connection help - Touch CDMA General

i was running the 2.31 version of the rom updater utility by coke man to install a 6.1 rom. It didnt get past the 0% on the installation screen when it told me i had an update error and a soft reset would fix it. it didnt fix it and did the same thing next time. now my phone wont connect with the pc or with activesync so im pretty frustrated right now. it charges it via usb but my pc cannot find the phone device itself. also when i plug the phone into the usb cord, i hear a messed up connection sound. you know when you plug in a usb cord to a pc you hear that "do do" with the second "do" at a slightly higher pitch? when i plug mine in now it sounds like it plays the first "do" twice and then nothing happens if that at all makes sense...

1) Can you get back to the boot loader screen. Push power/Camera and reset at the same time.
2) If you can get the bootloader screen what does it say? If it says 2.31 then leave it as is and load whatever rom you want.
3) If it doesn'r say 2.31 then re run icecokemans unlocker again

i cant even establish a connection to do that with the pc. Each time i tried the program before it stopped working, it would stay on 0 with an error code that said a soft reset would fix the problem. But it wouldnt and would get stuck at the same place next time

The sound you're hearing is a driver installation error, maybe start by reinstalling active-sync?
or at least open device manager and see if "Generic RNDIS" is there, that would mean you dont have neccecary drivers and need to download ActiveSync for XP or Windows Mobile Device Center for Vista.
hope that help

reinstallin it fixed it. i really do appreciate the help though. i got the answer i needed within the day i asked where as i still have no helpful responses at any of the other places i asked. thanks

activesync disconnect problem

hi, am sorry if this has been posted but i cant seem to find the solution of my problem.
am using cingular 8125 and upgraded it to WM6.1 and activesync 4.5.
now the problem is, i can not find a disconnect button or how do i disconnect my phone from my PC.
Sry,cudn't get what you are trying to ask ? wud you elaborate a little more.
well,if you simply want to disconnect your phone,then just 'unplug' your phone from the usb cable or if you want to delete partnership with the phone,you can do it in the 'File' option of the AS.
Cheers!
can i just unplugged it directly without disconnecting it? i mean just like the usb flash drive before you can unplugged it you have to do a safely remove hardware operation first. and also like the xda II mini there's an option or a button when you want to disconnect it or stop the sync from the pc.
i hope, i explained it correctly.

Yes there is no real danger when "hot unplugging" your phone. It's more stable than most flash drives or external HDDs. As an option, you could always shut down your computer first.
thank you very much
Sorry for the ultra bump, I didn't want to start a new thread, but this doesn't help me. Whenever I hot unplug my phone, all the USBs stop responding and I can't plug anything back in, without rebooting first. I'm using a Diamond, but this shouldn't be a problem, since it's AS that messes up.

Upgrade to Windows Mobile 6.1

Posting this on both manufacturers’ website, and on here. Not sure if it's a phone issue or an issue with the computer, though I have a feeling it's a computer issue. Anyway, I have an HTC Touch though Alltel. I downloaded the update program from HTC's website for my Phone and Carrier. When the program runs, it goes though all it's normal process, I have to click several check boxes, and finally the update beings and the progress bars is shown on the comp screen, and at the same time the phone enters the bootloader (The screen with the 3~4 colored bars). At this time, you hear the computer ding twice, like it detected a USB device being removed and then reconnected. After a few moments it dings again, this time signifying that the connected device cannot be recognized. After about a minute or two, the update program gives an error. I believe it was "ERROR [260] : CONNECTION"
I've tried everything I can think of to get it to work. I've tried unplugging and replugging it. Tried starting after manually putting it in the bootloader. Tried different USB cables. Tried it with the options for "Advanced Network Connectivity" in the connections section checked and unchecked. No matter how I try it, Vista is never able to retain the connection with the phone once it goes into the bootloader. I've even tried allowing Vista to locate Driver software, but it always searches for like 5 minutes, and always says it couldn’t find anything.
Any ideas?
PS: I did try some of the options posted around to basically 'jail break' the phone so could install via SD card, however I encounted the same error. And, honestly, I would rather apply the update without having to hack the phone 1st...

Need help ;(

HI ! In the firsth place sorry for my bad english.
I have had a titan for about 6-7 months and a week ago it stopped working without a reason.
It stopped responding and after a reset it only shows the starting logo, and after that the screen slowly shifts to pure white colour and I can hear a one "beep" sound.
I tried to hard reset it and everything but without any luck. It charges the battery fine when connected to a USB port (orange light),
after turning it on i get the green ligh, main branded logo and some numbers (M05 S04 B06 D 3.60 and 2 lines of other numbers but they show only for like half a second and disappear so i cant write them down)
after that nothing, the logo screen goes all white, with some "notification" sound and thats all.
When connected to PC It gets detected as "something" and I cant use any flashing software because it says that it did not detect the device,
one time It got detected as some modem device. Is there any way to bring it back to life ? or is it bricked permanently ?
Please Help
And Thank You in Advance !!
Update: I managed to make a connection between my PDA and PC
it is detected as "Microsoft windows mobile adapter #2", and my PDA_PC is detected in My Computer,
but when I try to flash it the software detects it i get the message to wait 5 min till the flash is over but
as soon as this message appears my PDA is getting disconnected and i get an connection error...
help ;(
Ah... and one more thing, I dont know if it matters but when i open my PDAs memory the windows folder appears to be deleted...
can any one zip their windows folder and give me a link to it... maybe that will help ;(
I have the same problem on my Mogul with connecting to my Computer! For some odd reason it won't sync and restarts my computer automatically!! WEIRD!? Just go check out some of the Unbricking posts or Google it- they may help you!

HD not recognised on any PC

Hi Guys, hopefully someone can help me here it is driving me crazy - well, here is my issue.
Doesnt matter what PC I plug my HD into it doesnt get picked up, i looked in device manager and still nothing. Its like its not connected, but it shows on the phone that it is charging. And does charge.
Can someone please help?
Thanks!
Settings - Connection - USB to PC - uncheck 'enable advanced network functionality'
All that was there is ' Enable faster data synchronization '
No advanced network functionality. Im on Telstra NextG Network Australia with there crappy stock rom if that helps.
I'm looking at a stock Touch HD and you're right- they changed the name of the box. So uncheck 'enable faster data synchronization'.
I did but it is still not working.
I have also done a hard reset and restore to manufacturers default and still not working.
What kind of PC are you using? Is it XP? If so you need to download ActiveSync.
Using XP.. I have downloaded and installed Activesync. It used to be picked up on every pc and suddenly now it doesnt.
Opened Activesync ports in your firewall settings?
Yeah its all fine, its as though the PC doesnt even recognise it. Doesnt show up in Disk Management.
hi lucky
you're already the 3rd one with this problem.
if you plug-in the usb connector, is there a dialog popping up on your hd which let's you choose between synch or hd mode?
if not, welcome to the group of disapointed htc owners.
there is already a thread somewhere about this problem. i have exactly the same, but no one could help me until now.
at least i found a way to flash a rom. the usb connection was working for about 20 minutes. afterwards it broke down again...
try the following:
1. shut down hd
2. remove SD and Sim Card
3. plug in the usb cable
4. do a hard reset by holding vol up and vol down while you press the power button
5. confirm the hardware reset
6. when the hd is booting up again, it will do some kind of customization process. during this process active sync should come up on your pc. cancel the device setup in acive sync and wait until your hd is completely configured.
7. afterwards reconnect the usb cable and active sync should work for a while...
let me know if it helped. i'm still searching for a permanent solution for this problem...
Nope, didnt work at all.
Not even the choice to decide what I want to do pops up on the phone.
Do you think it could be a hardware fault?
I think it is a hardware fault because i did a SPL boot and instead of 'USB' showing in the white box "Serial" did.
It just seems wierd because it was working fine for 2 weeks and then it all the sudden stopped and I did no ROM flashing or anything.
Should I try reflashing my device through the SD card and see how I go from there?
did you try a different cable???
I have about 20 different USB -> mini USB and only about 2/3 of them work with phones !!!
Yeah ive tried all different cables, ive tried ones that work with my diamond but still dosent work with my hd.

Are you getting anything popping up in device manager when you plug it in, in other words does the list refresh like it has detected a new hardware device or is it completely silent? I have seen it a couple of times where a device gets stuck as being recognized as something else. If the list does scroll (responds to the HD being plugged in) do a screen shot of everything in DM then plug the HD in and compare the lists to see if it is showing up as something else. If so, delete the device then unplug and plug in the HD again and have it reinstall the driver.
Good luck,
Gordo
I did what you said Gordo, and it doesnt show up inDevice Manager. Its as though its not even plugged in but for some reason it still recharges off the USB.
I guess about the only other thing I can think of is to plug it in on another PC and see if that computer tries to load a driver. If it does then it is something strange with your computer. If it doesn't then there is something bad with the USB port on the HD (maybe).
Gordo
Yeah I tried that but still nothing, im sending it back to Telstra, since its within 14 days of me getting it I get a whole brand new one!
thanks for your help guys

[Q] sudden changes in the way the phone work please help!

Hi,
This might be a newbie issue but my HD2 was working well up until few days ago when I noticed that everytime I make a call instead of ringing normally it does it in speaker (hands free) mode what caught my attention since I didn't change any settings.
I'm inclined to think that it might be due to some corruption in the software since I didn't find any optios to revert this so I was thinking on doing a hard reset but...
The other issue I have is that I tried to connect it to two different computers (that it used to connect without problems) and it does not do it.
It does charge on the USB but neither PC's recognize that the phone is connected.
I tried 2 different cables on the 2 PC's without luck.
So again I'm now more convinced that it is a software problem.
Any idea how should I proceed so I don't loose any data????
Thanks,
Look up "stuck in car kit mode" see if it's the same symptoms.
I look into it thanks...
I looked it up,but is not exactly the same.
It's stuck on loud speaker yes but not in landscape mode, if I rotate the phone the screen works ok.
It also goes to sleep so they are not exactly the same
It just does not get recognized by the pc when I plug it on the USB.
I just get the charging light and the little plug simbol on top as you get when you plug to external power but the computers don't make the sound (or any sign of recognition) that normally comes when you plug any USB device to it.
Unless this is just the start of it...
Well, after reading all 12 (or so) pages on that thread and cleaning the heck of the micro usb, wigling the cable in every direction this morning I managed to connect the phone to the PC and get rid of the loud speaker, so even if the symptoms are not exactly the same looks like it heading in that direction.
Bummer...
I guess it's time to start looking for a new phone.
