Hmm... Mobile Network sharing function...
I wonder if maybe this will allow me to root my ARIA? the 2.0.38 or however they show the version numbers had not been seeing my phone no matter what I tried.

I was thinking the same thing as i refuse to register my device just to download sync software, it was not like this when i downloaded HTC_Sync_2.0.38 a few weeks ago, and i can download HTC_Sync_2.0.40 without registering a serial easily and use it with no issues, matter a fact i was using HTC_Sync_2.0.40 to sync my outlook and calender even before HTC_Sync_2.0.38 was released so why make us register the device?

used it to get swype on stock non rooted aria, little slow but worked just fine.

Ok, after using this new version i must say that its a step backwards. I like the new GUI and all the eye candy and the ability to install .APK files but it lacks the basic functionality that the HTC_Sync_2.0.38 had.
For instance the old version told you at a glance the number of contacts in outlook and events on the outlook calender, where it is at during the contact syncing and calender syncing. It also gave you more advanced options on syncing.
On this new version Outlook must be set as you default mail client for it to connect with it which is completely bogus. On first connect the device synced on it own using the latest modified data which created duplicated in outlook and my phone, deleted the duplicates from my phone and tried to sync again and it completely wiped the data from outlook, i used the nandroid to restore the contacts to the phone and tried to sync again to get everything back where it was.
A bit angry with the music syncing. The files sync to /Music/ then the full file directory. so if you music is stored in c/:users/username/my documents/music you media wll be synced in the same structure /Music/c/users/username/my documents/music which is more complex than it needs to be. A simple music folder with music/Artist/album is sufficient. Then it took 1 hour to sync 3.8GB of music, that same 3.8 GB takes less than 15 if i remove the card from the device and put in in the card reader.
Long story shorty, im reverting back to HTC_Sync_2.0.40. Sometimes less is more.
Funny that now the new sync is no longer availble on HTC site and the link was changed back to HTC_Sync_2.0.38

Hmmm...
You probably want to get on the ball with finding this software as it really has been pulled from the site. Some people have upped the new version for download, so do a search, grab it while its hot and sit on it if you want to sideload with the software (without rooting).
Edit: You can grab it from this thread if you don't have it already

I downloaded this one, the one from HTC's site (before it was removed) and even tried the old version (.38) and NONE of them recognize my phone when I plug it in and tell the phone to use HTC Sync. The phone tries to find it running on my PC but can't. Any ideas? I'm running Win7 64.
is there a way to use htc sync pc application with hd2 to sync contacs music and more
bumbing............
no...answer???
If you need to sync contacts and calendar with Outlook use Android Sync. It's still in beta so there may be some problems (it doesn't support recurrent appointments as an example).
Hello. I tested using Android Sync with the FroyoStone Series - Version 1 (07-Aug-2010) build and was not able to perform a sync as the Android Sync app would not recognize my TMobile HD2. As I understand it, the FroyoStone build does not yet fully support USB so this may be why I observed the aforementioned results.
works with froyostone sense, the newest kernel and HTC Sync 3.0.5422
Yes you can
I have HTC sync working flawless on newest MattC 1.6B.
Download and install this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=726504
Reboot after install
Plug in phone and choose htc sync option.
Make sure drivers install correctly....if not you need this
http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html
Check for update inside HTC sync
Download and Install update
Turn off sync for contacts and calenders (Kept getting unable to read from PIM message with these on and then sync cancelled)
**First sync takes a while if you have alot of file, but after that it is smooth as butta**
If anyone has a workaround for contacts and calenders please let me know as this would be handy!
Hope it works!
There is an android sync at android-sync.com for outlook sync. Seems good..

Are you sure that HTC sync is sync-ing contacts properly with outlook 2007?
In my case it leaves the phone numbers in fields "car", "Radio", "Assistant" etc. in a contact in outlook 2007.
I am using latest 3.11.55 ver of HTC Sync.
Any body with such issues?

Sorry for bumping an old thread.
This is what I am looking for, but you have to pay for it, as the trial only syncs 20 contacts.
Why should I pay for something that is still in beta and I feel it should be free, since android is free....
Or am I just being stupid? Are there any other free 'syncs' that I can use? I just want to sync my contacts....

IT IS CONFIRMED
new version of HTC Sync syncs all the fields of outlook on my desktop.
Now Android is a welcome platform....
Can anyone recomend a working method for syncing my android HD2 with outlook as this is a key feature for me if i want to run android FT.
Mine syncs without any problem through my exchange account. As far as anything special to do it I use all the same settings as I did in WinMo. Works like a charm.
Are you having trouble at a specific step?
Sent from my Android HD2 via XDA app
It's not possible to Sync directly with USB as far as I know...not easily anyway.
What I did was install "Google Calendar Sync" and sync my Outlook with my Gmail account. This can sync Outlook to Gmail on a schedule so it stays updated.
Then in Android, sync with my Gmail account.
gsyncit
i use gsyncit, which syncs calendar, tasks, notes and contacts. it's not free, but very good. since this solution i didn't use winmo again...
SYncMyCal
SyncMyCal for me. Not free again but allows update to my Google account and works well. Haven't use ActiveSync or whatever it is called now for months....
Android-Sync ( PRE-ALPHA )
Exchange is the best way. Microsoft is supposed to be adding Exchange/ActiveSync to Live accounts. Some accounts already have access. Bing it.
Until you are migrated try gsyncit. , I use gsyncit for my kid's accounts and it works rather well.
Sent from my HD2 via XDA App (mattc 1.5 build)
I have the configuration below and it seems to offer syncing of contacts, calendar, and mail. However, i have a large contact database and so uploaded it to GMail to sync instead. Still, I'll look at these recommendations to see if they will work better. Right now, USB isn't working in most HD2 builds so the point is moot...
I found Android-Sync works for me. Very basic interface, but it's free ...and it actually does the job!
Guys, I use "Android PC Suite v1.3.1.7" google it.
During install it installs USB drivers so connect is possible and working.
Prog on chinese but tapping on the left upper corner and choosing third line in menu you can switch to english.
Then - Managment-Contacts-Import from Outlook. That it.
It is already released to PC Suite For Android V1.5.8.98 and you can download update here or autoupdate the old one.
http://download.pandaapp.com/?app=soft&controller=android&action=show&f_id=1892
pcsuite_for_android_1.3.1.70 would not run correctly under 64bit Windows 7. After installation, launch the EXE and then Windows says that the program shut down. Then, a process attempts to download an update which then fails with a timeout error.
pc suite thing does not work for me. i used energy android
I've confirmed that PC Suite For Android V1.5.8.98 allows me to transfer my Outlook contacts from my PC directly to my phone. My phone is running the FroyoStone build.
I was not able to transfer calendar items in this manner as I received a message that said a calendar connector was not installed.
Please note that the transfer of contacts does not appear to be a sync. During an experiment, I transferred one contact from Outlook on my PC to my phone. Then, I modified the contact on my PC. Next, I re-transfered the contact from my PC to my phone. The software detected a conflict and then created a duplicate record on my phone.
I think however that this software is a great work-around for folks who need to transfer contacts from Outlook on their PC to their phone without having to use their Google account.
Thanks to arturw for this suggestion.
I am using Froyostone V1 and Exchange syncs perfectly over the air without adding any app or widget. Guess Sense adds this? Why would you need usb sync?

Go Android PC Suite
This is a fantastic application if you can handle the bad translations into English and the odd Chinese character. Does everything I need including Syncing APK's etc etc.
I am running [RE-BUILD][23.08.2010][mattc Leo+Froyo w/Sense 1.5b] w/1GB Data+Led+OC by Caedanne. It has been working like a treat.
Now with Android PC Suite I will shortly be able to tweak the phone and post my first Android Home Screen.
I am a convert
I set up my WM ROM with MS exchange and it imported the settings across when I booted up Haret. Therefore my Android is always up to date with the server list of contacts, calendar appts and email. It does however mean running MS Exchange which is not everyone's cup of tea.

I'm currently running the roms in my sig. I'm absolutely loving the americandroid (even though I'm not american! ), but I have a problem.
My previous android installation used HTC Sense and HTC Sync. This build doesn't have those, thus I can't sync my phone with my outlook.
I've exported from outlook and imported to Gmail, but it's very inconvenient having to do that every time something changes.
Is there a way to automatically sync my phone with outlook when cradled? If not, perhaps to autosync outlook to google? I've been looking for this for weeks, but haven't yet found a permanent solution. Please suggest!
Thanks in advance!
Just to make sure, you want to sync outlook as a stand alone client or is it apart of an Exchange combination?
In 'accounts & sync' there should be 'corperate email', just follow the input screens & you should have it on your mobile - I currently have it setup to sync email, calendar, and contacts.
If it's the later option you can use Google Sync I believe

Yes, that's the PC client, but your phone needs to support it, which needs HTC Sense & Sync.

Use MyPhone Explorer. It can sync via USB or WLAN. Install the actual version via market on the phone and install it on Pc. It's better than HTC Sync, because you can filter items and choose a different contact/calender folder.

You sir, are my hero!
Since Kies doesn't work with some of the latest ICS custom ROMs, can anybody recommend a good utility to syncronise contacts between Outlook & the Note, or as an alternative Outlook & GMail
Thanks
Take a look at Gsyncit. It costs, but it works. Sync is from Outlook to/from the Google cloud and then between the Google cloud and your phone(s). That should make it independent of the ROM on your phone.
My girlfriend has a copy running between Outlook 2010 and Froyo on her Motorola Defy. I have a copy running between Outlook 2003 and my GB Note, and ZTE Blade on Eclair and GB before that.
It means that sync can occur in the background and you don't have to take any positive action to force a sync between laptop/PC and your phone. So long as they are each on the net at some point the sync will just go ahead automatically.
I might add that for the first year of use there did seem to be some instability, with Outlook sometimes being crashed by the plugin on startup, but never any data loss as a result. For the last several months - certainly all of 2012 so far - it has been faultless for both of us.
Hi tdodd,
I have a similar question, my father uses a HTC Touch Pro, and has around 1000 contacts on it.
I have finally convinced him to upgrade to the Galaxy Note, but now I need to solve the sync problem of all his contacts.
The biggest problem that I think I will have will be that outlook always shows the Last name first and only than the first name. Would the Gsyncit program identify correctly the names or would I need to edit each contact to change the first name and last name?
I am looking right now for a way to transfer the contacts from Windows Mobile 6.1 to the Android 2.3.6.
Can SMS and Call logs be transferred also or those ones would get lost?
Thank you all for your help.
To my knowledge and experience Gsyncit will sync contacts, calendar events, notes and tasks. Maybe there is new stuff in Outlook 2010 which I don't know about, but for me it does not sync call logs or SMS messages because, apart from anything else, Outlook 2003 does not hold such information.
As for contact field mapping, in Outlook you have individual fields for surname, forename and other parts of the name if required. The "File As" display is assembled within Outlook from those individual fields if they exist. If you only input data to Outlook in the File As field then I'm not exactly sure how that gets handled, but it should sync across one way or another.
Since Gsyncit is only responsible for sync between Outlook and the Google Cloud it should not matter which Android phone you have because it is down to Google/Android to take care of the sync between the cloud and your own device. That part of the sync has nothing to do with Gsyncit.
If you have a Windows 6.1 device (I used to have a WM5 phone before moving to Android) then it should be simple to sync contacts into Outlook using MS tools. Once in Outlook you could use Gsyncit to sync the Outlook contacts up to the cloud and then let Google sync from the cloud to the Android phone.
However, if it is a one off exercise only, with no sync back and forth required in the future then I believe you can export the contacts from Outlook to a CSV file and then import the CSV file to Google on the web from where they will propogate to the Android phone. For such a one off exercise there is no need to purchase Gsyncit at all.
When I bought Gsyncit for myself there was a free trial available for something like five days and 20 contacts/events. So you can always give it a spin for free and see if it does what you need, assuming the trial is still part of the offering. My purchase was 20 months ago.

Kies should work. You might need to switch the mode your Note is connecting to the computer.
I used this app when I was having issues and Kies works perfectly again.
