HOWTO Application unlock your Windows Mobile Smartphone

Your Windows Mobile Smartphone is application locked, meaning that you can’t install unsigned applications, games or tweaks? No problem! In this little tutorial I will show you how you can application unlock your phone with a couple of simple Registry edits.

First you need a trusted Registry Editor for your Smartphone. I recommend the original “Regedit STG” from HTC. You can download it from here [3] or here [1] (please report if links are broken) or just Google for it.

After you have downloaded “Regedit STG” the application unlock process can start.

1) Simply put the *.zip file with the regeditSTG.exe in it with ActiveSync into a folder on your phone (but not onto the memory card).
2) Unzip the file with the *.zip program that comes with your phone.
3) Now start regeditSTG.exe and change the following Registry Keys:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\Policies\Policies\00001001 = 2
-> Change the value data from 2 to 1

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\Policies\Policies\00001005 = 16
-> Change the value data from 16 to 40

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\Policies\Policies\00001017 = 128
-> Change the value data from 128 to 144

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \Security\Policies\Policies
-> Add new value "0000101b": Dword = 1

After you have done all these steps close Regedit STG with the task manager (TaskMan) of your phone and reboot. That’s it.
Your phone is now totally application unlocked.
