Greetings every one
I have searched through the threads to try and find a solution to my problem and I have tried hard and soft restart on Snapvu, F2 and F3 but nothing works
I am having a little trouble with my Shift 9500 running Vista. All was well until about a week ago when I lost WLAN. When I attempted to turn on WLAN in the SHAG Control, SHAG control freezes and vista tells me that the "program is not responding". Sound is also muted.
I do, however, have a network symbol in the notification area that tells me it is not connected, when I ask vista to diagnose the problem it tells me to install a network card and the software. So, I reinstall the Marvell Wi-Fi driver, downloaded from the HTC website, but still no effect and the same thing keeps happening.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
I have the same problem now. Got original preinstalled Vista and even after Hard reset WLAN seems to be turned on in Control Center but the WLAN card is not even seen on hardware list. Got latest Marvell driver installed. It's rather not hardware problem as WLAN used to work before hard reset. Maybe it has to do with Microsoft hot fixes (have automatic updates enabled) but run without SP1. It's driving me crazy when trying to enable WLAN or Bluetooth it takes minutes like you. Any ideas plase? Thanks

Well just an update, I did hard Vista reset and it helped. got fully functional wlan device, but still don't know what caused that. basically i see preinstalled vista here is damn unstable and never seen so many blue screens before :/

I just posted a message earlier about issues I've been having with WiFi now resolved by changing advanced settings in the chip set. Maybe of some use? If you can't even see the Marvell maybe the only choice IS to do a hard restore, or maybe even trying the copying of the sdbus.sys from the XP page into system32/driver and trying again...that's probably what I would do.
I must admit, most of my issues with WiFI started when I updated to the new driver from HTC....downhill from there.
And note their instructions don't tell you in which order to install the WiFi driver - yet all the others are very specific. Maybe that's where it all goes horribly wrong? I did mine last for reference.

I'd suggest if everything works fine then no need to upgrade and take this risk... i simply ignored new htc drivers )
Hey Fooftr )
How are you? Managed to overwhelm this damn WLAN? I was happy too early. Even though my automatic MS updates were disabled after hard reset and I haven't even touched new htc drivers, my WLAN dissapeared again under Vista after some time.
Have installed latest Marvell sd8686.sys drivers from htc and the only result I got is 'Device manager' indicates WLAN card drivers where loaded but device cannot start (Code: 10). Did simple uninstall and even after reboot Vista finds no WLAN device at all. Did same with SD Host and here it's finem Vista finds it and reinstalls drivers. I'm still patient as really like this ****, I mean shift )
I've also replace sdbus.sys (81KB) file with mine laptop one 87KB but no difference.
The only networking actions I've been doing were related to installation of NDIS drivers together with the first WinMo sync. Maybe this is it? Don't know and wouldn't like to hard reset it again. Also XP is not an option until touchscreen and sdhc support is solved.
Guys any thoughts? Ideas? Does anyone have the same problem with vanishing WLAN device? Again it works after hard reset so it's not a hardware prob imo.
Cheers Shifters ;o)
Silence means either I'm alone with the problem or there are others but no solution found
I did some progress yesterday and GOT MY WLAN working fine now. I've been trying to play with HTC Marvell driver folders content as despite of WLAN setup file there are other toolkits attached by HTC. IT's not ideal and does enable WIFI fine but enables BT as well however BT device cannot find any other devices - later down below about BT.
PLS READ THIS FIRST BEFORE YOU TRY, it's just my observation and may be only my case.
If you guys have the same experience with WLAN device as I do please try to do following, it helped in my case and now have all WLAN and BT enabled and visible in Vista SP1 after sleep/restart, whatever.
1. My Vista config is as follows:
- SP1 installed (eng)
- all updates installed from Microsoft Update
- all HTC drivers installed except Vitakey which I hear on other threads is causing some headaches.
* although I have all above installed I don;t think it;s a prerequisite. You only need latest Marvell drivers from HTC website.
2. Pls note, although latest Marvell WLAN drivers are installed I used to see no devices.
3. I've described what is a behaviour when I install drivers, devices appear for a few seconds on the list and dissapear at the end of installation.
4. So I went to WLAN folder /Wifidrvpatch/TOOLKITS and found HTCMEDIA.INI file with number of commands.
5. At the end of the file you can find three commands related to ECTKit.exe and vcpj_TSinstall.exe
6. What I did yesterday what enabled my devices? Started to launch them to see what will happen.
I launched three application but I'm not sure which one helped, my devices started to apeparing on th list after ECTKit.exe with one of parameters added.
7. Launch Device Manager and expand Network adapters. Right click on desktop 'My computer' and choose 'Manage'. From the list then choose 'Device Manager'. IF you don't see NEtwork adapters on the list it's probably same as in my case. go to next step.
8. Click Start->Run->cmd
change your path (using 'cd' command) to be in marvellwifi/wifidrvpatch/toolkits/tool where ECTKit.exe is located.
Launch ECTKit.exe by typing ECTKit.exe /EnableAllDevice
after that my devices appeared on the list.
As I said I launched three execs this evening. First was vcpj_TSinstall.exe (then clicked on install) but haven't noticed any change, dvices were hidden and shift was not much busy with this exec. Second I launched ECTKit.exe /RestoreAllDevice (Still no devices on the list BUT I've noticed Computer Management tool (the one you've opened to see devices) has indicated under 'System Tools->'EVent Viewer' -> 'Windows Logs' -> 'Security' that one of sys files is not loaded due to hash issue. IT's called CCDEVIO.sys and used to fail EVERYTIME when I tried to install MArvell drivers before (have checked logs history).
As the third command launched was ECTKit.exe /EnableAllDevice and this one helped.
What I suspect in my case CCDEVIO.sys may be causing problems but not sure. For example this sys file is trying to be loaded when I open WindowsMediaPlayer and fails as well so I'm not sure. Anyway that's the only misbehaviour I've noticed related to drivers installation.
Now about BT. It's also enabled. Got access to all functions, etc but there are two problems with BT.
1. My shift cannot find any other BT devices but can be found by my HTC Kaiser with no problems (still with limited number of services shared).
2. BT blue LED under the display flashes all the time now ) Well even if I disable BT Radio device and other BT related it does still blinks ) Well I don;t care anyway at least got it visible and can play further to force it to work. It';s still better than not having it at all.
LAst but not least this trick has not helped to frozen Shift Control Center tool. It freezes if I want to Turn ON/OFF WIFI/BT for coupel of minutes, then indicated device is ON or OFF, I can close it but it does not communicate with devices at all - meaning if I turn my WLAN ON thru control center it's not turning ON. Need to go to Network Adapters window under NEtwork Sharing Center and simply enable it. It's till fine as shagctrl sucks anyway, no brightness can be adjusted and when I try to access Settings, after 10-20 seconds got message 'Get EC firmware version failed' and settings opens (this error was observed even after my Vist agot hard reset some time ago and even after I installed latest EC drivers from HTC site)...
I'm not sure how HTC tests their drivers in testing environment but they probably outsource it to well known business oriented countries )
Sorry for long story but maybe it will help some of you. I'm damn happy got my WIFI working as do not need BT for now

Hello,
I have a similar issue withe Marvell Wifi adapter.
I restored the system to the manufacturer settings pressing F3 while booting and the problem remains:
If the Shift is powered off or hybernated more than 30 minutes and then powered on, then Wifi works well, the adapter appears in the device manager, and I can power it on or off with HTC comunication administrator (the progran which opens when you push the upper right button).
If, whith Wifi working, I suspend, reboot or power off the shift for less than 30 minutes, the Marvel wifi adaptor dissapears from the device manager, Wifi doesn't work and I can't enable or disable it from the HTC comunication administrator.
I have restored the system to manufacturer settings pressing the F3 button while booting for three times without success.
Anybody knows how to fix that problem or may I send the unit to the SAT?
Thank you very much

Hey, seems it's very unstable. Can you imagine I was to early happy with my findings :/ My WIFI appears and dissapears randomly but the behaviour is a bit different from yours. Mine is available even right after reboot (pess than 30 mins). What I do to solve it is when after turning on there is no device on the list I simply launch drivers installation and do not wait till the end. When I see BT/WIFI devices in Computer Management successfully identified (installation still runs) I simply kill the installer thru "Task Manager" without waiting for completion (as every time after completion devices again dissapear). With that I have a control over WIFI. It's a bit annoying but I can rely on that everytime so far.
Keep observing my shift behaviour what potentialy can impact that and even with WinMo synced and 3G working on WinMo side WIFI is still available. Last time it dissapeared after battery removal for 5 minutes max (to insert new SIM card).
BTW, once you have your BT available can you find external devices using BT built-in software? I cannot...
Even with that I damn like the SHIFT and find it very useful.
Will stay in touch
Hey
I've noticed a few people with this issue however they have been using different devices/computer setups therefore I wanted to see if anyone knew how to solve my issue.
I recently got a HTC 7 Trophy and love it, however I am dying to try out this wireless sync feature but it never seems to trigger and show up in zune as connected.
My Setup:
HTC 7 Trophy sitting on charge on one side of my room, connected to my wireless
Lenovo S10e Netbook running Windows 7 Ultimate with Microsoft Security Essentials AntiVirus
Netgear DGN2000 with WPA2-PSK encryption
when i wake my phone from sleep, the wireless is still connected but it has never shown up in zune. (yes I have setup wireless sync in zune and it successfully completed without errors)
what happened for me...
it specifies when setting up wireless sync that you need to have your phone connected to charger (not usb power from computer)for 10 minutes then wireless sync will start.
it took a good 25 minutes for me and then i noticed a driver being installed into windows 7. Zune then proceeded to being wirelessly syncing..
under device manager i've found
Portable Devices / LEO70 (its my hd2 running wp7)
under properties- device description - Value=Zune Wireless
hope this enlightens something
thanks! I'll leave my phone on charge for the whole day and check device manager every 30 minutes or so, now I just have to figure out why my phone isn't connecting to my home WiFi anymore
UPDATE: Still nothing, the phone has been on the network and charging all day without any drop outs and still not showing in zune, I have restarted my laptop once during the day because of windows updates but still nothing. I will try turning off windows firewall next to see if that is the problem.
UPDATE 2: It installed the driver, once, when I awoke the laptop from sleep with zune already running. I found another 'solution' that involves enabling some services from services.msc and turning off windows firewall with no success. really wish someone had the same problem as me :/

to be honest, i dont see the point... during wireless sync, it has to be powered via AC adapter - disconnect power, and wireless sync stops...(now what sort of 'wireless' is that)
I know some users have docking stations but still it comes down to ...
*sync via USB - fast sync slow charge.
*sync wireless - slow sync fast charge.
You cant roam in your wireless environment and sync...
Hello guys,
I bought a ZTE AXON 7 A2017G and wanted to use it as personal hotspot on my PC via USB. The interface MUI of this phone is not so good not intuitive and when I switch the USB Tethering supposed to do just that it's bringing a screen of how I want to connect by USB and not working to share the 4G connection to my PC. I tried all options to ‘only charge’ to ‘MTP’ etc. I use Windows 10 64bits, already installed the driver from the phone and I tried many solutions like changing the network adapter driver from device manager to RDNIS 6 or ZTE RDNIS ect. But it still doesn't work actually it does stuck the UI screens related to network when I connect the phone.
Anyone has a solution to make this work without rooting the phone? I still have a warranty so I don't want to root it while I still have it.
Thanks !

You don't lose the warranty automatically by unlocking. They have no way to know if you relocked it before sending it in (and even if you send it unlocked, there's an EU law that says that they have to prove that the software modification caused the problem). Broken screens aren't caused by LineageOS afaik...
Okay, back to the topic at hand: I have a Win10 x64 PC. I connected the USB cable to the PC, then to the phone, then went to the settings and enabled USB tethering. After a second the PC asked me if I wanted to connect to a new network. So there's definitely something wrong on your side.
After you hit tbe USB tethering option don't touch the connection options that appear (the MTP, PTP, install driver stuff), just leave them as-is
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
I work for my company's IT department, and was recently tasked with factory resetting two SM-T510 tablets. The problem is that I cannot access developer settings because of the device policy. I believe their device policy still thinks it is being governed by my company's Microsoft Endpoint Manager/Intune environment through a configuration policy. However, that policy has been deleted and so have these devices from Endpoint. So, it seems to me to be a catch-22 where the devices thinks they're being governed by a security policy that no longer exists, and I have so far been unable to get the devices to recognize this fact.
I have tried booting into download mode, but without USB debugging being enabled, I (seemingly) wasn't able to do anything. Microsoft Company Portal is installed and I can log into it, but there is limited functionality since the device is no longer enrolled in Endpoint/Intune. I also do not have permission to uninstall Company Portal. I can't disable device policy from being a device administrator: the option is simply blanked out.
The build number for one of the devices is PPR1.180610.011.T510XXU1ASEF. I imagine it's the same for the other.
Again, all I want to do is factory reset the devices so I'm cool with any method to get me there.
