Been trying everything on the Internet and managed to make some headway with Monet (Virgin Lobster 700tv) unlock (this might work for Meteor/C700 as well).
1. Firstly you need to get rid of the 'registry security policy' lock.
Download cert install sp.zip:
[see attachment]
a. copy "SP_AllowCertificateInstall.cab" to the root of Monet memory or card
b. Use file explorer on monet to navigate to file. Click to run. Should run ok.
c. Unzip "SDA_ApplicationUnlock.zip" on PC and run "SDA_ApplicationUnlock.exe" whilst Monet is connected via activesync
2. Copy registry editor onto Monet. I used PHM, but others should work. Note install PHM loader on PC whilst monet is connected via activesync. It might install correctly on Monet, it might not. This does not matter. Just navigate on your PC to Program Files\phm and find the .exe file and copy to root of Monet memory or card.
Also nice free remote registry editor here (works from PC whilst phone is connected via activesync):
http://www.breaksoft.com/Blog/Utilities/2005/1/Mobile_Registry_Editor.aspx
Excellent 'free' combined file explorer and registry editor (perhaps for later - after app. unlock) SGS:
http://www.handango.com/PlatformPro...925777&Ntt=registry&productId=195244&R=195244
3. Using phm (or the registry app you like) change the four keys specified in this guide (you might find the above process has already reset 1001 and 101b:
http://wiki.spv-developers.com/HTC_Application_Unlock_Guide
They are:
Under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\Policies\Policies:
a. Change the DWORD named "1001" to 1 (could originally be 2)
b. Change the DWORD named "1005" to 40 (could originally be 16)
c. HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\Policies\Policies\0000 1017 = 128 or 16 (before) 144 (after)
d. HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\Policies\Policies\0000 101b = 1 (this key might not exist, if so, create it).
4. Restart
5. HOORAY. Now your phone is fully application unlocked.
-----the following procedure is to SIM Unlock, this currently does not work. Possibly spv-services will be updated at some time to work with the Monet---->
6. Now download spv_services:
http://www.spv-developers.com/forum/showthread.php?t=236
a. copy the cert.cab file to you Monet. Select and run using File explorer. it should run fine.
b. Next step. Run SPV_services from PC whilst phone still connected via Activesync. Should unlock ..... however I get checksum error....
Will investigate. Anyone have any luck please say. At least we can now get the phone app.unlocked.
------------------------->
Note: I have read that the phone might again become app.locked if you do a hard reset. If this is the case, just follow the above again.

SPV-Services needs to access the internet.
A php is an active type of web page.
It would appear that there is something blocking it from access the internet. Most probably a firewall on your PC, either the internal windows one, or a 3rd party package you have installed. You need to check this.
If its for the Monet I wouldn't bother anyhow as SPV-Services can not currently SIMunlock this phone.

1st thing i checked was the firewall..
i know wat a php is i run a phpbb forum and yea it is a Monet (lobster 700)..
shame ( i really need to unlock the networks on it ) i have an O2 sim and wen i put it in it askes for a network unlock code.. if only i had that code.. any idea how to obtain it?
the only way currently is to use virgin or a commercial service
If you put at least £30 of talk time on your virgin account, they will send you the unlock code for free.
Otherwise search google or this forum for a commercial unlocking service.

Application Unlock for HTC Monet
Hi colonel
I have been trying in vain to do an application unlock on my Lobster 700tv. I have managed to install and run the "SP_AllowCertificateInstall.cab" which went ok. The "SDA_ApplicationUnlock.exe" also ran ok. However, running PHM required a copy to be placed on the Monet which I did. Attempting to run the "setup.exe", gave the following message:
"ALERT: Setup is Not a Valid Windows CE Application"
Because of this, I attempted to change the registry keys using "Mobile Registry Editor.exe" which seemed to do the job. However, applications still wont work (I'm trying to install TomTom Navigator 6).
I have since managed to load and run "MobileRegistryEditor.exe" on my phone without problems but I still cannot get TomTom Navigator 6 to run, although it loads onto the storage card ok.
Please can you help?
Regards,
leadweight

Used a couple of reg editors but when u change the values the phone comes back "Unable to perform this operation".
I also used the HTC unlocker which came back with the same message.
Lobster headache
Hi bocsta
I had problems to start with but I had failed to read colonel's instructions correctly. I couldn't get PHM to run on my phone so I tried some of colonel's other suggestions. I found that "SGS Explorer" did load ok and I used its registry editor to change the registry keys as listed. I am assuming that my phone is now unlocked but TomTom Navigator 6 will not run.
Can someone please help before I throw my lobster back in the sea?
Regads .....

That ROM is for a G3 Wizard, Check your PM's
ok i reflashed with your method and i'm back to my cingular rom. thanks a lot!
(big reason to go back was it was the only rom that my school's wifi app would work with, plus the love rom in combo with orwells wm6 wasn't cool. that splash was ugly IMO)

All you have to do is download and install the Ext Rom cabs manually. This may still be available on the ftp. If not PM me.
It worked for me
Thanks a lot ercave1, the ROM flashed flawlessly, however the EXT ROM didn´t came up by itself. The features I´m missing are as follows:
1.- USB switch to select activesync mode to serial or RNDIS is missing, regardless this USB sync to PC (Activesync 4.5) is alive and working well.
2.- ClearVue pdf is missing, not a big loss and I really don´t care since there´s another alternatives to read and diisplay pdf documents.
3.- GetGood and in general all connection settings! I don´t give a s**t!!
4.- MIDlet Manager, big loss... I´m going to keep trying to download Risidoro_Intent_MIDlet_ Manager_V11 whenever the ftp be up and running again. So no worries.
5.- Voice Speed Dialing Settings icon in both the Program ans Setting screens are missing, however the software is running when I press the known VSD button.
6.- Cingular carrierlogo! I don´t care I have my own logo.
And I guess that´s it !
Regardless the comments above, I´d like to learn how to "extract" the correspondent EXT ROM cab files, if you guys have and advice on it would be great.
Thanks again ercave1 for the big help

Yes, this is because the Ext Rom was wiped out by the G3 Rom having been flashed on your G4 devices. I don't remember reading about a fix for this, but you may want to search through the forum. The only solution I'm aware of is to install the Ext Rom manually.
I'm glad you guys got the device running again.

Already many know that mun built Shell Of tool, which was capable of pouring axis into Wizard G4 with [lochennym] [Sidom], but to the enormous regret it does not know how to pour with [ekstrom].
Recently it decided to be played a little with the program of nb2nbf and to verify, is it possible by nevertheless any means to renew also Extended Of rom to CID-Locked apparatuses. And which there was my happiness, when I revealed after [pereproshivki] that he renewed.
It decided by the same method to try to flood Splash Of screen and HTC Of logo - everything proved to be very simply.
In view of the small quantity of information on the forum on [devaysu] Of wizard G4, it decided to build brief instruction on its [pereproshivke].
1. We stitch through apparatus by pure piercing - Wizard_Love_2.26.10.2_WWE_Novii+CF2.
http://rapidshare.com/files/8651097/Wizard...E_Novii_CF2.rar
2. By the program of typho5 we unpack nbf the file of piercing, which we desire to pour into the beast.
First we fill up into the folder with the program of nbf, and then start with the parameter of typho5.exe - x nk.nbf. After procedure we obtain several files, in number of which is contained OS itself, Extended Of rom, and also as a rule Splash Of screen and HTC Of logo.
([ZY]. For convenience in the use of program made [batnik]. Simply you will place nbf into the folder and will neglect typho.bat)
3. Now we gather our nbf file, each at will can include any desired components in it, naturally, except axis itself.
4. We go in very [progu] of nb2nbf and we make the following tuning:
- We establish Model ID: WIZARD
Language: it is empty
OEM: it is empty
Operator of version: it is empty
CID: it is empty ([ochen]_[vazhno]); remove the numbers, which are contained inside the field
- We establish [galochku] opposite “File of # 1”, we click on the button of survey (button with three points), we find the file Of extended Of rom' and (in the folder of typho5, the exemplary name of 9b000000-Extension.nb)
- In the field “Of start Of address” we enter 9b00000
- In the field “Of image Of name” we enter Extension Of rom (not Extended Of rom, you be attentive!!!)
- In the point “Of file of # 2” we find Splash Of screen, in the field of address we enter 92000000, in the field “of image of name” we write Splash Of screen.
- In the point “Of file of # 3” we find HTC Of logo, in the field of address we write 9d000000, in the field “of image of name” we write WITH HTC Of logo.
- We press button “Translate”
- Extended ROM is ready, it is possible to stitch through.
Unnecessary for you files it is possible simply not to include, but to insert, for example, only one by [ekstrom].
5. We place the obtained file of nbf into the folder [proshivalshchikom] and start. Procedure as with the usual piercing, lasts in all the pair of minutes.
6. We pour the axis Of shell Of tool' ohm from mun' of a.
Finale - valuable piercing

I enumerated the options since each have its own reason
1- Use Winrar to open RUU.exe and use typhoonnbfdecode.pl to extract the 10MB file (0xA00000 bytes) of the extended rom from nk.nbf
2- oops, same as 1 (and its nk.nbf- not nk.nba). hehe, my mistake
3- use pdocread.exe to read BDTL1 - or TRUEFFS_DOC1 (use my Wizard Service Tool as it can be done with a few clicks )
4- Unhide extended_rom and use Active Sync to copy the files to PC (or, once again use my tool to do the same )
cheers
Sounds great to me!

Thanks a lot mestrini, I appreciate your input and I´ll give it a try right away!
After I posted ROM-cooking method to create new SoftBank flat-rate data connection, another Japanese X01HT user has found more easier way today.
I would like to introduce new method with respect for his great work...
Now you DON'T need ROM cooking!
Step 1. Unzip the attached file, and run either ConnSBM.CAB or ConnSBM_noproxy.CAB for your purpose.
ConnSBM.CAB: make a connection, overwrite WirelessMgr_Service.dll and enable hidden proxy (webopen.softbank.ne.jp:8080), it is fully compatible as X01HT's standard connection.
ConnSBM_noproxy.CAB: just make a connection (no WirelessMgr_Service.dll and hidden proxy installation).
The connection will be created, however password entry is still empty at this moment.
Step 2. Run ORE2cert.cab (self-signature certificate for WIFIwake.exe).
Step 3. Copy Out.xml and WIFIwake.exe into \Windows folder.
Step 4. Just RUN WIFIwake.exe from \Windows.
The password will be created into the connection made by ConnSBM.CAB.
To confirm whether success or not, check the connection "Internet > SoftBank", and click "Edit -> Next -> Next". If "****************" is shown at the Password field, the password has been successfully created.
Enjoy!
EDIT: Updated WIFIwake.exe as self-signed version. I've prepared Hermes and Universal version separately (the difference is internal string for each model name). For Universal, at least I could have successfully made the connection on the DarkForce WM6 for Universal.
Download ConnSBM_ORE2h.zip (for Hermes X01HT) or ConnSBM_ORE2u.zip (for Universal JASJAR) and try it again if the password is still blank.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION: It seems to depend on CID...
To make this operation correct on non-SuperCID device, it requires to edit internal device name and CID. The attached file for Hermes seems workable for X01HT(Model: HERM200/CID: VODAK801) or SuperCIDed HERM200 device only, and for Universal, also only for JASJAR (PU10/CDL__001) or SuperCIDed device.
If you cannot create PW, you need to edit CID (01C798h-01C7A7h) using Unicode or UTF-16 mode of binary editor (for non-HERM200 or PU10 device, Model [01C760h-01C76Fh] also), and sign yourself... However, if you burn them into your cooked ROM, it may works correctly without edit binary (I've successed on my JASJAR, using original WIFIwake.exe from X01HT).
You can determine your CID using info 2 command of mtty.exe.
Too bad I alreday cooked mine...
great!!
it's perfect work on my x01ht with wm6lvsw edition!!
thank you
WOW! Amazing! Beautiful!
Thank you so much! I love it!
Will you understand the password?
Because it is necessary when using it from the personal computer as a
modem.
Doesn't work with Treo 750v
It seems this CAB utilize WiFi manager or something?
When I extracted the files from ZIP and executed the CAB, copy the Out.xml and WIFIwake.exe to \Windows folder and executed WIFIwake.exe, nothing happens. The connection Internet was created but the password is still blank.
Password Not Made in My hTc Universal
Hi Itamae!
Very Very Good Job!!
But Dont Create Password in my Universal.Of course installing According to the procedure.
Please Help.
My Universal is 02 Xda Exec
ROM:2.10.04JPN
Radio:1.08
Nice, I was messing around and the wifiwake will not put the password without the out.xml file but I was able to edit the text in the out.xml (which was about 300 letter As) and add some more random letters in there and it created it. Anyone think they can decompile the exe and look for the actual password?
Succeeded New SoftBank AP!!
VeryVery Thanks Itamae!!
Exec ROM Changed SuperCID,I Succeess Created New AP.
Not only Hermes JPN cross bow has came!
But also Soft bank connection in defualt!

But you can pass this by unchecking the "Internet proxy" under Setting->Connection->Softbank
You have to do this everytime you use Wifi.

not working with dark force 2.0
It is bad news!
I just think to upgrade to Black v2.0.
Any reason for this?
Waiting for your work-around!
I am using MicorX WM6 which includes this batch in the rom.
It surely works well after April.

and that should be it i hope!!!! also, i think i remember needing a codec to play xvids through tcpmp but i cannot find anything that i have archived on my computer... so if anyone has that please let me know.
if there are any other precautionary measures that i can take PLEASE let me know. i 'somewhat' understand how the hardspl works, is that the only protection i have? should i clear up my phones memory? i doubt there is anything like a 'scandisk' or anything for the type of memory the phone uses but i just want to be 1000000% sure that this flash will be successful thats all. thanks guys up front for a great community and any help is GREATLY appreciated.
yeah, do HardSPLv7 first... Then do the Unlocker... then do whatever you want.

No do the unlocker first...it loads HardSPL (1.40.oli) onto the device....it will downgrade the SPL if you run it second.
Once that is done...load HardSPLv7 onto it.
Then follow the list you said.
great!! i just wanted to verify that my particular build (i know there are herm100, 200 and 300 now) would fit the bill.
few more quick q's...
if i ever wish to, can this phone be put back to factory settings and be completely untraceable, or am i making permanent changes to the spl?
also as far as i am aware, overclocking is not available (hopefully i can use the word 'yet' here ) for my device is this correct?
lastly- without outlook (on my computer), is there any way to back up my contacts. not just the sim card, i mean email addresses and everything? i am sure there are some encrypted files somewhere on the device that i can just manually copy and paste when i am done.
and after that, ill be flashing it all over and post the results.. and thanks both of you for the quick responses!!! i will do the unlocker first, thanks for deterring me from that hiccup

OK.....i will answer these qs but you do need to read the wiki so you DEFINATLY understand the different aspects of the hermes...
The device can be downgraded to normal (like factory settings)....see the guides in my sig for more info.
Overclocking....dont even bother...the restriction is in the ROM....later ROMs use the cpu much better.
If you want to backup contacts etc...either use PIMBackup (search this forum for it) or get an exchange account which will sync contacts/emails/tasks etc..
the IPL is still 1.01, can this be upgraded or does it not make a difference?
ok i am trying to run Hard-SPL-V7...
when i run the file 'RUUWrapper' on my mobile device i get this message:
"File or assembly nme 'System, Version 2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=B77A5C561934E089,' or one of its dependancies, was not found."
I just installed microsoft.net framework 2.0
from what the previous screens told me, the SIM and CID unlock was successful and my current IPL is 1.4 from using the programs in 'HTC_Hermes_SIM_CID_Unlock_v3a.rar'
please help!!!!!
**edit**
Sorry, that is when i try to run it from the phone itself. when i run it on the computer it says 'The application failed to initialize properly (0xc0000135). Click on OK to terminate the application.

You need to install ALL the latest .net framework packages from Microsoft on your PC, the file is meant to run on your pc NOT your hermes.
you guys are the best and so is this site!!!
last question...
i downloaded the 'vp3G's WM6 v2.0' ROM and added the patch for 'vp3G_v2.0_StreamingMedia_PATCH.cab ' but i still cannot watch videos on youtube or any site of the likes? the page gives me an error saying 'Hello, you either have Javascript turned off or an old version of Macromedia's Flash Player. Get the latest Flash player.'
i cannot find java or macromedia that works on windows mobile... what can i use??? i am finding some stuff on javaME but nothing i can comprehend or download...
lol, when I tried to do the Unlocker first it temp-bricked my phone.. I had to reflash old rom, then run hardspl then the unlocker in that order.
Use google and search for 'Flash Player for Pocket PC'
it will give you the link to Adobe Flash Player
Hey guys,
I have a HD2 with the following stats:
WM: 6.5
Manilla: 2.5.19211619.0
ROM: 1.66.405.2
Radio: 2.06.51.07
My phone works perfectly. Out of nowhere, without having installed any new apps, without a soft reset, nothing at all.
When I click on any quicklink, or any app under the start menu, I get the following error:
"The file ?????? cannot be opened. Either it is not signed with a trusted certificate, or one of it's components cannot be found. If the problem persists try reinstalling or restorig the file"
??????? = the app or program I am trying to run.
This stops sense from loading. Only WM6.5 will run - without HTC sense.
I get this error for no reason. I have not installed any new software, I have not done a soft reset, nothing. Was using the phone all day and it was perfect. Then bang, I got this.
It has happened before and a hardware reset fixed it.
Does anyone know what on earth is causing it? I have SKcert and Cert2015 installed as I am using some custom icons. Do you think this might be causing it?
I do not want to have to do a hard reset every could of weeks.
This is a joke. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Could be something to do with your SD card....
Have you got a link to something installed on your internal memory you can test...
I had somekind of sense failure once when I took the sd card while the phone was on and no matter what I tried I couldnt get it running....
I might be way off but Its all I can think of Im afraid.....
Re-install framework 3.5...
Had the same issue. first on a kaiser, and recently on my hd2....... what i did was reinstall the .net framework, ie first un install, then re install, and soft reset..... workd perfect.
i see this is an old post, but might come in handy any way.

I have the same problem. can not reinstall anything - "not signed" any other solutions??
Regarding sdcard - it do the same with non stock programs, which are running on internal storage, when there is no SD card inside.
It happened after unsuccessful run of android from SD card
any solutions??

I found the solution Special THANKS to JZ SmartMort
Following simple steps:
1) Download following file: http://www.internet-tools.co.uk/blog/wp-content/uploads/2008/11/sda_unlock.zip
From archive we need only SDA_ApplicationUnlock.exe
It allows Registry to be edited from PC.
Run it with working Activesync connection
2) Download Mobile Registry Editor: http://www.zipsoft.ru/catalog/mobile_registry_editor-v1_11.html
Also run with working Activesync connection
3) and modify the following keys to the values listed.
("HKLM","Security\Policies\Policies","0000101b","1 ")
("HKLM","Security\Policies\Policies","00001005","4 0")
("HKLM","Security\Policies\Policies","0000101a","1 ")
("HKLM","Security\Policies\Policies","00001001","1 ")
("HKLM","Security\Policies\Policies","00001017","2 4")
It perfectly worked with HD2, but I guess it should work with all WM devices.
FYI, here are some other useful software packages that relax the security.

Could you please explain to me what each of these policies values do, or maybe point me to the thread where I could find out?
I am able to install apps ok, but every time I install a cab, it gives me the
"This application is not from a certified/trusted source, yada yada yada"
message, and I have to choose 'yes' to confirm it and go ahead with the install, not a huge deal but it'd be nice to get around it if some of these will do it.
And when I reboot, especially from Android to WM, alot of the time I get an error from gAlarmReload.exe , even though it doesn't affect gAlarm at all, the alarms still work fine. I just wanna make the s/w security as lax as possible on my phone.
I guess I'm already app unlocked, because I can make registry changes no problem. I have installed sdkcerts and netcf3.5, and have done the reg change to ensure the phone is using 3.5 and not 2.whatever_it_is, among many other reg changes.
But I don't like to go changing reg values if I don't understand what they do, because I'm one of those set-everything-up-manually types, I don't like the backup prog's and I've done a bunch of tweaks already so a HR would kill me...
Thanks for reading my unneccessarily long post, I have Asperger's so I tend to overexplain everything to death, but I guess at least I'm thorough
Thanks, worked perfect on my wife's HD2, as she needs to run stock rom 3.14.
This saved me heaps of figuring out how to do this.
Once again,thanks to all those who try and help on this forum.
Where would be all be without such great contributions !
Thank you.

after using sec config manager...i cannot sync with outlook by USB also wifi account exhange not working any help?
set back the original registry values
i have same problem with certification. And i have done with the registry values. but after a week, my phone goes slowly than ever.
I want change my registry value to normal. if any, would you please help me to write the original values of registry? i am using HTC touch pro 2 Rod 400 from US Cellular. Thank you.
This is my first post, so apologies if this is in the wrong place or has been asked before (I have searched and found some answers, but none of these worked)
Basically, last night whenever I tried to use an application on my HTC HD2 I was getting the following error message:
"The file xxx cannot be opened. Either it is not signed with a trusted certificate, or one if its components cannot be found. If the problem persists, try reinstalling or restoring this file."
In searching for the solution, a lot of people are saying that I need to edit the reistry. (Specifiaclly HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\Policies\Policies DWord = 0000101a - Change value from 0 to 1)
I have tried downloading the recommended registry editors on the forums (Resco Explorer etc.) but am unable to install because the "program is from an unknown publisher." I click yes to get pass this initial message, like I always have done in the past, and the following is displayed:
Installation was unseccessful. The program or setting cannot be installed beacause it is not digitally signed with a trusted certificate."
I have also tried using a program recommended called CeRegistryEditor and using my PC via ActiveSync to edit the registry, but am getting an error message "Access Denied!".
Does anybody know any other way of editing the registry? Am I actually doing the right thing? Are there any security settings that I need to disable to allow CeReistryEditor to edit the registry?
This is really bugging me, I have only been without my apps for about 12 hours throughout the night but it is hard to live without them!! I REALLY don't want to perform a hard reset and will do anything to avoid this!
When I get this I just remove evertyhing to do with it on the phone and re download it (the cab file usually) and it seems to work.
thanks for your reply. I have tried this but when I try and reinstall I am getting the message: Installation was unseccessful. The program or setting cannot be installed beacause it is not digitally signed with a trusted certificate.
I think that the security settings have been changed, but I cant see how to change them with editing the registry which I am struggling to do
Can I ask what app you are trying to install? Or is it any app?
Multiple Apps that were running OK yesterday, but not today. I think it is all the apps that I have downloaded from Omarket.... Omarket isnt working either!
Hi,
Any luck on this. I m also facing similar issue after installing Android on my HD2.
I have the exact same issue after running Android from SD card. No application (non-stock ones) are working anymore. Like 3rd party certificates are being blocked or something...
For everyone with this problem, download Mobile Registry Editor and connect your phone to your PC via USB, then start the Editor and go to "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\Policies\Policies" and search for the DWord "0000101a" and change the decimal to "1", that will fix your problem. This problem happens to me if I "reboot" while in Android instead of turning the phone completely off and then back on.
Edit: Added link to download.
As a side note, I always did this to mine while running Windows Mobile, then booted Android after fixing the registry.
and when this is not possible
Hi,

Hi,
I also have the same issue after loading android from the sd-card. I have also re-installed the stock rom and the problem still persists. Im also unable to install any reg editors as keep getting the "not signed with a trusted certificate".
I read that a cooked rom may be a solution around this but I liked the set up I had and wanted to keep my original rom so any other suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks
Lee
Exactly the same problem.
Non-stock programs not working after failed boot of android from SD card, and I'm unable to change any registry entries either. Practically I'm locked out of my phone, just the basic functions working. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
if forget where I originally found this link (its on xda some place)
http://www.internet-tools.co.uk/blog/wp-content/uploads/2008/11/sda_unlock.zip
but run this first and you no longer get the access denied when using the mobile registry editor , hope it helps.
I have the same problem, just remove the program that was not working, pull out your memory card , then delete the files in the sd card except the application installer, hard reset your phone, and remember to go to SETTINGS-UPDATES&FEEDBACK-ERROR REPORTING-DISABLE ERROR REPORTING, and turn off your phone, put in the memory card and turn your phone on and install the application one by one, the application installed will work as normal, Good Luck, remember to back up your data before hard reset
