Tried installing, but it didn't recognize my HD2.
So following the advise to put a reg entry on my pc, Chevron opened, I checked the required boxes and tried to run, but again it wouldn't see the phone.
I finally found the makers Twitter page, saying that MS will be patching the unlocker on their first update.(proberbly the reason the site is now down).
Anyway after checking Zune on my PC, Microsoft has already installed three patches to the phone during my first Sync.
Here is the Twitter page...http://twitter.com/search?q=%23ChevronWP7
I hope there's a way round this, and I hope I'm wrong, sorry for the bad news...
EDIT: Found out that I need Development tools installed, which isn't stated in the two Threads I was reading, after more searching, I have hope again. If it works I will update this post.
Dam I need Vista SP2 or win7, xp no good.. now I've got to set up a desktop...
Edit: Finally got it working today and UK is screwed...just got off the phone wit MS (UK based folk can call: 0844 800 2400 choose option 2 and then option 7) They've stopped giving them out and to contact my operator. T-mobile UK will proberbly tell me to sod off... so I guess I'll have to wait for a Key-Gen to come out.
Hmm Then i must be just in time because i got mine unlocked a few hours ago..
Hopefully this product works like an Iphone does ( not installing any updates or w/e without notifying you ).. If it happens automatically I'm screwed because Windows Phone 7 seems to have a mind of its own doing its own updating and everything..
I had to install WP7 SDK. Without that, it would not work at all! Just worked for me.

Well the title is correct, Microsoft is patching the ChevronWP7 exploit.
The inclination that the patch has already been pushed is the incorrect part.
Let's just hope something good comes from the talks DFT ChevronWP7 is going to have with Microsoft!

Looks like a win for MS and for all WP7 users content with a closed system:
Nuh uh...no you don't!
No evidence to suggest it's MS, just the ramblings of some paranoid and suspicious forum users started that rumour.
WithinRafael confirms it is not MS.

Well, I had posted that my phone was getting errors and telling me to uninstall the side-loaded apps when I tried to run them. I had not used the chevron tool to re-lock the phone, so naturally I thought ms had done something to get rid of the homebrew apps. It was not until someone here just said you're phone is locked, just re-unlock it. So I did, and i am now able to load homebrew apps. I have not yet plugged my phone back into the computer since I've re-loaded the homebrews.. So I'm not sure if it will re-lock again, or if this was just a quirk.
But as I read the sticky in this forum... Its not ms doing this.

julian schapman has just released touchxplorer there are some limits
it seems to only work on htc devices. Non htc devices will have to wait a bit...
The device is only meant for chevron unlocked/developer unlocked devices that are HTC
Have fun with it
As a matter of fact, tried it on Samsung Omnia 7 and it didn't work. Very promising

Anyhow, already had it loaded on my phone since earlier. Been monitoring his site. It works as advertised. Can't wait till we get some more functionality =D
I like it. Work very well. Top!
One wish I have:
In the folder "Windows", if I mark one file, open this and go back,
its a litle bit sad, that open after from the begining "Windows", and begin not at the last opening.
You have after to scroll a long way down, till you are at the last file you see.
But its only a detail. ;-)
Very good work!
Here we go again.
Some apps in the legit market place and others in the grey market. Yay?
Is it possible to copy WP7 to PC?
works outstandingly! very fast, very smooth on my device. got a custom ringtone!!!!! thanks so much
I actually had this installed for the past week on my HD7 which is what I am typing this post on but just 10 minutes ago a message came up and stated that Touchxplorer has be revoked by Microsoft and it would not let me do anything TILL I uninstalled it. Anyone else getting this problem? Looks like I will have to reinstall it somehow.

Zune likes to relock the device which causes that error... you just need to unlock it again to get it working.... very fun game of unlocking all the time...
There's one bug: sometimes after backing to the previous folder the list displays each item twice. Except that, the app works perfectly.
Just got an error. This app has been revoked by m$hit please uninstall. Should i reinstall it and will it work?

Hi I also really tried but I can not find how to install this on my HD7
Can you or somebody please explain how ?
Did any one had success in copying files from WP7 to PC or the other way around?
I used the zune storage hack and copied some word documents on to the device, in the same folder I have put 2 ringtones I know work using ringtone installer from chevron, some photos and other files.
Sadly I can not find them anywhere on the device via Touchxplorer?
Any ideas?
The same the other way around. Found all the folders holding my music/videos (albait not with original file names) and tried copying other files in there including wp7 ringtones. I can see all items that were there when zune added them but none of the one's I copied.
Any solution?
how can i install it on my phone?
got Omnia 7 with WP7 7.0.7355.0 v (xxka1 rom).
i have copy/paste...
any1 else got this version and can confirm chevronwp7 working?
can't get it to unlock...
i could unlock previous version (before service)
now i alway get no connection... (zune etc. all running) and tried it 100times with all different settings from forums...
we were informed that after the release of Nodo
MS would kill the chevron
So I think that you can not do anything with Chevron
yeah i read that
but do i really have the NoDo update already?
Where did you get that ROM?
i had speaker replaced in warranty....
so the service updated my phone to KA1
i noticed changes only copy/paste and chevron not working anymore...
i found no other changes yet...
still only DHCP no fixed ip...
no camera settings save
maybe battery is better
no user ringtones...
so not much new...

if you have this build 7.0.7355.0,you have also integrate Nodo(copy\past and other)
Lucky you then (unless you relied on Chevron, in which case, poor you)!
Do you use Bluetooth at all? I'm having major issues with my Bluetooth and I'm hoping the update will fix it.
If you have used it did it work properly for you previously, and if it didn't, does it work now?
Sorry to hijack the thread a bit .
i haven't used bluetooth before but will try it tomorrow...
i used chevron to test my own programs and use it...
no other way as i can't get developer acc. in my country...
oh and no multitasking...or i can't find it...as seen on videos

That sucks. Multitasking will be coming later this year, I don't think it was supposed to be a part of NoDo.
OMG no fixed IP... That sucks for me
yeah overall the wp7 is 10000x better than wm6.5
but to "forget" fixed ip??? wtf
like forgeting to include sms on phone..
otherwise it's the best os ever...after few updates it will be in universe..

Are you folks referring to fixed WIFI IP address? If so, the DVP has a option to set static IP address using the EM tool. I am sure other devices should have it as part of the Engineering menu somewhere.

Do you really think that Microsoft cares what you expected?.. They have a huge issue with app security and side-loading (read - the money issue ). Copy/paste feature it's just a little candy for naive enthusiasts...

Is it possible to dump your Rom and make it available for everybody ?
I wonder if they fixed the spratic keyboard responce problems. Still, its pretty disapointing that it has taken them five months to add a feature already implimented in the original OS. Looks like we will be having to do everything ourselves like in iOS.
HTC has relased an app in the marketplace called Hidden Wifi, it will allow you to add a name of a hidden SSID so that your WiFi will connect to it.
This worked perfectly on my HTC Arrive, some users report it doesn't work.

Yeah it was annoying the crap out of me as well, I have my home WiFi hidden. I was getting tired of unhidding it, then later hidding it again. I think the program allows you to name 3 hidden networks, but it works great for me.
Some others are reporting an error and they need to update software, thinking it may be an HTC only thing, so someone hopefully can do something similar for the other devices.
I want it on Omnia 7!
it is not working on my htc hd7 is requesting me to update my wifi software
i hope htc is fully aware of this

in response to this. HTC also update its connection setup app yesterday.
Gotta love HTC
I would love to try this on my LG Quantum if someone could get the .xap
It just gets better!
HTC really made helpful utilities.
Is there a way to download the app on an locked HD7 phone?
On marketplace I can't find the app, but under HTC hub the hidden Wifi show's up.
when i click on the icon the discription with the commands like in market place opens but the button to download/install isn't availabel.
I'm sure that all updates are installed on my phone and I also try to flash a NoDo rom by ansar to get also latest available Radio & Bootloader versions on my phone.
After installing the rom the latest updete to 7392 pop up and is installed.
But the download of Hiddn Wifi is not possible.

OK Since mango now appears to be upon us, thought I would start a thread to track it's progress around the world. When you get the official update, post which country, which device, which operator (or not branded if that is the case) and which hive (if you have that info.)
Guys, please note that the idiots at microsoft have created a *new* page for the mango update status, and they have left the old one (which doesn`t include mango) up.
This means if any of you have bookmarked the old "Wheres my update" page, or If you navigate to "Wheres my update" from the Microsoft front page, you will still get the old page. Unhelpful.
Here is the new link you need to track mango.

She responds that it will and all he will need to do is connect his phone to Zune.
