Great! I'll try and post the result. :cyclops:

no but simple file sharing is still a pain in the arse in both versions and is the primary reason network sharing doesn't work.
Theres nothing simple about it!
go to folder options in the CP and click view
then go to the bottom and turn off sharing wizard

File sharing has been dirt easy since Vista.
Open up explorer
Click network
Click on the computer you want to share with

In practice it often isn't! Lol give me AD any day over simple workgroups

put ur phone in bootloader and cradel it u will see vista will detect it.
There are simple instructions here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=291723&highlight=vista
Have you ever heard about the wiki?
Vista must die today!!!!
If only new users spend some time reading wiki, everything is there... When I had to upgrade using windows vista, it worked the first time... I just read and follow the step by step instruction from wiki...
Thanks, it's work!!!
Dangit, I can get these upgrades to work when I'm at work on an XP machine, but I can't for the life of me get it to work on my home Vista 64bit machines. And yes, I HAVE read the wiki, and this post, and that post and many other posts that all give the same directions.
Disabling driver signature enforcement on the 64bit driver doesn't do any good either. It gives an error trying to install the driver.
You just gotta love computers. A ton of people can get something to work, and then a person that programs for a living will come along and can't get it to work. Makes you feel like a total goober. *sigh*
Maybe I have an old XP machine gathering dust in storage somewhere. *grumble*

Step by Step instructions for installing XP

Hello all.
I will update these instructions as needed.
With these instructions you can install any version of windows XP, SP2 or SP3. It doesn´t need to be a tablet edition. I recommend using a lite or optimized version.
As far as I know, only two things are not working, resolution changer and tablet input panel. Both will be fixed soon.
You have to install Activesync too if you want to access the other half of your Shift.
Thank you to all the people who contributed on the other thread!
Enjoy!
1.- Download and save to a USB disk drive:
http://www.filefactory.com/file/fa3eb2/n/drivers_shift_XP_rar

or http://torrents.thepiratebay.org/4449594/drivers_shift_XP.rar.4449594.TPB.torrent
Be sure to extract the rar file before starting or have a unrar program installer available, you cannot extract rar files on a newly installed windows XP!
2.- Install XP. Use your own version in your own language!
Choose same disk and fast NTFS format. Use the administrator account for now.
Let it finish ignoring any message about the screen format, etc

19.- Install the WLAN drivers , from the hardware manager, right button over marvell SDIO… update driver, and select the HTC Shift XP Drivers\WLAN folder.
Thanks for the step-by-step guide dproldan! I have a couple questions:
- What is left out as far as functionality with the XP install compared to Vista or will everythign work as far as the camera, control center buttons, etc...
- Any hopes soon for resolution changer and tablet input panel functioning?
- Without the mobility center built-in Vista, is the conenction to snapview done just via active sync?
- Download link for TabletPC_PatchXPproSP2.exe does not work and torrent has absolutely no availability. Any alternatives?
Thanks again!
Thanks Great
This is what we needed good job again thanks.
Hope sombody do the same with the flash rom to get the gps etc.

CRC failed in Temp\TABLETPC\l1033.dlm
Which drivers are for the G3 modem? I dont see them in the XP Drivers pack, or, are they built-in in XP already?
Also, any luck now or in the future to make the GPS work under XP?

You can use the 3G modem with USBTool and internet sharing programs from the windows mobile side, the RNDIS drivers are installed automatically the first time you connect.
GPS works fine on XP using franson GPSGate and activesync.

Will things still be controlled in SnapVUE?
I say this because my audio is dead, because snapvue is dead--if I install XP will sound be dead or does installing XP Usurp Snapvue?
Here's some comments surrounding these questions.
1. Your SnapVue must be Liberated to use 3G for XP.
2. You must install ActiveSync on XP
3. Go into SnapVUe and open USB Tool and "Attach to Vista"
4. Active sync will start.
5. Once connected/sync'd go to Snap Vue, Programs, Internet sharing. XP will find the network sharing connection and set it up
6. You now have 3G on XP
ultraman982 - why not ressurect SnapVue or is it totally screwed? HTC have the clear SnapVue tool which I have used successfully...turned it back to normal. I have had nil sound issues.
In fact, to get things as clean as possible I did an Fcn F3 for Vista, cleared SnapVue then started from there. Good to start with a clean base.

Good work ! Very Well !!!
Only 2 notes :
1- what about right buttons ?
2- i must entered by recovery console for copying sdbus.sys, otherwise XP put in \system32\drivers an older version of this file.
Sorry for my bad English - I love spaghetti & pomodoro !

-right buttons work as expected, keep the stilus pressed until a mouse icon appears
- I didn't have to do anything with the recovery console, but I used an optimized version. I'll update the instructions if more people report the same problem.

two buttons on the right of shift.
Nice job!
Thanks for sharing. Now I get it
I'm stuck with the cygwin part of the installation. Can anybody help me please with a more detailed instruction on how to insert the ioperm command? When I download the whole cygwin thing from the download source it seem gigantic. Do I need all this?

2. Install from Local Directory + Next
3. In Root Directory Box: C:\cygwin (the default folder) + next
4. In the Local Package Directory box specify the directory where you have saved the CYGWIN Folder (leave the default) + next
5. In select package windows expand DEVEL and click on the work "skip" in the same line where there is IOPERM + Next
6. Unselect icons on desktop and start menu and finish.
7. Run cygwin.bat from folder c:\cygwin
8. In the cygwin windows type “ioperm –i” + enter and “exit” + enter

Hi,
thanks a lot for your work! It is excellent!
I have installed XP Tablet Pc Edition 2005, I have not used this point:
6.- run TabletPC_PatchXPproSP2.exe, it will extract files to C:\temp,
Go to C:\temp and run step1.reg,
Run Step2.bat
Leave it alone until de hard disk stops and reboot
For this point I have restarted the PC with recovery console for copy correctly the file:
18.- copy HTC Shift XP Drivers\WLAN\sdbus.sys to c:\windows\system32\drivers\ say yes to the replace dialog and reboot.
One issue:
after I have installed all the drivers I have tried to install a Bluetooth mouse....the installation is finished ok...the mouse works...but I cannot use the touchscreen...
I have reinstalled the touch driver....all works ok...but at next reboot touch stop working...
Michele
ioperm...
thank you, sensa, for your quick reply.
When I type the command "ioperm -i" into the cygwin window I get this:
"ioperm.sys is already installed. StartService function call failed."
Any idea?

Unable to copy files via ActiveSync

Hi Guys
I can connect my Leo via active sync and sync it with outlook, or add files to sync via the same method. But when I want to explore my device via my computer I can only view files. That goes to Leo itself and SD card. When I connect Leo as Diskdrive I can edit files on SD card.
Sorry, under Windows 7 Sync Centre I can create folders and copy files under Computer/"mydevice" on both the device itself and the memory card when connected using the phone's ActiveSync connection. I'm guessing you're using Vista or XP? Some helpful person here may ask you to confirm.
I use 7 as well.
However I had no problems with XDA Orbit/Orbit2, HTC Touch Diamond 2 under XP/Vista and 7. It is only HD2 that has a problem there.
Seems like drivers to me.

Well I want to re-arrange my start menu using my laptop. I active sync it and navigate to my device\windows\start menu\programs. In there if I try to move/copy/delete/create new files/folders/shortcuts I get access denied. I want to copy more wallpapers to my documents\wallpapers and get the same error.
I want to copy files to my SD card and get access denied. I can open the files, like music or pictures, to view but that is it.
I also can not copy any files out of the device to desktop.

Getting "access denied" seems to indicate you do not have the proper authority to access the files. This is just a wild guess, but you may try it anyway. Right click on the Windows Mobile Device program, and check properties. There is an option to run the program as administrator under the Compatibility tab. Maybe this will give you the authority you need to access these files. For me, no problems, running Windows 7 Ultimate, 64 bit.

I am really curious about the logical steps you used to reach the conclusion that his laptop is infected, and why you suggest the only solution is to reinstall Windows. Even if his computer were infected, is not reinstalling Windows a rather extreme solution? Surely a good antivirus program or running HouseCall is a much more reasonable solution.
So basically you can browse the folders of the SD and the storage, but you cannot process any files.
Other than the protected shortcuts (most of the supplied shortcuts are system and readonly) I do not have any access problems via activesync.
Is your USBtoPC set to ActiveSync?

How to transfer files onto it via Mac?

With my HTC Inspire 4G I plug in the USB cable and it pops up as a drive to transfer files onto (ie movies), however with the galaxy tab 10.1 it doesn't. I rooted it on a windows machine, so wondering how to make it a USB drive when I plug in, so I can transfer movies and files from my Mac.
Anyone?
It doesn't mount as a USB drive on a Mac - you have to use this utility to put files on the device.
Apparently I'm too new auser to post a link so I'll write it out:
android dot com forward-slash filetransfer

good find with the app, but it doesn't work. when I plug in it just says "No Android device found" and on the tablet it says Connected - Press home button to quit keys... but it doesn't mount a drive or open up file transfer box. Am I missing something?
Same here - AFT doesn't work on Snow Leopard, much less Lion. Please tell me that you, or someone else has discovered a solution since this post three months ago?
I believe there is a thread on this in the development section. But to answer your question anyways, you simply need to go to Samsung's support website and after entering your product model, go to the downloads section and install the Kies software for Mac. Unfortunately you must use this version of Kies since the GT 10.1 can't be mounted as mass storage on Macs.
Guys, use Websharing. Look for it in the market. Basically turns Tab into a web server on the network accessible via any web browser.
That's what I use. Android File Transfer (AFT) does not work, and Apple broke/changed something in their AFP. I used to use the LAN feature in Estrongs until Lion came out and borked that.
Sent from my Nexus S 4G using Tapatalk
AFT will not work because it is built using a library of libmtp that is too old for the Galaxy Tab. Hopefully Google will update it soon to support the Galaxy Tab.
I tried to compile libmtp to support it, but couldn't get it to work. I'll try again when I'm not busy and see what happens.
In the meantime, you can use Samsung Kies software, or DDMS if you have the android SDK

Not a mac guy but had the same problem on my pc. Ended up installing Remote Web Desktop (Smartdog studio) from android marketplace on the tab. It's free. Then used filezilla (or any other ftp program) from my pc. Worked great, so no more worries about USB connectivity.
I recently bought a tab 8.9 and I was very disappointed by this problem. I'm going through FTP right now.
Is it possible to enable normal file transfer if I root my tablet?
theres a way..but u need to have ADB ..also need to be home to let u know..
there is this ADB tool app that u run and it will detect ur tab..i got mine detected mine is 10.1
I've never really understood this problem - is it something that will be sorted it with the newer Android firmwares such as 3.2? I had a Vega running vegacomb 3.2 and that mounted on the Mac without a problem.
Use File Expert, they have a built in FTP & websharing. It works great with a FTP app on the Mac.

I tried turn on and off several times. Before and after Kies opening every possibility just not work. But until at last it just can sync with Kies by itself. I really don't understand how can it work.
Any way via Kies you can only music, photo and video. You have any idea how to push PDF files into it??
i use adb push for putting everything on my tablet....its a lot easier than waiting for Kies.
I have mac and use this method for file transfer to my Galaxy Tab 10.1 :
-install android-sdk-mac_x86 from Android developers site.
-open 'tool' folder and search for ddms ( android-sdk-mac_x86/tools/ddms )
-connect your galaxy tab to mac via usb
-dubbleclick on ddms (it will start terminal and java) new window 'Dalvik Debug Monitor will open
-click on your device listed in this new window
-from file menu open Device -> File Explorer
-new window with folders of your Galaxy tab will pop up
- navigate to any folder on your device and just drag and drop any file from your computer finder window.

+1 on the File Expert Method.
Download FE (free) and Cyberduck (free) unless you already have a FTP server/client program.
Turn on sharing via FTP on tab, then enter in the settings on Cyberduck, and voila! Wirelessly connected on your local net.
Just drag and drop any file to any directory. I've loaded multiple items ranging from 100mb to 1.34gb in minutes. movies, pics, pdfs, you name it.
I feel this is the easiest of all, and kies actually works for me!

This isn't development, nor is it hacking.
But, try getting a disc to reinstall off of.
I tried download but what I really want to know is how to access recovery partitions if that happens.

4. The next step is to mount the ISO file to the new virtual drive you created in Step 3. Locate the ISO file on your PC again, right-click it and select PowerISO, Mount Image to Drive (x) (whatever PowerISO has labelled the virtual drive as).
5. The ISO file will now be mounted on the virtual drive. You can access it in My Computer in the same way you would a real drive. Double-click the virtual drive to open the ISO “disc”..
6. Open File explorer> Computer> Deceives and Removable Storage> Click "Setup.exe" go through the procedure
