Here is how to register your phone as a developer phone FOR FREE....
1. Get and verify a Dreamspark account. Two options here....
a. If you are a student with an email address ending in .edu just go to www.dreamspark.com, register and verify the email address.
b. If you are not a student or are not in the USA, follow the steps in this link to setup a .edu account, then register and verify the email address. The Tech Game - How to get Free Dreamspark and XNA membership
2. Create an Apphub account and link it to your Dreamspark LiveId.
a. After Dreamspark is verified, go to App Hub - home register your Windows Live ID and signup as a student. It will ask if you have a verified Dreamspark account, follow the steps to link the two accounts. (I didn't take screenshots but intuitive)
3. Populate your required profile information to the point that "My Dashboard-->My Windows Phone" does not show any more pending tasks.
a. You MUST go through the process to submit a "DummyApp" for Windows Mobile 6.5 to Windows MarketPlace before Geotrust will send you the email to verify your identity. Just put "Dummyapp for id verification" in the notes sections. You will have to upload a .cab and a bunch of icons that all have to be sized properly. Just take a .png file and resize it a bunch of times and upload it. Doesn't matter what it is.
b. Geotrust will send an email requesting you to verify some info. I received it about 10 minutes after submitting my app, but could take 24 hours. I answered 4 questions, and then about 2 hours later Apphub took off the "identity verification pending" alert.
c. I also submitted my bank account info, but not sure if this was necessary.
4. Download the Windows phone developer tools from here http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/e...c-8b51b34b00ce
5. Run the Windows Phone Developer Registration tool. Sign in with Windows Live ID you registered at AppHub, connect your phone and make sure it is not screen locked, viola, Windows 7 Phone now unlocked. And you can unlock 2 other Windows 7 phones too for a total of 3 phones.
Total process took less than 24 hours due to waiting on Geotrust and MS confirm.

You don't need to submit a dummy app anymore.

Yeah, I got this email from them a while back:
July 22, 2011
Now that the next release of the Windows Phone Marketplace App Hub has launched, we are reaching out to make you aware of a change to the registration process and how it may impact your account.
In the new release of App Hub, publisher identification for Student accounts happens in real-time during account registration. You no longer have to submit an application to trigger a separate publisher identity verification process.
Since you have not yet submitted an application, the next time you sign in to App Hub, you will notice your account will be reverted back to Step 1 of the registration process. All of the information you have previously provided will be pre-populated and you will be asked to follow the onscreen instructions to complete your account activation.
Once you've completed registration your account will be immediately activated and you can unlock your phone for in-device testing. This will greatly simplify the process of getting your account activated and, ultimately, your apps published to the Windows Phone Marketplace.
If you have any questions or concerns, please contact [email protected] and we will be happy to assist you.
Best regards,
The Windows Phone Marketplace Team

than this ain't for you. This is only for students.

For the record its not any .edu
I have two different ones from two different schools and they both don't work.

if you are a college student, you can simply ask your IT departement to join microsoft dreamspark. and it would be easier to register.

[Signatures] ☎ Create your own mobile devices timeline (phones history) - super easy

[Signatures] ☎ Create your own mobile devices timeline (phones history) - super easy
Hi,
A new free web service has been just released - Mowned.com.
You can create your own mobile devices showcase (timeline).
As users creates timelines (eg: add phones and year when they got them), some interesting data will appear (such as: appreciations, devices owned by years, etc - for example check this page).
.. but let's go back to the forum signature. You can create easily signature image that can be used in forums, etc. For an example of a generated signature check mine.
Steps:
Login with Facebook - just click that button, confirm the dialog from Facebook then your account is automatically created
Add your phones - the process is intuitive, you will see once you finish step 1
After you added all your phones click "Activate image signature" from bottom of your dashboard
Copy desired BBcode code generated with the signature image
That's all. You can have your signature in minutes.. in the case you remember all the data .
You may observe that some years in the signature are in gray color instead black. Black means that device is still owned, gray = device gone.
PS: phone years is not mandatory but nice to have (for statistics, as written above)
The service can be acccesed via:
mowned.com - users mobile devices timelines
Available signature formats

Re
thanks i will try it out

Would be great if you didn't need to use Facebook for it to work.

XperienceD, "Login with Twitter" may be implemented soon. It's that ok for you, since Twitter share less information than Facebook?
Thanks

^^^ Exactly what he said ^^^ I have no FaceBook account. I have no twitter account. I only have a G+ account because I need a Google account for my Android phone to function fully.
I look forward to the day when FB suddenly goes out of business and all these other companies are screwed - why they can't simply create their own log-in - or even better not require one - I don't understand.

Love the idea but why do you need a login in the first place?
I would remove the need (maybe give the option to) to get more people using it.. what's to stop someone else making a site that does the same but with no login?

Yeap, but in future you get new devices so you need to update current phones list (timeline). If the phone's aren't linked to an user account you cannot edit..

I guess sites uses Login/Connect via Twitter, Google, Yahoo, Facebook because:
1) users that are using those platforms don't have to complete registrations forms.. just a few clicks and voila, you have access to the site. I personally prefer to login with Twitter and if I like a site and have this option I would sign in using this alternative
2) sites programmers don't have to stress with users creating process, eg: captcha, e-mail validation,etc.. Plus they got extra information, especially from Facebook, such as interests, etc (mowned.com doesn't store such information)

Login it's needed because:
- phones are linked to an account
- edit phones list in future (eg: add new device, correct device year from - to, etc)
- user-based phone list helps improve the statistics per phone, for example see this link: http://mowned.com/devices/samsung-galaxy-nexus-i9250
- rate phones (for the sake of statistics again)
So.. what's the purpose you may ask? Well, this way we may see most appreciated phones by owners, phones owned by years, most owned phones.. It's true that you need some amount of data to a have a proper view..
I will implement in the next days a solution for login with e-mail and password (so an valid e-mail and password is needed for registration).
Edit:
Has anyone tried this?

Hello,
Now there's the option to sign up with an e-mail.

Seems to work, but I didn't get the timeline signature picture at the end.
Maybe it's because of my username with the underscore => "IT_ler" ?!
Or do I have to wait after creating my timeline before the jpg will be made and provided?
This should be the link for my timeline signature picture:
[url=http://mowned.com/it_ler][img]http://mowned.com/sig/it_ler.jpg[/img][/url]
EDIT:
Now it's fixed and working fine !

It_ler, yeap it was the underscore, the route didn't know about it (only about "-") so an 404 error was triggered. Now it's fixed.
Thank you for the report!

Cool! just don't like the red ad
Thanks a lot anyway!

XxStatiX thanks, now the logo part is tweaked a bit. Indeed it was too bulky and took too much space. + now it can show up to 11 phones instead 10. Do you think it's ok now?
(if you see no changes you have to refresh the page to force a new fresh request - instead it will show from your browser cache)

Okay i'm checking it out! Is it your website?

Thank you.. and yes

Used your website.. nice.. can you make it stretchable? I mean to different size option for image..
Just a suggestion to improve.. its nice already.. thank you..
Sent from the MUST have app!

nitubhaskar thank you!
Now the image stretches horizontally (its width) automatically. Eg: if you owned only 3 phones no need to make it 500px long..
Thanks for giving me this idea. So your signature image is 324 x 80 instead 500 x 80.
That's what I could do at the moment. The signatures aren't customizable per user (at least ATM).

Yay its Fixed! Exactly what i wanted,Adding phones now! Wait
Thanksssss!

Glad you like it and thanks for sharing!

Hi,
Now minimal information about most popular mobile phones (from mowned users input) is shown in main page of the site.
I'm thinking to add in near future an option for those who want only to generate signature images without creating an account. This data will not be merged with user phones database, so it will not help/affect the main statistics.

I've gotten the same thing multiple times today.
For me, its on every XDA page that I enter.
But, I keep getting the same malware warning for "security.rltk.us " Doing research on that now.
Update: When I try to go to "security.rltk.us" I get a 403. When I google that malware, all that shows up is results for XDA and another supposedly infected site.

just started getting this same thing earlier today. Wasn't getting it this morning though.

Put adblock from the chrome store on. It clears it up. And you can remove later after XDA cleans up
Sent from my SPH-L710 using xda app-developers app

I'm a little surprised there isn't more discussion of this. I'm far from an expert but poking around the many JS files used on XDA I've noticed some suspicious shellcode in one of the Ad providers scripts. I'm fairly sure shellcode is not a common thing to use for an ad platform so maybe the ad provider has had part of their ad framework compromised? It's strange to see unobfuscated shellcode though, which seems rather lazy for typical browser exploits so this may just be strange/legitimate use of shellcode.
Again, by no means is this a definitive thing, just an observation based on what I understand.
EDIT: Looks like since last night Chrome is no longer reporting malware, so possibly the offending ad was removed? And it would appear the ad provider does intentionally use shellcode, as it's still present in their scripts.

I've flagged this for the server guru to take a look at. Not sure if he's around much the next day or two but it will be looked into folks don't worry.

Was curious myself and just did a little more digging on security.rltk.us. Appears Google Safe browsing has the originating site as blacklisted due to being categorized as "Adult & Pornographic content". No other checkers that knew of it had anything negative and not going to dig much further since 1) It's being addressed by mod and 2) Appears issue is cleared. Likely an ad associated with this domain and the message triggered because of the blacklist?
Per Sucuri SiteCheck the site itself has been blacklisted but clean, and provided a clean security report (warnings found):
Blacklisted: Yes
Malware: No
Malicious javascript: No
Malicious iFrames: No
Drive-By Downloads: No
Anomaly detection: No
IE-only attacks: No
Suspicious redirections: No
Spam: No
Plus it lists other sites that checked the domain and cleared it:
* Domain blacklisted by Google Safe Browsing: security.rltk.us - reference
* Domain clean by Norton Safe Web: security.rltk.us - reference
* Domain clean on Phish tank: security.rltk.us - reference
* Domain clean on the Opera browser: security.rltk.us - reference
* Domain clean by SiteAdvisor: security.rltk.us - reference
* Domain clean on Sucuri IP/URL malware blacklist: security.rltk.us - reference
* Domain clean by the Sucuri Malware Labs blacklist: security.rltk.us - reference
* Domain clean on Yandex (via Sophos): security.rltk.us - reference

Typically the "Red page of death" will come up when someone has linked an image to a hostname that is on the malware blacklist from Google, as conantroutman stated.
If there is an ad causing this (ie, if you see it on more than one thread) then it is possible there is a "Bad ad" being served. These are so customized that likely however much browsing I do I'll never come across it, so if anyone does have this issue and has the ability to determine which script exactly is causing the error, would love to hear it so we can yell at our ad provider.
That includes any shellcode that is being performed by an ad, would be very curious what they are doing.
We are blacklisting security.rltk.us from posting ads, the tough part is sometimes the ad is actually served from somewhere else that forwards to that domain name.

I think it's Google job they hate xda for mods/hacks like 4.2 camera is now blocking(ask to delete download links)

It's not Google. It's members who insist on using shady sites to host their photos and stuff. Those sites are blacklisted by Google and that's why the warning comes up.

I'm getting a warning for valid.canardpc.com when I try to go to this XDA page: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2483043&page=33

XDA Portal Security Update

We wanted to respond to the post on the Full Disclosure mailing list (link) regarding a vulnerability on XDA.
We can confirm that an admin account was compromised on the Portal portion of our site (also known as the blog or front page), however, no user accounts in the forums were compromised. XDA exists on two separate systems that live in two separate server environments and no user data is stored on the Portal servers where the issue happened.
At this point it appears that an admin account was compromised and used to gain access to the backend code on the WordPress site. We have patched this exploit and are continuing to review our code and policies to prevent this type of thing from happening again. We take security very seriously.
As a safety precaution, we've asked all Portal editors to change their password. Again we have no concern or evidence that XDA's user accounts were in any way compromised.
Our thanks to Steffen for reporting this. His attempts to contact us via other channels were unsuccessful mainly because we receive many emails on a daily basis about various topics, including people falsely claiming that our site is hacked. If anyone has information regarding a vulnerability, they can use the technical contact form on our site with details, or email me directly at security + at + xda-developers.com. When reporting a security vulnerability, make sure to include specific details so that we know that it is a real issue.

To follow up on what bitpushr said above, we've decided to create a dedicated page on the site where people from the community can report security vulnerabilities and understand our disclosure policy. Look for that in the coming days. In the mean time, feel free to use his email if you want to directly reach him and our team.

Thank you
Thank you for informing everyone about the incident and for taking user security serious.

Portal is hacked again.

The amount of E-Mail notifications is too damn high...

As the title said it the standard options allow E-Mail notifications about just anything happening on xda-developers. I was so surprised about the amount of xda-mails I started to wonder if it is a spam distriibutor.

As stated you can turn off, your notifications or leave them be, for those that are in the forums daily and have multi-threads, it works for them. If you are not active them turn it off, the benefit is for the user to be...notified of threads they post in or track.
And for some checking emails are a daily thing, in this day in age, some live by emails.

I turned off all E-Mail notifications and still get spammed by xda when someone replies to me or follow thread. I am ****ing tired of your **** spamming already! Because of it I accidently deleted some important E-Mails.

So it is XDA's fault that you deleted "important" emails, I for one use a different email for the important emails, but I manage 4 different emails, work, work, home and XDA. But seems you have not turned off your XDA email notifications, or your XDA notifications. Maybe you can just uninstall XDA from your device, or check the threads below, to see if helps with your issue.
BTW posting in this manner, will not get your issue resolved, but it will get you an infraction against your account, we understand your frustration, but the task falls on you to correct.
Maybe there is some help in these threads for you:

@T.C.Stockdale Actually, I'd love to learn how to receive an email notification if "someone replies to me" i.e. if I'm mentioned or quoted. I'm not talking about an alert in browser or app. I believe I really tried everything but I'm unable to figure out how to receive such an email notification. Currently, I think it's just not implemented, and therefore I'm even more wondering why and how @heyadmwutanime gets these emails as stated?

Not sure how others or you have it set, I, in my preferences, have checked the email options checked for everything listed in there, I use a different email for XDA, as stated, so my home, work emails don't get overwhelmed, and the emails do come in, along with the app notifications, this way I don't miss anything, that I want to know about. Not sure why you don't get them, but I do, and seems others are, hence the OP's post.
Unless I have a special account, highly doubt it, just a regular Member, so if I get them, not sure why others are not.

No, no. All above is clear. I tried all settings in preferences, too. But then I receive an email notification whenever somebody posts in a thread, in which I've also ported i.e. interacted with. Such an email notification, I don't want to receive; only an email notification when I'm mentioned or quoted. But as I said, I think this isn't implemented and as such not selectable.
Therefore my current preferences look like this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
