Hi!
I have tried now on two computers (one old windows 2000 platforn with activesync 4.2 and the other with Windows Vista Ultimate x64 with WMDC) and on the old platform it starts to connect but after a while an error. On the new I get no connection to WMDC. I always use my USB cable. The cable works, both loads and turn my loadinglight from yellow to green. My smartphone is a QTEK 9100 Windows mobile 5.
The error occured after I did scan on the phone for duplicated files and removed them. Afterwards it just wont sync. I have tried some tools, turning of firewall, reinstaling and all of the stuff recommended on the WMDC but now I am lost
What should I do?

You may have removed a critical file that you needed for syncing when you removed the duplicate files. Does whatever program you used for that have a restore option? If not, you may need to backup the files you want to save and do a hard reset.
I have tried a hard reset now and it still dosent work. Now I am deeply lost
Try going to start-->settings-->connections tab-->usb to pc and either check or uncheck the enable advanced network functionality check box and see if that fixes it.
I have the same problem...
I have the same problem, i can't sync with my pc. it only shows a balloon that said "Unrecognized Device". I can not find the usb to pc box to be checked... pls help me. thank you
I have tried to find the pc to usb tab but I just can´t find it. I am running a swedish version of wm 5, but it still should be under connections. But it isn´t.
First of all, I had some minor problems getting Activesync to recognize my 8525. (XP, Net 2.0). After a couple of driver updates or whatever, it finally worked!
I tried flashing to a different ROM but had problems during the HardSPL procedure. I stopped it, but THEN had some problems trying to connect my 8525 to the PC!! (Activesync again, ugh!) I uninstalled & re-installed Activesync like 3 times, and FINALLY got it to work again!
Now I have problems installing .CAB files to my 8525. I keep on getting the warning:
"The program is from an unknown publisher. You should install it only...."
I press "YES" and it comes as "unsuccessful".
I press "NO" and I get the "... program cannot be installed because it is not digitally signed with a trusted certificate".
Besides having installation problems, I also noticed that Activesync keeps on disappearing/uninstalling from my PC. I have to install Activesync 4.5 every time I turn on the PC.
Can some one tell me what's going on? What should I do? Should I do a "HARD RESET"? (I have done a SOFT RESET but to no avail). I would appreciate some help. Thanks!
I found out that I shouldn't do a HARD RESET because it will erase the "unlocked" feature in my phone. (I bought the phone unlocked).
I have researched the wiki, and some threads, and ACTUALLY someone else had this problem, way back in 2006. (The .CAB problem). But no one responded.
I also had to uninstall a program I had previously installed in my 8525 due to the fact that it stopped responding. It just wouldn't work anymore. I got the same "unsigned certificate" message.
I guess I'm going to RE-INSTALL Activesync ALLL over again. Maybe it will help it or something...
(This is literally going to be like the 5th time I install Activesync. And I just got the 8525).
IF ANYBODY CAN HELP ME WITH THE .CAB PROBLEM I WOULD APPRECIATE IT.
(I'm running WM6 Pro, AT&T)
freakin piece of crap!
its STILL NOT WORKING!!!!!
It USED TO WORK! I used to be able to install .CAB files. I have only installed 2 .cab files into internal memory (NO external. dont have one yet). I installed Opera Mini, and Wifi Radar. I also installed a couple of themes. I also installed animated themes but deleted them since they wouldn't work. (I think they required some other stuff). I also deleted all the themes except for one.
THEN one day, i tried doing that HardSPL-V7, and I got to the last step but quit since I got an error telling me that if I continue the (usb?)device could stop working.
Another time I tried installing SPB Finance 2.8 .CAB and that's when I noticed it would no longer install .CAB files. (It also won't install directly using .exe)
I researched Google and the forums, and found out a guy that had the same problem (no one responded).
Today I noticed that Pocket Wifi Radar wouldn't run. It said something about the certificates. I uninstalled it, tried to install it again, but it wasn't successful.
So far this has been the history of my 8525. Could it be because the "certificates" were installed in the ORIGINAL computer profile? Since I have installed Activesync many times, I noticed every time it creates a new profile. For example, the first time it was called "Windows PC". Then it was called "Windows PC2". Just right now I installed it again, and it was going to be named "Windows PC3", but I changed the name to something else, and of course it still didn't work.
Could ANYBODY give me some tips as to what I should do? Thank you.
go to settings>connections>usb to pc. uncheck "enable advanced network functionality".
if it syncs a few times with no problems run unlocker tool found in upgrades section. then hard spl then if you feel game enough upgrade os with one of your choice.
Hope this helps... cheers
holy cow, relax guy. you are not the only person to ever get the not digitally signed message.

as for the hardspl problem, i responded to that thread you created, didnt you see?
Ok, I tried what you mentioned ultra, and I got this message upon connecting the 8525 to the PC. (BTW, this is the SAME message that appeared when I was attempting to install HardSPL-V7),
HTC USB Sync
has not passed Windows Logo testing to verify its compatability with
Windows XP.
Continuing your installation of this software may impair or disabilize the correct operation of your system either immediately or in the future. Microsoft strongly recommends that you stop this installation now and contact the hardware vendor for software that has passed Windows Logo testing.
I pressed "Continue" and it installed HTC USB Sync. But then I got the a message telling me "Activesync 4.5 or greater needs to be installed" (even though it IS installed). I ran through the setup again, and it would only let me "repair" or "uninstall". I pressed "repair". Afterwards it asked me to "restart". I did. Then upon loading back up, I connected the 8525 to the PC again, and I got the SAME message again (the one about it not passing Windows Logo). This time I pressed "STOP" and then I got the message about HTC USB Sync not being installed in the computer.
I have been fed up with the problems the 8525 has been giving me. My Clie UX was so much easier to manage. Quick question, I am REALLY leaning on doing a HARD RESET, but I think/kinda know, that if I do, it will ERASE WM6 correct? And go back to WM5?
Oh and yes xtreme, I have searched this on the search bar. And yes, I know you replied back, but you were referring to the Hard SPL. I am having problems w/ installing .CAB files.

dont hit stop dude, u're suppose to hit continue. hitting stop prevents the drivers from being installed and then the RUU wont run
Well I did press "Continue" the first time and I did not see any improvements. I just saw that it installed "HTC USB Sync".
I AM able to successfully install Activesync, I just can't get .CAB files to install.
Could it be because I pressed "STOP" whenever I tried using HardSPL? Should I try and run HardSPL AGAIN and this time pressing "Continue"?
Oh, and are you sure I'm supposed to press "Continue"? After all, I do get that error about Microsoft strongly recommends that you stop this installation. It sounds fishy pressing "Continue".
I just installed Activesync ALLLL over again, but this time in the D:/ drive... still the same .CAB problem.
Oh, and I no longer have the problem where Activesync would uninstall by itself. I noticed it fixed itself yesterday.
BUT I'm still having problems installing .CAB files.
1). hard reset will reset it back to factory its true BUT, and like j-lo's this is a big but, it will re install the last os on the phone (wm6) NOT the stock rom...
2). are you installing the .cab files from the computer or copying them to the memory card and installing from there?
If you install the .cab from the memory card it seems to work fairly well (at least from my experience). if its in a .exe format then it runs from the computer and requires activesync. if you have the .cab file then my suggestion is try to run it from the memory card.. Cheers..
Try installing the SDK certificates and see if that helps
Finally Works!!!!! Hard Reset!
OK, so I've been up for about 3hrs straight trying to figure this out. Reinstalled/uninstalled activesync... tried installing HardSPL again (twice)... didn't work. So I was like, you know what...f* it. I'm going to do a Hard Reset. I'm just gonna try it.
IT WORKED!!!! AND IT STILL STAYED IN WM6!!!! And I think it's still unlocked (although I've read from threads that a HR will disable the unlocked feature).
I AM GLAAAAD THAT I CAN INSTALL FILES NOW!!!! YAY!! (hehe). THANKS TO THOSE WHO TRIED TO HELP!!! SERIOUSLY. It feels really bad when no one tries to help you, even though you don't have a CLUE as to what to do.
** I solemnly swear I will no longer try to use HardSPL or try flashing to a different ROM*. I will use the ROM that came with the phone, and be glad everything is WORKING **
*= at least for until a couple of more months
AND for those who are having this problem (and it's a lot of ppl, based from search results), try a HARD RESET. It helped me anyways.
"and like j-lo's this is a big but"
Glad it worked but I wouldnt allow one bad experiance to turn you off flashing... If I were you I'd still flash hard spl ( in case you find something that you really like). It DOES make it easier to fix "bricks". But just to satisfy your curiosity, go to bootloader and see if it says that you have 2.10 or 2.30 SPL. Also if you want to try flashing, try the sd card method. Its a heap safer (from my experience) than flashing by activesync. Check the wiki for how to do it.
PS. you dot need to reformat the sd card. if you have all the stuff you want on it then just copy the .nbh to the root of the sd card and rename to "hermimg.nbh", it will load as soon as the hermes is put into bootloader and you wont have to re-install anything. Works every time for me and I've done it about 30 or 40 times...Cheers......

i think his problem is that he can't install .cab files period. he's having the same problem as me. my first phone had that prob, i updated .net 2.0 and it was fine. got my second phone here, update .net to 3.5, but still can't transfer/execute ANY cab files to my phone. the pc just doesn't recognize the phone period. i can't copy/paste, can't push anything through onto my phone. it's crazy. so what else can we do? i'd like to think i'm pretty tech savvy, but this isn't cool LOL
Hello,
now I cannot execute a 'not signed' .exe from my diamond, because of the 'not signed' error message.
I tried to see the first steps of the android port on the diamond touch. I had to remove the battery to stop the application. Since, it's not possible for me to execute any non-signed application (total commander, putty, ...).
Did you find a clean solution? I prefer not to go through the steps of reinstalling a new firmware (windows isn't accessible on my computer & I have a rather old backup of my diamond's files).
I allready have a hardspl, because my orginal ROM is from SFR (french operator)... and I prefer the original HTC version which is more beautiful & more uptodate.

Trying the same thing for my Diamond after trying out Android on it.
Same problem here. Running android 1.0 got me into this trouble.
(Running android 0.8 multiple times did not cause this problem.)
Did anybody find a better solution than hard reset?
Re
Same problem here cant run .cab files after trying run Android 0.8.
Damn , dunno why i tried to run Android 0.8
Hello to everybody!
After all I have to say that this is a fantastic forum for users of Qtek S200 (Prophet). I bought one last week and started to see what I could do. Therefor... I'm a newbie
This is my first thread, hope that some one can help.
After trying to understand the world of Prophet, I first changed the ROM to an official Qtek ROM.
Now I what to sincronize with my PC to transfer photos and put some software and apps in the card. Like I read here, I downloaded the activesync from microsoft site, instaled it and plugged the cable to my pda. Nothing happened. Than I went to activesync connections enabled USB connection and tapped in connect. After a search, the pda was simply not found. Even after turning down de AntiVirus and Firewall, nothing happened.
What happened? I have to do something in the PDA? Couldn't find that info in here.
Thank's in advance for the help
Heurd
Does the LED in the speaker at the top change to orange?
Does the computer react at all? (any sounds etc.)
If not, try putting the device into bootloader: Press and hold the COMM button and then soft reset, and then plug it into your computer and see if anything at all happens.
If nothing happens, the USB cable is damaged. If the computer responds when the device is in bootloader but not when it is in, the ROM may not have the required software installed in it.
Hi,
Yes, the Led turns orange. I can charge the battery with that cable. But i also read that it's possible in some cases to charge but the part to syncronize can be damaged!!!
But what really intregues me is that I used that cable to put the ROM that I have. Supposedly it's a Qtek official ROM, i don't know if you can conclude something with this:
IPL 2.10.0001
SPL 2.20.0001
GSM 02.47.21
OS 2.20.7.29
In PDA appears the active sync icon and tapping it only appears a window that says to install AS in PC and connect. So I suppose that it has something.
thanks to l3v5y for the sugestion... I will try and than post here what happened.
does anyone has anymore suggestions... I will try everything to put this at work.

This seems to say you haven't successfully installed Active Sync. Try restarting your computer and seeing if it works then.

That is surelly not the problem because I installed AS 4.5, restarted the computer more than once, removed that and reinstalled and nothing... I even had put de AS 4.2 to try and see if it worked - nothing.
Now I'm not in my computer... I will try what you suggested when I go home.
I think it may be something to do with the USB cable...
Had that problem a while ago, my solution was to reinstall windows xp and it worked. so backup your pc, format your hard drive and then install the os (windows xp/vista). i guess it was usb-driver related.
REALLY
Unbelieveble...
well, It's easier to try in another pc before formatting mine. I'm not in the mood (too much time to put like I like)
That way I will check and see if my cable and ROM are allright.
Thanks for the tip croco_64
Hope to tomorrow come in here and wright that it's everything ok
Hi there!
Well... I've tried what you proposed. It is probably a problem of the cable. I tried with a cable of a digital camera and finally the computer detected the phone (with mine it only went orange light in the top, but never recognized - despite I changed the ROM with it ). However it gives an error - the instalation is not complete!!! I went to device manager in the PC and there was a yellow (!) in the windows mobile device.
Is it of the cable!? Do the cable have to have specific properties to sync the pda and the pc? The camera cable isn't enough?
yes... I had put activesync 4.5 in the PC!!!
thanks again for the help
hi, trying to synch my wizard to eith er desktop (xp) or laptop(vista). it worked with vista briefly then stopped and has never synched with xp. the phone is charging when plugged in. xp just says windows mobile based device has found errors when installing and wont install, and vista wont recognise it apart from charging. i read that i should change the usb to pc settings in the connections tab, but i have searched the entire phone and that setting is not anywhere. i have performed many soft and hard resets, but to no avail, and also tried 3 diffrent usb cables. also tried syncing with bluetooth, but same response.
can someone please shed some light on this, as its getting very inconvenient to keep having to use the mem card for everything, and i really wanna try a new rom on this blasted thing!
thanks
try uninstalling activesync on the pc. it seems that the drivers may have been corrupted. also use a program that does secure deletion like "ccleaner" if I remember the name correctly. that shoud delete all of the files and overwrite the deleted sectors on your hard drive completely; as well as make sure tha there are no registry keys left behind.
then, restart the pc and reinstall activesync. and reset the phone before connecting.
The above is worst case senario. before doing that, try this first:
delete partnership in activesync and reset the phone. restart the computer (shut down, not restart)
then when the comp boots completely and the phone boots completely; try reconnecting again.
I once had that problem with a rom I flashed. someone forgot to put the driver into it
fixed...for now?
ok first...wow, thanks for all that!!!! second.. i think i may have fixed it! i was wandering thro the forums seeing what i could find on the subject of activesync problems...50gazillion posts later...i found this page http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=271174&highlight=rndis
it eemed peoples were having the same probs as me. in one post was a rndis to serial cab file, so i d/ld it and installed on my fone via the mem card, plugged fone in....synched straight away!!!! and has stayed synched so far..about half an hour. i shall post tomorrow whether it will resynch after a period of being disconnecte...fingers crossed!!!
Is there a way to install HARDP-SPL from the micro SD card? I am able to flash any rom from my SD-Card, but I am no longer able to connect my Polaris to active sync. Get an error "USB Device not recognized" and I am not able to get synched. Now I have flashed several different rom's and also different radios, that works from the micro sd card. but I am still not able to connect with active sync. When I enter the bootloader mode then I just see that message "POLA100 MFG SPL-2.20.OliNex CPLD-2" So I guess the Hard-SPL is missing. Home I will get some help ;-)
If you step manually to bootlader mode and see the Olinex string, hard-spl is installed!
Thanks for your answer, didn't know that. However, I am not able to connect to active sync even though I have tried different ROM's and different Radios also, flashed from SD-card. Still no connection to activesync :-(
I have the exact same problem for almost a year now, flashing all roms with the micro sd card... and living without active sync :S
Hope someone can help us here
maybe 2 things :
1- your usb cable is ko...try with an another one
2- maybe the usb pins in your device are twisted or broken...
cheers!

1- the USB cable can't be the problem, already tried a different one, plus using my Touch pro with the same cable on the same computer
2- the pins, I don't know, they look good for what I can tell and it is strange because the phone will be charged with the usb cable
wish I would find a solution.....

Can you dumb that down a bit? I don't have access to a windows computer, so I have to rely on the microSD. Is there a way to Hard-SPL the phone with the SD card? I performed a Hard-SPL on my Wing when I first got it, but I think it was an older out-dated version, cuz I get an "Invalid Certificate" error when trying to flash from my microSD.
Thanks,

easy solution which I found
If you first install the .nbh file of the .72 stock spl using the micro sd card, then your device will not boot into the OS. Now run the Sony Ericsson update utility (which you can download from their website) and run it. It will try to upgrade the system through usb. After different steps, this software will ask you to reinstall the OS (the spl should match first) and then you can reinstall the stock spl and you are back to square one. Now from here, you can now go anywhere you like.
Note: The above method, I tried it myself and it worked. It might not work for everyone hence use it at your own risk. But if you have a bricked device, then there is nothing to lose.
