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
OK, a search on this gave me everything so I have to start this thread asking for a copy of the Getting Started CD. Sorry if it's already been discussed.
I can't get my pda to sync via usb. I deselect the "Enable advanced network functionality" and it still doesn't connect. Can someone post it or does anyone know where I can download one online? I'm hoping it has the correct drivers (Vista 64).
For vista you don't need the getting started CD... only the Windows Mobile Device center installed... also after the initial connection the Windows update should download it autimatically.

That's what all the instructions seem to say. I've uninstalled the existing devices, connected, installed, disconnect, uninstalled the device, install, etc and I still cannot get my pda to connect via usb. Can't seem to figure it out.
Check if activesync (on the PDA) connection settings... It should be set to connect via USB... Also you can download the WMDC from the M$ site...

Yeap, did them both. To get USB as a cradle connection option in ActiveSync in the PDA, I have to select the "Enable advanced network functionality". However, if I do this, I cannot make a connection. I remember when I had my HTC TC, I had to deselect the "Enable advanced network functionality" in order to sync via USB. But when you do this, you don't get the option to sync via USB when cradled.
I think I'm missing the USB modem driver. I'm found the zip file but I'm still looking for installation instructions.
And I think you should reinstall your OS, because there are some serious issues on your side...

OS meaning PDA OS? I did that 3 times, twice with cooked WM6.1 and once back to WM2003. I was able to establish connection with my factory WM2003.
nah... I ment the Vista (did I mention a hard reset anywhere?)... in my school, we have several verisons (ultimate, business,...), i386, x64 alike and we didn't have any problems like the one you described...
Worth a try...
Try download and manually (instead of through Windows Update) the Windows Mobile Device Center v6.1 update for x64 versions of Vista.

Yeap, did that too. Thanks though, it's appreciated.
I wonder if it's my firewall settings. Time to explore that option. I remember the old ActiveSync sometimes required manual fixes to the firewall.
Guys - I'm going to end this thread because I guess the thread title doesn't accurately identifies my issue and I don't want to double post elsewhere.
Hi guys,
I've just installed the Windows 7 ultimate RC on my PC and am now unable to sync my Raphael. I've installed Windows Mobile Device Center, but when I plug in my phone I get a message saying 'USB Device not recognized'.
I've tried both the stock rom and the Energy 3.0 ROM.
Anyone experiencing this also? Any solutions?
Thanks!
Same problem. But I couldnt even install the WDC? Which version did you install?
Weird
I'm using Windows 7 RC 1 (build 7100) and it works flawlessly with my TP. Installed WMDC 6.1 without difficulties.
PROBLEM FIXED for me

Try deleting this via regedit
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\SQMClient\Windows\DisabledSessions
I'm using Windows 7 build 7077 and everything is going fine
Could you specify as to whether that key is located in Windows 7 or your phones OS?

Sorry.In Windows 7
uh oh. i'm thinking of wiping vista from my machine and just using rc1. should i hold off on doing this?
Happened to me not 5min ago
1. Find the device in “Device manager” and remove it
2. Re-Plug in the device
3. A windows should try to install the software (Little popup in the task bar)
4. Click on it when it fails and tell it to check windows update to find drivers
I just installed RC1 last night. TP syncing just fine.
running windows 7...wmdc installed fine...
IF YOU ARE HAVING PROBLEMS SYNCHING!!
make sure to go into your phone settings
-go to connections
-go to usb to pc
-uncheck enable advanced network functionality
k thanks for the help guys, can't wait to get rc installed!
Thanks for the replies!
I tried all suggestions posted here, but none work.
The funny thing is that even when I put my phone in USB Drive mode, it still isn't recognized.
Updating the driver through windows update still results in 'An unknown device, your drivers are up to date'.
Syncing works without problems on my WindowsXP laptop..

This really worded for me. I installed Windows 7 the first day it was available and I was never able to figure it out how to make it worked until today. Thank you "The Muffin Man"
Running windows 7 RC and first few days when plugged phone in nothing happened. Was in no rush to get sync working as dual booting with Vista and was just plugging to charge phone. Other day I got a prompt to install device centre 6.1 and never done anything to initiate this. Wonder if an auto update may have caused this?
Works perfectly for me and tried with both Energy 3.0 and Elite RC4 (WM6.1 and WM6.5 ROMS).
In Vista atm so don't have W7 build number to hand.
I had a similar issue a few weeks back on my xp rig. Turns out I just needed to re seat my micro sd card, worked instantly.

go for it.. everything works great.. love the device support! plug in ur printer and thats pritty much it
Uninstall the "Windows Mobile Device Center" in your Control Panel, and plug your phone in again
Well i'm one step closer to fixing this..
I went into my bios and disabled USB2 (switching back to USB1).
After reboot my device was recognized and synced without problems.
As soon as I enabled USB2 again the device was undetectable again, even though Legacy USB support was enabled.
All other USB devices work, both in USB2 as USB1 mode.
Needless to say I don't want to run in USB1 mode.
Since I didn't have any of these problems with WinXP I assume it's a windows 7 issue.. Anyone knows where I can report this?

Sounds like a driver support issue with your USB device (Motherboard).
I just installed WMDC and it worked without any problems.
Greets all,
Mod, Sorry if this is in the wrong place, please move if need be, I did a search cause I was having trouble installed the drivers for the HTC Sync for the android, and since I was able to manage to get it installed, I thought if anyone else wasnt able to or if it wasnt found yet, I got it working for the HD2 "Motoman234 EVO Carbon Remix" Android.
Now it shouldnt matter and should work on all Androids but had to throw that in there just in case.
This is for Windows 2003 server (Instructions), but should work on other OS's:
1) Download the newest HTC Sync: 3.0.5481.
2) Run the installer, it will load many things as a requirement.
3) 2 Installer will fail: Windows Media Runtime 11 & USB Drivers. On both it will ask you if you want to continue to install, say yes.
4)Once installed, connect your phone, Windows will locate it and say new hardware found "ADB" Do not allow windows to search for the driverss, it wont find them, instead download the file from my post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=9719661&postcount=2
5)Unzip the folder, and make windows look in that folder, it might ask you if you should install it, say yes, once installed, your HTC Sync is fully functional to sync whatever you want.
Hope this helps anyone having trouble with Windows 2003, or any other version. And if this was solved already, my apologies, just trying to help.
I've been looking for 2003 drivers ever since I got my HTC Desire back in March. Will give this a go later and see how I get on.
I can confirm that the above procedure works fine. Many thanks
thanks you very much
good, I try and success!
good! I try and success. thanks a lot!
My pleasure, glad to be of help
You are amaizing,,,,, thank you very much... You saved me from installing new o/s
thank you once again
i just buy wp7 yesterday, i was no idea how to sync it to the pc.
i heard that you need zune to sync with it like itunes. i'm installed it once, but it cannot update and say 'connection error, restart software'.
so i reinstalled again, but stuck at 100%.
a lot in the internet say that their os was XP of vista, and no windows 7 (and i'm using w7).
please, share with me how things are working here. thanks
i was able to sync and I have windows 7.
-make sure ZUNE is up to date
-you may get better results using the USB cable that came with the phone
-if you have more than one, try them all.
-you may get better results using the USB ports on the back of the PC

Have ya configured your phone already, a Live account and all that jazz ?
I have Windows 7, so that is not your problem... make sure your Zune is workling properly and if needed download a new version and reinstall it. Syncing Zune and WP7 is a pretty straight forward thing.
i'm already did that, it's just now i am trying to "reinstall" zune because it cannot update my windows phone 7 (version with no copy-cut-paste)
my zune installer is "downloading update at 100%" and stuck, no solution on the internet. some say to go back to xp (LOL)
for sync-ing my wp is no problem because it is straight forward

Like I said, I have Windows 7 x64 and the system runs great and no problems with Zune.
In you Windows try and create a new use with admin rights and try and install Zune in that user area, or use System Restore to roll back to a few days back... telling you to format and reinstall Windows 7 should be a last resort.
What "update" are you trying to install?

nothing, i'm trying to install, but the installer say updating, maybe i got old version package.
new problem here: i'm already download new package for installation, and i stuck at this point "preparing you computer, installing the zune sofware", so i think i have to contact zune for this problem
update: i just got the solution form help forum, apparently he say "just hit spacebar", and it work, feel like slap the software to wake up.
but now the software doesn't installed properly, no shortcut in the desktop

How long have you had that current installation of you Windows 7 ?
It might be a problem with your OS and not Zune... like I said, create a new user with admin right and install from there, Restore System to an older date.
If all fails, might be time for a fresh Windows 7 install.

Accessories, System Tools and you should have System Restore there. Try and restore to an older point in time, see if that helps.
When all else fails... format c:
system restore didn't have any effect at all. format is the only option left, i give up on this software.
i just don't want to waste anymore time, i'll use wp7 connector for mac instead.
thank you very much for everyone here for spending time to answer me. operator may closed this post in peace.
