i tried these direction....below (did not mean to post this here )..i dont know what else to do

1. Install WP7 sdk Windows Phone Developer Tools;

2. Install zune;

3. Make partneship with zune and phone;

4. Attach the ChevronWP7.cer(you found in the toolkit) to your email and send the email to your email itself (On PC);

5. Login to your email account (On Phone), Open the email, Select attachment and install the cert;

6. Connect your phone to pc and make sure zune is running in background;

7. Run the unlocker (ChevronWP7.exe) and click unlock button(Make sure your phone date is set correctly)

(you need to close skype and disable network adapter.. hamachi.. wireless.. Dropbox.. etc)

6. Install toms .xap installer;

7. Deploy Connection Setup.xap, Touch Xplorer.xap and XBMODDeployer.xap (Install it on the phone and run XBMODDeployer.xap);

8. Copy the .provxml from the ringtons folder to the windows folder (on the phone using touch explorer app);

9. Run connection setup to install the .provxml;

10. Call Microsoft helpdesk and ask them an activating key for your hd2 (don't pm me for the key)

11. Setup up your live ID and enter the activation code (on the phone).

(also i tried these directions to ...below)

1 - Disable LAN card in your PC (Control Panel\Network and Internet\Network Connections\ right click on "Local Area Connection" and choose "disable"). It is very important to disable ALL connections, but you MUST remember which one is used for Internet access (see below, why).

2 - Do all the standard steps of unlock - install certificate, start WPConnect e.t.s. When Chevron fails to unlock - LEAVE IT OPEN.

3. Start Notepad and open hosts. Delete lines added by Chevron (at the bottom). Save. LEAVE NOTEPAD OPEN.

4. Press Win+R and enter IPConfig /flushdns , press "enter". CMD window will blink for a second - that's normal.

5. Press Win+R again (there will be IPConfig /flushdns typed already), but DO NOT PRESS "ENTER", just leave this window open.

6. Now the trick. Start WPConnect. WHILE it connects, continue to repeatedly press "Unlock" button in Chevron, until the black CMD window of WPconnect disappears. Chevron will fail to do its job, but that's in fact is the very thing we need.

7. Now, do not touch Chevron window, just return to Network Connections and ENABLE yor LAN card.

8. Go to Notepad and JUST CLICK "Save", do not alter anything inside.

9. Return to the window with the typed command IPConfig /flushdns . Press Enter.

10. Start WPConnect, WAIT until it disappears, and press "Unlock" button in Chevron. You're done - this time unlock would work

these r the third set of steps i took 9and nothing )

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
