8525, sync w/ USB 5% of the time, no changes seem to change anything.
did the notification edit here on xda
uninstalled/reinstalled activesync
upgraded to 4.5
deleted partnership
uninstalled firewall
checkdisk
ran the resync program
installed office, .net 2.0, activesync 4.5 on entirely different computer
[edit: added for clarification]
tried unchecking the advanced connection box in start>settings>connections>usb to pc
[/edit]
when connecting to either computer, i get the "usb device seen" chime, but not the "i can do something with this device" jingle
get the "active sync cannot connect with this device" popup, run the diags and everything is okay. ms site politely informs me that the cause of my problem is that the device cannot connect to the pc.
anything i missed? i gave up on it 6mo ago when i got the phone bc i got bluetooth sync to work but now i want to flash to wm6
Thanks
start>settings>connections>usb to pc.
Untick the box. See if that helps?
Try this procedure step-by-step
1. make sure your phone is not connected to the computer in any way
a. Bluetooth off
b. WIFI off
c. USB cable not connected
2. Run spybot S&D (I always do this when the computer misbehaves - and make no mistake your computer is misbehaving)
3. Terminate all other running programs
4. Hook your phone to the usb cable and the usb cable to the computer. (don't worry if it syncs or not)
5. Open Device Manager and select Network Adapters
6. Uninstall the Windows Mobile Device
7. Disconnect the Phone
8. Open the Control Panel "Add/Remove Programs" and uninstall Active Sync
9. Reboot the computer
10. Connect to the internet and get a fresh copy of Activesync 4.5 and install it.
At this point if you can back up your PIM to the storage card or something it would be great because I suggest you do a hard reset of the phone. go to the settings page and select System. Tap the clear storage icon and follows the instructions to reet the phone.
11. Reset phone as above
12. When phone reboots, connect it to the computer via the usb cable.
Phone should sync from now on.
Good Luck
PS.
MrVanx is right, that could help but it will limit your phones capability. However if my method fails that may be your only option short of reflashing the phone with some other ROM.
I've tried MrVanx' solution also, just forgot it in the original post. It seems to sync more often when the box is ticked anyhow.
I don't have a problem with hard reseting or flashing. I'm going through this hassle for the sole reason of flashing to schaps 4.31
Ill try that when i get home tonight
Say I do a sprite backup before hard resetting the phone. After I do the hard reset, I restore the sprite backup. Will my lack of syncing problem come back? I assume it will.
After the hard reset and the initial sync on the "fresh WM5 install," I should proceed from there with the WM6 install, correct?
I have a TyTn II and experiencing a similar problem as sook..
I did all the steps except for these:
5. Open Device Manager and select Network Adapters
6. Uninstall the Windows Mobile Device
The thing is i cant find my mobile device anywhere in the device manager or in the network adapters subcategory. Any ideas?

Yes proceed. And no I don't think the failure to sync problem is related to the backups so that should be safe

Not sure how a TyTN II looks to the device manager. try this instead:
open the device manager and click on the USB devices subcat.
Then connect your phone to the computer via the usb cable. pay attention and uninstall the usb device that appears when you hook up.
Then rescan. Reboot both the computer and the phone and see if that helps

Before you try flashing make sure you have the Hard-SPL V7 bootloader installed.
You can flash without activesync tho.... activate the bootloader and connect your usb cable. If the tricolor screen indicates a usb connection then you can run the RUU wrapper, follow the usual steps and it should flash just fine.
You activate the bootloader by pressing and holding the "Power" and "OK" buttons and depressing the reset with your stylus (the OK button you use has to be the one next to the jog wheel)
I can't find my Hermes in device manager either. I'll try doing the flash through the bootloader i guess.
Did you try un-checking the "Enable Advanced Network Functionality" box as mentioned in Reply #1? That fixed it with mine. It would sync with my WinXP work PC, but not my WinXP Home pc, unchecking that box fixed it. Been fine ever since....

AT&T 8525 USN Syncing problem ...
I had the same problem too ... fortunately I had a simple fix.
I made sure that I only use the USB/mini-USB cable that came with my AT&T 8525. If I use a USB that came from a different device (like another phone or camera), it doesn't want to sync, except once in a blue moon.
The other USB cables may charge it, but won't sync it.
I've read elsewhere in this site that our 8525's can be picky with their pinouts on the USB, so this might be the issue. I hope it's something this simple for you!
Hope this helps!
it's a thought. ill dig through my drawer of cables and pull out all the usb/mini usb cables. no idea if I'm using the original or not.
however 6 mo ago when i gave up on the thing the first time i know it was the correct cable

sometimes cables go flakey, but the cable we use is standard not proprietary so any A - miniusb cable should work.
Anyway the procedure you outlined above should have worked, am I to understand you still have the ATT ROM? If so talk to them about this problem.
If not access the bootloader again and hook up your usb cable. Does USB appear at the bottom of the screen?
Are you using the usb adapter that came with the phone? If not try to go back to that. The pinouts are the same as a miniusb but the form factor makes for a better fit and regular miniusb jacks can cause nonsyncs.
If you aren't getting "USB" at the bottom of the screen it is either a bad cable, a bad usb port (either at the comp or your phone), bad usb drivers, or just bad hardware in the phone. If any of these is the problem, all you can do is talk to AT&T hopefully before the warranty expires.
Sorry I wasn't more help mate.
The cable I've been using is the one that came with the phone. I tried the cable that came with my mp3 player and got the same results.
I do still have the out-of-the-box ATT Rom, however, the steps you outlined did not fix my problem. I did notice that my device appears as "HTC USB Sync" which I found strange. Is this normal?
USB does appear when I connect the phone in bootloader to the computer. I've tried two USB ports on two separate computers. Both computers are completely up to date with MS and drivers.
I suppose I'll go bother the people at ATT.
If I'm done with the ATT Rom, can I do all the flashing through the USB connection to the bootloader?
hey guys im having the same problem (TyTN II) it'll charge, but wont sync or show in device manager (i am using the original cable though)
i've tried to go into bootloader, but it doesnt say 'usb' at the bottom like it should, instead it says 'serial' i've tried diff usb ports, i've also unticked the advanced network box, softreseted, and hardreseted still no go...any ideas?? (im using alex's wm6.1 rom, could wm6.1 possibly have something to do with it?)
ActiveSync BOOSTER

Hi, i have a problem, my diamond doesn't connect to my pc anymore, not with active sync, not as a driver and not as a internet modem, i need to connect it so i can flash to a new rom to fixe a issue i have (my diamond freezes and does hard resets after that, all the time) to fix it i need to flash tock rom>hard reset>my rom>hard reset, but this won't work if i can't see a way to flash my phone ...
I'm not sure because I don't use XP, but do you not need WM Device Center or something?
And what format (wipe) memory to default from mobile, i mean main (not internal storage). i know that mobil will go to "preinstall" stadium...... if u dont undertand u lose everything on program memory (contacts, sms but u can backup it). If u do it u have clean rom because every rom have a shadow install copy.
there is no problem i thing

Thank you for your reaction too! No, you mean a hard reset, i allready did this a couple of times, the strange thing is that it doesnt work after a hard reset too, i allready backed my settings(contacts,sms,etc.) up since the problem started but it has no sence restoring it if it keeps auto hard-resetting itself...
Strange thing i noticed too is that when i connect my phone to the net adapter it thinks i'm connecting to a PC and it will ask me to chose an option(a.sync/file disk/ internet modem)
I dont know but my permanent problem is that every rom have checked faster data sync on usb sync and my vista doesnt recognize this... i dont know why is permanently enabled but for me this is not working.
but for u. it can be registry problem..... any registry cleaner or backup from other rom? just an idea

Fysical port, COM port or Computer(allready done)
bump, this just became a major issue i downloaded diamimg.nbh to internal storage and flashed to default rom but my USB still is not working.. please someone help me out ?
maybe your USB Port is broken or dirty? you ever tried to clean it? (turn your phone off, remove the battery, take a needle and take all the dust and fluff/lint out)
can you charge your phone via usb?
I had the same problem with XP. Glad I have also a mac ;-)
I "solved" the problem by leaving the phone connected to USB and restarted the PC. Then it worked but only if leave it in USB. When you pull it of you have to do it again :-(
Hope that helps temporarly

I have two charger, one ist the original from HTC, and the other is a normal plug with the miniusb on the other side, sometimes when I plugin the non-original I get the same message (USBtoPCPoppUp).
The reason is that not all pins have good contact, maybe you have to clean your usb connector with some "hard" cleaningstuff (alcohol(not the sweet stuff.. take it from a pharmacy!) or you can try rubbing alcohol (my favorite! ).
you could also try another USB cabel if you have one
So just recently my usb and sd card decided to malfunction. My usb will charge via my pc but it comes up on the pc (Vista 32bit) as 'Windows cannot recognise this device' my drivers are up to date. However in my device management i did notice that my 'Mobile Device's' section had gone
I also tried formatting my sd card using a card reader, but it wont format it
I want to flash a new ROM, any way of doing it without an activesync connection? i managed to get the NBH image on my sd card by using another storage card but i still couldnt establish an activesync connection.
Any help would be much appreaciated as this is driving me crazy
Thanks, Dan.

Have you tried a simple thing like rebooting the pc? That sounds however more like a hardware issue on the pc or phone. What happens if you plug another usb device into the port eg a usb flash drive, does that pick up? In your device manager, are all usb devices functioning properly? Perhaps try to roll back the drivers on the ports if possible and re-install the usb driver update.

If you've changed usb cables, and you've checked the usb to connection setting is not on advanced, then it means the usb port & possibly main board are damaged. Did you hardspl your device?

Whenever i plug in my i9000, it just pop up an error msg ÜSB Device not recognized. I'm trying to get Kies to recognize my i9000
I tried following this but it doesnt work at all.
it worked for me on kies, but i didn;t like it anyways
What i did was go to settings --> about phone --> usb settings
and try the other options (i'm using media player option, not sure why mass storage doesn't work)
Did you try to change the usb ports on your pc (stick the cable into different usb ports)?

What OS are u running?
Could also have something to do with the number of irq's on your motherboard.
PC's older then aprox. 3/4 years have less irq's and can have trouble with much external devices

Q: Are there any notifications (on screen, backlight of buttons, ...) about missed calls, new mails, sms? Is there any notification when u charge the battery and the battery is fully charged?
Thanks in advance.
The default USB connection is to activate Samsung Kies. You'll have to go to settings->About Phone->USB Settings to change. If it doesn't work after changing, soft reset the phone and try again.
Caused me a bit of head scratching until I went through the options.
Now am having same problem, can'r see mass storage in my computer.
I think I read you need to enable USB Debugging then it will work. for both of you I believe.
With USB debug i can only use adb, nothing works. If i disable debug i can copy files via MTP protocol but mass storage doesn't work.
Edit.
Found the problem, it doesn't mount it self like Desire/N1 i had mount it my self. All working.

If you want kies to work with the phone, dont kill MTP.. But kies is acting weird, soemtimes it doesnt see the phone, but after unplug and replug it works again.. I've given up on kies actually, over 100MB to download and worst than some beta software i've used.
also, i cannot get samsung apps to work on kies, it just error or timeout.. you guys hv any luck?
I haven't tried kies yet, i'll try when i get home from work.
Anybody know how to mount on a Mac? I tried changing the USB settings to Mount/Media, no luck. Any help would be appreciated.

Did you try to change your USB Connection setting from 'Charging' to 'File Transfer'?
Also, if in case you're using a cable other than the provided USB-C data cable, are you sure that it's a data cable and not just a charging cable?
