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.
How do you get this damn phone to connect to my Windows 7 laptop, windows does not find drivers for my device ?????
WM 6.5 and Windows 7 no talky to each other.
wont connect under Windows Mobile Connect, can only get the SD Card to come up in Windows 7 Explorer.
When I change the USB to PC settings on the SNAP to Active Sync then Windows 7 cant find the drivers ??
Windows Mobile Connect just says no device connected, under device damager it comes up as unknown device....
Please help a noob out
have you had the mobile device center installled in your PC?
check your AV software... on my laptop the firwall of the Mcafee block it. only when I turn it of, I can get it to sync
hi guys, thanks. Yes I do have Mobile Device Center installed and I will try checking my firewall settings.
Just want to copy the pics from the camera album to my laptop. Would suck if I have to move these pics in the phone from the phones memory to the SD card and then link to my laptop to copy them.
well I don't have W7 so I can't say. but you can launch the camera app, go to the options and change where the pics are saved.
Have you got the 'Enable faster data sync' ticked or unticked in the settings>USB to PC?
That should not be a incompatibility issue : mine works well with 7.
It just does not pop up the way ActivSync does. You have to click the WMDC icon in the process bar on your PC.
Hi guys
Sorry i did not reply sooner, got this working now.
Under device damager, it comes up as unknown Device.
Updated these drivers and all is working now.
Thanks guys

what drivers did you use? i have this same phone but cannot for the life of me get this to sync! can you post a link where you got the drivers from?
also, are you using 32bit or 64bit Windows 7?
try going to the htc website, support page and see if you can download new drivers for windows 7. If they dont have them try using the windows vista drivers if they are there.
Where to find driver?
I am having the same problem.
Windows 7 device manager can not find drivers for the HTC S521, and I can not find any on the HTC website.
I would appreciate if somebody could share a link.
Thanks
Start, Settings, Connections, More, USB to PC, take off the check mark (square has to blank), OK

Connect HTC to PC, Start ActiveSynch, on your HTC go to Start, Settings, Connections, More..., USB to PC, take off the check mark (square remains blank), OK

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

My EU HD2 is running MAGLDR 1.13 which I installed from my Windows 7 PC, but I threw it away because it was too slow. I installed Windows for Parallels on my MacBook running Lion. I put my HD2 in USB Flasher mode, and it says "wait USB" but it doesn't say "USB" after that. On my computer it says "the device driver was not successfully installed". I tried installing the Google USB driver but it didn't install properly. I also tried following this thread, but I didn't understand it much. Can someone help me out? Thanks.
Problem Solved
Dear All,
I was facing the same Issue. And I know this thread is very old and Issue may be resolved. Just in case somebody like me searching for resolution can do the following :
1. for XP => Install Active Sync
2. for Win Vista / Win 7 => Install Windows Mobile Device Center

@me_malik: Are you sure this way it will help?
As far as I remember, Active sync/WMDC is for devices running on windows mobile up to version 6.5.5 and are discontinued afterward. The USB drivers installed for MAGDLR or CLK are different and can be found in the AndroidSDK folders.
I am responding because I am also facing the same issue and WMDC is already installed on my computer for the other HTC phone still running on Windows Mobile 6.5.5.
Thanks for the response though.
Hey There!
Hope i'm i the right section to post my problem.
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
