Hi all,
Just got myself an 02 Exec and so far am pretty pleased with the device.
I've just bought it in to work with me expecting to be able to sync without issue although I need a driver
My disc is at home, and I really wanna get synced today. I've searched for the driver without success, can anyone grab the required file off their disk for me? would be much appreciated!
HI,
the driver is not all you need, as a WM2K5 device, it will only sync with active sync 4.x. So .. just download AS4 .. and sync ;-)

You need Active Sync 4.0 not a driver.
Thanks for the replies peeps, however I don't think this is the case.
I have AS 4.0 with me although it's when I first plug in my Exec that it asks me to install this driver.
With AS 4.0 installed it just can;t find my device, the same happened to me at home. I just went into device manager and browsed the offending hardware to the CD where it installed the driver and then AS 4.0 could see my Exec.
Any ideas as to where I can find this driver?
Do you have full admin rights to the PC?
I am on a locked down one where I can't change anything.
Before I got the tech dudes to install AS, the PC kept asking for drivers.
Can't say much more, that's just what happened to me.
I think the message was 'installing windows mobile device...' and then wanting the driver.
Hi mate,
Yeah sure I have full admin rights. I'm really don't think AS4.0 will solve this as like I say the same happened at home until I installed this driver from the applications CD that came with my Exec.
Anymore ideas?
Try it on a different USB port.
I see this happen with a lot of devices. Plug it in one port, Windows doesn't recognize. Plug it to the next one, and it works.
i have to turn me JJ off for 5 secs, then plug into usb and its fine, if i do it when its on i get a malfunctioning usb device pop on my pc
I`m having similare problems....
Full Admin rights
Windows XP SP2
AV4.0 installed
But keep getting "not Connected" whenever I hover over the AV4 icon.
and I have checked that my AV4 on my Exec has "Synchronize all PCs using this connection".
After reinstalling a few times.
Am very stuck....
check this out....

Many many thanks...
Seem like I need to spend a little more time on the MS Windows Mobile site.
Thanks for the help chaps.
Seems AFTER installing AS 4.0 I then went to device manager and clicked the offending hardware after which it installed the driver.
Thanks for the help
Good Morning to all,
Firstly hello to all on the forum, got my Touch HD at the weekend and have already found this forum very useful, especially in getting the favourtie people pictures to stop looking so crap.
I now have a problem I need to ask about. I have plugged my HD into my Vista 64bit machine and it picks up fine, lets me access the HD as if it was an external source. I then managed to set it up via activesync, not through choise just couldnt find anything else. Got it connected and syncing via bluetooth as well.
I have now come into work and plugged it into my work XP SP2 machine and it starts installing all the windows mobile stuff and then comes up with could not complete blah blah, when you click for more info its an unknown device.
Is this a driver issue, i.e. do I need to download one for my XP machine to recognise modern day tech?
Have got the number for HTC support but thought I would ask here first as I really like the way everyone manages to explain everything so clearly.
Thanks in advance
Jody
You should just have to install Active Sync 4.5 on your XP machine and off you go.
Appoligies if you did this, but you didn't mention above
If you still having problems, what's the full error text?

Activesync is installed, and has been uninstalled and re-installed just to make sure.
The message states that the USB device is not recognised by Windows and need to try re-installing it.
Thing is, it did just about manage a connection earlier ActiveSync showed connecting and then popped up and said unable to connect to device press ok to troubleshoot and ran some scans.

Had similar problems, but it was the Windows XP firewall blocking activecync
Thanks, but we stopped the windows firewall client when we were investigating this anyway.
Possible solution
Good day,
My XP didnt detect HD as well. Im using Active sync 4.5. To work around this, go to:
Settings>USB to PC>Enable faster data sync
Uncheck this option. This solved my problem.
Good luck. Cheers
Hello, have tried unticking that box as well.
I have uninstalled Activesync again, and reinstalled off of the CD. All installs ok, plug the device in for the first time and select activesync on the handset, it installs the pocketUSB Snc on the PC and then comes up your device could not be installed properly. Open device manager and the PocketUSB Sync shows with a yellow explanation mark on it saying that the device could not be started.
Have now also tried it on an XP SP3 VM Machine, it originally kicked up same windows error. Then ActiveSync on the VM and device showed connecting, then they both stopped and no further.
Problem fixed.... Useful hint for anyone reading this... dont use a different miniUSB cable, or make sure you certainly dont use a cheap one.... I borrowed someone's in the office who was sinking another HTC device and it worked first time.
Thanks to all your inputs

Hi, does anyone have the drivers for the shift that are not available on HTC's website???
mianly the Sonix USB Webcam...
i updated with Windows Update and it 'broke' the drive...funnily enough it also happens on hp and asus laptops...
anyway i need that driver if anyone has one...cheers
Why don't you update the driver that not recognized by device manager. Access the internet and update may it works. Good luck
Roll the driver back to the previous version, via the device manager.
oll back was a good idea but too late now as i dleted the edvice and ticket the 'delete drivers' option too.
so yeah back to my original question....
does anyone have the sonix camera drivers???
Ooooops , I've not noticed that you made updating for your driver by device manager. Any way, I've took a packup for my drivers of my shift using Driver Magician. May it helps you I hope

Shift cam driver missing
After uninstalling Dorgem, my HTC Shift's webcam driver seems to have disappeared. Windows update is not picking anything up to replace it.
Under my Device Driver, the only entry under "Sound, video and game controllers" is "High Definition Audio Device".
I didn't recognise any of the HTC drivers as being for the Shifts' camera.
Can anyone identify for me what driver I need for the cam, and possibly where I can download it?
I up this thread for a similar problem: my shift webcam disappeared from my hardware list, it's simply no more present or recognised in my hardware list, even if i attempt to detect it as new hardware.
tried almost anything, any clue?
My web-cam started to disappear since I installed an xp compatible logitech software for a cordless keyboard and mouse. A couple of days ago, I upgraded the Win7 beta I had for a Pro version and even though I decided not to install that logitech software, I still get the same problem, the webcam is gone and I have to chat without the video feature...
Therefore, the only solution I have come to discover for now, is to completely turn off the device and disconnect all devices hooked to it either by the usb or vga port.
Once everything is disconnected, I would turn on the device and start win7 normally and voila, my webcam is back again and I can reconnect every device until I restart the system and need the webcam again, having to do the same process again and again...
the drvers for shift are still
the drivers for shift are still their on htc site the reason why you cant find it they took it off on certain regions try europe or other you willl find it
I recently had to replace my notebook, new one came with Vista, also coincided with purchase of Touch Pro 2.
my current kaiser (WM 6.0) works fine, connect usb, vista fires up mobile device center.
connect pro 2 (WM6.1) via usb , nothing, device center does not start up.
run active sync on the pro 2, Sync button is grayed out. I have set 'sync all pc's....' to usb in the connections screen.
have checked other threads but so far come up blank.
can anyone point me in the right direction to possible fixing this, I need to reload some software not to mention I would like to and would like to check out some of the roms on this sight.

Have you tried starting mobile device center manually? Also had some troubles now and then, reboot of my pc and softreset of my phone usually fixed my problems. Else most responses will probably include the usual: remove all partnerships and/or reinstall mobile device center.
Btw, does your device show up in your hardware list or under my computer when connect it to your USB port?
mobile devioce center (Vista) and htc pro 2
have tried pc reboots and htc reset, no go.
If i connect my kaiser it appears as a device under my computer and device center picks it up.
connect the pro 2, does not appear as a device under my computer and if device center running does not attempt a connect, if device center not running vista does not start it
also no partnerships currently set up.
did have a kaiser one , deleted this when the pro 2 did not connect

Well as far as I know Windows should at least show your device under My Computer, even without a partnership or without even having Mobile Device Center installed.
So my best guess is there is some conflict which prevents your TP2 from even connecting to your notebook. Have you tried connecting it to a desktop PC? Or are you trying to connect it through an USB hub or something? If so it is possible the hub isnt delivering enough power.
I had the same issue and ending up hard resetting my phone before I figure what I did wrong. Go to settings on TF3D then all settings. Go to connections, and under usb to pc, select active sync. If it says disk drive it will not work in active sync. Also if the enable faster data sync is checked...uncheck it. Sometimes this causes an issue.
Go to settings and choose USB->PC Settings. Here you can disable "fast synch". Now it should work, if not, activate "fast synch" ^^
YOu might want to re-instal active sync ( device center ), I had a simulair problem, and it was solved
gz reb3lzrr
rodium and vista sync
firstly thanks for the many replies.
still no go
reinstall device center
rebooted pc, reset phone.
tried with a xp laptop with active sync, still no go.
neither pc recognises the rodium phone.
when I attach my kaiser each pc 'chimes' , ie recognises the attachment and activesync or device center start up and connect
rodium nothing.
tried each of the usb ports and couple of cables, all work for kaiser non work for rodium.
Hi. I have had the same problems. Disable fast sync like my man neonoxDE said. That will help you. Altough it helped me. With Win7 you can sync with that option enabled.
(QUOTE: Go to settings and choose USB->PC Settings. Here you can disable "fast synch". Now it should work, if not, activate "fast synch" ^^)
thanks tried that as well, still no joy.
Its has if the phone is not telling the op system that its there. Ie the interupt to the op system that happens when a usb device is attached is not happening, or being ignored.
i had the same problem. i had to uncheck the box advanced network funtions. that wen you go in to settings and usb to phone.
that was the problem with my phone sync.
sorry for bad english.
Ugh
Just went through this all tonight. Also coming from a Kaiser (AT&T Tilt).
To get it functional, I had to:
1.) Add Remove Programs
2.) Remove Windows Mobile Device Center
3.) Remove Windows Mobile Device Center Driver Update (if you installed it).
4.) Disconnect USB from phone.
5.) Reboot
6.) Reinstall Windows Mobile Device Center 6.1 from CD (Sprint here).
7.) Install Windows Mobile Device Center Drvupdate. (WMDC dir on Sprint CD, called drvsomething or other, depending on if you're 64 bit or x86 on your PC).
8.) Then had to "Clear Storage" on the phone and let it clear itself (a simple reset did not let this work)
9.) Once soft reset was completed, I could connect the phone, it then found it, and worked correctly.
Yeesh.
Unchecking the box everyone is saying didn't have an effect for me, though I tried it many times before going all nuclear.
Thanks for this.
Tried this on my vista laptop still no go.
If I connect my kaiser 'installs device driver software' pop up displays and when this is finished windows mobile device center starts up.
Initial connection of pro2, nothing
After having the pro 2 connected for at least 45 mins I did get an an install device driver message, the device was unknown and device center did not start up.
so it appears that the pro2 was recognised has an unkown device
additional info
loaded down a usb moniter onto my laptop.
When I plug in the Kaiser usb monitor shows connection of the device on the specific port.
Unplug this and plug in the PRO2 onto the same port nothing shows as being connected.
rapidlycomming to the conclusion problem with the data pin outs on the USB, does anyone know of a diag program that could test this out or an easy way to check this.
save me the initial cost of checking by a repairer (which in the UK can be steep)
Although my TP2 will sync with USB, most of the time I sync via a bluetooth connection.
Have you tried doing it that way?
Maybe this will work.
One unconventional way to fix this, is to go to your phones activesync. select menu, then change it to bluetooth sync. After that, soft reset phone and connect via usb.
Windows Update
Try conducting a Windows update manually when your phone is connected via USB cable.

Want to start this by saying I'm pretty sure this is a pc issue rather than phone issue, I've had similar problems with every android I've owned. I installed drivers through the Nexus 4 toolkit and the tutorial by thesmokingandroid, my PC doesn't even acknowledge the phone. I get the beep when it connects and disconnects but the phone doesn't show up anywhere like my computer or device manager at all. Like I said my older phones would connect most of the time but almost always randomly disconnect/connect. I feel like it's likely a driver thing, never had problems with my iPhones or other things like mouse or keyboard. Is there a way other than a clean windows install to just clean my pc of any android related things like SDK or drivers? Also it's a custom built pc with 5 ports running win7, no ports will work. I added an in tower sd hub and feel like the problems might have started around then but I'm not sure on that. Any suggestions would be nice, not being able to connect my phone is an issue with no removable memory...
edit: Wanted to add that sometimes when I only have my mouse, keyboard, and Xbox controller connected I get those little connect/disconnect beeps at random and the bubble that says this device can perform faster. I'm pretty sure my ports are 2.0 too but I'm not sure how to check that.

I having the same problem. When I'm in fastboot mode my pc doesn't show my phone but when my phone is powered on it shows up on my pc. Anyone know what I'm doing wrong?
Anyone? I'm ready to try reinstalling Windows but would really like to know if there's something a less time consuming I could try first. I can't root or anything so I'm going to have to try something soon.
Same thing happens to me a couple days ago.
My laptop recognized the phones, but it showed nowhere in Device Manager. Adb could see my phone, but as soon as I went to bootloader, my laptop said An USB port is unrecognized
SOLUTION: I use Nexus Root Tool Kit and Google NExus 4 Tool Kit to REMOVE the nexus 4 driver, everything related to nexus 4 is removed. I only used these tools to uninstall the driver, not to install them.
Then I turned off the Windows 7's Automatic Update Driver by Window Update (or some similar names). This is important, because the driver that windows install autimatically doesn't covery the Bootloader Driver. I dont remember how exactly I turned the Automatical Diver Update off. Maybe when the popup "unrecognized USB" appear, I pressed it and there was an option to do that. Or you can search google.
A link to turn the Windows 7 Automatic Driver Installation: http://www.sevenforums.com/drivers/82054-turn-off-windows-7-automatic-driver-installation.html
Restart my computer after that. THen download driver from this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2010312 ONly the driver.
THen Install it from DEvice Manager by plugging my phone again.
Finish.
I had the same issue,here's the fix:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2036400
In my case,there was no wpdmtp.inf file in windows/inf,hence device wasnt recognised.
I'll give that a shot when I get home thanks.

Yeah, what causes so much trouble for me is the Windows-7-automatic-driver-installation. It helped me sometimes, but not with the NExus 4 :|
