Hi everyone, I am trying to unlock my bootloader on my Galaxy Note 2 following the guide listed on here but I am having issues when trying to open the jar file to perform the exploit. When I attempt to open the .jar file with Java Runtime Environment it errors right away saying Error: Invalid or Corrupt jarfile and this happens both on a Windows XP machine I have and Windows 7 64-bit machine. I have tried turning off antivirus and firewalls to turn all security off but still get the same error. I have downloaded the file multiple times with no luck. I tried searching but can't find anyone that has run into this error before. Has anyone ever seen this or can point me in the right direction so I can get my bootloader unlocked? Thanks
Did u extract the file?
Even if I try to extract the files I get an error that comes up saying that the file is corrupted? I've downloaded it multiple times so have a hard time believing its corrupted unless the file on the server is having issues?
I used the first method to 'jailbreak'/Unlock bc I hadn't installed the OTA. I had a problem with the SuckITVerizon file, I extracted and tried to load it into Odin but kept saying 'invalid' until I just loaded the RAR file then worked like a charm.
I know my problem was diff but maybe if could help somehow? I would try to update your Java then download the file from a different computer and transfer it over. If nothing else works then try the whole process on another computer.
Have you posted the problem in the unlock thread you are using?

I've seen this problem on a lot of threads. Also experienced it as well. Tried to run Casual on both a 64 bit Win8 and 64 bit Win7 machines. Went to my 32 bit Win7 laptop and had no problem. So you may want to try that.

If you are using 64 bit OS make sure you have the 64 bit Java installed and not the 32 bit version

I'm also a damn failure at unlocking, but from what i've picked up in all the things i've read, XP won't work.. You need 7,8, or MAC from the sound of it.

I am unable to use qpst. install says unable to register several files with computer. program runs but can't find a server. any ideas?
reinstall QPST and make sure you have administrative privileges on the account that you are installing on.
I have reinstalled several times. every time it gives me the same error. I am the admin, as I am the sole user. I tried reinstalling all files in the wiki several times. The program does run, it just doesn't find a server. it is able to recognize my phone, I can't do anything with it though. i am using vista FYI
Is your internet connection on with your PC when your opening QPST?
yes. I use dsl
Being the only account on a vista machine does not mean you are the admin, and further more the admin account is hidden. If you install anything and I mean anything at all, get used to right clicking on an installer and choosing the command "run as administrator". Or unhide the admin account and do all installs from there and use the other account for day to day use. This is the method I use. I had problems running so many programs when I first got vista. There are also options to run programs in XP compatibility mode, like when I use webjal.
Read this if you want to unlock admin in vista Or just make sure you right click and run as administrator. This also fixed many issues I had with BuildOS too.
very interesting...thanks for the tip...Im reading up on it now....those sneaky SOB's
I unlocked the admin and logged into it. I reinstalled all the files and still ran into the same problem. I almost wonder if its because i'm running a lap top
the following files fail to self-register during install
PhoneLib.dll
PhonePropLib3.dll
PhonePropLib4.dll
SerialPortLib.dll
QPSTProxyComponents.dll
all of these are in C:\Program Files\QPST\bin
I am on a Dell laptop running vista, and I only installed qpst after I learned the admin account trick, so I can offer no other help. Sorry man!
Edit, what build are you using and where was it acquired?
im using 215 from the wiki
I am using that version from that source also. What is your machine's specs? 64 bit? 32 bit? home or pro? etc... Lets try to get all this information down so we can see whats different.
im running the 32 bit version of vista on a duo core pentium. its an acer laptop. i'm surprised i can't find anything on this on the internet. I think that windows updates may have gotten me. maby its time for the cure all format the hard drive.
1 : Download and Install :
Zune
NetFx4
2 : Create vm_web folder on C: extract the contents of the setup Windows phone 7 tools (vm_web.exe) package with winrar to C:\vm_web\
3 : Go to the folder and open the file baseline.dat in notepad
4 : Look for the section named [gencomp7788]
5 : Change the value InstallOnLHS from 1 to 0
Change the value InstallOnWinXP from 1 to 0
Save and close baseline.dat
6 : CMD+R C:\vm_web\setup.exe /web
Wait wait wait...

I have used this method couple of times and I confirm it working on XP except you can not run emulator, that is not required in our case either I guess.
The problem is that I still could not unlock WP7. It stucks at Chevron unlocker stage. The same problem has been reported by almost all users here. I haven't witnessed anyone unlocking WP7 through WIndows XP machine.

I finally got it to install on XP!
Here's what I did,
Download the .iso file (it's at the bottom of the page) :
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/en/details.aspx?FamilyID=04704acf-a63a-4f97-952c-8b51b34b00ce
After, make a new folder on your desktop and extract the ".iso" file into the folder.
Next, I grabbed the ".zip" file from here, : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=9618980&postcount=81
Take the baseline.dat from the .zip file and replace it in the one with the extracted .iso files. Then just run setup.exe from the file. It should work! But make sure you have about 3 gb free from your hard drive. And emulator doesn't work, but I'm sure its fine if your not a developer.
Remember to hit the thanks button if it worked for you!

yup.
The procedure is same as posted in post # 2.
And with the same result too. Chevron opens but gives error.
i couldnt get chevron to work either on xp. i finally broke down and reloaded my vista and got it working. took me over two days to install vista and all the updates and service packs. i got an old slow computer.
How can install on Window7?
Excusme for my bad english
does the chevron executable even work on XP ?
u wouldnt want to use the SDK on XP if chevron doesnt
Soo?? Somebody got it working or what?

SDK is useful in a sense that it atleast makes Chevron open on a XP machine. Without SDK, you can not even open Chevron.
But once you click unlock in Chevron, it always gives you error whatever you do.
I personally had to install WIndows 7 Ultimate on my laptop and then the whole process was like of 20 minutes hardly. No problems faced. The tutorials posted are fantastic and makes your life easy.
Exploring unlocked and activated WP7 on HD2
So we have to purchase Windows 7 and delete everything?
I do not have money to do this...I hope the devs find a way.
I LOVE windows phone even in the sad state mine is in. I have a Zune HD, and I haven't used it since WP7 came onto my HD2...If I could access the marketplace, I'd love it...guess I'll have to download it (windows 7) tonight...
i had the chevron unlocker working with XP SP3. I'll try it again in a bit to verify it again. will let you all know.
I checked and double checked. My phone was already unlocked, so i performed a Re-lock.
Ofcourse, I couldn't get it unlocked again under XP. Having probs now as well with Win7. Scratching my head now. lol

Emulator will never work on XP nor its required for you as you are willing to deploy things on actual device i.e. your HD2. In short, forget emulator.
For DotNet 4 issue, try installing it seperately.
great!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
If I am reading this right, having the SDK installed on XP is beneficial regardless if Chevron works or not. This is how I see the events playing out:
Use a Wiindows 7 Machine to do the unlocking process with Chevron
Use the XP machine to do the side-loading of applications.
Once the Chevron process is complete, there should be no need for a Windows 7 based machine, as the app loading will work fine from XP.
Am I correct with how I laid that out? I ask because my main workstation is an XP machine. I have 2 Windows 7 machines (my HTPC and my laptop are both Win7); the HTPC is buried under/behind the TV and does not have easily accessible USB ports, and the laptop has a small (17") screen and I can barely see what I am doing on it, which makes it a non-feasible option.
Now, if I were to use the laptop for a few minutes to do the unlocking with Chevron, I should (in theory) be able to perform all of the other options on my XP machine...I hop I am correct with that assumption, as it will be the best way for me to go about it.

I can't install RSD Lite 5.3.1.
I'm running Windows 7 x64, and I have downloaded RSD 5.3.1 from 3 or 4 separate download sites to make sure it just wasn't a bad package.
The error that I am getting is attached, it's error 2738, and yes, I have googled; it doesn't seem like anyone has had this issue of not being able to install RSD.
I have rebooted my laptop a few times, and I was able to install RSDLite 5.0 with no problems.

Thanks for replying.
I installed the drivers and everything again. For some reason it just won't install on my machine. I was able to unlock my bootloader using a Vista machine in like 20 minutes, 5.3.1 installed immediately.
Im having the same issue on my Vista CPU and the same exact code... 5.0 installed fine but I need 5.3.1 since i updated my phone to 2.3.4 if anyone can help that would be great. As of right now Im stock and dont know what to do...
I dont know about windows 7 but I was able to fix this same issue/error on vista.
run cmd as an admin and copy and paste these individually and hit enter after each.
reg delete "HKCU\SOFTWARE\Classes\CLSID\{B54F3741-5B07-11CF-A4B0-00AA004A55E8}" /f

RSD Lite Win 7 x64 Fix
Since RSD Lite no longer comes with an EXE and therefore installing in compatibilty mode is not longer an option, I spent some time researching and banging my head against my desk in frustration that it wouldn't install. In a past job, I was a Windows Developer. When RSD Lite installs and reaches the error, it is in the Commit Stage - Therefore, all the installation (save for the creation of icons and other post-installation scripts) has been done.
All this to say, when you see the Error 2738, Don't click "OK" right away. Navigate to the installation directory, Copy all the files and paste them to a different directory in the Program Files (x86) directory. Then click OK.
Create a shortcut to the SDL.exe file (on your desktop, start menu, wherever you like) and edit the compatibility of the shortcut to always run as administrator.
Double-click your new shortcut et voilà! RSD Lite actually works on Windows 7 when it previously did not.
I have done and tested with RSD Lite 5.6 and 5.7
Interesting. I wonder why this is happening to some folks? I have Windows 7 Ultimate x64, and every version of RSD lite has always installed flawlessly for me.
Good looking out jduke882 - But, in researching Error 2738 I found that it has to deal with not being able to access VBScript run time for custom action. So, all the folks that cannot install RSD Lite - is your VBScript runtime working?
More info here: http://www.jakeludington.com/window...cess_vbscript_run_time_for_custom_action.html
And M$ even created a HotFix for it, see http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/...time-for/1a4499ae-8bc1-4534-9c6f-4d399ac70d9a
FWIW: Those of you on x64 OSs could not use the fix posted by supermerkin b/c that was 32bit specific. The command to be entered is as follows:
Code:
reg delete "HKCU\SOFTWARE\Classes\Wow6432Node\CLSID\{B54F3741-5B07-11CF-A4B0-00AA004A55E8}" /f
The 64bit machines need that Wow6432Node path inserted in order to delete the correct key.
Also, as noted in the first link, re-registering the vbscript.dll to the system is also needed:
Code:
c:\windows\syswow64\regsvr32 vbscript.dll
.
For people with custom Windows installations (i.e. not C this command will always work, regardless of where windows is installed:
Code:
%windir%\syswow64\regsvr32 vbscript.dll

If I am correct I heard you need to disable drivers signature checking by Windows (google it, shouldn't be hard) and then it works like 7.
