This is driving me nuts. My PDA was running slow so I tried installing the Ruu Wizard 2.17 ROM. It installed, everything seemed fine but I could not Sync with AcitveSync. In fact it will not even recognize the mobile device. It sets it up as a Windows Network ( but I can't access the PDA). I've tried hard resets and reinstalling ActiveSync with no luck. ActiveSync says it cannot detect it. This problem is keeping me from reinstalling the original ROM. Does anyone know how to get AcitveSync to work on this thing? Or can I somehow reinstall the old ROM without AcitveSync? Thanks in advance.

Sounds like you are using activesync 4,
try upgrading to Activesync 4.1 (avaliable on Microsofts website)
this should fix your problem
Cheers
Steve
I checked and I am using 4.1, still no go. Are there any other Sync programs out there?

I can't figure out why AdaptROM cannot connect to my XDA. I am running Active Sync 3.7 on Windows XP pro. I have Norton Anti-Virus and several other applications that are always running. I have tried disabling all of them and it didn't make any difference. I am running the new T-Mo WME2003 and the new 6.4 radio stack on my SX-56. It syncs just fine with the PC and has a pairing relaitionship set up.
Neither AdaptRom or any of the .exe upgrade programs, nor Mobipassword can connect to my XDA. Anyone have any ideas why this might be? I have tired using a serial cable and the USB cradle and changing the connection settings. When I originally upgraded it way back when to the ATTWS SX-56 PPCE2002 rom it worked just fine. I hadn't tried it since.
The only thing I can think of is a registry setting being hosed up. I am going to try uninstalling active sync and reinstalling and see if that makes a difference.
Suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
I tried removing and reinstalling Ative Sync and it didn't have any effect. Both programs show an Active Sync error cannot connect to device.
It's as if something must have the port tied up.

I upgraded to the 4.00.10 rom on my xda but I can't get either adaptrom or Programme A to run so that I can downgrade the device or reflash it.
Any help would be appreciated as I don't have access to an sd card writer.

I had the same problem U had before. the best solution is to buy a SDcard reader to do the job.

Good luck :wink:
I noticed that the 3.x CE developer environment also cannot connect
to a 2003 device.

Could this mean that some supporting files are missing from the T-Mobile rom? If somebody could get a list of all the files that are different between the 4.00.05 and the 4.00.10 roms then it might point to something...
You can try another hard reset of your xda. That happened to me about a month ago and a hard reset fixed it. Unfortunately I had to create a new relationship etc.. - Jim
I just upgraded TMO radio stack to 6.24.00, works flawlessly. Tested the RS with calls, web connections, incoming call while on web ... perfect.
However, ActiveSync will not recognize a partnership with my PDA now. Reverts to Guest every connection.
Reinstalled ActiveSync ... no luck. Soft reset PDA ... no luck. Tried it on a WinXP-HE and Win2K computer, same on both.
Have searched forum & seen a few enteries on this subject but no solutions. Running TMO ROM 4.00.21 & TMO RS6.24.00.
Anybody had this issue & successfully resolved it?
Yeap been there seen that but had forgotten about those problems until I read your post! :wink:
Try downgrading back to 3.7, my sig states what I ended up doing to fix it for me! :wink:
Also you might try turning the device off before you put it in the cradle
so times that helped if I remember correctly.
HTH
Resolved problem by uninstalling ActiveSync 3.7.1, restart Windows, reinstall ActiveSync 3.7.1 and it detects new USB hardware, starts the Partnership wizard and things are okay.
I am having a problem with Activesync 3.8.
It tells me my device (MDA Compact) is connected, but when I try to explore it I get the following message!
"Critical communication services have failed to start. Try resetting the mobile device, and then connect again."
I have tied to remove it and re-load it.
Any relevant help would be most useful
I am having the same problem.
I tried using ActiveSync 4.1 recently, only to find it can only be used with the new Windows Mobile 5.0. I uninstalled it and reinstalled 3.8. Ever since then I have had this issue. I've tried removing it again, rebooting, then reinstalling. I've tried downloading a fresh copy of 3.8 in case it was corrupt... All to no avail. I can't even open ActiveSync properly. It appears in teh task bar and can connect to devices, but it will not sync, and I can't browse teh device.

Activesync 4.1 is not just for WM5, I am running 4.1 on my Jam with WM2003SE and it works like a charm.
Ive always been able to connect my S100 to my PC and Active Sync has automaticly started up asking me what kind of connection I want (Guest or Standard) But now it wont work.
It still charges through the USB and when Windows finds the device but Active synd doesnt. (Im running latest version from MS)
I've un- and reinstalled Active Sync
I've tried different USB-ports
I've tried different USB-Cables
I've tried different computers (wont work there either)
I've rebooted the device
It must be something in my S100
Please help!
Thanx in advance

Everything all right
Are u using the same version of Active sync that came bundled with your device?
If yes TRY THE UPDATED VERSION
If NO, Try the PREVIOUS VERSION.
maybe there is something wrong in one of the connecting Pins In the cradle/Socket of the cable
How do I update software in the device, when I cannot sync?
Ive tried different software in my PC. None worked.
Im not sure its a HW-failure in the cable, since I tried different ones..
It could be in the device, Im not sure how to check though.
/n
What version of ActiveSync has worked for you up until now?
Try an older version of AS:
3.8: http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/downloads/activesync38.mspx
Oh I solved it....by making a hard reset - SURPRICE!
What a crap device this is...
That almost always does the trick....sometimes my MDA II will act really weird and a soft or even a hard reset will fix a seemingly incompatible app.
I have been trying to sincronize my S200 Qtek but it is impossible. I have made several hard and soft resets and tried with three different computers. I have installed 4.1, 4.2 and 4.5 beta versions of ActiveSync, but it is always the same: ActiveSync seems to turn on but no sincronization initialize when I connect my S200 to the USB port.
I have also made a format and reinstall windows XP but I can't syncronize information... please help me!
I have also tried to install "USB killer" without success...
Did you disable Win XP firewall? You have to disable it or any other firewall that may be installed.
If that solves your problem search MS site for how to authorise ActiveSync for your firewall.
Yes, in fact when I reinstalled windows I didn't install Norton because of the firewall. I have also unactivated windows firewall... but no sincronization occurrs
Maybe you could try another USB Cable? Or try to sync using Bluetooth?
Can't sync my S200 either...
Don't think it's cable because it is brand new :'(
Have you tried to upgrade to the latest activesync right after the installation of windows? (found here)
And perhaps some overactive antivirus programs can bug up syncing too sometimes. Did the installation of new hardware go well after you plug in your device?
When you plug in, did nothing happen or was there a small screen saying it was getting information from the phone? If yes, were you able to setup a connection (guest etc) and after that it didn't want to sync?
Got this issue resolved the fault was some tweaking I did... See, I use fixed IP with my router so I disabled the DHCP client service on services.msc... So activesync could't get the right adress from the prophet... Still don't know how I manage to make that assumption about this problem, but gladly I did
Hope this help other people with similar problem...
