Help my phone is not syncing with any of the wm6

Like the topic says my phone will not sync with my computer after I flashed wm6. I am using active sync 4.5, and I am running windows XP. My computer is 4 years old, is it because I am not running Microsoft office 07? Any help on this would be much appreciated. Thanks in advanced, and sorry if this is a dumb question.

Happened to me before. Follow these steps.
1. Remove active sync form your computer. Make sure the directory is deleted from its install point.
2. Reboot the sucker
3. Reinstall active sync
4. Restart your device (phone)
5. Connect sync cable
6. Put phone in bootloader mode and reflash
Hope this helps. Post your results.

Easier solution:
-try disabling enhanced communication in settings/ connections/usb connections

[Q] adb error using shift root and recovery

Help! When I try to root my evo shift with gui shift root and recovery all I get is an adb error message. I have installed htc sync on my laptop. I also cannot connect to sync. These problems may be related? I am running windows vista.

sounds like the drivers may not have installed... Where did you get the version of sync you installed? You're best bet is to use the one off the sdcard. I've had an occasion or two also where things got messed up, and I uninstalled it all and reinstalled. (under programs and features you'll find HTC sync and driver installer, remove both and reinstall if necessary)

I installed it off the sd card and have did the install/ uninstall at least 5 times. still no luck.

i had same error but i just did mine maually. theres a video now for manually rotting it. if you fllow the steps you will root your shift

I'm in the same boat no matter what I do it my shift won't connect to sync and when I run adb devices it kicks a blank line then right back to platform-tools I'm running Vista myself and messed with it for hours and no luck I'm mad because I have rooted my shifts already and don't know what went wrong with the drivers sync or my pc this sucks as I need to be able to adb to help test some things

You do have adb debugging on right... the only other thing I could think of.

Yes I do have debugging on.

have you tried getting sync from htc's website to be sure?

If I'm correct the old version of syn from sprints website was giving me problems loading the drivers. I used the newest version from htc website and voila I was good to go. U may want to try that. I just re rooted earlier use the gui and it worked like a charm

I have the sync from htc website. I still get error running adb try again. Ive used the same usb cord and ports with my archos pad and have no trouble transfering files.

What exactly does the error message say? And with what command?

Maybe it's your sdk that is messed up... Maybe try downloading and installing again.

Ive got temp root now with visionary. And have it set to reroot when i turn my phone off/on. I have wireless tether (non adhoc) which is what I was wanting to tether my archos 101. I still can't connect to sync. Wondering if its a vistas issue?

I dunno what the other guys error is but I know on mine if I go to device manager there is an error code 37 with my HTC on my Vista pc.....I can cd to my c:\Android\Android-sdk\platform-tools
But when I hit add devices it kicks back and empty line after it starts the Damon on whatever then right back out to platform tools...it does the same thing with every sync I install, plus my phone can't find sync on my pc at all even if its open...and help would be really appreciated

I'm having the "error running adb try again" problem as well. Unfortunately when I try to run adb from the cmd prompt its output goes to a popup cmd prompt window which disappears before I can read it. My guess however is that it's blank like yours.
I'm convinced I've done everything they way I'm supposed to. Has anyone yet gotten the htc drivers to work under vista?

I had this same issue with ADB..all I did was, while connected via usb, uncheck debugging and then recheck. Clicked root again and it worked.

Sigh, there was a adb update. Install the new version from the sdk, delete the one in shiftrr, copy the new one in, close adb with task manager, then run as you were trying to do before. That fixed it for me.
And make sure when you install the recovery, not to use the one it comes with, it doesn't support the newer roms we have on the shift now. If you want to flash current ones, use clockwork 5.0.2.0, our twrp (recommended)

Phone to PC association question

Right guys,
I'm replacing the Hard drive on my PC since it's dying / riddled with rubbish. It will be a completely new install of windows with no previous data available.
Do i need to do anything with my phone since it is currently linked to the Zune install on my current dying hard drive?
Or when i re-install zune on the new hard drive and plug in my phone will it associate itself with that install fine and let me sync files ok?
Thanks,

I dont know hwo to backup, but you will need to. If you dont then you will loose your restore, and it will idetifiy it as a new computer.

I'm not too fussed about losing the restore point. I will be keeping the HDD so if the worst was to happen I could always dig it out.
I was just curious if i needed to tell my current Zune install to forget my phone before switching to my new drive. I guess it's not necessary as the new install should give me the option to either connect as a guest or re-assign my phone to recognise that as the master account/install?
Thanks

It will sync just fine broke my laptop and when I synced to my new one it worked fine. Only thing that jammed me up for a few days was whenni installed windows phone developer tools I installed the latest one and I couldn't sideload anything. Was because I needed to install the one that wasn't for the mango update. Makes sense now that I look back on it.

I don't think this answers the question. I too would like to know if I can get Zune to forget apps - or is this different in Mango already?

but, alas, it is currently the only way. There is currently no delete app history function. If you don't want a program to auto install after you hard reset, make sure you install it OTA and not through ZUNE on your PC. It is my understanding that only those installed through ZUNE on your PC will auto install after a hard reset.

U can try setting from zune software, phone => sync option (device options) => erase all content (becarefull) or foget this phone

Reverse tethering now made simple!

This is for those who want to connect to internet using pc without wifi!!!

Search the market for "reverse tether"!!! (SORRY THIS IS MY 1st POST.SO I CANT PROVIDE LINKS)
Just follow the instructions wich should really work.

problem is all cm7 for my mobile have usb tether bug .. and the app doesn't work with wired tether app ;(
I download and try all cm7 2day after read tht post
I hope to find fix for the bug soon

When you say without wifi. Do you mean the PC and phone don't have wifi working radios? Because if they do and you have a wired internet connection just use connectify. It's free and works great. I may have misunderstood the purpose of the thread though.

After reviewing the app I guess I don't see my personal usefulness in such an app unless either the PC or phone don't have functioning wifi radios. Which I could see in a desktop. I do however see the usefulness on connecting to a PC to use it's internet. Clearly this app is for others that do require this function.

but there are some people without wifi hosting powered desktop...it'z for them!!

I'm starting to think is my celphone model, I waited for the "legal" hour and nope, I changed the hour on my pc, and nothing T-T, and it's rooted and so. But as I said, maybe is my cel, galaxy ACE with gingerbread 2.3.4

There's no need to download it from me*fire since a tusted and up-to-date APK file is available for download right from the developer's website.

SE xperia arc s here, ics ice lite, NO WAY: time limit always on
edit: able to start program but not to establish connection

Will this enable me to get internet on my Kindle Fire through my cell phone 3G tetherd via USB?
Thanks

problem
I upgraded to the latest one today and it seemed to start working. After running the program (I had it set to control 3g....or make apps work as if it saw 3g), it won't let me connect to v* with networking. Voice and sms works fine, but the 3g/1x doesn't work at all.
I'm going to try to restore from a backup and see what happens. Anybody have any ideas?
---------- Post added at 01:59 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:47 AM ----------
Not sure what happened, but I restored from a clockworkmod recovery backup I did earlier today (before I used reverse tether). Luckily, this seemed to get my network connection (3g/1x) back.
Reverse Tether is a great idea and it's really something I need, but I'm a little leery about using it now since it messed my 3g connection up.

Not working..
Hello..
It only worked for one time but now whenever i try to connect it says "cant establish a connection, please make sure that your internet is shared"
my internet connection is shared, remote NDIS usb driver is also installed ..
Plz help me..
