Problems updating ROM with Vista - 8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General

Anyone having trouble performing ROM updates with Vista? Every time I attempt t run the ROM Update Utility, Vista first pops up with the User Account Control box and I select Allow. Next the ROM Update Utility comes up, I get all of the way through, the phone goes into the BootLoader and then Vista pops up with an MFC Application Has Stopped Working error. Lukily I have an XP machine that I can still use to run updates but I would like to use my Vista machine as it is my primary machine.

Works better than mine!
If you installed RC1 from fresh, and not updated beta 2, then WMDC is not installed, has not yet been released as there are bugs, see this page for details.

It IS possible to sync wm5 devices with Windows Vista as describes in http://desigeek.com/weblog/amit/archive/2006/09/19/Syncing-your-mobile-with-Vista-RC1-with-WMDC.aspx (it works for me).
BUT! Did anybody have successfull tries to update ROM from Vista? I can't do it by standart way, can't do it with MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe (got 'ERROR 150 ROM UPGRADE UTILITY ERROR'), can't do it with mtty (can't choose USB, only COM). Is it avaliable another way to do ROM upgrade?
Hello!
I have installed windows Vista RC2 (x86 and built 5744) and I have a HTC Universal PPC Phone Edition.
I'm having problems installing Windows Mobile Device Center.
I've downloaded the drvupdate-x86.exe and installed it (with firewall off) and WMDC doesnt install. Only appears on installed programs Windows Mobile Device Center Driver Update.
Then, Installed wmupdate.msi and WMDC is installed.
The problem is that when I try to open the program (either from control panel icon and wmdc.exe on c:\windows\WindowsMobile\wmdc.exe) appears an error message (with debug) saying the program must close!
I don't know what else to do! I've the same problem since RC1 (5600).
PLEASE HELP!

Any one successed to syncing with Vista RTM??

Although it was working with RC2, strangely, it doesn't with RTM, the driver is installed but only the file transfere is working. I can see an icon of my JJ in computer (ex. my computer) and when click on it, i can browse the JJ ram and the storage card only, but there is no any syncing capabilities. Any one has an idea about that problem. May i am going to try the old RC1 trick:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...roductID=7C1FA894-B2C5-41BE-8D97-E145DD2A883B
Still there is no respoonse after 26 viewers, does this mean that there is no one has installed the new vista RTM release or I am asking a selly question?

Yes, I synced my HERMES with http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...6a-a72d-4aef-9663-31ce2fefbada&DisplayLang=en this tool, but sometimes don't, lot of crashes...
Just have a try:
disable any Anti-Virus and Firewall softwares.
I tried downloading the sync tools beta, but fiind it hangs outlook (2007).
I'm going to give it a try just running wirelessly and see how I get on.
The same don't know why it's not working...

I tried it, it worked, thanks. The difference is that i followed the trick mentioned above also, i added the registery key WHOS, then installed the WMDC beta program, so, will try to use the WMDC program only without the registery in another installation.
Now I sync 95% of times, I just unchecked in settings-> connections->USB to PC-> use enhanced USB
I have managed to get it working after having reflashed the rom on my phone (probably not required) and re-installing the Windows Mobile Device Centre beta 3.
I think the trick is to make sure your phone can connect to Vista OK before you install the WMDC software and then install the software with the phone connected.
Good luck
Are you also able to flash / upgrade the phone using Vista RTM and MDC beta 3? I'm not

Windows XP ActiveSync Connection Problem! :(

Yesterday i tried to upgrade rom of my Qtek S200 device. I uploader temp rom after that when it comes to installation of wm6 rom my device could not connect to my pc via ActiveSync. I have Windows XP. When i plug the device to my pc it shows an error message : ""There was a problem installing this hardware Windows Mobile-based Device" What can i do please help me...
Put the device in bootloader, and flash a new WM5 NVID ROM.
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Prophet_recovery
but i cannont connect my device with activesync when i try that it tries to find a driver. finds a driver and installs that but after that "There was a problem installing this hardware Windows Mobile-based Device" message appears and i can not connect my device to pc.
can i upgrade roms with Windows Vista?
Uninstall active sync. Restart. Re install activesync. Restart. Then put your device into bootloader. Disable connect through USB in active sync and then connect the device and PC and then try to flash a WM5 ROM.
Vista won't work with upgrading because of the drivers.
I had just write a post in my thread about this. I have the same problem intalling the device in PC.
Before I had put the actual ROM in my phone, I went to bootloader and inserted another ROM in this case an official one... right now I cannot go to bootloader . Do I have to do a HardSPL!? probably this is the solution for quaschi!
We wait for the opinion of more experienced members!

Cannot Install Windows Mobile remote adapter (WMDC) Error 800F0204

I have recently installed Windows Vista on my computer and hooked up my also newly formatted PDA HTC TyTN with WM6 and as usual i cannot get them to work together, even speak. This by usb cable.
As i connected it to Vista it popped up asking me for a driver which i chose to install when Windows update said there was an update for it.
Error messages included:
This is my greeting message as soon as i start my computer and login to Vista:

And the not so helpful error message:
http://www.premier69.com/images/stories/Capture2.JPG
If any of you would like, in order to help i can allow remote controlling of my computer.
I will offer compensation via paypal for anyone who will take the time to remote connect to my computer and fix my problem, i have been trying for a very long time now and i cant figure it out.
we can discuss level of compensation but be aware i am by no means rich.
If I understand u, try this
1- donlod Window device center from here
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...f1-e46a-4a5f-a791-09f07aaa1914&displaylang=en
choose for Windows Vista (32-bit) or (64-bit)
& let me know
I have already tried that, i downloaded the x64 version for my vista installation and i start the install file, the progressbar loads fully then retracts and the installations program self-closes. no messages or anything.
i am serious when i say i am really stumped by how my system is acting...
try installing WMDC in safe mode, sounds like a file permissions problem
yup i tried that too, it didn't even open the installation wizard.
Got same problem - fixed with changing registry permissions
hi guys,
i was battling with this for a few days after a reinstall of my laptop. updated to vista sp2 and there you go, couldnt sync and got the error.
after mucking about i saw there were some access denied errors for the registry. this is what i did to fix it:
registry key in question:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Svchost\WindowsMobile
- Right click -> Permissions -> Advanced
- Took owner ship of the registry key
- Gave the Users group Full Control.
Then in device manager:
- Uninstalled my Microsoft Mobile Remote Adapter
- Scan hardware changes
and then it installed properly and am able to sync again
aj
thank you
Thank you thank you thank you thank you thank youuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu
i have been in this issue since 2 days,and what got me crazy after i have read your post that I'm the one who restricted the access to this registry using a domain policy(I'm a network administrator) for security reasons,but i don't know why i didn't got it @ first.
I granted my self the permission and it was able to install the drivers and letting WMDC starts.
thank youuuuuuuuuuuuu again and again and again.

HTC Sync install problem & no PC Sync

Second day with my Hero and really like it so far, but;
When I tried to install HTC Sync, near the end of the install, I get,
"Generic Device Management Executable has encountered a problem and needs to close",
and wants to send a report to Microsoft, after dismissing the first one another one the same comes up, then after the install I get;
"Unable to create a device manager instance".
When I try to Sync with the PC, HTC Sync won't find the phone.
I've tried the HTC Sync that came with the phone and the latest from the HTC website with the same results.
I'm running Windows XP Home, fully up to date, anti-virus is disabled during the installation.
I have spent the best part of eight hours today searching this site and googling the problem, I've found people with the same or similar problems and still can't get it to work.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I have the same problem, tried uninstalling/reinstalling both versions, but the problem still exists.
I am also running Win XP SP3.

Me too. XP SP3.
Speaking directly to HTC gave no answers, and I gave up as I don't need to sync to outlook.
Im having problems getting HTC 2.04 to work after update.
C:\Program Files\HTC HTC Sync\Application launcher\Application Launcher.exe
This application has failed to start because the application configuration is incorrect. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem.
And no it didn´t, tried it. Has tried remove and afterwards reinstall, but still not. Connection to USB is working, but can´t sync.
Just for info, I emailed HTC yesterday and got a reply back today. I tried it, but it didn't solve the problem, good customer service from HTC though.
I've pasted it (as sent) if anyone wants to try it, god luck.
"please try the following on you PC. STart, sun, msconfig, services, "hide all Microsfot Services" then "disable all", start up, "disable all", apply, close and reboot. Try the install again in this mode with no internet connection plugged in (as your AV will be fully shut down). If this works, you can reenable evertyhing, start, run, msconfig, normal startup, apply close, and reboot."
Lol, looks like a bold move
But good idea with the services, maybe we can narrow it down.
Do you have Itunes installed? Just a wild guess now as I have it installed, maybe the Apple Sync conflicts with HTC Sync.
Im not sure if that im able to do the services thing, but i will try.
No itunes is not on, but at home im using Vista 64 with itunes and its working!
Hmm, didn´t work for me.
Hope that HTC will come with an update.
For now im using CompanionLink to sync between Lotus Notes and Google Calendar, but it will only work for 2 weeks, then i have to pay.
Didn't work for me either. I tried disabling all not needed services.
@SharDK Do you have the problem in Win XP SP3 too?
@Lupus77
Yes its Win XP Sp3
Sry i wrote fail in my nick, its Shark, but nevermind
New reply from HTC.
"Are you able to try again in Safe Mode? "
Tried but still no good.
Is anyone here who got the HTC Sync working with Win XP SP3?
Phone not being recognized by the HTC Sync program
I had no problem installing the HTC Sync software BUT it does not recognize my phone. Yes I am running Windows XP Service Pack 3. I have read the manaul carefully and done everything they say, including enabling USB debugging. But to no avail. I also have tried both the new and old versions of the software.
PLEASE HELP!! I need to update my ROM
Weird, since before upgrae i had no problem connecting to sync either in Vista nor Xp SP3.
But after, then XP SP3 gives problems.
@Salmanbodla
When you connect to XP with USB, do you mount the SD card!
If you can here´s driver for XP http://www.pdauser.dk/files/driver.zip
When you connect, go to Device manager and look for ADB and try update the driver. Even try connect the Hero 2-3 times mounting the USB, that way i got the ADB in device manager. But then Sync failes, but had no problem before update.
I wrote HTC yesterday, so hoping that they will come with a solution.
Now they returned an email, writting to me that since i have a Danish Win XP, i have to install sync in Program Files/HTC/HTC sync
Im sry but im not using a Danish XP, so therefor its in the right place already.
Looks like HTC ´dosn´t have a solution for sync, very bad, since i have to use it to sync Lotus Notes at work.
Latest from HTC. Want NFO logs.
Latest Email from HTC:-
"HI STephen,
We are trying to replicate this issue here, are you able to send us the NFO logs?
Many hanks
MIke"
It's nice to see they have an interest in the problem.
Now the question. How do I send them the NFO logs? I'm a bit lost here.
Just wanted to add my "me too". I'm experiencing the same problem.
It used to work but since I reinstalled XP (serious crash) I get this error when trying to start HTC Sync:
C:\Program Files\HTC HTC Sync\Application launcher\Application Launcher.exe
This application has failed to start because the application configuration is incorrect. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem.

The only difference between my old and new install of XP is that my old install was SP2 and the new install SP3.
Me too
I cant get HTC sync to work on Windows VIsta. Had Hero for 2 weeks. But cannot connect with HTC sync. I only need this for ROM upgrade... not for syncing.
Stephen did you get an answer from the htc support.
I have the same problem.
Has anyone had luck fixing the issue with HTC Sync refusing to run because 'the application isn't configured properly'?
It worked fine for me about 2 weeks ago with Win XP Service Pack 3, but doesn't anymore. I'm not entirely sure what I've changed since. I went on Windows Update and downloaded these patches (Update for Root Certificates [September 2009] (KB931125), Security Update for Windows Media Format Runtime 9, 9.5 & 11 for Windows XP SP 3 (KB968816), Security Update for Microsoft XML Core Services 4.0 Service Pack 2 (KB954430), Security Update for Windows XP Service Pack 3 (KB952069), Security Update for Windows XP with Windows Media Format Runtime 9.5 and 11 (KB941569)); I changed which SATA port on my mobo the hard drive connected to; and that's about all I know of. Everything else would have been using programs already installed, which I had used before trying to use HTC sync.
I'm not sure which version of HTC Sync I used before, as it may have been the one on the SD card when the phone shipped, or it could have been downloaded from the website. It was probably the one on the SD card. Yesterday I tried uninstalling it after the error message and reinstalling v2.0.4 downloaded from the HTC website, but still no luck.
So, has anyone had any success with this?

Any chance you can uninstall those updates to see if they are the offending items?
