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

I also have been trying to unlock my Lobby to no avail.
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 .....

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,
i have the same issue after loading android from the sd-card.
But, i am not able to change the reg, access denied, also with ceregistry unlock tool.

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

i tried this methode but unfortunately this message pops up all time:
"phone is not unlockable"
I have been using S740 for mainly GPS and I was wondering, is there any way to edit the applications that open up at start up?
I have Garmin Mobile XT for this phone so when ever I switch on my phone, I want this application to startup immediately.
I have searched google on how to but it couldn't help me. All I know is that I will have to play a bit with the registry in order to do that. I have Resco explorer with me so anyone can help me out?
Thanks
Application to edit startup : http://www.fewbits.com/startmgr/
You can just use any kind of file explorer and add Garmin's shortcut at the "startup" folder ( \Windows\StartUp )....
The best file explorer I can suggest you is "TotalCommander" : http://www.ghisler.com/smartphone.htm
Good luck
Thanks for the reply, sasiskas. I will try this out tomorrow and post how it performs
Great software, Startup Manager works great. I could add my program easily. Thanks again. But I am facing one problem. The SMS/MMS Window pops up after I switch on my phone. How do I remove that? And also I don't use a sim card for this phone so I also get a notification for SIM Failure at start-up. How do I remove that too?
"tmail.exe" is responsible for your sms/mms window...Try to find it using the program I told you...check everywere(when in the program press "menu"-startup/services/user notification)
As for the sim Failure I don't know...probably you will find it if you look in "menu-user notifications" in the program.
If you can't find anything there...then try downloading SKTools and go to "maintenance-windows startup"
Thanks again, sasiskas. But my ActiveSync says now failed to connect. Due to this I'm unable to install SKTools

what did you edit?
If you go to communication manager-connection there is an option that allows your device to work as a flash drive..do that and then move the sktools.cab file to your device and then from the device execute it.
Yeap thats right! I confirm that it works just fine..In Cyprus is not Official yet but we can make it work here and of course on any country thanks to the guy who made it!
here's how it goes:
First download and install the free Zune software from Microsoft.
Having done that, click on the Start button or orb and in the search box type regedit and hit Enter. This will open the Registry Editor.
Navigate to the following key:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Zune\Features
Here double-click on Marketplace – you will see the codes of the following countries:
AT,AU,BE,CA,CH,DE,ES,FR,GB,IE,IT,MX,NL,NZ,SG,US
You will see the same value data for Apps and SignInAvailable too.
Now one after the other, in each of these three – Marketplace, Apps, SignInAvailable, modify the value data, by adding your Country code.
I just write CY (Cyprus)
It should now look like this:
AT,AU,BE,CA,CH,DE,ES,FR,GB,IE,IT,MX,NL,NZ,SG,US,CY
Exit regedit.
NOW connect your Windows Phone to your Windows Computer.
Your Zune software will automatically start and you will be alerted with a following message:
FEATURES HAVE CHANGED!
Click OK.
You will see the Marketplace tab too now, in your Zune software.
Here not only can you download Free apps, you can also BUY the Paid apps, legally!
Select the App you want and click on the FREE button to install it. If its a Paid app, you can choose to Try it first or Buy it directly.
There is one hitch. The next time you connect your Windows Phone, you may not see the Marketplace option. This means that you will have to modify the registry every time you connect it. I have therefore created this registry file which I first double-click on, to add its contents to my Windows registry, and then connect my Windows Phone to my Windows 7 computer.
ALSO CHECK WP7 MARKET PLACE ENABLER:
Do note that, you may have to first run the Enabler, before, every time you connect your Windows Phone.
works like a charm!!!!

You can download free apps only, you can't buy paid apps.
Because you have to register a credit card that was issued from a country which already supported WP7
I've been into this before
Thats strange guys... I have the Features folder in the registry!
Try and add it by yourselves.. Try to sign in into Zune...let it update and then close it in order to make this tweak! If you still can not find it please create the values in regedit! Go to regedit then HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Zune\ and create a key inside Zune...Now call it Marketplace and then open it..Now on the right side just create a string value and put inside you country code... Try reopen Zune...
Have you tried the MARKET PLACE ENABLER????

I had the same problem but I did the market place enabler first but it returned a message that some features may not work. It went on run and I saw the message FEATURES HAVE CHANGED. I connected my phone but didn't see the market tab. I'm still trying.
However, I checked the Regedit and this time the features folder was there and my country already added! I didn't have to enter it.
Market place enabler will do the trick! try and download a free application and tell me if it's working!

ok, it now works. The trick/(s)? I logged off my pc and signed in as adminstrator. I run the market enabler without issues this time, connected my phone, zune lauched automatically and viola! market place tab is there for me to start exploring. I have that belief though that we will not be able to buy cos the credit card will tell the region from which you are and return errors but who in the first place thought we'd have windows 7 on this hd2? That is therefore small a problem that I know someone on xda will solve some day...thanks
Glad it worked for you also bro! You can now download free applications with no problem at all!
I haven't checked the paid apps because i never buy anything! LOL!
Good luck!

To activate features, create a new Key at HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Zune named "FeaturesOverride", then create DWORD (32-bit) values inside the key "FeaturesOverride" with the following names, "Marketplace" and "SignInAvailable" setting their value to “1” to turn them on.
I tryed ewerything and still cant go to market place. It keeps saying
``marketplace is not available in your country/region.``
if someone can help me i appreciate

i did everything, but when i try to download an free up, it forces me to sign in, but i don't have a zune account and nor can i create one in greece i use my hotmail and a blank terms and conditions page appears. no matter what i press, i get the same error: can't submit your acceptance....blah blah blah check your internet connection. oh, and when i try to create an account directly from the program after i enter all the info, it will simply get stuck at the final 'signing in' part. if i click finish, it'll be as if nothing happened!!

Man i will give you a simple solution! If in Greece you can't get Market place to work and you dont have an account just listen to this!
Register on Zune and make a new account...Write your hotmail and on postal code just go to Google and write "USA Postal codes"... Copy a postal code from there and paste it in Zune and you will have a US account ready to sign in! I use the Market place just fine!
here you are...postal codes:

So, I got a Zte Avid Plus z828 (t mobile no sim card) that has frp so basically i cant get pass the google account verification screen. I have found a way to get into the settings and enable developer mode without no otg method or apk methods. I simply used the text to speech method where i open the source for that and then open up google and search settings allowing me to access the settings and enable developer mode via build version.
Now here's the problem I can click backup and reset but when i actually click RESET PHONE nothing happens. I can keep on clicking it and nothing will happen it's a button thats just there. I want to enable USB debugging with hopes of using adb shell and wiping the phone that way but i can't even access the developer settings. I click on the developer settings and nothing happens its the same situation with the RESET PHONE option. Why is this occurring? Anyone have any advice as to how i can get around this? I've tried downloading apks that would open the developer settings but it opens for less then a second then instantly closes. I'm new here so i'm not even sure if this is where i was supposed to even post this, sorry if it wasn't the correct place to post this. if you need me to elaborate anymore just ask, i'll gladly do it.
Hello Friend!! I also have the same problem with this phone. but I have not been able to enter the menu. as you could enter the menu of the z828? Thank you

Yeah I'll make a short guide I can try to post screenshots later but for now i'll try my best to guide you to the point where I am.
1. Go through the setup until you get to the google verifying part.
2. Open up your keyboard and hold down the comma to access the gear which will allow you to get into the google keyboard settings.
3. Once you're at the google keyboard settings go to Text Correction.
4. Then go to Personal Dictionary and select English (US) or whatever you have there.
5. Then click on the search button and just type random letters and hit search is what i did to get to this next step.
6.. You should be able to type in the letter "g" and you should see something called google voice typing
7. click that and go to Text-to-speech.
8. Then click the blue gear next to google text to speech
9. click install voice data
10. you should see 3 dots on the top right hand corner open that and click open source licenses
11. once you're at this part just simply hold a line down as if you were going to copy it.
12. you should see about 4 options on what you want to do with that line like copy or share it search it on the web.
13. what you want to do is click search, its the fourth option.
14. delete whatever is on the search and type in settings the option to access the settings should pop up on the bottom as a suggestion.
15. click that and now you're at the settings.
From here on i assume you know how to access the about phone and turn on developer settings but this is the problem you can turn it on but you cant access the developer menu you can just click it and nothing will happen. same for trying to reset the phone from the back up and reset menu.
if anybody knows what the case may be please let me know i'm constantly trying to find the solution to this whenever i have the free time but so far no solution has came up. i am able to download apks by instead of typing in settings on the google search i type in file manager and simply transfer over the apk through my pc onto the phone. that i can do without usb debugging becasue my pc picks the phone up as a portable device.
I fixed the zte avid plus z828 frp problem!
Dont mean to double post but after a week of trial and error I solved the problem. I bypassed the FRP and Hard resetted the phone. Phone's working 100% now. I can probably post a guide somewhere I guess if highly requested.
Feel free to close the thread as the problem is solved

please do!!!!

Hello yerhope!
from your last report on zte z828 frp bypass, i understood that you finally fix the , not able to access the Developer option nor access the factory reset. I am very keen to know how you did it.
I am a victim of this same circumstance.
guide please?
cant click reset my self
Hey, I would like to highly request the tutorial....
Furthermore, I'd like to say I've poured over these sort of sites, rephrased my questions, etcetc all trying to get the same things accomplished, getting past the google password, and yet you with your quick clearly stated actually step by step explanation were the one to get me the farthest in fixing this problem. :highfive:
Are we even sure he did indeed get in? He hasn't been back to post instructions on how to get further. I am having the same issue, and have been trying every way possible. If I get in, I will make sure I post how.

He said he resolved problem but put no feedback so others can benefit, I really doubt he resolved the problem of bypassing or unlocking or rooting his phone, he probably slammed it on the floor and resolved the problem that way. We don't need people like that here. I will try it when I get a zte z828 from someone that has the same problem, I will post feedback if I am successful or not, so by July 15, 2016, I should now if it is possible.

He did get in. I did get in myself but when i tap factory reset nothing happen.
(Security patched)
Maybe he did resolve it like i did.
Root and remove it with gcpro
Thats what i did.
On some ZTE phones (has worked on 1 but not another for me), you can use the emergency dialer to dial:
*983*987#
This will lead you directly into factory reset options (if it works).
Solution worked on Acer Iconia B1-850 Tablet

Yeah I'll make a short guide I can try to post screenshots later but for now i'll try my best to guide you to the point where I am.
1. Go through the setup until you get to the google verifying part.
2. Open up your keyboard and hold down the comma to access the gear which will allow you to get into the google keyboard settings.
3. Once you're at the google keyboard settings go to Text Correction.
4. Then go to Personal Dictionary and select English (US) or whatever you have there.
5. Then click on the search button and just type random letters and hit search is what i did to get to this next step.
6.. You should be able to type in the letter "g" and you should see something called google voice typing
7. click that and go to Text-to-speech.
8. Then click the blue gear next to google text to speech
9. click install voice data
10. you should see 3 dots on the top right hand corner open that and click open source licenses
11. once you're at this part just simply hold a line down as if you were going to copy it.
12. you should see about 4 options on what you want to do with that line like copy or share it search it on the web.

So, I got a Zte Avid Plus z828 (t mobile no sim card) that has frp so basically i cant get pass the google account verification screen. I have found a way to get into the settings and enable developer mode without no otg method or apk methods. I simply used the text to speech method where i open the source for that and then open up google and search settings allowing me to access the settings and enable developer mode via build version.
Now here's the problem I can click backup and reset but when i actually click RESET PHONE nothing happens. I can keep on clicking it and nothing will happen it's a button thats just there. I want to enable USB debugging with hopes of using adb shell and wiping the phone that way but i can't even access the developer settings. I click on the developer settings and nothing happens its the same situation with the RESET PHONE option. Why is this occurring? Anyone have any advice as to how i can get around this? I've tried downloading apks that would open the developer settings but it opens for less then a second then instantly closes. I'm new here so i'm not even sure if this is where i was supposed to even post this, sorry if it wasn't the correct place to post this. if you need me to elaborate anymore just ask, i'll gladly do it.

Okay, I spent more time than i care to admit on getting through this frp. I have z3x and a few other utilities and i use them when i can, but i don't honestly lay hands on ZTE very often. Anyway, you do NOT need GC or any other box--
so following the last poster's steps (credit to yerhope):
9. click install voice data
10. you should see 3 dots on the top right hand corner open that and click open source licenses
11. once you're at this part just simply hold a line down as if you were going to copy it.
12. you should see about 4 options on what you want to do with that line like copy or share it search it on the web.
13. what you want to do is click search, its the fourth option.
this is where he leaves off... and where i pick up.
14. Download "quickshortcut maker" apk to your computer (or copy from apk extractor on a phone or any other method..
15. Select z828 in my computer and copy quickshortcut maker to downloads
16. On the phone, after clicking the search button, clear the browser box and type in "file manager" - it will show up just below. select it
17. Go to downloads in the file manager and select quickshortcut maker
18. install the app, blah blah blah
19. Once in the app, search "google account" you will have several pop up
20. Select the one that says "email and password" when you do, it will ask for a password to an account you aren't sure of.
21. click menu on top right - Browser sign in is the option - click it
22. Sign in to your email and account
23. Once you are signed in, press and hold power for a soft reset (restart)
24. Proceed as usual to wifi page and BOOM!
25. Profit. not much though, cuz its still a ZTE.

Does this mean you have confirmed this on ZTE?
Yerhopes solution worked for my zte lever
Follow yerhopes solution after step 15 while in settings go to backup and reset make sure back up data is off then factory reset erase Everything phone will reboot old owners info gone no need to download anything worked for 2 Zte levers i bought from ebay.
Bought a EE Jay Tablet (also a ZTE tablet) that had FRP enabled, easiest way I could do it was
1. connect to wifi, get to the previous account required screen.
2. open the keyboard and hold the @ symbol and open the keyboard settings.
3. top right corner press the 3 dots and choose help and type in apps in the search box.
4. access the app settings screen via the link from the help section then goto all and launch settings app
5. enable unknown sources in security and return to app settings screen and launch chrome this time or any browser.
6. goto http://rootjunkysdl.com/files/?dir=Apps and download this file com.sika524.android.quickshortcut.apk
7. you may get a download notification that the file has finished if not go back again to the app settings screen and all again and launch downloads app
8. you will now see the file download open it and install and then open the app
9. in the quick shortcut app search for google account and choose email and password and select try
10. now the google accounts manager has launched, in the top right corner press the 3 dots and choose browser sign-in
11. sign in with a google account and once done it will close and go back to the quick shortcut maker.
12. you still won't have access yet but all I done was reboot the device and continued the setup, this time there was no errors or required sign in and had full access.
Hope this helps someone, this was basically a copy of this video which may be helpful https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GKdVvBSIb0M

I used this method, personally, for zte Avid I believe. Yerhope's solution works for some firmwares prior to firmware i was on. i'm sorry, i do not recall that at this moment as it was some time ago. if Yerhope's solution is not effective for you, then progresss to my steps that pick up right where previous solution left off. so once again, YES, this worked on my device, did not test for others. my understanding is kingo can acquire root access in a special way as well that will allow you to adb clear frp. looking for commands? i do not have them sorry.
