[Q] WP7 FFU Image - Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking

Dear All,
Does anyone have access to Microsoft connect? I happen to posses a development device which is currently known as omnia7 but I could not update the device as I do not have access to Microsoft connect... Could anyone kindly provide the latest image (*.ffu) if possible specifically for "Taylor" from Microsoft connect? would really appreciate it.
Also the device comes with "pre-sales unit radio disabled" but when I insert sim, it detects it and recognizes the number. Checking the about section shows that the phone is enabled and unlocked. Unfortunately, typing *#06# it returns 000000000 as the imei number. Can anyone provide a clue whether I can enable this?
Thanks!

Cannot install Goodlink

HERM 300/TyTn II by T-Mobile
I am trying to installed goodlink on a cooked ROM (on WM6)but after I download and execute the OTA setup (over the air setup), i get the error:
"Unable to retrieve handheld serial number. ROM Version MaNiLlA2d
Contact IT administrator. Press OK to exist OTA Setup".
I have tried it with other ROMs too but still the same.
I wonder if there is a way to emulate the proper serial number.
Any ideas anyone ?
Thanks
p.s. I had goodlink working fine on WM5 before I replaced the ROM
can you confirm what model phone you have? A Hermes does not equate to a Tytn II as your original post says.
Its a HERM300 as it says in the back. Its a T-mobile MDA Vario
pm me a sample account, so I can test, I installed it but I don't have any use for goodlink.
sorry if my question sounds ***** but what is GoodLink?
some sort of exchange service. I am able to get exchange 2007 working fine on mine sooooooo not sure.

You dont need a sample account to test.
You just go to : https://get.good.com and download the appropriate cab file that matches the hardware / OS.
Then once you install that, the OTA SETUP application appears in your programs. If you try to run this, it will go to the goodlink website and try to download the actual goodlink application. Before it hits the internet it checks the serial number. Thats where the problem appears and the message pops up.
Thanks for the help !

I think you have past the point where i got stopped. Have you done anything specific ? i couldnt get to the point where it asked for the pin, as it was checking for the serial number just before that.
Is there anything that i need to do in order to get there?
Thanks
Have you checked the IMEI that the OS is reading from the phone??? If not go to Device Identity in Settings/System and see if the IMEI is corrupted to start with...

[Q] Kindle Fire serial number

Does anyone know or have any idea where the Kindle Serial Number is located in the device? (not through the menu but stored within the device), the reason I ask is because I am testing eldarerathis' FFF extended bootloader and I was tinkering with flashing Stock ROM (rooted) to the alternate partitions, funny thing is that for some reason the OS is unable to retrieve the Serial Number and so you can't register the device with Amazon. I've looking through every file within the ROM and I have not been able to identify anything that could possibly give me a hint of where the Serial Number is located.
Any thoughts, ideas, suggestions are greatly appreciated.

If it was sitting in some file, it would be much too easy to spoof and lead to sharing Prime accounts, etc. It would have to be embedded in the hardware somewhere. That's my way of telling you that I have no idea why that setup would have a hard time retrieving the serial number.

Why are things like this in the Dev section? This needs to be moved to Q&A
The only reason is I feel there is a better chance of getting a response for this type of question from active devs than most regular users. If not agreed by a moderator I'll gladly move this to the Q&A.
I recently bought a Kindle Fire from Ebay and I'm unable to register it on Amazon.
The amazon reps told me that the serial number is blacklisted and recomanded me to return the device to sender and ask for refund.
Well, I'm unable to do that and I don't want to install a custom rom on it.
The serial should be located within the software, and there should be a way to change it (like adding IMEI - see the guide in the dev section).
will it work with fastboot ? does this change the serial number or jst the number that 'adb devices' will display ?
fastboot -s <serial number> specify device serial number
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
you say you dont want to install a custom rom but its really the best and easyiest way around it... I recommend this one http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1439916

It wouldn't do you any good to change the serial number. There's a corresponding security key number paired with it, so changing one won't help without the other. Since Modaco is just an enhanced version of the stock software, it wouldn't be any different either in terms of obtaining Amazon services on the device (sorry pooch).
Contact ebay/paypal and file a dispute.

Help plz, weird baseband/EFS/IMEI problem...

Hi guyz, Snakeforhire here. For some reason I can't access my old account anymore so had to create another one :/
My 3rd phone (not in production) is a N7100 which behaves weird since I flashed a stock 4.4.2 ROM on it : when I boot it up, it loads OK, recognizes the SIM card and asks for the PIN to unlock it, but once fully booted it doesn't pick up a carrier and displays the barred circle instead Wifi and bluetooth work OK though.
From what I can see it has a valid IMEI (an analyser tool from PlayStore recognizes it as a valid GN2 IMEI), and the EFS doesn't seem corrupted.
"About device" displays the following info :
Android version : 4.4.2
baseband version : N7100XXUFND3
Kernel version : 3.0.31-1280411
(....)
Build #KOT49H.N7100XXUFND3
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thx !
Has the phone been blacklisted from your carrier? Is it possible there is a loose connection inside?
