Hi,
Apologies if this is in the wrong forum.
I brought the o2 Xda Mini S yesterday, and have just got round to installing it. I have come up against a problem as I plug in to my pc, as I plug in the usb it does the usual "Found new Hardware" but I cannot locate the driver "Generic RDNIS" does anybody know where I can download this driver????
Thanks in advance,
Ross
do you have activesync installed? normaly activesync installs this driver when a pocketpc with wm5 is connected.

Yeah I do ( 3.8 ), cannot use 4.1 as I need to update my pc to install that, and windows updates ruins some of my applications.
cheers
Hi - I think you we struggle to connect a WM05 PPC if you do not install the latest activsync (4.1). My Mini S would not even connect reliably with the software that came with the device (O2 XDA - the disc has ActivSync 4.0!!!) as soon as I upgraded to 4.1 it's much more relible, not perfect! and certainly not as good a my back up device - HP2210 running WM2003 this device never failed to connect with 3.8.
Sorry but I think you will need to update your PC somehow.
Unless anyone knows a trick to get around this problem. :?
Regards,
Chris.
It won't work with 3.x, you need 4.1 installed.
Hello all,
I have bought qtek S200 recently and i have spent a lot of man hours trying to get this thing to sync with my desktop computer. it works fine with my laptop however doesn't want to sync with my desktop.
I get an new hardware wizard when i plug my pda into the USB requests for me to point to the drivers because windows was unable to find drivers.. I have gone through troubleshooting steps where disabling firewall / ant virus. Uninstalling active sync reinstalling / downgrading active sync and upgrading no luck. doesn’t matter if i try 3.8 or 4.2 it doesn't want to recognize my device and asks for the drivers.
i have windows xp with service pack 2 installed. so at this point i am wondering if someone has the driver files for it ? or what should be next step, any help would be appreciated.
Don't even try with activesync 3.8. It doesn't support WM5. Use 4.1 or 4.2...
Can't help beyond that...
I tought I had tried everything as well, when I found this utility over at Modaco (apparently included in the latest Dopod ROM).
Install and switch from RNDIS to Serial using the program and voila - worked like a charm for me!
Hope it helps!
After fighting with this device and my system for about 2 weeks. i noticed that my system had become so unstable that it wont' accept any new hardware. I tried installing a new 3COM network card and mostly 3com NIC's dont' require drivers however my system poped a window stating can't find drivers and put the device in system not working properly status.
so then i decided to format my computer and after the format, installed service pack 2 for xp and tried ACTIVE SYNC. without a problem it worked fine.

are you using the beta Vista? you need to download the software call windows mobile device center.
Hi, I'm useing Vista Ultimate, no beta, and I still have MDC, but when I connect PPC Vista try to search and download some drivers without success and it doesn't allow me to sync. Previously I was using MDC with HTC P3600 with no problem...
Help

have you try connect your p3600 and see whether it sync?
I can't test P3600 because I gave it away. Here it is what I get when I try to sync:
I don't read your language, but based on what you've said, try checking windows update, while your athena is connected. Perhaps, there are files for you to download after you connect. I have Vista Ultimate as well, and the drivers did install when I first synced, so you should be able to have them too.
Really I dont' know what could it be. However the message window say that:
it's necessary to install GENERIC RNDIS DRIVER
What the hell!!!!
Now I'm trying under XP and I have no problem...what could it be? Any suggestion?

I'm using Vista Business with Dopod U1000 and it runs flawlessly.
But I was getting Hell with Dopod 900 WM6 and Vista synchronization. So much problems, bugs, and inconsistencies.
Ohhh, thats what it says. Microsoft supply's in most cases generic remote NDIS drivers for at least USB, so vendors won't have to create their own specific drivers (or so I've read, anyway ). Do you run Vista 64? I've heard of 'RNDIS driver missing' issues with Vista 64. You may also want to check your startup disk you received with your Athena. I realize you use WMDC, but there may the RNDIS drivers bundled with Activesync, that you may be able to pull out. Just a thought, and other than that, I'm not sure what else to say, except look on the net. Good luck, I can only imagine how frustrating this must be for you.
Just to let you know i also run Vista Ultimate 64, and uses WMDC, the first time i connect my DOPOD U1000, it install the driver straight away without any problem, then i can start sync with no problem.

I'm running Vista 32. About startup disk it could only install Activesync and really I can't fiugure out how to extract drivers needed. About net solution, Vista couldn't find drivers on line...
off topic question to mystic blue..

thanks..it looks interesting your UI..
Here are a few screenshots. Using Wisbar Advance 2, Wisbar Advanced Desktop, Weather Panel, and Pocketbreeze.
UHm very very OT...please some advice about my problem related to this post will be welcome...
It seems that it cant recognize device...
I Found solution!!!
It's a WMDC bug that start to find RNDIS drivers in wrong folder. So all I had to do was to force it finding drivers in correct folder: C:/windows
Now I can sync!!!
Here it is reference...in italian

Got mine working with 64bit windows vista. just deleted that file.
YOU ROCK!!!
YOU ARE THE MAN!!!! You don't have an Idea of how many hours I spend searching a solution for get my htc wizard recognized, your last comment on force the driver search on c:\windows solve my problem too...
But not also with my phone even with a lot of hardware that I can't make get recognized...
Vista seems to be a real pain in.... anyways I don't know how many research I have left but, I have two vista x32 home premiun edition computers one made by gateway and the other by samsung.
And I notice that the samsung one doesn't have any problem recognizing hardware, so I entered to the device manager to see the drivers and I notices must of them run under the 6.0.6000.16389 vista_rtm .....) version and I found that this Driver Kit it's availiable on windows connect for beta testers, so I decide to download them, lets see if this driver kit solve many issues with my gateway.
New Version WMDC 6.1 is available!
New version is available in Microsoft website,you can download freely and install!
It should solve most of the problems!
I'm using Dopod U1000 with Vista Ultimate and WMDC 6.1 without any problem!
My only concern is I'm unable to 'reflow' pdf documents using Vista!(It was very easy with Active Sync4.5 & XP)
Any idea to overcome this problem?
plz share!

Hi all,
I try to connect my Xda 2 with PC but I getting sync problemss,
I have Microsoft activsync version 4.5 and I getting following message.
“Cannot verify the version of Activesync on your device, a program such as firewall may b blocking a port activesync uses to connect to device, or you may need to upgrade to more recent version of activesync on your pc”
I uninstalled and downloaded version 4.2 and then getting message only “ Microsoft activesync version is not appropriate with my device”
I am a bit fedup now because I try to solve this problem from last few days.
thank you.
Soha
It won't work, if you have Vista installed on your pc.Neither 4.2 not 4.5.
I have windows xp on PC.
You must shut down firewall when connecting or installing programs via ActiveSync.. I used to have the same problem.. Sorry for my english..
Hi. Help me please! I have got x1 but i haven't got a cd. But i want to update my rom, but it is working on Active sync. The problem : my combuter doesn't know the devce, so i can't update my rom and i can't upload Wm 6.5 Please help me. Thanks
use another combuter
switch x1 in drive mode
There is absolutely no need for the original CD, i have one but i have never put in the the computer, i don't know even what's on it
I use my X1 with 2 computers, a Vista and an XP Pro, both recognized the x1 with no special drivers, activesync ok.
to update the ROM, check the X1 ROM forum here, there is a method without PC (the MicroSD method), which i use and is very fast and easy.
Does anyone know whether there are any prog that allow usb host on the xperia? I want to plug my hard drive into it w/o using a computer
It doesn't exist simply becuase xperia doesn't has the hardware to be a usb host.
so
So, thank you for all, but my problem is still. So, I've got windows xp and x1, the usb driver connect is very godd, it is working, but if i choose the Active sync the xp doesn't know the device. I don't know why. Should i have a driver or another program ? I want to update my rom and Wm 6.5. Please help
