Hi,
I'm trying to install hard-spl to flash my TC with wm6.5 rom that I have made with kitchen available here.
Problem: ActiveSync connection is ok, I can sync, explore etc. But when I run ROMupdateutility.exe it gives connection error 202.
I don't see any security messages about running enterbootloader.exe or anything else either which is weird, just this 202.
I have tried to change phone's "enable advance network functionality" setting, no luck.
I have 2 pc's with WinXP, other one has no internet connection, firewall or anti-virus software, getting exactly the same result with both pc's.
I have tried different usb cable, port, many many soft resets...
There's Symantec SmartPhone Security on the phone, I have disabled the auto-protect, but no luck.
Any ideas???
ERROR [202, 204] : CONNECTION
This error message will appear when the device is not connected to ActiveSync correctly. Make sure you properly connect the device to the PC through ActiveSync before running RUU.
Have you tried a hard reset make a backup first as it removes all apps installed and data 'phone numbers text's', I think with Symantec SmartPhone Security removed as long as activesync works it should be ok.
Hi, hard reset seems to be the last way to try. I have read this forum 2 nights now and not found any other ideas :-(
Running wm6.5
Hard reset might be THE solution for many people I think.

Hey all,
I'm running Windows 2003 Server on my development system, and would like to connect to my MDA2.
Activesync does say it has connected sucessfully, but never shows the "New partnership" wizard. Any for of syncing or file browsing results in nothing but error messages like "Unable to retrieve device information". I've searched a lot of fora already and tried re-installing outlook, activesync and the driver that came with my mda 2. I also tried disabling my firewall, starting all available serviecs etc. Nothing seems to work.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
From other various posts uninstalling and reinstalling ActiveSync seems to be the solution to this problem and this worked for me. Ensure you have the latest version of ActiveSync - http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/default.mspx. Delete any current partnerships and then attach your device.
That didn't do the trick Activesync does start up, and a connection can be made, but the whole idea of partnerships seems to be diabled. There is no partnership wizard at startup, and no way to delete or edit the current partnership. I'll tyry again tonight, until then I'll just run all my updates from work

Uninstall, disable driver signing and reinstall.
Failing that, make sure you have all available updates from Windows Update and the latest build version of Activesync. 3.71 build 4034 is what I use. I've used this no problem on W2K3.
Cheerio

The only way I can get it to work is to kill explorer.exe and disable the anti-virus (Symantec corp 9.0), uninstall ASync, reinstall ASync, connect device.
This setup works all the time, but after a reboot I have to start all over. I've tried disabling driver signing, system file protection in any possible combination to no avail, maybe I should just re-install my system (or it may be that I have Visual Studio .Net 2005 installed, but that seems a bit far fetched.
I have been trying to sincronize my S200 Qtek but it is impossible. I have made several hard and soft resets and tried with three different computers. I have installed 4.1, 4.2 and 4.5 beta versions of ActiveSync, but it is always the same: ActiveSync seems to turn on but no sincronization initialize when I connect my S200 to the USB port.
I have also made a format and reinstall windows XP but I can't syncronize information... please help me!
I have also tried to install "USB killer" without success...
Did you disable Win XP firewall? You have to disable it or any other firewall that may be installed.
If that solves your problem search MS site for how to authorise ActiveSync for your firewall.
Yes, in fact when I reinstalled windows I didn't install Norton because of the firewall. I have also unactivated windows firewall... but no sincronization occurrs
Maybe you could try another USB Cable? Or try to sync using Bluetooth?
Can't sync my S200 either...
Don't think it's cable because it is brand new :'(
Have you tried to upgrade to the latest activesync right after the installation of windows? (found here)
And perhaps some overactive antivirus programs can bug up syncing too sometimes. Did the installation of new hardware go well after you plug in your device?
When you plug in, did nothing happen or was there a small screen saying it was getting information from the phone? If yes, were you able to setup a connection (guest etc) and after that it didn't want to sync?
Got this issue resolved the fault was some tweaking I did... See, I use fixed IP with my router so I disabled the DHCP client service on services.msc... So activesync could't get the right adress from the prophet... Still don't know how I manage to make that assumption about this problem, but gladly I did
Hope this help other people with similar problem...
Same issue

Hi!
I have tried now on two computers (one old windows 2000 platforn with activesync 4.2 and the other with Windows Vista Ultimate x64 with WMDC) and on the old platform it starts to connect but after a while an error. On the new I get no connection to WMDC. I always use my USB cable. The cable works, both loads and turn my loadinglight from yellow to green. My smartphone is a QTEK 9100 Windows mobile 5.
The error occured after I did scan on the phone for duplicated files and removed them. Afterwards it just wont sync. I have tried some tools, turning of firewall, reinstaling and all of the stuff recommended on the WMDC but now I am lost
What should I do?

You may have removed a critical file that you needed for syncing when you removed the duplicate files. Does whatever program you used for that have a restore option? If not, you may need to backup the files you want to save and do a hard reset.
I have tried a hard reset now and it still dosent work. Now I am deeply lost
Try going to start-->settings-->connections tab-->usb to pc and either check or uncheck the enable advanced network functionality check box and see if that fixes it.
I have the same problem...
I have the same problem, i can't sync with my pc. it only shows a balloon that said "Unrecognized Device". I can not find the usb to pc box to be checked... pls help me. thank you
I have tried to find the pc to usb tab but I just can´t find it. I am running a swedish version of wm 5, but it still should be under connections. But it isn´t.
first off I'm using windows xp sp2 and ActiveSync 4.5 for my tmus hd2. when my computer starts up i get the error wcescommmgr.exe failed to initialize properly.
i have tried unnstalling repeatedly but still same error and now i can't sync my phone. anyone have a clue here what could be wrong
bumping to get this some more views
any suggestions guys?
just untick the "enable faster connection" button on USB-PC dialog box, and try again.
ihave its not a problem with my phone settings its my computer. on startup i get an error tat says wcescomm.exe failed to initialize properly. it happens even if my phone isn't connected
or can someone tell me another program to use for syncing on win xp
so i suppose noone has had this issue?
Have you tried this:
http://social.answers.microsoft.com...c/thread/06013872-5bec-4d25-8d4b-7a9e23ee8c6a
yeah my computer isn't connected to the internet so i have firewalls turned off. ichecked services in admin tools and found nothing relating to ActiveSync. i really need to sync my phone. mmmy phone gets recognized as disk drive but ActiveSync is faster
ok so i tried tracking down registry entries but it was too confusing. i ado tried reinstalling ActiveSync to my other hard drive and it still does it. wcescomm.exe had failed to initialize properly (0x0000142)
thnx rpx1 it worked for the future its all about missing a profile to active sync.created new system profile aka user account and im good to go
Installed BsBTweaks on my HTC HD2, but now ActiveSync won't connect to my phone. PC O/S is Win XP SP2. I'm running WinMo 6.5 and have the latest ROM for the device from my provider, version 3.14.531.1. I get the message: "Critical communication services have failed to start. Try resetting the mobile device, and then connect again." I haven't yet made any changes to the device using BsBTweaks, I only installed it. Have tried rebooting the phone to no avail. I have to use Disk Drive mode to get at the pictures on my SD card. Is there a way to get ActiveSync working again? I'd probably donate to the developers if this problem could get corrected and I can reasonably figure to keep and use BsBTweaks. Thanks.

Have you tried to restart your PC and try different port?
Sometime this trick works

Restarted the PC - worked like a charm. Thanks a million. I can breathe again.
...And I just made a modest donation. Thanks very much.
Troubleshooting Sync Connection with Your Computer
You can often solve any temporary sync connection problems by disconnecting your phone from the sync cable, waiting a few seconds, and then reconnecting it. However, sometimes you may experience persistent problems related to your network connection (for example, your Internet connection). You may be unable to sync your phone while there is an active network connection on your computer, or the network connection may be cut when you connect your phone to your computer. If this happens, you can try switching to a serial USB connection for your phone:
1. On the Home screen, slide to the Settings tab.
2. Tap Menu > All Settings > Connections > USB to PC.
3. Clear the Enable faster data synchronization check box.
4. Tap Done.
