Wmdc Problem with Kaiser

Hi, I have done the Unlock SuperCID to my Kaiser, using my XP based laptop, but now when I try to connect to my Vista Desktop it won't recognise it, it doesn't even bring the amber charge led on! although if I connect back on to Laptop it works and connects fine. Any ideas guys as I can't seem to find a thread or wiki which relates to this problem, although I have not posted I have been reading a lot of posts lately as I am trying to gain some knowledge and experience here. Not very tech savvy, but kinda know my way around.. but I was hoping I wouldn't have to post something like this.
Thanks.
Reppy

And to think I just "upgraded" my Vista machine to XP. In Device Center see if you can remove any partnerships. Also, Restart. ON your PDA go into ActiveSync and make sure that the Vista machine isn't listed in there. If there are two Remove the Vista one by going to Menu options. Also, Soft Reset.
Also, You might get more better help if you posted in the Kaiser Section
Also, Feel Free to Check out the Kaiser FAQ and G.W.E.N.I. links in my Signature.

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.

[Q] Ready to toss Captivate out the window HEEEEEEELPPPPP Please!!!!!

So I'm ready to return this phone and switch to Verizon and a Droid X
Problem 1: No matter what I try I cannot get this phone to connect to my laptop or PC I have probably spent almost 6-10 Hours trying to do this.
Problem 2: This is no where near the concern of problem one but it's annoying as hell, following many of the users advice in order to sync my contacts I used a gmail account and it synced 750 of my "contacts" while most of those 750 are worthless to me I have about 210 or so I actually need. So in order to fix this I created a new gmail account and only copied the contacts I needed as a .csv and synced now I can't get rid of the contacts from the original sync without restoring the phone or so it says.
Setup 1: Laptop Dell Lattitude D630 with Windows XP 32bit SP3 and .net frame work 4. I have tried almost everything. Tried using Kies, Updating Kies, Reinstalling Kies, Reinstalling Drivers, Tried ever driver out there, backdating and redoing it all over again etc. tried different USB Cables the closest I ever got was where it would say Connecting ( displayed in KIES ) and would eventually time out.
Setup 2: Desktop Windows XP SP3 32 Bit .net frame work 4 basically ran down the same thing on the desktop as well except for trying the original USB cable going to try that tomorrow
With both setups I can't get either to connect or even mount the drive in debug mode so I can;t even root this piece of garbage.
IS it me? Am I doing something wrong? If so call me an idiot and tell me how to fix it. I'm open to try anything at this point as this is more frustrating then using that piece of garbage Tilt 2 I had before this.
Please oh geniuses of XDA HALP!
If you have any questions please ask or if you think I left something Important out as well

This may or may not help you; however I had to get the official drivers from Samsung and not the ones that people were using - the Galaxy S drivers caused more problems for me. Uninstall, reinstall the proper drivers, reboot. Then reconnect, expand the drivers installation "balloon" and make sure the four drivers necessary install correctly. I kept having a problem with the USB Mass Storage Driver - but the second time got it.
On the phone, switching from Samsung Kies to USB Mass Storage then enabling USB Debugging and connecting directly to my machine(s) solved most of my probs. I'm using the original USB cable; but to be honest not too sure that would make a difference - just don't go too cheap - I'm also using the Nokia N810 microUSB cable without issues.
Not 100% sure that will help you, but I also had some troubles initially. Don't fret. And good luck.

I just went through exactly the same ordeal you describe with a Win XP machine.
I eventually got it to work, here's what I did:
1. I Downloaded and installed in the following order:
A. Windows Installer 4.5 ... reboot
B. .NET Compact Framework 3.5 redistributable ... reboot
C. .NET Framework 4.0 redistibutable ... reboot
D. Windows XP sp3 ... reboot
After that I downloaded the drivers from the Samsung site, installed them and prepped my phone by putting it in mass storage mode, and turning debugging on.
After another reboot, I connected my phone, waited and prayed ... and it worked. It was a rather long wait as I watched it install the drivers ... be patient.
I think the prayer is what eventually worked ...

You're better off with an iPhone iOS4. Getting the Droid X is just as complicated, it's just how a Android is. You got to learn to use it before it gets powerful.
On a side note, if you do what the above posters are telling you to do, then I hope you love your Captivate as much as I love mine.
Best damn phone I have ever had. Have not had one real problem with it.
But please, read through the android development stickies, there are so many tutorials you just need to follow.
Download the Drivers you need, 32 or 64 bit what ever you need.

I don't use Apple products, but thanks.
It's not that the Software or procedures are beyond my scope of intellect. It seems that every stickied thread I have read on here has 11 different ways of doing the same thing, and not one process works the same for everyone.
Like I said I'm not opposed to trying anything at this point or starting from scratch I just figured it would be a little bit less confusing.
I guess I assumed it would be
DL Software > Install Drivers and Software > plug in phone and magic it works haha.
So far I love the phone besides the fact that it had an SMS error the other day and Deleted all of my texts, the audio jack has become flakey, and the gmail app has consistent errors. OH and I'm missing text messages from people

Thanks wanted to be sure, I had tried those on the laptop, I will try them tomorrow along with the other suggestions. Wish I had an office job like I used to then I would screw with it at work.

To fix the contacts, turn off the contact syncing, dowload Contact Remover from Market, run Contact Remover and select all contacts then delete. Now you can turn contact sync back on and you should be all set.

you could try simpler first - try to connect without Kies;
1. Phone ->settings->applications->usb settings -> ask on connection
2. Install drivers - I installed the AT&T captivate drivers, then the Samsung Drivers
3. Connect phone - if the screen is unlocked, you should see an option for which USB setting you want
4. Pick Mass storage
5. You should see one or two new drive letters on your machine (internal and SD card if you have one)
6. Pull down notification bar on phone, click USB, use for files, Mount drive
This will validate that you have the drivers installed without doing everything else that is involved with .Net stuff
You really only need the Captivate AT&T drivers for this part to work.
I have 2 XP machines and I have full functionality without installing Kies.

I probably tried everything as well..... if not more, but kept trying on my Win 7 64bit.
Don't know of which step finally worked but in using the updated version of Kies (Kies_1.5.1.10074_2_6), Samsung cable (non-motherboard port?), Samsung official 64bit USB drivers, unmounting External SD, setting Captivate to "ask preference for USB", and a final deep breath.
I ended up copying the Samsung USB driver folder to an easy to find location (desktop) and while in Kies(probably not necess.) I opened Windows device manager and asked each device error message to search that folder for correct driver one by one. It finally worked. I used Kies for Outlook Contacts, selected and used Media Center for music(had to remount SD before it would be recognized). Haven't used, but tried mass storage, modem(tether) and they were correctly recognized. Good luck!

What finally did it for me, after getting all the drivers to install with the phone in debug mode, was to set it to always ask on connection. It refused to install the mtp driver if I just set it to mass storage and left it there. I have no idea why, as mass storage is what I click when it connects, but it seems happier this way.

I had problems with kies and launcher pro. Had to switch back to original launcher for kies to work. Haven't tried in awhile.with both programs getting updates, it may be fixed now. My .02.

I had the same problem. .. actually I still have the same problem, however, there are ways to root and enable sideloading without ever hooking up to the computer. Try that out. If you can't find out how to do it, let me know and I'll do a write up.

Thanks Will do this today.
everything else I will try tonight and let you guys know how it goes I will do it on both my laptop and on my PC at the same time.
Thanks so much for all the suggestions guys

I had the same problem with launcher pro, no matter how I tried to connect, unless I was in debug. Switching to the always prompt or whatever took care of that for me.

i knw this isnt really helpful but dont throw it out the window send it to me hehehe

I just tried the older cable that was party to all the unsuccessful Kies attempts and got the same error. Tried Samsung cable.....no issues. Odd because that same cable worked fine for EVO 4G and a Motorola device and Moto Phone Tools.
Could be fluke?

Well first off I want to thank everyone for the words of encouragement. I was able to finally get the phone rooted. not 110% sure how I did it but it's now done.
My second issue is now getting Kies to work, all it does is sit there and say connecting device
Thanks again everyone

It says you need to have a developer unlocked phone and also have chevron.

Either a developer account, OR Chevron. Chevron only works on the older OS, and not the newer.
A $99 investment for a developer account is a small price to pay to load any application you want onto the phone (including c++ code to get to that Bluetooth radio!). You even get a nice little XAP deployment tool.

well you try it? and how is it working?

Has anyone got this to work? My Arrive is developer unlocked but I can't get the driver to show up in Device Manager on Windows 7 64bit. It seems to connect to my laptop but then no internet connection on the laptop from my arrive.
Thanks for any help,

Same here. has anyone got this to work?

I can't make it work.

Anyone have any new info on tethering the Sprint HTC Arrive?

I spent about 3 hrs on this today. Sprint arrive developer unlocked tried on my windows xp 32bit. It appears the drivers dont want to take. It says not recognized or something along those lines. Its a fairly common problem on the other thread but i have some ideas hopefully ill get to try in the upcoming days.

I have had some success. If you read the dfrouter thread than you are familiar with the process. 2 drivers must be installed on the pc first for it to work. I have the usb modem driver installed after messing around with the file. If i can get the other driver to go i believe ill be able to tether.
This modified driver is running on windows xp and appears to be ready. If anyone has a xp 32bit pc and please pm and we'll see if the driver works for you as well.
If I get the other driver to go ill tether and upload everything.

progress
I spent a few hours on trying to get the vcom driver working last night to no avail.
-on my first attempt i was able to get the driver to be recognized by the pc as the htc diagnostic tool but at the last screen it always said failed.
-on my second attempt i was able to get the driver installed but i dont think it was done properly because it was not recognized as the htc diagnostic tool.
I pm'd a few members on here so we'll see if one of them comes to the rescue, otherwise i'll try again this weekend.
after i get the xp drivers working i believe the windows 7 drivers will be easier.
To get the usbmodem driver to work i only had to change the device id to match the arrive's. the vcom doesnt appear to be that easy, df wrote that it has to be installed as its some kind of qualcom security check.
The weird thing was that i got the 6xx error that others reported when dialing out but it would only dial out in "zune mode" and not "router mode". I dont know if that is because of the vcom driver or not but that behavior was not mentioned at all in the other thread.

Driver?
I posted this in the "Update" thread, too....but figured it was relevant to this discussion....
So, I got the update a couple of days ago, daughter yesterday, wife this morning. I've got two more Arrives to go.
One thing I noticed was that when the phone was put into update mode, my Win7 gave the "found new hardware" dialog and I have a HTC 9#### (I don't remember the number but it was something like 96300 or so -- and a quick google the other day revealed it to be the right model number) driver show up when I clicked on the details. When I plug it in now, it just goes to Zune software again and I can't see the number.....but a driver got loaded.
Did MS push a driver or did whatever flashing mode cause Win7 to recognize it? This might go alonEg with the tethering work being carried out......
EDIT: 93100. Looked through history.

Thats good to know. ive yet to update but i seen it was available so i will do so tomorrow.
Does this driver remain when shown under device manager with the phone plugged in? I will upload the xp 32 htc usb modem driver tomorrow to this post. perhaps this driver can help.

After getting the update, when I plug in the phone, it shows up as "Windows Phone USB" (or was it USB Windows Phone) and not as the 91300. It only showed up in that mode when the phone screen was in a different mode....so, I guess similar to the HTC USB Modem driver screen shot shown above.
EDIT: Found a picture of what the screen looked like when the "New Hardware" was found.... http://www.wp7connect.com/tag/ssl/

success
I'll be updating this afternoon
Here's both the vcom and usbmodem drivers
I was able to get it to work after wahwka helped me
They should install 1st time when you manually force the drivers
here's the thread which I found very useful
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=922000
Now here's what's really interesting
The modem ONLY dials out in "Zune Mode" not "Router Mode" which is the opposite of what everyone says on that thread.
So it would seem the dfrouter app is not needed at all on the arrive.
Like the modem can be used right out the box if the PC had drivers.
More people need to test what I've found.
I have not been able to connect yet I get error 692 but it may be just a setting is wrong as people have posted in that thread.
I will get working on some windows 7 drivers and see what happens on that PC
I believe the pc I have at my disposal is windows 7 64 so thats what I'll get working on next.
ALSO this app may be dangerous if you're only chevron unlocked read the thread
theres a possibility you may not be able to sync with zune.
I'm developer unlocked so I don't worry about this.
The developer took a lot of heat for this program and he was only trying to help the community so read first.

Id recommend making a backup first. Ill post the win 7 32 bit drivers here tomorrow. I'm still getting error 692 on this [email protected] computer too. I'm begining to wonder if something needs to be changed/tweaked in the phone program to get it to work. Ive just started learning silverlight so maybe ill ask dfvn.
Windows 7 32 Drivers attached.
I'll begin working on windows 7 64 next.

W7 64 Drivers
Windows 7 64 Drivers
This one seemed to be a b&%$h to install
Here's how I got them to install
I plug in the phone via usb
A bubble appears in the bottom right corner saying windows update is looking for drivers
click it
when the next window pops up click the cancel installing drivers
(These steps have to be done quickly or drivers will install and you will have 2 devices portable device HTC T7575 and windows usb device)
If done quick enough you will have two unknown devices _MI01 and _MI00
Force the drivers to install as previously written and ignore the MS warnings and they will install.
From here I notice the same things in all 3 PC setups
The drivers only appear to install in "Zune Mode"
In "Router Mode" I can only get one device to show up
"HTC" MI_00 and MI_01
If I uninstall, click usb sync, htc modem, no matter what I do I cannot get 2 unknown devices unless its in "Zune Mode"
--This needs to be tested by others--
If others come up with the same results
Then this tells us 2 things
1. Our phone or the way it interacts with dfrouter is different than the other wp7 phones that dfrouter works on
2. There is a chance that the htc arrive can be used as a modem without dfrouter and anybody will be able to use it as a modem
Has anyone called Sprint to see when they will offer tethering?
I have been using the APN "internet.com"
If this is not right it could be the reason I have'nt been able to connect
because the modem does appear to dial out

I might be wrong, but I think the APN is supposed to be blank for CDMA carriers. I can't post links but Google "tcp_apn_etc_for_sprint" and see the pinstack thread.
I have already been having problems with my Arrive's EVDO modem getting stuck in "null state" (kills all wireless data until RTN wipe) so I will probably wait for a more stable tethering solution.
For what it's worth I am running WinXP 32bit and using the attached drivers when playing around in QPST/QXDM and in USB Storage Mode. Hope some of this helps you!

[Q] help with using adb?

Hello, sorry to but this here in the Q/A area. I have been searching for answers for a few weeks now dealing with using adb on my htc inspire. I have found files for doing it and all but nothing saying it will work with my htc inspire. I down loaded the latest htc sync from htc web site, plug my phone in and it dose not detect my phone. I have read that I need drivers for my phone on computer but, nothing I have tried works. Could some one either point me to the files that will work with my inspire, sorry to ask to be spoon feed this and all but nothing I try has worked. thanks a bunch.

The drivers should come with installing HTC Sync. Are you merely downloading it or also installing it?

umm installing it i guess, i downloaded the sync installer and it installed sync. i just uninstalled every thing and going to try it again.

I had the the same problem have to you tried connecting to another pc or say a car stereo for disk drive?

ok i can connect the phone to computer as a hard drive and such, but i plug it in to use sync and i get drivers can not be started in device manager?
when ever i select htc sync on phone i get that driver error. almost like the drivers I have on computer are not the right ones. but I look for the drivers and can not find any other then what came with the htc sync i got off htc web site.

You installed Sync with the phone unplugged, right?

yea i did, its almost like the drivers are wrong or corrupted or something. every time i plug phone in and click on phone htc sync the drivers do not load right.

Oh. Er, I have no idea then...

k thanks for the reply though, I know the phone works. I have hooked it up before long time ago when I rooted the phone. Prob being is i have since reformated the computer erasing everything on computer. I am missing something, just not sure as too what I need to i guess go back and get my old ace hack kit out and see what all i needed to have installed on computer to get it to work. Go from their, I am at a loss for now.

OK, I might be able to assist you because I've heard of similar situations before..so explain in a nutshell of what's really going on..

k, cool here it is. I plug my phone into my laptop, the meassage pop up down at the bottom right corner saying installing drivers. then it said needed to restart computer to finish with the install. I did that, and plug phone back in and the android drivers on laptop fail to start. I can give you the exact error i get when I go into device manager, and click on the android driver, but i cant right now I am at work. i have tried this with severial custom roms, even custom roms that are stock. Right now though i am running my original rom that came with phone, wich its not updated. Its the rom my phone came with what two years ago. I was able to connect phone to computer back then thought i would try that but no joy.
my fire wall is turned off and defender is turned off, i have turned off the setting asking me if i want to run a progrme or not, i forget what it was called and also i have not tried that yet. found it under security settings disabled it and turned off computer was going to try it tonight when i get home.

xZeroMancerx, you have any info on this that can help bud?

just thought I would add some more info. tonight I tried to install HTC sync again to see if I could get it to work. would not install windows something 11 prog also when it asked me to restart computer I waited for a min and it gave me the blue screen of death.

ok well i finally got it to work. turns out their was a major issue with my computer. was stuck on down loading sp1 from Microsoft even. I had to down load some files to fix vista, and re-download sp1 manually and install it. but sync is now working like a charm.
