Activesync: Unknown device

Hi all,
It's been a while, but I am back with HD2. I have a problem. I have win7 business on all off my computers, I instaled latest activesync, but I keep getting error connection. When installing drivers, I get the unknown device, so instalation failed.
Not even bluetooth recognition works.
Any suggestions, please?

If you are using Windows 7 Business, I would guess you mean you are using Windows Mobile Device Center, yes? In Windows Device Manager are you set up to automatically download drivers? Are you getting any errors in the Sync Center? There is a lot of information you have to supply before anyone can troubleshoot the problem you are having.
There are a lot of steps you can take, most of which you can find by doing a search of XDA. If that fails, then come back with a more detailed explanation of what you have done, and people will try to help troubleshoot for you.
Thanks for looking,
and yes I have been searching a lot for information allready before I made a new thread.
I have win7 business and yes it does download drivers automaticly.
I will try and search for manual driver setup, but would be very thankful if any of you could give me some hints.

In Device Manager you can click on Portable Devices and see if you see your HD2 there, if you do, then right click on it. You can find options to manually install drivers. If that does not work, in the Mobile Device Center you can configure how the center is supposed to connect to your HD2. Have you tried that yet? Also, make sure you are not using a USB hub for connections. You can try changing USB ports to try to reinstall drivers.
I am trying hard, this is the error I get:
P.S.: in activesync all options are on, so no problems there, but I have tried all of them.
In that case, try uninstalling the device in Device Manager, and starting over again. It does seem to be a driver problem. Another trick you can try is on the HD2, under Settings, USB to PC, try unticking Enable advanced network functionality, and then try to reinstall the drivers.
Another thing you can try is deleting the partnership in Windows Mobile Device Center and creating a new partnership.
Is there a wa I could find the driver somewhere and install it myself?

In the Leo ROM forum the thread on MTTY has some Windows 7 drivers you can download I believe, but that will take awhile.
Are you using Win7 32 or 64 bit?
win7 32 bit. I tried to download them through windows update, but I got an error as well.
So I am on a quest for drivers....

If you are familiar with computers, you can try this with Win7 drivers you download for HD2.
You did try uninstalling your device in Device Manager, and trying another USB port to install it on? It seems really odd that Win7 is not finding the right drivers for you, and that persists even after you uninstall and reinstall the device.
No luck so far, any more ideas?
Update:
I tried the same thing on another laptop, same specs, same win7 business, worked like a charm.
So must be this win7 problem I think. Any ideas what to do? I can't remove mobile device center, so I could try and reinstall it. The icons stay in my control panel.
Anybody?
I just can't imagine this is only happening to me.

Did you have any luck yet in solving the problem?
Nope my dear helper,
I found out this is windows7 problem. I still get the first error can't install device driver, because the device is not installed on the computer.
Something must be wrong, but I was getting a head, network driver installed fine, windows mobile device program runs fine, I made a clean install with register delete etc...
I just can' seem to find this to work.
i had some problem the first time i plugged my HD2 on win7 64 ultim.
nothing happened, no activesync, no nothing...
i opened sync center, nothing...
windows updates found me windows mobile device center with upgrade devices, the thing installed but all still worked bad, impossible to activesync, no driver for my HD2, and i know nothing about phones and windows, it's my first windows mobile.
so after hours of fighting, i decided to DL the app windows mobile device center on microsoft download website, then i installed the thing and oh miracle, my HD2 was detected, the app Win M D Center was asking me now with the pic of my hd2 in the prog to chose between settings as the first thing installed by windows update always froze at win mob device center splash screen...
i resume here but it took me the all afternoon to finally resolve this problem.
something went wrong with windows update install and to reinstall the all app was the easy way to fix the activesync problem.
If you did already re-download Windows Mobile Device Center and that did not work on the one recalcitrant computer, maybe you might need to update your BIOS or download the latest drivers for you motherboard. Sometimes problems can crop up if the computer does not have the most updated BIOS and motherboard drivers. How old is the computer you are using?
Well, after calling microsoft support and HTC support and doing for 36 hours nothing but trying I finally reinstalled my hole system. So new clean install of windows 7 business and it works like acharm. Where did it went wrong, I don't know, there had to be some register issue I think. Windows mobile center worked ok, the connection with the phone worked, but just not recognizing the device. Well I would of done the instalation sooner, If I knew this one is gonna be so hard to do.

Well, glad you finally solved your problem, and that this time the blame was not just placed on HTC or the Leo. Sad though that you had to go through so much to get the darn thing to work. I just installed a new operating system for my neighbor, and there is still more work to do on it. Not a fun thing to do.

[Q] Any one else having trouble with usb ?

Sorry if this is a duplicate couldnt see anything about it.
installed wp7 every thing works fine
so i thought id try and connect it up to my computer
the phone and computer make a noise when connected
but there is no signs of it on the laptop
it wont connect to zune or wmdc Helpppp.
ps. im using windows 7 operating system for my laptop.
Why are you posting a question in the development forum. This is why mods have a full time job cleaning the forums
MY bad
my bad, how do i move it ?
I'm not sure whether this helps, but I'll try. On my PC the Mobile Device Center doesn't recognize my LEO70, you have to download the Zune application for that. No big deal really, you can do with that app everything you were used to in MDC.
Fix.
I managed to fix it in device manager it was a corrupt driver.
i just right click and reinstalled and it worked from there.
cheers for the help though people!
I have this same problem, but I couldn't seem to fix it. There is no driver at all. It says device not recognized when i go to device manager. As winmo 6.5 and android, the usb/laptop detects my hd2 just fine. But as soon as I flashed wp7, it is not being detected. *pull hair*
anyone kind enough to post the HD2 WP7 usb driver so that I could manually install it?

HD2 isnt recognized by my computer

Hey guys. I know there was a similar thread about this somewhere but the problem I have isnt exactly the same as the one discussed in that one. Problem is my phone isnt recognized by my computer at all. The phone will charge but thats about it. I have tried the device manager disabling all the devices connected through usb and such but no success so far. Any idea what the problem can be?
please install Zune if you havent done so thats all you need
are u trying to dual boot wp7 and android? or u just have wp7 on ur phone?
I already have Zune installed. My HD2 wont even sync with zune. And its just WP7 on the phone

have you tried uninstalling and reinstalling Zune maybe something is conflicting with the detection of your phone/zune

Have you tried to see if another computer recognizes your phone when connected? Typically, the HTC phone drive should install as soon as you connect your phone to the computer.
Try putting the phone in either HSPL or MAGDLR mode and see if it's recognized by your computer as a HTC phone device.
Thanks for the replies guys i solved the problem. I tried using a different USB cord and it worked not sure why the other one didnt work. Thanks again
Edit: ok new problem now i cant successfully install the drivers so i cant sync to Zune. Anyone know what I can do about this?
hmm have you tried another USB port what exactly does device manager show ?
To access device manager :
on XP
Click Start>Right Click My Computer>Click Properties>Click On HardWare Tab>Click Device Manager.
on Vista/7
Click Start>Right Click My Computer>Device Manager
do a windows update if running vista
I updated and everything is working fine now thanks a lot for the help guys

[Q] cannot push xap files to my phone

so ive tried everything from every write up and tutorial.
I just cant seem to push anything to my phone with windows deployer or tom xap and xapdeploy. the closest i got was with xapdeploy. it actually seemed to connect then gave me an 800xxxx error number.
i spent hours and hours installing all the giant windows programs that they told me to. nothing worked. i just have less space on my computer.
I can connect with zune and sync and put music on just fine. but all the deployers just tell me they cant connect.
and when i opened the chevron app it said relock instead of unlock so i clicked it and i think im done for good. i pretty sure the rom i used is already unlocked.
i might try to reinstall wp7 and try again or just go back to android.
any suggestions?
the only thing i can think of is that i dl'd and installed .net framework4 before i realized that it was in my windows updates. then i did my widows updates after. im running vista 32bit by the way.

So you can sync it, are you synced as a guest or have you setup your device?
I dont think guest works, although im not sure as i have always setup my device rather thanusing a guest.
secondly, dont click on relock, it will re lock it, it should say relock, not unlock. if it says unlock the you need to unlock it
finally, did you run the deployer as admin?
yes i had it fully registered with the activation code i got from an outsourced microsoft rep. I couldn't tell where he was from but he said "Y as in JELLO" and "K as in KILO" so i assume mexico.
i can download apps form the market and use all the features.
I think thats what you mean by guest. Im pretty sure i signed into zune with my live ID even.
Im going to task deuce nine it. then install this other rom i DL'd. try again.
Put new rom on it. same thing just much slower for some reason.
activated synced.
Chevron says Uh Oh. plaese make sure connected. make sure zune is running
tom xap says. make sure unlocked. zune conn.
and now xapdeploy says. error cannot start oblect referance not in instance of an object.
Goodbye windows. Hello android. Maybe ill try again after i spend a cpl hours uninstalling all this garbage off of my computer.
I dont like having to use zune anyways.
What Rom are you using? Try Xbmods rom with chevron built in already. I had trouble with chevron's independently. Whatever I tried never worked so I decided to try XBMod's and everything works like a charm though I haven't sideloaded anything except that one time. There's not much stuff to download for WP7 just yet.

[Q] USB connection problem - Donation & eternal gratitude for the solution!

Hi everybody,
I hope you can help me because I really can't find the solution:
When I connect my HD2 WP7-device to my computer it charges, but isn't recognized.
- Zune won't start automatically and won't find any device.
- Device Manager doesn't show any unknown device or something that could be my phone.
What I have tried so far:
- Used a XP3 and W7 x64 machine (also ones without any history with a WP7-phone)
- Used a lot of different cables
- Used a lot of different USB-ports
- reinstalled WP7
- reinstalled zune
- (de)installed activesync
- I'm not sure, but first I had a dual-boot solution with Android and I recall USB also didn't work there.
I started to think the USB-connection of my phone might be broken, but when I use MAGDLR, the USB works as mass storage and I can also use the USB flasher. The Bootloader also works, so I tried the following:
- (using bootloader) restored the HD2 in its original state with a official stock ROM and original (locked) HSPL
- Installed a Android ROM: the USB also does NOT work with WM6.5 or Android.
Does anyone know anything I can try now? And Yes, I have read all of the threads of other people with USB-issues and the MS-solutions, but none of them had the solution for me...
Coffee-donation for whoever has the golden tip
Hello guys, I don't mean to hijack the thread, but I am facing a similar issue.
I installed the LEO70 ROM on my HD2 when it first came out, and forgot all about it. I now want to install the NoDo (7932) update to test it out (and maybe move permanently to an Android ROM eventually when I decide I don't like it). I am facing an issue; I want to upgrade my MagLDR to 1.13 (from 1.12) and ROMUpdateUtility doesn't recognize my phone, giving me the 'Error 260 - Connection' error.
I did remove Windows Mobile Device Center a month or two ago... could this be the problem? I have the latest Zune software installed on my Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 (x86-64) machine, and when I plug in the phone, Zune automatically starts and recognizes my phone, telling me there's a phone update available (from February that I need to install to enable future updates). I know it will kill my phone, so I won't install it. Also, USBMassStorage mode works nicely.
Any ideas?
Hi sclip,
I don't mind if you try to find an answer to your problem too, but it seems like a different one, because mine does work in bootloader/magdlr-mode.
BTW. I just installed the stock WM6.5 Rom of HTC, and USB still doesn't work! Can it be the radio of hardSPL or is it just broken?
****, after installing the stock WM6.5, it won't install another Radio/MAGDLR using bootloader, it stucks at the 0%.
I think I might haved destroyed my HD2

That did the trick, thanks. To bad it didn't help my USB problem...
since youve tried just about everything else try this
try using USBDVIEW and delete all the USB drivers
also install it on a different PC that hasnt had WP7 connected to it before
to continue with fault testing will requirer us to rule out the PC or the phone, at the mo it could be anything.
since you have Windows 7 install the XP virtual machine and use that, i believe the VM now supports pass through on USB so it should work, i have an old IrDA adaptor that wont install on my w7 PC but it will on the XP VM

Thanks for the USBDVIEW-tip, quite a nice piece of software! However it didn't help me with my problem. Using a computer which never had WP7 connected before didn't help either...
