I have just flashed my wizard with a TNT wm6 and now I can't get activesync to regonize my device. I am using activesync 4.5. I uninstalled activesync and relaoded it. I have rebooted both my wizard and my laptop. I have checked the coms and let activesync look for my wizard and it tells me that my device has npot been detected. My wizard is showing the plugged in icon and is taking a charge from my laptop but its not allowing me to share info. is there anything I am missing....?
thanks!
I got the same problem! Cant sync with 2nd PC after upgrade to TNT5.0. I reinstalled Active Sync but it wont work. Now I only can sync with the PC which used to flash ROM. Is there any bar in OS that just allow sync to 1 computer?
Nopes !!!
There's no bar of any sort in any OS as not establish connectivity through Activesync.Which Windows are you using,Active Sync will only work on WinXP and not on WinVista.
1.Disable any Firewall or Anti virus program,check connectivity now.
2.disconnect phone from usb cable,delete partneship from pc and phone.
3.Uninstall Activesync,reboot pc.
4.Get phone into bootloaders mode (multicolor screen),Hook up the phone with pc via usb cable,check if usb appears at the bottom of the bootloaders in the phone,if it's there than,it's establishing connection with phone,if not then,there's a problem either in anyone one of these :-
a) USB cable , b) mini usb port of the phone c) Usb port of the PC.
Dig out the problem and rectify accordingly
Cheers !
Yep... All checked!
Before upgrade, normally I've using all 2 PC (and some others PC) to sync with. I upgraded on PC1, is OK. Plug in PC2, it still recornized, connecting but couldnt connected. Batt charging normal. I've deleted all partnership., reinstall ActiveSync, disable Kapersky AV... but still get error. Oh my God, do I have to reinstall Windows??? It's too tired and take long time....

DiCham, have you had any development on this or has anyone else had this problem? I downloaded the same verison from Nov07 and have not been able to connect since.
when it set to advanced networking it should give up a network device
in the network connections folder
rightclick this network device and choose properties and in there
uncheck the kaspersky protocol (not uninstall)
you can also try to uncheck the advanced network setting on the wizard

Sadly, I have no development upto now because I have no time to reinstall Windows in 2nd PC! I hope it will help... thinking about USB driver/controller reinstall first, it will take less time than whole WindowsXP...
japsfinest: do follow da_jojo, it worked!
da_jojo: thanks very much! It work but unfortunately, i'm right on reinstalling Windows! hehehe....
I have a strange problem with a HTC Touch PRO. Here is my problem:
- I insert the USB cable and the phone asks if I want to use mass storage or activesync
-the phone shows a connection on the screen
-The PC is not sensing anything, the activesync is not connected.
I think this problem appeared after I used a wrong usb cable...
Anyone knows anything what to try? or this is a hardware problem?
Did you select ACTIVESYNC?
There are 2 modes this phone can do..
1) Standard ActiveSYNC or
2) AS a MASS STORAGE DEVICE -like a flash drive...
You have to select ActiveSYNC to actually SYNC software/calendar, else it will show up as just another drive to drag/drop files..
Yes i did it in every way and the computer is not sensing the connection with the phone.
Anyone know what kinf of hardware is responsible for the connection with the pc?

The problem is likely with your operating system on your pc.
You can try things like, un-installing the HTC usb driver in device manager.
Check your firewall.
- allow activesync for trusted
- I know for ZoneAlarm you have to go to the adapters section and set the ipaddress (a new one is created when your phone is hooked up via USB) to be trusted.
If that doesn't fix issue perhaps its a corrupt install of ActiveSync. Try uninstalling and reinstalling.

I've had this happen to me. I've got so many USB to mini-USB cables and they are not all alike.
Sometimes, it would work and sometimes activesync would not recognize it.
CHANGE YOUR CABLE to another. Hopefully, you've labeled the original cable that came with the phone..
(also, look at the mini cable where it plugs into your phone. Make sure there are no loose pins and/or verify that the 'plug' is level.
Try a different USB port
Try unchecking "use advanced network configuration" in Async settings on the phone. Some computers (for various reasons) have a hard time communicating with the phone when it's configured as a network device - unchecking this will often allow Async to find and connect to the phone, at the expense of some other functionality.
coincendentally i am having the same exact issue, it started last night.
i have tried 3 different cords, on all 3 usb ports on my computer. same thing the phone asks what kind of connection i want whether i select disk drive ofr active sync noting happens. whats weird is that the phone is charging when its connected however the computer is not seeing it at all.
i have tried all the recommendations in this thread but nothing is working. anymore help would be greatly apprciated!
Me too I have tryed everything but none is working.
I think that this a hardware problem, and the problem started to happen after i used a non HTC cable, bad quality. I think some kind of controller is dead. So i started to live with that
When I connteced to the PC via USB, my TP also asked me how to connect (AS or as disc). But suddenly it doesn't ask anymore. I had to deactivate "advanced network configuration" to conntect to AS.
The checkbox "ask each time USB connects" is activated.
What can I do that the phone asks again when I connect it?
Thx.
I have the same thing going on... suddenly a few days ago my fuze only charges when I plug it in the desktop with a usb cable... I re-flashed and it worked about halfway through a sync and then started again... I've tried different cables... uninstalled all of the usb drivers, and reinstalled then updated them... Disconnected the power supply... tried every setting on my phone, and in windows.... I've even uninstalled the last batch of windows updates that came out last week... nothing seems to work...
really simple solution.
decheck advanced network config. plug in cable wait till you see usb connected. a small box. after that choose for example activesync
internet share
This happened to me last night and I figured out that after you toggle your internet sharing you can sync up again. Idk why it works out like that but it worked for me.
This sound reasonable, because the last thing I did before was selecting the "internet sharing" option in the menu when you connect to USB.
But what do you mean with "toggle your internet sharing"? Can you please describe it.
Thx.
try this
okay - first see if you're getting an active connection with your pc , not from the network connections window, but by running mymobiler. I was getting a connection through mymobiler, but active sync wasn't recognizing the device. If mymobiler works, Call your phone. it will drop your connection with mymobiler when you answer the call. then hang up the phone call. (all the while leaving your cable plugged into your phone. When the call has been disconnected your activesync will recognize the connection and sync up again. I don't know why this works, but I've been able to duplicate the results several times.
Same htc ****+ wm. Bought an iphone 3g. Everything must be tuned in windows mobile! It doesn't work how it should!
None of this seems to be working... I've even flashed new roms and it stops working halfway through the sync... it doesn't even appear as though windows recognizes the device... it makes no noise or pop-up when I connect it...
Still charges though... Don't know what is going on...
Reinstall Mobile Device Manager!

I've experienced this issue multiple times, as I use my TP to sync with many stations. The solution is way more simple than you think and it has nothing to do with cables!.
You probably use Win Vista so all you need is to uninstall "Windows Mobile Device Center", restart the PC and install a fresh copy from MS site.

If you're on XP, do the same with the Active sync solution for XP.
Good luck!
yeah this happens to me every now and then. the advanced network configuration option really helps, but sometimes i just need to plugin/unplug the usb cable from teh phone/cable or cable/computer a couple more timesbefore it picks it up...
goodluck!
Hi evryone,
I have these days a curious problem with Active Sync (that worked very well before with: Active Sync 4.5, Asus P525 WM6.5):
The usb connection work fine: the phone is charged, the storage card is visible when I turn on "USB mode", connection test show: USB connected
but the sync can not work because "device not detected".
I don't install anything neither make any change on my PDA before that.
Could anyone help me?
Pleaseeeeeeeeeeee
Many Thanks by advance
can you recall doing anything that could've done this? any application installation maybe?
Thanks Nir for your replay, i found the problem: it was a bug of Active Sync!, I reinstalled Active Sync IN REPAIR mode (remove Active Sync and reinstall anew one would not work) and all go fine again.
delete any partnerships on both device and pc, start a fresh. Also try turning off "enable faster data sync" in usb to pc.
damn you got in there quickly lol
kool at least its resolved lol

Hi:
I have a Fuze I have been using for several months. At some point it stopped connecting via USB to Active Sync. I was still able to sync via bluetooth.
Since the official ATT ROM is about to be released I decided to troubleshoot the USB/ActiveSync problem.
Well, I checked all connections, deleted and reinstalled partnership, tried different cables, different USB ports, uninstalled and reinstalled ActiveSync, unchecked the advanced network functionality box, turned Firewall on and off. Other usb devices are working fine, and I am able to connect the phone as storage/file transfer, just not ActiveSync.
I have searched and searched, and tried everything I can find, but now after so much messing with it, I am unable to connect to ActiveSync at all. When I try to pair it via bluetooth to my phone ActiveSync doesn't even show up as a service anymore.
When I connect via usb, I get the same error unable to establish a connection, and it suggests I check my Firewall.
I have added ActiveSync to my Firewall etc..., as well as completely disabling my Firewall. Still nothing. I have tried all the steps suggested by ZoneAlarm.
I am using Windows XP, ZoneAlarm Security Suite 8.0.298.035.
ANY ideas would really, really be appreciated.
Thanks!
Activesync is one of M$'s WORST inventions! Before WM6, The only way to connect your computer was via activesync (there was no "drive" option that i knew of)
I HATE activsync, never have gotten it to work. Thank GOD Google sync is around, sync up my contacts and calendar over the air.
Honestly, I'd say avoid activsync at all costs. But one other option MAY be to create a new user account on your computer and try activsync with that user.
I could also say ditch windows for ubuntu, but i have yet to find any easy way to sync my Fuze with ubuntu
Hi Cass:
Thanks for the reply. Well creating a new user did enable me to once again sync via bluetooth, but still no luck with the usb connection
Is it possible to install a ROM update via bluetooth?
Thanks!
i am not expert and I have not had that problem wth my fuze, but have you tried doing a hard reset?

uninstall activesync, reboot,make sure activesync files were deleted, reinstall activesync, turn the firewall off (for testing purposes), (turn off MS firewall service in services) and try to reconnect then.
Need a little more information in order to help you. Information that would help is:
- Version of Operating System Service Pack
- Version of Active Sync
- Anti-Virus software
In the interim; can I assume that these KB articles did not help?
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/915152/en-us

I've run into similar issues with other USB devices; and the solution is usually one of two:
1) Too many USB device entries
When a device is not connected to the PC, it doesn't display in the Device Manager. To display those hidden devices, follow the steps in this KB article:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/241257/en-us
Once the hidden devices are displayed (usually semi-transparent looking) you can right-click on each one and remove it. If you see any hidden devices with an Exclamation, you need to remove those as well.
For the moment, keep to USB related devices - in other words, don't go removal happy ... some hidden devices are meant to be there.
2) Driver Signing
It's also possible that you have a driver signing issue. You can temporarily disable driver signing by right-clicking on My Computer and selecting Properties ... the option is found on the Hardware tab.
Don't leave it permanently disabled; set it Warn, at the very least, to avoid malicious installation of Trojan or other similar programs.
HTH,
You don't need activesync to install a ROM from the computer. Hold the power, volume down button, and press the reset button with your stylus. This will take you into bootloader mode. Keep holding the buttons after pressing the reset button until the tricolor screen comes up. Then plug the phone into the computer. It should say "USB" at the bottom, which shows that it is connected to the computer. Then flash away.
You can try it out and let us know if it works. Just soft reset after you confirm it works.
You could also flash via SD card, but that's more work and requires unlocking phone.
Thank you all so much!
I have not been able to try any of your suggestions, because I had an unexpected work issue arise, but I will definitely try then within the next couple days, and report back here.
Thanks again!
I have problems syncing with WMDC and my Fuze. When it becomes persistent, I end the partnership, uninstall WMDC, and then reinstall it. It then works for a while.

Junk:
You are my hero!! Your advice worked perfectly. I was able to update to the new ROM without using ActiveSync.
Thanks so much!!
And thanks to those of you who replied. I didn't try the other suggestions, since Junk's worked perfectly for me.
New user here at XDA-Developers and looking forward to enhancing my Touch Pro (Sprint) experience.
I have a frustrating issue! I am unable to sync my Touch Pro with my computer
Before you think "Oh boy, another problem this person can fix with common sense or a search" - I'll tell you I tried everything and searched everywhere! When connected via USB, the device is getting a charge (Plugged-in icon plus white charging light flashing on center button) but my computer does not have that USB connected sound that you get when a USB device is plugged in. Nothing shows in device manager and nothing is recognized in WMDC either.
Here's what I have done so far:
* Uninstalled WMDC and reinstalled from the Microsoft website
* Soft-reset my phone (multiple times)
* Rebooted the computer (multiple times)
* Unchecked 'Enable advanced network functionality' in the USB to PC section. Note: 'ActiveSync' is checked. I did toggle between that and 'Disc Drive'
* On my phone, I unchecked and rechecked the 'Synchronize all PCs using this connection' under ActiveSync>Connections... (USB Selected of course)
* Removed the partnership from both my computer and the phone
* Attempted to connect via 'Internet Sharing' on the phone using USB. Received error 67 and then I rebooted the phone.
* The phone does connect to my friend's laptop via Bluetooth - so Bluetooth sync appears to be working.
* I have NOT done a hard reset. I am reluctant to do this since i can't sync to back up my data (I do not have Bluetooth-equipped computers)
* I do have an HTC Mogul and it DID CONNECT using the same USB port and USB cable.
* The phone is not recognized on two other machines I connected it to.
Due to the last two items, it has to an issue with the phone and not the cable or computer.
I am using Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit (We have a MSDN subscription) but I had this issue before upgrading from Vista Ultimate 64-bit OS. Note: Windows 7 does appear to use the same WMDC as Vista (6.1.6965)
Please help! Thank you.
Update: I did a hard reset and it still did not connect. Sprint ended up replacing the device under an extended warranty for defective USB data connection.
Ok, on my friens phone it was a broken Phone USB port. Same behavior as ur phone.
For the hardreset, get yourself pimbackup(contacts and appointments) or sbp backup (if all has incl software has to be saved) and save all ur data on the flash card. Then try hardreset.
Right, it smells like the USB port in your phone might be defective when you don't get the USB recognized sound on your PC. Take it back to Sprint.
Regards,
Carty..
Thanks for the advice. I am really hoping that it's not a defective USB port since I'm just out of warranty (I do have insurance though). It looks like my only option now may be the hard reset. Since I can backup on my friends's PC all my ActiveSync items (calendar, contacts, etc), I may not need SPB or pimbackup. I need to back up my texts and settings though.. I hear Sprite Backup is good for this.
What was your outcome because I have the same problem.......
If you do alot of searching here, ppcgeeks and howardsforum...alot of the usb is malfunctioning on the TP. Mine just stopped working one day. That was a month ago. And i tried all the "fixes" nothing worked.
*uncheck advanced start/setting/connections/usb to pc uncheck advance network
*Start/program/internet sharing: pc connection USB and connect
*open it up and check if anything is unplugged
*clean the usb port with qtip
*try different OEM 11pin data cables
*uninstall/install WMDC, yep i have win7- which worked great at one point
*last but not least...hard reset....
Only the usb connection doesn't work. It charges via usb. Video out works. And headset works. Sync with xp a no go.
My pc (win7), work pc (xp), home pc (xp) and umpc (vista)- it wil not recognize....
So I use a micro sd card reader to install apps (cabs) and pics to my pc/ppc.
And also use this useful app via wifi too, WIFI Remote Access 1.0 Beta 5 released
it is free since it is in beta...but very useful...

I am in the same boat as you.....I have tried multiple computers, hard-resets, flashed from SD card a few times but suddenly it will not work anymore. This is ridiculous. I am pursuing a new, different phone since I cannot sync it anymore. I shouldn't have to take the card out, put it in a reader and do things like that. I have spent hours and hours on a fix but nothing has worked. I am at a loss....
