I'M A CHINESE.I hope my experience can help all WP7 fans. If this thread help you,It's my pleasure.
detail steps:
1. MAKE sure your phone has a 7004 or 7008 rom,than used chevronWP7.cer and chevronWP7.EXE to unlock your WP7. (this is step you can find in this forum)
2. After UNLOCK! prevent relocked. (belows is the easy way to edit your registry)
for HTC download xap in http://dl.dbank.com/c0u5q3xic8 and sideload it to your phone and run it ,press the green button.
for Samsung devices,see post #17 in this thread.
3. Update to NoDo via zune and your device still in unlocked state! (for some people cannot get nodo from zune, see below method,100% successful rate.)
methods to get zune nodo. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1012189 !!!!
Download USAIP.pbk open it and connect to EUROIP PPTP Hungary with
USERNAME: demo
PASSWORD: demo
Connect your phone to the PC
Disable WIFI in your phone but be sure not to open FLIGHT MODE
OPEN "Use cellular data connection to check for updates" in SETTINGS-UPDATE, AND KEEP YOUR PHONE IN THIS SCREEN
Start Zune and keep it running all the time
Manually search for an update within Zune (setting-phone-update)
After a few seconds (about 20-25 seconds for me) disable "Use cellular data connection to check for updates on your phone" --> WAIT FOR 20-30S,The update shows up! and enjoy it!
I MANAGED TO GET UPDATE BY USING THIS METHOD!!!
HAVE fune!
the update should go via zune. it should be official update。
If it works that's good news.. But is it that easy? I would thing that the update edits the registry...
If you update to 7008 the unlock still works that I know.. Are you sure that's not what happaned.. And you just got the Pre-NoDo update...?

the vision is 7390.after 7008,unlock,then prevent unlock, then connect to zune, if you can find update, then you success。many chinese succeed,the only problem is MS,it promise everyone can update,but only very few people receive the notice of update through zune。

But I am still waiting the Nodo Version in Hong Kong, if it is true, it is a great job for the user!!!
I am a user of HD2 with wp7 two days ago.but now I have to switch to Android again as the wp7 is not fully developed,I think.anyway...thanks for sharing the good news...謝謝!
It seems to work based on user replies. However, it requires HTC-ProvXml-Deploy to work. What about us non-htc users?
as it was already said, we need to know if it works on non HTC devices?
Can anyone post the xap here?
Registered and downloaded the xap. It's attached as a zip, just change the file extension from .zip to .xap.
Wondering if this will truly be our way to update to NoDo and still keep our devices unlocked...

The whole prevent-relock thing essentially does this:
Code:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\DeviceReg]
"PortalUrlProd"=""
"PortalUrlInt"=""
On Samsung devices you can use the TouchXplorer Registry Editor to do this. Though it has limited access on Samsung devices. It will show an "Access Denied" when you open the DeviceReg registry-key. But it will still allow you to create new values there and overwrite the old values. So, open the DeviceReg-key and create the "portalUrlProd" and "PortalUrlInt" values as empty strings. That will prevent your Samsung from relocking. And as it seems, that tweak will even survive the NoDo-update.
is that only for htc device?

So someone has tried to change these keys and update to nodo to see!!!!
Disclaimer, use this at your own risk, if this voids your warranty I’m not being held responsible, blah blah all that junk.
Well, first, thanks go out for Microsoft for releasing a support tool for Windows Phone yesterday. Inside that tool, were unreal hidden gems.
Basically they’ve created a managed wrapper over the whole update process for us, rather nice of them.
So I flashed my HTC Mozart back to RTM (7004) via a ROM update HTC ship and whipped up a little application to flash pre-NoDo (7008), NoDo (7355), NoDo update 1 (7389) & NoDo update 2 (7390) all in a single process. No I don’t care which carrier you are on, which phone you have, it’ll just update your phone accordingly.
We really have to commend Microsoft here for being able to split up the OS updates into differential packs, which saves users downloading 200+ MB updates, unlike the IFruit updates.
All you need to do is run the ChevronWP7.Updater.exe console app and follow the prompts.
Make sure you select the RIGHT language for your device. To double check what your default language is, go to Settings > Keyboard and if your selected language is displayed in the Console app, you’re good to select it. If it isn’t in the list, DON’T flash it just yet.
Now, download the following files.
x86 Operating System (32 bit)
Windows Phone Support Tools
http://download.microsoft.com/download/1/5/4/15427EAF-AD42-4E4A-8179-9A3C5483E366/WPSupportTool-x86.msi

ChevronWP7.Updater
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=40MA6F02
Once you’ve installed the support tools and extracted the ChevronWP7.Updater.zip to the desktop, plug your phone in and wait 30 seconds.
Now start ChevronWP7.Updater.exe (this should kill Zune) and follow the prompts.
If you’re updating from Version 7004, you need to run the Updater TWICE, this needs the preUpdate before we can flash NoDo.
Again, if your language isn’t in the Chevron updater, DON’T attempt to update your phone. Some of the applications won’t work otherwise.
This “might” work for HD2 owners, haven’t tried it out just yet. If it does, report below and tell me .
There is NO revert process, again, flash at your own risk.
I flashed my Samsung Omnia 7 works fine
Big Tenks to walshie
If I do so like you suggest with my HD2 (WP 7.0.7004.0), he still asks to update the february update..
And I did it twice like suggested...
Thanks anyway!
It doesn't work for me but I still have to install the February update. Does anyone know if there is already a new rom with this update included?
Thx!
Works for me, Samsung Focus AT+T and had to run it twice to get both updates.
Source
Where does this method pull the updates from? Is it the same update being tested by AT&T for the Focus?
Didn't work for me...tried 4 times and kept getting some error, then got booted from the program...not sure what the deal is. Samsung Focus, AT&T
Sent from my SGH-i917 using Board Express
Also not working for me- Samsung Focus on AT&T. Program runs, reboots phone, seems to update, but on examination I'm still at 7004.
Sadly I should've resisted. I did this on my AT&T Samsung Focus, everything is great except I have no marketplace and no Zune functionality..

Hi, HTC Surround
I am updating and it goes to downloading update but fails to go any further. just closes chevron
Any Ideas
Updated fine, but after the update anything related with messaging (SMS's, E-mail some contacts) doesn't work. Orange HTC Mozart running branded 7008...
Chevronwp7update was removed from the site. Where else can it be downloaded from?
Same here HTC Mozart telstra
Sent from my T8697 using XDA Windows Phone 7 App
Updater seems to be offline?
Anyone has got updated Links or a mirror?
Thanks in advance
Ok, I installed the Debrander xap util and it debranded to 00-88. I then ran Zune and it showed update available. It upgrade phone to 7008 from 7004. But even after that running chevron update still fails.
Maybe it was pulled from the site due to unforeseen problems.
Btw, don't reinstall debrander over your original debrander as it loses the original carrier details no I cannot rebrand to at&t unless I do a reg hack *I think*
@ Mods: I read the tutorials here on how to unlock Windows Phone 7 but most of the time I felt like there's missing some information. I know that there are already a lot of tutorials and guides but I thought it would be good to collect it a bit. If this thread is inappropriate feel free to remove it
-
Unlock your phone
[Developer unlock; ChevronWP7; Application Deployment]
1. Check the OS version of your phone
First step is to check which OS version your phone is running as ChevronWP7 doesn't work with NoDo (or higher) update installed on your phone. Just take a look at the following page on your phone: settings > about > more information.
7.0.7004 = compatible with ChevronWP7 | No updates installed; OS version when Windows Phone 7 was launched
7.0.7008 = compatible with ChevronWP7 | Pre-NoDo update installed
7.0.7390 = not compatible with ChevronWP7 | NoDo update installed
7.0.7392 = not compatible with ChevronWP7 | NoDo update installed; certificate update for security improvement installed
7.0.7401 = not compatible with ChevronWP7 | Pre-Mango update (BETA! NOT OFFICIALLY AVAILABLE YET!) installed
7.0.7661 = not compatible with ChevronWP7 | Mango update (BETA v1! NOT OFFICIALLY AVAILABLE YET!) installed
7.10.7712 = not compatible with ChevronWP7 | Mango update (BETA v2! NOT OFFICIALLY AVAILABLE YET!) installed
7.10.7720 = not compatible with ChevronWP7 | Mango update (FINAL - FOR DEVELOPERS ONLY! NOT OFFICIALLY AVAILABLE YET!) installed
If your phone is running an imcompatible version you've to flash a ROM which hasn't got NoDo installed. Take a look at xda-developers | Forums and scroll down to your device. Enter the development section and search for a flash guide and a machting ROM file. I can't explain the process more exactly as it depends on your phone model.
2. Install Zune software
If you don't already have the Zune software on your computer, follow this link and install it: zune.net
3. Add registry entry
Now you have to add a entry to your Windows registry. ChevronWP7 will need this entry to connect to your phone. There are several methods - use only one!
Method 1:
Install Windows Phone Developer Tools RTW. The entry will automatically be added.
The setup is enourmously big but later you'll need it anyway! So I really advise you to choose this method!
Method 2:
Download this .reg-file to your hard drive and execute it. Click "Yes" in the first popup and "OK" in the second one - the entry is now added.
Method 3:
Add the entry manual: Open up the registry editor (Command: regedit.exe | Default path: "C:\Windows\regedit.exe"). Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\WindowsPhone\ProxyPorts. If the folder/key doesn't exist yet, create it. Search for the entry DeviceReg. Create it if it doesn't exist: It's a 32-bit DWORD called "DeviceReg" with this data in it:
Hexadecimal: 69c5
Decimal: 27077
4. Check "hosts" file for "developerservices.windowsphone.com" entries
Now it's best to also edit the "hosts" file. Here's what you've to do:
Open up "Notepad" (Start - All Programs - Accessories - Notepad) - It's best to right click it and press "Run as administrator" in the menu. Else it could happen that you don't have the permission to edit the file. Then click on File > Open. Now copy this line:
%windir%\system32\drivers\etc\hosts
and paste it in the line file name. Then just hit the enter key.
Now search for lines which contain developerservices.windowsphone.com. If you find such lines just remove them entirely. Finally press File > Save.
5. Install certificate on phone
Next step is to install the certificate from ChevronWP7 on your phone. The easiest way is to open up the browser on your device and type this URL into the adress bar:
db.tt/fFwKQIy
Consider the use of capitals and small initials letter!
(You don't have to install this on your computer)
After you opened the page you can see a big shield. Under the symbol there's a message saying "Press to open the file ChevronWP7.cer". Follow this instruction and confirm with install and ok.
6. Download and run ChevronWP7
To get the unlock tool follow this link and save the ChevronWP7.exe file somewhere on your hard disk. Now do the following steps:
- Connect your phone to the computer
- Wait for Zune to start up (If it doesn't start up, open it manually)
- In Zune click on the tab phone
- There you have to pay attention to two things:
- If Zune is syncing files to or from your phone just wait until it's finished
- Now check the relationship between Zune and your phone. If you can read something about a guest relationship you've to click on "Change Sync Relationship" and follow the instructions to get a full relationship.
- Keep sure that the device stays on the homescreen (where the live tiles are) for the next steps - the lockscreen mustn't be active! [Just touch the display and scroll up and down every few seconds to avoid this.]
- Run the downloaded ChevronWP7.exe and check the two boxes:
Ensure your phone isn't PIN-locked
Install certificate on phone using Internet Explorer at "http://www.chevronwp7.com/cert"
- Now finally click on the Unlock button - The button turns into Relock which means that your device is unlocked now. If this didn't work for you - with an error message coming up on your screen - try this:
Instead of using the latest version of Zune, try an older version. Here's a link where you can download version 4.7.01: Zune v4.701
Don't click the Relock button now! Just close ChevronWP7.
Leave Zune running in the background as we'll need it again in a few minutes.
Don't disconnect your device now! Continue with step 7 or your device will relock itself the next time you connect it and Zune identifies it.
7. Keep your phone unlocked
7.1 Install registry editor
As you can read above your device will be locked if you connect it again (Zune will identify your phone and lock it again). To prevent this we've to edit an entry of the phone registry:
First of all we need a registry editor for Windows Phone 7. Well, there's not a uniform way to edit registry on all devices (HTC, Samsung, ...), yet. So you have to search a registry editor which enables full registry access on your device. [I'll update this with some suggestions soon!] Then you've to open Start > All Programs > Windows Phone Developer Tools > Application Deployment on your computer. Select the downloaded .xap file (Registry Editor) and click on Deploy. Wait until the process is finished. Now disconnect your phone from the computer.
7.2 Modify the registry
Now open the Registry Editor on your phone. Now navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE > Software > Microsoft > DeviceReg.
Now scroll to PortalUrlInt, remove its value data and save it. Do the same with PortalUrlProd. Both entries should now be "empty" (but not deleted!).
8. Installing updates
8.1 Pre-NoDo & NoDo update:
After you've followed the steps of my tutorial, you can install both the Pre-NoDo and the NoDo update without loosing the unlock.
8.2 Mango update:
There's already a BETA version of Mango out there which is intended for developers - but with some additional steps you can also install it without being a developer (and even without having a developer unlocked phone)! This update WILL REMOVE YOUR UNLOCK AND DISABLE THE USE OF HOMEBREW APPS! -> You won't be able to sideload apps anymore and you won't be able to use tools like registry editors and file explorers! Basically, if you want Mango update + jailbreak you've to prepare your phone while running NoDo (or earlier). To explain the process shortly: There are official apps which read out files information and apply changes to the phones registry. Just imagine a connection managing application which has got one file for every single provider containing informations like APN, Passwords, ... . Okay, so while you're on NoDo you can add your own files to this application - but these ones won't contain information about a provider. Instead they'll tell your phone to change several registry entries. And example would be the "Connection setup" app for HTC devices. People can add a .provxml file to the app. Then they update to Mango with loosing the developer unlock but not the file. On Mango they open up the "Connection setup" (<- You have to use this official tool - sideloaded apps won't work at that time as you're not developer unlocked yet) and can see the entry of the .provxml: There will be several networks to choose from (e.g. "T-Mobile", "Vodafone", ...) and also a entry called something like "Developer unlock". Well, this is because of the .provxml file. Then you just have to choose and run this file and the changes will apply - your phone is unlocked again! Just search and you'll find much tutorials here on how to use provxml method on HTC, Samsung, ... devices. I unlocked my Omnia 7 running Mango BETA v2 using this method.

Wow, you're done! Now you can connect your device to your computer without loosing the unlock.
I'll try to always improve this tutorial and keep it up to date
Please click on "Thanks" if it helped you!
Please tell me if you find something disordered or mistakes. And please be kind as this is my first tutorial Thanks
Excellent. I think this combines everything that was missing from other tutorials, and it is very thorough.
I'm inspired to flash my Focus and unlock it (my old one bricked).
You should add some recommended apps for post-unlock. AccentChanger, Battery Meter, Ringtone installers, Screen Capture, etc.
Thanks And my english doesn't sound too crappy?
Much luck with your Focus

Ok. So installed Nodo on my phone a whiile ago. Carrier stock att. Is there a way for me to downgrade and install the chevron? CUz I dont think i can downgrade.
We need to know what phone model you have (HTC HD7 for example)
i have the HTC 7 Pro with 7.0.7392 OS. i hate now to not unlock my foon!!!!!
Aren't there old ROM files for HTC 7 Pro out there?
what?/ can i install a old rom on my foon??
Did you even read my tutorial? It says that you should look into the development section of your phone here on xda-developers. There are ROMs so I think there's also a way to flash them
I bought on ebay a Omnia 7, how do i know if the person who sold me made de unlock with the ChevronWP7...is there any way to see on the phone if the ChevronWP7 is apllied.
Thanks for your great tutorial.
First of all you've to look if there's homebrew installed on the phone. Something like 'Registry editor' for example. If not I guess the easiest way is to try to deploy an app to the phone. If it works it's unlocked, if not it is locked. And if Zune tells you to update: Don't do it until you followed my tutorial

If it works it's unlocked, if not it is locked. And if Zune tells you to update: Don't do it until you followed my tutorial

I checked in my phone and i already have the 7.0.7392.0 version installed.
So now i have to downgrade to the 7.0.7004 version, install the ChevronWP7, and then i can update with zune to the last version that i still be unlocked, is that correct?
Thanks
Correct
the link to chevronwp7.exe does not work. can you have a look at it.
Can someone please simplify all this for me?
The information on this site is so convoluded in terms of methods, some expired , some still valid, and guesses that are plain wrong, and irrelevancies.
I have been reading, installing, and uninstalling for hours into days.
Samsung Focus
1. Can Mango unlock be achieved with unlock from 7004?
2.I was on NoDo unlock and followed some instructions for the Focus that did not work. It went right to Mango LOCKED (as many others have reported).
I made a nice little back up of my NoDo unlock but can't get back to it using any version of Zune or any method, they all result in restore errors.
My back up might as well be on the north pole because I can't get to it.
3.I flashed back to 7004 and couldn't get chevron to unlock again like I used to be able to on XP or WIN 7 with various zune versions back to 4.7.
I'm wondering if the newer Zunes corrupted that somehow because last time it worked was on a fresh zune install on windows 7.
And besides that, they all ask to be upgraded before they do a back up, usually.
4.But even if it is unlocked at ROM 7004, zune updates (if chosen) will send it back to mango and locks it agian right? That's what happened last time , it just kept updating the phone for hours and then it was back to mango.
5.It appears my only option now is Mango locked or 7004 flash Rom with possible unlock.
Hopefully answers here will help others as well.
A few answers, though not compreheensive:
1) You don't have to let WP7 install each update, if you wanted to stop at, for example, NoDo 7392, you could. Just wait untilt he update gets that far, then pull the plug and/or hit Ccancel in Zune. Left to itsself, it will install all available updates.
2) The phone automatically dev-relocks whenever a major update is installed - this happens even to people with legitimate develop-unlock (and it's annoying!) For Samsung, I believe the technique for preserving unlock is the same one used to get interop-unlock on Mango: place an unlock provxml file in \provxml\ on the phone's filesystem (you can either use Heathcliff74's WP7 Root Tools to do this, or you can just install his interop-unlock XAP) and make sure you have a working version of the Samsung Diag app (should allow you to process provxml files). Once you have that, you can install all the way up to the Mango update safely, I think (I don't have a Samsung, but it should work) and use the Diag app to process your provxml file, which will both dev-unlock and interop-unlock the phone.
Not sure what's up with your backups; I can't really help you there without more information. What error do you get? What version of Zune are you using (you probably should use the latest version, 4.8.whatever)? How big is the backup (it's in %localappdata%\Microsoft\Windows Phone Update\)?
As for what guides to follow, starting with the stickies is always a good idea.
Hello,
I have a HTC Mozart device wich is momentarily running on unlocked NoDo.
I have followed various guides from xda but I end up running a locked Mango (most of the guides require after Mango update to run HTC Connection Setup to unlock... which I am unable to run (black scren) and all other apps tell me revoked by Microsoft).
is there any latest guide a little more foolproof?
It seems that after 18th October something happened with Zune which prevents Mango unlock...

After you install the interop-unlock xap while on nodo then goto mango you reinstall the diag app and in the Diagnosis app dial: *#9908#.. Select "Heathcliff74 Interop Unlock"
then tap Save, tap Close and exit the Diagnosis app
@lucasryan: Those are the instructions for a Samsung phone. They don't work at all on an HTC phone.
@Gyuritzy: Currently, Microsoft is pushing the Mango update and an HTC update together. The HTC update blocks the unlock path used with Mango. If your phone gets that update - which means if it gets Mango through the retail update path - there's no current way to interop-unlock it.
If you can get Mango through an atypical upgrade path (I came from the beta, which worked), or if you use a custom ROM (be *very careful* of the bootloader version if you try this!!), you can get interoop-unlocked Mango on HTC. It's not easy, though.
Ahh i see that i quoted his post now. as alan93 has focus
What solution do I have to load Mango without HTC update? Should I try with RCT2RTM type of packagge?
@GoodDayToDie
#1 - ahh ok, but I'm sure watching the update tentativley is required right? For like an hour and a half.
#2 - now see, there you go again, this is only for dev-unlock people which , i'm not even sure what that is..what? you pay $100 to MS to get it? It needs to be stated more clearly where ever that solution is posted AT THE VERY TOP like this "IF YOU ALREADY HAVE A DEV UNLOCK ....
@ lucasryan - That can't be right, -->"installing interop unlock on NoDo then go to Mango"...STOP RIGHT THERE. when you go to Mango it wipes everything out and you have no more access...unless of course ..YOU ALREADY HAVE A DEV UNLOCK...what ever that is.
I did try the diagnosis trick on update to mango after putting that file on there but the diagnosis version would not go higher than 908 or what ever. Couldn't get 1112 or what ever the one that is needed.
Please, just say there is no way to unlock Mango unless you have a dev unlock and that is low percentage as it is...then I won't expect so much.
Thanks for the replies.
Here is the zune error I get on trying to restore to my NoDo unlock.
http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/...-restore/3ec7091d-d79d-422c-9995-cfe186e0155b
As you can see nobody is dying to answer it.
I think the code number means "this goon is trying to restore to an unlocked version, don't answer him".
@alan93: Developer Unlock is the term used for the change to your phone made by the Windows Phone Registration Tool (if you have a marketplace developer account), ChevronWP7 Unlocker (possible on pre-NoDo), ChevronWP7 Labs (coming soon), or changing the DeveloperUnlockState registry value located at HKLM\Comm\Security\LVMod to 1 (possible with the LG registry editor, or by using the Samsung diag app or HTC Connection Setup app to process to provxml file). The registry change is actually what matters; the other methods are simply ways to achieve it.
Dev unlock allows you to install XAP files - a renamed ZIP file with some manifest XML files, one or more managed (.NET-based) DLL files, and possibly other files needed by the application. Due to a bug in the application installer, you can also use a XAP to put arbitrary files almost anywhere in the filesystem (the installer can't write to the \Windows\ directory).
One of those manifst files specifies capabilities that the app has, which controls permissions of the app (for example, ID_CAP_ISV_CAMERA allows access to the public camera APIs). As of Mango, including beta versions, it is no longer possible to install apps with the ID_CAP_INTEROPSERVICES capability unless the MaxUnsignedApp registry value (located in HKLM\Software\Microsoft\DeviceReg\Install) is set to at least 300 (the default value is either 10 or 3, depending on the unlock method used). ID_CAP_INTEROPSERVICES is required for interfacing with drivers, a way for applications to run at high permissions (for example, to write to the registry). Each time you install a major upgrade, such as Mango, this value is reset to its default. An app with ID_CAP_INTEROPSERVICES therefore can't be installed (or run, if it was installed before upgrading to Mango) until this MaxUnsignedApp registry value is changed, a process referred to as Interop-unlock (term coined by Heathcliff74 on this forum). Marketplace-installed apps are exempt from this restriction, which is why things like Connection Setup (which has ID_CAP_INTEROPSERVICES) can be used.
For what it's worth, I got my dev-unlock by purchasing a marketplace developer account ($100 from MS). One day I may even submit an app to the marketplace, but so far all the apps I've written use homebrew and wouldn't be acceptable for the marketplace, so I just publish them here.
Thanks great explanation.
I intend to write my own too, I wrote one and have a few more great ideas but didn't want to pay until i made sure I was able to write them completely and testing on the simulator sux. And last I heard, the media player doesn't work with it.
I just think the fee and lockout just hurts development thereby limiting the success of WP7.
If it was $50 or less I would probably pay it.
I mean for crying out loud I'm a certified MCP/MCAD, they should give me a break here.
While the Nokia Lumia 530 isn’t officially supported, it’s still possible to get Windows 10 mobile running on it. At the time of writing, it has become a bit tricky to get it to work, since most official Microsoft tools are discontinued and will therefore not work. I will be linking the files which I’ve used. The credits to the people who made or shared the tools and guides I used will be at the bottom of this guide.
Note that I am not responsible for any damage made. Proceed at your own risk!
Prerequisites:
- A Nokia Lumia 530 running the Windows 8.1 Denim Update (will be referred to as "device")
- A stable Windows 7 system or VM, with .NET Framework 4.5.x or 4.6.x (on Windows 10, the IUTool will fail to synchronize, hence this requirement)
- An internet connection that can handle a download of approximately 2GB data on the computer and about the same on the phone
- A good USB cable (a flimsy one with a loose fit could brick the device while it’s updating)
- The programs linked below
First part of the installation:
1. Make sure the device is fully charged. If it’s not fully charged the device could get (soft-)bricked.
2. Factory reset the device, so you have as much storage as possible available on the device. After the reset is done, leave it at the language selection screen, because it doesn’t do anything there.
3. Extract HCTSW_WXMSOUP_V5.3beta6.update.lzma2.7z with 7zip or whatever you prefer.
4. Download the Visual C++ libraries from here: https://www.techpowerup.com/download/visual-c-redistributable-runtime-package-all-in-one/ and run the install script.
5. The next thing you are going to do is download the updates, push them to the device and install them. This will take some time, but it depends on your internet connection for the most part. The files will be downloaded from the official Microsoft servers. Now here’s what to do: open run_en.cmd and follow the steps. These are pretty clear, so I don’t think I need to point all of them out here. It will open a webpage where you can download WDRT, you will need to install that for the tool to work.
6. Now you can move on to the second part.
Second part of the installation:
In this part of the installation, you will be updating the device from version 1511 to the latest available build, which should have a working Microsoft store.
1. The setup of the device. The version that just got installed doesn’t have a lot of options yet, including language packs. If you have a device that’s not English United States, the keyboard will bug out on setup, because it’s trying to access a language pack that doesn’t exist. Therefore, the first step, setting the language should be English (United States), so the OS itself won’t bug out. Once you’ve set the language (it will prompt to reboot, do that), you can go through the rest of the setup. Don’t log it into your Wi-Fi, don’t log it into your Microsoft account and don’t turn on automatic app updates. It’ll say it needs to set up apps, that takes some time but eventually you’ll get to the home screen. Now is when you need a few tools, which brings us to step 2.
Now is a good moment for me to point out that, if you have a non-English-US device, the keyboard for another language is still "installed". It can be removed by holding it in settings -> time and language -> keyboard and choosing “Delete”.
2. Installing Interop Tools. In order to get updates, you’ll need to modify your device a bit. This won’t be very hard, but it involves some registry modifications so you’ll have to pay close attention.
Go to settings -> update and security -> for developers and enable developer mode, so you can sideload the Interop Tools (Linked below). Copy the contents of the Interop Tools zip to the device first. Then, go to the file manager on the phone and go to the directory where you put the files. INSTALL THE DEPENDENCIES IN THE \ARM FOLDER FIRST, THEN THE INTEROP TOOLS FILE ITSELF! Check if the Interop Tools installed on the “all apps screen” and get ready to open it.
3. Modifying the registry. Open Interop Tools and tap the “This Device” button. This will bring up a menu.
3.1. Tap the menu button on the top left corner, then select “Modify Registry”. In the “Registry Key Path”, put SYSTEM\Platform\DeviceTargetingInfo. Then, put PhoneManufacturerModelName in the “Registry Value Name” box and tap the “Read” button at the bottom. You’ll see some text appear in a box. This will need to be edited to the following value: RM-1089_1048. After you did that, tap the “Write” button.
3.2. Now put PhoneModelName in the the “Registry Value Name” box and tap “Read” again. Now change the value to Lumia 535 and tap “Write”.
3.3. Exit out of Interop Tools and go to the next step.
4. Logging in to the Wi-Fi and checking for updates.
4.1. Logging it in to the Wi-Fi. Go to settings -> network & wireless -> Wi-Fi and choose your network. Easy peasy probably.
4.2. Checking for updates. This is the part that always went wrong with me, because of storage limits (gotta love that 4GB eMMC). But if I’ve explained this well enough, you might not have to do a lot of weird stuff. Oh well, to the instruction we go. Go to settings -> update and security -> windows update and check for updates. This will take a while! Keep it on wall power because updating can only be done at 40% or more at this point. I got two updates: from 1511 to early 1607 and from that to late 1607. Maybe you can get a newer version with WDRT or OTC but I doubt that to be honest.
Hooray! Now you should have a fully functional Nokia Lumia 530 with Windows 10 mobile!

[ADDITION] Updating from build 1607 to 1709.
I said it wouldn’t be possible and it would break stuff, but I tried it and it doesn’t break anything some people say it might break. Yeah, it might impact on battery life a bit, but nothing has broken for me (yet), it has only improved.
I’ve learned that the update from 1607 to 1703 is the hardest one yet, but you should be able to get it going. This is because the preinstalled Store in 1607 can connect to the app update servers, but it can’t view the app. This is a difficult situation because many apps will become very large when they get updated. You need to figure out for yourself what gets you the space you need, but I found that uninstalling all the apps that can be uninstalled and deleting system apps through MTP (which can be done by bootloader unlocking, rooting and booting into mass storage mode with Windows Phone Internals (I recommend that you only delete OneNote, SkyDrive (as it’s being referred to in /data/program files/windowsapps) and the Xbox app).
Step 0: you might want to factory reset first
Let’s get to the updating though…
1. Modifying the registry. Open Interop Tools and tap the “This Device” button. This will bring up a menu.
1.1. Tap the menu button on the top left corner, then select “Modify Registry”. In the “Registry Key Path”, put SYSTEM\Platform\DeviceTargetingInfo. Now do the exact same as you did before, except use these “registry value names” and put the corresponding information into the box below that. Don’t forget to tap write!
Values you should use:
PhoneHardwareVariantRM-1104PhoneManufacturerMicrosoftMDGPhoneManufacturerModelNameRM-1104_11210PhoneModelNameLumia 950
1.2. Exit out of Interop Tools and go to the next step.
2. Logging in to the Wi-Fi and checking for updates.
2.1. Logging it in to the Wi-Fi. Go to settings -> network & wireless -> Wi-Fi and choose your network. Easy peasy probably.
2.2. Checking for updates. Go to settings -> update and security -> Windows Update and check for updates. This will take a while! Keep it on wall power because updating can only be done at 40% or more at this point. I got 3 updates, one from 1607 to 1703, one from 1703 to 1709 and another one from old 1709 to last 1709.

In the Interop Unlock menu, there's a mount entire storage option. Copied the EFIESP from there and compiled it into a bin. For WPI the Windows on the phone is too new :/
Thats why didnt worked

Yeah that doesn't work. Rename the .bin to .zip, extract, mount the phone in mass storage mode and copy the files to the EFIESP folder/symlink. If you can't do that, WDRT can probably unbreak it
Please anounce me when you can upload the dumped partition.
Is resulting that efiesp.bin , data.bin and mainos.bin are related, so i cant upgrade my phone to windows 10 mobile without them.

Something that might work (according to a friend. Again, I am not responsible for a phone that gets rendered useless)
Mount as mass storage, diskpart clean the thing, hold power button for ~10 seconds, flash a bootloader with WDRT (may fail 2-3 times), flash FFU
_Yep, erase clean DPP partition )) buhahahaha

You can download and flash it in WPInternals (will delete all data so back that up first) or WDRT (not sure if that erases userdata)

WDRT already says I'm at the latest version of Windows for my device, so that sucks. I shall try WPInternals! Thanks!

Hello! I followed your step with editing values and after checking updates, there was an update which is Windows 10 Mobile (10.0.14393.1066) as of now, May 2022.
my question is what is the size of this update? and will I able to install this with my Lumia 530?
any other way to install this offline? i really need this update because I need working Microsoft Store.
Thanks...
