are you using the beta Vista? you need to download the software call windows mobile device center.

Hi, I'm useing Vista Ultimate, no beta, and I still have MDC, but when I connect PPC Vista try to search and download some drivers without success and it doesn't allow me to sync. Previously I was using MDC with HTC P3600 with no problem...

have you try connect your p3600 and see whether it sync?

I can't test P3600 because I gave it away. Here it is what I get when I try to sync:

I don't read your language, but based on what you've said, try checking windows update, while your athena is connected. Perhaps, there are files for you to download after you connect. I have Vista Ultimate as well, and the drivers did install when I first synced, so you should be able to have them too.

Really I dont' know what could it be. However the message window say that:
it's necessary to install GENERIC RNDIS DRIVER
What the hell!!!!
Now I'm trying under XP and I have no problem...what could it be? Any suggestion?

I'm using Vista Business with Dopod U1000 and it runs flawlessly.
But I was getting Hell with Dopod 900 WM6 and Vista synchronization. So much problems, bugs, and inconsistencies.

Ohhh, thats what it says. Microsoft supply's in most cases generic remote NDIS drivers for at least USB, so vendors won't have to create their own specific drivers (or so I've read, anyway ). Do you run Vista 64? I've heard of 'RNDIS driver missing' issues with Vista 64. You may also want to check your startup disk you received with your Athena. I realize you use WMDC, but there may the RNDIS drivers bundled with Activesync, that you may be able to pull out. Just a thought, and other than that, I'm not sure what else to say, except look on the net. Good luck, I can only imagine how frustrating this must be for you.

Just to let you know i also run Vista Ultimate 64, and uses WMDC, the first time i connect my DOPOD U1000, it install the driver straight away without any problem, then i can start sync with no problem.

I'm running Vista 32. About startup disk it could only install Activesync and really I can't fiugure out how to extract drivers needed. About net solution, Vista couldn't find drivers on line...

off topic question to mystic blue..
can you post your avatar as a large image?
thanks..it looks interesting your UI..

Here are a few screenshots. Using Wisbar Advance 2, Wisbar Advanced Desktop, Weather Panel, and Pocketbreeze.

UHm very very OT...please some advice about my problem related to this post will be welcome...

It seems that it cant recognize device...

I Found solution!!!
It's a WMDC bug that start to find RNDIS drivers in wrong folder. So all I had to do was to force it finding drivers in correct folder: C:/windows
Now I can sync!!!
Here it is reference...in italian

Got mine working with 64bit windows vista. just deleted that file.

YOU ROCK!!!
YOU ARE THE MAN!!!! You don't have an Idea of how many hours I spend searching a solution for get my htc wizard recognized, your last comment on force the driver search on c:\windows solve my problem too...
But not also with my phone even with a lot of hardware that I can't make get recognized...
Vista seems to be a real pain in.... anyways I don't know how many research I have left but, I have two vista x32 home premiun edition computers one made by gateway and the other by samsung.
And I notice that the samsung one doesn't have any problem recognizing hardware, so I entered to the device manager to see the drivers and I notices must of them run under the 6.0.6000.16389 vista_rtm .....) version and I found that this Driver Kit it's availiable on windows connect for beta testers, so I decide to download them, lets see if this driver kit solve many issues with my gateway.

New Version WMDC 6.1 is available!
New version is available in Microsoft website,you can download freely and install!
It should solve most of the problems!
I'm using Dopod U1000 with Vista Ultimate and WMDC 6.1 without any problem!
My only concern is I'm unable to 'reflow' pdf documents using Vista!(It was very easy with Active Sync4.5 & XP)
Any idea to overcome this problem?
plz share!

i have dopod 595, and now i using vista ultimate 32, i cannot sync my outlook. please advice

vista don't recognize hermes

Please note that with the "old" notebock, with vista too, i have use the Hermes without problem.
Just connect via usb and all works fine.
Now with the new notebock (same os (wm6.0 in ppc, and vista home in the notebock)) i have problems.
Vista dont recognize hermes.
so i cant connect ppc to notebock.
Some ona have idea how can i do a connection and a sync with vista.
Ps
i have install the wmdc but dosent works.
Please help.
pps
i have try to unceck enable advanced network funcionality, but when i do this i receive this error:
Fallied to disable RNDIS to use serial.

nobody can help me?

Damn
im going be crazy.
if i use internet sharing and conect the pda with notebook all works fine.
Pc find the rnids device and i can go to internet.
But if i try to sync the pc dont reconize the ppc...
welcom to the VISTA world

I've had nothing but issues with Vista and WM6 on my Hermes.
The few things I can suggest.
1) As you say Disable the Advanced networking....
2) Connect directly to a USB port, not through a hub.
3) Try soft-resetting your phone between connection attempts.
4) Remove associations between Vista and your phone.
I find that the first time I connect it everything's good, but on subsequent attempts it's hit and miss.

If you are using vista, there's an update for Windows Mobile software on the microsoft website.
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/devicecenter.mspx
you need to install 6.1 for it in order for WM6 to work with vista.
Cheers

If he is using the same version of WM Device center on both computers and i am assuming he is, then i doubt it will fix the problem by downloading the latest version as i have that version installed on both my pc's.
I had the same problem, where windows just detected the device as an unknown device and therefore wouldnt let me sync.
right click on my computer and click manage, then plug in your device and see if you have any unknown devices appearing if you do right click on it and click uninstall then unplug the device and wait 10 seconds then plug it back in, this solved it for me. Although i still have to do this every so often. But at least it allows me to sync with both my pc's

cannot sync my qtek9000 anymore

Hello there from Italy.
I posted this because of a problem that is driving me mad since some weeks. first my data.
pc:
win xp sp3
outlook 2003
active sync 4.5
qtek 9000:
win 5
sbsh phoneweaver
sbsh iLauncher
memmaid
sprite backup
The problem is that when I connect my qtek to the pc via the usb cable the pc tells me that it had a problem installing the new hardware. After that no active sync is coming out and thus no syncronization.
It is definitely a pc bug since I can syncronize my qtek in other pc.
Following some italian forum I uninstalled all usb controllers and things but had no success.
I'm desperate. Can you please help me?
My bests
Michael

Guys...................no one really can help me out?
C'mon, this is a giant leap for me but a small step for you...............
Michael

Did you uninstall/re-install ActiveSync? If not, try that.
If you have and that didn't fix it, try going to Start > Settings > Connections > USB to PC and untick "Enable advanced network functionality" then try again.

Thanks Nanoruler for your quick response.
Yes, I did try to reinstall AS 4.5 plus I have no icon for USB to PC connection in my qtek 9000.................what's going on here?
Thanks............
Michael

Try running the attached CAB

Nanoruler,
thanks a 1000 for your help. Not being a nasa computer expert, can you tell me what is the cab attached and how to use it?
Thanks in advance
Michael

Nanoruler, are you there, my friend?
I'm relying on your help for this..............
hope to read from you soon.............

Depend if you´re using Vista or XP
Vista: Windows Mobile device Center
XP: Active Sync 4.5
Just google it, download and install
Good luck,

ok. I gave it a try, but nothing new happened. I want to think it is not the usb switch fault but my lack of knowledge. Since I don't know how to install it, I clicked on the xml file. An IE page opened wanrning me of the threat running activex commands. I accepted it and clocked on run. After that I tried to hook my qtek but, as mentioned, nothing happened.
Did I install it the proper way?
please let me know about it.
all the bests

Michael, just copy usbswitch.cab to an SD card, and then find it on your Uni using File Explorer and click on it. It will then install.

Hi Jon and a milion thanks: finally someone who guided me through. Gosh, after all it didn't take that much, uh? All it took was your words.
really really thank you
Michael

iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiihaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!!!!!
it works: after a zilion months and tests I finally got my universal to hook with my laptop again.
Thanks a lot for that USB switch: it sure helped me out on this while hundreds in various forums across the world couldn't..............
Incredible........

SEUS desn't see x1 in bootloader screen

Hi ppl. I'm new in the world of Win. mobile and Smartphones.I have an Xperia ( simlockfree logofree ) in dutch.
KOVS110
SPL-0.72.0000
MicroP1-787
MicroP2-707
ROM versie: 1.02.937.3
ROM Datum: 08/29/08
Radioversie: 1.06.25.29
Protocolversie: 52.43.25.24U
Uitbeidingversie: 1.0.55513.1119
Modelnr: X1i
R1AA017 R8A 1215-3311 GENERIC_NL
The phone seems to have some problems. ( restarts sometimes , loong loading time , frizing...etc ). I got back to the dealer and ask for warranty. He sed that the problem is for shure software and i can make an update SEUS. I tried for 3 days to do it and i can't. I have Vista Ultimate 64-bit SP1. The new and fresh Win mobile device center 6.1, working USB ports , different USB cables.I have no firewall.My phone connects without any problems and makes syncronization with sync center. The problem is in bootloader mode. I hear a connection sound , but the SEUS and the sync center doesn't see it. In system/device manager i see it as - mobile usb sync device ( or something like that ).The phone shows 3 colors and serial message . When i put the usb cable in , it changes to usb message. Doesn't do anything else. I tryed with/without SD card , restart , reinstall , reset , change ports , cables , drivers, win updates......all the advice in the forums except changing PC ( i have only 1).......Nothing.
I wanted to see if it's broken or not. I don't want to try hardspl flashing or anything else until i'm 100% shure that the phone is good. I don't want to give the f$%^&rs any reason to deny the warranty. So my question is : is there a solution to be able to connect to the SEUS in bootmode screen?
PS -- if it works i'll go for an different ROM-- i'm not dutch , and neither english , so pls excuse all the errors in this post.
Ty for taking the time to read this post.

Perhaps it is a 64-Bit issue. I can tell you from my experiments that under Win Vista 32-Bit it is most likely a problem of the USB driver. At least I don't think it's a software issue (By software I mean an application). If you run Windows XP on VirtualPC with USB "Passthrough", SEUS will not work either. So it must be a low-level problem of Vista. As you may know, Vista has a new driver system. I believe the 64-Bit version differs from the 32-Bit version in function.

Last week I checked SEUS with my Xperia and detected it correctly. But yesterday SEUS didn't recognize my X1. I didn't make any changes on my X1 since last week. I used Hard SPL to remove my custom Vodafone ROM 3 months ago, and I update to the official R2 without problems. I have the same problem that all of people who posted here. We need a solution because it's very strange this. Maybe SE made some change in his SEUS to avoid people who used Hard SPL update by the official way? Thank you very much. Best regards

VISTA is the problem......... With the help of an XP PC i used SEUS with no problems. Anyway....i steel have Vista PC , so if there will be an solution for future updates pls post them here. TY

i don't have Vista, XP but same problem...

Yes. When I connect it, the color bars disappear and start the progress bar that appears when a ROM is being installed. After a pair of seconds, Xperia reboot and says "no image file "., and comes to the boot screen with color bars again to rest in that state forever.

Let me quote myself
I heard of some people that SEUS ran on Vista when they removed the tick for the USB-connection in the mobile device center. Maybe that helps.
Other said, that they had to install the new driver for the USB-sync-connection; just let Windows Update run while your X1 is in the bootloader-mode connected with your PC - maybe try this more then once; my Windows Update needed four runs to find the driver

One of the two points will help you too, you'll see

Hey guys, I can update finally. Try this, like me.
Restore stock Hard SPL. It's posted in this forum.
Run SEUS in the administrator account of Vista.
If you don't do any of the 2 previous things, it won't work!
Best regards.

Hi!
Solution from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=519317&referrerid=1836412
Clear the Checkbox : USB Connection allowed, in the Vista Mobile Devicecenter (before connecting the USB cable to X1). After that the SEUS can identify the X1 and continue with the guide.

Marcus

Thanks to Marcus that was the perfect solution i spent 6 hours trying to figure this out you are the first one to offer a non flash option.

6. What happens if you run update application and click Next?
