How to: Developer Unlock Windows Phone (free) - Windows Phone 8 General

Hi,
There have already been many videos and threads on how to developer unlock a Windows Phone, but all the other methods don't work anymore. Here is the new one that will hopefully work a bit longer.
Here's a video tutorial where you can see everything step-by-step.
Hope I could help.

Other legit way, mostly for russian-speaking audience, is the registration on www.intuit.ru, passing a few exams and get the DreamSpark for free!

Here's a video tutorial where you can see everything step-by-step.
You just need to register a EDU-mail account, which you can do at following page.
https://banweb.kccd.edu/dev/default.html
Here you login using your Student's ID and password.
https://banweb.kccd.edu/prod/twbkwbis.P_WWWLogin
Now you need to setup you EDU-mail account with google.
http://email.bakersfieldcollege.edu/
Register as a Windows Phone Developer and select "I'm a student". Click on the link of the error message and verify your account using your EDU-mail.

i founded a error in this site banweb.kccd.edu/prod
do u have another link ?

You don't need to do this anymore... you can get a 2-app-limit dev unlock for free (just download the SDK and use the developer registration tool with *any* Microsoft account).

With these, even with the dreamspark account, you could only get 3 apps, is there a "free" way to allow up to 10 apps to be sideloaded or is that ONLY on a $99/yr account ?

It's only $20 now, not $100, but I don't know of any current free option.

Just submitted my school ID Card and got verified in 3 hrs
Got the registration code too and successfully registered

How ? Mine still gets to the 3 apps, then it errors out if I try to install a 4th...
I guess I will just have to wait to see if this "Luimia 920 unlock" comes true, then I don't have to worry about the limits any more.

I really have no idea. Wish I did!!! Whatever happened wasn't intentional on my part and not sure of the conditions under which the dev reg app was run when I unlocked. I followed the tutorial for using a student email account through Dreamspark and ended up with 10 app limit.

Apparently people who recently registered through dreamspark get 10 apps. I still had the 3 app limit too, until I registered for a full developers account I had a coupon code that made it free. Not sure where I got that from....

I'm a verified member of DreamSpark but can someone tell/guide me how to register on their site for the developer tools that enable to do this, and get 10 apps?
Thanks.

Is this still available? And if it is, is it limited to Windows Phone 8 only?
I tried to register some phones (all Windows Phone 7) of my friends but didn't succeed

Worked fine back in January, when I last tried it. What error did you get? I'll admit I was trying WP7 not WP8, but it shouldn't matter.

OK, there's been some changes in developer accounts in March 2014.
I used to have a student account but it's not working anymore. Neither does the trick which is described over here.
I dunno whether it has something to do with the thing that I'm still using WIN XP and SDK 7.1?

the OP was edited. This is much simpler.

I gladly paid for mine.
Payment server
I was going to pay for it too. But I don't trust their payment server. I should be allowed to use Paypal and not need to enter my personal information again. So sorry Bud but I don't trust a method where I log into Paypal, and then get sent to a window where I need to enter my address, my phone number etc.. doesn't feel trustworthy. I have never had to enter my information after I used Paypal for something and I am not about to start.
I guess I'll go back to sensor lock and just have to fix the code to allow the phone to answer. I would have supported his effort but not if I need to re-enter my personal stuff that Paypal has confirmed. :
OH SNAP!! I just realized it removed my outlook email account on my device and keeps crashing SQB. I don't think anyone should install it. Seriously this program is malicious code somewhere

...definitely no malicious code in PocketShield. This is one of the best locking apps available. Customer support is second-to-none. Updates come thick and fast with new options and settings. Superb software - just buy it!
I second that pocketshield is an excellent app and have experienced no malware-like effects
has anyone come across an issue with it not locking when waking up?
Mine stopped working and now doesn't lock unless I run the Lock app.
Make sure you have latest v2.1.1
If power off with AeButton or other way not the standard power off, it might not lock.
regards
mine locks very well, but i suggest asking for help @ pocketshield.net there u can speak directly with the developer ..
Pocketshield ROCKS! and the developer has been super-responsive to enhancement/bug reports.

Uninstalling pocketshield
I installed Pocketshield on my phone, then uninstalled it because it was making my phone crash and ending up with a blank screen that was impossible to take out, and now, the phone skin is changed to the theme that comes with Pocketshield. I removed the program, but I can't go back to the original phone skin that comes with the HTC Diamond. How can I go back to original settings without doing a hard reset?
HKLM\Security\Phone\Skin\Enabled=1
Softreset
Where you using the official and latest version? Rare issue...

Tnx u are a lifesaver. I had the same problem, dld new version ystrday.
Tnx again
Have you gone through the settings?
I have an HD2 as well and no problems! and so my fellows who recommended it to me.
Pocket Shield
I have tried both Pocket Shield Protector and Pocket Shield Proximity used in conjunction with VolumeX.
I have tried nearly every possible combination of settings to achieve what I need and I always seem to hit one snag or another.
I originally purchased Pocket Shield Protector and VolumeX. When my blue tooth answer button stopped working I switched to Pocket Shield Proximity and Jim was nice enough to switch my registration from the more expensive Protector application to the less expensive Proximity application. I have since asked Jim to move my registration back to the Protector application but he hasn't as of yet.
In general this is a good application, however, it lacks polish on the basic functionality.

Installing Copilot v8.0.0.327

Ok.
So i got it installed using a program from Market using AppsInstaller.
Its now installed on the device, when i boot it up it gets a error and closes.
Saying
"Invalid Library
CoPilots code cannot be loaded by the system"
Anyone got any ideas how to fix this at all?
Thanks
Just download the current version from the market It has been altered to be compatible with Nexus One.
Dayz
coPilot 8.0.0.327 is not compatible with Android 2.1, you have to install coPilot 8.0.0.571
Mod edit - Request for warez removed. You could be banned if you continue this behaviour
Y'know, its a really good piece of software that does its job at a very reasonable price. Also, you can try it out for 10 days first.

Has anyone been able to get ALK to transfer their CoPilot license from an old phone to a new one? I bought it on my G1, and I emailed them about getting new keys a few weeks ago but they haven't responded.

Yes, to several devices. I would use your google checkout email that you recieved from ALK - You need to send them your new IMEI and they have always sent me a new activation
Dayzee
Their support e-mail form is borked; it keeps telling my recaptcha responses are bogus .. and they clearly aren't. At least, most of them aren't.
Do you have a support e-mail address that works? I've tried [email protected]. I don't see anything published on their website.
My friend just bought it for £20 off Market. Think il invest since its so cheap.

I haven't deactivated copilot on my Hero before installing in Nexus and the Spanish support team has been very fast and responsive.

My experience matches yours. Downloaded the app on my N1, entered my order number and that was it. No need to contact Alk at all.
You dont really need to contact them unless you subscribe to live traffic or anything "extra" subscription"
Another way around if you subscribe to live traffic, is grab your data folder for ALK.copilot from your old phone or backup copy, that you should have..
Install copilot on your new phone/rom, prior, before starting up copiolt. Copy the data folder into the new data folder it creates.
As i said before this is only for live traffic.

How did you download it via the market place without buying it? I could only see versions you had to buy to download?
When you buy from the market, you get an email from google checkout/ALK services which has a link to contact the "seller" about the purchase - I've always used that to tell them of new IMEI
Now, when I first changed my device (G1 to Ion) I thought i'd be OK just redownloading onto new device, since all the maps and copilot folder was still on my SD card cos I swapped it from my G1. However, after an update, it stopped working and kept saying it needed an activation code. after a few emails to support, finally figured it was the change of device, and the activations are linked to IMEI - just sent my Ion IMEI and all was good again.
What happens is that the purchase info clears you to install on a new device, but the LICENSE info is still linked to the previous IMEI. It usually works fine for a week or so (Probably a 10 day grace) then has problems. My advice is to let them know your IMEI is "incorrect" and send them the correct one. They usually (In my experience) reply quicker when your enquiry is via google checkout link - and have replied within 24 hrs to my requests. Reply often advises you to start again and redownload maps etc but i've never needed to do that.
I have now been able to use copilot on my G1, Ion, Hero, Milestone, and nexus without having to repay - the price of this software is excellent for what you get - don't stiff the company by illegally installing, people. ALK are doing a good job

It will go live very soon. Some can, some can't.
Beautiful though. Good sign of things to come.
Anyone else get "Invalid Request" after trying to sign in? It looks like a site error rather than a browser one. I get the same message from multiple browsers.

i got that from the main page, but then i clicked on an app to dl and it sent me to an actual login page. i didn't login cause i didn't actually want to dl the app, i was just checking, so it might work that way.

Tried again. Working now. Might have been the traffic / popularity of the site.
Not sure if you guys watched the honeycomb announcement, but it was amazing. Made me want a tablet, and donkey punch an ipad user.
Forgive my ignorance, but what is exciting about web access to the market? Is it supposed to be better than our regular market app?
The Hotness! Logged in. See all of my apps. Can download apps from the website will sync immediately into your phone!
Way to step up android!!
You can browse on your computer, then install the apps OTA, so to speak. Easier to link to apps you like, install them without taking the phone out of your pocket, for example, that kind of stuff. It's just more convenient in some situations.
Well, I just thought of something.... does it work with custom ROM's? I just downloaded something on the net, and it hasn't really downloaded on Bionix V. Maybe I should go on over to the Bionix V thread and ask.
Unfortunately, it is so pointless right now because it can't function correctly over wifi only* connection. It just lists it in my market place under "My Downloads" and not actually installing the application.
I am using wifi only, because 3g is cut off in my office building.
*NOT on wifi but WIFI ONLY

Well I'm pretty sure all developers keep the fingerprint as the old eclair build for proper regular market access. Obviously I have no idea if this website would react differently. Who's to say it's not just as problematic on stock builds though? It is a brand new site after all.
Edit: Well I tried it out for the fun of it. It shows the download trying to take place on my phone, but the progress bar does nothing. Then again, I get this fairly often with the regular market too.

yes, you can install an app, but not it will not activate without having it already configured
AntiDroidTheft is a very good one
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.android.antidroidtheft
and then you can find your phone online
http://www.antidroidtheft.com/
unfortunately for it and all other similar software to work, you will need to have had it pre-installed and configured
Anti DT requires the least config to work
if you have a smart Coder friend, maybe he can upload a new version of this App modified to install and start automatically with a predefined secret password
then you install it from the new Android Market
and it will install and activate itself on its own, and you might have a chance at finding your phone, and trace it to where the guy live
will tmobile be able to help at all if i call them because none of my frienda would be able to make that program. thanks though please any ideas

You can download this app: https://market.android.com/details?id=org.gtmedia.findMyPhone remotely to your phone.
Then send a SMS to your phone with the secret code and command. The default secret code is 1234.
List of commands:
1234 help
1234 locate
1234 alarm
1234 wipe (wipe sd card is not set by default)
1234 calls
Unless your gps is on, the location of your phone isn't going to be accurate. Just hope that if a person did steal the phone, they won't be removing the app. Since when the phone receives the message, it will play the ringtone and notifications will pop up.

I'm only asking because you didn't mention it specifically, but did you try the simplest method first of calling you're own number and seeing if someone answers? Also, send a text message to the phone saying please call me.
You said "seems like" someone took it. Maybe you dropped it or left it and an honest person has it and will gladly return it. Worth a shot if you haven't yet.

Did you actually try it yet? It works for me. I tested it.
Go to the market and have it remotely downloaded onto your phone. Then send the phone commands.
If you can't get the app (or any other app) downloaded onto your phone for whatever reason, then of course this won't work or any other method that I can think of.
I wouldn't be suggesting it if it didn't work. What's the point in doing that? I got nothing to gain from it.

I'll confirm this works. I just went to the link you provided earlier on my CR-48, then told the Market to install it to my phone which is across the room from me.
I waited a few minutes, then used my Google Voice web account to send the "1234 Locate" to my phone. A few seconds later I heard a text message arrive on the phone. A few seconds later I got a text message back from the phone that said my location would be determined in under 5 minutes, and then about a minute later I got another message from the phone that was the latitude and longitude of the phone, and then another link with a link that opened Google Maps on my laptop to right where my phone is.
AWESOME.
I've got WaveSucure & MobileDefense both on my phones, and this is simpler and easier than either of those. Good find.
The only negative here is that on my other two phones when I tried to install it on them, the Market told me that I hadn't logged into the Market on those phones in a while and that I would have to open the Market on those phones before I could remotely install. I'd have been screwed on those phones.

Did you actually try it yet? It works for me. I tested it.
Go to the market and have it remotely downloaded onto your phone. Then send the phone commands.
If you can't get the app (or any other app) downloaded onto your phone for whatever reason, then of course this won't work or any other method that I can think of.
I wouldn't be suggesting it if it didn't work. What's the point in doing that? I got nothing to gain from it.

if you can't locate your phone after a few days
report the IMEI # as stolen so they can block it, and make the phone useless for resale

How to bypass Google verification on Zte Axon 7?

I've tried many ways on YouTube none have worked. I found out a way to get on the Android launcher but when I try to factory reset it doesn't let me.
Generic solution to frp is to access browser no matter which one. Except for samsung phones and not all of them but a few. Accessing browser you need to download two apps. One is quickshortcutmaker and second is to download old google manager for log in but it need to be web log in. There is ton of videos out there. The reason you want web log in is so you can add additional account to that device. The rest is history.

Man I've had this problem before when I was on B20 Stock. I just waited 48 hours and the FRP cleared up.

I know about this one. Some Samsung phones have issues with this when u change password. It takes forever. U need to access share button in beginning of verification. Share button either name share or 3 dots or 2 dots connected. Try every single app choice u get. Apps itself is not the reason but web browser is. There are some apps which lets you share further. And there you will find browser icon. Try weshare!!!!!!
I never tried this on Axon 7 but i assume its similar to Lenovo A series with their own copy whole phone type of app. It lets you enter browser in that app. I assume that weshare is behaving in same matter.
The order is like this
You have google log in screen. Either you try there on log in or you try while accessing wifi. There is always some hyperlinks there like help, feedback, policy, security etc etc. When ever there is hyperlink then there is couple of options. Then you need to access copy paste by holding marked letters to access share or open in browser etc etc. From there is easy if you can access web browser. Follow youtube for rest.
The only time screw up messes "everything" and there is "nothing " you can do then wait is when you delete iphone from your own icloud so you dont have icloud on actuall device and then want to change password on pc while two step verification is active. That is a nightmare. It cant take up to a month before apple makes it done.

Actually no it hasn't been 3 days I remembered I reseted my device from powering it off when I was trying to fix it so that would mean that the time would reset meaning I have to wait 2 days more to see if it will disappear. How long ago was this for you?

Ok but I can't find a Google account manager app that has worked yet. All the ones I find are for Samsung devices and not zte. If you have a link to the gam APK please link it to me

It was 48 hours for me exactly when it was fixed. Usually I heard it takes at least 72 hours to get cleared up.

I typically used their voice unlock to get in the settings or using the keyboard on the setup to get in settings, went to backup and account, pressed factory reset and it didn't work. I waited 48 hrs, then it let me sign in.

Hey don't know if you have seen this but I would try to use this app. I haven't had to FRP unlock a Axon7, but I have had a bit of experience in taking FRP off of phones along with many other fixes. If you can get to chrome or whatever browser and download and install this then it should work. I have used this on a ZTE ZMax Pro, so I would imagine it would work here unless they patched it. Anyway, good luck and let me know if you need more help.

Hmm... Well as I have not needed to FRP reset my Axon I can't really tell you exactly what to do. All I know is that method works on some and not others. Really what you are trying to do, especially if you can use the web login like someone else mentioned, is add a Google account that you remember how to login too. Then when you factory reset you should be good. If that doesn't work I say either try to reset the password or whatever Google account is on there, or maybe EDL mode programs which I haven't done much with. I'll keep looking for another way.
Edit: btw the web login you can try to use would be with the com.rootjunky.frpbypass-1.0.apk 1.17MB on the same site I last linked. That along with maybe one of the other Google account managers that are listed there. Good luck!
