I was exited and tried to use the cab sender batch program and I upgraded from 7720 to 7740 and then 8107 and now on 8107 when I press the phone icon I can't get it to open it will half open then close, anything I do wont work, and now I cant call anyone that isn't in my contacts. (can't access the dial pad)
What I have done:
1: Hard Reset the phone didnt work.
2: Try to use cab sender and downgrade to last working verison of 7740, but cab sender says " no applicable packages"
3: Battery pull
What else can I do?

Not familiar with cab sender hack. I assume this bypasses the need for zune. Zune does a backup that could be used to restore previous versions of the os. If you have done previous backups, you may want to consider the zune restore process, reverting to a previous is version. Then you can allow the normal update process to take place.
Good luck.
Actually that worked! Thanks, so if anyone else has this problem, what I did was restore with zune and then I just went from 7720 to 7740 with the cab sender because I knew that was the last working version.
DVP phone app error
can't seem to find a backup file before my 8107 update is there another way to roll back/ downgrade cab files or force update a different cab file?

I am on XBmod and Yuki's 7720 mango.
The day before yesterday all my sideloaded xaps would not open and returned the "revoked by microsoft, please uninstall" message.
I read around and it seems that the phone had become locked (possibly interop locked), so yesterday I tried to (b)ackup and send the DEV_UNLOCK.CAB which succeeded to install. However I still got the revoked message.
So I did a 1234 gogogo reset and set up activation etc. Interestingly, this did not affect my extrapartition as I assume a settings/about reset would. Also interestingly, I was able to (r)estore from cab sender, and all my apps reappeared (I did not check if SMS were restored doh!), but the revoked message reappeared too!
So I did another 1234 reset and set up phone and zune, and was able to sideload apps again. After a while of access to these apps, suddenly all of them wont open at all. On touching the app icon, it does a wiggle and thats all, no message.
So I tried to send DEV_UNLOCK.CAB but it didn't work because already unlocked.
Also, I have exceeded my 5 phone zune limit and can't sync apps until 23/10.
I have a feeling that we need to be full-unlocked as in DFT rom,
Also I might try WP7 root tools (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1265321 interesting reading) after another reset.
Does anyone else have this problem with this ROM or any thoughts?
Edit; WP7 root tools unavailable for htc as yet
Edit 2; found to be advanced config tool 1.4/tweaks/prevent re-lock. Do not use this with this ROM it somehow interferes to ruin your xaps
Is anyone having success flashing Mango on their HD2 through Zune?
I was able to use the "force" method to update to NoDo (7392). But Zune will not find any more or the Mango update no matter how many times I try the "force" procedure.
I've installed the latest drivers through Windows Update.
Its a known fix for some including myself..send the devicepro.cab via cab sender and then hopefully zune should find 7720

I've never been able to figure out how to install cabs on my HD2/WP7. What is the procedure for using can sender?
Here is what I get when I try to install the cab.
Wow haven't seen that error code before
when u download the folder there should be a tool update folder select x64 or x84 according to your pc
Download device pro.cab place in folder no other cabs and hit the cab sender

Okay...so I put the device pro in the x64 folder, then run cab sender?
EDIT - still no go. Zune still won't find any other update after NoDo.
The screenshot of the folder is where I put the device pro cab.
I finally figured it out. I put the cab sender file in the x64 tools folder and also the device pro file in there and hit cab sender. It updated and then began the OS update. 7403 was first then 7720.
However, after installing 7720, it rebooted for the purpose of checking for more updates. The phone froze after booting. Now there is a cleanup update for the beta files but it errors out.
Well done...you were not meant to put them in that folder but if it works then why not...have you installed the beta update then? So the devicepro.cab made a difference
Zune can be very tempermental, with the beta update i manage to install it after 8 or 9 tries...in guest account reserve space 15 % and on welcomepage..

Yeah, thanks for help. But I need to know how to send cabs to my HD2 with Mango. I'm not succeeding. Can you please explain in detail where the necessary files need to be and what files need to be there?
I'm trying to remap the buttons so that the call button is set for the camera and found a cab for it, but I can't get it to install.
Eh...nevemind, I accidentally figured it out. Thanks for all the help, though.

you need to put the cab (OEM_DEV_KEYBOARD_2.cab or OEM_DEV_KEYBOARD_3.cab) that you want to send into the "WP7 Update Cab Sender" folder, next to the WP7 Update Cab Sender.bat file and the tools and logs folders.
Delete or remove any previous cabs that are there.
edit; oops i am getting slower, well done
Hello, I recently flashed my Omnia with mi7ROM 8773 and wanted to perform a backup using Update Cab Sender. Everything seemed fine untill the progress hit 100% and sat there for what seemed an eternity. I waited half an hour, but nothing happened, so I disaconnected and powered off. The backup however does not show up in Zune. The same happened with EasyBackup tool. This ROM should be updatable via Cab Sender, so I have no clue where the problem is, in this way I am not able to update in the future, please, help. Thanks in advance.
Yes with this ROM is possible to update via CAB sender
Please Read Info about update over cab sender by mirolg
For Back-Up i think is possible but when will be an update available

Yes, I am aware of that, problem is, the update process did not even have a chance to start, as the backup preceding it got stalled.

What you wish to update via CAB Sender?
Before update with CAB Sender you have installed "if needed install this tool"?

Right now, I don't want to update anything, I have a freshly flashed ROM and installed all my apps and stuff neatly set up, so I just wanted to perform a backup of this state. As for your second question, yes, I did install that tool.
PS: The opening post contains logs collected by UCS if anyone wants to have a look.

When there is an update to do just press B "Send to device Cabs with (B)ackup"
I don't think you can do a Backup using the CAB Sender without put an Update

I already did that multiple times, all you need to do is to put ANY update cab into the folder, it does not matter if the update is already installed. The tool will display an update failure, but the purpose is to make a backup, which is done. Yes, I know the routine, B for Backup before update, S for sending cabs to device directly without a backup before that. My problem is that I am not able to perform a backup. If there was a real update available, I would not b able to install it with the B option.

Hello, I use mi7rom_v1b_6 lang_05.04.12_tango 8773_FW_11.11.2. Your ROM is btw excellent. I know it's bit off-topic, but I'm experiencing another problem - on several occasions the phone failed to boot and ended up with a plain red screen and I had to force power off. This happened several times, but on one occasion as much as three times in a row, it booted successfully on the 4th try. I did not make any non- standard tweaks. As the author, you could be the best to look into these issues. I also wonder if anyone else is having them. Thanks for the great job an your reply.
the full red screen after boot can causes on the tweak "fix 32- bit mode". look in advanced Config app and if is selected, then unselect it.

Hi, yesterday, I tried a backup again, with the same result, but this time the backup showed up in Zune. So I went ahead and tried the cab version of contable's skin and all went fine. Then I tried to restore to the backup made and all seemed fine, but the restoration process got stuck at 99% at this time. Then the phone rebooted, but went again to download mode. I disconnected, but it did that again and again. So I ended up with a half-bricked device that I needed to re-flash. Now I wonder what might be the cause. The thing is, all this went down on my second computer, so it is perhaps unrelated to the PC side.
Posted by mistake, please delete.
Okay, I tried update WP7 through zune but it freezes my hd2 and makes me reflash WP7. I read that the only way to update was through the cab sender. I have downloaded all the necessary files to update, all I need to know now is how to work the Cab sender Cause i dont know how. Alright, so I got the cabs for the update, but Is there a certain boot process or something?
Everything you need from Mango (DVPs normally upgrade to Mango on their own) to 7.8 is there..
#1 - First be sure your phone has gone through the normal procedure to 7720 (Mango)
#2 - Then go here: https://dl.dropbox.com/u/15491148/Update - DVP.zip
Done.. and done..
This worked amazingly well - thanks for posting all the right info and files together in one easy place!
Thank you! It worked!!
DVP help
Attached is what i'm looking at is it supposed to say "ERROR: no update found"
Also how do you know why it update is finished? I ran all 7 cabs through the sender and nothing happened.
Currently on 8107
im on build 8107 will this still work?

OK.. First off remember to move the CABs in order to the folder th BAT file is in, don't move the BAT to the CAB folder.
This will work with any version post Mango.. Just start with the set of CABs you last ended with.
IE, if you have 8107, go to the folder after 8107 and use those CABs..till 7.8..
Other tips..
1) Make sure you have upgrade via Zune to Mango first
2) Make sure Zune is off
3) make sure you install the WP07 support tools before running the BAT file.
4) to ensure a clean install of all filess.. Hard reset the phone. Before installing all the CAB files.
Hope that helps.. Remember when all else fails read the directions.

OK..
> First off remember to move the CABs in order to the folder the BAT file is in
> Don't move the BAT to the CAB folder. (It won't find the program files it needs that way)
> You will know it done with each step, when your phone and the command line says Success! (This will come up each time you go through the Update procedure)
> Don't try to run the BAT file without moving the CABs into the correct folder (results it will not finding the files to update with)
> Don't try to run all the CABs at one time (From all the folders) also can cause problem
> DO copy ALL the files from the INDIVIDUAL folders for each run.. (Some updates required 1 file, some 2, some 3, etc.)
So remember :
Create folder and unzip all the files and folders into the directory (We will call it UPDATE and put it on the desktop for example)
Install WP7 Update Tool (See folder --> update tool - INSTALL FIRST)
Start by moving the files in CABS/7740 folder to the main UPDATE folder you created (the one with the BAT file in it) and run the bat.
In command windows hit <S>
Let phone go through the upgrade process
After successful upgrade, move the 7740 file(s) from main folder, and replace with CABs from the next folder (8107) in the order
Run the BAT again.

Also, This will work with any version post Mango.. Just start with the set of CABs you last ended with.

Yup, I upgraded my son's from 8107, just started by using the next higher numbered CABS folder. Thanks to the OP!
Just followed this on my unlocked AT&T DVP. Went from Mango to 7.8 in about 30 minutes total, with no issues during installation. Still testing the phone out o see if everything works, but so far so good.
Awesome stuff dude, thanks! Very easy to follow instructions that are noob safe.
Worked.
Thank You.
FWIW, I had success upgrading using this method from 8773, without resetting the device.
Didn't work for me!
I have DVP unlocked updated to Mango but this didn't work for me, Error is attached. This happened with every folder. I tried upto 3 ..
Updated Successfully!

I already had the 8773 update, thats why I was getting error. I started from folder 8779 and it worked fine.
If you try to run BAT file as Run As administrator , you will also get different error related to update file not found.. so make sure just to double click to run bat file or run through command prompt!
Awesome
You are GOD in my eyes !! ;.)) - totally worked ! - i had a 7720. fw in my dvp, - i upgraded with these cabs , and voala - it's worked !!
=.))
Thanks a lot! Sprinkled your magic dust, said the magic spell and it worked!
Awesome utility!
A big thanks to cdgoin for writing this incredibly useful program!
Had a couple hiccups getting it to work for me...thought I'd post them for the benefit of others...
1: I was getting a 'Choice is not a recognized command' error message initially. Turns out I guess XP doesn't have choice.exe installed by default. Got a copy from Microsoft's Windows 98 resource kit and installed, only to have it tell me it didn't like one of the command switches called in the batch file. Went in with a text editor - Looked like the /N switch was OK but the other wasn't (/M?). Deleted that and was finally presented with the menu as described.
2: But then, pressing 's' results in long error message about 'Retrieving the COM class factory for component with CLSID blahblah failed .....error 8007007e'
Deduced it was trying to call an unregistered DLL. This may have something to do with my Zune installation being on a separate partition from my windows installation. Went to the directory I'd put the WP tools in and registered the Microsoft updater's DLL from the command prompt: "regsrv32 wm7update.dll".
Following this, all worked as expected!
wifi issue?
Any one else having wifi connection issues after the update?
I can longer connect to my APs.
Thanks
What about live tiles? I read that live tiles are a mess in 7.8.
fixed
