Vista connection problems

Hi,
My hdd gave up in my laptop other day bought another 1 installed vista
now im having connection problems both with bluetooth and via usb with my
t-mobile ameo
does any 1 know if there is a update some where to get them working again
ive done a windows update and installed windows mobile device centre
thanks

Im running Vista business edition and had no problems at all - even updated my rom!
What do you get when you plus the Ameo in? Does it show up in the Device centre?

sync centre has just got the usual offline folder
windows mobile device centre 6.1 has the mobile device settings and the not
connected bit at the bottom
its so weired it all synced b4 theres nothing different installed setup etc...
on the device it says "to synchronize this device, you must install activesync 4.5 or newer on your desktop computer"
thanks

How Wierd.... mine lliterally just fired up autoomatically.

In your PPC, go to SETTING -> CONNECTIONS -> USB TO PC. Untick the "ENABLE ADVANCED NETWORK FUNCTIONALITY". Remove the connection by unplugging your USB cable and the plugging it again. No guarantee this will work, but you may try.

IT Works
i tried the unticking the advance option still didnt work...
i thought about the user account control in vista this came as my mobile
data card for my laptop wasnt installed correctly and after checking out the
install log and it saying access control n a load of other stuff saying
permission denied etc.... i thought id turn vistas user account control off this
fixed my data card problem ......i then pluged my t-mobile ameo in and hey
presto it picked it up as a black HTC Advantage due to my mobile 6 rom
upgrade

I believe Active Sync won't work on Visat, you need Mobile Device Center, available here

Makes sense as I have crappy user control switched off as it annoyed me greatly!

Vista Utlimate Connects but refuses access.
This solution worked instantly for us.

We had downloaded the upgrade device driver and the Windoze Vista replacement for ActiveSync... as Vista dictates on first connection.
We got the sound effect acknowledging USB connection, but Windoze Mobile Device Centre obstinately ignored the connection.
We tried the tricks suggested by the mages and sages, like adding ports etc. to the firewall, and deleting the driver in the Vista Device Manager... forcing it to re-install. None of it worked for the Ameos.
We removed the Mobile Device Centre and the upgraded driver, resolving to connect to the Ameos only via our XP Tablet instead.
It seemed that the USB connection was being made, but something else was blocking it.
Then this possible solution (reproduced here) caught our eye.
It was the work of a moment to follow the path and remove the check in that item.
Imagine our surprise and delight when we connected to Windoze Vista Ultimate again... and remember that there is no upgraded driver or Mobile Device Centre installed now... and we got the "what shall I do with this device" dialogue box. We checked the item to open the device in a folder each time and... it did... and does... just that.
We do not need synchronisation for our use of the Ameos since all of the significant email and document traffic occurs on the laptops and Tablet, but we can appreciate why someone would want that Mobile Device Centre to be re-installed. We won't be doing that anytime soon though.
Congratulations to you cayotte, and this forum as a whole.
BTW, I read about the problems folks have with the Microdrive. We have two Ameos. One works great with the Microdrive, the other one does not, and we have to leave it for data files only.
The older unit is the one which works well.
We already had the User Account Control turned off so I cannot say if that had any effect.

Unable to tether Vista to a Mogul running 3.56.651.0

My firm just upgraded my notebook to Vista Enterprise 32-bit (against my wishes!). My Mogul is running the most recent Sprint/HTC-supplied ROM, 3.56.651.0. Under XP, I had no problem tethering using the built-in WM "Internet Sharing" app over USB.
Under Vista, no joy.
I've tried a thousand things. I've downloaded the most recent version of WMDC. After disabling "Enable advanced network functionality" in Connections -> USB to PC, I was able to get WMDC to see the device, xfer files, sync, etc. But still no joy on tethering.
The steps I'm following (that worked on XP):
(1) on the device, I fire up Internet Sharing, select USB, and hit Connect; the phone connects to Sprint's Phone as Modem service (which I'm paying for) fine.
(2) I plug the device into notebook via USB cable
(3) the notebook complains "Windows needs to install driver for your Generic RNDIS" and offers "Locate and install driver software (recommended), "Ask me again later", or "Don't show...". I select "Locate and Install..."
(4) the notebook says it's installing the driver, but then complains:
=======
Windows found driver software for your device but encountered an error while attempting to install it.
Remote NDIS based Internet Sharing Device
A device attached to the system is not functioning.
=======
and then the driver install windows complains:
=======
Device driver software was not successfully installed
Please consult with your device ...
Generic RNDIS Failed
=======
Has anyone gotten _THIS COMBINATION_ (i.e., Vista on the computer, plus a Sprint Mogul running ROM 3.56.651.0) to work? I'm at my wits end.
Thanks!

A quick [non]update, if you're having this problem too... No joy from hours of internet searching and posting on other boards.

my search continues also

i use wmwifirouter to tether via usb/wifi, so i guess you could try that. But i don't think it'll make a difference.
For a while, my vista ultimate wouldn't detect my phone via activesync, i did a repair on it and it fixed. It could probably be the usb driver problems.
I also installed windows 7 to play around, the usb tether worked on that also

I discovered a short while ago that the Media Net was needed in the drop down under Network Connections on the Internet sharing app.

Not sure if ya still looking for a fix but in vista you have to download/install Windows Mobile Device Center then plug your phone and wait for it to detect it. Once the sync is set up disconnect and boot up the internet sharing hit connect then hook up the usb cable. BTW using internet sharing with vista sucks ass cause it randomly connects and disconnects.

I have been using "Wireless Router" for a year and a half now on my XP desktop. It works great, now I have just purchased a laptop w/ Vista Home Premium 64 bit and I get an issue with drivers too.
I have WMDC installed but the system will not recognize my Mogul 6800 as a modem.
If anyone has an idea of were to get the driver or knows any other parameter settings we would appreciate it. I also will update my finds as I search.
BTW, Wireless Modem has a non detection feature if your are interested.

helpp with the Activesync

Hello everyone ...
I buy a HTC HD from a guy who wanted to sell,
I have a problem with cell phone when I connect the USB device already, when I connect the cable the computer recognizes the device but not the color Cync,
I had the same device but I stole it, and the software that remained still like the software is no good reason
Processes that I do:
1) Connect the cable device
2) choose option Activesync
That is, until here he lets me go, sergeant of the data transfer occurs with X (2 arrows with X)
I tried to enter the main menu, then I went to G Wireless LAN, and data transfer, but the problem is that data transfer is on the OFF mode and allows me to change it to ON
I have your help people! You are the only ones who understand,

Man, i really do not understand what you are saying.
If you want someone to help you,we need to understand the problem.
Please be more.... clear.
I understand that you have some problem with active sync.
It would be great to know what operating system you are using.
By the way how did you manage to steal your own device?

Hi ZinGale,
I am also unsure of what exactly the problem is you are facing , but I understand that you have a synchronisation issue and I would like to help you as best as I can.
Please note: ActiveSync is only compatible with Windows XP or earlier. If you run Windows Vista or Windows 7, download Windows Mobile Device Center.
I am going to assume that you are running Windows XP or earlier as you mentioned you use ActiveSync and not Windows Mobile Device Center.
Here is the link for ActiveSync 4.5 (only compatible with Windows XP or earlier editions).
(1) Uninstall ActiveSync and reinstall it on your PC.
(2) Via your phone, check the USB to PC settings. In USB to PC settings, untick the 'Enable faster data transfer' box if ActiveSync does not recognise your device, save changes.
(3) If you are still having problems, check out one of these online troubleshooting guides:
- Microsoft’s ActiveSync troubleshooting guide
- Chris De Herrera’s ActiveSync troubleshooting guide
If you still have the same problem, then please post back here and try to explain your situation again as best you can.
Good luck.

HELP - cannot sync to windows 7 starter

Ive bought a netbook running windows 7 starter, now my hd2 wont connect with windows mobile device center.
I originally set up the pc synch(activesync) with an xp laptop and now it wont connect with the windows 7 netbook.
The phone is telling me to install activesync , but i cant because i have to install the newer windows mobile device center WTF
Ive deleted the old connections on activesync on my phone.
Is there something new to download to my hd2?
Any advice?
Thanks

windows mobile device centre does the same as activesync. it is the new name for activesync used on win 7.
i use the starter edition also on my netbook and cannot get mobile devicecentre installed for some weird reason. probably a problem on my netbook
started using ms myphone for the things i used mobiledevice centre for.

There must be way to connect the phone to a Windows 7 starter netbook.
I plan on doing a hard reset and want to preserve all my bookmarks, and also want to flash a ROM , I'm sure ill need to sync my phone to a computer for that?
The phone keeps telling me to install activesync on my pc even though I have to use wmdc.
When I reinstall wmdc on the netbook I keep getting an error and it won't install properly.
It says device manager not installed, or something like that .
It's a bloody mystery!

for flashing a rom you do not need activesync or mobile device centre. I flash my phone from my laptop without. just put the phone in bootloader and you can flash a rom as normal using the custom ruu. alternatively you can flash from memory card.
think ms myphone can backup that also but you have to check to make sure.

on my sig there is a flashing guide, in it there is a download for win 7 windows mobile device center run it and you should be good to go

this has been discussed so often, if you had taken the time to search there would be no need for that thread!
It so easy, just use windows update to download the driver and windows mobile center and that's it. If it doesn't work you are doing it wrong because it works for everybody else that way!

Leave ytour phone, as the problem appears to be with the netbook. make sure your netbook is not connected to the internet, then disable all the security and see if WMDC recognises your phone.

Thanks for the respones, ill try those tips when I get a chance later in the day.
Apologies for starting a new thread if its been discussed many times before.

Right, i think ive tried everything.
Hard reset my hd2
Uninstalled wmdc
Did every windows update available
re-installed wmdc with webroot antivirus turned off and internet access turned off.
And it still wont recognise the hd2
When its installing the driver on my netbook for the hd2 it keeps getting an error - it says "unidentified device : device unplugged" even though it is plugged in and screen is on.
The phone will connect to my netbook for the disk drive option and the internet sharing option, so i dont think its a problem with the hd2 usb connection
Its a real mystery, anyone out there able to crack this one?

have you tried this?
settings, menu, all settings, connections, USB to PC, uncheck "enable faster data sync", click done.
when I did that, my HD2 finally connected to PC after DAYS of trying!

Yep! I sure have
The computer is just is not seeing my phone with the the activesync option, but it is seeing the phone with both the disk drive and internet sharing options.
When i try un-install wmdc some errors keep popping up, i have to manually go into the task manager and kill 2 .exe active files otherwise it wont uninstall, very strange indeed
Maybe it could be a usb port issue, but i have tried all 3 usb ports on my netbook.

Hi pabloh999,
I potentially have a fix for you. I experienced the same errors as you tried all you have and eventually found a fix - by accident!
Set to airplane mode on & then off. After this my connections & syncs were fine.
Let us know how you go.

Tried that and - nothing!
Its just not recognising my phone, its saying "device unplugged"
I even turned off the charging function when plugged into a pc, just in case that was draining too much juice from the usb port.
No problem solvers out there??

I am thinking now it could be a problem with the usb ports on my netbook.
On one of my million attempts i got a windows error message saying that i should use a high speed usb port, and it gave me a list of "high speed" usb ports on my computer.
I dont know how to use this information because it doesnt physically show which of my 3 usb ports is the "high speed one(s)"
I thought the three of them are the same?
I tried updating the usb drivers to no avail
Fu**ing pissin me off!

Sync with Win 7
Same problem here, Tried everything on the web and on XDA and still cant sync.
Is this a Microsoft Problem, Oh by the way dont agree with d3l1
Ican still sync with my old XP laptop, but my new Win 7 is crap... (Both are Asus machines)
Any pointers would be welome. Ta.

I am having problems connecting to pc...please help??

So i have the LG v20 H-990 (elsa) non rooted phone with Android 7.... Im trying to get it to connect to my pc but it wont work..i have usb drivers and lg drivers 4.2 plus i have lg bridge installed but as soon as i plug phone in...it just starts charging...
So in developer options i saw its set to mtp (media transfer protocol) and i cant cgange it even if i select sometging else it just goes back to mtp... So i tried turning usb debugging on...yet no joy....its not that the PC is not picking up the phone but more like tye phone is not letting connection ....well connect...please help?? I want to try and get some backups going and updates and also play with photos and vids ....please please please help

You have an H990 or an LS997? Also, the phone will charge, even on MTP(which is what it uses to communicate with PC), so you don't have to try to force stop it. Have you gone into device manager or ADB to verify your PC isn't reading the phone?
Sent from my LG-LS997 using Tapatalk

I have the h-990 and yes i have gone to device manager and there is nothing...

I've been having the same problem I couldn't change USB connection type from mtp to charging or ptp etc...what I found is if I try to change it from the developer menu it doesn't want to work, but if I bring down the notifications shade and expand the notification for it and change it with the popup it tends to work most times...I did have one time I couldn't get it to work at all until I factory reset my phone (wiped and reflashed ROM but I'm rooted and rom'd)... Sometimes restarting both phone and PC works...I'm not sure what it is it seems to be different on every PC I hookup to ...oh and sometimes I've toggled USB debugging off then on and that helped....so without several people having the problem and all trying to collect information about types of PC and cables and other individual variables I figured its some kind of glitch or some code error somewhere that under certain circumstances makes the v20 stupid, that likely won't be fixed or solved...this is just my experience , i thought maybe one of the things that seemed to help me might help you....good luck
