Is it possible to install the official facebook app without using the market? I am in a non-market area so it does not work for me at this time. If someone could post the freeware facebook app for phone 7 that I can install either via email or the "application deployment tool" for devs I would be extremely grateful!
Here ya go, just unrar and sideload it onto your device. (Use Chevron to sideload it, guides all over the WP7 forums)
Fantastic!! Deployed it and works great! I actually love WP7 except for market not working in Norway. Will maybe flash again to make it work with foreign live account.. thanks again for FB app! And thanks to DFT for WP7 for HD2!

You don't have to flash it again, hard reset will do it. Than use new live id and activate again.
hard reset and flash is almost same thing isnt it? I will loose all my settings either way

Yes sir. Just that hard reset you do not need a computer. Just hold volume Up + volume Down when "1234" appears in MAGLDR (The black screen). Then follow the instructions on the screen.
Yes, It is possible
After I activated my device then I installed the official FB from marketplace. It is working, no need to restart my device.

I have done a lot of reading and research and non of them worked for me or there could be sth I dun understand.
I have installed the certificate, make sure only wifi is on, then plugin the phone and wait for zune to pop up. Than run ChevronWP7. When I click unlock, it does not unlock the phone.
Also, all the sideloaded apps including XBMODDeployer.xap and TouchXplorer.xap is not working. I'm receiving a message that it got revoked and wants me to uninstall the app.
Will not consider hard reset unless that's the last option.
Please help out! Thanks
Many Microsoft Apps kill the Chevron Unlock, but it should be no problem to unlock the device again.
Also I had spend 8 hours in trying to unlock WP7, until i found out, that Skype block the Chevron tool.
Install the certificate and connect the phone with zune when Wifi is OFF! Then unlock your phone. I would say it would be better to unlock the phone only to deploy the config file and change the phone information to hd7. Because everytime you connect to zune it relocks again.

Thanks for all the reply. However I still have not find the reason why my phone cannot be unlocked. I do not have skype installed, but I will try uninstalling other apps and see what I can get.
SOrry I didn't make it clear earlier. When I said wifi on, I mean wifi on only for laptop, not the HD2.
I'm also wondering, from the tutorial I've read. In order to sideload app I need to have Zune running. Is there a way to sideload app another way?

Not anymore, you can do an easy fix (with out reg edits, or install adv config and edit reg) See top of forum page

Have a look at the sticky thread, honestly all the unlock info is there. If you follow the good guides there EXACTLY, you will not have a problem. Dont rush it bro and all will be well.
Hi
I have update my HD2 with the XBmod-Yuki "Back to future" ROM.
I am trying to Sideload some apps, but it doesn't work.

But what I want is to change the model of the phone to HD7 so I can get marketplace working, but can't seam to find any guide on how to devunlock the phone or get marketplace working on this rom, anyone who can help?

have you done hard reset after instaling? sideloading requiers it.. (settinsgs/about/reset)
Tom's XAP will report that it has failed, but it works. You have to have Zune running and you have to be on first or app screen. Not on lock screen.
Hi
Thank you for the quick help, it was the Hardreset I had missed.
[EDIT] Tom XAP Installer actually does not fail now with the 4 XAP files I have tried [/EDIT]

Doh... I needed to hardreset trice before it worked, was close to ripping the (very little) hair I have left...
Thanks!
Market works fine with the phone recognised as HD2 for me... no need to change to HD7.

does this mean I have to get a new activation key (for hd2) when I install this rom? I got one with a DFT derived 7392 rom recognised as an hd7.

It may be worth changing it to HD7 as MS are possibly snooping.

this error comes if your wp7 isnt unlocked anymore.
you must chevron unlock it again then you can start the apps without an error

Hello
I was wondering what happend after using the hard reset method 'camera - volume down + power button".
"Then press Windows button twice to confirm."
What happens after this?
The device will be back on 7004 build (the one it came with) / i'll have to flash a rom on it / ...
I don't know what happens at this point so I want to be sure.

no, it erase your Isolate Storage with all your personal settings and erase all installed apps. after reebot you still on your last build, like 8107.

Really? Because it asks me to format.. So format seems a bit more than just erasing personal info.
I always though hard reset would bring the device back to original state (incl build)
So there's no way to go back before mango, besides flashing?

Had nokia drive xap on it, by using Samsung tools it messed up the whole thing and i had again maximum unsigned apps on it so it wouldn't start anymore (incl samsung tools, advanced config, registry editor etc..)
I want to be able to have all of that back, but at the moment that's not possible with current setup.

Yeah I noticed (the hard way) And for some strange reason the button to click 'restore' was not present in zune.. stupid thing
What do you think of this one?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1571068
Can I just flash it like other roms?
Or do you advice another one? If you could help me with that ?
I have a samsung omnia 7, location: belgium, not provider linked (i read all the time something about providers en locations so I thought it would be useful to mention it.

Thank you. I have flashed it with tango V3, works great and love the full unlocked features like "download from IE", change search key to open another app etc.
And now all of my interop apps, nokia drive 2.0 especially, are working again
Hello forum,
I am very new here. This is the first time I tried installing windows 7 rom on my phone and I am so glad that XDA community have made it so easy to do it. I installed PDAimatejam 7.5 tango latest rom posted in the forums. After installing the rom i setup everything and went to market but could not download anything it required activation code. So i got one from microsoft and entered it. The phone got activated however I still cant download from market. It goes to setup market account window and then fails to do so and gives me error code 8000FFFF. Any ideas?
Thanks a lot.
try with WiFi not cellular data...
if problem continue, make hard reset (settings - about - reset) and try enter Live ID again

your card is locked if you tried Yuki (BTTF) ROM... this rom is only which lock card.. if you not use Yuki ROM then simply is compatibility problem (card not damaged, you still can use it)....
if you locked card then first unlock it with sending DEV_STORAGELOCK.cab file to phone
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1250869
then format it with
https://www.sdcard.org/downloads/formatter_3/sdfmt3_1.zip
install and run, in option select "format size adjustment" to ON, format card
also if you have old Nokia symbian phone you can try format locked card (just skip when ask for unlock code)

Thanks I am trying that now. Btw what is the reason i cannot access market>? even after my device is activated. I think I will go back to android. Loved the interface though. This was my first time on windows mobile and i loved it really. I cannot access market so I think I will be missing a lot of things. I will give it a last try and then go back to android if I am unsuccessful yet again. In the mean time please keep posting ur suggestions. Really appreciate it. Thanks
first time in most case marketplace work sometimes you need to wait...
no rules...
also is better to use WiFi internet connection not data connection
also be sure you have hardware radio 2.12 or 1.15 flashed on phone..
also dont forget, HD2 device is not original WP7 device and anything can happen... also almost all problems with WP7 is related to incompatibility with SDcard...

Thanks. I had installed yuki to check if i could download from market.but it did not so i reverted back to pdaimatejam rom just to get sd card damaged message on first boot so I tried like what you said, installed yuki again so i could unlock the card and its giving me the same message on first boot too.
boot to magldr menu
* 10. Services, 4. UseLast24NAND
* 10. Services, 5. ClearSD MDR
* go to 5. USB Flasher and try flash Yuki ROM again
phone after flash must start WP7 and the you send cab file for unlock... this is only way to unlock card without old Nokia phone
p.s.
here list of confirmed phones for unlock locked cards

Yup thanks a lot. I did as you said and my sd in unlocked and i am back to pda rom. But still no market . I tried using wifi. but still cannot access it. It cannot detect my region. Right now Im in thailand. Could that be a reson? Market is not supported in Thailand? It tries to detect my region and then gives me error code 8000fffff. Ill wait till tomorrow and see if things get better. Anyway thanks a lot!!!! you guys rock.:good:
Thailand have marketplace
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsphone/th-th/default.aspx
also go to settings - region+language and check region
maybe your Live ID already locked to other region? then maybe to open new Live ID? to change Live ID, go to Settngs - about - reset (this is hard reset) and after restart setup new account

I tried that. Made a new live id itself before activating the phone and used that one. but still i get error message when its trying to setup my marketplace. It says loading in country list then gives me error msg and asks to try later. Someone was telling me abt chaveron unlock or something like that? And what does market fix mean in this PDA rom? I thought market would be working out of the box. The version of windows is 7.10.8779.8. Everything is working like a charm except market . The phone is so snappy that I just dont want to go back to android. Will that chevron unlock thing help me? I dont want to try without asking because yuki rom already gave me enough trouble .
I feel so ashamed to bother a lot, but I know nothing about windows phone and I just cant get past this market thing. Thankyou very much for all your suggestions. Please if you dont mind do keep suggesting me some ideas untill i fix this damn thing.
forget chevron unlock... this is very old way unlock and not working with new ROM's... now all ROM's are full unlocked and this is 100% better than old chevron unlock
did you sync phone with Zune?
if nothing helps, try use US English marketplace... dont have any other suggestion...

How to change your zune account?
you need zunetag (gamertag) if download not working... not need for changin zune account
login to xbox.com with live account and set gamertag
for example (https://live.xbox.com/en-GB/MyXbox/GamerProfile)
