Special edition rom upgrade big problem please help!

I tried to upgrade to the special edition rom using active sync and a executable file. When I ran the file everything seemed ok, it was communicating with the device and said upgrading it will take about 5 minutes. After a couple of minutes it said cant open port use pc device manager to make sure ports are enabled. I did this but when i clicked ok the programme shut down. Now active sync does not recognise my device and the device just shows upgrading it will take about 5 mins do not remove usb connection or power adapter from your pocket pc.
Anyone any ideas as I'm new to this I dont have a clue.
Thanks in advance
Mick.
Use the SD card method and please dont ask for a step by step guide. Search this forum it is somewhere around.

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!!!

[Q] Problem flash games, application XAP Instaler. Help !

Hi!
I have not a common problem. I upload only 3 applications for my HTC HD2, but when I send something else by the XAP instaler pops up the following error:
Connection Error
-Please Make sure your phone was unlocked!
-Please Make sure you connected device is a PC and the Zune launched
Try again?
The phone is unlocked and of course, synchronized with the Zune.
Please help me.
You need WP7 developer tools installed on your pc as well to run xap installer properly. Or maybe there's an issue with the max number of assigned apps, edit the registry like this: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\DeviceReg\Install]
"MaxUnsignedApp"=dword:7fffffff
(I have attached the regeditor for you)

[HowTo] Guide To unlock HTC Trophy. First steps and some free apps

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.

I had the same problem, but then I used the wp7 update cab sender and dev_unlock.cab which worked
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=17306513&postcount=1
custom ROM is already unlocked (BTTF and HD2O) but people not read instructions... chevron is useless for this ROM's
Alright i've checkron chevrons website and the tokens ($9) aren't for sale right now, but thanks everyone.
how to
since it took some time for me to find out how to side load apps in WP7.5, I'll explain it to other noobs:
You need to install Zune, the .NET 4.0 Framework and Windows Phone SDK 7.1. Then install Phone7Market (you can find it here). It comes with the Phone7Market itself, from which you can download your .xap files and with the Phone7Deployer. Connect your HD2 via Zune, create a desktop shortcut for the Phone7Deployer, get your xap file you want to deploy (i.e. from the Phone7Market) and drag&drop it on your desktop shortcut. It won't harm to check the two boxes (remove drm and the other one). A few seconds later, you should find your app/game on your device.
btw, this is FREE, so you don't need to pay 9 bucks for chevron.

I'm sorry to hear that, but I can't help you with that since I don't have this error. The only two things that come to my mind: You need Windows Vista or 7 for the SDK and you should try a hard reset on your device (backup your data before of course).
