Are you running Windows 7, have you installed the SDK, have you installed Zune and have you followed this guide to the letter?

Do all of that and you should have a working phone that is unlocked.
1. Install WP7 sdk Windows Phone Developer Tools; done
2. Install zune;done
3. Make partneship with zune and phone;done
4. Attach the ChevronWP7.cer(you found in the toolkit) to your email and send the email to your email itself (On PC);done
5. Login to your email account (On Phone), Open the email, Select attachment and install the cert;done
6. Connect your phone to pc and make sure zune is running in background;done
7. Run the unlocker (ChevronWP7.exe) and click unlock button(Make sure your phone date is set correctly)done
(you need to close skype and disable network adapter.. hamachi.. wireless.. Dropbox.. etc)done
still locked
Are you doing a full hard reset and then reinstalling the certificate? It should work after the PortalUrlProd and PortalUrlInt values get returned to the default.
yes I have done by pushing + and - volume button
solution
the default year in WP7 is 2010 it took me a while to realize i was forcing the phone due to the date.
small thing easy to overlook hope it helps
edit: with the correct date phone should unlock

On #5 did you use touchXplorer to copy that file to Windows directory?
Remember Zune will lock you HD2 everytime you connect your usb. use the crack in this forum to prevent that.
are you using windows XP?
Also try putting chevronwp7.exe in the root of your c: drive and run as administrator. I've seen people say that it isn't necessary, but I had to.
Also if you're using vista or windows 7 make sure UAC is disabled.
besides turning off the firewall, i turned off the windows defender service.
It might do the trick.
Solved
Thanks to everybody
My problem is solved.
Like audit angel was saying the default year is 2010, and the solution was there for me.
When I changed the year to 2011 Chevronwp7 did his job.
What an idiot I was!!!

After following the normal guides, this is what I have completed so far using Windows XP SP3:
1) Install Zune
2) Install the certificate file on the phone + regedit the PC
3) Connect the phone to the PC
4) Zune finds the phone and is able to connect
5) Chevron opens, I tick the two boxes, but then errors with 'I am unable to communicate...'
To resolve I have tried:
Ensuring hosts file is not read-only
Delete any entries for windowsphone in hosts file
Put phone into airplane mode
Run chevron as administrator
Disable all A/V and F/W
Disable all network adapters / wireless etc
Can anyone suggest anything else to resolve?
You DEFINATELY need to install Windows phone 7 SDK- i had the same issue, i could resolve it by installing the SDK.
But that can only be installed on windows vista/7 right? Not on XP
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=914596
excellent, thankyou kind sir. Will give it a go. Apols for not searching hard enough!
ah,
That didn't work. YOu need the developer tools installed before you can install this and that needs windows vista/7 anyway.
RIght, have finally managed to install everything. Still no working
64bit WIN 7
Is the chevron7.exe working on 64bit WIN7 or only on 32bit version?
I give up..
Have installed Zune and developer tools, spent all day on this and I'm no futher. Chevron does not work.
For me too.. Chevron doesn't work.
I have the same problem. I got it unlocked, locked it again and now i can't unlock it anymore

Hi,
Make sure you don't forget this one:
(you need to close skype and disable network adapter.. hamachi.. wireless.. etc)
windows phone sdk is the Microsoft Visual Studio Express for Windows Phone?
I finally managed to unlock!
This probably won't help the people who can't re-unlock, but the final issue at my end was that I was using a web proxy. The Zune service uses the domain defaults for proxy settings (which, for me, is set to automatic discovery). I noticed with Process Monitor that most http requests from Zune went through the Privoxy proxy on my server. (Which of course, does not know about how ChevronWP7 redirects developerservice.microsoftphone.com to the fake local service.)
After disabling the proxy and rebooting (to make sure the Zune *service* (not the app) picks up the change), ChevronWP7 worked as advertised. Note, however, that I needed to click "Unlock" twice - the first time I got the usual connection error.
I hope this helps someone!
I think that I´m going to have to give up on WP7. At least untill they come out with a better chevron. I´ve been working on this since WP7 first was announce on DFT´s website.

I´ve tried a thousand times.
I had the same problem. I closed all applications that used up the internet, including my web explorer. Then tried again and it worked fine.
I gave up.. however I then used another Windows Vista PC (instead of my windows XP SP3) and all worked fine.
For all of you trying to instal WP7 and getting stuck at the dreaded chevron unlocker "Uh-OH" that will not let you pass, look no further. There are a lots of ifs and buts but no definite answer to it. Below method worked 100%.
I tried it multiple times. I in no way encourage you to use WP7 and unlocking procedures but heres simply what you do if you want to do
Instal Zune
Connect WP7-HD2
Click on the sync relationship below the picture of your LEO70
key in any name...i used HD7
Once connected, create a zune id...You can use your windows live id though
Goto settings ---date and time and uncheck automatic date VERY IMPORTANT
sync your phone...Check if port 443 is free that means no SKYPE or anything. Instal registry key in windows
Put chevron installer on root of C
Stop any antivirus & anti spyware IMPORTANT
Run chevron with administrative controls
Make sure before running chevron that Wp7 is Screen on and not keypad locked. Make sure the white screen on zune is there clearly showing your phone model and name that you made.
I do NOT have the developers kit or tools installed.
I am on windows 7 64 bit
So this kills all speculations.
Hope you guys can get it to work.
I needed to disable my web proxy (Privoxy, in my case) for ChevronWP7 to work.
Note that you may need to reboot for proxy changes to be picked up by the Zune *service* (not the app).
also i had to close the SKYPE, however it sounds
can u make a video ?
i was traying last 2 day to sync my hd2 (w7) to my pc (windows 7) with zune software but nothing works
I have got WinXP SP3 and it's not working on that ever after using your method.
DID you disable the auto time settings?
did you add the registry key?
Mind restarting the phone and the PC?

Ok..some noob questions because every day i see new things here and to much info just confuse me... This guide will help me unlock (jailbreak) my phone without Activation from Microsoft?????
Or do i need to follow these instructions first following by the MS Activation:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=912218
Also...My only care is to sync Music and images on my WP7 HD2.. I don't need games and such! What do i need to do?? I am downloading zune right now...After that?????
There doesn't seem to be a cure-all for this issue.
I was able to get mine successfully unlocked yesterday almost by chance.
I had to keep going into Command Prompt (administrator mode), keying in c:/windows/system32/drivers/etc, and then executing "notepad hosts" and deleting the host file that the phone kept creating everytime I ran Chevron.
I also had my phone in airplane mode.
Today, I decided to blow up the phone with Task29 and reflash WP7 to see if it helped my battery performance. Much to my chagrin, I was unable to duplicate whatever worked for me yesterday.
I'm back on Android until this is fixed with a known, proven solution for multiple users.
i just install the windows phone drivres and it woks , i just unlock my hd2 but the market dosent work on the phone

You have to do exactly this:
1. Install WP7 sdk Windows Phone Developer Tools;
2. Install zune;
3. Make partneship with zune and phone;
4. Attach the ChevronWP7.cer(you found in the toolkit) to your email and send the email to your email itself (On PC);
5. Login to your email account (On Phone), Open the email, Select attachment and install the cert;
6. Connect your phone to pc and make sure zune is running in background;
7. Run the unlocker (ChevronWP7.exe) and click unlock button(Make sure your phone date is set correctly)
(you need to close skype and disable network adapter.. hamachi.. wireless.. Dropbox.. etc)
6. Install toms .xap installer;
7. Deploy Connection Setup.xap, Touch Xplorer.xap and XBMODDeployer.xap (Install it on the phone and run XBMODDeployer.xap);
8. Copy the .provxml from the ringtons folder to the windows folder (on the phone using touch explorer app);
9. Run connection setup to install the .provxml;
10. Call Microsoft helpdesk and ask them an activating key for your hd2 (don't pm me for the key)
11. Setup up your live ID and enter the activation code (on the phone).
The whole thread is here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=911579

This is guide on HowTo unlock your trophy ...Μost of those info are scattered over the xda...
I put them together as an easy to use guide
At this moment only rom version 7004 and 7008 (pre-NoDo) can be unlocked.
There is a new try by the devs here to unlock the post-NoDo roms...
OK lets start ...Download and extract this file package...
A. ULOCK
1. From your PC: Send a mail to your self (to an account that is accesible from your phone) and attach the
ChevronWP7.cer. file.
2. From your Phone: Open that mail and press the attachment (ChevronWP7.cer) to download it..
Wait unil finish and pres again to install the cerificate
3. Download and install Windows Phone Developer Tools from here.
4. Connect your phone to your pc with usb cable and make sure zune software has see your device and is
connected (not as a guest but a full). Also ignore/cancel any update messages from zune or your phone...
Finally make sure your phone is not in the lockscreen but in the home screen
5. From your PC: Run the app ChevronWP7.exe. Check both boxes and pres unlock.
6. If all went OK then you just Developer Unlock your device and you can sideload application.
B. Prevent from re-locking
Download and install in your phone the app Advance Configuration Tool 1.2 In the settings there is an
option to prevent from relocking...
C. If you have problems
1. Disable Firewall and Antivirus and put your phone to Airplain mode
2. The chevronunlock application runs only on Windows vista and Windows 7. Not in XP.
3. In your pc registry editor make sure the this key is like this:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\SOFTWARE\\Microsoft\\WindowsPhone\\ProxyPorts]
“DeviceReg”=dword:000069C5
4. Any programm that use the Https protocol must be disable (skype is one)
5. Make sure the file hosts in the pc \Windows\system32\drivers\etc is NOT read only.
Here is the file package
And here is a video that i found on the forum
The file package has and some apps like WPDeviceManager.exe and MarketPlace_setup.exe.
What todo and where to go ...After the unlock
1. Now you are ready to install all the updates from Zune until your rom has the number 7392.
2. Setup your e-mail accounts.. from Settings/Emails Accounts
Warning... Your first windows live account that you will setup its the only one that you cant delete
3. Here also you can setup your facebook account. If you dont want to have all the FB "frients" in the contacts page the go settings/application/ people and check there.
4. Install from the market FAcebook and other apps from the market
5. Install Tom xap installer (in the package)...and now you are ready to sideload any application (xap) file that you want to your phone..
6. If your language its not one of the 4 natives ones then you want to install the application Native Keyboard...(in the package)
Its supporting a lot of lang by changing the German or Spanish keyboard...
The second file package contains the following apps
1 Native Keyboard - (in the package)
2. Registry Editor (in the package)
3. Βattery tool (in the package)
4. Facebook and FIM (MARKET)
5. Htc Apps (more that 10 apps from HTC )(MARKET)
6. Flixter and IMDB For movies fans.. (MARKET)
7. Shazam . (MARKET)
8. Wonder Reader και Tech News Now -- RSS google reader (MARKET)
9. Tile Notes- Yellow notes in live tile
Here are the apps not in the market
I will post some Free apps here
Please feel free to post any application that you want here
You should probably edit your original post for NoDo
Nevermind, sorry, I didn't that you already mentioned that. Maybe make it bold... And mention that Verizon phones come with NoDo in the flash - no way to flash back to 7004 or 7008...
Thanks for this guide.
Have a trophy updated to 7390, but restored back to 7008 with zune.
Sucessfully unlocked and ran advanced config tool and checked the "prevent phone from relocking", had to enable airplane mode for it to work, but suddenly now it seems to stay unlocked in normal mode everytime i open up zune.
Can i assume that now it would be ok to update to 7390? how about 7392, would that work too?
Edit: Works ok with 7392, still unlocked.
Did the same as espeneppi...restored my Trophy w/ Vodafone Branding back to 7008, but now chevron is giving that error message (make sure zune is running etc..)
When my phone was 7004 I had successfully jaibreaked w/ chevron
Anyone can help??
How can the device be unlocked if it is not accessible? I can't do anything on the phone. The device is stuck on boot loader screen and thats all it does.
