No internet connection while connected through ActiveSync - Networking

Hi everybody,
I have the following problem: when my htc x7500 is connected to my office pc via ActiveSync no internet connection is available on device. As a result the following operation are not allowed: update weather info, update gps satellite data and so on. On my office pc everything seems normal, synchronization works fine and I can see the device's local area connection icon on the iconbar which seems to be able to exchange data regularly.
My OS is winxp and on the device I had installed WM6 and now I have WM6.1 and both windows mobile os had this problem.
Please can someone help me finding a solution?
Thanks in advance,
Willy

check
enable advanced network functionality
in usb to pc
in settings->connections

Me too
This does not work for me on my Touch HD, worked fine on my previous TyTnII with WM6.1.
My activesync version hasn't changed, only my phone.
Tried enabling the 'Enable faster data synchronization' but it still doesnt work.
Has anyone resolved this ?

Have you tried uninstalling and reinstalling ASync?
I've had this problem in the distant past but can't recall off-hand how it was solved, though I would have tried to reinstall.

you can also try to go to settings->connections-connections->advanced->select network
and choose my work network in the dropdown

thanks all for your hints. The activesync re-installation did not work. Now I'll have to wait until monday before trying settings->connections-connections->advanced->select network.
I'll let you know.

I needed to do this regfix to my windows os (compatible both with activesync and wm device center)
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows CE Services]
"AllowLSP"=dword:00000000

I've tried all suggested workaround without success
I think there is someting wrong with my office pc configuration because in the past I was able to access internet from the device and I can't remeber what changed after that...

I have at present exactly the same problem. Did you or anybody else find a solution?
Thanks for any support, Siegfried

On settings- usb conection try to disable advanced network functionality
Hope it helps,

I have this issue at the moment, and I am confident it is to do with how this one PC is set-up as I get connectivity through other PC's on the same network. Have no idea how to repair or troubleshoot...but could not find this fix in the registry...
Any help greatly required....

having this issue too on my touch HD , i cant connect to orange wireless internet (mobile internet)

Try the registry edit suggested above. I am running XP and it works for me.

WM5 + PC connection problem

When I put my Hima to the cradle I just hear the ... sound(it's 3x that sound in XP when is any new hardware connected via USB). Then it does nothing. The AS connection should be established. Please how to solve this big problem?
has a network connection for the device been established ? Look in
start --> settings --> network on the pc
???
No. As I wrote it does absolutely nothing. Only the ... sound is playing and that's all. What kind of established network do you mean?
communication with pc and pda is done through a network connection since AS4. Maybe a firewall is blocking it ?
Maybe...
...you're right. But 1 hour ago I was running on Diamond and there was no problem...
hmm, maybe it's just magneto that uses the network interface then
also use AS4 build 4328. People say it works better than 4343
...
I am using ASync 4 build 4328. Tried also reinstall it but unsuccessful. [/i][/quote]
...
The ... sound is the 'Windows XP Hardware Fail.wav' that I have assigned to 'Device Failed to Connect' event...
maybe try another USB port ?
...
Doesn't help. I have started the PC's Device Manager and I have noticed that one Device is appeared in 'Network Adapters' folder:
Generic RNDIS (PROTOTYPE--Remember to change idVendor)
and :!: is displayed by this adapter(it's not working properly).
When I disconnect the device it disappears.
Maybe I need some drivers?
Or what does this mean:'Remember to change idVendor'?
...confused...

mine says the same except it is working and the adapters name is: windows mobile based device
are u sure it's not a firewall issue ? have u disabled the native windows firewall ?
...
I have tried anything that I±e found in discussions at this server but still unsuccessfully. There are now 2 major problems in Magneto:1.This ActiveSync problem(that could be solved maybe)and the 2.Unability to install/run more than 50% of applications that I am using normally in 2003se. This umcompatibility is unbelievable and stupid,but it's true. This is the biggest problem that keeps me still out of Magneto.

...Sorry I forgot. I have disabled my Kerio PFirewall,The Microsoft in XP I am not using. I have installed also the drivers that had to change the 'Generic RNDIS...' to 'windows mobile based device' but also doesn't help. PS:Sorry for double. I didn't want that.
try to delete the windows mobile based device then with the pda in the cradle restart the pc
...
I am at the end with any ideas. Nothing helps. Thanx guys for your help. Now I'll be back to Diamond that works best at this time. Maybe I will wait for any other version of WM5 and try it later.

How to use P3600 as HSDPA Modem

I want to setup my P3600 (English ROM) as a 3.5G modem for my PC but not successful yet. The Telco service staff has no idea too and pass me a manual for dopod 838 pro. The mentioned programs are not there, nor in my dopod D810 CD.
I can:
- Activesync using USB
- Activesync using bluetooth
Question:
- Should I use the same HTC modem dialer on my PC for XDA?
- Should I use the Start->Program->Internet Sharing?. It allows me to choose bluetooth or USB to PC but both not working too after connect.
Anyone successfully connect their PC via P3600 using HSDPA, pls share the steps. Many thanks.
Eventually, I figure it out myself.
Forget all the HTC modem dialer or wireless modem program as in Xda.
1. Start->Program->Internet Sharing on WM5.0
2. Select the connection type: USB or BT
3. Select "Connect"
4. Then connect the USB and done.
For BT, it would have instruction for you to start PAN now. done.
Woo, it's much easier than the HTC dialer. But now my problem is VPN problem with my telco.
Thanks very much for reporting this info back, it will come in useful when I get my trinity!

just 2¢...
Sadly, because Internet Sharing is actually a NAT server running on your phone, it could prevent you from using 'classic' VPN. You can find more details by googling for 'VPN over NAT'.
for VPN purposes you can always use old good wireless modem mode. it works well.
I don't think it is related to NAT. As long as the VPN ports are opened, it should work. I am using a Wireless router at home and no trouble at all for using VPN under NAT.
Checked with telco. They can enable it for me with extra charge/month. and also the traffic would be charged as expensive GPRS plan. What kind of service!!!
Think twice before subscribing. I used "WonToFee / 1-1-" . The sales that say it can work for VPN may not even know what a TCP port is.
Anyone has use VPN over HSDPA with another telco? e.g. SMOOTH TONE
Hello,
This thread is a bit old, however I think it is related to my problem: I am trying to use Internet Sharing on my P3600 (ROM 1.23.405.2 / Radio ROM 1.38.00.11). Using BT, it works just fine. However, when connected on USB it works fine only for the first time. When I tap "disconnect", the HSDPA connection is stopped, but the status keeps displaying "Connected". There is now way to use Internet Sharing again before a soft reset (Windows XP wouldn't even recognize the P3600 again). Is this a known issue? I have googled a bit, but I haven't found any similar problems.
Thanks!

Hi shefful,
I have had the same problem. I have come across a possible solution while browsing forums. When you need to disconnect press and hold down the red end call button for a few seconds and this disconnects the modem. I haven't tried this yet but it's worth a shot.

Hi adamwolfe,
Thanks for your help, unfortunatelly this is not the solution to my problem. The GPRS connection ends (according to the icon on top of the screen), but the status keeps displaying "Connected". The application stops responding and can't be stopped from Settings/Memory/Runnning Programs.
Hi shefful,
Yeah, I have the same problem too. Looks like the program freezes in the Connected status. Even tried terminating Internet Sharing with Start/Settings/.../Memory/Running Programs and relaunching Internet Sharing.
Sometimes I get a popup message saying the remote host has terminated the connection before the program hangs. I think this may be the cause of the problem. Which mobile operator are you on?
Rebooting is the only solution so far. Fortunately the Trinity reboots in 20 seconds - one of the fastest in the PPC market I think.
Hi ayhansan,
For other reasons I needed to hard reset my Trinity and the freezing problem has disappeared. I don't know what had caused this problem, I just hope it won't happen again. If I disconnect the USB cable, the status changes to "disconnected" and I can always reconnect.
same problem here
i am connecting to laptop thru USB
after I disconnect UMTS phone syaing still connected
and want kill Internet Sharing
???
thanks

WM6 does NOT sync with Vista running OUtlook 2003/2007

I just got a new laptop running Vista and I am just having tremendous issue trying to sync my Sprint Mogul (HTC Titan) to Windows Mobile Device Center (WMDC --> ActiveSync replacement in Vista) and Outlook 2007.
Basically, when I connect my Mogul via USB (NO Bluetooth), the device shows that it is connected for syncing to the laptop. But WMDC shows "connecting..." all the time and just not syncing. The only way to do this is to reboot the laptop.
The same phone sync just find to a Windows XP machine. I have tried the following but to NO AVAIL:
- Disable "Enhanced network USB function" in the device (Start -> Settings -> Connection -> USB to PC
- Remove all background services in the laptop, like Anti Virus, Vista Sidebar, Spy Sweeper.
BTW, my Mogul is running WM6, no custom ROM or anything.
Does anyone have the same issue and can provide me with the solution? It seems Vista and WMDC just breaks everything.
what does sync center say?? I'd try going into WMDC and unchecking all the sync content and seeing if it will connect...chances are theres something that it's trying to sync and it won't....I've also ran into a problem recently where outlook must be open for it to sync properly...you can try that.
There are 2 WMDC applications:
WMDC (Start -> Programs): just say connecting
Sync Center (on Taskbar): when I double click, under "View Sync Partnership", it just say "Disconnected"
I always run Outlook 2007 before Sync, so I suspect something else in Vista causing it.
I have tried a fresh Vista install, and it sometimes work, sometimes doesn't.
What I found out is like this:
1) Start Vista and Outlook
2) Connect device to WMDC - WORK
3) Disconnect, but Outlook remain
4) Reconnect - DOESN'T WORK

I have Vista and Outlook 2007 and never had a problem with syncing. I just tried the 4 steps you outlined and it worked when I first connected my Mogul and also when I reconnected the Mogul. What version of WMDC are you running? I have 6.1.6965.
I usually don't run Outlook before doing a sync. I've never had a problem with this either way.
2 Things
I know you said that it shows something about being connected, but have you gone to My Computer and tried to access your device? This will help determine if its just not being recognized by the system properly, or if the sync software is hosed.
Additionally, try searching here or on ppcgeeks.com for the "update vista drivers". I didn't need them - but apparently some folks did. Depending on how long you've had Vista, and/or whether or not you've done M$ Windows updates, I'm thinking your driver could be hosed.
I too have Vista - and I can sync just fine as well as transfer files back & forth through My Computer. I also sync the same device up with an additional computer (how sweet is that? I wish iTunes would freakin' work like that one of these days!) that's on XP.
Would love to help more if need be. I'll be around Saturday if you want to PM and try going over your settings vs mine or something.
Sometimes I have to connect my mogul up to 6 times before it connects properly to my Vista laptop. I now always open device manager before connecting the mogul. It doesn't connect properly until the Microsoft Windows Mobile Remote Adapter driver installs correctly under Network Adapters AND the pocketpc driver installs correctly under portable devices. And it is very wierd because sometimes it works on the first try, and other times like I said b4 it can take up to 6 tries before it works right. I have looked up the error codes that it generates in the Event logs and there are a lot of people who are having the exact same issue, so I chalk it up to a Vista problem and hopefully it will get better after SP1 is released.

How did you get this MS Windows Mobile Remote Adapter and Driver? Windows Update or manual download link?
I don't know how to set my ppc-6800 (same as Mogul) to sync my contacts and e-mails with outlook 2007. When i connect it to my PC, it appears in my computer and i can browse in and transfer files in both ways. But still no contacts or e-mail sync...i would like to get help.

I agree with the problem being a driver issue, mine searches for updates every week. I've had a vista machine since october last year and havent had any problems at all with syncing(usb or BT) or changing roms. As a suggestion when a first got my 6800 in July and switched to the 2.17 rom i had to upgrade to a newer version of WMDC, check your version and the most up to date one on HTC's website. Hope that helps.
Hi all,
I am bringing this thread back because now I have another issue with Mogul syncing to Vista with Outlook 2007. This is actually for my friend but the issue is simply puzzling and I hope anyone have insight on this.
My friend have another laptop and a Mogul and when he connect the device to the laptop via USB, Vista Mobility Device Center (MDC) only recognize it as a MEDIA PLAYER, not as a PDA.
I tried the following:
- Disable/Enable USB Advanced Network functionality (System -> Settings -> Connections)
- Hard reset the Mogul
- Connect the devices and run Windows Update (to check if there is a driver issue)
When I connect that same Mogul to a Windows XP, it sync just fine.
What do you guys think?
Guys,
Just a quick update on the issue whereby I cannot sync the Mogul to Vista: the driver updates did the trick! After installing the driver update, syncing works just fine! I wonder why M$ didn't include this update under Windows Update.
Thanks for the help all!

Please, where did you get the driver updates. Was it a driver on the phone, or for vista.
I am having similar probs, except it appears to sync, but deletes all contacts (inclunding sim!) from my touch dual.
It's shown in the thread above. The driver is available in PPCGeeks. I forgot which thread there, though.

I'm sorry -- was not aware of that. I have automatic updates set up so this question of driver update/renewal never came up for me.
Does this update work for anyone?
My Mogul is hanging on my laptops side...it say "Connecting to Unidentified Device".
And then it just stays there for ever....

The only way I could get around it is to disconnect my device, remove the device from WMDC - and - remove the PC connection in ActiveSync on the device and start ALL over again.
Also, I found that when you have a lot of data (like I do) to start syncing only piecemeal, i.e. do the first sync with the defaul settings first, then add folders, then add emails, etc.
IMHO - WMDC is so inadequate.
Oh well, tried all of these and still no joy
This works for me on my Sprint Mogul a/k/a HTC PPC-6800

Disable the Windows Mobile DNS cache. This requires a registry
modification. Windows Mobile does not include a registry editor, but
free third-party editors are available (such as one from www.phm.lu).
Change the value of:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\InternetSettings\
DnsCacheEnable to 0
If DnsCacheEnable does not exist, create it as a DWORD value.
A soft reset is necessary for the change to take effect.

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??????

Have you tried a different usb port on the PC, or a different PC running Vista 32 bit? Mine works fine in Vista & XP.

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.

Worked for me, Thanks!
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.

[Q] Problems with Internet sharing

Hi, I wonder if someone can help me with this problem. I recently got a Shift X9501 from China, it is already liberated with WM6 working (it has Start menu, internet explorer, USB Tools, etc.). However, the only thing I couldn't find is the Internect sharing application. It doesn't show up in the Start -> Programs folder nor can I find it in the Windows folder. I was testing the 3G connection on the Shift using my iPhone SIM card, and it only worked on the WinMo side not the Vista side. I called HTC and AT&T customer services and was told that it was because my SIM card won't allow desktop Windows to use the 3G service. So I'm guessing my only solution is to use the Internet Sharing. Please, anyone could give me a hand on this? Thx!!
Internet sharing is possible. There is nothing that you need to do or run on the WM side.
Internet sharing can only be done from the Windows side as wifi and bluetooth is only accessible there, for connection to your external device, e.g. laptop or iphone.
Check this thread for instruction on internet sharing.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=488872&highlight=sharing
If it doesn't work then you may need to check your windows services to check that the internet sharing service is enabled.
Then it should work.
Hi Flanimal, thanks for the reply. But I don't think that's what I am meaning. From what I learned from the forum and other sources, I think the original Shift should come with an application called internet sharing in Snapvue even without liberation, and it can share the 3G connection from Snapvue to Vista. The application is also a standard one for WM6. I was wondering since mine is of model X9501 and it's already liberated when I got it. I doubt is it possible that the liberation deleted that function? Please help if you have any idea, a great many thanks!
I got a partial solution here by myself, and am writing it here in case anyone has similar problem. I tried to download an application named ICS Control 0.21, and copied the required IPNat.dll to the windows directory, and it turned out this way won't work as it told me loading the NAT driver failed. Then I tried to copy the IntShrUI.exe and intshare.dll to the windows directory (which are official WM6 files downloaded from somewhere else in this forum), and they also didn't work, and when I run the internet sharing application (IntShrUI.exe), it prompted that the connection could not be established with unknown reason. I then tried to backup my ROM and flash with a new one from the forum, and I failed and the SnapVue was dead. Then I found a tread in the forum telling me how to hard reset the SnapVue, and restored to the original state when I got the Shift. I thought it was really the original state, but this time the IntShrUI.exe worked! Vista is now connected with SnapVue and used it as an internet connection (later I did some registry work and the problem occured again, which forced me to hard reset my Shift again). However, the problem is that the connection is still restricted to local access only. I would guess that this is still my SIM card's fault, since it is for iPhone, and both AT&T and HTC people believed it won't work for desktop windows like Vista. I'm about to give up further exploring on this, and maybe I'll get a SIM card for laptop to have a try. Still, if anyone has any good solution for this, please reply to this thread. Any help will be appreciated.
