Diamond cradle not working with W2000, no drivers?? - Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Accessories

Hello all,
Just got a USB/power cradle on eBay for my Diamond only to find that it works great on my XP home PC, but can not find the drivers to connect on my "archaic" W2000 company/work PC. Has anyone else had this silly issue with W2000 and a standard USB charge cradle bought through eBay?? Can't be seen by Activesync or data drive mode after initial connection failure to find driver!!
Diamond connects and syncs fine with just the cable (Activesybc & data drive mode)
BTW: this is definately a USB driver issue, not Activesync or other.....
Thanks in advance

USB Activesync cable, not detecting phone but charging...

Besides my cradle, I have an activesync cable (USB on one end & connector for my XDA II unit on the other end). I've been using it for quite sometime now, until one day it stopped detecting my phone, I can no longer synchronize on my unit...but the thing is, it can still charge my XDA II.
I can activesync with my cradle...so does this mean that my activesync cable is the one defective? What are the possible solution, Im looking for a diagram for this interface, there must be a loose connection on my cable.

What OS are you using?
If WM5 - there are several Threads about XDAII with WM5 having problems to sync via USB (I have this (unsolved) problem, too).
(Have a lokk at www.buzzdev.net, too)
So: no solution, but at leat an assurance that there is no hardware problem.

I turn of firewall of pc windows xp.
I experience the same problem too.
Try re-installing the ActiveSync. This worked for me.
I installed the WM 6.1 about one month ago and everything was fine until recently. Has anyone been able to find a solution for this? mine started doing this about three days ago. I was syncing fine just last week!!
(edited, I´ll move it to a proper place)
Have you tried disabling the advanced network functionality option?
I'm having the same problems too.
It all worked fine. 1 day it stopped working. I've removed the partnerships and uninstalled ActiveSync, installed again, reboot both devices. Started working.
Now it stopped working again!
I've got a HTC TyTN
Help...!
I've the exact same problem with me Raphael with RomEOS WM6.1. It won't work on Vista or XP, tried all the standard stuff and tried it on a fresh computer with Vista. Seems to be a WM6.1 or ROM issue.
I'm looking for instalation files for ActiveSync on WM6.1, but can't find any.
Where we can find ActiveSync ROM cab file so that we can install on Mobile again.
Since ActiveSync on mobile is not working as I have to 2 phones
1) HTC Tytn II (Not Working)
2) O2 Atom ( Working )
with same usb cable and same desktop or laptop.
can anyone help where we can get a activeSync Installer for phone.
I have the same problem, I am running WM5 on an Eten Om600+ and Vista no my laptop.

Any suggestions?

where do i find that?
ok Im having the same problem here with my Titan.. how did you all get it to work again?
i got a SPV M1000. one cradle and one USB cable. I prefer using USB cable to cradle. I got same problem as you with my USB cable. USB cable can charge but can not synch. I dismantled my USB cable and found out that. one data tag(pin) was loose. and people should know that. USB cable have 22 tags(pins): 2,5,16,17,18 are connect to (-) negative and 13,20,21,22 (+) positive. the tag number 14 and 15 is the date line. If one of 14 or 15 tag is loosen(mean it donot touch to your ppc when you plug the cable in) then your ppc only can charge and cannot synch. So, I pushed the tag 14th on my cable back, seal with some superglue. after that, my usb cable work again until now.
by the way, i disconnected the pin number 20,21,22 from (+) positive. disconnect one data pin ( 14 or 15). after that, my USB cable can be used to charge my PPC through PC or the any chargers with voltage >5V. is that usefull huh?. and when i want to Synch, i reconect that pins again. for more convenient, i do it with a Switch with 2 poles.

Big Trouble with USB :(

...first of all, my configuration:
G3 Wizard (i-mate branded)
- IPL/SPL 2.18
- radio 2.37.11
- NBD 7.4 touch
my phone works perfect all time but 1 hour ago I've connected it to my pc and SURPRISE: no power light and no charging....
O__o i've changed my usb cable but...nothing!
I've tried to connect to power usb cable (original shipped with my wiz...): nothing at all....PANIC!!!!
hard reset....no solution!
i've tried to connect cable very slowly and...now it's charging but....
...NO ACTIVESYNC!!!
i've tried to connect/disconnect some times and power charging is perfect but NO activesync...
ANY IDEA????
------
extra info: last efficient connection is via WM5torage to a customer notebook...and it works ok
now...also via WM5torage NO DATA TRANSFERT
in bootloader mode it connects...and i downgraded succesfully to last official wm5 italia i-mate rom.
...but no connection
did you try another computer? or the power adapter that plugs into the wall?
yes, of course!

...it's a good question: too many times it's a joke...but not now.
i've tried in 3 computers...and the response is the same: NO connection, no "usb error"...nothing...only power charging....
If I put (with camera button and softreset) in bootloader mode it's ok...
"bip" on computer and USB un the bottom of the tuchscreen.
I've upgraded anothet time to NBD 7.4 but...
NO CONNECTION
This doesnt really belong in the wm6 forum i think. but maybe you also got a bad activesync on the computer, just start everything fresh again
...usb activesync now works!
after 7 (seven) downgrade and upgrade wm6 -> wm5 -> xda6 -> wm5 -> xda6r2 -> wm5 & so on....
ACTIVESYNC NOW WORKS!!!!
(obviously SAME computer, same Activesync 4.5, same USB port/cable)
i don't know why....but...
I'm HAPPY
thanks to all!

I had a problem like that once, I discovered it was my firewall blocking me out of active sync. I had outpost firewall, I disabled it and it connected perfectly

Yeah I use Cisco VPN for my work, and it screws up ActiveSync at times. Sometimes allows my phone to connect with no problem, and othertimes won't allow activesync to see my phone. Usually turning off the enhanced check box in the USB to PC connections settings will get around it, but not always.

Similar problem
This may possibly not be the solution but I had a similar problem. I have an O2 xda mini s and after several days searching I discovered the problem. I opened up the xda and discovered that where the mini usb was soldered to the board, one of the solder points had come loose. The usb was not loose enough to stop the xda charging. By pressing down on the loose solder point the xda immediately showed up and syncing with my pc. I have now resoldered the usb back down and it works fine.
I hope that this is not the problem as it is damned fiddly soldering it back in place.
Hope this helps
I solved my problem
Hello Friends..
I have solve my problem,
I opened the k-jam and renewed the point of usb port with solder machine.
Now it is well working. Charging and sync.
If you have similar problem so i think you can try this one.
But i think you must very carefully.
Solder machine must be very thin.

Have you been using some kind of holder for your wizard on your car?
I have seen several USB connectors with a bad attachment to the PCB because it has been used with car Holders that had the USB fixed.

connecting to pc

i ve bought treo 750 sacond hand without equipement
i now have some treo data cables but they only charge palm but i cannot connect via Active Sync 4.5.
do i need additional software drivers to connect treo with PC.
hlp.
ive tried with active sync 4.2 also
and i performed a hard reset
and only sign to connecting was (little usb task bar icon with text YOUR USB DEVICE CANNOT BE RECOGNIZED or sth like that) that splashes in 1 or 2 seconds.
i keep getting the same problem as well "usb device cannot be recognized". did u resolve the problem?
What software you already have on your Treo. I have Spb Mobile Shell and it's the reasn of "usb device cannot be recognized"...
i dont have any new software on the treo, it's brand new.
I had the same problem. I went into the active sync screen on my 750 then connected the usb cable and it took right off. Before that it gave me errors. Now I only have to plug it in and it takes off.

active sync screws up my keyboard?

I don't know why, but ever since i got my USB keyboard.
when i plug my phone in to active sync my keyboard and mouse acts up.
it's like it turns it self on and off.
i type or move for 5 seconds then it stops.
it also seems like it seems to be moving between windows?
like and alt-tab kinda thing.
cuz the IE window would got active and unactive.
am i making any sense?
does anyone else have this problem?
thanks!
bump, please help.
Active synce used to work great on PC but now it's acting up.
I recently replaced my KVM switch with a USB one, so i can use my USB keyboard and wireless mouse.
but ever since I did this, when i plug my phone in to active sync my keyboard acts up.
it's like it turns it self on and off.
for example, I'm chatting with someone, i type for 5 seconds then it stops, and i have to click on the window again.
am i making any sense?
does anyone else have this problem?
the PCI usb port has 4 ports, on it, it has an external 4 port USB hub, 1 usb cable that i use to plug my phone in to sync or d/l pics from my camera, and one port for the KVM switch. could it be my USB port is overloaded?
So i decieded to plug my phone into a USB port on the motherboard. the same problem happens!
so does it rule out my PCI usb ports were over loaded?
I also tried just leaving in the KVM and plugging in the phone. the samething happens!
does anyone know what could be causing this? I installed and reinstalled active sync many times.
Please help me!
hmmm !strange behavior,I'm using both a usb Logitech wireless keyboard and a usb cordless Logitech MX 1000 Laser Mouse.I have also got a separate usb cable attached for my phone,which I use very regularly,but have never had any sort of problem.
Although, I have eight usb ports on my PC,I have plugged each to a separate usb port,well as there are some usb ports in your PC which are cable to work as usb2 while are cable only usb1 data transfer.Checkout and try to connect to ports with usb 2 data transfer capable,check if it works.
secondly,disable 'connection through usb' option in the Activesync and connect the phone with the pc via usb cable and check or there's another option in the Activesync to enable connection through network connectivity or something,as I don't have the Activesync installed in my PC at present ,I can't tell you about it at present.
thirdly,which windows are you using ? if you are using winxp than upgrade to sp2 ,it'll upgrade your usb drivers automatically or download usb update drivers from Microsft site and update your usb drivers,hope it'll solve this problem.
Cheers
Thanks, but i don't know how to get active sync to connect thru network?
all the usb ports on my computer are usb 2.0 except for 2.
i tried it on all the usb ports and i get the same results.
thanks in advance.

This option enable network connections or somthing is available in the settings option of the Activesync.Right click the small icon in the Task bar of Activesync near the clock icon and you'll get the settings option,check out if this helps,good luck
Thanks, but i found out what caused the problem.
Logitech Set point caused it! are you using setpoint?
I disabled setpoint and now it works fine.
sigh...

HELP

I just bought yesterday a brand new Samsung i780 and whem I connected it to my Vista PC with WMDC it was not recognized by the OS. It didn't even reported a unknown USB device.
I only could sync the PDA with the PC using a bluetooth connection.
The problems also hapens ina PC with XP pro and activesync 4.5.
I'm not sure if this is caused by my lack of skills or if the USB cable (witch came with the i780) is broken or if the problem is the internal port of the i780 (that weired proprietary port from Samsung).
Pelase help or I will return the PDA tomorow.......
