Every Chevron Fix I could find on the site - HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an

I truly believe that either I have a different ROM, chevron.exe or my phone hates me. Phone say nothing about HTC at the moment. I have the TMOUS HD2. Its unlocked on AT&T. I have a Key from MS.

What did u do?

Ok i too tried everything and it works randomly for me... not sure when it works.. things i do..
kill everything skype, gtalk, blah blah basically have nothing running..
and then download different versions of this chevron tool.. i found like three of them .. it could be the same file.. but jus download all of em..
then in the phone switch off wifi,
switch on airplan mode,
set date to october 1 2011(do this in pc too),
keep the time zones same in both pc and phone..
and now try to unlock from chevron in one folder, doesn't work remove the usb cable connect it again try using chevron from another folder..
do this repeatedly you will get it unlocked at one point of time for sure.... i am still trying to find out which is the correct fix....
Only after you unlock it , you will able to change the registry to mask your phone as HD7 and then only you will be able to download antyhing from market... b4 that you will only get "Cant get this info right now"
hope this helps, dont give up, you will get it done.... even after this i get "Service unavailable" in market... which is weird no one else get that.. i am trying to solve it...

Slick messenger

Why is slick not working for my titan, it worked well for a day, but now i get an error messeger saying there is no network but i have an unlimited data plan? Palringo works fine but i want slick back, any ideas on why this might be happening, I have WM 6.1 rom updated to 3.56, my coworker has the same phone and rom but his slick works and i put it on his phone, i dont understand the problem, please help
If you recently soft reset your phone you have to manually connect to the data stream...Slick will not auto connect
How would i do that?
understand
If I understand you right, it's not connecting to the network.
If you open Slick, then go to: Menu -> Configuration -> Access Point...
Change it to: The Internet
It should then connect first to your data provider, then to your chat program.
Hopefully that's what you were referring to. Obviously make sure to setup your settings (ie, login/pw) for each account first.
I have to set my Access Point to "Sprint" for it to auto connect, FYI.
All this is set up just fine, it just keeps giving me a Connection Error messege, i looked at my cooworkers and the setting are the same, but his works and i gave him the same updates, i dont get it
Bump it, i just took the update cab within my coworkers slick folder switched from automatic to sprint and works fine now, thanx
when ever i try to log in it always says error auth failed. is there anyway to fix that. i need a good IM but i dont witch one i want to use cuz the aim betea is alil slow, and i even overclock my phone. so if u can help me can u message me thanks

Tmobile wing

after step two in and my screen goes white my active sync doesn't work so after I check the understand box and goes to the next step my phone still doesn't have a connection so I can't get updates. I am wondering am i doing something wrong or what? But my phone isn't bricked. Thanks for whatever help I get.
its not supposed to show a connection it will update unless u get an error message
I think you were stuck where I was stuck when I tried this the first time. When you have to check the box saying you've done everything ActiveSync will not be active even though it says that you checked that it was active. Also you need to go into Settings/Connections/USB to PC and make sure the checkbox is checked for Advanced Communications (or something like that) then it will find your Wing when it uploads the ROM.

[GUIDE] USB Tether Sprint HTC Hero CDMA!

Setup: (This setup is not required but is what I have running when it works)
I downloaded HTC sync 2.0.4 from
http://www.htc.com/uk/SupportViewNews.aspx?dl_id=631&news_id=222
Install HTC sync
Backup the Driver folder from Program File>HTC>HTC Driver
Now Uninstall HTC Sync, You only want to keep the Drivers for MNS.
Now plug in your phone go to Settings>Wireless controls
Turn on Mobile network
Turn on MNS or Mobile Network Sharing
It will try to connect but fail instead leave it. Now on the Computer it should ask to install the Android phone drivers, in this case choose manual install and point it to the drivers in the folder you just backed up.
If it doesn't ask you to install simply go to hardware management and install it manually from there.
Also I am running vista 32bit on my laptop.
Method:
Now this method works by taking advantage of a race condition in the phone.
Essentially you want to get MNS to establish a connection to your computer BEFORE the mobile network can establish a connection with internet. (Hence where signal strength and lag play a key roll)
Make sure wifi is turned off, make sure you are plugged into the computer and have installed the MNS drivers, I have USB debugging enabled but i don't think that makes a difference.
Steps:
1. Turn off Mobile Network and MNS
2. Go to Mobile network settings
3. Select Mode of Operation switch to 1x-only
4. Go back one page
5. Turn on Mobile network
6. Quickly Turn on MNS also
7. If MNS connects before Mobile network you should be tethered now If not turn off Mobile network and MNS and repeat steps 5-6.
8. If successfully tethered go back to Mobile network settings and turn Mode of Operation back to Evdo or Hybrid.

just a question to this. is mobile network sharing normally disabled/deactivated on cdma hero? because for me - bought my phone in germany, htc hero - i just can enable it and start surfing
I just discovered a new much more reliable method ONe sec updating.
You german hero shouldn't be disabled like the sprint hero.

wow, cant believe this worked lol. simple solution... i was getting close to ur results as i was pretty much doing the same thing but didnt realize i had to put it in 1x mode before tampering with it...great job! btw, i only did the steps and skipped your stuff at the top..it was simple enough
the 2nd way sounds way more technical, didnt get around to trying that and probably wont since the first method worked!
Yea I'm sticking with my method because requires no third party software and I don't want to mess with my phone until 1.6 Then I will root it and tether would be a simply patch.
So until 1.6 and root my method is an excellent alternative to tethering out of box.
To lawsofpower48: Did u have HTC sync installed and did you use the drivers from the phone or from online and what OS? Just trying to see if it will work with different setup and whether or not my setup is even needed.
I got this to work just by following the Steps: portion and skipping the rest (besides installing the htc sync program). I'm getting 1.2Mbit/s too!
edit: I'm on Windows XP 32-bit.
we need a direct os x way.. im not installing a wincrap os
I currently have the Hero but am planning swapping for the Moment in a week or so. I know it hasn't been released yet so everything is pure speculation now but....
Would this same tether procedure work on the Moment? They are both running Cupcake and the Moment is just a vanilla version.

What makes you think 1.6 will be any easier to root than 1.5 (which so far nobody has done.)?
insanefury: i didnt really do anything special... i did wut everyone else did from the begininng when i first got my phone was install htc sync ... then i upgraded it to 2.05 when it asked for the update.... then i just followed ur numbered steps...and it worked
another thing is, not sure why, but it wasnt working for me this morning until a good while.... i kept getting the "turn off htc sync/connect"...then my mobile internet says its still turning on then i get that stupid error even though my mns is connected already?.... weird..but i ended up getting it working, i have to look more into it to see what the problem is.

It's not that it will be easier it's more time efficient in my opinion because 1.6 should be coming soon and I'd just have to root it again or apply another patch like the one described in the first page with msl codes. It just doens't seem worth messing with now when the patch is already announced.

If it is running the same OS version I do not see why it wouldn't work. But then again we won't know until it comes out =P
Works perfectly, thank you. I'm posting this while tethered. One question though, can we get caught by Sprint? Other than through heavy network use, is there any way they can detect we're tethered in this manner? Thanks again.

Nah, you'd only get caught if you downloaded massive data. Also I know people who use over 5gigs a month without a single charge. So unless your downloading 5 blue-ray movies a month you have nothing to worry about.
i think i left my laptop connected for the pass few days to my phone...and i accumulated about 1.7 gb..... i dont think sprint will care much either way... just dont be downloading a movie per night for the entire month lol
Thanks for this guide. Sometimes takes a few time to get it to work without a 67 error, but it works great. I have tried doing it without changing to 1x and it worked also. Also sometime just starts working sometimes after reconnecting to USB. Thanks again.

Internet Help Please?

Hi everyone,
I'm new here and this looks like a good place to learn about all things WinMo
Unfortunately, i think i may have donw something to my HD2 and now it wont let me on the internet. It says at the top its connected via 3g or whatever's the strongest connection. But whenever i try to launch anything requiring the internet it comes up saying its unable to connect and to try again.
I've had the phone 3 months and its been fine. THe only changes i've made from standard is adding cookies home tab (which im sure didnt do anything) the only other thing i did around the time of it stopping working is using tree size mobile i selected "Load Default Settings" could this have done it??
I've also just noticed it wont let me call people, it just does 3 beeps and hangs up even in strong signal.
Any help on this would be greatly appreciated,
Thanks,
Mark
Have you paid you're bill lol
anyway settings>connections>then take a look in connections see if all you're settings are still there if not go back a page and hit up connection set-up and it should put you're settings back in have a soft reset and try again call wise not sure, could be a problem with the phone that requires a hard reset(back to when you first got the device)
I'll enquire bout the bill, shouldnt be though, cos when you get cut off it doesnt let you connect to 3g, and when you call its just says connection to this number is restricted on this phone...which it isnt doing, its just not calling at all.
Been into settings and everything is on and i've done the reconfiguration to Vodafone and its still the same.

[Q] internet stopped working today

Not exactly sure what happened, but today my internet stopped working on my vogue 6900. I have metro PCS. Everytime I try to log onto the internet it keeps asking for my password. I have tried the 000000, and that is not working, neither is mymetropcs. I have the unlocker de coder and it is set for 000000. I tried my hex# and my dec# and my serial number. None of those work. Is anyone else having this issue too? Also tried mymetropcs and also left blank, none of these worked
I tried reinstalling the metro cab and resetting my name and password with the abouve--- did not fix it. Can anyone help w/ this?
Thanks in advance
No one else is having this issue?
I am using nsfans rom w/ win 6.5 vogue 6900 if that helps any
was working beautiful until the other day.
I did notice that my unlocker came up out of the blue one day, I thought I had enabled it somehow. Looks like metro might have done it?
Sorry for not answering your pm.
Metro will try to crack down on internet usage from time to time. Particularly if your device was placed in their network via other ways aside from MetroFLASH.
Try to see if there is a newer PRL (although 2001 and 2004 have not been updated in forever). Also, make sure that your proxies didn't change. I have seen this happen before. Check them in Start>Settings>Connections.. (forgot the rest, sorry )
The one thing I did not understand is what do you mean that the "unlocker came up?" Are you talking about CoKeMaN's unlocker? or what?

I had the phone flashed by a corporate metro store and pay for internet
I have tried to reset all the settings in start, settings, connections. It will not save any of the settings
I can get into the epst settings and have checked all the settings in there.
Right now I have another problem too. My pc will not recognise the PDA. I have the right version of sync center, but every time I plug into it, it never recognises the vogue. The phone recognises that it is plugged in, but I am getting an error code and can not find any info on the error code
0x80004005
Also in the epst settings I cant change the setting for PRL capability preferred, it is set at disable. When I click on edit it wont allow me to change the setting. Should this be set at enable or disable?
Do you know the number to dial from the phone to update the PRL?
