Hi Guys,
New to the ppc scene, so please be gentle!
I've had a search through the forum, and can't find the answer to my problem, so please help me, if you can.
I have just been given an imate jam by my dad, his old work phone. It hasn't been used for approximately 6 months, so I had to charge the battery (and back up battery) to get it up and running.
Now I've got it charged up and switched on I've encountered a problem:
When I connect my Jam to my PC (XP Pro) it lights up the charge LED but then nothing, no installing drivers or anything. When I start activesync it doesn't see the Jam, when I go to device manager on my pc it's not there.
The Jam has also reset itself a few times, so I was thinking I should upgrade/reflash the software - but I can't do that when the PC doesn;t see the Jam.
Have I missed something, done something stupid or is the Jam knackered? Any help would me muchos appreciated
Many thanks in advance.
My device is an imate jam, details below:
ROM Version: 1.03.00 WWE
ROM Date: 11/01/04
Radio Version: 1.01.00
Protocol Version: 1337.38
Ext ROM Version: 1.03.163 WWE
Not sure if this helps anyone help me with my problem, but thought the more information the better!
Thanks in advance for you help
Check your connection settings in ActiveSync.
Ok, I've just tried the settings you suggested, though for some reason I can only select COM4?? I'm using activesync version 4.1.4841.0
When I try and connect I get the error shown in the attached image
Although some have had luck with AS4.x, others as well as myself have experienced that it doesn't work very well with the Magician. Use AS3.8 and it works flawlessly.
ok, I've changed to activesync v3.8 and still no joy - it just goes in circles looking for the device on COM4
I'm showing:
COM1 Not Installed
COM2 Not Installed
COM4 Available
Infrared Port Not Installed
USB USB is Available
This is driving me crazy!!
Normally when the magician is plugged in to the usb port, windows should recognize this and go through the usual driver installation procedure. If not disconnect the magician, switch off all settings in AS and reboot your PC. After the PC has booted and you logged-in, connect the magician to a different usb port. If the windows plug+play install routine does not appear, go to control panel and add the device manually. Once the device is added, then put back your settings in AS.
ok, 2 reboots later!!
when I connect it (on a different port) all that happens is the LED goes Orange to indicate that its charging - no drivers are installed.
When I go to Add Hardware it can't find the Jam (tried changing the port) and if I go to device manager its not there (not even with a ! Warning next to it).
I'm now trying to add it from a list, but I can't find imate or HTC in the list of manufacturers.
I'm totally stumped, this is insane!
Any more ideas?
Try hard resetting the magician then check AS settings in the magician also.
I've done a hard reset and rebooted my pc again, still nothing, even when I try and add it manually.
I've even tried connecting in bootloader mode, but that won't work either!
Could it be a hardware fault? Or more likely a software thing?
Not being recognised
Hi
I had the same problem today, it turned out to be a faulty cable(brand new spare). I used a different cable and all is good.
:wink:
I've now tried 3 different cables, 2 latops and a desktop PC and am having the same problem no matter what - I reckon my Jam's screwed up somehow!
Take a look on the connector, try to clean it(with alcohol preferably and with battery out of jam). You have to have AS installed before you connect the jam to pc for the first time, otherwise it will cause problems. Did you try BT connection to active sync? Did it work? Did your dad experience these problems too?
Ok, there's definately a problem with my device.
I can pair it up via BT and transfer files etc, but as soon as I connect with Activesync I get the same error message as I posted earlier in this thread.
I've tried cleaning the mini-usb port (battery out) with alcohol, still no joy.
Spoke to my dad, says he never used activesync, just used it as a phone and a sat nav, nothing more.........
Starting to get really wound up by this now. Unless anyone has any other ideas (dropping it from a great height??!!) I think I'm gonna have to send it to a repair centre for them to have a look at it
i had an intermittent problem like this wherw windows would say a USB device connected to the system was malfunctioning etc..
It cleared up after a while donno why... when uve connected the JAM, wiggle the connector around a bit and see if anything happens....
The message you get is not necesarilly caused by faulty device, I got that message many times before I was able to properly configure my active sync over BT.
the cable supplied with imate jam looks like a normal mini usb cable but its not.
its different then the mini usb cable. You cant use a mini usb cable (from ur camera,card reader etc.) with your imate jam.
Once I used my camera mini usb cable with imate jam and i got the same error which omhaigh is having. Netither Windows recognize my imate jam nor activesync. I plugged in my imate jam cable and it was all good again.
In short, you need cable supplied with imate jam to connect it with pc.
The Magician's USB cable is a standard one. I've been using various USB cables on my laptop. home desktop, and office PC without any problems.
yeah, it is completley standard, ive used 5 different cables and all work,
I've now tried a whole host of PC's and Laptops at work, using several mini usb cable and bluetooth (both built in and dongle on different machines) following the advice above and in the BT active sync thread.
No matter what I do (including cleaning the ports with alcohol etc) I get no joy what so ever, and always end up with the same result!!
I've read that connecting the device to a pc before installing activesync can cause problems.......I'm starting to think that perhaps my dad's done that and either can't remember or is too embarrassed to admit it! Is there a fix if this is what has happened?
I'm guessing its gonna have to go to a repair centre
Yesterday I updated my T-Mobile Wing from the stock WM6 to WM6.1 and OpenTouch 4.0. I am running Windows Vista so I have to use the Windows Mobile Device Center. My problem is the first time I tried to sync I had no issues (contacts and email/appts). Now when I try, it doesn't even connect to my device. Anyone have any suggestions on why I'm having this issue?
BLUETOOTH?
Does Your Computer Have Bluetooth, Thats What I Used To Get It Synced The First Time?

No it doesn't have bluetooth built in or anything. Like I said, I was able to get it sync'd last night via USB and now its not even connecting.
I just went and bought a bluetooth usb adapter for my lappy. i'll see if i can get it to connect/sync that way.
I can sometimes (rarely connect) but can't sync
Any other options on why I can't sync? I'm running the wing with WM6.1 and Touch Point 4.0. My OS is Vista Home Premium so I have to use Windows Mobile Device Center.
thanks.
Yes I have one option.
When you first log in to your windows profile as your desktop is loading your computer should make a small melody sound right after this connect your phone to the computer, give it a few moments you should see the small Windows mobile device center screen start up. I know it sounds weird but I had the same issues and after months of endless research I accidentally discovered this.
The bad thing is you have to restart your computer and connect on desktop loading everytime you want it to recognize your device through Windows Mobile Device Center.
Please let me knows if it works for you.
I haven't really figured out an entirely foolproof method (haven't tried BigREDD's suggestion yet), but I usually just keep plugging it in and unplugging it until it's recognized. Restart the computer with the phone already plugged in via USB. Soft-reset the phone while it's already plugged in via USB. Make sure repllog.exe is in your startup. I've never had any luck starting ActiveSync from Programs and then hitting "Sync", but maybe you will.
Help! Cant Sync No Blue Tooth Only Boot Screen
UUUUGGG! Good grief. today has been a charlie brown day. will you please help me?
must have skipped a step flashing?
the phones connected to the computer via usb and it wont sync? , no blue tooth, to make it worst its stuck on the boot screen. i think i have the correct RUU? Anyone have ideas?
Got my HD in today and for some reason, I'm having a hell of a time setting up windows mobile device center.
When I install the software and plug in the HD, my laptop immediately tries to install the new hardware's driver.
It ends up installing something called "Microsoft Windows Mobile Remote Adapter #5"
What is that? When I used to install the diamond, it would install the correct driver and when device center would load up, a picture of a diamond would show up.
Now, I get a generic phone.
Am I missing something?
Thanks guys,
Mark
Just a heads up so the mods can lock or delete this thread. It turns out that it's just a bad USB port.
I've got 3 ports on my laptop and the rest work fine. Doesn't matter what device I use, same problems.
That's wierd, just never had that happen before.

Hi there,
I've had my HD2 for 2 weeks now and its been working perfectly. I decided to hard reset my phone and start again from scratch. However, now when I connect it to my PC it doesn't connect or recognise it at all, it charges though. I also tried it on my laptop, thinking it might be my PC but its just the same. This is really frustrating and any help would be greatly appreciated.
Goto "Start/Menu/All Settings/Connections/USB to PC" and ensure ActiveSync button is green.
If you are running Vista or Win7 you have to install Windows Mobile Device Center. http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/en-us/downloads/microsoft/device-center-download.mspx
If not the normal Active Sync will not see the phone.
Hey guys. I know this a old thread. I notice ever since I used the program here to change the radio on my htc hd2 that my computer no longer detects my phone with snyc cable even if I have Windows Mobile Center 6.1 installed an such. The programs pop up though when I look on device manager there no unknown devices or anything. In fact I don't even hear a sound of any sort that a usb device was plug into my pc same thing on my laptop. I even put back original tmobile rom on my htc hd2 no resolve. When I fflash it with Leoimg.tbh or how ever you spell it I put it in my sd card. Any ideas on how to get the old phone to work on windows 10 again? or is something mess up in the coding on official rom or on how I flash it back to stock?. I wish I had a old pc with windows vista to see if it just windows 10 or what. Just seems so odd
no reaction from phone nor pc
Hi, guys i have similar problem, but it has nothing to do with Active Sync. The device won't notice that it is connected to the pc (it won't ask (this option is ticket) if it should act as card reader, modem or Active Sync) so as pc won't show new device. Strangely, while the device is connected into an outlet charger via cable including data wires and "don't charge if connected to a pc" option is ticket in hd2, it acts as it is connected to a pc and won't charge. When it is connected to a charger with unseparable cable (which i suppose hasn't have data wires) it starts carkit menu. For me it seems like something is shorted but i'd like to hear some other suggestions before i try to disassemble it and look inside.

Was about to create topic but found this and hopefully will try this and hope it works on my XDA Orbit 2. I brought it off Cex from Aylesbury and it needs some love and update as i have Windows Mobile 6.1 (eeurrgh) and brought it off cos i thought i can upgrade to Winodws Mobile so i hope these works well for me.
Any introductions of doing that?
Thanks in advance.
First link didnt work. The XDA tried to block it by restarting it themselves. Tried third time. And unlucky.
Second Link. How can i use NBH file for my XDA?

this is for xda orbit 1/artemis..

Hi all I'm new here. My phone "O2 XDA Orbit" behaving strangely. Suddenly the sound disappeared and I can not hear phone calls directly into the phone, and any other person hears me not(microphone off), and not just one click sound on the screen. If I restart the phone with USB cable inserted into the phone and computer (on), then the sound occurs again(but not in original style, sound occur in to the back speaker not in front ), and phone function almost normally with microphone (on)>>> until the next reboot when sound disappear again and microphone is off. I mention that;.... connection the phone to the computer can not be achieved in any of this cases. The error code (USB connection) connection on my computer is {Code 10(One of the USB devices attached to this computer has malfunctioned and Windows does not recognize it)} who can not recognize the new hardware. In your opinion of specialists in this field what would be done? I think something happens to the ROM which gives errors of hardware power. The sound occurs when I insert into the phone power charger connector and disappears when the power supply plug out ... Please if you can help me with some guidance what I have to do one upgrade of ROM or something? Specification of the phone is:
[*]IPL-3.04.0001
[*]SPL - 3.04.000
[*]OS - 3.4.0.0
[*]CPU - OMAP850
[*]Speed 201Mhz
[*]RAM 64Mb
[*]Flash 128Mb
[*]Data bus 16bits
[*]ROM 3.4.206.2WWE
[*]ROM date 4/18/07
[*]RADIO Vers. 02.67.90
[*]PROTOCOL Vers. 4.1.13.28
[*]EXT. ROM.Vers 3.4.206.101
[*]MODEL of phone -ARTE200
[*]Platform - PocketPC
Funny ...!!! Today I put the phone to the charger and after I removed the plug from the power supply, the sound has returned, but the USB connection to a PC still can not set ...! What should I do? A new version of Windows can install on my phone; without connecting the USB cable to the phone(ex.-of my card micro SD)??

have you got activesync or windows mobile device centre installed on the pc?
if yes..
i suggest you buy a new usb cable.
i have this problem with a couple of cables.
"USB DEVICE NOT RECOGNISED"
but when i change to a differant cable, everything is ok.
flashing via micro sd - upgrading windows.
have you done uspl 1.11.cmon?
Thanks for your attention Raving in the first place ...! Data cable has no damage that I checked the same cable with my photo camera and it works normally with PC and I have two more data cables and the problem is the same. It seems weird that the phone do some work once, ...once not. It starts when he wants the sound, and can not find any explanation ... In contrast with the USB connection can not establish anything, something happens to the sound module and USB ...PC see's something, but it's not sure what it is, and says he can not establish connection with the new hardware and it gives me error "CODE 10". in Universal Serial Bus Controller and the Active Sync is instaled on my PC but he don't say a word about this connection...I don't know on what to do...! I must mention that this oddity occurred only three days go and without them I do something wrong ... He grabbed him crazy after a normal operation for a year and a half, because we had no problems with it until now ... I used as a GPS and the phone and I was really pleased with him. By the way, what they mean uspl 1.11.cmon? All data of my phone are in the first post.The phone it was once unlocked by someone else, and now I can use any SIM card from any GSM provider..............I forgot to say that I've rebooted 2 times in general mode and now works but without USB connection sound when he wants it or not................But I think she has lost some registry ...!!!
click 1.11.cmon in my signature.
this will divert you to a tutorial thread.
when you can connect your device to your pc successfully, you should do the uspl 1.11.cmon but not for now. do not try and flash a rom yet either, you will break your device. (thats what uspl 1.11.cmon is for)
id like you to just try the "hard reset".
back up all your data first.
bookmark the page as ill be updating it regularly.
personaly i think its your usb cable, eg:
one of my cables works with a micro sd reader but not my for my device, i understand your cable worked but now does not.. however thats what happened to me.
Sound engages when he wants and where he wants. If I restart the phone, sound disappears and microphone stop; and I can not talking on the phone. Enter data cable from PC to phone, and give the phone restart. Once the phone is starts, sound appear but only in back. When talking on the phone sound very loud and sounds of the touchscreen controls can not disconnect the rear speaker who remains engaged and does not want to disengage it from the normal operating mode. Another job here would be that when inserted in the charger cable, the sound is right: each speaker and microphone or operational. If I remove the plug (charger) of phone then the phone function normally just like before, but without USB connection. If I plug "USB cable data" on the phone, to the desktop I see message "One of the USB devices attached to this computer has malfunctioned, and Windows does Not Recognize it. USB Device not recognized." If I unplug USB cable from phone the sound disappears, and what I have to do is to start over again.......!!!!!!!!!
I tested all data cables, and are ok. The problem is hard. The hardware has a technical failure which somehow blocks the data on USB. Battery power consumption is higher and the battery is discharged rather quickly than it was before the cage. At night when I charge the battery full, morning at 10:00 is only 30/40% of capacity. But what is even stranger is that: when I connect phone to PC, in device manager shows me the new hardware (Mobile Device) but after a few seconds there appear a connection error code (CODE 10) that is the hardware can not start. Active sync has not started when the fault occurred..... In your opinion what should be done in this case? ... Should contact a service or ... in any way I can test something before others get the screwdriver into my phone?

Hi raving nanza,
you did a great work with BAB v03.
It works great. sometime the touchpanel reacts slow but good.
But i can't change my touch keyboard from qwerty into qwertz.
HKEY_LOKAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Keyboard Layout\"Active" is "00000407"
Thats the German code - but still having Qwerty?
HKEY_LOKAL_MACHINE\HARDWARE\DEVICEMAP\KEYBD\"TaskManVKey" is "0x23"
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\keyboard layout\Preload\1\"default" is "000000407"
What to do?
