ok to update to 7390? how about 7392, would that work too?
Edit: Works ok with 7392, still unlocked.

Did the same as espeneppi...restored my Trophy w/ Vodafone Branding back to 7008, but now chevron is giving that error message (make sure zune is running etc..)
When my phone was 7004 I had successfully jaibreaked w/ chevron
Anyone can help??

How can the device be unlocked if it is not accessible? I can't do anything on the phone. The device is stuck on boot loader screen and thats all it does.

What did you do and you had your phone in that state ???

Hey i wanna try this but how do i know whit rom i got? is it hardware revision nr ? this is : 0003
i live in norway..

Hello ... i tryed this guide ! i worked until the step when im going to "run" Chevron i get this message its not possible to run couse it cant find my phone mace sure its connectet etc etc.. i dont know what i did wrong??
installed the devployer thing.. i worked!! but now the program crash.. chevron ..
i run it and boom.. the program has stopped running bla bla bla.. strange.

The device has a demo loop on it and I was trying to install four of the roms that ansar had posted but none of them worked. One of the roms put the phone in this state. I don't know what to do?

OK, thanks for guide. Two questions:
I will unlock regarding this guide my Trophy with 7004. Then I will prevent it from being relocked. Then, when Mango will go official, I will make update from 7004. Will it go directly to Mango, or will it make updates from 7004 to... and to... and at least to Mango?
Will phone stay unlocked after going to Mango?
Thanks for answers!
PS: Do you have some hint for free app to editing registry values? I need to change one value before Mango update so it will download Mango in my language...

I cant deploy anything after update. Is it locked again? ((
How to check is it unlocked?

nice guide ,thank you

try to upload any xap file and u'll see unlocked it or not

So I wanna buy a trophy, but the unlock and xap sideloading is VERY important for me.
Does this still work with mango ????
Thanks!

I tried this on Windows 8 and it doesn't work. It says I need Win 7 or Vista.
Could Anyone please help me?
Is the Windows Phone 7.1 SDK close enough? (Works in windows 8) http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=27570

Again: If the device sleeping, after I plug the AC on the phone its waking up, but don't charging.

hi, i want to install this but currently i have 7720 installed with 4.6 bootloader.
if i want to install this i need HSPL/RSPL but i cant install it because it will brick the bootloader right?
so what i need to do to install this? i aware that i need to install older version with lower bootloader version but i cant because without HSPL/RSPL, i get invalid model id error, any solution to this problem?

i went to htc website and cant find download for the official rom too

Ansar, love your work with these Roms but I have one small question. Why do you insist with putting the English US language in the European Roms. I mean yes we do speak English in Europe but we do not speak American English. Our spelling and use of words are different to the US. Also I know its only a small thing but the .com,.net,.org button should actually lead with .co.uk. Yes I know its not that hard to type it but it defeats the purpose. As I said love your work but this is very annoying for me and probably many others that's why im sticking with the DFT rom for now.

Succussful installed after downgrading to this --> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1020957
but i am not able to deploy apps into it, is it possible to deplay apps into mango?

Hey, thx 4 cooking
Got a few problems:
1) I recognized that the app-list isn't seperated into the different letters any more. In 7712 it was.
2) I can't sync with Zune anymore. Already got the latest Zune version, but i can't change the sync-relationship, my phone is only a "guest". Even manual sync does not work (drag and drop music at the phone-symbol at the bottom left of Zune). It says "added 1 album" but does not do anything.
Thx in advance.

[Q] How to get the latest Mango official release

So it's out, but only for some users.
Im currently with NODO and doest want to mess with the back to the future procedure.
Zune tells me my phone is up to date.
I have tried the disconnect trick - no success.
Anyone here managed to get it to work?

I'm in the same position, same phone set up and rom, just tried the Zune trick about 30 times and no joy. Am UK based on Virgin. The suspense is killing me

Me too
I've tried the trick with both with WIFI, and Cellular stick several times.
I'm from Israel on Orange.
Do you think carriers have something to do with that?

same here US T-Mobile

The "back to future" process has been simplified making it less risky if i may put. I wasn't too sure of myself either whether i could get it done. But then after several reviews found it simple and got it running.

What exactly do you mean by simplified? I installed Back to the Future V 2.0 and connected to Zune and let it update to 7392. I didn't want to mess around with all that other stuff. It was too confusing and I decided to just wait for the official release. So, since I just have 7392, which I installed via Zune, over the foundation of Back to the Future ROM, I assume that I will be able to update to Mango via Zune too...am I right here?

Goy it!
I was missing 2 things:
1. Device provisioning cab
2. patiance at the 6th step (Restarting) it takes alot of time

I don't know if this is a help to your problem but try to change your location to the US in zune profile. I did this and got no problem updating the rom through Zune.

Yes you are right but since I didn't opt for that I can say much about that.
This is what i did to get to 7720 RTM Yuki-Xbmod
since you are on 7392 i believe you know the beginning.
What you need:
Yuki native v2 (7004)
7004-7720 (one shot)
wp7 update cab sender.zip(wp7 cabsenderwinxpfix.zip -if you're using win xp-read further on this in the thread)
Device provisioning.cab
You must have zune
All in first post of Yuki-Xbmod "Back to Future"
Steps:
1.Install Yuki native v2 (7004)
2.Follow on screen instructions and set time zone,date and time.
NB:make sure it corresponds to that on the PC
3.leave the phone on don't power off,connect USB from PC to phone-
**Time to install 7720**
4.At PC, enter wp7 update cab sender folder
5.Go to "if needed install this tool" folder
6.Install setup - update wp(x64 for 64bits windows or x86 for 32bits windows)
NB:You can verify this at the Device manager on the PC
7.Copy device provisioning.cab to wp7-update-cab sender folder. Important,please don't extract this(device provisioning cab)
8.Run wp7 update cab sender.bat
9.Then on the PC keyboard,type s-(s)end cabs to device
10.After finished installing close wp7 update cab sender
11.Delete device provisioning.cab (ie. the one you copied into wp7 update cab sender)
12.Open wp7 7004-7720-patch.zip
13.Copy all the cab files to wp7 update cab sender folder
14.Run wp7 update cab.sender.bat again
15.As usual type s-(s)end cabs to device
NB:I believe it depends on you SD Card it should take about 1hr to 2hrs. In my case 1hr.
16.After installation reset your phone (ie. Go to about) it's important.
17. YOU ARE DONE. YOU NOW HAVE RTM 7720 YUKI-XBMOD
You can now proceed to do the official thing if you like.

First It's stated in the Back to Future threads that others have same issues. I think I even saw a post with tweeter link stating you can't get it done with 7392.
Second,I'll advise you start with stock Rom.Safety First. Try and get the SD card unlocked and formatted and follow the earlier guide and I bet you'll in no time have Yuki-Xboxmod RTM 7720.
And my SD Card was in phone from beginning to end. No problem at all.

Error 800B010A - You can try this
Heya,
I tried to update our beloved HD2 today...well I got the dammit 800B010A error all the time (approx. 15 times). I tried the USB update thingy but no success.
If there are still people out there who are struggling with the error:
After checking for USB drivers you can try to:
1. Take out your SIM card!
2. Increase the "reserved space/storage"! (I'm on german zune, so I don`t know the correct wording). You find this when you are in Zune (on Desktop PC) under Device - Settings.
At least the update directly worked for me after increasing the space from 5% to 15%.
Take care.

in the cab sender, there should be 3 folders, one of them says if needed, install this tool. try installing that (there is 1 32bit and 1 64bit so just install the one for your system). also make sure the cab sender app stays in the same folder as those 3 folders. so in the WP7 Cab sender folder (or whatever the main folder is called)you have:
FOLDER: if needed install this tool
FOLDER: logs
FOLDER: tools
and the WP7 Update Cab Sender.bat file

thanks gonna TRY NOW ill report back

hi

Unlock Mango (7.10.7720.68) on Omnia 7

Hi
I have a Samsung Omnia 7 of Mango (7.10.7720.68), I want to unlock it to be able to install the xap file.
Is there already a way to unlock the Omnia with Mango?

search button wouldnt hurt...
omnia with mango nope, but omnia with pre-nodo yep
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1152422

I can use the search option.
But I am interested in unlocking from Mango, no Nodo.
I have no backup, I bought the phone already installed Mango, which is why the question of unblocking from Mango.

I have a similar problem! I had chevron unlocked NODO but whe i upgraded to mango the phone was locked . Is there any solution to get the phone to keep unlock?

I see that it requires a side-load app. How do I get the phone (Focus/Mango) to sideload apps if it isn't unlocked already. I know I'm missing a step, and can't seem to find it in search.

I know the original post was for unlocking mango without reverting back to 7004/8 but I don't think it's possible at this point. However I eventually found getting to chevron unlocked mango from unlocked nodo very easy thanks to snickler from this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1224139 but it took many headaches to find his info so will reproduce here with 1 slight alteration now official mango is released over zune.
From snickler's instructions (follow his post to get links)
**Make sure you are UNLOCKED already and on NoDo**
1. Grab the following tools
Unlock.xml XAP - Here
WP7 Root Tools 0.5 alpha - Here
Samsung Tools - Here
2. Deploy all 3 XAPs to your phone
3. Open WP7 Root Tools
Swipe to the right in order to access the "Explorer" file system view.
Press the (+) at the bottom to create a folder in the root
make the folder name "provxml" and press Done
check and make sure that this folder is created in the root
4. Copy the unlock.xml to the provxml folder
use instructions from the unlock XML Xap link I've posted above.
5. Follow Mango Update Instructions:
Zune should go through 2 updates to get to mango 7720.68
After the update, uninstall Diagnosis from your applications list if you had previously installed it. Then dial ##634# and press call to (re)install. In the diagnostics app dial *#9908# to open the GPRS Manager. You should see an "unlock" entry from the drop-down menu.
Select the unlock.xml and press Save. It should give a message about Loading the GPRS profile. Let it sit for a few seconds then press done.
See if you can open Samsung Tools afterwards. If you can, then you are unlocked. WP7 Root Tools will NOT open in Mango.

i have wp7 root tools working in mango.
i made all the steps with said, and unlock interlop.
works fine

Like already said before: It isn't possible to DEVELOPER-UNLOCK Mango as long as you didn't prepare it while running an older version.

Hello!
I have Omnia 7 with mango 7720, i have never updated it, i got it like this when i bought it.

Is there any way to unlock or "jailbreak"/root my device? ive red about nodo version but as ive seen i cant do that on my phone due to the update.
Is there any way. And yes ive searched the forums but cant find anything that informs any unlock or root for this only for the same version with nodo.
