Crashes my PC - JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General

My MDA Pro crashes my PC (with Windows XP Pro SP2). As soon as my PC detects the MDA Pro - via USB using Activesync 4 or not, the PC immediately reboots.
Windows reports the problem as "A device driver installed on your computer caused the problem; however, we cannot determine the precise cause."
I had no problems connecting with my Orange SPV M2000.
The MDA Pro does work fine on my Win2k work PC, but that's far from ideal!
Are there any alternative Windows XP drivers to try?

Sync problems in Vista
The reason for your problem is that the RTM version of Vista don't have Windows Mobile Device Center included because it was still in beta. To get the latest beta available download it from: http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/devicecenter.mspx
I have no problem to sync my P3600 on Vista with the beta software.
Greetings

In addition to sync/exchange files, which worked even without the above mentioned software, as it will see the Trinity as just another USB memory (drive letter) device, you'll need this beta software to install/add any non-cab file based programs on the Trinity.

So you guys can Sync files and outlook in Vista?
I have the Mobile Device Centre Beta 3 installed for use with my 6828 and all I get is Sync my media files.
Anyone else experienced problems with not being able to sync outlook data or being able to install programs?
Yes, I had a lot of problems getting the partnership with P3600 working. I was trying to pair it via Bluetooth, but that didn't work either. I then tried installing some Toshiba bluetooth drivers for my Dell TrueMobile BT, that installation failed but somehow Vista recovered by reinstalling its own BT-drivers and after that I got a perfect ActiveSync connection over Bluetooth.
Every now and then I get some sync errors, and most of the time these are solved by closing Outlook 2007 and then resyncing (which starts Outlook in a hidden thread). Rebooting the notebook helps also of course.
I've Vista too and my trinity was recognized automatically. The only problem is that i can't install application by Mobile Device Center because every program ask me to install Active Sync 4.2 but Vista not permit to install any release of active sync.

Cingular 8525 -- Drivers for Windows Vista (32-bit)?

I have attached my Cingular 8525 to by computer via the USB cable. I am running Windows Vista (32-bit, official product release [not a beta or release candidate version]). I have also inserted the original Cingular CD containing the drivers for the phone. However, these drivers are for Windows XP (or other versions of Windows, but not Vista). When I connect the phone to the USB cable I get an error:
----- begin snip -----
Windows needs to install the driver software for your Generic RNDIS.
Device driver was not successfully installed.
Generic RNDIS
----- end snip -----
I have also searched the XDA-Developers Web site for answers, but have not found any relevant answers (http://forum.xda-developers.com/ and http://xda-developers.com/). Places I have looked for answers include:

Install Windows Mobile Device Center Beta. It's available free from microsoft. After installing that my 8525 was recognized immediately and installed the following drivers automatically:
WpdRapi.dll
WUDFRd.sys
Microsoft Windows Mobile Remote Adapter
There may be some other things it installed, but the bottom line is my 8525 is working well with Vista and everything installed automatically. My 2125 is working well, too.
EDIT: I am using Vista RTM Build 6000.
Windows Mobile Device Center Beta is also working for me (on a T-Mobile Vario II). A little buggy but does the job.
Does anyone know when the final release of Windows Mobile Device Center will appear?
WMDC Beta 3 on Vista Ultimate is one of the most useless beta from MS ever. In fact apart from a connection sound my Vista doesn't do anything when I connect my TyTN - on my XP Pro home at least I can browse my device. Here at work I can't use it at all, period.
After 1-2 months of use I have to admit this Vista is an enourmously giant piece of sh*t for hundreds of dollars - stay away of this crap at least for another 6-8 months or as long as you can.
Firstly, Vista is a great OS. You need the hardware for it (it really needs more than 1Gb of RAM to perform well) but if you have then it makes XP look like the aged operating system that it is.
And although WMDC beta 3 is not perfect, it works OK on my PC and is much nicer than ActiveSync.
Yep WMDC beta is a little buggy but that's why they call it beta. And since Vista Ultimate hasn't even been officially released any criticisms of it or reports of problems with it on your system are mute until the release date.
With that said, I'm running Ultimate on a Toshiba laptop and love it.
I am having a simular problem. i cant connect my 8525 to the pc. when i attach the usb to the computer and the device nothing happens.
under device manager when i force it, the 8525 comes up as an unknown device and when i try to install drivers for it, it says it cant find any.

I have a multple boot machine, running, XP Pro, VISTA Ultimate RTM, Knoppix on HD (linux kernel 2.6), ofiice 2007 on both Windows. I use also Virtual PC 2007 on VISTA to have an XP Home virtual machine inside VISTA
No way to have a reliable use of mobile devices in VISTA.
Windows media player Sync is a random event, connecting and syncing is the old and well known Windows "Plug and Pray"., Virtual PC can't use USB sync, no way
On Xp Office 2007 works perfectly with Active Sync 4.2, I flashed the Hermes BIOS, and Shared my phone Internet connection.
Vista is still in a growing up stage (buggy or NO drivers at all, old Sw unstable when running on Vista, USB devices like webcams, USB phones, printers not working) . As an example I have an all-in-one HP network printer, with drivers included in VISTA Ultimate RTM release. I can print my photos only with borders, no way to print borderless!)
To solve all VISTA issues and release the full power of VISTA-Mobile Devices integration I think a common effort is needed, between mobile 0S (crossbow will be released also with this purpose) and WMDC. Remember, at the beginning they said "no need of any other SW to connect and sync VISTA to mobile devices", then... we still have WMDC in BETA

aroundlsu,
What driver(s) show for your 8525 under Device Manager? Mine is showing as HTC USB Sync and always generates a Code 10.
TIA,

Do you have WMDC installed? If so, Update the RNDIS driver manually. You are looking for the Microsoft Corporation "Microsoft Windows Mobile Remote Adapter" drivers. You will have to use the Show All Drivers switch when you search for it. Then a second New Hardware window will pop-up, this is the one for the Hermes. Unfortunately it is also where I am stuck. I have my 4700 syncing, but my 8525 is not properly identified/loaded.

Vista works fine with my 8525.. everything sync'd up by itself. I think it automatically downloaded the HTC update.

Does Vista hate WM5?

Hi
getting to the point of pulling my hair out. I have an Orange M600 running WM5. The only change I have made is to make the GPS icon visible.
I have a new laptop running Vista Home Premium.
I have downloaded the latest version of Windows Mobile Device Centre (WMDC).
When I connect my M600 to my laptop (via USB), the phone screen turns on and the phone starts charging.
But the laptop refuses to recognise that there are any devices attached. No drivers are installed and WMDC does not list any connected devices.
The cable and phone work perfectly with my XP PC but not with the Vista laptop.
This is a little frustrating. Anyone else come across this problem and solved it?
Solved
Finally resolved this.
The USB cable that worked on my XP desktop must have had a fault on it, because a different USB cable on the laptop got it all working fine.
Vista Home Premium/ Windows Mobile Device Centre / WM5 all seem to work together.

Bluetooth - FTP service not found on target device

My laptop at home is Vista, at work it is XP. I can bluetooth files from my XP laptop to my phone but when I try at home I get "FTP service not found on target device".
I want to use BT because my touch HD USB port seems to have stopped working in activesync. It stopped working a week or so ago, I have not installed any new sw on my laptops or phone. The usb cable is detected for charging the phone but not for activesync. If I go to the bootloader(?) screen and plug in the usb it does not change from 'serial'.
ROM 1.14.405.3 (22273) WWE
ROM date 12/09/08
Bluetooth version 2.0/2.0+EDR
Thanks in advance for any help
me too
same problem!!!!
neeeeeed help
Hi, any solutions to that problem? I have similar situation on Sony Vaio with Vista 64bit and Widcomm bluetooth drivers, which were originally preinstalled with system. I'm getting this message every time I try to send a file over BT to my PDA. Tested with HTC Touch Pro and TyTN. Sending files from other machine (Dell Latitude D830 with Vista 32bit) works fine to both PDAs - via OBEX, don't know why Vista 64 tries to send via FTP. how can I choole protocol, which is used to send files via BT?

HTC Touch P3452 (256/128) Sync Problem

I have a problem synchronising my HTC Touch P3452 (also called T-Mobile XDA Touch / the model with 256 Rom / 128 Ram).
Simple: It doesn't work.
When I connect the USB cable the batterie starts being charged, but there is neither the typical Windows sound when an USB device is connected, nor does the "Windows Mobile Devices Centre" recognize the device.
When I try to start the active sync connection in the connection manager of the HTC touch it tells me to install the synchronising software first or to configure an exchange server.
Enabling or disabling the hook for "advanced network functions" in the "USB to PC" settings of the HTC touch connection options makes no difference.
Some infos:
ROM-version: 2.81.111.1 GER
Rom-date: 08/29/07
ExtROM-version: 2.81.111.103
I'm using Windows 7 Professional 64bit, DHCP-device-service is active, all updates are installed.
I'd try updating the firmware, but obviously it's not possible without a working active sync connection.
PS: My older HTC Touch P3450 (128/64) has no problem at all. I connect it, it starts synchronising. The HTC Touch 3452 is from a friend of mine and when I asked him he said he was able to synchronize, but under Windows Vista. I don't see why it shouldn't work in Windows 7.
Hi
Ì don't have Win 7 but I think I read somewhere you have to put it in compatibility mode with Win xp
Edit: a little search and I found this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=519602
(you should try it too )
Put what in WinXP compatibility mode? The HTC? How. I never heard this was even an option.
Or do you mean the mobile device center? Why should I do that, it's a programm native to Win7 and it works with the older HTC, so normally it should with the never device, too.
And about your second link...well I already have Win7 (not the RC version) and the latest version of the windows mobile device center is already installed (came with the operating system). There is no windows update for that either, just checked.
I'll try to get my hands on a bluetooth-usb-stick, see if that connects properly. Unfortunately I don't own one...
I don't see any problem with my P3452 sync with Windows 7 Enterprise 64-bit Version. In fact it work instantly when I connect the USB cable to my laptop after I upgraded my laptop to Windows 7.
Did the cable connect properly? or the USB port on the phone itself?
How many pc the phone have sync to? I remember cannot be more than 2, but I might be wrong.

It's only one PC and I think the cable connects properly, because the phone is getting charged when I attach the cable. On the other hand there is no Windows sound indicating a USB-device has been connected and the device doesn't show up in the workstation.
So it might be the USB connector which is broken (the cable worked without any problem on my older HTC so it should be okay). As the device is already a few years old I don't have any guarantee left.
On the weekend I will try to connect it via bluetoot with my brothers notebook (don't have bluetooth on my pc). If that works I will get me a cheap bluetooth usb dongle...
Also check pins aren't bent inside on the phone?

They look okay to me. Nicely in a row, none is bent.
After some little trouble setting it up, synchronizing via bluetooth worked today.
Thanks for all the answers.
