Vista won't connect to 3G - Shift General

Ok so I've liberated SnapVUE on my new Shift and for the life of me i cannot figure out how to get the Vista side of things to work with EDGE/3g.
Win Mobile connects just fine.. syncs with outlook.. etc. And wifi works on the Vista side.. but no 3G.
Any help? Im using ATT and wap.cingular as my EDGE isp.

When the 3G in WM side in on, after switch on the Vista, you need to wait about 1 to 2 min to start up the 3G on Vista.

I had the same problem.
You have to go to the device manager and look under network-devices. There you must see a RSID mobile "something" device (this is your modem 3G) if you had turned it on in communication manager. I activated it and since then, I have a working Internet connection via 3G if I turn on the Modem in communication manager. Just try it.
If it's not working, uninstall this device and reboot. Vista should search and install the drivers correctly.
good luck

I don't have any such driver in vista's device manager. Not sure what to do!

Had same problem
i had same problem that on vista side wouldnt connect even thou the communications manager said connected..first i put it down to just poor signal..i did notice that there was no signal indicated on vista side in the comms manager..is yours the same ?
anyway finally get fed up with it so i contact htc..tried few things..didnt work..eventually they told me to hard reset vista saide (reload software by pressing F3 button when firing it up..did this now works perfect !!
i had to reload everything back onto vista but hey..it was nothing compared to finally getting it to work correctly

No, in the connection manager i have 2-3 bars on vista. Would only being on edge matter??
Im wary of resetting vista because i put several hours into software install and config.

Dont know what i did but its working now

i spoke with htc support over this

hello i spoke to htc report regarding this issue..basically they didnt know either..finally they said hard reset vista side..which i did..guess what it started working again..but then...
i reloaded all my software again and guess what it stopped working again..took me about 5 minutes to work out...i was using zonealarm on my shift..i uninstalled it and guess what..connection worked again
so im guessing you have similar antispy/virus software which is cuasing the same problem
worth a look..hope this helps

In my case, I switched the connection from My ISP to Media Net (isp.cingular to wap.cingular) and disabled the ATT Proxy.

Frequent 3g connectivity on/off on vista side

Hi.
Anyone with same problem. I only have seen it on vista side. Working with 3g conectivity. One minute is connected with tray icon showing globe. Then 30 isnt connected with tray icon showing computers with red cross. Then again connected 3 minutes. It seems a problem between vista side and internet sharing service from snapvue. I ve seen this issue in other spanish shift. Maybe a spanish version problem? any idea?
Thanks
Not much help I know but see my thread titled 'continued vista connection problems'. Have you been using internet sharing to gain access to WM 6.0? i noticed Activesync was always starting on the snapvue side which I think is linked to the constant disconnections.
A full restore from the restore partition solved my problem and I now get a steady 3g connection.
Thanks for your response. Not alone now. Format is a solution but we should know the origin of this problem. Obviosly is related with the way connects to 3g, this is, using Internet Shared connection with snapvue...but...why suddenly activesync (client or server part) tries to connect the other side and breaks the internet shared connection? any idea?Did you install sp1? is your shift language english or other one? ( I am trying to discard sources of the problem).
pd. While I write these lines on winmo side I can listen vista side sounds (connect/disconnect each minute...)
Hi,
I did some changes and It seems (by now) the problem is solved. I ve playing with continous 3g connections. This is what I did (I dont know which one did the trick).
1) Disable activesync usb connections for both sides( I did it for vista side days ago but know I did too in snapvue size.
2) Sevice Sync bluetooth Server stopped and set manually.
3) Reset both sides
Now I ve a stable 3g connection....
Daniel
Glad you got it working. What do you do to disable Activesync on the Snapvue side?
I only noticed this problem after installing SP1 but I was working mostly with WIFI so cannot be sure there is a link.

Hi.
The problem is solved, now for sure. Open Activesync in winmo,then menu/connections and uncheck "use usb ...". I removed too the partership between both sides althought It isnt important, I think...
Thanks Daniel. Good to know incase it happens again.
Today I am having the same issue...mmm, I dont know what else I can do. I will post the events I can see in the event's viewer....

Hi Daniel - are you still having these problmes?
Hi. I didnt have that issue anymore. I removed the partership whith the device on vista side. I remove "Usb connection option" on activesync in both sides. I uninstalled "Remove NDIS Share connection" (Device Manager) on vista side and rebooted. Then on restart vista recognized again the device(Remove NDIS Shared connection) after some minutes(5-10 min) and then all worked correctly. I think the last step did the trick. But I am not free of problems. Like I told before when I resume the device and It was hibernated/suspended for a long time (several hours) the 20% of times It cant connect 3g and even I cant restart vista but keeping pressed the power button. So, by now, If my device is going to stay suspended for a long time (night) then I turn it off......
pd. When I need connect vista and snapvue I turn the phone off. I enable usb connection in both sides and use usbtools. After using the connection I undo these steps and all works correctly by now (last 3 weeks).
Ensure too that Vista hasnt setup a new Windows CE device on Device Manager. To check it open Device Manager, then "See devices by connection" and check each usb connection. If you see any Windows CE device disable it. I think both Remove NDIS Shared connection and a Windows CE Device was fighting for the same usb connection (In my case)

OK, the only bit I hadnt tried was the uninstall of the NDIS in device manager. I'll give it a go and see what happens. Thanks again for this reply!
Thanks Daniel for your detailed description on this problem, which I also have. Interesting thing is that for me it only occurs when I am on the move with my Shift. No problems when my Shift remains on my desk (like others described in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=381220&page=2 )
On your described solution: I removed the Vista/Snapvue partnership and the usb connection on both sides. But I am not able to do the next step: "Remove NDIS Share connection" in device manager, because it's not there (see attached screenshot). Does this mean it was never there, so I do not have to uninstall it? Or is there a different way to find it?
Hi.
Reset Vista to ensure It boots correctly. Then wait to be 3g connected. Once you are connected the device "Remote NDIS shared connection" should be there under network cards. Then uninstall it and reset again. Once booted you have to wait several minutes until vista detects it again and installs drivers.....
pd. And try to contact HTC. Maybe (only maybe) if HTC is reported with same problem from many people they releases a fix.....
Hi there,
That did not help at all!
Waste of time.
But thanks for the hint.
What DID help for me was closing WMDC through taskmanager.
When you just exit WMDC, task manager still shows that it is running there in the background and apperantly scanning your ports for mobile devices ore something.
I stopped it from running and have a stable connection now.

I think you only have to do it after you used WMDC. On my shift it doesnot start at boot (not anymore...) If I want to sync shift or my kaiser, I need to startup WMDC manualy.

My experiences so far.
Is it possible that it is the energy plan that is responsible for the loss of connection. I installed SP1, no problems it seemed. Today I wanted to use the 3G connection with the battery (balanced energy plan). And then it started to disconnect and to connect in small intervals. I did the routine Daniel described: uninstalled NDIS driver. Reinstalled it but connectivity problems remained.
Is it something to do with the battery powered system?
Because, as soon as stop using the battery, plugging in the power adapter again everything seems to be okay. I am not sure about it, but I think, when I use the max power option with the battery the connection stays and fails when I use the balanced energy plan.
So can it be that something in the energy plan is responsible for the loss of the connection?
Experts, does that make any sense?
I will give it some more tries.
S.
I had the High Performance powerplan on all the time......
had it to
Hi
This is a problem when sp1 is installed and you are using 3g in vista being in balanced or power save power plan. it has nothing to do with activesync and usb ports (i have never had a connection)
i called htc yesterday, they clamed they had never heard about it before, so please as many as possible call htc and tell them then maybe just maybe they would release a fix
in rhe meantime i uninstalled sp1 and everything works
In my case the solution is quite clear.
3G works in Balanced mode and in High Performance when power is plugged in. I am not so sure if it works in “Power Save” even when on power.
3G does not work when either on “Balanced” or “Power Save” when using the battery. Battery works in “High Performance” even when all the options are set like they are in “Balanced” mode.
This I found somewhere else in the forum. It is from Daniel and I guess he says the same, more of less.
Well. I ve been doing many tests and changes and I thing the sd, suspend crashes and 3g closed connections are gone.
I use equilibrated energy plan but I hadn’t any issue when ac connected so I ve modified this plan to make equivalent the behavior when not ac connected, but not success. The problems are still there. Its incredible because the configuration for ac connected/disconnected is the same I ve modified all the parameters (usb, expressPCI, , etc)
So I ve set High performance plan and I ve modified it a little bit, only screen brightness when no ac connected and now all works correctly. I start the system (no ac connected). Then I suspend / wake, hibernate/resume the system several times being ac no connected and the problems are gone. 3g connection is very stable. No crashes from standby to hibernate state. No sd missing problem. So by now I will keep in this "High Performance" modified state
pd. So It seems that a plan is compounded by customizable parameters by the user and hidden parameters)
Now, those who have not installed SP1. Is this really no issue for you? Or have you always been on power or always used “High Performance”?
Well, even when I plug in my external battery and the green light indicates that the machine has been plugged to power, even then it only works in “high performance” and not in the two other modes.
Very strange!

Poor connectivity after SP1 upgrade

First let me say that many of you that post here are much more technically savvy than I am, so please be gentle.
I upgraded my shift to with SP1 last night, and it seems as if my connection keeps connecting/disconnecting while I am using my sim card connection. The signal seems to constantly be shifting between edge, 3G, and HSDPA. The fact that the signal from the carrier is constantly shifting protocols is not really unusual, but the constant connecting and disconnecting seems to be new (since SP1).
Has anyone else experienced this? Is there a known issue? Is there a fix?
Thanks
Dean
Yes. We talked about it in two other threads. I did many things and some of them worked. Try to disable USB port on activesync (WM Side).....

Thank you for the info. I am not able to find where to disable. My WM side is still like it came out of the box BTW.
mm, ok. then you should think about enable full WM and perform that tweak (and many others)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=378234
Well, I made the WM modification, and I went into activesync and unchecked the box next to "synchronize all PCs using this connection".
Was this the right place? If so, it didn't fix my issue, but I am not sure if this is what you meant for me to do or not.
Thanks again.
Hi. Yes, that what I meant. Have you disabled same option in Vista side too?

I looked at Activesync in the CP,and didn't see where to disable it. I did see a couple of assocations there, but I didn't make any changes.
Is this the correct place to look or do I need to look someplace else?
OK... I gave up. I un-installed SP1 and everything (that I use) is back to working normally. I hope I don't have issues when I want to re-install the SP.
I did leave the more opened up version of WM6 in place though.

Grrrr. Don't really want to give up myself but I can't find any solution to this. I also disabled USB connections but still no luck.
After I removed SP1, my connection starting working ok, but I had several other issues, the worst of which that the computer would not connect again after being woke up, and it would lock up on shut down.
I reinstalled the entire operating system... I hated to, but I hadn't installed but a few programs, and I felt now was the best time.
The weird part for me was that my WM6 modification was still in tact. I didn't expect that.

That issue happens to me with and without sp1. Not always, 20% of times. Specially if the device was suspended or hibernated a long time:Sometimes when I resume the system It doesnt connect. Looking at the events viewer It seems there was a problem restoring the usb connection (It hanged) so I cant turn off Vista but Keeping pressed the power button. I hope Microsoft and/or HTC solves that problem soon
I had never had any problems with the 3G/HSDPA copnnectivity until I upgraded to SP1. Weird though, after I upgraded on Monday I restarted and tested (as I knew some of you had had issues) and all was fine. However when I booted up last night I had the connection reset every minute as some of you have reported.
Has anyone who has upgraded to SP1 NOT had these connectivity problems on the VISTA side? Perhaps this would help us work out what is different on these installs....

I haven't got any problem with the connection, all my connection works perfectly before and after i install sp1
I won't be installing SP1 again until I see clear evidence that this issue is resolved.
BTW, after SP1, If I left my Shift sitting on my desk it would never loose connection. But if I used it anywhere else, it would connect and disconnect and eventually quit working. I am talking about the radio connection. I never tried the wifi connection after I installed SP1.
Everything seems to be back to normal now since I did a complete re-install. I am gong to wait as long as it takes before I try SP1 again.

That's interesting you say that. The first day after SP1 it was on my desk and I had no problems. The problems started when I was using it sitting up on my hotel bed moving it around. Then toady I'm in the office, its on my desk and no problems again. Mmmmm not sure how this could make a difference but it is odd. Very odd.
OK, I'm now typing this on the WM side while SP1 uninstalls on the Vista side. Daniel - thanks for your solution, it does seem to work but my OCD won't alow me to accept it until the bug is fixed properly or we can work out why it seemingly affects some users and not others. I will contact HTC tomorrow and see if they are aware.
Have the people who it has not affected liberated their shift?
Have they done something to disable USB connection as has Daniel?
Either way it really annoyed me - the S in SP1 is for sh*t as far as I'm concerned.
I contacted HTC 2 weeks ago asking for a solution but they havent contacted me by now. I think some situation makes NDIS shared usb connnection and an activesync connnection fight for the same usb connection. Some of the actions I exposed befored solved the situation for me. Proobably most of the people wont have the problem beacause They will never connect snapvue with vista (usbtools). Maybe Its a problem for some of the people who converted snapvue on wm6....

Yes that sounds likely. In this case I assume hard resetting WM6 to take it back to SnapVue would solve the problem also.
If anyone has had no problems as we suggest after using uSBtools and/or liberate please post here!
I've never had any of the problems that you've described in this thread... but then I've never installed SP1.

Does IE work in Vista via GPRS? If not, when you go 'Control Panel' 'Network Sharing Center' 'Network Connections' do you see the NDIS connection?
Have you left the USB tool connected in Snapvue (if you use it!) the last time you used both Vista and Snapvue together?
If USB tool was left connected, sometimes the Modem will not pass IP activity from a standby of Vista, shutdown Vista, then in USBtool in Snapvue, select detach from Vista. When Vista resarts it should see the Modem but you may need to restart it from Comm Manager.
yes left open the usbtool in snavue and ndis is present but got just a message

Just had exactly the same message on mine.
Method I used..
Wireless Network disabled with Modem on, go to Control Panel, Device Manager. Right click on NDIS modem under Network Devices (it should be showing an exclamation mark) and select uninstall.
Restart Vista and it will reload the driver correctly.

Vista Mobile Device Sync Problems

I have search everything here and on HTC and on Verizon and here is where I am stuck. Using DCD 3.2.0 (but had same problem with 3.1.6) and latest Radio Rom. It seems to connect just fine to a Windows XP activesync 4.5 computer but will not connect to the Mobile Device Center on Vista (32bit).
Looking into the device manager I do see the Mobile Devices/HTC USB Sync driver is active but I do not see the Portable Devices/XV 6800 driver at all.
I do have the "Enable Advanced Network Functioinality" unchecked. I have uninstalled all the drivers and Mobile Sync software and rebooted everything. I even have tried the USB splitter. It seems to half recognize the phone in Vista but the other half is the Mobile Sync part. I do get an error on the phone that says "To synchronize this device, you must install ActiveSync 4.5 or newer on your desktop computer." This is sooooo frustrating as it worked one time on Vista, I think either DCD 3.0.x or maybe earlier and now it only works on XP.
What am I missing here??????

I have tried different USB ports and no Joy. It looks like it recognizes it as the HTC USB Sync driver shows up and it makes a noise that it found a USB device. I don't have another Vista machine but maybe a 64bit windows 2003 server would be the same. Probably not. It did work once a few DCD Roms ago but not since.
Random Disconnects
I am having a similar problem. Evern since moving to DCD 3.12, I have had a similar problem. I can manage to get connected sometimes but it will randomly disconnect.
For a while I switched to No2Chem and didnt experience the problem.

Can you post what devices show up when you are connected?
When I went from 3.1.4 to 3.2.0 I started having issues with Sync Center (Vista Ultimate 32-bit) as well. If I restart the PC it works fine for a while, but then suddenly you hear the USB device disconnect noise and thats all she wrote.
The device's charge LED is on, but it doesn't show up in vista anymore unless you restart the PC.
With 3.1.4 I never had this issue.
I wrote up an ActiveSync/mobile Device Manager Troubleshooting Guide in the Wiki, did you try all of those steps?

Go under settings/connections/USB to PC and uncheck the Enable advanced network functionality and see if that works for you on Vista.
also make sure you check your network connections, and make sure the Remote NDIS Connection (This is your Pocket PC, Smartphone) And have the IP Configuration set to automatic, as i forgot to put it back after using it as a modem for my laptop. This also prevents active sync from working.
Just a thought, as i had a similar problem, and my fix was reverting back IP settings to Automatic. Try this if you haven't

DV8, I have tried both on and off. It seems that off will act like the PPC with it on it acts like the remote NDIS network adapter like if you want to teather it.
ranmasaotome510, If I don't select the advanced network functioinality I never get the Remote NDIS Connection to change anything. All I get is the HTC USB Sync driver under the Mobile Devices and that is it. If I check the advanced network functionality I only get the Microsoft Widnows Mobile Remote Adapter driver and not the HTC USB sync driver. Either way WESCOMM doesn't find the device.
I used the view hidden devices and removed everything I could find but I never can find this driver: Portable Devices\PocketPC to uninstall it. I have also uninstalled WMDC a couple of times and have downloaded and installed the latest. This works fine on XP with out fail. I am also using office 2007 but this did work on this Vista machine with an earlier ROM.
No clue if this is related, but I found two copies of Teredo Tunneling Pseudo-Interface in device manager. One was operational and the other was not. I removed the one with the yellow bang on it and plugged in my phone. Immediately Sync Center saw it and allowed me to create a connection with the phone.
Dumb luck? Maybe.

Thanks for the try, I don't have that driver installed. I had IPv6 not checked and thought maybe that was it but no joy. Any other ideas out there?

This is just a shot in the dark, but have you tried any of the wireless sync options - either bluetooth or IR? I know that they aren't quite as fast or reliable, but it may be worth a shot.

Bluetooth is my next try. I am thinking about this USB bluetooth adapter, any suggestions? http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=3399853&CatId=909

Hello all together,
some days ago I have bought a new S710 Vox phone and had no luck with synchronizing it with my Vista PC. Same problem as jambrose.
Then I read the posting about Teredo Tunneling-Adapter, deleted it from my system, rebooted the PC and surprise, the connection to my Vox works fine. Thank you!
Greetings to all

So where did you find the adapter at? In the device manager under network?
Anyone?

Yes, I found it in the Device Manager under Network.
But, this works only few days. My PC normaly runs all around the day und so it works until yesterday when I had to reboot my system because I had installed a software update. After this reboot the S710 has the same problem again. Even the Teredo Tunneling Adapter is still not there.
I am , any other idea?

Go under settings/connections/USB to PC and uncheck the Enable advanced network functionality and see if that works for you on Vista.

HELP!
HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I cannot get this resolved to save my arse!
I have tried EVERYTHING...just spent 3 hours looking up stuff, and re-reading to try and find something.
What the problem is:
My Verizon XV6800 connects to my Vista laptop, but does not OPEN up WMDC. If I have "Advanced Function" unchecked, then my laptop finds my ppc when connected, but does not open up WMDC. On my phone, a little connection icon goes in the bottom tray. Other times, I get the "you do not have active sync 4.5 installed" error.
What I've tried:
Uninstalling/reinstalled
net localgroup add administrators etc.
I am at a loss.
I just want to sync my Mogul with my Vista Laptop, so that I can install apps and sync email! UGH!
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Do you have a firewall running on your laptop? I had trouble connecting also since I have BitDefender running. I had to open up some ports to get it working. Also, prior to connecting the USB, I would exit the ActiveSync process. The connection will start a new instance of it automatically.

3G Connection Issues
I am not an expert, however, now feel like one after my experience with Shift.
Have you liberated Shift? If yes, you need to attach using USB Tool and connect via Internet Sharing
Are you using multiple SIM Cards, if yes, I found having 1 connection seem to work best
In the other posts, make sure you use high performance on battery settings with using battery

Patience... patience...
Sometimes it's REALLY GOOD to wait a minute or 3 before one must conclude that stiff ain't working...
If all goes well, I must wait some 90 seconds after booting Vista, to get 3G network passed from WinMo to Vista.
I NEVER run the USB TOOL ever !! I do get internet from WinMo just like that. Even the liberated version does it by itself....
When in Vista: Open Control Center (button on top right of front face)
Tap on MODEM icon
After a few seconds or so you should see in top right of control cent window that you have connection to H/3G/E etc etc - one of those at least and the modem will now say ON and be annotated with the carriers name
