htc touch HD as modem for htc shift - Shift General

hi everybody
I have an HTC shift with windows 7 on it and an htc touch hd with connection to the internet.
I want to use my touch HD to connect my shift to the internet by using it as a modem but I can't connect it to activeSync ( vista version), the synchronisation do not start even if I try to do it manually. I had the same problem on Vista. Does anyone knows how to solve this problem? thanks a lot

what for ???
just for the modem ???
uhmm.... I know that htc shift already have modem on it, why using another modem ?

what for ???
you need the touch HD just for the modem ?
uhmm.... I know that htc shift has modem on it, so why need another modem ?

Well because otherwise he would have to get two data plans. Man how on Earth can someone ask such an obvious question?

yes you are right, I always have to release the SIM card from my phone and then put it in the shift and then redoing the same thing when I am done with it . it is possible to turn my phone into a wifi router and connect the shift to net using the wifi but the battery will last less longer even if i have a mugen battery . so if anyone has a solution ?

i use a cloned (twin sim) phone sim with unlimited GB net access ...
i use the same number on my shift and on my W810i sony ericcson...
when you want to use your shifts card just deactivate your touch HD and activate shifts modem ...

thanks for your answer, but here in france you have to pay 10 dollars per month to get a twin SIM :s. so it would be better is the solution is free

wizard high pitch audio sound

my wizard, stock tmobile rom, sometimes after sitting a long time, will play sounds about 10 percent faster and higher pitch. clearing the storage did not solve this. its happened twice to me now, any ideas or known workarounds / fixes?
Hi, yes I know this problem, if that happens it's also not possible to get a gprs connection. Happens to me with both HTC Charmer and HTC Prophet (o2 Xda Neo AKU2).
Solution is to switch of the phone part and again on. Maybe a hardware issue because of all the models have that problem, regardless of the firmware.

I wouldnt know about the GPRS since i dont subscribe to it (tmobile GPRS turned into a big RIPOFF after they stopped letting u use tzones to browse with a PDA and now want u to pay 30 instead of 20 for full internet) I still think its a driver issue because all of the models would have the same driver since it is the same hardware
I had this happen on my Cingular 8125 with the stock ROM - but after upgrading to Summiter's 2.16.7.2 ROM I haven't seen this again

No you don't have to install any drivers to get WiFi working (it's not like desktop Windows). Your problem description is incomplete. Please post exact symptoms of your problem. It will help you get the answer you are awaiting.
In connections manager when i tap the wi-fi to turn it on, apperar like is loading someting (i'm not getting any error message), after that the wi-fi is still off.
From Settings -> Connections -> Wireless LAN when i tap Turn On Wireless LAN i'm not getting any reactions, the Wireless refuse tu turn ON.
I install Wireless Today Plugin, the wi-fi is not available in the Today Plugin as well.
Have you already tried a hard reset?

How to do a hard reset , lay the TC on a flat surface and hold down GPS + IE keys and use the pen to reset (hold it a couple of seconds) and then follow the instructions on screen.
Hard Reset is my friend , after hard reset is the same.

Syrius R0 has radio ROM included and should be a confirmed working configuration. If it does not work for you it could mean that there is something wrong with your Polaris hardware. My advice is to flash back original ROM and SPL and return the device for service to HTC. Search for threads regarding returning your device for guarantee reasons.

Can you see if you can download from the HTC site ?
http://www.htc.com/europe/SupportDownload.aspx?p_id=59&cat=2&dl_id=113
With my Orange SN i get: "Sorry, this software download is not suitable for your device."
I use Windows Mobile Device Center X64 v. 6.1 in Vista X64, may this be the problem?
i have exactly the same problem with my Cruise,
it has wm6,0 original SFR
gobar, was your wifi working BEFORE you flashed?
if not then hardware.. if it was then its possible theres another solution.
Wi-fi was working ok with the original Windows Mobile 6 Orange Romania Rom.
1. i try to update without hard spl, at 1% stop & give me someting about vendor id, from then the wi-fi refuse to work.
2. i have SIM Unlock & Hard-SPL and update to official windows mobile 6.1, wi-fi don't work
3. i have try some radio rom & custom rom's, the same
After the update the wi-fi problem apear.
No solution for my problem?

i bought my polaris in hk, and brought it back to japan. when i tried to connect it to my wifi net work at home, it did not detect the network at all.
anyway, i did a little bit of research with my wifi network setting, and found out my polaris detected the network when the wifi channel was set below 10 (or 9?). I was using the network with channel 13, and this was the reason why it did not detect the network (although i don't know why it does not.)
i sent it to htc usa for repair (i spoke with htc hk and japan, but they said i had to talk with htc taiwan or usa. because i had such a hard time to communicate with the support guy from htc taiwan in english, i eventually called htc usa despite i live in asia...), and they fixed it and sent it back to me, which took me ONE MONTH. however, i simply found the problem remained the same, and it did not detect channels over 10... after spending one month to get it fixed...
check your access point setting. if it is set to use a channel over 10, just change it below 10. it worked with mine. g'luck.

My problem with mi Wi-Fi is not the same, my Wi-Fi refuse to start.
I need a debugging software to test the wi-fi hardware, to know it's the wireless hardware or not.

HTC Touch HD as my default modem? Too much for the Blackstone?

Hello
I am going to move to a new building and because is new there is no DSL nor cable yet. It might be available in one week or even in 3 months, no one is able to give me a date. So I will use my HDSPA flat rate until I can use the DSL or cable. Since I do not have any HDSPA modem, only the HTC Touch HD and the HTC P3600 (this one only has 1.8 Mbps download down-link speed) I thought that maybe I could use the HTC Touch HD as my temporary modem but I wonder: Would be 8 hours of daily usage too much for this device? Should I buy a HDSPA modem instead?
Thank you for your recommendations

I mean normal modems become too hot when you do an intensive usage, the Blackstone it is not designed to be just a modem, so... Also maybe even a 3,5G connection will probably make a modem become hotter than a ADSL/cable connection (I am guessing that, I have no idea about it).
I used my Touch HD as modem for my Sony Vaio for about a month without encountering troubles. Yes, it does get hot but if you are in an air-conditioned room the device doesn't get as hot.
I am now using it as a wi-fi router using Walkinghotspot without any problems.
Modem Instruction?
Hi All,
This is probably a dumb question...but where can I find instruction on using Touch HD as a modem for a laptop? Googled it but couldn't quite come up with anything.
I know the rough steps...connect via bluetooth, etc. But not sure what to do after that...and I've tinkered w/o any success...
Thanks!!

You could use internet sharing, some roms have it included do a search see what you find, it can connect via bluetooth or USB and then select ur preference for gprs etc

Wifi problems with Jademan Rom

Hi Folks,
I have fashed my Touch 3G (Orange UK Jade 110) with the latest Jademan rom. Works very well apart wifi connections...
For some reason, using the the inbuilt wifi connection software it very oftem comes back with incorrect key even when I know it has the correct one.
It then takes ages trying to connect before failing..
I have tried WiFi monster to connect and I get similar results...It normally times out before connecting even when sat next to the AP !
Has anyone else had problems with Wifi.. I did the reflash to get rid of Orange UK's UNIQUE service for wifi, hope I made the right choice !!
Any thoughts ??
Thanks,
Phil
Sorry, can't help you out, but I think you have a better change of getting an answer when you ask this in the specific ROM thread (as well).

Connectivity issues

For some reason apps on the market won't download on the download menu I get two of the same files trying to download and it says unsuccessful :s
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App
I face the same problem?
are you with Orange?
Theres some videos out of the browser working in 3G and it seems fast, but the dificulty in obtainning 3G is something i havnt heard of yet :|
Fixed with a restart
I've been roaming outside with mine today, got a HSPDA connection constantly it was very fast on O2.
Yes, orange. I've just changed from GSM only to GSM or WCDMA and it's picked 3G up again, maybe out was as simple as that...
Another silly question. Is it not connected by usb to a pc? When it's comnected as external drive it won't show on th desire.
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App
Today seems to have been fine... 3G and H most of the day.
Check if your wifi uses channels 12 to 14 by any chance. Those are not public domain and HTC phones won't connect to them. Change it to something between 1 and 10.
thanks VERY much you just saved me from throwing my DHD through the window, my wifi was so unstable it was impossible to use , changed to channel 8 and hey presto reliable wifi
cheers
