GUIDE : Dreaded Chevron unlocker issue

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?

Do you see your phone in the Zune window or is it a shadow?
Uninstal zune....restart....instal zune...restart.
plug phone into a dufferent USB

I'm on XP to and i can't make chevron running. what do you mean about registry key? I have to add it on my computer?

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

how did you install the windows phone drivers because when I plug my phone on my computer ( windows Vista 32bit) it just say it just say installing that's it. Also i can't see the phone in Zune no matter what USB port i use or computer. Help would be greatly appreciated.

So to get this straight...to sync my images,music (ONLY!!!) I have to Activate my Phone with Microsoft??

[Q] HD2_Updatable_XBmod_Yuki_v2_native question

I am gonna use HD2_Updatable_XBmod_Yuki_v2_native rom but before it could anyone can tell me if this rom can install the soft after it is flashed?I mean if I want to install any soft should I do any other step?And can this rom charging when the sreen is off?

They say you should be able to sideloade XAP files with TOM's XAP explorer.
You should be able to get marked working to, so can't see why you shouldn't be able to install your software.
Yes the phone charges when the screen is of.

tks
thanks for your answer.I will install the TOM XAP first.

i guess he more likely meant !!
"can the phone be charged if the phone is off"
the answer as of now is NO !!
because MAGLDR doesnt allow this...hopefully we will have a magldr version soon which fixes this problem !

Sync Issues
Im using the HD2_Updatable_XBmod_Yuki_v2_native, after I connect my HD2 to my computer Zune will only sync it as Guest, Ive tried re-syncing but it wont change sync relations. Any helpful tips?

Have you tried in Zune settings/phone/sync options and look under device options, there should be a third option.

[Q] How to get the latest Mango official release

So it's out, but only for some users.
Im currently with NODO and doest want to mess with the back to the future procedure.
Zune tells me my phone is up to date.
I have tried the disconnect trick - no success.
Anyone here managed to get it to work?

I'm in the same position, same phone set up and rom, just tried the Zune trick about 30 times and no joy. Am UK based on Virgin. The suspense is killing me

Me too
I've tried the trick with both with WIFI, and Cellular stick several times.
I'm from Israel on Orange.
Do you think carriers have something to do with that?

same here US T-Mobile

The "back to future" process has been simplified making it less risky if i may put. I wasn't too sure of myself either whether i could get it done. But then after several reviews found it simple and got it running.

What exactly do you mean by simplified? I installed Back to the Future V 2.0 and connected to Zune and let it update to 7392. I didn't want to mess around with all that other stuff. It was too confusing and I decided to just wait for the official release. So, since I just have 7392, which I installed via Zune, over the foundation of Back to the Future ROM, I assume that I will be able to update to Mango via Zune too...am I right here?

Goy it!
I was missing 2 things:
1. Device provisioning cab
2. patiance at the 6th step (Restarting) it takes alot of time

I don't know if this is a help to your problem but try to change your location to the US in zune profile. I did this and got no problem updating the rom through Zune.

Yes you are right but since I didn't opt for that I can say much about that.
This is what i did to get to 7720 RTM Yuki-Xbmod
since you are on 7392 i believe you know the beginning.
What you need:
Yuki native v2 (7004)
7004-7720 (one shot)
wp7 update cab sender.zip(wp7 cabsenderwinxpfix.zip -if you're using win xp-read further on this in the thread)
Device provisioning.cab
You must have zune
All in first post of Yuki-Xbmod "Back to Future"
Steps:
1.Install Yuki native v2 (7004)
2.Follow on screen instructions and set time zone,date and time.
NB:make sure it corresponds to that on the PC
3.leave the phone on don't power off,connect USB from PC to phone-
**Time to install 7720**
4.At PC, enter wp7 update cab sender folder
5.Go to "if needed install this tool" folder
6.Install setup - update wp(x64 for 64bits windows or x86 for 32bits windows)
NB:You can verify this at the Device manager on the PC
7.Copy device provisioning.cab to wp7-update-cab sender folder. Important,please don't extract this(device provisioning cab)
8.Run wp7 update cab sender.bat
9.Then on the PC keyboard,type s-(s)end cabs to device
10.After finished installing close wp7 update cab sender
11.Delete device provisioning.cab (ie. the one you copied into wp7 update cab sender)
12.Open wp7 7004-7720-patch.zip
13.Copy all the cab files to wp7 update cab sender folder
14.Run wp7 update cab.sender.bat again
15.As usual type s-(s)end cabs to device
NB:I believe it depends on you SD Card it should take about 1hr to 2hrs. In my case 1hr.
16.After installation reset your phone (ie. Go to about) it's important.
17. YOU ARE DONE. YOU NOW HAVE RTM 7720 YUKI-XBMOD
You can now proceed to do the official thing if you like.

First It's stated in the Back to Future threads that others have same issues. I think I even saw a post with tweeter link stating you can't get it done with 7392.
Second,I'll advise you start with stock Rom.Safety First. Try and get the SD card unlocked and formatted and follow the earlier guide and I bet you'll in no time have Yuki-Xboxmod RTM 7720.
And my SD Card was in phone from beginning to end. No problem at all.

Error 800B010A - You can try this
Heya,
I tried to update our beloved HD2 today...well I got the dammit 800B010A error all the time (approx. 15 times). I tried the USB update thingy but no success.
If there are still people out there who are struggling with the error:
After checking for USB drivers you can try to:
1. Take out your SIM card!
2. Increase the "reserved space/storage"! (I'm on german zune, so I don`t know the correct wording). You find this when you are in Zune (on Desktop PC) under Device - Settings.
At least the update directly worked for me after increasing the space from 5% to 15%.
Take care.

ISV Beta Cleanup update available on Zune for 7720

What to do?

Doesn't work for me, it just gives an error code and stops at "preparing to install" - step 5 out of 9.
Hopefully a solution will be found.

this update work for me, I can get my HD2 cleaned after installing this

Did you search at all before posting this new thread?

clenaup , update
i tried , take out SIM card, vut it is still not working for me
so my mean is as i have already 7720 RTM it is same as this celanup update, or not true ?

easy
It is very easy. You should disable the antivirus and firewall off windows. Try again and it works.

I guess all apps, data and settings stay?

YES, they do. It took me some 5 minutes to complete the whole process. I don't see any difference though.

Error 800B010A
Some touble here. All the time Error 800B010A.
Increased reserved space.
Took out SIM card.
USB driver is updated.
Somebody?
Edit: Just rebooting computer and phone did it in the end. Don't know why.

- Spent like 24 hours to install this update and finally got installed at 3am yesterday
- Noticed that Battery drain is fixed after installing ISV cleanup update for some reason (left phone running rest of the time while writing this and it seems 3ma while 2G enabled)
- Here are my steps (From scratch):
- Unlocked my sd card using cabs from xbox
- Removed the sd card and installed WM 6.5 and booted the phone completely
- Formatted sd card on windows 7 laptop using diskpart and SDFormatter utility (Sandisk Class 2 8GB)
- installed magldr 1.13 and enabled 24MB from the services menu
- installed native rom v2 from yuki & xbox
- installed updates from zune upto 7395
- Once 7395 installed, go to about and reset the phone
- When phone is booting in magldr screen, insert the sd card
- let it boot completely, go to about and make sure you got the correct storage size ie. 7.39 GB in my case
- installed deviceprovisioning.cab using WP7 Update Cab Sender from xbox/yuki
- installed 7403 from zune
- go to about and reset the phone once again
- now install 7720 from zune (it took 2 hours to install on my phone)
- it should now continue to install ISV beta cleanup without any problem
To confirm you have ISV Beta cleanup installed, reboot the phone and go to zune and check for the updates, it should no more prompt you for ISV Beta cleanup
enjoy the Mango

I removed my sim card though...

I used ChevronWP7 to relock my HD2 and the update worked fine with me.
Try it.
Regards,

switching between all my computers did the trick for me..
went from a netbook (x64) to a notebook (x64) and my desktop (x86) finally did the update. took about 6 times..
I'm finally done updating, ready to try Mango on my HD2!

Hey guys
I update through cab to 7392.. Zune then found update to isv 7403 successfully updated
Zune then found isv beta (7720) but fails on step 8 error 80004005. ..tried all tricks
Is this the last update? Or shall i go to 7720 via cab?? Then hope zune will find this cleanup?

One simple i did is to run windows update and found a new windows phone driver after installing I able to run the clean up without even have to reboot my system

[Q] Zune doesn't detect HD2(WP 7.5)

It seems (by doing several searches here in XDA) that there's a fair amount of ppl. having this issue. And I can't seem to find solid responses about this yet.
Status:
- Pdaimatejam ROM Tango 7.10. (No issues other than Zune and WPDM sync)
- Device Manager shows no issues with the driver. (Device recognized under Portable Devices as HTC HD7 T9292) ...although mine is an HD2.
- Installed WPDM but is asking me or the SDK 7.1 (which I am currently downloading)...
- Touchexperience downloaded but I have no way of running it as can't sync the device with neither WMDC nor WPDM. - also, not sure if this has anything to do with this issue. (I read in one thread that it might help)
- Have ALL windows updates. YES I have made several resets. Connect/disconnect etc. I DO have a windows Live ID.
- I have reinstalled Zune a couple of times already.
how can I get zune to detect my device?
How do I sync this device then?
Thanks a bunch.

you're running wp7...the pc will see as a hd7
you may have a live id, but do you have an activation code to authorize the wp7 phone installation?
don't know what you mean by all windows updates...what updates for pda'a rom? it'a all self contained flash.
have you tried rebooting the pc after zune installation?
you need to have zune running in order to use wpdm
and by resets, did you do hard resets either from setttings..reset or the hardware reset (vol up/down simultaneous during phone boot)
sometimes phone recognition by zune can be slow sometimes.

got the activation code. I am able now (after installing Visual Studio) of using WPDM to transfer files to the device. The Zune issue persists.
I did hardware resets, installed all from scratch (HSPL3, MAGLDR, RADIO) and finally ROM Pdaimatejam Tango 7.10.877.
Thanks for your quick reply hjhjhj!

i run into zune connection issues once in a while too...it usually comes down to doing a pc diskclean process and reboot the pc and try again.
