Hello all, I took the bull by the horns this morning and upgraded my PPCPE to 4.00.16 ENT T-Mobile US from JSummers ROM Kitchen.. I used the EXE installer and everything works fine.. I did have to upgrade form Activesync 3.6 to 3.7 once the upgrade was done..
Tonight I decided on trying some new options from the kitchen and downloaded a new EXE.. (still 4.00.16) just with EzWap2 this time..
But the EXE installer won't see the PPC anymore, even though active sync sees it and it syncs just fine. A DOS window comes up and says "ERROR: GetConnectionType - An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host. error getting connectiontype." The installer window still shows up though.. When I click next to install I get a windows popup box that says "ERROR 011: EXECUTE REMOTE COMMUNICATION PROGRAM ERROR - Cannot execute the remote communication program. Please make sure that the USB/Serial cable is properly connected." When I try again I get another dos window that says "ERROR: GetDeviceData - An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host. Error getting devicedata".
Am I doing something wrong here?? I've tried the SD method but apparently my SD card writer/reader isn't compatible with XDArit and it writes sucessfully but won't read the card back and the PPC doesn't recognize it as valid..
Help!
:shock: Have you read small notes beside the rom version which tell you to be very carefull before using rom 4.00.16. The notes telling you that after you flash with that rom version will unavailable to reflashing or downgrading with other rom version. Sorry, only this far I could help you cause I'm still a newbie to.
You can go back to a different ROM or the same with more stuff like your situation. BUT you HAVE to do it the SD card way. Search the forum and you will find more info about this. (SD card method)
Guys! I did something wrong. I upgraded my 3.16 ROM to the T-Mobile 4.00.21. It works fine, but I don't like 2003 so much. I want downgrade. I tried to use Programme A, but i always have this error message in a Dos windows:
ERROR: GetConnectionType
After that the program is always cancel. What to do?
An other error message
I found an other error message. "Cannot execute the remote communication program. Please make sure that the USB cable is propertly connected"
Yes. It's connected activesync is working propertly. Communication is ok. Only the upgrading software can find error.
you must use ActiveSync 3.7.1,
you need un-install it.
Install ActiveSync 3.7 or lower version
I don't think ActiveSync will work ... TMO ROMs do not accept the USB flashing ... you may have to use the SD card method.
Problem Solved
Thank you guys! I did the SD Card Method and It works fine. That was long time to solve to problem and learn how to use the SD card method, but now everything is fine. Thank you again!
Hi,
I have installed an 4.01.15 ENG rom from http://lumpistefan.dyndns.org/.
And now I can't install any other ROM with the following error:
ERROR: GetDeviceData - An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote
host.
error getting devicedata
I know its a known problem however from what ive seen it only happens when trying to downgrade. Well I'm trying to install a newer version and this still happens.
What can be done?
Thanks alot,
hackid.

Yes your right it's a well known problem bcz you used the T-mobile rom 4.01.16, You just need to flash back your unit using the Sd method.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=3274
Even if i try to upgrade??
The problem is taht i dont have an SD nor an SD reader/writer.
What can I do?
What actually fails?
Maybe its just an API that can be patched?
10'x
pls is there anyone that can assist me with rom for rom verion of 4.01.16.all attempt to restore my ppc2002 from gsm error failed using xda tool of version 1.1,even version 1.2 was giving me some error statement,pls who can kindly hlp?
So, what error do you get?
What for SD-Card Writer are you using? Inerenal or external? Many internal causes problem, that they do not write correct to the sd-card.
Just give more information what problems occurs downgrading your ROM....
Stefan
the errors i saw, can anyone hlp?
pls wat happened is that i didnt use an sd card cos i dont have one.i used my active sync to transfer the files into the device .when i did that using xda tool ver 1.1,it didnt even run cos i didnt see d osimage tool to run or install,i only saw adapt rom,programme.exe and others and wen i tried running them it displays that no application to run them.i tried using version 1.2 still using active sync,it came up with a cmd.exe applkication and an information that there is an error in connection type,that a connection forcibly ... from the remote host.i was even thinking perhaps its the version of the rom,cos the version of my rom is 4.01.16,pw01b,and i tried running the cooked rom but still an error occured,i dont know wat to do again.can anyone hlp?
Only thing, that could help yoou is buying or borrowing a SD Card > 32 MB.
The ROM you have installed prohibits flashing via ActiveSync / Exe-File, and as much as i know, there is no other solution besides flashing via SD-Card....

Hi
Simple question. Before HD2 I had Samsung Spica mad and I'm using there apps like:
EasySMS over WiFi - 100% working on Spica http://www.appbrain.com/app/easysms-desktop-sms-free/org.fireblade.easysms
WebSharing over WiFi - 100% working on Spica http://www.appbrain.com/app/websharinglite-file-media-sync/nextapp.websharing
and Samba Filesharing over WiFi - 100% working on Spica. http://www.appbrain.com/app/samba-filesharing/com.funkyfresh.samba
Gremote doesn't work too. It is strange becouse this app is different that listed above.
Since I have HD2 it doesn't work (and all alternative apps too). Samba see phone in workgroup but can't connect to it. EasySMS & WebSharing get connection timeout when i want to connect.
BTW: When i enter IP adress in HD2 browser i can log in to EasySMS or WebSharing. So what is the problem?
Maybe somebody can fix it? I try many roms (SD and NAND) = problem is on everyone :/
Sorry for bad english :<
we sharing lite works fine for me, enter your ip adress for the hd2 into your computer browser then enter the password
i have also iused other sharing programs without any problems
What ROM that you use?
I know how to use this program, and they don't work. It isn't the router issue cuz i can use that programs on my father LG Swift.
Here: WebSharing - connection timeout - http://screenshooter.net/2156127/ebuwvsv
I have HD2 with MDJ's CyanogenMod 7 v. 2.6 - Gingerbread 2.3.2 ROM, and I have similars problems. All programs like MyPhoneExplorer (can't find phone) Samba Filesharing (identical problem like Lanc1337) doesn't work.
I can't ping phone from computer connected to router. I check all on another router, problem is the same.
Before I have ZTE Blade and all work perfect!
I found ROM where sharing is working!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=912427 - all type of sharing is working here!
But i don't like sense -.- So, why this isn't working on all roms? Kernel or rom issues? I would like this to work on CM build...
Try this:
launch terminal and type:
su [ENTER]
iptables -P INPUT ACCEPT [ENTER]
iptables -F [ENTER]
of course [ENTER] mean press ENTER key
Doesn't work. After i enter second and third command i have error:
getsockopt for multiport failed strangely: No such file or directory
Errors is ok - don't worry. In my Ginger this is working for Samba (I'm using MDJ Cyan V2.7 NAND)...
Maybe try this at first (in terminal):
iptables -P INPUT ACCEPT [ENTER]
and after all this try ping your HD2 from computer (try ping -t ip_address to continous ping - it's good idea to ping -t your_hd2_ip from computer to see if and commands helped) and ping your computer from HD2.
Before I put all this my phone isn't visible in LAN (even with ping command). After putting this everything is ok (and ping is working ).
Put here yours output (after all commands) of "iptables --list [ENTER]" please. Maybe I'll figure someting out...
I check all, and:
I must enter commands:
1. su
2. iptables -P INPUT ACCEPT [ENTER]
and start pinging from phone to computer.
After this software like MyPhoneExplorer can connect to phone. If I enter only commands, and don't use ping command, computer can't connect to my phone.
It's very strange....
After enter iptables --list
chain INUPUT (policy ACCEPT)
chain FORWARD (policy ACCEPT)
chain UTPUT (policy ACCEPT)
I check all again from start to end.
I must enter to terminal su,
and start ping, after this i can exit ping, and I can connect to phone, and phone reply to pings. I don't must enter "iptables -P INPUT ACCEPT"
Any ideas for permamently solution ?
UP
Permament solution will be great!
Sorry for spam :/ Is nobody know how to solve this issue?
Bump!
Hi, also have this issue. Doing the iptables command doesnt do anything for me, it just gives me a bunch of errors. In my case it is enough to just ping my computer from HD2 using terminal emulator or other app (I use Net ping) and I can connect to phone via wifi immediately. After phone restarts I have to do that again.
i have just same issue,seems all CM based rom has this problem,anyone has any ideas?

Not only CM ROMs. I am using UltimateDroid based ROM and also have this issue. My guess was that it could be related to Gingerbread, but I could be wrong.
Has anyone solved this?
I just found out that by using tytung r6 kernel this issue is gone. When I turn the wifi on, connect to the router I can ping the phone immediately. Also Wifi tethering in settings menu works. I am currently having some issues with restoring apps but wifi works great. I have downloaded r6 CWM install from here.
