Being a Mac user and not using Windows mobile device for over 6 years, I seem to have totally forgotten some basics.
I bought a game from handango called Resco Guardians
http://www.handango.com/catalog/Pro...349§ionId=7612&merch=L1_Bestsellers_Games
(it stated the game should work on HD2) but totally forgotten how to install 3rd party apps..in the old days I remember using Activesync. But now, I loaded the exe file to the device memory card and tried to run/install it from there, but got message this is not a PPC compatible software.
Have I installed it wrong or is it simple not compatible?
Also, is there specific drivers I need to install for Windows 7 to recognise my device, as the Windows 7 mobile app does not seem to recognise my HD2.
Thanks for advice and please excuse the fact that my mind has gone blank regarding Windows.
The .exe is for your PC. It will automatically add your new game to ActiveSync, and send it over when you next dock.
For Windows 7 you need to download the Windows Mobile Device Centre. No drivers are required.
Connect HD2 via Active Sync or Windows Media Center for Vista and Win7 and run .exe file from PC... It´l install your game to your PDA...
You dont need any drivers...
Do I select Activesync or Hard disk mode (usb plug option)? it must be todo with me trying to connect using VMWare Fusion, as the device does not seem to be recognised.
Active Sync mode, btw Windows 7 should already have Windows Mobile Device Centre installed form what I know, is there no cd/software with the hd2?
Yes device centre present, but no CD with HD2, in Activesync mode, device is not recognised...maybe to do with me running Windows in Virtual mode..but never happened before with Blackberry etc.
Just tried connecting my HD2 with a Vista laptop, still cannot connect in Activesync mode. Could a HD2 owner please tell me how they are connecting to their PC. Maybe an option I have not selected?
Thanks
You need to install Windows Mobile Device Centre for Vista, not Activesync

Thanks for link, its already installed (and reinstalled it) but there seems to be a problem with HD2 being recognised...did your phone come with a CD?
OK fixed it - for anybody else who may encounter same problem...make sure "Enable Faster Data Sync" is NOT checked in USB to PC setting.
That's odd, mines checked and it works fine. I am using Windows 7 and not Vista so may thats why it works for me?
At least its working now!
Yes since I unchecked the option, now works on Windows 7 and Vista in virtual mode on my Mac.

Hi there,
i need some help with the topic mentioned above. I read a lot through this forum and the Internet but couldnt get any clue how to achieve it. I actually want to use MSN and ICQ via ActiveSync/BT
I have a German O² XDA mini with R1.12.00, G1337.42, D1.12.01GER (is there a way to update the ROM? This german document on the xda developer ftp isnt available). I am running XP Home with SP2 and use a MSI BT Stick.
It seems that the key uses tis BlueSolei Software from ITV from this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=18537
but i cant manage to get ActiveSnyc running... my XDA and Windows are pairing but i cant sync...
I am also too noobish to configure my COM Ports in the Pocket PC. They are always blank, so i cant choose any ports?!
When i sync with the ppc sync tool it says:
Connection cant be established. Check dfü & proxy settings and. Then Try again...
Thanks in Advance...
smurf
same Problem.
Can anyone help please ?
ok, i solved my problem. Dont know exactly how but i can post what i did...
First i deleted all COM ports in the Device Manager of windows (except COM1&2). I deinstalled my BT Stick and restarted Windows.
i then installed the bt stick again and then installed and deinstalled this bluesolei software for ppc about 10 times :evil:
after that everthing worked fine. AS over BT, MSN, ICQ, PAN and so on...
....
I tried to Install the PPC software on the magician but it installs only on the pc and not on the PPC,
where did you download the software for PPC ?
Theres an excellent guide for this over at Modaco in the smartphone forums somwehere.
The method is exactly the same, i did it on my MDA and it worked flawlessly! Just follow the procedure to the letter... even including restarts!
The thing is when I try to install the software on my ppc it's not really installed.
when the installation process is over it pops up the AS add/remove winow saying that the app would be downloaded next time I connect it (when it's connected already), so I disconnect and reconnect it

reply yes and then it just closes without installing anything on the PPC..
Finally got this this going !
Guys, you don't actually need the bluesoil stack to have messaging and internet over bluetooth. I have a guide here that will tell you everything you need to know about setting up active sync over bluetooth (which let's you access the net) including how to remove hidden com ports on your PC if your port number for active sync is above 9.

Btw, the second screenshot is almost what it is, but couldn't find a better screenshot.
Allready tried it out, you can "control" your system using these plugins... Tweakers.net article (dutch) English for more information.
Download other plugins over here or using this URL for the Windows Sideshow, at the moment you can control your Powerpoint presentation (next/previous slide + preview) and control your Windows Media player (next/prev play/pause and see what you're playing + album art).
Also you can check your mail (which didn't work) and see your appointments (also didn't work). Looks promising.
Lolz i couldn't find a nice screenshot from the app for the Pocket PC so thats why i asked for the screenshot. It's looking verry nice i will try to use it. Thanks
Wicked, I've been waiting for this
some examples..
Sorry, my Vista is Turkish

Installation Guide..
You have to use Windows Vista..!
1- Extract files (in X86-PC Drivers.cab) to a folder.. You will need to them for "The bluetooth peripheral device" drivers on PC..
2- Copy WindowsSideShowForWindowsMobile.cab to your PDA..
3- Pair your PC and PDA via Bluetooth
4- Open "Control Panel\Windows SideShow" and check (click) applications which ones do you want to use on PDA
does this work with the media centre app??

SideShow on Touch Diamond
I hope you guys can help me here.
I tried installing sideshow on my touch diamond. The .net compact framework is already running, I installed the file above, and I paired the xda with my pc.
Although the xda is listed in my bluetooth devices it won't apear in the sideshow settings.
Does anyone have a clue or experienced similar problems?
thx dr_krohn
hi
try deleting the paring and recreating it as you have to have the sideshow service in the list on your phone under bluetooth or under the same on your computer also there is a newer one out there than the one posted on the thread.

I have the same problem when pairing my phone with Windows 7. According to Microsoft this is a known problem which they are investigating although there still haven't been any updates on this.

As I said in the post above yours, sideshow does NOT work with Windows 7 and there is no way around it.
Thank you! Working perfectly in my Polaris and in my Vista
Hi,
To start off I`m using Garmin`s Kumara Touch - WM6 Premium. Just later I had the same problem I had before, active doesn't work. cables are properly plugged in, soft reset doesn't change a thing, when i go to My Computer -> Manage -> Device Manager -> Other Devices here appears Windows CE USB Devices with an exclamation point on it. As I was saying, I had the issue before and the resolution was a hard reset. My question is, has anyone encountered the same problem i had? because I don`t like the hard reset part. I have to reinstall everything I have in my PPC, I also tried a full back up via SPB Backup then did a hard reset then did a full restore, still the Unrecognized / Un-installed Windows CE USB Devices appears on Device Manager.
Can anyone help me with this. It would really be appreciated..
WMstorage works well btw, i can charge etc via WMstorage.
Here's the screenshot I get in Device Manager

you should try to update drivers...
HI,
I'm facing an issue while trying to update my LG G2 to 4.4.2. LG PC Suite cannot see the device when connect with PC Suite mode. There is an icon in the phone notification bar saying Phone and LG PC Suite are connected via USB cable. The PC Suite itself keep trying to connect and after few seconds, it will show this pop up.

I'm not quite sure why the PC Suite keep asking me to install MTP driver because I can see my phone in the window explorer and device manager, I can transfer files between PC and Phone when connect with MTP mode, I can tethering the internet connection ... basically, I can do everything I'm suppose to except connect with PC Suite. Any idea or suggestion are welcome
Some Info
- My LG G2 is runing 4.2.2 (D80210e-ESA-XX)
- I'm using Macbook Pro Retina Late 2013
- Bootcamp with Window 7 Ultimate 64 Bit
- This is my first PC Suite connection with this Macbook
- But, I've been using it to transfer files (with MTP) and share internet for few months so far (still able to do so at the moment)
- I can connect to PC Suite MAC but it always failed to connect to update server so I have to try with window.
- I think cable and USB port is fine since I can do file transfer and connect with MAC PC Suite.
Same problem...
The same issue, but I had been using PC Sync for a month on Win 7 flawlessly before I have done (F)OTA upgrade to KitKat on LG G2. Since then I could't estabilish PC Sync connection with my phone. On the other hand I'm still using MTP for normal acces to device storage. Trying reinstall drivers and programs for 2nd time to get it solved with no effect. Have no clue what's wrong. Have anyone reported bug to LG with any response?
+1
the same problem. my phone will show only bettery charged and nathing elsa
any luck ?
Any luck for some of you. I am having exactly the same problem.....
thx for your help !
I am having same problem... cant connect with PC suite or OSP or LG Mobile support tool
Why the hell do we even have to his a 250meg "PC suite"? Why cant we just mount the damn thing as a USB device like every other phone/rom?
If you're still on KitKat just use On Screen Phone, that usually works no problem. I could never get my phone to connect to PC Suite, not with KitKat or now with Lollipop.
Sent from my LG-D801
I recently bought a Nexus 7 (2012 - WiFi Version) on eB*y, the Device is Rooted, ROM is CyanogenMod-NIGHTLY-Grouper.
When i tryed to connect the Nexus 7 with my Laptop and PC it started to charge (but verry, verry slow) and i Windows says that the USB device cannot be identified (also i cannot install drivers for it becaus it cannot be identified) Fail-Code is: 43. I tryed it on Win7 Desktop PC and on a Win10 Laptop but no chance.
Also i tryed to install a Factory ROM via Recovery Mode (from SD Card) it says: Installation aborted.
I really dont know what to do now? I think it is the USB Flex Cable, what do you guys think?
Sorry for my bad English.
Hope someone can help me here.
On your Nexus 7, search for a setting called USB connections and ensure MTP is checked.
On your windows PC, Control Panel > Device Manager, go to your broken Nexus device, right click and update the driver for it... Select you want to install the driver yourself. Then it will ask you to browse to the driver, but underneath that you will have another selection along the lines, "select from common driver list". From there, look under portable devices and select either MTP Storage or MTP USB Storage. I had the same problem and only MTP USB Storage works for me.
For ADB and Fastboot stuff... Search these forums.
Hope that helps.

Don't forget to try other USB cables.
Just use the Nexus Root Toolkit and follow the easy wizard to completely setup the N7 on your PC:
