My Elf pairs with my Win 7 computer (with dongle) but won't connect to WM Device Center. The Elf syncs via cable just fine. I've toyed and played and pushed all the buttons I know to, but no luck.
When I look at the com ports the Elf isn't listed, but the Elf and the Computer think they are paired.
Any thoughts?

Hi
getting to the point of pulling my hair out. I have an Orange M600 running WM5. The only change I have made is to make the GPS icon visible.
I have a new laptop running Vista Home Premium.
I have downloaded the latest version of Windows Mobile Device Centre (WMDC).
When I connect my M600 to my laptop (via USB), the phone screen turns on and the phone starts charging.
But the laptop refuses to recognise that there are any devices attached. No drivers are installed and WMDC does not list any connected devices.
The cable and phone work perfectly with my XP PC but not with the Vista laptop.
This is a little frustrating. Anyone else come across this problem and solved it?
Solved
Finally resolved this.
The USB cable that worked on my XP desktop must have had a fault on it, because a different USB cable on the laptop got it all working fine.
Vista Home Premium/ Windows Mobile Device Centre / WM5 all seem to work together.
Hi there,
I always synced my phone bluetooth with my laptop (Windows 7 x64)
My laptop is bluetooth visible and devices are allowed to connect.
my phone sees my laptop, and me laptop sees my phone
when i bluetooth connect them it seems to go ok, but in the Windows device manager from my laptop it says cannot find drivers.
Strange because i downloaded the latest windows mobile center
I have an unknown bluetooth periphal device in the device manager
USB connection does work properly and the sync! i also can reach my 8Gb SD in my computer
Cheers!
I removed the initial question about the bluetooth connection with my carkit.
The initial question is a problem of my car, don't ask why but i tested bluetooth integrated carkit with a other phone and it also does not work properly so something in the wiring of my car is stuck and is not for this forum. First it DID work with the other phone
I cannot find how to change the thread type to "Bluetooth connection with WIndows 7"
nobody has problems with windows 7 drivers?
My laptop at home is Vista, at work it is XP. I can bluetooth files from my XP laptop to my phone but when I try at home I get "FTP service not found on target device".
I want to use BT because my touch HD USB port seems to have stopped working in activesync. It stopped working a week or so ago, I have not installed any new sw on my laptops or phone. The usb cable is detected for charging the phone but not for activesync. If I go to the bootloader(?) screen and plug in the usb it does not change from 'serial'.
ROM 1.14.405.3 (22273) WWE
ROM date 12/09/08
Bluetooth version 2.0/2.0+EDR
Thanks in advance for any help
me too
same problem!!!!
neeeeeed help
Hi, any solutions to that problem? I have similar situation on Sony Vaio with Vista 64bit and Widcomm bluetooth drivers, which were originally preinstalled with system. I'm getting this message every time I try to send a file over BT to my PDA. Tested with HTC Touch Pro and TyTN. Sending files from other machine (Dell Latitude D830 with Vista 32bit) works fine to both PDAs - via OBEX, don't know why Vista 64 tries to send via FTP. how can I choole protocol, which is used to send files via BT?
Hi,
do you know why my HD2 can sync only when plugged with usb cable and not with bluetooth? It has been correctly paired with my Win7 ultimate, but there is an ! on it in the device manger saying that no blueottoth device drivers has been loaded!
thank a lot in advance

I also get the device not recognised problem, but that's only for one part of the bluetooth stack - can't remember quite what it's for. Regardless, I am able to pair and use active sync with my 2 Windows 7 machines OK. I do have to use the active sync application on the phone to do it though - I can't just pair the devices then run active sync.
In the device center you have the possibility to setup your connection settings. Go to settings - connection settings - leave USB ticked - in the next connection possibility change bluetooth into com5 or com6 and you're ready to go.
I have kinda the same problem with Win XP and my HD2.
- I successfully paired the PC (Dell D820) and the Leo.
- I can successfully exchange files from the PC to the HD2 via bluetooth - but not the other way round (Leo says the PC does not support this ).
- I can successfully sync the Leo to the PC via USB cable.
- When I try to sync via bluetooth, HD2 says that the PC "does not offer any service that can be used with ActiveSync".
- Leo has incoming Bluetooth port set at COM1.
- XP has Bluetooth ports set at COM1 (incoming) and COM3 (outgoing).
Anyone out there has a clue?
Thanks.
I had to set com7 to make it work
I simply leave WMDC set to use "Bluetooth" and it works fine. Check that, then on the phone select the pc, in the BT manager, menu-> update, it should rediscover activesync and list activesync.
Hi,
I am facing the very same problem, please help...
Same problem here with Windows XP. Pairing is ok, discovering Activesync service fail. I never had this with my previous PDA.

WMDC?? On WinXP? Was that a typo or am I missing something?

Probably that the original discussion was about Win7, so I assumed the rest was about it too
I didn't see your particular case was under XP, sorry.
But still, same went for XP, except replacing "WMDC" by "Activesync", and select the outgoing COM port your PC has assigned to the HD2 instead of "Bluetooth". NOT the one your HD2 shows as incoming.
Thanks for the clarification Kilrah (I didn't mean to be rude, I was just in a hurry).
Anyway, I tried as you said (which I had already done, but tried again just in case). No success with Bluetooth sync.
Guess I'll stick to the USB cable and wait till June when my new laptop comes in with Win7 and try again.
Too bad though. Bluetooth sync worked like a charm with my old Nokia. So far, this is the only major disappointment in 2 months with my HD2. Maybe it's because ActiveSync itself is a crappy app?
I have a problem synchronising my HTC Touch P3452 (also called T-Mobile XDA Touch / the model with 256 Rom / 128 Ram).
Simple: It doesn't work.
When I connect the USB cable the batterie starts being charged, but there is neither the typical Windows sound when an USB device is connected, nor does the "Windows Mobile Devices Centre" recognize the device.
When I try to start the active sync connection in the connection manager of the HTC touch it tells me to install the synchronising software first or to configure an exchange server.
Enabling or disabling the hook for "advanced network functions" in the "USB to PC" settings of the HTC touch connection options makes no difference.
Some infos:
ROM-version: 2.81.111.1 GER
Rom-date: 08/29/07
ExtROM-version: 2.81.111.103
I'm using Windows 7 Professional 64bit, DHCP-device-service is active, all updates are installed.
I'd try updating the firmware, but obviously it's not possible without a working active sync connection.
PS: My older HTC Touch P3450 (128/64) has no problem at all. I connect it, it starts synchronising. The HTC Touch 3452 is from a friend of mine and when I asked him he said he was able to synchronize, but under Windows Vista. I don't see why it shouldn't work in Windows 7.
Hi
Ì don't have Win 7 but I think I read somewhere you have to put it in compatibility mode with Win xp
Edit: a little search and I found this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=519602
(you should try it too )
Put what in WinXP compatibility mode? The HTC? How. I never heard this was even an option.
Or do you mean the mobile device center? Why should I do that, it's a programm native to Win7 and it works with the older HTC, so normally it should with the never device, too.
And about your second link...well I already have Win7 (not the RC version) and the latest version of the windows mobile device center is already installed (came with the operating system). There is no windows update for that either, just checked.
I'll try to get my hands on a bluetooth-usb-stick, see if that connects properly. Unfortunately I don't own one...
I don't see any problem with my P3452 sync with Windows 7 Enterprise 64-bit Version. In fact it work instantly when I connect the USB cable to my laptop after I upgraded my laptop to Windows 7.
Did the cable connect properly? or the USB port on the phone itself?
How many pc the phone have sync to? I remember cannot be more than 2, but I might be wrong.

It's only one PC and I think the cable connects properly, because the phone is getting charged when I attach the cable. On the other hand there is no Windows sound indicating a USB-device has been connected and the device doesn't show up in the workstation.
So it might be the USB connector which is broken (the cable worked without any problem on my older HTC so it should be okay). As the device is already a few years old I don't have any guarantee left.
On the weekend I will try to connect it via bluetoot with my brothers notebook (don't have bluetooth on my pc). If that works I will get me a cheap bluetooth usb dongle...
Also check pins aren't bent inside on the phone?

They look okay to me. Nicely in a row, none is bent.
After some little trouble setting it up, synchronizing via bluetooth worked today.
Thanks for all the answers.
