We posted earlier today on a hack to Interop Unlock the Lumia x50 series of Windows 10 Mobile handsets (Lumia 550, 650, 950 and 950 XL.) Interop Unlocking a handset gives users full control of their phone, meaning they can install any arbitrary software with full permissions, overwrite any registry entries and even run .exe software.

Now the hackers on XDA-Developers have extended the hack to include smartphones from ANY OEM, including the newest HP Elite X3.

The procedure is of course not for the faint-hearted, but if you ever wanted to set your device time-out to infinite or install that particular shade of accent colour which Microsoft did not provide you now have your solution.

Read the full instructions and find the needed packages at XDA-Developers here.
