I've previously been connecting my Qtek 9090 to my computer fine.
I've just purchased the Imate Jasjar and need to transfer my contacts and diary across from the pc but I'm unable to do so.
I've been getting the message "one of the USB devices attached to this computer has malfunctioned and Windows does not recognize it, when connecting the device using the usb cable given in the box.
If you've got any possible solution it would really really help right now!
Are you using ActiveSync 4?
Yes I instaled activesynk 4 also. I forget to say that my pc sees jasjar as a local connection area 2 after a while connecting it to my pc.
Is this have something to do with some settings;
:idea: Do your have a firewall / Anti-virus running on your pc? This, from experience has caused some connectivity issues in the past. If so, disable, connect your universal, then re-enable your firewall / Anti-virus.
i been having the same prob with AS4 and jasjar
ive tried turning off firewall and antivirs but still no connection..
by any chance was your imate jasjar bought off expansys???
mine was
thanks
You might want to verify that you are connected directly to the computer and not via a USB hub. I have had problems with WM5 devices connected to hubs not detecting properly, but direct connections worked.

hi
i use the usb ports of my laptop..no usb hub..
the only way i can sync is via BT
its wireless i agree but i need to use the cable aswell...
Well I bought mine also from expansys, Is this has something to do with my local area connection at home; Iam saying this because sometimes jasjar connects to my pc only as a local area connection 2. Then it can be synchronized by taking on and putting on the cable again. But this is not the wright way. Any ideas; Thanks
yeah.. same thing mine also conects as lan 2...
but never have i been able to get it to sync.. so could you please tell me more in detail if ever you got it synced,,if so how
thanks
Do you have any kind of VPN software installed on your laptop such as Checkpoint Secure Remote?
AS4 gave me no end of trouble at first with the same symptoms as yourself. I removed the VPN software and all of a sudden everything started to work properly.
hi
no i dont have vpn software..the only firewall i have is that of xpsp2 and the antivirus program i use is trendmicro pc-cillin/..ive tried with both of them off still no usb connection to activestink.... bt AS works no matter what
Have you try uninstall the Pc-cillin, reboot the machine then try again.
same **** here
List of issues:
-as4 will not see jasjar, spins forever
-----Solution, soft reset device, this has happens due to your last sync.
-Needs to resync everything - connection resets every second time almost
really very buggy

It's not enough to turn off antivirus and firewalls... you need to uninstall them...
Hello All,
I don't know what is the problem. It seems ok for the first time after i installed the version 4.0 that comes with the CD. It works fine. But for the second time, it just 'connecting'. Have gone thru' the troubleshooting processes but without success. Also tried to install the new version 4.1 but won't work.
Pls can someone help me on this.
rgds.

does it sync over BT?
i had the same problem before & i still do, but soem other guy here in the forum said it worked for him when he uninstalled AS then reinstalled it again.
try it, it might work with you.
until now i'm still stuck with BT syncing, i cannot sync over USB.
i still get "connecting" message all the time with no progress.
Hi Guys
I had EXACTLY the same problem, alhough I could not get BT to work but could get IRDA to work.
Here is what I THINK the problem is, by the way i-mate were useless it was a colleague at work that had finally found this problem on his device.
WM5 devices when connecting via USB create a NETWORK. Strange but true.
SO, open Control panels, open Network Connections.
Attach your K-JAM (or other WM5 device) you SHOULD see a new network get created with a random number at the end of it (the number changes depending on the USB port you use so you MAY need to do this procedure again if you connect via a different USB port).
Get the properties of this new network when it opens you should see that NONE of the services are checked.
Check them all.
Close.
Everything SHOULD suddently spring into action, it certainly did for me.
It appears that some PC config's (all our work ones) need to be configured this way were as otheres set themselves up fine.
Let me know if this works.
Cheers.

the wierest thing just happened.
i wanted to try your solution, i opened the network connections folder, connected my kjam, and for my surprise it just connected without me doing anything, and i had it sycronised over the USB.
BUT, the wierd thing, is even though i have the connection, and it is syncronizing with my laptop, i don't have the connection icon on my kjam, instead i had this message (attached).
what does this mean?
Don't know, I have never seen this!!!!
Robin
the strange things keeps coming...
when i wanted to sync my device again this evening, my whole laptop freezes without any responce.
can someone here tell me what's the problem i'm having here? & how to solve it?
i don't wonna format my PC over this.
thanks all in advance.
I have noticed that the synchronisation only happens properly if I connect to the SAME usb port. If I connect to another port, the laptop picks up the connection but won't synchronise.
Connect to the same USB port and voila!!
Hope that helps.
See my reply earlier.
Each different USB port you connect too AS creates a NEW network with a different number on the end of it.
You have to open the network properties for all the networks (with numbers) you intend suing and make sure all the properties are checked.
I use 3 different USB ports on my laptop depending on wether it is docked at home the office or undocked.
I have had to do this procedure for each port but now they ALL work smoothly every time.
Regards.
Robin
i did connect it to the same USB port, but no luck there, the same problem. i uninstalled the AS twice and re-installed it but it's the same.
hi.
i have tried yr solution by ticking all the boxes in the 'new' network properties. won't work though. the sync. icon shows 'connecting'.

Strange.
I know a number of people this worked for.
You could/should also try disabling your firewall and giving it another go.

Hi,
I have been suffering with a persistant Activesync connection problem. It usually connects and syncs fine the first time I boot my machine, but after around five minutes it almost always disconnects (though my Vario II continues to charge). Unplugging and replugging the USB cable does not work and the Activesync icon remains grey. Trying to start the connection manually either from the Vario II or from Activesync on the desktop also does not reconnect the device. In fact the only way to get it to connect again is to reboot my PC.
I'm using Activesync 4.2 downloaded from Microsoft this morning. I've tried deleting and recreating the partnerships, which does not help the issue. I've tried several USB cables which also do not resolve the issue, so I am now asking for your help.
If anyone has any insights into whaty might be happening I would appreciate your help...
Thanks,
Chris
I'm having the same problem, but in my case unplugging the cable from the device and plugging it again usually restarts the sync. Sometimes, however, I have to soft-reset to get it working again. Very annoying.
Hi Chris,
Ive had tons of issues with activesync on my works laptop..... I use a VPN and zonealarm... I used to have tno issues but since I got WM5 wich uses IP address's it always does the same thing as yours.. ive made sure the IP address is allowed in zone alarm.... my colleague also had this issue.. he managed to solve it by using a differnet USB port as his laptop has 3 one is on the side of the machine ... try using a different USB or disable zone alarm if you use it this could be causing the problem.
I sometimes get it to work if I have no VPN client running but as soon as I do use it the active sync stops.
Hope this may help you

I have exactly the same issue with my Vario II, never happened with my Vario and I have changed nothing other than my phone. Makes me think its summin to do with the harware possibly? Anyone else found a cure for this?
I Had the same problems, so I gave up on USB connection with active sync, I have 4 USB ports on my laptop and tried all, I now use bluetooth and works everytime.
There has always been problems with USB and actgive sync, so 4.2 was suppose to fix, but not for me.
I've got the same probelm on my Tytn. I've solve it to delete the Pocket Mechanic :shock: , I've done a S.R. and from now on the A.S. works correctly.
Ciao, Cesare
Had to use my old vario for a bit today, used activesync and it worked fine for the whole time I had it plugged in, got a new Vario II replacement today, got home and its exactly the same, would appear to be a mismatch between Vario II and activesync 4.2, can I connect by wifi?
Hello hmm the problem is if it uses direct or ip ,try go settings - connections - ( usb to pc ) and disable advance network funtctionality.
Hope that works
thanks
I had this problem too - I disabled advanced network capabilites in the "USB to PC" control panel under the Settings/Connections folder, and then Activsync stayed connected after that.
HTC TyTN 7/22/06 ROM
Just given that ago, Took me 5 attempts for the usb to pc connection settings screen to show up but then I realised it had to be plugged in to do it! Duh! What features do I loose by disabling ADVANCE NETWORK FUNCTIONALITY?
After the activesync working fine with my orange spv3100 for 4 weeks it suddenly refused to connect. I un-checked the "advanced functionality" box as suggested and it works again. Many thanks for the solution peeps.
I too would like to know what functions this deactivates.
Same problem, I've installed ActiveSync 4.5beta and now it stay connected, sometimes it disconnects but after restart of the phone it works again, one friend told me that the problem comes from the Activesync in the phone, so may be we have to look for the problem in the phone not in the PC
Activesync 4.2 problem
Hi all,
I too started having the same problems with Activesync 4.2 hanging my phone if left charging overnight. I decided to disable the advance network connection and that worked for a while. Now the phone wont sync AT ALL. It charges, but I can't do anything else. I reinstalled the Activesync 4.2, did a soft reset, off-on to the mobile, turn off-on my computer and still nothing. I will d/l Activesync 4.5 beta to see if that solves the problem, but it looks to be a problem with the Activesync in the mobile and not the one in the computer. I did the troubleshooting and it is detecting the USB connection but does not sync. I would really like to know if wireless sync can be achieved. Will post any fix if I find one. BTW my mobile is about a month and a half.

Sync problems with tytn
I've read through all the messages in this thread and wondered if someone could help me with some problems i've been having with syncing mine with a laptop. Often when I have the device plugged in when i boot up the laptop activesync won't start until i've disconnected the usb cable then reconnected it again-i never had this problem with the imate jam. My second problem arises when sometimes it says on the files section that there are un resolved items???? i then try to resolve the issue and a wizard comes up with add or remove buttons.afraid that i might remove something essential i tried the add button hoping this might resolve the issue-it didn't. i then gave up as nothing worked. after switching the laptop off and then syncing a day later there were no items to resolve so what exactly is happening. how can there be unresolved items one minute and nothing the next.also i hadn't done anything different on the tytn.if i select the add button on the window does it add a copy of the file highlighted and could this affect the operation of the device.Sorry if this seems a little confusing but i never had this problem with an xda exec or an imate jam.
please could someone help a non technical fifty something.

hi,

I agree, where is this option?
I'm running version 4.2 and along the top bar all I'm seeing is:
File - View - Tools - Help
Nothing like "Settings" and/or "Connections" in sight. Under "File" there is the "Connection Settings" option, but nowhere does it mention "Advanced Networking Functionality".......
Can someone explain this please?!
The "Advanced Networking Functionality" is on your phone, not on desktop's activesync.
On WM5, go to Settings -> Connections -> USB to PC and you will find the "Enable Advanced network functionality" option.

Every time I try that, I just get an error message saying: "Failed to disable RNDIS to use Serial".
Has anyone else seen this message? Happens regardless of whether the Vario II is connected by USB or not...
Thanks,
Chris
I'm still getting the RNDIS error, has anyone else come across this? Is there a solution?

Hi Friends and Gurus,
I'm stumped . I cannot get any connection to my PC via USB. I don't get the "du-duh" connect sound. The connection is not present in my network connections.
Here are the steps to reproduce:
Unlocked Cingular 8525, WM5 official update
ActiveSync 4.5 uninstalled and reinstalled on PC
Attach phone to computer via USB cable (in any of 3 USB PC ports)
Phone gets power via USB cable (light on Hermes turns amber), but..
Problem:
No connection sound (du-duh)
No connection visible in network connections
A bit more info:
In messing around, I could have set something incorrectly on the phone. But I'm afraid (and embarassed to admit) I don't know where to start.
I've searched this site and have not found the magic cure.
If you have any tips, suggestions, settings to try, etc., i'd really appreciate it.
Thanks,
Chris
as silly as this sounds... mine wont connect to activesync or mymobiler if I have WiFi enabled on the 8525.
Just pointing that out in case you hadnt tried it
Thanks densmore,
Mine used to work even with WiFi on (so for a while I was in better shape than you ) , but now, it doesn't matter either way (so now I'm much worse off than you ).
I'll keep hoping for other suggestions here, but appreciate your tip.
Chris
try this...
go to device manager and uninstall usb hub and then search for new devices and it will reinstall itself. reboot and try again.
I suppose you have 'enable advanced network functionality' unticked?
If not:
start/settings/connections/usb to pc/ untick
If you have, try ticking it, soft reset, try to connect again.
I suppose you have rebooted your pc/laptop?
deleted the partnership and reformed it?
tried another usb port?
also, this is a useful source of info:

If I think of more, I'll come back.
See http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=318425 for a complete review of MyMobiler
Just another thing to confirm. You have not used the likes of memmaid to remove notifications and accidentally removed repllog entries?
You can use the likes of sktools to confirm that the repllog entries to start Active Sync are present.

probebly this is a stupid request , i am struck with a auto connection to internet option when i connet usb to my computer , i do not get the htc option sceeen any more , now i am not able to sync to my pc or use memory card, please help
Go to Start Menu...Settings...Connections.... USB to PC and then select Activesync.
You can also re-enable the ask me every time option if you like.
thanks tried that .. still does not work
thanks guys , problem solved after restarting my pc
it dosent work for me.... i cannot connect my HD to my Computer. he always wanna start the internet shainrg... please help!
ActiveSync does not allways works properly with all computers. You could try Start Menu...Settings...Connections.... USB to PC and then uncheck the first option after ActiveSync (something like 'activate advanced network functionality' -I am sorry but my OS is in Spanish-).
I had to do this in one of the PCs I sync with HTC HD, though in other case it synced with no problem.
hmm its worked, but the internet sharing are starting too...
hi i have same problem with automatic start internet sharing... It is some solution for me how disable opening internet sharing after connect to usb?
No matter what I do, I can't get rid of this either... Any more thoughts?
Thanks,

This problem seems to have cropped up on at least 3 different threads, and with no sensible fix so far!
I am having problems on my stock Rhodium WWE, where I used to get a choice of AS or Storage card as mass storage, now I just get the internet connection sharing screen.
I have tried the various other fixes presented, but no luck so far.
same problem...
