is this the 'official' HTC messaging version 1.8 that was released/hacked a while back?

Has anyone tried this yet?

i´ve tried the update.
HTC Messaging is now really fast, but you always get a Message Sent notification and there is no option to disable this.

Aww... not even with a registry tweak or anything?

try the attached file - in return please check for me the version of that new sms message client. thx

I cannot download from Europe 1 or 2 locales, but can from US, although when I tap on the .exe file once transferred to my device, nothing happens - anyone else experience similar?
In addition, where can I find out the version information of HTC messages so I can check my current one?

[EDIT] Double posting.
Stupid system... stupid poster...
[Mod - please remove or can we just have a "delete own posts" option?]

Experiencing the same error. Sometimes when I run it I get an error stating it's not a valid Win32 application.

HTC Messaging Client 1.5.2016.2424
I looked into this package, and seems this is newer then the HD2 3.04 rom, which that version was 1.5.2016.1228. I converted the exe to a cab.
Here is the EXT for Chefs.
I'll be trying this out and seeing if there is any improvements.
*Note this EXT does not include all the files needed, replace these files with existing EXT Package, or create a new EXT Package.

Its should be run from your phone and not your PC. But even so, nothing happens for me!

Tried downloading it from the HTC site & the Megaupload mirror, but nothing happens when trying to install it on my phone. Could be because i'm using a newer rom? (26 june NRG rom)

I got this hotfix is not comapatible with your device..

I get the same error. I tried running it on the stock Tilt 2 rom. Seems like the enhancement could apply to Tilt 2 rom as well, but HTC only shows this update on the Touch Pro 2 section of their site...

I also received the message "This hotfix is not comapatible with your device" I am using a Sprint TP2 with WM 6.5

I removed the Cab because it will not install, something with the Cert in the EXE file didnt carry over. Here is the FULL EXT Package for Cookers, testing at the moment, it does work with All Sys Builds, currently testing with SYS 21908. also works with SYS 21665.
Will try Cabbing it a different way and Post it, sorry everyone for the prior cab

wp7 first update process recording. hd2 Please do not update

1. phones are connected to the computer tips, zune tips Update - This step updates zune
2. Update finished restart the computer, mobile phone and computer still prompts - this step update wp7
3. Phone restart the update process twice, the first mobile phone icon appears on a mobile phone and computer icons, that is being updated, you can not disconnect the cable
4. After completion of the second telephone restart is complete.
The following is the outcome:
1. Update completed - but prompt registry error, error code: 80180089
2. Phone also, as before, has not been re-locked, it now appears the update was not successful does not bring any bad influence
Off-topic:
1. My hd2 has been disguised as hd7-through change registry
2. Microsoft Hong Kong live account is given - call me in the past to the
3. Usually use the normal function (including the market, simultaneously, zune show hd7, found my phone) - does not appear abnormal
hd2 Please do not update:
1. After the update failed to install the xbox game market, reboot several times, has never been this situation before, do not know how it is
2. Also automatically crashes, are several times
Alas, only to re-install wp7
Look forward to an expert forum to identify and resolve, ha ha

I have exactly same problem. What the solutions may found? :||| I need updates.
Some people say that to reset phone and after that on HD2 updates will be work. How u think it will be work? And when I will reset my phone, it meand that I will lost all my phone data? or it possible with some ways to save a data and when make an phone reset.
Please if u have any ideas respond me about my questions. Have u tried phone reset method?

Hi
Me too.
Got this damn error code: 80180089 when tried to updae my HD2. It says that it cannot backup my phone due to a registry change. There should be a way to update without having to backup first.

Same Problem with my HD2. I do not want a damn backup. If something goes wrong i would simply reinstall everything. That is annoying. I Hope there will be a solution comming up. :-/

hi
in the process of updating - registry error, error code: 80180089 on my HD2
but works fine. yet...

I think we need registry data of original wp7 to install update, because our cracked windows registry is demaged or not full. have someone tried to reset phone and install update on wp7?

do any of you actually read the threads? dont update tot he new version

i have read and why don't update a new version? it seems that problem in registry and some users who updated their phones it works fine, not blocking and chevron tool for deploying xap files still exists. i think its not harmful for our cracked hd2 to have an updates.

tried to update my hd2, too and got the same error. but no problems appeared... so i guess i just wait until someone finds a solution for this

Error on update WP7/HD2
Same error here, but works normaly after restart. It just can't back it up because of registry settings....

The update doesn't work for anyone with HD2s... it was known from beginning that automatic updates would not work with HD2... we have a ported wp7 on our devices.

Tried a reset and the update still did not work. Same registry error. Not surprised just want to try and share the info.
First I got the error code 801812C1 but after two retries that went through. The registry error code 80180089 can’t be bypassed.
Manual injection of CAB files in the future I guess. Yes I know custom ROM on a unsupported phone.
Don't kill the messenger. I'm just sharing info here.
Used XP SP3 with newest zune software.

Looks like some other guys with samsung omnia7 have this issue with the update and microsoft is working on it. I guess that will be solved in a few days

Do you think we will be able to update our HD2s then?
I don't think so, but I like surprises

Probably will not work on the HD2 since its most likely looking for anything funny in the registry. Pick your choice, not the right hardware, hacked OS, chevron, side load apps, custom settings. Unless if people that have virgin phones and still get the same errors then anything is possible. They might have to allow future updates to have more variations or be more lenient on what its looking for before the patch gets installed. That’s my two cents anyway.
Phones: G1, ATT ARIA, HD2

In a microsoft thread, I read that the problem with samsung omnia 7 is about backing up the phone. The same as HD2. So I think there might be some hopes for us

maybe the problem come from detected usb hardware driver that seem to be different from that in hd7.. i say this because when the hd2 display shown the icon of pc & hd2 , after the first reboot, a symbol no usb connection appear.

Its a pointless update, why bother...

Tried... but failed

No, I'm sure that was just telling us not to remove the USB connection ha ha. I just tried the update, same error code. Remaining hopeful that this is same problem as Omnia or whichever phone was mentioned before, but I have doubts and wont be too shocked if it has nothing to do with it and we cant update the OS this way. If this doesn't work someone will come up with something. Might just have to reflash with each major update. It wuld be annoying but its better than nothing ha ha.

Customized ROM from HD2 can't Update the OS! HD2 owners should wait until devs cook the update in their Roms! This update is pointless but actually Microsoft made this update to prepare your phone for the next update! (??LOL??) I know that you guys made the tweak in order to disguise the HD2 to HD7 but still... So be more patient or buy an official WP7 as i did!

NoDo. Want to get it right now? [Not tested with HD2 yet]

So NoDo was finally released this morning.
Well, for the EU people anyway (don’t get me started).
Windows Phone 7, by default, stores your operator identifier in a sneaky registry key, which is checked by the Windows Update Client running on the phone. This identifier is then used to check if the updates have been approved for your operator. If they are slow, like Telstra here is in Australia, you’re going to be waiting a long time.
So, let’s tell you how you can “un-brand” (this won’t remove the boot splash screen) your phone so it appears to be a generic handset to the Update Servers.
Your device needs to be dev-unlocked for this to work. Sorry folks.
1. Download this zip file and deploy the 3 xap files onto your device.
2. Run the ChevronWP7.Ringtones.xap and wait till it displays “Ringtones added… and CustClear.provxml underneath”
3. Run the TouchXplorer app, navigate to My DocumentsMy Ringtones click on CustClear.provxml and select Copy from the Application Bar.
4. Navigate back inside TouchXplorer to the Windows folder.
5. Select paste from the Application Bar, this should scroll right to the bottom and put a copy of CustClear.provxml in the Windows folder.
6. Now run the Connection Setup application and click on the Ok button (it’s the one with the tick).
And now you’re done and free to re-connect to Zune and check for updates.
Again, this is ONLY for HTC devices.

Hi guys! I didn't test this method for HD2 yet cause I still on Android. Try it out.

Has this been cooked for the HD2 already? I'll give it a try as long as I know it won't brick my HD2

IT ONLY SHOWS PHONE UPDATE FEB 2011
any idea why i am not able to see nodo update

There is another thread about this already in Q&A and General. It seems as though this method is for native WP7 devices to work around zonal or carrier based restrictions.
It has been tried on an HD2 in the other thread and the same registry issues that affected the February update prevail. This does not appear to be a solution for HD2 owners.

just tried out and still having the error happening same error

Yeah, this tread can be deleted, seems to be not working for hd2 in any way.

i have big problem my phone is locked ... and i cant unlock it since they disconnected the unlock tool what should i do guys

okay okay i fixed the unlock thing and everything and did this but this didn't work out on hd2 .. ill try more and let ya know guys

Yea, just playing around, problem is in registry.

hello,
do you know if it works on HD2 ? if I try, will I keep everything (sms, apps, ...) ?
thanks !

This does not work, it has been said hundreds times

Has everybody been taking crack lately?
How do you expect to be able to do a official update to NoDo when our roms are modded to work on the HD2, its not a native rom so even if you could get it to update through official channel it would very likely break the installation anyway.
Use some common sense guys have some patience and wait for the update to be cooked into HD2 rom.

[Q] ISV Beta Cleanup CAB?

As the title says, is it possible to get the cab files for beta cleanup update? I cannot get the update to install through zune (same error as many people have experienced) and so far i havent found a solution that works. CAB file would make it so much easier!!
I have an unlocked (as in operator unlocked) HD2 with the Xboxmod/yuki v2 ROM. currently on T-Mobile US but when i return home I will be ok T-Mobile UK

For those having trouble updating through Zune for ISV cleanup:
1) Make sure you turn all sync options off; do not let the phone sync while trying to update
2) Make sure you have some storage free on the SD card. Delete a couple of apps or music track etc...

when you say turn off sync options, do you mean music, images etc in zune, or the acconts sync on the phone (email, facebook, twitter etc)?

Not sure how important the sync options are for either, I think the important thing is space on the phone for work to happen in.
??? If options are not set to manual, deleting media from the phone will cause Zune to sync when you reconnect, refilling your SD again. ???
A bit of trial & error from you can clear that point up.
??? Zune makes sync a priority when options are set to defaults (Auto), maybe this is an issue, as in taking up processor/Rom capability ???

got it finally.. after installing Device provisioning.CAB over the one shot CAB installtion...
Zune will show the Beta update.. try multiple times.. mine got it working on 8 times...
if you came from One shot CAB Mango RTM, install the device provisioning and try...

I had one install that was done through Zune, then I reflashed and used the one shot cab. Tried the device provisioning cab but made no difference. I don't think it is a storage issue, I increased the reserved space to 15% and I have a 16gb SD card, which after a full sync has about 8gb left. I'm going to try uninstalling the drivers and Zune and reinstall. I also have a virtual pc that I could try. Seems a bit extreme just to get an update to work!
On a side note, I think I am failing at the transfering to device stage. It goes straight from 0% to 100% in under a second. Its a similar story with downloading. Maybe there is some currupt update file that is causing the problems

i used the one shot cab then install provisioning cab had same problems until i went into zune and and set sync options to manual and took out sim card reserved space set to 15percent. hit update there u go. maybe 2 or 3 trys at the most. should work

It worked for me tough not from the first time but I also had this "jumping progress bars" so I think that's no issue just keep trying (that's what worked for me^^)

I Did one shot metod with out provisioning so im thing i never used a beta hence i would not need this update but im unshure?
i do agree a cab file would be usefull!

tried the cab with cab sender, some certificate error...

i eventually got mine to work through zune, i did a restart, then ran ccleaner to get rid of all my temporary files and connected to a different wifi network (i was travelling at the time). opened zune and it went through the update process no problems. i think my issue was some kind of download/timeout issue. it seemed to take more time on the downloading stage

DVP Mango EM App

I finally got my hands on the 1.12 Engineering Mode application and have decompiled it (see attached (decompiled - not working really))
And Guess what?
I Found the File Browser !!!!!
When you go to the RD Test -> About page enter in FB or 983 and BAM! File Browser!
It is limited (can only read text files), slow and hard to use but hey it's a file browser!
Incase you were wondering, here is the URL to the package:

There are 188 different menus in this application!!

I hope you're successful!
This are indeed great news.
You're contribution to the DVP is great.

I found the URL where the mango cab was from Microsoft's windows update. From there I just extracted the cabs and the xaps.

that's pretty smart
may want to get in touch with notebookgrail since he performed a similar inquiry with em.xap

I already read and tried it. The problem is there isnt a custome boot loader available for the DVP and you need the cab.pks files to be signed by microsoft.

FWIW - the File browser in DVP is a plain old binary/stream reader. All it does is just reads each byte by byte and is programmed to parse for folder and file. Hence, it's useful to read text file. It can also read any file for that matter (bascailly like opening a dll or anyfile with notepad) - as long as you have patience starring at the dark screen .
FYI - this filebrowser is there since 1.10FW.
This app is really useful if you know the exact path of the file you want to read. All u do is write a short code and make a dev app that will take input of a the path and just spit the contents of it. (i had one a while back, will dig and see if it works in Mango). Again you will get tombstoned by the MS security.

I'm in EM and click RD Test. I have a textbox. How do I get to the file browser? I entered 983 in there and nothing happened.
EDIT: Nevermind, you type in *#6336#

I need some help from a DVP AT&T user with mango and all that Jazz installed.
Download the Windows Phone Device Manager from http://www.touchxperience.com/ and install it. Connect your DVP wait 30 seconds and then run the WP Device Manager as administrator. It will take a few seconds to a minute and download and install the touch explorer applicaiton. It should now conect to the application and show an image of the DVP on the desktop. If not turn off wifi, click "PC Connection" once (it will fail), hit cancel at the prompt and then turn WiFi back on. If you are connected to your home router we can connect over wifi to your desktop. Click on PC conneciton again and this time it might ask you for your computer's IP. Enter that and it should connect. Without closing the app now or letting the screen turn off go into WPDM and click on the File Explorer. Click on Windows and then find the EM.xap file. Attach it to a post here so I can see if the AT&T version is any different than the T-Mobile version. I doubt it is but who knows.

Here you go, from an unlocked AT&T device. Doubt it's any different.

Darn it looks the same. I was hoping for something new to exploit.
