Hi, I seem to be having some trouble trying to update to the latest 6.5 ROM. It says I have a "Error 260: USB Connection".
I also get the same error trying to flash to HardSPL, it says I should make sure it is synced, when it is. I also tried installing the "enablerapinew.cab", and another computer/another cable cord. All the same problems.
I think it may be because in my USB to PC menu, the option to "Enable Advanced Network Functionality" is ticked and grayed out. So I can't untick it.
I tried changing the driver in the registry to the USB Serial driver, but that didn't even sync.
If anyone can help, it would be greatly appreciated.

Since this is your first post;
Check here.
Tonnes of info on this error.
The alternative is to flash from SD card. Instructions in flashing guide on Wiki.
I'm having the same issue... mine started after i installed a cab file that allows all of myTouchflo screens to have the same wallpaper.... but now my usb connection on th phone does not work. Even in bootloader when i plug in the USB it never recognizes it and i've tried multiple cables and multiple workstations any help here would be great!

Hard reset if nothing else works.
Then you will know whether it is a hardware failure or software related.
I've seen anything from bent pins, lose USB on circuit board, bad cables, Vista vs XP....etc and the list goes on of possible causes for this issue.
Well it still charges and the phone still reads the storage card because i was able to flash it from the card but the computer will not recognize it as a USB device therefore activesync will not work and i cannot access the storage card when its in the phone
Reinstall ActiveSync...maybe...

Hi!
I have exactly the same problem.
Connecting the TD2 with my PC does not do anything.
Its the same issue with my 2nd PC and othe cables.
Charging works but no USB connection.
I think the USB connector on the Phone is broken.
I allready contacted HTC support but no response yet.
I will post again when ive got some news.

SD-Rom flashing
Hi ya all,
Try to flash it from your SD card, have a look here: http://www.tomlenferink.nl/component/content/article/1-latest-news/77-windows-mobile-65.html
Don't forget for Windows XP you need Active Sync and for Windows Vista and 7 you need Windows Mobile Device Center.

Hi,
Previously I was running Black 3.0 and was synching with Vista and had no problems.
I recently updated the ROM to Black Satin and now I cannot sync.
When I connect the device to my computer it initially recognises it and gives an option to create a partnership but then it disappears and it says that no device is connected.
Does anyone have an idea of what could be wrong or of ways of fixing it?
Thanks.
Also..
I have followed the guide here http://www.mrvanx.org/hermes_guide/vista/index.html for vista and I get an error installing the drivers (error attached).
I have also turned off advanced usb networking..

First, be sure you're running the latest WMDC 6.1. Then reboot both the computer and the device. If that doesn't fix it, click on Start -> Settings -> Connections -> USB to PC and check or uncheck "Enable advanced network functionality".
Then... report back.
yup I have done all that
Rebooted about 20 times (pc+device) even tried reflashing different roms but still no go!
Have unchecked advanced networking..
Make sure you have the right driver from VistaRUU.zip floating around. I did these exact steps last night and am also running Black Satin. I don't have a problem. Be sure to re-check the box that says allow USB connections.
Good luck. Try going over all the steps in case you might have missed something.
Spathi, in your case, you may just need to re-download the Hermes USB drivers.
P.S. I did also update my SPL to HardSPL2.0
I have tried installing the drivers numerous times.
I have tried the drivers from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=33892&d=1170385335 and here
http://mahmood1.com/Documents/64bit.rar
I am on 64bit Vista and have downloaded the 64bit drivers and turned off driver signing..
My phone has SPL 2.10lipro which I believe is the latest?

i had the same problem a little while ago. search my user name for posts and you'll find the thread. but the solution was... uninstall wmdc reboot, and download and reinstall. works like a charm.
I HAD the same problem.
OK.. I had the same problems, troubleshooting with MS for $35.00 didn't solve it. The one thing that did solve it is kind of ridiculous and easy.. So here's the solution..
It turns out Vista has issues with detecting USB drivers on certain types of chipsets. It looks like the USB ports are correctly installed, but it just doesn't like the devices (like Smartphones) connected to it.
I solved the problem by buying a USB card with a VIA chipset. It's amazing how well it works now. Of course, I discover this AFTER a reinstall of Vista and everything else.. Duh! Ugh!
Hope this helps other people feel less pain.
-Percy
I have tried the uninstall/reinstall thing before (just tried it again) no luck there.
I just tried another usb card and that didnt work either.
Only thing I haven't tried is reinstalling windows...
mine is more weird
upgraded from wmdc 6.0 to 6.1.6965 now when it bootloader, wmdc doesn't even connect at all. even return to wmdc 6.0 doesn't solve the problem
There are a couple of things with Vista..
I figured out these few little nuggets during my travels..
1. Make sure you have all the newest updates. (MS apparently knows of this problem as they have released a patch to resolve some USB issues)
2. The external USB Card you try has to have the VIA USB Drivers.
3. Update your bios to something newer (also a big problem)
4. Turn on Legacy Support for USB (important too)
5. Disable your ACPI if you're having troubles.
6. Have you tried connecting the device directly to the MOBO USB Ports?
I can't stress this enough.. the VIA USB Chipset seems to work so if you try an external card, make sure it has a VIA chipset on it. They're completely different than the standard Vista USB Drivers.
For those that are having problems - check on your desktop system in the device manager to see if you have the "Microsoft Remote Mobile Adapter" installed as a network card. If you do, uninstall it. This driver gets in the way of the WMDC 6.1 connection with USB.
It apparently gets loaded if you attach your device while having "advanced networking" enabled in the PC->USB setup on the device. Once you've done that, you're stuck. Turning off the "advanced networking" on the device won't help, because that remote driver is already loaded. You need to disconnect your device, unstall that driver, be sure "advanced networking" is turned off, and then connect your device again. I've had this happen a couple of times to me after re-flashing the ROMs.

I've been searching a lot about this and just can't figure it out... I can sync my tytn (8525 as I call it) with windows media player, but can't do it with "windows mobile device center". Actually, everytime I click on wmdc, it opens up the "Change Connections SEttings" where it says "Device Connected" up top but then I click on ok and apparently nothing happens...
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?

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?)

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

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.

I just purchased a Telstra Touch HD T8285 on eBay. Unfortunately, the seller did not disclose that he had flashed a new ROM (Dutty ROM) to it and that USB syncing and wifi do not work. I'd like to try and get this fixed on my own...otherwise I will have to try and get the seller to take the phone back and refund my money. I really like the phone so I just want it to work properly.
After much searching on here I discovered that I could flash directly from the flash card, thus bypassing the problem of USB syncing not working. I have tried a few ROMs (EnergyRom, Miri, Telstra updated direct from HTC) and neither wifi nor USB syncing works with any of them.
I have tried all the hints/suggestions about changing USB settings in activesync on both the phone and computer and nothing works. I cannot even get my computer to recognize the phone as a USB storage device (the phone just starts charging but activesync acts as though it's not even connected). When I go into bootloader mode on the phone it displays "serial" but never changes to USB.
Bootloader screen displays the following:
BLAC120 32M
SPL-1.56.Olinex
MicroP-Blackstone (LED) v6
From what I've read on here, I think I need to get a new version of SPL on my phone but I don't know how to do so without being able to use USB syncing. Is there any way to reflash SPL on my phone using the card flash method?
Someone please help!

It sounds more like you need to update your usb drivers by following this guide. Also ensure that you have enabled 'allow usb connections' in activesync connection settings.
Unfortunately you cannot change SPL without using your usb, so let me know if this works
unfortunately that guide to updating USB drivers does not work. When my phone is in bootloader mode the bottom only says "Serial". It never changes to "USB" so the computer does not even recognize that a device is connected.

Did you check that 'allow usb connections' was turn on in activesync connections settings?
Also when you update usb drivers you need to turn your pc off then on again.
Yes I made sure of that setting in ActiveSync.
Since my computer does not recognize my phone being connected, the "Windows CE USB Devices" is not listed in the Windows Device Manger. I have tried connecting my phone to 3 different computers (Windows XP and Windows 7) using different USB cables and still get nothing.
The closest I got was one time yesterday when I plugged my phone into the a/c adapter to charge, the USB window popped up on my phone asking whether I wanted to connect to ActiveSync, Storage Card, or Internet Sharing. That is the only time the window has ever opened and it wasn't even plugged into a computer.

I've tried that as well.
Basically, if it's been written here on the forum I've tried it. Each thread I've found where someone has had the same problem seemed to fade off and no one reported back (even those that fixed it).
Possibly a hardware problem with your usb port then which would require a warranty return unless anyone else has any suggestions
EDIT
Try flashing original stock rom, i.e. the one which was on the device originally when bought. This rom will still flash even if bootloader says 'serial'. This is the only rom that this works for. Unfortunately in your case you do not know what this rom was so a bit of guess work will be required going by date and location. Stock roms are available in wiki here and it'll just be trial and error

So please any one have a clue for this,
Thanks in advance.
Dear gmischenko,
Did you solve your problem??
Hi! I've tried searching the forums but I can't seem to find the solution to my problem. I have installed activesync 4.5 on Win XP Sp 2, but when I connect my HTC Touch, it says USB device not recognized and therefore I can't perform a sync. I did a hard reset on the phone but it still won't work. Do I need to download a separate usb driver for the phone? If yes, where can I get it? Thanks.
Have you tried putting the usb wire on different slots of you pC? If still not working borrow a wire from someone and see if still problem arises~. No extra usb driver is req.

Hi! Thanks for the reply. I did try with other cables and it's still not working. I don't think it's the wire or the usb slots because I can sync my other phones, an HTC Magic and a Nokia phone without any problems.
Is there a USB driver for HTC Touch? Maybe that can solve my problem...
Hi
Try Settings/connections/Usb to pc and uncheck everything beside the first option, this is the 1st action I take after flashing.

same thing. my phone is still not detected.
Another thought: can you sync over bluetooth? if yes the prob is hardware...
And if nothing works try flashing from SDcard.. That's all I can think of...
Also check the firewall settings too

Haven't tried to sync over bluetooth... I can't find my BT dongle. I'll do that once I get hold of my BT. Btw, how do I flash a rom from an SDcard? Thanks again for all the help.

But try the 2 other options first, did you try to stop all firewalls ?
