Completely remove the lock screen? - Windows 10 Mobile

Hello guys,
is there a way to completely remove the lock screen on W10M? It will be a really nice hack...
I tried this way but it doesn't work on my Lumia-950 with the latest updates (some articles said, MS disabled this tweak in the Anniversary update).

I did what? I said, the tweak described above isn't working anymore (this article said that clearly: The following registry hack no longer works after the Windows 10 Anniversary Update.) And I don't have any handset with the pre-Anniversary build of W10M to try... But it doesn't really matter: nobody will roll-back and disable updates just to get rid of the lock screen.
What's why I'm asking people who exploring registry and new possible tweaks on the platform.

[HTC] Touchxplorer release

http://forum.touchxperience.com/viewtopic.php?f=29&t=582&p=2310#p2308
julian schapman has just released touchxplorer there are some limits
it seems to only work on htc devices. Non htc devices will have to wait a bit...
The device is only meant for chevron unlocked/developer unlocked devices that are HTC
Have fun with it
As a matter of fact, tried it on Samsung Omnia 7 and it didn't work. Very promising
Hi there, I couldn't find it on Martket PLace ... so, how did u install it ? thanks.

maybe you should read the post before commenting...theres a link and a set of instructions.
Anyhow, already had it loaded on my phone since earlier. Been monitoring his site. It works as advertised. Can't wait till we get some more functionality =D
I like it. Work very well. Top!
One wish I have:
In the folder "Windows", if I mark one file, open this and go back,
its a litle bit sad, that open after from the begining "Windows", and begin not at the last opening.
You have after to scroll a long way down, till you are at the last file you see.
But its only a detail. ;-)
Very good work!
Here we go again.
Some apps in the legit market place and others in the grey market. Yay?
Is it possible to copy WP7 to PC?
works outstandingly! very fast, very smooth on my device. got a custom ringtone!!!!! thanks so much
I actually had this installed for the past week on my HD7 which is what I am typing this post on but just 10 minutes ago a message came up and stated that Touchxplorer has be revoked by Microsoft and it would not let me do anything TILL I uninstalled it. Anyone else getting this problem? Looks like I will have to reinstall it somehow.

Zune likes to relock the device which causes that error... you just need to unlock it again to get it working.... very fun game of unlocking all the time...
There's one bug: sometimes after backing to the previous folder the list displays each item twice. Except that, the app works perfectly.
Just got an error. This app has been revoked by m$hit please uninstall. Should i reinstall it and will it work?

Hi I also really tried but I can not find how to install this on my HD7
Can you or somebody please explain how ?
Did any one had success in copying files from WP7 to PC or the other way around?
I used the zune storage hack and copied some word documents on to the device, in the same folder I have put 2 ringtones I know work using ringtone installer from chevron, some photos and other files.
Sadly I can not find them anywhere on the device via Touchxplorer?
Any ideas?
The same the other way around. Found all the folders holding my music/videos (albait not with original file names) and tried copying other files in there including wp7 ringtones. I can see all items that were there when zune added them but none of the one's I copied.
Any solution?
how can i install it on my phone?

ChevronWP7 Unlocker Possible Patch by Microsoft on next Update

Tried installing, but it didn't recognize my HD2.
So following the advise to put a reg entry on my pc, Chevron opened, I checked the required boxes and tried to run, but again it wouldn't see the phone.
I finally found the makers Twitter page, saying that MS will be patching the unlocker on their first update.(proberbly the reason the site is now down).
Anyway after checking Zune on my PC, Microsoft has already installed three patches to the phone during my first Sync.
Here is the Twitter page...http://twitter.com/search?q=%23ChevronWP7
I hope there's a way round this, and I hope I'm wrong, sorry for the bad news...
EDIT: Found out that I need Development tools installed, which isn't stated in the two Threads I was reading, after more searching, I have hope again. If it works I will update this post.
Dam I need Vista SP2 or win7, xp no good.. now I've got to set up a desktop...
Edit: Finally got it working today and UK is screwed...just got off the phone wit MS (UK based folk can call: 0844 800 2400 choose option 2 and then option 7) They've stopped giving them out and to contact my operator. T-mobile UK will proberbly tell me to sod off... so I guess I'll have to wait for a Key-Gen to come out.
Hmm Then i must be just in time because i got mine unlocked a few hours ago..
Hopefully this product works like an Iphone does ( not installing any updates or w/e without notifying you ).. If it happens automatically I'm screwed because Windows Phone 7 seems to have a mind of its own doing its own updating and everything..
I had to install WP7 SDK. Without that, it would not work at all! Just worked for me.

Well the title is correct, Microsoft is patching the ChevronWP7 exploit.
The inclination that the patch has already been pushed is the incorrect part.

WP7 7.0.7355.0v KA1 unlock?

got Omnia 7 with WP7 7.0.7355.0 v (xxka1 rom).
i have copy/paste...
any1 else got this version and can confirm chevronwp7 working?
can't get it to unlock...
i could unlock previous version (before service)
now i alway get no connection... (zune etc. all running) and tried it 100times with all different settings from forums...
we were informed that after the release of Nodo
MS would kill the chevron
So I think that you can not do anything with Chevron
yeah i read that
but do i really have the NoDo update already?
Where did you get that ROM?
i had speaker replaced in warranty....
so the service updated my phone to KA1
i noticed changes only copy/paste and chevron not working anymore...
i found no other changes yet...
still only DHCP no fixed ip...
no camera settings save
maybe battery is better
no user ringtones...
so not much new...

if you have this build 7.0.7355.0,you have also integrate Nodo(copy\past and other)

Do you use Bluetooth at all? I'm having major issues with my Bluetooth and I'm hoping the update will fix it.
If you have used it did it work properly for you previously, and if it didn't, does it work now?
Sorry to hijack the thread a bit .
i haven't used bluetooth before but will try it tomorrow...
i used chevron to test my own programs and use it...
no other way as i can't get developer acc. in my country...
oh and no multitasking...or i can't find it...as seen on videos

Are you folks referring to fixed WIFI IP address? If so, the DVP has a option to set static IP address using the EM tool. I am sure other devices should have it as part of the Engineering menu somewhere.

Do you really think that Microsoft cares what you expected?.. They have a huge issue with app security and side-loading (read - the money issue ). Copy/paste feature it's just a little candy for naive enthusiasts...

I wonder if they fixed the spratic keyboard responce problems. Still, its pretty disapointing that it has taken them five months to add a feature already implimented in the original OS. Looks like we will be having to do everything ourselves like in iOS.

Simple Restart Application

I own a TMobile hTC HD7 and I have been waiting patiently for a "Restart/Soft Reset" Application to hit the Marketplace. I am actually quite surprised that not more people are interested in a simple app like that. There are countless times when my phone will start acting up or not loading applications properly, so I am constantly restarting my phone. A soft reset app would be a great addition to my phone app collection. This is more of a request as opposed to a rant. While I'm not as talented as some of the developers here, but I am quite sure that a simple restart application wouldn't be insanely hard to develop. Is there anyone out there that is willing to help me out? Or anyone else who thinks this would be a good idea? Or am I alone in this? Lol
Sent from my HD7 using XDA Windows Phone 7 App
yeah Me too.. I agree with you.. I hope someone will make a restart software or a task manager software...
Well its nice to know that I wasn't the only one who would like to see a Soft Reset Application with the Windows Phone 7 theme and feel as the UI. I hope someone amazing comes across this thread and makes this a reality.

Does it actually need a UI? Wouldn't a tile pinned to start do just fine? I mean, what would be included in the UI apart from a "reboot" button?
Well i guess it wouldn't need some crazy elaborate UI.... Just an icon nice enough to put on my home page.

I personally don't see a need for such an app but I'll knock something together over the weekend. So basically just an icon you place on your home screen that, when pressed, reboots your phone? right?
Yes something along those lines.... Obviously something that kinda fits the whole Windows Phone 7 Metro Theme... But the reason why I thought a UI would be necessary... Would be a Settings page... To have the icon that is placed on the homeacreen able to do different functions that each user could specify on their own. But definitely a way to simply Restart the phone...
Sent from Projekt hTC HD7
And yea man.. Thanks a lot for attempting this.... Like I have stated before... I am not a developer myself otherwise I would've made something like this a while ago... But I am quite sure that this wouldn't be an insanely difficult task.... But regardless your efforts are well appreciated... Looking forward to seeing this evolve.

Well, that just confused me again
Either you want a tile which will reboot your phone (for which I personally see no use - as it's easy enough to just press the power button for 2 seconds) or you want ... err, well ... something completely different
In any case, I've written an app that will do just this - clicking it will ask you if you want to reboot or shutdown the device. No bells or whistles - this is all it does. Will have to tidy up the code a bit, but I'll get it attached here later tonight or tomorrow.

You'd be surprised
There are no APIs available for this so I've had to write native code to get it working - which means it will never be available in the marketplace and will only run on developer-unlocked devices.
Yes, this will be a handy tool. Another added feature I've missed on WP7. This & a screen capture app are all I'm really missing, app-wise that is.
O man.. That kinda sucks for me... I don't have a unlocked device... Mine is Tmobile hTC HD7... but whatever then... I'm glad someone out there tried.. And allowed others to benefit from it... Thanks

Don't want to replace Lumia 640XL -- Any fix for WhatsApp after 2020?

Hello everyone! My mom is currently using a 640XL. She's very happy with it. The phone works well, looks good. But there's a problem. WhatsApp will no longer be supporter after 2020. I'm looking for a fix, some way that she can keep this app. Does that exist?
Worst case scenario, can Google store be downloaded into the phone so she can access it from there? I know there's a way to do this with Kindle tablets but unsure if it applies to windows phones.
I'm not a programmer or even programming literate but will try and follow instructions if there's anything to be done.
Thanks for any tips.

Hi there,
I tried it on a Lumia 950XL WoA, and it works. Not sure, that notifications will come with a new message.
I tried the same on a Lumia 710 (WP 7.8) and it sent me to the Store and recommanded WhatsApp. When I tried to install WhatsApp (knowing it can't be installed anymore), the store told me to update my phone.
So you allways will need an Android or iOS device to install your WhatsApp and keep it running, and you can hope that WhatsApp will update their Website in order to prevent you from getting to the App store.
Best wishes, Joachim

If someone is interested, whatsapp web works in windows 10 mobile using Monument Browser, which is a very good browser you can find in the store.
You'll need a master phone with android or ios app to setup the link.
It seems to me that notifications won't work, but maybe changing some setting in the browser can also fix notifications.

After a hard reset of 950 XL Whatsapp no longer works.
After a hard reset, for me a new installation, I would not get WhatsApp any more. If WhatsApp would run once more, I would suggest to make a WpInternals Backup...
Just to read old messages: Turn on flight mode and reset date to January 13. Do not try to answer an old message...
So for me, patching WhatsApp would help.
Regards, Joachim
I've been using that method for a few weeks now, but needed a few tweaks to get it working at it's best (which isn't perfect!). I've put a guide HERE https://forum.xda-developers.com/windows-10-mobile/whatsappweb-w10m-t4036235

Thank you, it works for me as for you. 65% zoom was a good suggestion. Pinning to my home screen did not work, but I use Monumentum only for WhatsApp, so there is no problem.
