I have an SPL with WM6 (PUMA_T). Unfortunately, none of the original i-mate SPL (WM5) unlock mechanisms work, nor does SDA_applicationunlock. RegeditSTG2 won't work either ... I assume because it is signed by HTC, not by tech faith wireless or i-mate.
The Microsoft SCM shows that it is a two-tier prompt configuration type, with grant manager role to Operator_TPS (128). As such, the Microsoft SDK cert.cab won't run even manually installed, and I'm not sure what else to try.
I was thinking about a registry editor that was signed for M2M, but Resco Explorer was the only one that I saw that was ... and it didn't allow the security policy registry entries to be changed either.
Any other ideas?
App Unlock
I tried nearly everything but same problem for me.
I am having problems with applications under Windows Mobile 5.0. When i try to run them i get the following error.
The file 'foo' cannot be opened. Either it is not signed with a trusted certificate, or one of its components cannot be found. You might need to reinstall or restore this file.
1)Is there anyway of disabling the checks for trusted applications in Windows Mobile 5.0 on the Wizard?
I think this error becuz u r trying to run wm6 applications under wm5

I have same problem for BA wm 6.1 5.2.19199.1.0.0 PV DVH. Some people offered solution of HR. I don't agree with this. because we have to lose what we've been installing and spend more time re-installing them. so much time-wasting?
Any other solutions, please?!
Thanks in advance.
Problem may be cause of your SD card if u r using WM6. SD card PowerManagment value is set("DisablePowerManagment") to 0 in your registry. This means after a while your device will set your SD card power off for savg batttery. This cause to unread your program files etc while u start any program on your form your SD card device.
I fixed this problem like that;
By any registry editor:
Find the Path:
"Hkey_local_machine>drivers>sdcard>clientdrivers> class >SDMemory_Class"
after that find;
""DisablePowerManagement"" key and set its value to "1" than save and exit. Than soft reset your device. Problem will be fixed.
Sorry for my bad english.
Windows Mobile powered devices are shipped with default security settings.
The security model enables Mobile Operators to make post-production changes to security settings.
This can place significant restrictions on software which has not been signed and approved.
However you can change the default settings.
Take control of applications on your phone.
"All listed settings are decimal"
1. Connect the phone through ActiveSync.
2. Run your favorite remote registry editor "CeRegEditor (Download)" "Mobile Registry Editor (Download)" on your PC. http://ceregeditor.mdsoft.pl/
3. Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\Policies\Policies
Unsigned Prompt Policy:
This policy indicates whether the user is prompted to accept or reject unsigned .cab, theme, .dll and .exe files.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\Policies\Policies
DWord = 0000101a Data = Use the following-->
0 = Indicates user will be prompted.
1 = Indicates user will not be prompted.
you will set that register decimal 1. that is solved problem
I have a HTC Tytn II and i get the same error. However, When trying to alter data using the reg editor you recommended, i found the 0000101a was already set to 1. Any other ideas?
Hi All,
Would someone be so kind to me a explain how I can move a package from the EXT directory or one Kitchen to the EXT directory on this version of kitchen.
I thought I could just simply copy the directory? So I had a go compiling a version of youtube from a different kitchen It would seem mot to work thou as I get the dreaded The file 'xx' cannot be opened. Ether it is not signed with a trusted certificate, or one of its components cannot be found. If the problem persists, try reinstalling or restoring the file.
Any ideas how to get this to work?
Or look for the tool MsSigner, it can be found in most kitchens.
You'll be able to sign it with a signature that is accepted after you aply the enablyRapi and SPCCerts policies.
You're probably missing a key dependency package like dshow (mshow?) or concurrence manager. Also, make sure the shortcut path is valid. Lord knows why, but that's the message you get for bad shortcuts.

All of a sudden too. Everything was fine then I got these certificate errors every time I try to run Haret.exe to run android. This happened last night. Did my provider change something on me?
I try to change that registry key and it won't let me.

Hi all,
I've installed DFT' s WP7 to my LEO and it's working perfect! Thank you DFT I' ve activated my account by calling MS US and got the activation code. But when i try to install an app (free apps) marketplace always shows me an error "can't get this info right now. check back in a while".
I' ve tried everything i found on the web (deleting cookies, hardreset, softreset) but nothing changed.
I've installed zune to my pc and set my computer's region same with the device, signed in to zune with the activated live id and installed some free apps but they are not appearing on the device. Is there anything blocked for my device? As i seen from people who purchased an original WP7 having this problem and does not know how to solve it.
One thing i did not try is adding a credit card for my account??? I'm not living in USA so it does not accept European credit cards.
Any helps appriciated!
hey guys, no answers??
me too...............T-T
Same problem here
there is a problem with Marketplace right now, so, they were correct in asking you to "try again later"
I've seen this pop up on twitter today.

5. On your device, using TouchXplorer, copy \My Documents\My Ringtones\CustClear.provxml to \Windows\

Has anybody written one? I've seen lots of apps that include this binary, but they all use provisioning for registry writes and a homebrew WinCE DLL for registry reads. That's great, except that in Mango you can't use the homebrew DLLs anymore.
I'd like to write an app that can read and write specific values (the signed DLL doesn't appear to support browsing). The catch is, of course, no dependency on unsigned native code.
If somebody has already written an app or library that does this, and doesn't mind sharing the code (I'll open anything I write with it, of course) that would be awesome.
hm you don't need provisioning for registry editing with this HTC DLL, I think. The DLL provides functions that enable you to edit/read registry entries. The provision part is used for this provider specific configurations.
And there should be a way to use these homebrewn registry editors to use in Mango. People around here report that they installed the apps while running NoDo and then using Ansars method to upgrade to Mango. But unfortunately it didn't worked for me so far
If somebody is intrested we can make a port of our app (which generates on device provxml files) available for htc devices. Ill need somebody to help me out with some testing. It works already on samsung devices on mango, file operations and stuff.
i just need to know where the provxml needs to be installed to and i think we can find a way to make it work.
Pm me if you are intrested.

Let us talk about that when the Samsung version is finished. I also have a HD7.
The problem is that the HTC Connection Setup deletes the custclear.provxml file after executing...
Have a nice day.

yes i have heard. I think we can solve this by adding a copy command to replace itself again? If we are lucky this might work. Otherwise we have to look for file transfer tools. Thank you haha i will, talk to you tomorrow.
In theory will work but once ran connection setup in mango file transfer is available via touch explorer.
Sent from Ant's HTC Mozart using XDA Windows Phone 7 App
yes, file transfer should work, if you installed the tools before the mango update. However for newer phones that do not have NoDo firmware this won't be possible anymore :/
@rudelm: That's the point of my question. I know that the HTC DLLs supposedly allow registry access, the problem is I've never seen a working example, and my skill with COM is crap.
@Marvin_S: That's a cool idea, and I can show you how to make it work even easier on HTC (I've written apps in the past that used XML provisioning on HTC; you don't even need to use Connection Setup since we have a Mango-compatible DLL to do it). The catch is that you can't use them to *read* values.
Also, I've already tried chaining the CustClear.provxml file using Connection Setup. It doesn't work - I think the file gets deleted at the end, not the start. However, HTC has a working filesystem DLL that allows moving files anyhow, so not that important. It's the registry I'm concerned about right now.
Again, if anybody has an example of working code using a ComRegRW DLL from an HTC app, please let me know!

It's actually simple, if you use another library here from XDA. Its called NativeLibrary and was made bei (nico)
With his code I was able to access the registry to change an entry. Basically it looked like this:
Code:
// check for HTC Device
bool isHTC = false;
isHTC = Device.IsHTC();
if (isHTC)
{
Device.Registry.SetStringValue("HKLM", "Software\\HTC\\HTC_Weather", "AppVersion", "1337");
contentTextBlock.Text = Device.Registry.GetStringValue("HKLM", "Software\\HTC\\HTC_Weather", "AppVersion");
//NativeHTCFileSystem.Init();
//NativeHTCFileSystem.GetFileSize("/My Documents/Explore Excel.xlsx", out fileSize);
}
else
{
contentTextBlock.Text = "Found no HTC Device :D";
}
He wrote a wrapper for different devices and included most of their dll files, so you don't have to handle the COM part. This is what I'm trying to understand next... But I bet its really ugly I never got the COM part running just by looking at reversed HTC or Samsung XAPs and I am still wondering how (nico) did it, but anyways: he helped me a lot with his source
If you put this code into a button listener, you need to push the button two times to display the new registry value as my textbox did not get refreshed. But thats the smallest problem here
It's not that difficult actually if you know C++, COM, and .Net COM Bridge.
There is nothing here specific to Windows Phone, it's all pretty standard stuff.
BTW, this is not how you should use my lib, as it is supposed to handle the device check for you.
I've not updated this for a long time, so I don't think it work on LG nor Mango.
Here is an example:
Code:
var registry = NativeLibrary.Device.Registry;
var currenttheme = registry.GetStringValue("HKLM", @"ControlPanel\Themes", "CurrentTheme");

This would be nice. Do you know if there is a similar .dll for samsung? So we will not have to go into the diagnosis menu everytime?
@Marvin_S: Yes, there's a similar app for Samsung - there's already a Samsung registry editor that works with Mango. It's nto a registry *browser* of course, but it can do read and write. I used it (at least, the writing portion) in my IE Search Switcher app too.

I'm currently setting up my VM to look into this c++ and com things, but I guess its more complicated than I thought. You've got some links to help me here getting started for WP7?
@Marvin_s: there are the XAP packages of Samsungs apps here on XDA. You can just rename the files to zip and unpack. Then you will have the Samsung specific DLLs
I have found a theoric solution so far for interop-unlocking an HTC Phone. Disassembling HTC Connection Setup (since it the HTC.Shell.Registry.dll) and modifying it using IL Spy for example and include the line of code to modify the register (the dll stated before is capable of doing this).
Windows Marketplace App is capable of installing apps with Interop Services (you can install HTC Connection in fact) so we could sniff (i.e. via Wireless) the app traffic to detect when it dowloads the xap. Then by using the router settings (or a proxy or something like that) we could divert the traffic to a modified xap so the Market will download the modified xap instead (or we could even totally use another app ).
This will work only if the market hasn't those characteristics:
* It uses HTTPS to download the xaps (by the analysis I have done so far it seems not)
* It checks in any way the downloaded xap.
Do you think it could be a good idea?
I am not an expert in those things but by discussing with a colleague he stated that could be possible (difficult however in his opinion).
Microsoft?
Do you think Microsoft guys wouldn't have thought about this before and have taken preventive measures?
Never doubt HTC's ability to compromise an OS. lol I'm not all that familiar with xaps yet but I would think they have some sort of checksum or key that it can check the app with to make sure it's not corrupt.

Indeed... plus this. A similar methodology could be used to prevent what the OP suggests. I'm certainly not trying to rain on the OP's parade... in fact I hope that siomething similar can be achieved.
ATM it looks like that the only problem is that the market xaps are digitally signed. By the way the MultipleXAPInstaller program lets you sign the package when sideloading it.
i found the latest Registry Editor can run on my hd7, so maybe the interop-unlock will happen soon.
so,is it possible to interop unlock mango HTCs ?
it will run, but it wont write the values
It runs. We have also found the DLL capable of accessing the registry (they are in HTC Hub and HTC setup) but they require interop-unlock .
the only way to interop unlock is the DFT free ROM ?
Currently DFT rom is the only way for HTC WP7 device
Well XAP files are no way tampering the interop and HTC have custom build into the OS the Interop utilities as shell dll's. e.g HTCRegistryUtility.dll which we can find in any HTC ROM.
All other COMRw or COMReg dll files what we find in HTC xap files are all wrappers to trigger the typeinfo from InprocSrvr ID's predefined for HTC Interops.
Thats the reason all phones (HTC,Samsung,LG) cannot use same Unlock methods.
Best way is to somehow poke a custom certificate to spctrustroot and sign the xap files you download with that again and install.
Or somebody has to hackdown the pacmaninstaller.dll file inside the ROM and create a updatecab for that.
