I need some 100% working tools that can work with D000FF images :). Dump okay, but not sure about building (haven't searched or asked DaG yet). The rest is fine, since I can flash on HD2 as much as I want WP7 hehe :D.

That's where I got the dumping tool, but I need something for building it too, that can work from command line, so I won't have to do drag&drop.

guys i'm not able to unlock it with chevronwp7.exe
it says to control that the phone is connected and zune opened, but all is ok!! it see the phone because if i lock it it says that it is pin protected, but if i unlock it gives the usual error message. what can i do?
I'd the exact same issue looking about 2 hours and finally found a solution..

I just downloaded the windows phone developper tool (7mb then when you run the .exe it takes 380mb to download)

After the download, start installing and closing Zune before.

And during the installation, I'd try one last thing and it worked:

1. On your c:\windows\system32\drivers you'll find a file called "host" just remove the readonly (after removing the lock on your phone don't forget to put again on readonly...)

2. Launch Zune

3. Connect your phone to usb

4. Ok, now your phone is detected on Zune and if you try to run ChevronWP7 with your phone "locked (screen black)" you'll see an error message about pin code.

5. Just unlock your phone (get into the main menu) and execute again your chevronwp7cer !

6. It will add again developer host on your phone and then run chevronWP7.exe

7. If it works like me you will see chevronWP7 and just click on two boxes then unlock and done.

Hope it help someone and solve problems..

ps: didn't finish to install developper tools and it worked
ps2: I have add on my reg too the value dword32 (just look inside this thread..)

sorry about my english. ;)

Same here, I can't install anything else... but the strange part is on Zune he said used space 48Mo and freespace 0Mo then I tried to navigate a bit on IE, connect again on my pc and sync with zune.
After that Zune said 56.38Mo used and still 0 space left. I don't understand.. If I haven't space left I can jump from 48Mo to 56 or maybe a part of the space are assigned to IE only.

I've read somewhere that HD2 WP7 with an sd 2gb card or lower don't work. You need a 4gb+. In my case I have a 2gb sd stock hd2 card.

your sd cards are not compatible (just look under settings - info if you have the space of your sd cards)...

try another one, search the forum for compatible one (hint sandisk class 2)

this is not true, i have used an 1gb sd card and it works fine...but the shipped 2gb card did not work for many peoples (for me, too)

I've again the same problem after hardreset so just add some details to get this thing working good !

Desactivate your ethernet card, quit skype, quit chevronWP7, quit Zune then start Zune, click on your phone icone at the bottom (on Zune), then launch chevronWP7 and it's ok :)

For the SD, can't get my 2gb sandisk working so I've got a 8gb class2 and it works like a charm :)

This information is in the MAGLDR thread, post 1. To uninstall, reflash to stock or cooked 6.5 ROM. If you properly installed MAGLDR, it should bring up MAGLDR when you turn on your phone. You have to use the volume keys to move the cursor to USB Flasher, then hit the green Call button. That will allow the DFT exe file to flash WP7 onto the HD2. All of this information is in the MAGLDR thread. This is not the right place to ask this question.

Try this before you run chevronWP7: Change PC date to 01 October 2011 and Cell to 01 October 2011, then turn the airplane mode on. Then use the ChevronWP7.exe. It should work!:D
