Hi to all!!
I have a 1605 Vodafone (VPA COmpact III) and my Vista x64 don't recognize my phone... so I can not synchronize with any app. I need to install apps and share information with Outlook, etc... anyone have a driver to use?
Thanks in advanced.
Download the Windows Mobile device center driver fr vista x64 and you'll be ok
Downloaded & installed but my XDA is showed "unknow" in hardware devices so I can not connect with it... any other idea? thanks for your reply.
Try playing with the USB-to-PC options under Settings... Connections... I've found that disabling "advanced networking functionality" does the trick...
or try connect device in back USB on PC, not from front, or use shorten cable. It could be not driver related problem.
Hello,
Just upgraded my 8525 to the latest and greatest ROM. Well ... greatest should really be within quotes!!!
I'm having 2 problems ...
#1) I cannot use my phone thru DUN. I select Internet Sharing. Disable ActiveSync on my PC. Select PC Connection as USB and Network Connection as My ISP GPRS. When I connect the USB cable, I immediately get a message box that New Hardware has been found (Generic RNDIS). Windows (XP-SP2) then prompts me to install the drivers. I click Next but it does not find them and throws an error that Drivers could not be found. I've searched the internet and HTC sites in vain, but cannot find anything that helps.
#2) When I connect my device using ActiveSync (4.5), I cannot get the device to use ActiveSync as a pass-thru for the internet. This results in any calls made to the internet to fail.
Any help would be appreciated. I'm back on the road on Tuesday and need to get this resolved.
Thanks

Mike,
I had tried that earlier today but it did not work. I unzipped the file and pointed the "Find New Hardware" wizard to that directory location. When I click Next it searches and finally returns with "The hardware was not installed because the wizard cannot find the necessary software".
I'm confused. Aren't the Remote NDIS drivers part of the ActiveSync install? What am I missing here?

I have exactly the same problem, and I still didn't find any solution
I have exactly the same problem, and I still didn't find any solution
I also have the same Problem but a different situation
I would like to tether with my phone which I can do with no problem on most computers. However I have a corporate laptop that I cannot install activesynch on...So i just need the driver to install when I connect my phone via USB.
So i get the same error as the guys above me...so any fix to this problem that does not involve installing activesync would be greatly appreciated.
thanks in advance

Hi everybody,
Yesterday I had the same problem, but I resolved it.
First, install Activesync 4.5.
Second, when you plug your device and it ask you for the driver generic RNDIS driver, you can choose the place of this driver (don't choose automatic).
So point the "Find New Hardware" wizard to that directory location :
C:\Program Files\Microsoft ActiveSync\Drivers
Then Ok (or next I don't remember)! After windows'd install alone the good driver.
Enjoy your synchronization!
Bye bye
Upgrade ActiveSync

When I used ActiveSync 3.7, this version can not recognize Generic RNDIS. I’d upgrade this version into ActiveSync 4.5, its work.

Generic RNDIS Error for Windows 2003
Hi Guys,
I am also facing the same problem but I am using windows 2003 server.
I am using HTC Touch phone. Please help me out with some solutions.
Thanks

I had this same problem with my HTC Touch Cruise. Here's what solved it:
Go to Settings > Connections > USB to PC
Uncheck Enable advanced network functionality
Then the computer sees your mobile and sync begins (at least for me).
Something worth trying...
If you look at the driver settings for "Windows Mobile Device" under WinXP it shows a file called:
C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\rndismpx.sys
I'm wondering if the rndismpx.sys file is all one needs to use to install the driver so that WinXP will see the WM phone as a viable device and therefore allow you to use it's Internet Connection Sharing function to give the PC a data connection to the net?

Ok I too had this problem, and refuse to use active sync as it always muck up my special clock settings. This is what fixed it for me.
As i DO have active sync installed on my desktop system, and taking the advice of the persom who posted above, i just copied the "DRIVERS" folder onto a disk (From \Programme files\Microsoft Activesync), took that to the laptop i needed to install on, and installed the driver manually, pointing to the DRIVERS folder on th CD i just made. All installed, and "Pinging" nicely!

Yep, that did the trick for me. And this was after spending two hours on live chat with AT&T which was useless.
Thanks. Who knows how long I would have been dinking along looking for a clue.

This wasn't even the least bit helpful.
The article just tells you to install ActiveSync or WMDC.
I'm having sam problem with windows 7 64bit, and couldn't find solition, can t upgrade my rom...
Please note that with the "old" notebock, with vista too, i have use the Hermes without problem.
Just connect via usb and all works fine.

But if i try to sync the pc dont reconize the ppc...
welcom to the VISTA world
I've had nothing but issues with Vista and WM6 on my Hermes.
The few things I can suggest.
1) As you say Disable the Advanced networking....
2) Connect directly to a USB port, not through a hub.
3) Try soft-resetting your phone between connection attempts.
4) Remove associations between Vista and your phone.
I find that the first time I connect it everything's good, but on subsequent attempts it's hit and miss.
If you are using vista, there's an update for Windows Mobile software on the microsoft website.
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/devicecenter.mspx
you need to install 6.1 for it in order for WM6 to work with vista.

If he is using the same version of WM Device center on both computers and i am assuming he is, then i doubt it will fix the problem by downloading the latest version as i have that version installed on both my pc's.
I had the same problem, where windows just detected the device as an unknown device and therefore wouldnt let me sync.
right click on my computer and click manage, then plug in your device and see if you have any unknown devices appearing if you do right click on it and click uninstall then unplug the device and wait 10 seconds then plug it back in, this solved it for me. Although i still have to do this every so often. But at least it allows me to sync with both my pc's
When i try to connect my HTC Kaiser to active sync on laptop then ppc show me this message:
"to synchronize this device you must install activesync 4.5 or higher on your desktop computer"
The problem is that i have AS4.5 on laptop. I tried to reintall it but this not solve my problem. Any ideas?
do you have xp or vista ?
I have XP...
After fresh install you need to start ActiveSync manual.
Go to Start, then run ActiveSync.
Make sure wcescomm.exe is running.
Problem is solved. It was firewall problem. When i configured rules for rapimgr.exe file then problem goes away. Thans for your help.
With the main PC all works as it is suposted (Vista). The laptop also Vista does not recognize the X1 to make a partnership. The X1 is connected as visible in explorer. What can be done that a partnership can be setup (the second one) Please advise, and thanks for any assistance.
(almost) the same problem
Hello,
I'm having almost the same problem.
Last friday I flashed my ROM from T-mobile Dutch branded to unbranded SonyEricsson R2A Dutch ROM. After that I set up a partnership with a laptop, no problem.
But now I can't set up any partnership with WMDC anymore on my Vista Ultimate SP1 computer. I keep getting a warning 'problem with connection, please reconnect your device and try again'.
I tried everything (like hard reset, reinstalling WMDC, checking Windows services needed for sync etc...).
Thanks in advance for any help!!
Same problem here!
Yesterday I updated ROM to R2.... and at first i have seen no problems!! But then i noticed that i can't connect my X1 to my notebook (Vista OS)!!
I checked the configurations, they were ok on X1! Windows Mobile Device Center won't recognize the device.... and I'm !
I and many others, would appreciate some little help with this!!!
Thank you!!!
((ooo, i tried reinstalling WMDC, but I had no positive results!!))
Goto Settings > Connections > USB to PC and uncheck Enable faster data synchronization
