Hello,
I own a Samsung Omnia 7 (no carrier locked) and mine is distributed without internet sharing availiable: this option is now shown on my phone.
Of course I tried all the hacks suggested here, but they do not work with this phone. Surfing this and other forums I decided to try to find a solution myself, and I would like to share my findings here, so to get some advices from more-expert-wp7-exploiters and to share, if I find, a solution.
My approach now is to surf the registry looking for the correct keys to change to enable it.
I am using, as source, the provxml (gen2) provided by voluptuary here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=19083920&postcount=1
These are the steps I have in mind:
1- find and enable the show-up of "ICS" option in the settings menu surfing the reg
2- using the information in the above mentioned provxml file, try to use ICS.
Current knowledge (I just started)
- the "phone settings menu" items seem to be ruled by HKEY/Local Machine/Software/Microsoft/Settings: here I find all the descriptions of the items shown in the phone settings menù
I hope someone will cooperate with me, sharing knowledge.
Thanks,
p.s. if this thread is misplaced in this sub-forum, I sincerely apologize and ask to move it in the most appropriate one.
What exactly are you trying to do? I have enabled ICS on my Omnia7 through the registry just fine, though it needed some editing after 8107 update.

Hello,
thanks a lot for replying to this post.
I am trying to enable ICS on my Omnia W (not Omnia 7) which never had ICS (the option was not and is not present under my "Settings" page).
Using "WP7 Root Tools v0.9" I applied manually the registry settings found in the provxml (gen2) provided by voluptuary here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...20&postcount=1
(I must admit I was not able to add the "boolean" values, such as
Code:
<characteristic type="HotSpot">
<parm name="Enabled" datatype="boolean" value="true" />
because WP7 Root Tools does allows only for DWORD/String values)
but without success: I was not even able to have the ICS option shown up in the settings page.
Do you have any suggestion ?

The gen2 should work just fine on your Omnia W, I've personally used it on my mother-in-laws Focus Flash (same as Omnia W) and it worked just fine. The values in the provxml are all valid and correct to enable ICS so if you can't get it to work the it is something specific to your device that is going wrong. Basically if you can interop unlock to use Root Tools you can get ICS using my XAP.

It should works fine also on Omnia W/Focus Flash with the latest update installed? My friend can't activate ICS on his W with 8107...
I also have the W, but branded VOD-IT that comes with ICS enabled: if I revert back to 7740 and then I debrand and update via Zune to the 8107, will I loose the ICS service?
Thanks...

Depends on what firmware you have but if you can interop unlock then you can get ICS.

thanks a lot for taking time to help me.
In fact I am interop unlocked via windowsbreak,which uses the same provxml technique as your files, but when I apply yours, I do not see the "system tweaks" in the diagnosis app,I see only the standard ones plus windowbreak one,this is why I am trying with the manual approach.
I tried also uninstalling diagnosis and repeating the procedure from scratch, but I am stuck at the same point.
Do you have any suggestions?
Thanks again.

Did you update your phone after you used WindowsBreak? Cuz if you did that's your problem, you updated your firmware. If not... well then it should work.

Yes, I did updated my phone after the windows break, but I am still interop unlocked and I can still see the "windowbreak" inside the "GPS manager" diagnosis menù.
I applied manually all the registry settings in your gen2 provxml file, setting the boolean val as DWORDS (as suggested by drkfngthdragnlrd), but I still cannot see the ICS option in my settings menu.
Any clues ?

I'm in the same situation... If I restore the old firmware, then I enable ICS and finally I update my Windows Phone, the ICS still here?
And about the update to 8107 with cab sender, it broke future update on Omnia W... :S

ICS should still be there, infact if you update with CAB sender you can op to NOT install the firmware update. Just install the OS update. In order to ensure that you don't break future update you need to be sure to include all the language CAB's for the languages currently on your phone. If you do that you will be fine. Heathcliff74 has tools to help you figure out what CAB's you need to send over in his CAB update thread.
Sorry, I was wrong when I says that CAB sender brokes Samsung update on Omnia W.
I reverted back to 7720 and then updated to 8107 via Zune: then I've unbranded the phone to recive the Samsung update that returned the famous error 8018001E... So it's an incompatibility of the Samsung update with my (and other VOD-IT) Samsung Omnia W. Sorry for the OT and thanks...

Above is a link. If you have AT&T you are about to be very happy. Everyone who debranded your phone to get pre-nodo and NoDo, don't forget to go back and re-brand your phone if you want the OFFICIAL Mango update next tuesday, 9/27/2011. Remember, the correct brand if you live in the US is "ATT-US" without quotes. LG Quantum users, remember, when you use MFG...
A-Launch MFG and enter the password 277634#*# when prompted for it.
B-Tap the Engineer Menu item.
C-Tap the Other Setting menu item.
D-the Edit registry menu item.
E-Set the input boxes on this menu as follows:
Select ROOT_PATH: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
Input SUB_PATH: \System\Platform\DeviceTargetingInfo\
Input KEY: MobileOperator
Select Data Type: STRING
Input Data: ATT-US
Select "Set"
Then double check and select "Query"
You should get a data string that says
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\platform\devicetargetinginfo\]
"mobileoperator" = ATT-US
Thanks for the reminder!
I don't lnow if it makes a difference, but the quotes are present on my ATT Focus. Like this "ATT-US"

According to the reports, the HD7S will be updated some time later after the other AT&T WP7 phones are updated. But if you're on T-Mobile with an HD7, who knows?
Actually, I don't need to rebrand my quantum. I'll still get the att update even with my mo as 000-00 because I have a C900AT.

Install unlock.xml onto your device, then you can unlock your phone using GPRS settings. There are a lot of threads here which teach you how to do it.
Does anyone have some instructions for performing this task on a Samsung Focus?

I don't see how this is a valid excuse given that the thread has Samsung Focus in the title.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1224139
Could someone please query the default ATT registry values for these two strings for the LG quantum, I've searched thoroughly and cannot find them posted anywhere:
[HKLM\System\Platform\DeviceTargetingInfo\]
MobileOperator = ATT-US
MOName = AT&T Wireless
OEMDeviceName = PACIFIC_ATT_US
Thank you
edit, i have found the values by flashing an ATT ROM and reading them myself, I share them with all now.

As I have posted yesterday in the chevron thread:
If you have a stock rom atm only possible for Samsung and LG phones.
HTC owners can put HSPL from Cotulla on their devices and flash a custom rom, so Chevron unlock isn´t needed...

I didn't want to risk bricking it so it has the official Mango update and now chevron unlocked.
BTW is there anyway of seeing if the phone has 11n enabled or not?

little pointer Advanced Config Tool is for Interop unlocked handsets and I can't find a reg editor yet that isn't Interop
Just as I thought ANY root tool or reg tool CANNOT be run at the moment on NON-Interop unlockable Mango handsets ie, HTC

its a shame changes cant be saved without interop .. impossible for me .
Most of dev-unlocked custom ROMs miss a possibility to use Visual Studio debugger. In this case you get something like "Application could not be launched for debugging. ..."
I found out registry entries missed in these roms. Most likely you'll be unable to access these keys, so just ask your rom chef to add them. Here they are:
Code:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\OOM\DoNotKillApps]
"\\Application Data\\Phone Tools\\10.0\\CoreCon\\bin\\ConmanClient3.exe"=""
"\\Application Data\\Phone Tools\\10.0\\CoreCon\\bin\\edm3.exe"=""
Of course, standard unlock registry entries are still required.
Just wanted to add if you're adding this via WP7 Root Tools -- say, your retail phone was broken like mine -- a value of . will do. (You can't input values with NULL data.)
Grr... I *still* can't get "The application could not be launched for debugging..." every time. I've used the DllImport project to confirm that ConmanClient3 and edm3 are both running, but it doesn't help.
Windows Phone Device Manager is also unable to launch TouchXperience automatically; I have to launch it manually.
HTC HD7, stock ROM, 7720.68 RTM, firmware is *.*.3XXXX.* (yes, intentially out of date on OS and firmware, but I wouldn't expect that to be a problem). So far as I can recall, it never worked, certainly never on Mango.

I cannot launch any apps for debugging either on my Samsung Omnia 7, DFT Rainbow rom. Other apps like phone7market cannot open apps either!
I am not a tech support either for custom ROMs or for stock ROMs. Works on my phone (Mozart, Mango 7720-7740-8107) so no proofs should be required.
Here are basic unlock entries I set on my custom rom:
Code:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\Security\LVMod]
"DeveloperUnlockState"=dword:1
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\DeviceReg]
"PortalUrlInt"=""
"PortalUrlProd"=""
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\DeviceReg\Install]
"MaxUnsignedApp"=dword:7fffffff
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\DeviceReg]
"Environment"=dword:1
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\OOM\DoNotKillApps]
"\\Application Data\\Phone Tools\\10.0\\CoreCon\\bin\\ConmanClient3.exe"=""
"\\Application Data\\Phone Tools\\10.0\\CoreCon\\bin\\edm3.exe"=""
I'll check that "Environment" value, but the others are s I have them. Thanks for the info though!
I just noticed that those keys you mentioned in the first post do not persist for some reason. I'm pretty sure I did add them and now they aren't there.
Hi guys
i'm using a lumia 930 with the actual wp10 build.
yesterday i had to learn, there is no way to use a static ip for my wlan.
ok, i could buy an app, witch would do it.

is there anyway to do this by my self?
of course

Root tool is your problem. It used to work fine previously but now it's quite useless. Don't know why. Try with another reg tool.

hi sorry for posting in old thread...
i've just updated my old lumia1020 to the latest w10m version 10.0.15254.369
i was hoping that in this version that the static ip option was enabled by default...
i was wrong...
need static ip option badly since my home and office wifi need to manually configure the ip/dns setting before i can use the network...
is there any way to configure static ip without interop unlock (or is it safe to use wp internal to unlock root with my current w10m build on nokia lumia 1020?? i update them using iutool method)

These settings aren't available in Windows 10 Mobile 1703+ due to new WiFi menu. But the old one isn't deleted, it's just hidden. You can use Interop Tools to run it and to change Static IP settings there.
Go to Interop Tools - General - Applications - Package List (swipe left from Deployment options). Find WiFi package there, tap on it and use Launch App button to open it. There you can find Static IP settings.
Of course, you must activate Static IP settings at first. You can use the tweak in Interop Tools for it or the provisioning package (you can find it, for example, here).

Just when I had lost all hope! Thanks! It didn't show when I searched in the box in the upper part but it there if you scroll all the way down to W.
Continuum is such a great feature that turns your phone into a big-screen projector, it supports officially a few phones because it requires good specs to run it as well.
Anyway, there is a way to enable Continuum on any windows 10 mobile phone via Miracast (Wi-Fi), it does even work on lumia 630 .
What you need to know first
1- you will do this at your own risk
2- this can cause some problems, one of these problems is that .XAP apps like Whatsapp won't work anymore unless you reset your phone
3- your phone needs to be interop unlocked, if you want to do it check this thread (Interop Tools): https://forum.xda-developers.com/windows-10-mobile/windows-10-mobile-apps-and-games/app-interop-tools-versatile-registry-t3445271
4- Continuum will only work via Miracast and not via the dock.
And now, let's get started!
-----
How To
1- Download this cab on your PC from here :
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B-txDcTZoU6Mbi00bTNuWUxIUUE/view
and move it to a new folder, make sure that the name of the folder doesn't contain a space, name it with a simple name
2- download iutool on your PC (Size: 4MB)
Download link : https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B-txDcTZoU6MNnowSi0tMDdJbXc/view
extract it to a new folder
3- on your pc run the Command Prompt as administrator
go through the CMD to the folder where you extracted iutool
4- Type this command on cmd :
iutool -l
Your phone information must show up.
now type this command :
iutool -V -p "the path of the folder where you put the cab file"
for example: iutool -V -p F:\Continuum
Note: if you get an error try again, if you got it again open your phone and go to update settings and try again.
5- Now your phone must install the cab file
6- after the installation process you need to create a registry, if you have the last version of Interop Tools on your phone it will be very easy to do it, just open Interop Tools, go to Tweaks and enable "Force Continuum via Miracast on unsupported devices" and restart your phone.
If you have another registry editor (in other words: you want the long way ) follow these instructions:
Create a new registry.
Registry Type: Integer
Registry key path: HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\shell\docking
Registry Value Name: EnabledForTest
Registry Value Data: 1
and then restart your phone and Continuum should work.
Possible problems:
1- As I said first .XAP apps may not work any more.
2- If you will connect it to a PC, the keyboard and the mouse of the pc may not work with Continuum.. so you will need to scroll and control using your phone.
3-Your phone may heating up while projecting.
Continuum will not be so fast but it's almost acceptable.
I (with my team) tested it on some phones : Lumia 630, Acer Liquid M330, Lumia 640 XL, Lumia 930 and more .... It works well!
I hope that this is helpful and better explained
If there is any question I would be happy to answer as soon as I can.
Sorry for my bad English

Hi there,
have you ever heard about respect while replying
However, I know that you can explain it within 10 words but not everyone will get it as well so I explained it step by step and so detailed possible so that everyone can do it, so I'm not f***** kidding
Plus, that thread didn't explain everything but I did!
Thank you for your reply!

Microsoft Display Dock or any other Continuum dock require some hardware features like USB Type-C the unsupported phones don't have them. So there will not be any tutorial about this sorry.

Continuum is such a great feature that turns your phone into a big-screen projector, it supports officially a few phones because it requires good specs to run it as well.
Anyway, there is a way to enable Continuum on any windows 10 mobile phone via Miracast (Wi-Fi), it does even work on lumia 630 .
What you need to know first
1- you will do this at your own risk
2- this can cause some problems, one of these problems is that .XAP apps like Whatsapp won't work anymore unless you reset your phone
3- your phone needs to be interop unlocked, if you want to do it check this thread (Interop Tools): https://forum.xda-developers.com/windows-10-mobile/windows-10-mobile-apps-and-games/app-interop-tools-versatile-registry-t3445271
4- Continuum will only work via Miracast and not via the dock.
And now, let's get started!
-----
How To
1- Download this cab on your PC from here :
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B-txDcTZoU6Mbi00bTNuWUxIUUE/view
and move it to a new folder, make sure that the name of the folder doesn't contain a space, name it with a simple name
2- download iutool on your PC (Size: 4MB)
Download link : https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B-txDcTZoU6MNnowSi0tMDdJbXc/view
extract it to a new folder
3- on your pc run the Command Prompt as administrator
go through the CMD to the folder where you extracted iutool
4- Type this command on cmd :
iutool -l
Your phone information must show up.
now type this command :
iutool -V -p "the path of the folder where you put the cab file"
for example: iutool -V -p F:\Continuum
Note: if you get an error try again, if you got it again open your phone and go to update settings and try again.
5- Now your phone must install the cab file
6- after the installation process you need to create a registry, if you have the last version of Interop Tools on your phone it will be very easy to do it, just open Interop Tools, go to Tweaks and enable "Force Continuum via Miracast on unsupported devices" and restart your phone.
If you have another registry editor (in other words: you want the long way ) follow these instructions:
Create a new registry.
Registry Type: Integer
Registry key path: HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\shell\docking
Registry Value Name: EnabledForTest
Registry Value Data: 1
and then restart your phone and Continuum should work.
Possible problems:
1- As I said first .XAP apps may not work any more.
2- If you will connect it to a PC, the keyboard and the mouse of the pc may not work with Continuum.. so you will need to scroll and control using your phone.
3-Your phone may heating up while projecting.
Continuum will not be so fast but it's almost acceptable.
I (with my team) tested it on some phones : Lumia 630, Acer Liquid M330, Lumia 640 XL, Lumia 930 and more .... It works well!
I hope that this is helpful and better explained
If there is any question I would be happy to answer as soon as I can.
Sorry for my bad English

Here is a short video to see how continuum runs on my Lumia 630 :

What do you mean with whatsapp not working anymore?? Not working on Continuum or that this method somehow breaks the app and won't work anymore?

Well I mean that this method will break the app and won't work anymore on your phone.

This means that everytime i use continuum some xaps will break?? If this is the case i don't see the point on enabling it since with this logic will break every app that is not supported by continuum
No app break if install continuum.
Well, I tried on my 630 and old 8.0 apps work fine. I didn't try whatsapp since I don't use wp as daily driver anymore.
I don't have any tv or screen that support miracast so I tried projecting to my old android tablet and it was pretty laggy. This was different than 1 sec delay, it was like a pc whose gpu driver isn't installed.
I tried it on my lumia 630 ( RS1) and my Acer Liquid m330 (RS2) and .XAP apps don't work anymore on the both of my devices.
I'm not the only one who have this problem, other people are having it.
But however, I said it's one of the possible problems and perhaps you face it or perhaps you don't!

Try doing hard reset, it's the best way to solve those errors
I've been using continuum on my lumia 1520 since months ago I found the tutorial on youtube. I installed it when I was in 14393 AU update with that cabs file.
Now I'm in fast ring 15063 CU and continuum runs better. Upgrading build will upgrade the continuum experience. In this latest FR, continuum still work when our screen locked and it's great. The ability to change screen timeout whether on phone or second display has been added.
But we will never see the improvement of continuum feature since mostly all older devices wont get the creator update nor the rest RS3. We wont witness how it can have floating windows like they showed us last year or any improvements.

It happened to me also that I couldnt update build after installing continuum, but somehow after joining fast ring, it allowed me to update my build and bringing improvements to continuum feature also. Have you tried to join fast ring?

My device has 512mb ram, I joined fast ring and got your device is up to date message. Then I quit from insider and tried installing 14393.1066 and got same error. I think I'll hard reset.
