I have been unable to follow the steps to unlock my HD2 as I have Windows XP and the Windows Phone 7 Dev tools only work on Windows Vista or 7. Does anyone know a way to accomplish the unlocking so I can start downloading apps?
I think it would be better to upgrade to vista 32bit if you can. Or do it in the internet shops? Only problem is the time it takes to download the windows tools. The others can go on usb stick.

I'm using windows 7 and wanted to change ROM, i was wondering if the .net 3.5 thats recommended and needed for the HSPLWrapper_Blackstone_156OliNex has any complications or if indeed is need at all?
can't comment on the tool you talk about
but win7 is the first windows that comes
with .net 3.5 installed from the start
I tried to flash my mobile from a Vista PC and I got problems with it.
So I went into the basement and used my old XP Computer.
And it worked flawlessly
Maybe Windows 7 works better, but I don't think so. Just try it and install .NET 3.5 and start RUU.
If it doesn't work, you got to look for a XP Computer

Maybe you had to install the cracked drivers (youwe got 64 and 32bit version), sometimes you need to disable the USB connection under WMdevice Center, put the device in bootloader and then run RUU update.
Argh sorry, totally forgot to mention that.
But I had tried (nearly) everything:
Flashing without changes in Vista (just WMDC installed)
disabled/enabled "allow USB connections"
normal/cracked drivers
...
So if somebody know what's wrong, please tell me ^^
If your using USPL you will need to update the HTC USB drivers as it will not detect the device, if you have flashed the hard SLP then you needed worry, it works fine, even in Windows 7, 32 and 64 bit
HSPL didn't work with my 32bit Vista, even not after updating the drivers
But that's Windows: Sometimes it works, most time it doesn't
Put HSPL from friends PC and than @ home just do upgrades via SD card
Thanks guys, some good info there, i'm liking windows 7 at the moment so will keep tryin to find a way to the HSPL, tried that friends option NikPraskaton but he has windows XP and is not detecting the phone anymore
Ive tried searching now for about 2 hours for a fix.
Ive just installed windows 7 x64 pro and i can not get it to work with my HD. It will not recognize it at all. Ive had various problems, always seems different.
Ive tried turning off the enable fast data. This changed the problem, but didnt fix it.
At the moment, i have that enabled and the problem from what i can tell is, in device manager Microsoft Windows Remote Adapter is not working.
If i disable fast data, i get a connecting to host message on my HD screen and nothing else really happens.
Ive tried updating the USB drivers, but that will not work, something to do with unsigned drivers.
Under mobile devices in device manager i get PocketPC USB Sync instead of the HTC usb Sync thing.
Is there a solution for this please?
With me it worked on windows 7x64 straight out of the box. I suggest re-installing win 7.
I'd have to agree, using Windows x64 Professional here and both my Touch HD and my partners work fine (I had to allow Windows to download an updated version of Windows Mobile Device Center first though).
I do not suggest reinstalling Win 7. Geez. Sorry, but that's using an axe to trim a toenail.
Try downloading and reinstall the x64 version of Windows Mobile Device Center. Make sure you get version 6.1. Do not download any driver updates meant for Vista - you don't need them. But this main file will be marked Vista - it includes you too.
Next, it's possible that when you first plugged in the blackstone, a driver install got canceled or didn't happen right. Use your hardware manager and look for any new generic devices or HID devices. You can try deleting the hardware from the list and asking device manager to look again.
MAKE SURE YOU CLOSE WINDOWS MEDIA CENTER.
Good luck.
Installed windows 7 last week.... i mainly use this pc at home and at work i use XP.
Anyway just connected it now to my notebook and after some driver downloads from windows the phone works fine...
make sure u download the latest mobile device center.
I had the same with my Topaz and windows 7. The fix was to disable the windows firewall while syncing.
This solved my sync problems with Windows 7 ultimate x64
Open notepad
write the text : net localgroup Administrators LocalService /add
save the file as e.g. HTC.bat somewhere on your hard drive where you can find it
Locate with Windows Explorer the .Bat file you just edited
Rightclick on the bat fil
select "run as administrator"
restart your computer. Your HTCH Touch HD should connect without problems
I just want to know, I have little to no access to a Win 7 computer, only a windows xp machine, is it possible for me to unlock my HD2 with WP7 on windows XP?
Im not new when it comes to unlocking, rooting, jailbreaking, w/e you want to call it with different devices, but this has me completely stumped. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Try following this thread:

However, I don't know if this counts for XP but for Vista and Win 7 you have to run ChevronWP7 Unlocker "As Administrator."

Even if Chevron starts in XP SP3, it will not work on unlocking your phone, you need Vista or W7 for it (and still it is a pain in the butt)...
I could not unlock my phone with chevon in XP SP3 (tried for several hours to figure out a solution). Switched to windows 7 and chevon unlocked my phone with no problems. +1 to switch to vista or windows 7 pc for unlocking your phone.

I have recently formatted my laptop and re-installed everything from scratch. I now am unable to install xap files to my phone. every error i get seems to be something related to the connection or not detecting the phone. I have tried Toms xap installer and winco wxap assistant and neither work. I have zune 4.8 installed, as well as the windows phone 7 sdk and the windows phone 7 developer tools. I have the HTC HD2 running xboxmod/yuki mango rom, which has been updated to wp7.1. zune detects the phone and i am able to sync through zune, so i know that the device is installed and working correctly. I am thinking there may be an error in my install of either the wp7 sdk or the wp7 dev tools, but i am not sure how to check this.
The laptop has been updated from 2gb ram to 4gb, so i now have windows 7 professional 64 bit (i did have windows 7 pro 32bit before). hopefully one of the good people on xda will know how to fix this problem!
Hi, I can't sync my Omnia 7 with my new Windows 8 laptop.
I downloaded Windows Phone app (Zune replacement), its promting me to connect my phone to see whats on it, but it can't see it. I tried installing Samsung mobile usb driver (i8700_samsung_mobile_usb_driver_v5.2__v1.2.1050.0) but it isnt working.
On my phone I got this custom ROM: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1571068
OS version: 7.10.8588.169
In Windows 8 Device Manager is my phone detected as Windows Phone USB Device, so its connected at least at some way.
Thank you for you help.
isn't the Windows 8 Device Manager only for wp8?
anyway i suggest you to try zune (you can install it on w8 NON RT, instead if you are running w8rt... i don't know)
Windows Phone app is only for WP8 and Zune IS working on Windows 8? I lived in a lie. Thank you it should solve it I think.
