Have tmobile dash 3g (maple) with tmobiles wm61 on it. wanna reflash to clean wm61 to use on at&t network. Sync sees phone and says connected. Launch flash software and it sees phone, sees current version and displays new version to be installed. It starts and then the computer beeps and says disconnected. Flash failes. Happening on windowx xp pro with activesync and on windows 7 with windows mobile device center. Any suggestions/help greatly appreciated.

Hey, I have a Mogul through sprint and actually pay the $40 a month for the PAM feature. It works great most of the time by USB tether, which I prefer because it keeps the phone charged. My problem is that after a random amount of time, sometimes a few minutes, sometimes an hour or so, the connection no longer sends or receives packets. the phone still reads connected, but the vista network connection status screen says (not responding) in the title bar. I've made sure my NDIS driver is up to date, and I've searched for other people who might have had the same problem, but all I can find are people troubleshooting methods to avoid paying for PAM. WMWifi and pdanet and stuff are great, but i need a hand with the legit PAM if anyone has any experience with it. (Oh, and my phone is running 2.17 rom and 1.47 radio that came on it)
Ok, so it seems to be that when I plug in the usb cable, even if I've already started the phone as modem connection, ActiveSync still starts, and vista doesn't always seem to give the pam connection priority. Is there any way to disable auto-start of activesync on the device? there is no activesync on vista, its their windows mobile device center junk and it has no options or preferences at all.

I think there's an option where you can disallow USB connections. I'd try that. I've been using PAM on vista since we figured out how to beat the tethering charges using the reg hack with no problems. I have noticed that activesync tries to connect to it though, and usually what I do is have an active connection first, plug it in while I'm hitting connect and it usually works fine. You might try that too.
Good luck!
BTW, you might try updating your ROM to one of DCD's releases...they work much better than the stock rom IMO.
I have found out via trial and error, when you liberate Shift, the automated process of modem connecting via Snapview to Vista becomes a manual process.
I do keep USB Tool always attached, however, when you place Shift in hibernation mode, the Internet Sharing disconnects.
Is there any way to automate the process that Internet Shaing could be always connected or automatically connect when Vista comes back up?
I don't have this problem
Are you 100% sure ?
My liberated and not-liberated version of WinMo always pass the internet through to Vista, HOWEVER, one must observe some patience...
If I boot Vista cold, when booted, it will take another 1-2 minutes from 3G to work, without doing anything to the machine.
If you get impatient, like I did, nothing seems to work well, if you kill the modem, and re-enable it, it might work, it might not
I just wait and it always work(ed) With old Vista driver pack, and with new, liberated or not... it's always around 90 seconds after resuming from hiberantion, or cold boot.

My experience is that, after hybernate or sleep state, sometimes there's a USB error and when my SD card is not recognized correctly (USB problem) the sharing bridge to 3g connection (bridge between winmo and vista) stops working also. So if my device doesn't recognize the SD card correctly I hve to reboot to have 3g availability.
My firm just upgraded my notebook to Vista Enterprise 32-bit (against my wishes!). My Mogul is running the most recent Sprint/HTC-supplied ROM, 3.56.651.0. Under XP, I had no problem tethering using the built-in WM "Internet Sharing" app over USB.
Under Vista, no joy.
I've tried a thousand things. I've downloaded the most recent version of WMDC. After disabling "Enable advanced network functionality" in Connections -> USB to PC, I was able to get WMDC to see the device, xfer files, sync, etc. But still no joy on tethering.
The steps I'm following (that worked on XP):
(1) on the device, I fire up Internet Sharing, select USB, and hit Connect; the phone connects to Sprint's Phone as Modem service (which I'm paying for) fine.
(2) I plug the device into notebook via USB cable
(3) the notebook complains "Windows needs to install driver for your Generic RNDIS" and offers "Locate and install driver software (recommended), "Ask me again later", or "Don't show...". I select "Locate and Install..."
(4) the notebook says it's installing the driver, but then complains:
=======
Windows found driver software for your device but encountered an error while attempting to install it.
Remote NDIS based Internet Sharing Device
A device attached to the system is not functioning.
=======
and then the driver install windows complains:
=======
Device driver software was not successfully installed
Please consult with your device ...
Generic RNDIS Failed
=======
Has anyone gotten _THIS COMBINATION_ (i.e., Vista on the computer, plus a Sprint Mogul running ROM 3.56.651.0) to work? I'm at my wits end.
Thanks!

A quick [non]update, if you're having this problem too... No joy from hours of internet searching and posting on other boards.

i use wmwifirouter to tether via usb/wifi, so i guess you could try that. But i don't think it'll make a difference.
For a while, my vista ultimate wouldn't detect my phone via activesync, i did a repair on it and it fixed. It could probably be the usb driver problems.
I also installed windows 7 to play around, the usb tether worked on that also
I discovered a short while ago that the Media Net was needed in the drop down under Network Connections on the Internet sharing app.
Not sure if ya still looking for a fix but in vista you have to download/install Windows Mobile Device Center then plug your phone and wait for it to detect it. Once the sync is set up disconnect and boot up the internet sharing hit connect then hook up the usb cable. BTW using internet sharing with vista sucks ass cause it randomly connects and disconnects.
I have been using "Wireless Router" for a year and a half now on my XP desktop. It works great, now I have just purchased a laptop w/ Vista Home Premium 64 bit and I get an issue with drivers too.
I have WMDC installed but the system will not recognize my Mogul 6800 as a modem.
If anyone has an idea of were to get the driver or knows any other parameter settings we would appreciate it. I also will update my finds as I search.
BTW, Wireless Modem has a non detection feature if your are interested.
My Mobile device Center does not work. I've installed 6.1 then I've uninstalled it as well.Tried 6 diff USB ports too. It wont let me connect to it. I can connect thru Zune which indicate there is connection but not thru WMDC. I would like to reload win7 on my phone since now it reboots every 4 min but connection to USB is non-existing. Please help

Hi.
I'm a Newbie here. Please help me seniors. I hava a T-Mobile MDA Vario II. Recently its display crashed. And all I get is a White frozen QVGA Screen. . Now the hardware is not my problem. The device worked well even the Touchscreen worked well. I started using the mobile as an INTERNET MODEM with PDANet v2.00. And I will operate the device with MyMobiler v1.25. When I connect my mobile, My Vista will show it as HTC USB SYNC connected. everythng went fine. But recently, Due to a fatal power cut the System and mobile Both Restarted automatically. Whats happening now is,
1. Windows shows the device as Pocket PC instead of HTC USB SYNC.
2. MyMobiler shows Nothing but a Balloon saying "Running on your mobile"
3. PDANet says " Connection failed. Error 8036".
And when I reconnect, the mobile was recognised as Unknown device.
I tried reinstalling windows too. But no use. It still shows up Pocket PC and not HTC USB SYNC. Also, when I try to make a call to the SIM Card inserted, it says the number is switched off. This means that the SIM is disabled. Please help me what Can I do to get my device back. Thanx in advance. pls mail me.
