[Q] Help needed with chevron

Hi guys.
You will all properly think here we go again with this noob question.
I have spent several nights figuring out how to jailbreak / dev unlock my omnia 7 without success.
It was an official t-mobile de version but i did the resistor trick to enter download mode and flashed the retail version i could find in one of the posts.
Now i am on version 7.0.7392 and i would like to unlock the device so i could registry edit my region so i can have a dutch phone when the mango update roles out. ( i also tried downgrading to nodo )
i have read much post but every time i get a error communicating message.
i have edited my host file, installed dev phone software installed certs, stopped running services on port 443, etc. etc.
but i couldn't connect to the phone with chevron.
Do i need to be on a special firmware version or something before this works?
is there someone out hear ho could help?

is there nobody how could help me?

hello,
i had the same issue as you a while back. if i remember correctly, chevron doesn't support nodo - i think it only supports 7008 or earlier. so, flash a pre-nodo rom, and remember to put your phone in aeroplane mode before you connect it to your pc to dev unlock it. also install samsungtools.xap and select prevent devie relock, as well as enable 3g toggle if you want - i find it very handy. reboot your phone after selecting prevent device relock in the samsung tools on your newly developer-unlocked phone.

Hi there thanks for the reply, i have already downgraded to version 7.0.7004
but still the same errors, cant communicate with phone. make sure you are running zune and the usb cable is connected.
do i need to run this from a windows xp machine?
i have done so many things now, installing dev tools. edit registry , airplane mode downgrading firmware, stop running process using port 443, tried 3 diferent machines already now. i cant figure it out.

Is there any solution for this problem .I am on 7008 and getting the same errors I need to install apps on this device

I managed to get get it work. but it is verry strange.
i do not know what it didt to make it work.
but you need to install windows developers tools ( start from a fresh install of zune and developers tools ) run chevron as administrator with the screen unlocked.
Also make sure you install the certificate on your phone.

I need your help..i still cant get mango!! EDIT SUCCESS!!

I went from v2 - 7004-7392cab -devicepro.cab- zune to 7403 - 80004005 error trying to install isv 7720.
Looked all over the internet for this code and somebody found a solution on this website(half way down the page)...it relates to a samsung device but if somebody can explain how do i apply this to hd2??

Ps i try cab 7403 to 7661 but fails with error code straight away..WHY?? Do i need devicepro.cab again?? What would be your advice /route if i wanted to try the cab install to mango? Detailed guide would be awesome
Im running out of patience now i think

Why dont you try to flash your device over Zune?
Just install V2 ROM and then follow the instructions and update via Zune.

Rosetti you couldnt have said better. I Updated All Through Zune. DeviceProvisioning.cab is needed for going from NODO to MANGO.

Yeah dude do it over Zune the last stages are way easier over zune

i can't believe i tried everything else but not this method...thanks all ..i will report back later 2nite..

I dont believe it!
all week i have been messing around with cabs files as people were constantly reporting errors with zune thats why i decided to avoid it but il be damned!
process took around 2hours from start to finish..still got cleanup to go but i rather get some sleep..
i just went from 7403 rom .turned phone off
format sd card
enter magldr - clear and enable stuff
usb mode
flash v2 rom
set up date and time
zune found february update
zune found 7392
Send devicepro.cab via cabsender
zune found 7720 took fooking ages
zune finds cleanup - gta wait till 2mro thou..
not one trick applied ie hard resets/change time zone/reserved space/virus off
it was as simple as that..good nite!

i followed yuki v2, then force update with zune i got 7xxx (forgot) then again force update i got 7392 but then i cant force it anymore to get 7403 (before final force to 7220). i tried 1 sec then pull the internet cable. no success. tried 3,4,5 secs, also no luck. comments?

Once I succeeded in installing Mango on HD2, but then I realised that it's not unlocked. So I flashed my phone again... and now I'm stuck on 7008 and Zune's not giving me any update.
Can you please help me? My hair is all grey

Have you tried forcing it??

I did and it worked now... (not before, didn't get the right timing)

How did you realise this, Venerable sir? Did it say it in toms xap(number of reasons)? Did you try to send dev-unlock-remove.cab then dev-unlock.cab?
You might have saved yourself some trouble and hair dye

I have to say, I tried every possible timings (all between 0 and forever). Don't work for me. Worked with the NODO update on second try. Mango - no chance.
*edit: Don't know why. Yesterday cab sending did not work. Gave me an error. Went to bed. Just thought I'd give it a nother shot - worked. Sent the .cab and Zune found the update for my Phone instantly!
Now all I am lacking is the activation key - waiting for the replay by MS.
Thanks to all, that made this possible!
**EDIT²: Now after finding the update, and installing the first step to Mango, I get stuck at the CLEAN UP update. Can't get it solved. Any suggestions?

[Q] Problem with unlocking after ISV Beta Cleanup

Hi, So I updated to 7720 no problem and wanted to do the isv beta cleanup which wasn't working so I relocked the phone using chevron after reading that several people did this and the update worked and then they could unlock again using chevron.
Now I have a device with the isv beta cleanup update that is locked and chevron keeps bringing up the standard can't find device error whenever I try and run it (yes, I have transferred the certificate again and installed it) and whenever i try to deploy the device unlock cab using the cab installer I get what is shown in the picture below. Does anyone have any ideas?
(I have tested the device and it is definitely locked at this point in time)
Thanks

you dont need to reinstall certificate or unlock cab.
just hard reset and your unlocked from start! its bult into the rom! you just need fresh updated start of os not updated start!
boot phone and at gogogo hold both vol buttons then hit vol- 2 times.

I know you have to hard reset when you update to 7720. I did that. And the unlock was fine, but after the cleanup update I can no longer unlock. Are you suggesting that I hard reset AGAIN?!
I spent so much time setting the damn phone up ~_~

[Q] Need help installing pre mango update 7392

Hello Everyone,
This HTC Surround is my first windows phone. I'm unable to install the 7392 update. My phone gets stuck at HTC splash screen (step 9/10 on Zune). I tried hard reset but same issue everytime.
Is it possible to install this update without going through Zune software?
Can I install mango based ROM directly?
Any help greatly appreciated!

[Q] LG Quantum still has not received mango

Still have not received the mango update. I've been searching and researching this issue for more than 4 months with no luck.
When connecting to zune, it says my phone is up to date with current software version: 7.0 (7392)
i have tried the "walshed" phone fix but that was not the issue.
also, the phone doesnt seem to have full functionality with WPDM and whenever i try and install a .xap file, the application wont launch after being installed on my phone.
the reason i am this desperate is because i want to back up all of my text messages on this phone. my mother passed away recently and it would means a great deal to me that i keep those conversations. if i am able to do this without installing mango, then that is fine by me.
my logic in installing mango is that all of the latest apps such as smsbackup require an unlocked mango device.
i have tried installing WP7 Root Tools so that smsbackup is able to operate on this lg device.
any input would be greatly appreciated, thank you in advance

To backup all SMS and all messages in Messages tile, use SMSBackup. Then try to flash your phone with Telstra ROM, here is the guide.
Note #1: Your phone must be network unlocked first before flashing because you might not be able to enter unlock code once you flashed it to Telstra ROM. The only solution is re-flash to its original ROM then enter unlock code then flash it to Telstra ROM again. You can buy unlock in Ebay.com and price is as cheap as chip.
Note #2: The reason that I suggested Telstra ROM is because it is the only network that give the latest Mango update for LG Quantum, but no sign of Tango.
