Hi,
I have the HTC S621 from Rogers in Canada. I tried to install Route66 Navigator 7 and it sayed that it couldn't modify some registery keys, so i tried to application unlock my s621 and with all the fixes and utility on the web nothing worked.
Is there a way to application unlock the S621 from rogers?
I don't need to fully unlock the phone, just application unlock would do for me.
thanks for your help and time.
Unfortunately you have to unlock your phone (CID,SIM) before the app unlock will work. I had the same issue and did not find any workaround... On the other hand, if you're going to fully unlock your phone, may I suggest flashing to an S620... To provent further issues. Read the step by step in the forums on how to complete your flash first or else you get a Euro keypad.
HTC S620 ROM : http://rapidshare.com/users/7UE30C
That makes three of us.
I did the same thing.
Paid for the unlock, then i was able to app unlock the phone.
Well i guess that i will have to do that then.
But putting the original HTC S620 WM5 or WM6 on my HTC will it improve speed? functionnalities? Or just make it possible to install any application and put in any SIM card that i want??
I just don't want to pay again, and get so little improvement.
Executing Programs...
How do you execute the unlocker? Install on sd card then run app from pc? Or run from phone? How about the new rom? Not very clear on how to run these programs with active sync. First smartphone
MY question is... if I pay for the app unlock, and then install a ROM (say the T-Mobile WM6 beta or something of the sort) if that ROM has the locks in place again, do I have to pay AGAIN to re-unlock my phone apps?
Because that would really suck.

run the unlocker staright from your pc when your phone is plugged in and after it syncs. you dont need to put anything on the sd card at all. on your phone you will be asked if you want to install, hit yes, etc. same as running an install from your phone after that..

app unlock is free, CID/sim unlock is what costs money. you wouldn't have to pay to CID/sim unlock your phone it still will be. plus you have the unlocker already anyways. and you wouldn't pay for the app unlock cause it's free anyways.
never mind.. just read it over and everything made sense..
BTW, Could I get the phone unlocked from my provider? Do they just need to give me an unlock code or something? Or is the best bet getting it unlocked by a 3rd party?
NOTORIOUS VR said:
The problem is I can't application unlock my phone for some reason... just like the OP if I run it (even using u'r instructions above) it doesn't work. It gives me the error message Phone is not unlockable
I've tried doing it manually through the Registry as well... but I get an access denied error message when trying to store the values.
Is there any other way to get around this? It's really annoying that I can't install certain things.

I was only telling you what you're going to be paying for, sounded like you said you were going to pay for app unlock...

If you use the signed registry editor from HTC you could have app unlocked.
See here:

Thats the proper way to do it.

It's cool.
And I think if they would just unlock it for you it would go against the reason they put the lock on it, to keep you with them. So I believe only 3rd party is the only way.

That won't work because it needs RAPI to be activated. You definately need to use the HTC registry editor I mentioned, that will def work. Post what your actual problem with that method is.

Where could i get a good ROM to install on my new unlock S621 ?
or the question is, wich ROM do i use ?
I still want the phone to be usable.
Is there a way to backup my current ROM in case a problem happens ?
Thanks.

RAPI is remote api, which is something that you execute from the comp when the phone is connected - i.e. why its called remote.
RAPI is disabled on most operator's branded phones, hence why your file doesn't work on the Rogers one. You need to unlock using the HTC registry editor i mentioned by running it on your phone.

I found a way to install my self-signed cert.. just drop me a post on this thread and I will post instructions.. very easy to do.
I have been trying to add a self signed cert, and I keep getting the error that the phone is locked. The cert worked fine on my wizard. I cant figure out what the problem is, can you help me out.
would also like to know how to, please ! but mine would be on my universal
it's pretty simple:
1. download the program file called VZW_SpAddCert.exe from Microsoft. It is designed to work with smartphones made by Verizon Wireless but I have discovered that it works with most all 2003 and WM5 smartphones.
2. copy the program and your .cer file to the root of the smartphone.
3. go to File Explorer on the device and run the VZW_SpAddCert.exe application. It may ask for your permission to run, click YES. It may come back and say no certificate files found. The application will exit. Next, still in file explorer, click on your .cer file and it will ask if you want to install the certificate, click YES. Done!

I'm having problem with the cab file. Thanks for your help.
Lets have a little more info please:
What precisely do you do to install a cab file?
Do you copy it to your device and click on it in file explorer?
What error message are you getting?
Does this happen with all kinds of different cab files or some specific ones?
If it is certain cabs tell us where you got it from and what it is for.
Also if you purchased your Touch from a cell-co it may be application locked.
You should check the Touch forum and the WiKi for unlocking procedure.
P.S. This is not CID lock. That would be irrelevant to 3rd party software only to changing ROM.
I'm new to this phone. How can I install it into my Touch? I'm lost on the installation.
B the way, If it's locked, how can I unlock it? Unlock SIM?
Thanks in advance.

That means this device has already been unlocked (duh).
Contact the HSPL developers, they have a ticketing system on their website if I'm not mistaken. Basically every phone is put into a DB so it can only be unlocked once. After that, you have to beg for mercy to get it unlocked.

you can check if it has already the hard spl> push, volume down+powerbutton+reset , if it says olinex hardspl then its unlocked already.
This tool is to RELOCK your phone (NOT UNLOCK!!) This tool only works on Samsung devices!
So why would you want to lock your phone?? Well, one reason: to do a legit unlock.
Many of you may have used all kinds of methods to unlock your phone and then applied the "Prevent relock" settings. This also prevents to do any further locking/unlocking. You can't do a legit unlock, even if you wanted. Also, if you relock your phone you may not be able to unlock your phone anymore. You lock yourself out, because your phone can't communicate with the Microsoft servers anymore. You will first need to restore the settings for this communication. If you don't do that, and you lock yourself out, only a hard-reset will safe you.
This tool will completely restore your unlock settings: This will LOCK your phone back to original!
After you relocked your phone you can unlock your phone with a legit AppHub account or with the new Chevron Tool, which was released today. So when you use the relock-tool, be sure you have means to do a legit unlock or else you won't be able to unlock your phone!
After you successfully unlocked your phone again, you can apply Interop Unlock again.
DISCLAIMER
Use this tool at your own risk! You may want to make a backup of your phone first, before you start playing with locking/unlocking! I will not take any responsibility for lock-outs or any other damage caused directly or indirectly by using this tool!
Ciao,

As usual thanks for the .xap !
Am I right that the prevent from relocking hack is one reason why a lot of people have problems with the new Chevron unlocker ?
I think samsung users can deploy your xap without any risk because they can unlock their devices anytime with the diagnosis app... Good to have this xap just for the case.
Anyway I don´t see any reason why I should waste the 9 bucks for the new unlocker... It makes only sense for 2nd gen devices and only if you are able to interop-unlock the device....

That's only if you have put the xml in the provxml folder before! This could be done manually or using the interop-unlock-exploit. If you didn't do that, you do need to have other means (like the new Chevron unlocker).

One reason could be that you have to hard-reset for some reason and you don't want to revert to RTM. Also if you just want to experiment with locking/unlocking. I was in the beta-program for the Chevron tool, so I created this tool for myself to do the tests for Chevron team.

For sure the .xml files have to be in provxml folder before.
I think updating an OMNIA 7 from 7004 to 7720 doesn´t take so much time either.
Yesterday I did it again because I wanted to get the latest T-Mobile Germany firmware: 2424.11.9.4.
The only annoying thing is that atm I need 2 laptops because my main laptop I have updated to SDK 7.1 and the "old" chevron unlocker doesn´t work anymore...

Well, there's another reason for the new Chevron unlocker. Take a close look the Chevron certificate: expiration date = 2011/11/25. That's in a few weeks from now. We could of course create a new cert and insert that in the old chevron tool. That would probably work too.

That´s a valid argument for the new unlocker.
What about setting a wrong date before unlocking (maybe on device and desktop) ?

Indeed it will expire soon... hmm

Hi Raphael!
LOL I get your point. But I don't think Interop Unlock is possible without modifying the produrl's. If they are not cleared, the Interop Unlock will be undone everytime you sync with Zune.
But I think this is someyhing people should be aware of. So I will add a comment on that in the opening post of the Interop Unlock thread.
Actually, there is not much damage if you used the Interop Unlock. If you relocked your phone after Interop Unlock, you can unlock it again by doing step 8 - 11 again. That's it.
Edit: worst-case-scenario: a hard reset will fix it too.

That would've meant lost Plants vs. Zombies saves which would have caused me to fly there and kick your butt.
I think a workaround would be to use a background agent like screenshot tool to re-apply the unlock count (maybe even have a button to lock the phone in your app.)

About the background agent: I doubt that will work. Normally you would need Interop Access to change the settings for Interop Unlock. So, as soon as Interop Unlock is remove during Zune sync, the background agent won't work anymore. I will do a couple of tests to see if there are alternatives.

Reg carrier unlocked phones
Hai,
I am having a carrier unlocked samsung focus. I had done interop developer unlock. If I relock my phone using your method , will it affect my carrier unlock ?
Moreover, Is simply hard resetting the phone will lock the interop unlock?
Carrier unlock has nothing at all to do with any kind of dev- or interop-unlock. It's kind of like asking "If I lock my keys in the car, will I be unable to access my bank account?" - the only connections are that both of them are on the phone, and both have some effect on your ability to do a thing.
Dev- and Interop-unlocks are registry changes (part of the core WinCE OS that underlies WP7). Those will be wiped on a hard reset. SIM-unlock is handled in a completely different part of the phone altogether. If it weren't, you could change the SIM lock by flashing the ROM from another carrier.
i just cant deploy anything i getting class not registred error , itried to re jailbreak my phone many times i tried many deploys tools nothing worked...
what can i do?
i got the focus s , with window break thank you
Do you've enabled Zune when you deployed apps to your Phone?
Do you have chevron unlock? Do you have interop-unlock?
i have a window break hack , zune is always runing but nothing happend
Do you tried to do something in bootloader mode?
Or maybe you've to restart your WP by Settings>>Info>>Restore (or something like that, because i haven't default english lang)

No you don't, WindowBreak works fine on locked devices. It unlocks the phone, like chevron but in a "different" way so it's interop unlock.
This is the wrong section for this, but to sideload apps you have to either be Chevron (or equivalent) unlocked and certain apps require you to be inter-op unlocked.
Things you can try:
Install the registry editor for your phone and check to make sure you are inter-op unlocked. If you can't sideload this app try sideloading just a simple homebrew app.
If your xap sender gives you an error it would be helpful what error you get.
