CHevron WP7 USB device connections problem FIX!

ilijan · Jan 16, 2011

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

Link has an ellipsis in the middle of it.

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

I mentioned this in the original thread:

I had the same connection problem as everybody and then out of desperation I set my computer and phone date to the 1/10/11 and tried and it worked!

Guys.. finally..atleast I had my phone unlocked by chevron..
change the date to a future date(as a post earlier suggested, thanks ) , for me it was 01/Oct/2011...it worked finally..dont know how everything else pans out....will update..

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

charliess · Jan 16, 2011

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

G-ThGraf · Jan 16, 2011

doesn't works for me :s :s

wixxer · Jan 16, 2011

How do you clear port 443? And how do you delete the host file after typing in cmd.exe?

pinodrum · Jan 16, 2011

yes....i do it....but...it's the same error...aaarrrhhhhh....
For two days the same error....I can not understand why, and I have done everything ... sure ...

please, help me...

P.S.
My os is a 64 bit, but i tried also a 32 bit so....windows 7 ultimate in both case...

ilijan · Jan 16, 2011

i think its enught try this step:
connect hd2 to pc via usb ,
zune start and sync.
you must have UNLOCKED SCREAN not black screen not lock screan!!
your devie must be on.
navigate to c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts double click and open with NOTEPAD...

look down and REMOVE!!!!!all this text from the host file:
192.168.1.102 developerservices.windowsphone.com
192.168.1.102 developerservices.windowsphone.com
192.168.1.102 developerservices.windowsphone.com
192.168.1.102 developerservices.windowsphone.com
192.168.1.102 developerservices.windowsphone.com
192.168.1.102 developerservices.windowsphone.com

if its removed put X to close the notepad, its open dialog windows and you click to yes save it.

after that go to chewron and run as administrator
and just unlock the device

aiwenor · Jan 16, 2011

for me it worked only when I closed all the messenger clients (skype, ym, oovoo, live), not only skype...you can try this too

kswissonez · Jan 16, 2011

Very helpful, Im assuming it worked because it gave me the option to "relock" the phone?

commensal · Jan 16, 2011

Doesn't change anything for me with Xp pro. Always same error but it's certainly normal caus' i'm not able to instal wP7 sdk

nova hands · Jan 16, 2011

Success!

My problem was that I had no internet connection in Zune.
I only use my Android phone to tether to the internet, and this whole time I wasn't tethered online.

It seems Zune MUST have an internet connection, and the phone MUST be in airplane mode for this to work.
