You need to do the unlock/reg hack to make it think its a HD7 else it will never download anything from market place.
If wifi isn't working on the HD2, remove the sd card and try another (some sd cards F*** up the wifi).

There are three major issues all are facing:

1. Getting activation code.
2. Device not being detected by ChevronWP7
3. Market place gives error while trying to install free apps.

A1. See if you find any friends in USA or UK and get the activation codes for you. I hope a key generator will be released soon.

A2. Its due to time and date not be set correctly in device. If you have crashing issue, Make sure hosts file in windows/system32/drivers/ext isn't readonly.

A3 If it isn't working try to make a new live account and use USA as location.

Here is the kit I have made for activating WP7 on HD2. Make sure you have to activation code already

Best Regards

HowTo Prevent the relocking of the phone AFTER unlocking by chevron.

1. Install TouchXplorer
2. Install HTC Connection Setup
3. Download and extract this zip file to your PC.
4. Deploy the extracted XAP to your device
5. On your device, using TouchXplorer, copy \My Documents\My Ringtones\CustClear.provxml to \Windows\
6. On your device, run HTC Connection Setup, hit the check button to let it provision.
7. You're done.

This is not new for anyone who's not spending time asking for unlock key, but I've made a small app to automate the process of pushing the limit to 100000.
Here it is: http://bit.ly/e8KCYQ

1. Download the app.
2. Deploy the .xap.
3. Run the application.
4. Ready

Work on my HTC, may work on other device as well (let me know).

That is the real most worst walk through I ever have seen!

Next to different called files in ZIP as in description, the steps are written for Leechspeach-Kiddies who are sitting 16 hours a day before PC.

7. Deploy Connection Setup.xap, Touch Xplorer.xap and XBMODDeployer.xap (Install it on the phone);

How the hell I am deploying? Drag and drop via Zune software does not works.

Really, so annoying this trash here. And XDA news writer are announcing that as a good walkthrough. Its written trash!

Wow. So much gratitude. Perhaps find another forum where there's lots of pictures. Everyone else managed to understand the install instructions fine.

Ask politely, otherwise don't expect your account to be here for long.

I don't understand why some people are finding it difficult to activate it.

- I called MS support, asked to talk to representitive
- Told him I had an HD2 (HONESTLY!) and that I'm tryin to activate it but got an error
- He did not ask for ANY INFORMATION
- Just gave me the code
- All the letters are in lowercase
- Type the on your computer in case you need to use it again (do not share it though)


BTW, how is everyone's luck with the hd2's 16gb micro sd card? mine is causing it to restart and lose data... have to power cycle every time to get them back.... I would love a 32gb

ohh my god thats reallllly great work let me check if it works
