Hello,
I am beta testing Windows Vista Build 5342.
Has anyone managed to sync their device with Vista yet ?
I tried launching the ActiveSync 4.1 setup but it doesnt run.
I have a Wizard.
Thank you
seems as if vista will not use activesync at all

Ya thank you I know that. But it doesn't seem to be installed on that latest build.
Anyone has any ideas?
I'm planning to buy a qtek s200.
Did anyone tryed to upgrade the rom using vista - i've read that active sync won't work with Vista.
In my opinion "Vista" do not require Activesync as it has some builtin system.

it does not work,use the shearch funtion in the forum,there is allredy several threads asking the same thing.
Only on Vista 32 bit imho...
The upgrade software does not work correctly with any version of Vista, so if you want to brick your device try it
Vista has a new Mobile Device Center that replaces activesync. Don't try to upgarde with Vista. I maintain an old notebook as spare running XP just for flashing purposes. Or install XP on a different partition and flash from there.
Dear All
I have a very strange problem here...i was using the Jwright WM6 rom till this morning with no sccuess in getting it to connect to my Vista laptop by all means...the only thing i could do is to connect to my desktop pc which has Windows XP & it connects succefully...so i thaught it's something related to the crossbow not being compatible with vista WMDC
Till this morning a friend came to me with his Universal running Jwright 1.90.96 WM5 to install a program so i connected to the Vista WMDC & it worked like a charm...so i downgraded mine to the same WM5 version he is running & i was shocked when it didn't connect & kept trying to connect till it gave me red error sign with no explanation
I used the same USB port, the same original cable on the same laptop under the same windows user...
Any explanation for that????!!!
I really need to sync with my vista laptop as it's my main PC at both work & home...
Thanks All
Have you updated WMDC from beta3, coz that has sorted alot of problems.If yes, try creating another user account, or try logging in as an admin, and connect wm device from there.
otherwise, REINSTALL VISTA, sorry to tell you that, but this is the easiest and the quickest way some times. and i mean it...
What kind of built of Vista are you running?

i have updated to the latest WMDC version available on the microsoft site after removing the one that originally came with the windows as instructed by microsoft...i also tried creating another admin account & still no success !!!
this morning i tried to remove & reinstall the WMDC but still nothing changed..i hope that i won't be forced to reinstall Vista again as this is a very painful option to me after the mass amount of programs i have installed!!!

i'm using windows vista ultimate 6.6.6000 build 6000
I used to have this working at the beginning of the month, using RUU 2.01 + WMDC 6.1 x64 Driver.
All of sudden it does not work anymore.
Tried all other RUU versions (2.03, 3.xx), no help.
Anyone with good luck please give me some hint!
Thanks a lot!
i had issues with digital signed drivers even if i turned digital signature check off during boot and so i chose a different path for flashin my phone. i installed VMware workstation. Its a program that creates a virtual machine withing windows within which u can install XP. So basically i have XP running within Vista through a virtual machine. another suggestion is dual boot vista and XP. search in google on how to do this and you will find instrucations. good luck.

though its for another device, but the steps are same for all the devices

for those who "own" the retail final version of windows 7, when u try to run CustomRUU.exe or RadioRaphael.exe youll get an error either the 0xc00007b or something random that wont run the program, already tried to run it in compatibility mode but theres no go, its a compatibility issue with the program, i even tried running it in admin mode and nothing, troubleshooter says its not compatible, best thing to do is if u have a backup laptop or pc with XP, vista or any of the beta RC1 builds for windows 7 is to run it from there, until then hopefully someone will get a fix for this, this is just a little heads up for anyone that has the retail windows 7...
if u dont have this issue on win7 retail plz let us know, and also for those who knows a fix for it, would be great...
here are one of the fixes thanks to gmanfuzing and jtantley

its got nothing to do with your OP , it has to do with the fact that when you unrar this version its all wonky with %20 all in the name , remove the %20's or just unrar it to an actually folder or just flash from your sd card (sd card flash is highly recomended)

Just change the name of the folder. I had the same problem, something about the long time with the spaces screws it up.

By the way, heres a picture of the error if u ever do come across it...
I have had no issues with Windows 7 and flashing Roms. Thanks for the fixes to your particular issue though.

just rename the folder to something short and sweet...
yes i had that problem before once and it was a 30 second fix... but at least this is good for other people for reference.

confirmed to try the fix and theres no go, im guessing it has to do with ur build version of Win7? because i rename the folder to a short name (EX: ROM) and i still get the error btw Win7 version build is 7600...
The only real fix
The only fix for this is to use a newer build or the full release of windows 7. I got the full retail version from Microsoft (I am certified so I get it early). It fixed my issues with this. So I would suggest wait a month buy the full version and you will be good to go.

ermm i do have the retail version of Win7, clearly 7600 IS the final version and is the OEM....
I have had no problems flashing from 7100.
I thought Windows 7 came out 10/22/2009...So how do you guys have it?
i've got the RTM of Win7 and have an issue where the app will run and get my device to enter bootloader, but then it will not progress beyond 0%. anyone have similar issues? i had no problems for months on vista, so i'm betting the folder path length isn't the issue.

MSDNAA access through IEEE (i am a college student, unlike the rest of the people who pretend)... $15, got 10 Windows 7 Pro RTM (7600) keys... used/gave away 3, still have 7 left
best deal ever
// though you're supposed to only use MSDNAA for educational purposes and no commerical... think that applies to my current situation, so nothing wrong here
flashing CustomRUU through Win7 RC had no problems, haven't had the time to flash the latest EnergyROM on my W7 Pro RTM, maybe in a few weeks time when i'm not that busy
lol i'm an Uni student and i get the license free from MSDN lol
of course, there're custom versions out in forums if u know what i'm talking about, and it's amazing, Windows 7 is actually heck a lot better than Vista & XP combined, and i use a lot of custom XP and it's just amazing, no lag whatsoever, and my laptop sucks so it's a good thing.
