I have been trying this for hours now. I can't get the drivers for my 1024leo to install on Vista32. I have installed Windows Mobile sync software and it tries to detect the device, but it keeps ending up the same way....unspecified device and shows up in device manager as unknown
any suggestions?
Okay the 20 some odd times I did this last night it didn't work on Vista32....but after a few tries on XP I got it to work by selecting disable charging while connected to usb sync..

Uninstall your antivirus then connect your HD2 via usb.... you should see magic. When you've connected and synced (sanc?), reinstall your antivirus.
P.S. If this works, you may have to do this EVERYTIME YOU FLASH YOUR ROM!
Don't have any installed. I don't use windows normally, just couldn't find a way to flash hspl3 from nix. Same problem with xp & activesync 4.5.
After many attempts and reinstalling the sync apps a cpl times I got it to detect correctly once under both vista and xp, but once I tried to flash the spl...it fails and the devicei goes right back to being unknown.

You do have Windows Mobile Device Center installed on Vista and Activesync on XP, right?

Im having a big headache here, I have windows vista enterprise edition (the release version) and i downloaded Windows Mobile Device Center from microsoft. My problem is when ever I try to connect the device, windows installs HTC usb sync and after that I get another message saying I need to install drivers for a "unknown device" I went to device manager and sure enough somehow this "unknown device" is related to my phone, It askes to look for drivers and can not find any. Anyway, this is somehow creating a problem because I can not connect the phone with WMDC.
Thanks for your help,
Chris
Similar problems here with Vista Ultimte RTM. You can also watch here for some answers.

A couple weeks ago I tried to sync my Cingular 8525 but had no luck, Vista managed to find and install some HTC drivers, but I couldn't get active sync to work (mobile device center now in vista). But I could browse the files on the device. Then just today I went into device manager and manually told it to look for new drivers online, it did, found some, and installed them, then mobile device center started working and I could sync. Wahoo!

This just happened to me today after using wmdc on vista business for 2 months. now my device comes up as "uknow device" in the device manager and then a few seconds later I get a popup window telling me that my USB device is unknown.
Damn annoying. im trying to figure out what happened and if i cant, then ill reinstall windows vista. bloody M$ crap.
when Vista prompt u for installing the driver, you have to manually select the driver location! Select driver directory to the Windows directory... Then Vista will be able to locate and loaded the device driver... i tried it works...
good luck

it was working fine for 2 months so I assume the correct drivers were installed. nonetheless, i will try update the driver for "unknown device" if I can find the inf file in the windows directory.
i tried it,
it says that my "Unknown Device" in the USB controllers category has the latest drivers installed.
this is too funny.
not sure what went wrong here.
Ive also uninstalled wmdc and reinstalled it many times and still no luck.
hrrrmmmmm, i feel a format and image coming up soon.
OK, i have solved the problem.
who would have thought I had 2 faulty sync-charge cables. They worked on Sunday and stopped working on Monday.
I noticed this happened after I used WM5torage. This is strange.
Anyways, things are back to normal
I have been sync with Windows Vista Ultimate both USB and Bluetooth for weeks. Especially the Bluetooth works great both sync and install software!!
I am having trouble getting my Wizard to communicate with a computer running Windows XP and ActiveSync 4.5. It's been awhile since I've synced it to an XP machine, as the one I primarily use is Vista, and it seems to work fine. When I plug it in it either sees it as an internet connection, or if I disable the advanced connection settings on my device it seems to install it correctly, but then it doesn't open up ActiveSync.
I'm running a custom WM6 rom that I installed about a year ago, and was looking to upgrade, which I hear XP is the most reliable for. Any idea what the problem could be? I also don't seem to be able to open Activesync by itself when the device is not installed, could it be a problem with the program itself on my XP machine?
yes
It must be the problem on the xp machine unisntall the activesync reset your pc... reinstall it and then i suggest you... if you will upgrade make a hardreset before plug your device to sync.
Well, that got ActiveSync working again on the PC, the icon showed up on the bar and I was able to open the program. But as soon as I plugged in my device, the program closed again, and now it won't open. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling again, but I got the same result. Any other suggestions?
at startup i get the error wcescomm.exe failed to initialize properly and because of that i can't get ActiveSync won't start and i can't sync. i have uninstalled and reinstalled many times but still the same. i have redownloaded the install for ActiveSync and still same results. does anyone have a clue what's wrong. I'm using ActiveSync 4.5 on win xp sp2 with full computer administrator priveleges.

okay so im trying to connect my hd2 to my windows 7 laptop. whenever i connect the two. nothing happens except my phone starts charging!
I tried it on 4 computers, all didn't work
i did the "turn off faster sync thing, that didn't work
ii JUST got this usb cord, so its not broken or anything
i also hard reseted my phone a while back if that helps
thanks in advance
What OS are you running on your HD2?
Windows Mobile 6.5 requires Active Sync to be installed on your machine and should prompt you to do so the first time you connect via USB.
Android should be effortless by just selecting the USB connectivity from the drop down alert menu.
WP7 requires that you have installed the latest version of Windows Mobile Device Center, which can be found by online search. You must download the appropriate x86 or x64 version, as is appropriate to your version of Win7.
Is there a scenario that I've missed?
Thank you for posting!!
my phone runs on windows 6.5.
do i download activesync to my phone or computer? i tried doing it on my computer but it gives me an error :
" This Program is blocked due to compatibility issues"
"previous versions of Active sync cannot be installed on windows vista or later."
i was trying to download Activesync 4.5

I got a HTC HD2 and flashed Windows Phone 7 on it -> This Rom: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1356833
I installed Zune and wanted to connect my device to sync it, but it isnt recognized.. All drivers are installed (Windows Phone Usb, HTC HD2 and so on.) Theres no Error in Device Manager.
When i connect my Device to the USB-Port, Zune starts but it doesnt recognize my HD2. I tried it 1000 times.. installed WMDC, reinstalled Zune, added local service, installed the drivers while beeing in bootloader-menu and so on.
Is there a chance to get my HD2 connected with Zune? I'm using Windows 7 Pro 64bit. But even on WinXp the same probs. Tried 3 cables also)
Thanks in advance,
Andreas
