Hi, i just got an activation code for HD7 but before i activate my wp7, what does all the other stuff do on some of the different forums for activating live services?
All i would like to know basically, is if i activate my phone with the code will marketplace and htc hub be available for me to use and download apps? or do i have to do all the other stuff before I can use that kind of stuff?
Thanks for your time
Yes, you need to do the other stuff so that the market sees your phone as a HD7 rather than a LEO(HD2).
Thanks, ill try the other stuff, its just the chevron stuff thats not working so far.

That is the guide you need to use to properly unlock/reg hack/activate your phone and to keep it unlocked. (unless you choose to relock). Also remember to use TOMS Deployer to install the xaps or if you use the WP7 dev tools to deploy remember to run the XBMODDeployer manually.
PS. You could have answered your own questions by looking at forum stickies instead of creating this topic.

you can use them without unlock.. just read developers note carefully before installing them..
most are in .cab format, which means you just copy the .cab file to your Diamond and then run it from the phone.
You dont need the phone to be unlocked, we're not fruity fan boys

The one-click root works on the AT&T version. You will need to sideload the apk file using ADB or Android Central Sideload Wonder Machine (SWM). There are several threads here discussing this. Try doing a search of this forum.
wow not much help
Somd people get errors when using the sideloder and dont even get me started on just try fixing the error or googleing it.
It sucks that such a forum exists and people arent willing to help there to lazy since they already got the help they needed and dont wana contribute since.there are users also having the same frustrations they once had!
people just dont want to have to answer the same questions over and over again when a simple search would turn up the answer.
So far I think this forum has pretty much answered every problem ive had with my x10 and its usually already been answered and I havent had to start a new thread.
thing is some people arent that computer savy and really would like to get the most of their phone without screwing anything up and i mean all this apk and sdk and seus ect... can get some people confused if it could get all tied up into one simple explanation that could do it also theres thousands of threads on this forum having to do with rooting i dont think one has enough time to be looking over every single one of these threads it is pretty DREADDDDFULLLLLLL
IF you need help rooting PM i will gladly help you out

There is a post in the Q/A section where I posted how to fix the issue where the phone isn't detected. I'm pretty new to android myself, but I've been in IT for going on close to 15 years now, so if I don't know exactly how to fix it I sure as hell can figure it out. The best way I've found to get SWM (it's really adb that's detecting the phone) to see it is by removing the sdk if you have it (just the 1.6 files), uninstalling the driver from device manager, and redownload the 1.6 files for the sdk. I've done it a number of times and it's worked every single time.
I don't think I have full root though, but all I really needed root for was to remove the at&t apps. I used SWM to sideload the exploid one-click root apk (x10root), ran that to get the SuperUser app, then downloaded Titanium from the market to remove the AT&T apps.
Ok, I am a noob to the HD2? I have a galaxy s; however, my friend wants me to unlock his HD2 to run android. He just bought it so it is still on windows mobile 6.5. I know this is a nooby question.

I guess you dont wanna use the search function here, so google these things
1. HD2 SPL Downgrade (If Applicable)
2. Hard SPL2
3. Magldr HD2 install
4. CWM for Magldr install
5. Install Android ROM on HD2
Good luck my digital brother

i think this post is really what you should take a look at. its very detailed and should give you all the info & software you'll need to install android to your nand. it is written so that anyone can understand and in simple terms.
then after you install Android a good question to ask your friend would be does he want a sence rom or something else. this website here is the easiest way to search for Android ROMs that are listed here on XDA. i would also click "show all android roms/builds" because there are a lot of older ROMs that are still as great or better then some of the newer ROMs out there. i could suggest some but im sure what i like may differ from your friends so i would take a close look at each ROM from the site listed above. to shorten the list down some for you i probably wouldn't look at ROMs that haven't been updated since like april.
His choices in ROMs would be sence based, a non-sence based like cyanogen or a miui based ROM similar to that of the iphone but with widgets.
unlocking a phone refers to sim unlocking where as rooting a phone refers to gain root/superuser access what is what your trying to do.

Hey you can unlock your HTC HD2 using the codes. There are many providers offer this unlocking service.If you need,get it from http://www.unlocking4u.com/ ..After getting the code, you may follow the instructions here,
1. Switch ON your HTC HD2 with a Not ACCEPTED SIM Card.
2. If your HTC HD2 asks for a PIN code, then enter your SIM card PIN and press OK.
3. HTC HD2 will ask to enter an "unlock code".
4. Enter Unlock Code we send to you.
5. Your HTC HD2 is now unlocked.
*NOT ACCEPTED : We mean, to use a Sim card from a network other than the network your HTC HD2 is locked to. .

1. Don't bring back old threads which have already been solved unless you are asking a similar question and that thread is the best place to ask it.
2. Did you even read his post? He used the word 'unlock' incorrectly, he meant to ask how to flash Android.

Well it still has windows phone 6.5 and i would love to have the newer version of windows phone but i don't know how to do it. i went to a webpage to see a tutorial to install wp7 on the device, i installed the •MAGLDR 1.13 , HSPL4, and Radio 2.15, and seriously i dont even kno what are they lol but i got to the point i had the magdlr installed on the htc, the website told me to download the rom but it didn't exist anymore because of the fbi thing of megaupload. So im stuck in this step, so please guys help me what to do next step by step so i can get wp because i dont really know how all of this works. And can i get the latest version of wp from where i am at right now? thank you guys i would appreciate your help. I've heard that this phone is epic yeyy!:laugh:

I cant see where in your tutorial is this mentioned.
If i call contact support do i just say is an htc hd7 or is it fine to say is a hd2 with a rom on it?
On page4 in the tutorial from dxdy is standing:
Live service activation
- Go to Microsoft support.
- Change region to United States.
- Load again Microsoft support.
- Select: Microsoft Customer Service - help for general inquires
- General Inquiries about Microsoft Products and Services or Genuine Advantage Questions
- Chat in English language and ask for Live activation code for HTC HD7
Or try to search here in the forum! There are a lot of postings regarding the activation from marketplace!!

This is some ground-breaking stuff.
I'm very interested to see what we are going to get from this.
Doees this mean that lumia phones can be-are interop unlocked?

May be or may not be. I've not research yet on it.
Those methods also work on any OEM Device, not specific for the Lumia.
Well, this is a potentially phenomenal breakthrough... Nice research!
Looks like it requires installing both apps to the SD card, correct? That means you need to have an SD card and WP8.1. That's still a heck of a lot more phones than we could unlock before!
Time to explore this...

Yes, Required SD Card but there no need to Deploy both apps. i mean now apps can be shared globally
We can shared app packages with the NI Images.
Edit:
I'm Also started to do investigation for Non-SD Card devices and i hope i'll get the success. because i'm 2 steps ahead there too (But it is very Hard to achieve, there is no success guarantee)
Could you explain how I would do this using htc rather the a lumia device. I cant seem to figure it out.
Also you mentioned you can write to the registry. If that is true, then you should be able to make your device interop unlocked by setting the max apps to 99999
@snickler
Microsoft didn't developed any patch for SD Card.
I'm on latest build dp 8.10.14192.280 (known as Critical Update).
My another thought is get this method on running WP8.0 GDR3 firmware, having 8.1 developer preview and running WP8.0 App packages. It would be a nice as my prefer.
If you have any problem or confusion, then PM me. I'll be there.
Hmmm.. this doesn't make sense to me why it's not working.
for the ones who have a sammy i drop the xap here , I used sammy diag app for it.
@ceesheim
Yes, now Samsung firmware can be freshly Jailbreak on 8.1
What did you do man
That's great
Wonderful
We are not there jet , but the possibility is right on the corner
@ceesheim
Would you mind creating a Xap for HTC as well. I cant seem to get it to work on htc one m8.
We need a Nokia library that uses RPC or IOCTL to make registry changes, the more arbitrary the better. Something like Samsung's RPCComponent DLL. Working on it...
