No connection to vista pc after wm6 update - MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 ROM Development

Hi guys,
great work! Much appreciated!
Only one problem here:
After upgrading my ba to wm6 under vista (yes, i read _and_ understood the wiki) it is not possible to connect via usb/cradle.
I downgraded and upgraded again - with no errors at all. Nothing. Same Prob. I checked the wmdc-settings. usb-con is checked. Several soft/hardreset and reboots so far. When I put the ba in the cradle the usb-sound sounds and thats all. Not even a mobile device in the devicemanager...
H E L P !
A PPC with no sync is not good!
THX

see if your BA is set up correctly
1. using file explorer, click on windows/async.lnk
2. choose menu/connections/
3. tick on synchronize all PC's using this connection, and choose "USB"

when i try to locate the async.lnk it has - as every file in this folder - a memory-chip-icon. Taping on it brings a error screen reading:
Code:
async.asy##
The file 'async' cannot be opened.
(Clicking on the 'Album'-Memory-chip-icon starts 'Album'... crazy!)
So I clicked on the Acrivesync-icon under programs and checked the connection-settings. Everything fine.
Any more Ideas...

Jipiee!
I just reinstalled WMDC - and viola!
Pfft! That one took hours to figure out!
So - Thanks a lot!

Activesync Very Weird Problem.. Help!

Hi to all,
I have a very strange problem with the connection with activesync.
When i got the Qtek 2020, i was able to syncronise on the USB cradle easily.
After some time i decided to connect via bluetooth.
No problems there!
Activesync is working excellent via bluetooth!
But..
Now i cannot connect via USB !!!!!
I tried a fresh install on another PC of activesync (even the new version from MS), but nothing! The activesync icon is always grey! it cannot connect.
Windows find the USB cradle and the PPC OK, but nothing more.
The cradle and the PPC port must be working because i see that the battery is charging when i have it cradled.
In the PPC settings options--options i have the USB selected.
Any ideas??
TIA
try running
\windows\repllig.exe
and then put the device in the cradle

Sorry for hijacking, but I also have a problem with ActiveSync.
I previously used WM2003SE ROM2.06 (the one modified by ZeroExtreme). Then I took the plunge coz I couldn't resist trying out WM2005. The upgrade went fine, but then ActiveSync started acting weird. It synchronizes, but it stays minimized, no matter what I do. When I right-click on the taskbar tray (BTW I'm running WinXP SP2) and click on "open activesync", it opens, but again, stays minimized so I cannot get into the options or tools. I got pissed off so I rreverted back using XdA2JoJo and toenailed's Final version (the exe file). The update went fine. Naturally, I removed a ActiveSync 4 and installed AS 3.8 It was installed fine, and it recognizes my device, but it can't sync. It says connected but when I try opening AS it give me nothing. it doesn't even prompt me for a new partnership, even though I already deleted all previous partnerships. When I cchoose to "explore device" by right-clicking the taskbar icon, it gives me like a communication error and tells me to reset my PPC. I did, but still to no avail. I uninstalled and reinstalled AS3.8 and even AS3.7 - same problem. I searched the forum tried running replog.exe on my Xda2, nothing. Tried deleting everything including manually uninstalling AS by deleting its registry files - same problem. When I install AS4, it synchronizes alright, but again, AS4 won't open, it just stays minimized.
Sorry for a very long first post, and thank you for bearing with me. Please help me guys. Thanks in advance!
I had a similar problem. the answer:
Re-install activesync 4 WITHOUT the cradle or usb cable attached to the computer. plug it all in after the installation.
hope that helps.

It's not in my Windows folder!
I'm running Windows XP SP2
Activesync 3.8 is very slow... It actually stops responding whenever I dock my device - then starts working after a few minutes!
I thought this might fix my problem, but I can't find the executable anywhere!!!

Same problem here guys ... anyone can help ???
hi guys
when I tried to downgradte to version 3.8 form 4.0 I had the sam problem,
but then I just deleted everything including registry keys, and I reinstalled 4.0 ( not 3.8), and It works great now
Activesync Problem
Still the same here. I can't be the only one who has thes same minimized activesync.
No matter what I do i just can;t get it to maximize.
Help please.
Tried uninstalling deleteing registry keys. The only thing ive been able to do is a system restore. and of course i'm left with 3.8
Help
solution !!!
I met exactly the same problem some days ago. The issue resulted from the undeleted DLL files in folder "\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft shared\NoteSync Forms".
You can find a install log file named "wcesetup.log" in the ActiveSync installation folder, in which it reccored everthing copied/replaced during installation. Some DLL were not copied/replaced, due to previous installation.
Just remove the DLL files which were not installed correctly. Then re-install, your problem should by solved.
Hopefully it's helpful.
Sorry for the late update. I solved my problem - I reinstalled windows! Well, apparently I had no choice for I already tried everything I could find in the forums.
installed activesync 4.0 due to curiosity.
failed to sync.
tried to re-install 3.8, but activesync failed to "pop-up" during startup. failed to maximize as well. indicates "Connected" at system tray.
it is such a great thing we have forums and threads like these.
after spending hours of trying to figure out what's wrong, it only just took me a few minutes to read this thread and fix the prob!
deleted files using WCESETUP as reference. some files didnt want to be replaced since they are "version 4.0.4343" and source file is older (from activesync 3.8 ). whew.
Still don't work
U said u deleted some files using 'wcesetup' can u explain yourself. I tried the above deleteing dll in nsync folder. That didn;t work.
Please this just keeps going and going and i need to fix it. And i don;t fancy reloading my machine to complete it
Thanks in advance
ok i can give some info
remove activesync from you pc
remove the XDA from the cradle
and use taskman to stop wcesmgr.exe and wcescomm.exe
go to control panel and remove activesync
restart pc
go to program files\microsoft activesync and delete all fire there or (if you have pocket pc apps instaled from the desktop backup it cos all cabs are there)
then if your xda as BUZmobile 2005 you MUST use activesync4
else activesync 3
dont use any type of anti-virus/firewall when using activesync4 cos it will prevent a good connection
after that install it again
for activesync4 is better to have outlookXP (outlook2003) and open it i did have some problems sync notes with it closed
well post what appened
Guys, I have a new problem now. I flashed my Xda to WM2005 again, using Buzz's ver. 1.6a
Activesync 4 (build 4343) installed fine but now, when I conect my Xda2, AS opens alright, but it doesn't prompt for a new partnership. Intead, the icon keeps on spinning and then I get an error on my device: "Unable to obtain a server-assigned IP address. Try again later or enter an IP address in Network settings." Please help...
I somehow made it sync! But now I'm back to the same problem in the first post! Now ActiveSync stays minimized and I cannot get it maximized! Please...
Try to disable windows firewall ... solved my activesync (via usb) problem

Agreed... But the USB Switch is still useful, cause now syncing is instantanous, although I repair the ActiveStync instead of soft reset, cause even a Hard Reset doesn't work...

ActiveSync via Bluetooth link [solution]

I find this solution for running ActiveSync connected thru BT via one click. I tried it on my MDA Compact and it works.
Hope it helps.
http://www.mtekk.com.au/Forums/tabid/56/postid/14926/view/topic/Default.aspx
On the Pocket PC...
1. ActiveSync / Tools / Options... / Options... (yes options twice)
2. "When cradled Enable PC sync using this connection" 'Bluetooth
3. Startup an ActiveSync connection as you normally would...
4. Now setup a shortcut to the program "windows\repllog.exe" into the Start menu. To do this
a. open up Explore in ActiveSync
b. Go into My Pocket PC
c. Go into Windows folder
d. Find repllog.exe and right click and select copy
e. Go into the Start Menu folder (within Windows folder)
f. Right click, paste shortcut - rename to something like ActiveSync Direct
Back on the Pocket PC
5. Gracefully disconnect ActiveSync.
6. Start / Settings / Buttons
7. Choose Button 4
8. Set the button assignment as ActiveSync Direct (or whatever you called it above) and click OK
9. Reset your Pocket PC and wait about 15 seconds for everything to get loaded (esp. Bluetooth which takes a little while).
10. Press the top left side button. Voila! Easy!
If you get the ActiveSync - "Port Not Available" message, it just means that Bluetooth hasn't loaded yet. Tap OK, check that Bluetooth is activated and if so, try again.
Thanks for the post. Ive been having trouble getting this to work however.

Im using WM5, and firstly i dont have the option..option menu and secondly when i try to paste repllog it tells me that the file is copy protected or something like that.
Any ideas???
Help appreciated.....
Try to use Resco File Explorer instead of M$ Explorer. When you 'right click' on Windows/repllog.exe, there is 'Send To...' -> 'Start Menu as Shortcut' option in menu.

remove your stack from PC, then delete all com ports except 1 & 2 , use buttons windows + break & install stack again!

Cingular 8525 Sync Problem

I have an 8525 running WM6 AT&T version. It is not recognized by my PC.
It has been running fine until the Battery died 2 weeks ago. After that I can not sync. My PC does not recognize the device. The USB Cable and connection works since my portable USB hard drive works on the same connection. I have re-formatted my PC and installed Activesync 4.5. Active Sync 4.5 is the version I have been using for over 3 months. The phone has been Hard Reset. The phone works with the exception of the Sync.
Any ideas?
flash it with another rom, that isnt an official update for your device, i.e. the o2 rom update,then see if it syncs? if that works flash it back with the at&t rom. I had this problem with my hermes(mda vario II) when i flashed the at&t wm6 rom but as soon as i flashed with the o2 rom it synced fine, even with vista
Thanks for the reply. But my PC does not sync at all and I do not have access to another one at the moment so I can't flash another ROM.
It was working up to a week ago.
if u haven't already, then make sure 'enable advanced network functionality' is unchecked on device.
Happened to me too for a minute....
I d\l ActiveSync 4.5 again and reinstalled... all was good.
Try that before smashing computer...
Guess something went wrong... 4.5 worked fine then I decided to flash the radio again. Frustrated me to no end. But reinstalling AS4.5 worked for me.
Update:
I tried reinstalling ActiveSync. Did not fix the problem.
Funny thing is that the USB plug will charge the unit but I can't Sync. It won't recognize the device. Another funny thing is that the USB on the phone does not turn on. Does look like a hardware issue then?
Troubleshooting 101... I'd try a different cable first. Then a different USB port (back, front) of the PC. Then I'd try a different computer. I'd be relatively surprised if it turns out to be the phone - but... Possible, I suppose.
right click on my computer and click manage, then click on the device manager on the top left window and a list of devices will appear on the right.
If your ppc is connected unplug it, wait a few seconds then plug it back in and you will see the screen of your devices change. If you get a unknown device or device with and exclamation mark in a yellow triangle then right click on it and click remove wait for the confirmation that it has been removed then unplug the device and wait a few seconds then plug it back it again.
If all that is useless in that it doesnt even show as an unknown device then check the universal serial bus controllers section by clicking on the + to the right of it to expand the tree and check in there if there are any unknown devices and remove them.
If after all that it still fails right click on the ruu exe file and click extract to ruu_filename and extract the contents of the file to the said folder then open the folder and inside is another exe file call ruu_inside.exe right click on that and extract that the same way by right clicking on it and click extract to ruu_filename then open that folder and rename the RUU_signed.nbh to hermimg.nbh get a blank sd card format it in the device so nothing is on it then copy the hermimg.nbh to the card. Then enter bootloader by pressing top left side button top right side button and camera button at the same time as you reset with the stylus and it will update from the sd card

I tried this, reinstalled activesync, then it FINALLY WORKED. Thanks!
My activesync has been broken for a couple of days. I am pretty OCD so I have been on a warpath to fix it.
On a positive note, I couldn't get the new ATT rom to load, so I did everything else - I now have SIM and CID unlocked phone with vp3G's rom and I am liking it very well!
i had the same problem..i just un-installed activesync 4.5 and re-installed it. Then installed the new AT&T rom (WM6). i had the schaps verison on their before but it was giving me hell and after i replaced it with the AT&T version all is well...
OMG!!! I was freaking over this. New ATT WM6 ROM installed, was a bear but got it synched to AS 4.5 at work..but could not explore. Came home, and nothing I tried would even let me sync on my home pc! Note, this PC has been syncing WM Devices for over 5 years now, I am no newb to them!
I was even getting the "USB does not recognize this device" error! WTF!!!!!!!
After uninstalling and re-installing AS many times, cleaning the registry, doing a Hard Rest to the device...all to no avail....until I searched in here:
Quote:
if u haven't already, then make sure 'enable advanced network functionality' is unchecked on device.
That fixed it!!!! Why? I have no f'ing idea. And curse ATT/MS for having it enabled!
First try and I was able to connect , synch, explore....viola!!!
You should also mentioned where to find it:
You can find that Fubar setting by going to Settings/Connections/USB to PC
