CHevron WP7 USB device connections problem FIX!

---

1. Have Winphone developer tools installed. Download it for yourself
2. Connect Phone via USB
3. Wait till zune starts and sync completes
4. Verify that zune is not in a guest relationship
5. open a command prompt, type netstat -a to confirm that port 443 is not being used
6. open an admin command prompt, navigate to c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\ then type notepad hosts and delete any references to windowsphone developer services
7. go to the settings on the phone and turn airplane mode on (so that the phone is forced to use internet via zune)
8. While the phone is still on the settings page, run Chevron with admin privileges

Attention: if port 443 is used (see on your list) stop IIS or exit Skype program

Regardless, this "fix" did not work for me.

Set the time and date of the phone and computer back to like 1/10/2011 and it should work.

For some reason the spoof'ed developerservices.windowsphone.com address to your local machine rejects the HTTPS 443 request if the date is correct. I think it was a built in kill switch by the original devs of ChevronWP7. Because the program can tell whether if the phone is pin-locked or not and will display a message accordingly meaning it definitely has a connection.

Setting the date back seems to have no effect here. I changed the date of the computer and the phone to the 1st of january 2011. Reconnected the phone, waited until sync to zune finished and retried. Still the same problem.

Thanks! Was the developer services in the HOSTS file that fixed for me.

it work properly for me ... if you sync with zune its automatickly broke the chevron unlock... just go step by step and you can unlock your phone withou connection issus usb error...GL & HF

what helps is just to sync for example one mp3 with zune before,t hen run chevron
