Hi Heathcliff74,

I'm trying to install WP7 Root Tools 1.1 onto my Samsung Omina 7, but when I get to the 'Phase 2' installation I get the following error "WP7 Root Tools Fatal Error: RA-SRA-02 1260".

Can you assist in telling me what the error relates to & what I can do to fix the issue please?

Kind regards,

fitzy-boy

You probably installed Root Tools, ran phase 1 and then you didn't continue with phase 2, which is important. You now reinstalled Root Tools and ran phase 1 again. If you run phase 1 two times, you get this error. The only way to resolve it is a hard-reset. But be careful! You can loose apps and data. But you can also loose your unlock! Be sure you can unlock again after you hard-reset! Maybe better make a backup in advance!

Hi, I've got a HTC Mozart and when I try opening WP7 Root Tools it closes and lands me back on the app list (Only get to see the splash screen). My device has an app hub unlock and your interop unlock. I have 7.10.8773.98, firmware: 2250.09.12435.061 and bootloader 5.12.2250.1(134400).
Can you help?
Thanks.

It should not close that way. But unfortunately your device is not supported. The first steps of policy unlock require your device to be at version 4 or lower. Your firmware is version 5. You might be able to downgrade using Goldcard method and the flash a custom ROM.

What's up with the 4-star vote for this tool, guys? I can use some better votes for version 1.1! Please vote! Have a look at version 1.1 (some details in the opening post).

It's because there aren't many users with unlocked bootloaders to use your tool. But from what I read in changelog is great. You deserve all the stars in the world for not letting us down. Cheers.

When I open the registry workshop and root tools at the same time, and need to delete a key on registry workshop, it showes 'cannot access'. But in root tools, it crashes. It is nice to make a fix. Thx.

Read the instructions in the opening post closely. In a nutshell:
- Install WP7 Root Tools
- Install Ultrashot's WMDC Launcher
- Run WP7 Root Tools and give Root Access to the WMDC Launcher
- Run WMDC Launcher and tap on Enable
- Install Zune on PC
- Install WMDC on PC
- Connect phone to PC with USB
- Run Zune and sync phone
- Use Windows Explorer or Registry Workshop to access the phone

Also, please tell me which registry key you try to delete. Of course Root Tools shouldn't crash. If you tell me which key, I can try to reproduce the problem and fix it.

Good luck!

How do you access the phone then? I have WMDC enabled on my L800 and I run Zune and WMDC on PC but when I plug cable phone-pc, Zune is launching.
To make WMDC works (access the phone) I need wp7connector but it's not working on win7 x64 :/

Are you one of the few with an unlocked bootloader on your lumia 800? Or did you do the hardware hack to write an unlocked bootloader? And did you flash a custom rom after that?

If not, I find it hard to believe that you are even able to run WMDC Launcher or WP7 Root Tools on your phone.

WP7 Root Tools 1.2 released!

Hi again! Spamming you all with another release ;) This is WP7 Root Tools 1.2. This is a list of the changes in this version:

  • Added color values to Accent Color editor.
  • 3G toggle tweak improved.
  • Added Internet Connection Sharing unlock. If your operator has blocked Internet Sharing, WP7 Root Tools can attempt to configure Internet Sharing and bypass the barrier that is installed on the phone. This probably won't work on LG devices, because their drivers don't support Internet Sharing. This unlock is only meant to unlock the operator barrier.
  • Added Automatic Data Configuration function. This will attempt to automatically setup the configuration for your mobile operator in case your mobile internet settings are somehow screwed up.
  • Added shell-handler in Explorer for provxml-files.
  • Removed wrong buttons on Device tab.
  • Disabled cache for filesystem and searches. Caching mechanism was implemented back when old exploits were used, which were much slower. Disabling caching shows better browsing and search-results.
  • Added two languages: Serbian and Albanian. These versions can be downloaded in separate packages, because they are not officially supported by Windows Phone 7. Thanks to all people who helped with the translations!
  • Removed ads for better Root Tools experience ;)

WP7 Root Tools can be downloaded from the Download section on www.wp7roottools.com.

Have fun!

The focus s works fine

It isn't automatically interop unlocked unless you install an interopunlock already, apps must be even permission with root tools to run, this is much more sensible then giving blanket access to anything that wants higher level privileges. So load up root tools, go to policies, find your app and enable it. Note that opera needs to run native code so make sure you have the correct version installed.

thanks sir for the quick respond anyway i've done giving an access to ascent changer using wp7 root tools nothings happen same issue error again,:confused:

Which Accent changer do you try to use? Afaik all accent changers, except the one in Root Tools, have device-specific code. So those apps only run on specefic devices. That said, why do you even try an accent changer app, while Root Tools has an Accentcolor editor built-in?

Oh, and when you get an error, specify all details. I cannot guess errors and solutions.

    NEW: WP7 Root Tools 1.2 is released! It includes an Accent Color editor and Internet Sharing unlock now.

    WP7 Root Tools

    With this tool you get root-access to your WP7 device. The current version contains the Policy Unlock Installer, a registry-editor, a file-explorer with many file-operations, certificate-stores, a policy-editor, a tweaks-section and an Accent color editor. This is your all-in-one system-tool for Windows Phone 7.

    If you like this app, you can donate to buy me a beer (or two).

    With WP7 Root Tools I attempt to open up the system in a gentle way, so that users stay in control of their device, while homebrew apps can get more control to get the maximum power out of your Windows Phone device!

    Supported Devices

    • Samsung first and second generation devices with Interop Unlock
    • LG devices
    • HTC first generation devices with Mango v1 drivers (SPL 4.x or lower)
    • Samsung first generation devices with custom ROM and Full Unlock
    • HTC first and second generation devices with custom ROM and Full Unlock
    • NOKIA devices with custom ROM and Full Unlock

    Your phone needs to have at least INTEROP-UNLOCK. If you get error 0x81030120 when you deploy WP7 Root Tools to your device, then please read this guide! WP7 Root Tools will also work on devices with Full Unlock. If you want to know more about the different types of unlocks or if you want to know why WP7 Root Tools may or may not run on your WP7 device, you should read this guide.

    License Agreement

    WP7 Root Tools and WP7 Root Tools SDK are Copyright by Heathcliff74 / www.wp7roottools.com in 2012 - 2013

    This license governs use of the "WP7 Root Tools" software. If you use the software, you accept this license. If you do not accept the license, do not use the software.

    Don't be stupid, make a backup!!

    This tool is still in alpha stage. That means not yet properly tested. This tool also provides you with high privileges with which you can alter low level settings and data on this device. All this may result in unexpected and undesired behavior, which may ultimately damage your device. Use this tool with care and use it at your own risk. The developer of this tool cannot be hold responsible for any kind of damages, caused directly or indirectly by using this tool.

    You can find backup-programs here on XDA. For example WP7 Easy Backup Tool by MarcHoover or WP7 Backup App by hx4700 Killer.

    Installation

    On devices with custom ROM and Full Unlock, the installation of WP7 Root Tools will be pretty straight-forward. You install the XAP and it works. On devices with stock ROM's WP7 Root Tools need to install Root Access. The first time it runs, a 2-phase-installation will start. The app will inform you to start the first install-phase. Then the device will reboot after a few seconds. After the reboot you need to start WP7 Root Tools again immediately! Then the second phase of the installation will start and your device will be rebooted again. After the second reboot you are ready to use WP7 Root Tools.

    Update to a new version

    If you have an earlier version of WP7 Root Tools installed and you have WP7 Root Tools Policy Unlock, I strongly advise to UPDATE the app, instead of doing a full install-cycle. Many XAP installers will do a full install-cycle. That can lead to problems, because during the installation WP7 Root Tools will temporary loose its Root Access. In that case WP7 Root Tools needs to do the 2-phase-installation again. This is usually not a problem, but future OEM- or OS-updates could make it possible that the reinstall will not be possible. So, to be on the safe side, first make a backup of the device (use a backup tool from the XDA forums) and then use a XAP installer that has the possibility to update an app. One such utility is XAPDeployX 0.9.

    Registry Editor

    The registry editor in WP7 Root Tools allows full Root Access to the registry. Be very careful with your tweaks, because this may profoundly influence the behavior of your device.

    To delete a registrykey or -value you can tap-and-hold the item and choose delete in the context-menu.

    The new version also has Advanced Search functionality.

    File Explorer

    Search_small.png


    The file-explorer supports all file- and folder-operations, like copying, moving, renaming and deleting files and folders. To select multiple files at once, you can tap an item on the left, which will pop up selection-boxes.

    When you select files and folders with the selection-boxes, the file-operations can be chosen from the Applicationbar. It is also possible to tap-and-hold an item and choose the file-operation from the context-menu.

    You can tap on an item to launch or open it. It might be necessary to give the app that needs to open the file root-privileges first. The new version of WP7 Root Tools allows you to give Root Access to System Apps like Office Mobile. So if you've given Root Access to Word, you can tap txt-files in any location to open them with Word. The new version will also allow you to give Root Access to Homebrew Native executables. The file-explorer shows whether an executable is "Installed" or "Not installed". If you tap (or tap-and-hold) on an executable that is not yet installed, you can choose to unlock the executable, give Root Access and launch it.

    The new version also has Advanced Search functionality.

    Certificate Installer

    You might wonder why I created a certificate installer, because it is already possible to add certificates. When you email a certificate to yourself and tap that attachment, WP7 will install it. But if you install like this, the certificate will always be installed in the "Root" certificate store. With my certificate installer you can also install in "CA", "My" and "Code Integrity" stores. This may be very useful for hacking attempts. You can install a certificate by browsing to the ".cer" file and tap it. The possibilities for getting a certificate file on your phone will follow below. If you start installing certificates on your phone you should consider making backups in advance. I once experienced Zune going totally bezerk after installing certs. Zune took 100% and lost connection with the phone all the time. Everything was back to normal when I deleted the certs. In this version there is no view on the certificate stores available yet. In a future version you will be able to view the contents of all the certificate store and also uninstall certificates from there.

    Certificate Store

    You can browse the 4 certificate stores. Tap-and-hold will show a context-menu. You can delete certificates or save them as a .cer file. Be aware that if you delete a certificate you can do severe damage to the system. So, be careful with that!

    Policy Editor

    Policies_small.png


    The Policy Editor will show a list of all the installed apps. You can use the Policy Editor to give other homebrew app a "trusted" status. With this you will give the app Root Access privileges. So be very careful to which app you give Root Access!! You are responsible for giving access to an app! If you are not sure, read the forums to decide if an app is trust-worthy. The new version will also show System Apps. This is done because for devices that make use of Policy Unlock, it is useful to give Root Access to System apps sometimes. For example to open txt-files outside the My Documents folder.

    It is also possible to launch apps from this list, by tapping on the app. But some apps will fail to start from here, because their default task is not configured correctly. This is not an issue in WP7 Root Tools, but those apps were simply not designed to be launched like this. They are listed anyway, because it could be useful to give Root Access to these apps.

    Policy Unlock v2 also allows xap-packages with special configs to automatically give unlock Native Homebrew executables when the app is given Root Access. Read more in the "For developers" and "Desktop Sync" sections.

    I've been working on unlocking Native Executables for a really long time now. Ever since I started this thread on XDA. I know it has been possible to run native executable using Full Unlock. But Full Unlock is only possible on WP7 devices with unlocked bootloaders. With the introduction of WP7 Root Tools Policy Unlock v2 also devices which have only Interop Unlock can now run these programs! But that was not the only goal. This unlock has become a prestige-project for me. Because I wanted to fully understand and control the WP7 Policy Engine. I now finally succeeded in doing this :)

    So, is Policy Unlock v2 the same as Full Unlock?? No. But almost! Unfortunately, Policy Unlock still doesn't allow you to run Homebrew drivers, like the DFT Bluetooth stack. Later on I will try to apply the Policy Unlock hacks on the drivers too.

    Tweaks

    WP7 Root Tools adds a few Search-providers for Internet Explorer. You can choose it here. There are some more tweaks to customize your devices. From WP7 Root Tools 1.2 on, there are tweaks for unlocking Internet Sharing and for running Automatic Data Configuration. If your operator has blocked Internet Sharing, WP7 Root Tools can attempt to configure Internet Sharing and bypass the barrier that is installed on the phone. This probably won't work on LG devices, because their drivers don't support Internet Sharing. This unlock is only meant to unlock the operator barrier. Running Automatic Data Configuration can be useful when you switched 3G network and your phone has wrong settings for the data connection or the settings have become otherwise defective. If you have more ideas to add to this page, leave me a note.

    Accent Color Editor

    Accent-Small.png


    Add your own accent colors and select colors in real-time. Fully compatible with WP7.8.

    Multi-language

    The current version supports 18 languages: English, Dutch, Russian, German, Portuguese, Chinese, Hungarian, Czech, Spanish, Slovak, Polish, Italian, Greek, French. And these languages are available in separate downloads: Turkish, Arabic, Albanian and Serbian. The translations are done by volunteers and some elements by translation-engines. So the translations may not be perfect. Following versions will improve and add more translations.

    For developers

    I also created an SDK for developers, who can use to profit from Root Access. It provides a way to gain access to the filesystem and the registry (and more) from their managed Silverlight application. No need to worry about COM interop and C++ anymore! The package contains a read-me with short instructions. More details and examples will follow soon here on this site!

    The new WP7 Root Tools has Policy Unlock v2 to unlock Homebrew Native Executables. You can do that using the WP7 Root Tools Explorer. But if a developers want to use such binaries in an app, it would be very user-unfriendly if the user needed to unlock these binaries manually. For this purpose I added functionality in the WP7 Root Tools Policy Editor. When an app is give Root Access, it will scan the app for a file called RootAccess.xml. If present, the xml is parsed and the binaries that are listed will automatically be given Root Access too. This is the format for RootAccess.xml:

    Code: 
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<RootAccess>
	<Executable File="Native\NativeApp.exe" />
	<Executable File="Native\NativeWinApp.exe" >
		<Destination Path="\Windows\NativeWinApp.exe" />
	</Executable>
	<Library File="Native\NativeLib.dll" />
	<Library File="Native\NativeWinLib.dll" >
		<Destination Path="\Windows\NativeWinLib.dll" />
	</Library>
</RootAccesss>

    Take these notes into account:

    • The Destination paths are optional
    • Libraries are signed in Source and Destination
    • Executables are signed in Source and Destination
    • Executable gets policies in Source and Destination
    • File-path-attribute-value is relative to app path
    • Destination path is absolute

    The first app that makes use of this feature is Ultrashot's WMDC Launcher, which can be used for Desktop Sync, as described in the next section. Ultrashot will soon make Opera Mini compatible with Policy Unlock too.

    Desktop Sync

    Ultrashot has released WMDC Launcher some time ago. Back then it was only possible to use that on devices with Full Unlock. With the introduction of Policy Unlock v2, it is also possible to run the app on devices that are compatible with WP7 Root Tools. Ultrashot has added RootAccess.xml to the xap-package, so the app will automatically be configured when it is given Root Access. Warning: it may take a while to apply on all unlocks, so be patient and let WP7 Root Tools do its job.

    After WMDC Launcher is installed, given Root Access and lauched, you can use it to sync file-system and registry with your PC. On the PC you need to have Zune installed and running, and you need to have Windows Mobile Device Center installed and running. After that you Windows Phone will show up as Mobile Device in Windows Explorer.

    For unrestricted remote Registry editing you can use Registry Workshop, or similar. In the registry editor you have to connect to the Mobile Device.

    WP7 Root Tools 1.0 Released!

    Hello hackers! Let me start with wishing everybody a peaceful and healthy New Year! It's a bit late, but I didn't have a chance to do it earlier. I started the new year with my new job. Very impressive and a lot of things to learn. It's a totally new challenge and I'm excited to work for my new employer. It's not anything related to mobile development, in case you wonder.

    Explorer_New_Small.png


    For this new year I created a new version of WP7 Root Tools too. I've done a lot of testing and I got a lot of help from other people. It seems WP7 Root Tools is very stable now and I fixed the last known problems. I also fixed the problem with Samsung devices that showed error RA-ARA-01 in the installer. I thought I fixed it in the previous version, but still a lot of users complained they had this problem. I didn't have the problem on my own Samsung. So I got some help from Dennis Wilson. He did have a Samsung device that which had issues with the WP7 Root Tools root-access-installer. We used USB over Network from FabulaTech. An excellent piece of software. We set up a transatlantic remote-debugging-session. And I debugged WP7 Root Tools from my home in The Netherlands on his Samsung device in Phoenix - Arizona, about 8000 km away. How cool is that!?

    I also did some User Interface improvements, as you can see in the screenshot.

    I'm still working on other developments. But since this version is really stable now, and I fixed the Samsung installer-issue, I wanted to release this. But I plan to release more new features soon.

    Download WP7 Root Tools 1.0 here: www.wp7roottools.com/

    Happy hacking in 2013!

    WP7 Root Tools 0.13 beta is released!

    Download: www.wp7roottools.com

    I uploaded WP7 Root Tools 0.13 beta. This version is the first version of WP7 Root Tools that has the beta-tag. I fixed a lot of big and small bugs and I implemented some performance-improvements. So, I hope this version will work stable for everyone. Most important fixes:

    • After install of version 0.12 alpha, some apps wouldn't start anymore - FIXED
    • Root Access installed would report error RA-ARA-01 55 on some devices. Not been able to test this, but i think it is now FIXED
    • Shell handler would not launch correctly sometimes - FIXED
    • Improved Russian, Czech and French translations
    • Name of search provider was not correctly shown sometimes - FIXED
    • Crash when current location of registry or explorer was deleted - FIXED
    • much more...

    WP7 Root Tools 1.2 released!

    Hi again! Spamming you all with another release ;) This is WP7 Root Tools 1.2. This is a list of the changes in this version:

    • Added color values to Accent Color editor.
    • 3G toggle tweak improved.
    • Added Internet Connection Sharing unlock. If your operator has blocked Internet Sharing, WP7 Root Tools can attempt to configure Internet Sharing and bypass the barrier that is installed on the phone. This probably won't work on LG devices, because their drivers don't support Internet Sharing. This unlock is only meant to unlock the operator barrier.
    • Added Automatic Data Configuration function. This will attempt to automatically setup the configuration for your mobile operator in case your mobile internet settings are somehow screwed up.
    • Added shell-handler in Explorer for provxml-files.
    • Removed wrong buttons on Device tab.
    • Disabled cache for filesystem and searches. Caching mechanism was implemented back when old exploits were used, which were much slower. Disabling caching shows better browsing and search-results.
    • Added two languages: Serbian and Albanian. These versions can be downloaded in separate packages, because they are not officially supported by Windows Phone 7. Thanks to all people who helped with the translations!
    • Removed ads for better Root Tools experience ;)

    WP7 Root Tools can be downloaded from the Download section on www.wp7roottools.com.

    Have fun!
