WM5 cant connect to AS4.1 - MDA II, XDA II, 2060 Windows Mobile 2005 Upgrading

i just upgraded to the lates WM5 from buzzdev but for some reasons, i cant sync with AS.
i already tried some trouble shooters and firewall solutions, but i still cant sync..
when i connect to the cradle, the partnership window doesnt show up, instead the RETRIEVING SETTINGS windows pops up, and the icon just circles and circles. when i press escape, it still doesnt sync. then after that, AS4.1 hangs.
can anyone give me a solution to this pls..
thanks..

need some help here please.. thanks..

Try de-installing and re-installing AS. If no success, try the AS 4.2 beta upgrade. It is stable enough to work w/o prob.

i already tried other versions of AS 4.1 but failed
where can i get 4.2 beta by the way?
is this the beta upgrade?

thanks..

Yep - that's it.
I needed to upgrade to 4.2Beta to get my Dell Axim X51v WM5 PDA to work correctly.

TyTN II does not sync anymore.

When I plug my TyTN II to my laptop or pc, The active sync icon starts to lookup, but after 1/2 minits i get screen that it was failed to connect. I have this problem since trying WM5Storage. Does someone know how to fix it?? Cause I want to upgrade to dutty's newest rom.
Ps. It does sync with my exchange server but not local with a pc or laptop.
You should check if WM5 Storage is activate (left soft key in the program screen), if yes you should deactivate before connecting with ActiveSync.
I don't know if you have to restart the device, probably yes...
Ciao.
Ensure that usb advance connection tab is unchecked in connection settings,
also you can sync when using wm5torage so you have to disable probably have to restart both computer and device.
If it doesnt work un-install mobile device centre and re-install again, ensure you back up your pims first.
See if it works.
It seems wm5torage mess something up in your connections
let me know if those works
Dear Sir
This is the fastest rom I have ever had in Kasier, whilst the Xt9 did not work but I have deleted it. I noted no issues from the functions I used to use.
Good work!!

There are lots of great rom in the hermes forums, Maybe in he new years I havent got a hermes but I might do one for old time sakes. fingers crossed
I too am having problems sync'ing my Tilt. When I go to uncheck the "advanced network functionalilty" in USB to PC, I get "Failed to disable RNDIS to use Serial"
Please help!
I found an answer after googling "Failed to disable RNDIS to use Serial", where someone mentions a bluetooth COM entry they found and deleted that solved it.
So, I look, find a COM entry from when I was playing with my (old) bluetooth GPS, deleted it, and now I'm able to uncheck the setting.
Now to see if I can finially sync with my PC...
Nope, can't establish a connection with my PC! I'm running Active Sync 4.5 on XP. I tried on Vista, only to learn that wont frigging work either. Any ideas?!

I am also having trouble with Vista...But I am able to have my Tilt Sync on Windows XP. I think I might have an issue just with Vista but it appears that yours may be phone related. Have you tried a hardreset on your device?

Did you find a fix yet?
Nope, I realy don't want to do a hard reset, but might friggin have to.
I was hoping to find another soloution.
I will say this, last time I was able to sync anything, it was my 8525 before I flashed a WM6 ROM, but I know it's not a WM6 - XP compatability issue, others here have no problems. I know Vista has issues, so I'm not even worried about that right now. My Tilt still has the factory ROM, and still others have the same setup with no problems. I can't tell you how mad I'll be if I do a hard reset and it still doesn't work!
Would be nice to be able to copy the pim.vol to/from the memory card and have Outlook be able to import the databases from it.
im having same issue with wm6 ever since flash but wing and mda still sync running wm5 think its some sort of hardware issue havent been able to find anything on it though if you figure it out please post..... by the way i tried hard reset didnt work

Unable to sync using USB...
When I sync using Bluetooth, all is fine & dandy. BUT. When I plug my Tytn II (MDA Vario III) into my USB port, it starts installing a new "Windows Mobile Remote Adapter" (I run Vista, with Vista SP1, BTW). This fails, with a message "The required registry key is missing"? I have tried removing any trace of Windows Mobile Device Center, reinstalling that, installed the MS driver update, no joy. Obviously,Vista being a Microsoft OS, it doesn't tell me WHAT THAT bloody registry key is/is suposed to be!!! Help?

cingular 8125 help

i have a cingular 8125 running on TNT.19199 Series V.2 wm6.1 proffesional edition. i can not connect to my computer through activesync. ive tried to find an answer to my problem in different threads and forums but i cant. now i want to change my rom but i cannot connect through activesync. does anyone have any suggestions. im a newbie at this. Also how do you hard reset. which buttons do you let go of first and do you hard reset when the phone is on or off. i need help asap please. Thank you in advance
now, this seems like a kinda arrogant answer...but have ya tried taking the battery out, then puttin it back in and trying again? And have yah also tried to initiate a sync from the phone? By that I mean by going to programs and hitting the Activesync icon?
yes ive tried both of those things
how about using a different USB port, or re-installing Activesync?
i did that to
well damn, I dunno what to tell ya then.....what about restarting your computer?
yup did that 2
You can use the miniSD card to flash the rom if your 8125 can't connect to your computer.
I had this problem twice awhile back. I had to downgrade to activesync 4.2(still on microsofts website). After I got it to sync I reinstalled activesync 4.5 and everything worked. I wish I new what causes it but this should help. It's not TNT's ROM, it's a great ROM, it's the ROM I always flash back to after I am disappointed with the try the newest release.

ActiveSync with 6.1 ROMs

I have tried a few of the different 6.1 ROMs available for Kaiser.
I am having on recurring problem with ActiveSync though.
My situation ... I have my own laptop at home running Vista business and Office/Outlook 2007 At work I have a laptop running XP with Office/Outlook 2003.
On 6.0 ROMs all was fine. With the 6.1 ROMs, It will not let me sync my phone to both machines (to keep my calendar and contacts in sync) It will let me set up the phone at home, and then sync fine at work, but when I return home, I get a "ActiveSync has encountered a problem on the desktop", the same with me initially setting up at work first. The only solution I have found is to remove the sync pairing on the computer, and then re-set-up the phone with the computer - this hardly being ideal.
Has anyone else experieced the same thing, and/or found a solution to this?
Thanks for any help offered, otherwise I guess I am back to 6.0 ROMs.
Very common solution with syncing is settings->connections->usb to pc, and then uncheck. try that. you would have found this out if you searched first. If this solution doesn't fix it, then must be a unique problem.

Thanks for your help - does seem to be working.
I did search before posting - solutions suggested that I found included deleted sync partnerships, reinstalling office, repair office, deleting pst files ... this solutiuon I did not find.
Well, tried the solution given above - synced fine at home this morning, and at work, but upon returning home the error has returned.

CHeck which USB cable you are using to sync. There was a massive post a while back around the issue of using non-HTC cables. I was also a victim of this. A standard USB cable has to much space around the connector and can cause it to damage the connector on your Kaiser.
I tried all the solutions mentioned and only when I used to HTC cable could I eventually sync.
It didnt completely solve the issue - my laptop has dual boot - vista and XP and I could only get it to sync with XP. Eventually that didnt work either (the connector must have get more damaged) and I had to send it back to HTC for repair.
Interestingly, when it came back I had no problems syncing with either. I have changed no settings and then last night I could not sync again. I unticked the advanced functionality in the USB to PC settings and it fixed it but why did it suddenly start happening? I havent changed any settings.
If you are woried about damage to your USB connector, have a look at the pin at the bottom of you Kaiser and see if it is straight or crooked.
I also think its a really bad idea that they put the soft reset button so close to the USB connection - how many of you have accidentally pushed the stylus into the connector when trying to soft reset your device? I have a few times and I'm sure this didnt help.
The answers arent always straight forward and its really pathetic to keep bashing people with READ THE WIKI and SEARCH THE THREAD when it is a genuine question requiring thought and support.
Better not to post at all than just to attack someone and waste everyones valuable time and take up room on a thread.
Well, having gone back to 6.0 ROMs, syncing between my Kaiser and my home and office computers is working again.
So, will stuck with 6.0 until some more official 6.1 ROMs are released I guess.
It's working for me

I'm not sure what's wrong with your computer but it's not a WM 6.1 problem. Since I started testing new ROMs, I've connected my TyTN II to 3 different computers, using 2 USB-MiniUSB cables (none the HTC supplied one), 2 computers had Windows XP, one had Vista. It was detected and configured by Activesync or WMDC every single time.
I have tried Dutty's, Sleuth, UDK, NoThrills, L26, MobileVista... It worked every single time on 3 different computers.
I don't know either, but moving back to 6.0 ROMs has made the problem disappear. I tried a number of 6.1 ROMs and they all gave the error of not wanting to sync to more than one computer - they would pair up fine, but on syncing would throw up errors and not sync, for example would be set up fine at home and synced, then go to the office set up and syn fine, but on return home wouldn't want to play anymore.
I just hope when official releases of 6.1 come out that they will work properly.
Ok this has worked for some with sync issues. Give it a try.
With Phone diconnected from computer:
Delete partnerships on Device and on computer.
(On Phone)open regedit and go to HKLM/ident
edit Name to HTC-8900 (for tilt) or HTC-TYTN_II (for kaiser)
edit OrigName to HTC-8900 (for tilt) or HTC-TYTN_II (for kaiser)
Power Off (not reset) and wait 30 sec then repower
(on Computer)Go into task manager and close wmdc.exe
go to your computers control panel and open sync center (same icon as old activesync)
Open WMDC
Plug Phone in via USB
Once it starts be sure to name partnership the same as your device ID
Please post if it works. If not there have been a few other methods that may work.
NOTE: if you switch between vista and xp, activesync has a random tendancy to overwrite the device name to something like windowsmobile72 which messes up the sync with WMDC. Changing the device name ussually fixes this issue if it occurs.

Windows 7

Hi

I'm using Windows 7 on my desktop sand sync works fine.

U should download "windows mobile device center" from Microsoft.
WMDC keeps returning an error
I installed W7 last night, and WMDC is really the only thing that I haven't got working yet. Each time I plug in my Tilt, I get the spinning circle, and then a message the WMDC has stopped working. I've rebooted twice. I'm going to do some more checking after work, but I was dissappointed when it didn't work. Beta is beta, I guess. I sent the reports.
maybe it depends on the built
i'm using 7000 and it works great.

Turn your computer on with your device already connected. When I didn't do that, sometimes my computer gave that message you mentioned or my laptop froze all together.
Uninsatalled WMDC, and then reinstalled
Now it's good to go. I hope WMDC is more reliable under 7 than it was under Vista. It only recognized my phone about half of the time.
Just remove WMDC6.1 and reinstall it.
Windows 7 is MUCH better than Vista. there isn't even a basis for comparison.
i thought that 7 was using device stage to handle all of the stuff for peripheral syncing?? or is WMDC still going to be the only way?
Windows update
Manually run Windows Update when the phone is connected via a USB Cable.
Might work, it did for me under Vista, the only thing that got WMDC 6.1 working properly, even over BT.
Cheers

Hi I am setting up Windows 7, can someone please confirm that you still need WMDC 6.1 and not the 'add device / printer'?
Many thanks, Windows 7 is rocking at the moment!

It's worked for me with a Wizard + Elf(in) (Touch and O2XDA Mini S)
I have a G1 now and it's only ever worked on an older build of 7. Microsoft must hate it being linux and all
I can get it to work with my Diamond without any problems at all.
But, it will not connect to my Sammy i200, I have narrowed it down to not showing as a WM device in Device Manager as far, all deleting Temp files, checking Outlook etc. still trying...
I had to un-install and re-instal WMDC (I downloaded again from MS).
I also had problems running RUU on W7 but updating the driver (to the older one!) fixed that.
W7 does seem better than Vista in just about every way - and it's a Beta!
Love it
Its now driving me mad. Why after all these years is WMDC such a pile of crap?
It won't recognise either i200 or the Diamond now. Drivers seem OK, but I get 'Error'. Unistalled again, installed again, now it hangs on 'Please wait while WMDC starts'.
Plug devices in my PC with Vista, both phones start straight away!
On windows 7, when I plug in My mobiler fires up no probs, Tomtom Homes fires up, recognises and updates no probs. Try to sync with microsoft useless!
Edit:OMG, how simple was that!
Unticked 'Enable advanced Network' in Connections USB to PC, and voila job done, sync both phones no problem at all!
happy chappy.....

HD2 Sync

I've d/l 4.5 into my PC but I can't sync into my HD2. OK in my house I can only wi-fi data , I have to go outside to make phone calls on network. When I go to active-sync it sends me to MS like I'm on the PC & it gives me the interpretation to d/l 4.5 into the HD2. What the heck am I missing? Help!
Pls. Someone point me in the right direction,so I can sync my HD2 to my PC ,pls. Thanks ahead of time.
Okay, try uninstalling activsync. Re-download and re-install Activsync (remember for XP only, Vista and Seven get WM Device Center) then go through the setup. Plug in your HD2 via USB it should connect. Then, press the syn button at the top right corner I believe. It's been a while since I've used it since i'm now using Android but I believe it should still be the same!
Sorry for being late (sleep) Thank You that worked. It's been awhile & I thought I thought I overlooked something but it's good to know windows still works the same. If I didn't get this phone for a penny I'd be working with something else. Again Thank You.
