Connection Problem - General Questions and Answers

I recently bought an epix i907 that works great, but when connected to the comptuer, it doesnt connect to activesync even when trying to connect manually. The computer detects that the phone is plugged in, but it doesnt have anything in the mobile device folder.. any ideas?

this depends on what operating system is on the computer

Windows XP professional

have you installed acitvesync

lol... yes

yeah thats wasnt meant to be a laugh at you but yo do get membrs plugging devices int a pc and expecting it to do amazing things lol
so tell me what you have done from the begining thisll give me a better idea of whats wrong

haha sorry
I recently got a new mother board and video card so i had to reinstall XP and all the programs on my computer. I installed ActiveSync using the AT&T getting started CD. It connected once, but after that it doesnt connect anymore. Also my tilt willl connect to active sync

have you tried using the cd for tilt instead of the i907 or vice versa

Yes, but it says that the usb device is not recognized

Computer Can't Detect my HTC Fuze

I have a windows vista 64 bit. and I've installed WMDC and my computer just won't recognize the device. It sure see's it, but it says that its an "unknown device" and then nothing happens. Any solutions?
is there a chance that your x64 Vista doesn't have all drivers? try using windows update.
if this didn't work, i'd back everything up on my device, go to Start/Control Panel/Device Manager and delete whatever it identified. restart your PC and hard-reset your fuze and try again.
oh and by the way, If i were you, i'd use Windows 7 Build 7077 instead of Vista x64

I tried everything listed above, still nothing, I can't believe two Windows based operating systems can't just hook up without problems. Why is this happening?
I have the same problem with my diamond. Just not possible to sync, so I have to use bluetooth.
It sucks though, I didn't get Bluetooth for this computer thinking I wouldn't need it. So I avoided the extra charge, but now it's coming back to bite me. But technically I still shouldn't need it if this thing would work.
Is there some sort of bluetooth adapter I can get so I can actually use bluetooth with my laptop? Or does it have to be built in?
If a ROM is replcaed and an OS is replaced, and it stil doesn't work, I would only guess it's a hardware problem.. which seems kinda odd.
I had this problem too. I found out that it was actually the USB Cable that was faulty. If you have another device with mini USB that you can try and see if the same result happens with the same USB cable.
The USB change actually worked, but it didn't sync, it opened as a mass storage device, and the WMDC didn't see it...

Have you installed ActiveSync or Mobile Device Center? Have you checked the device drivers on your PC to make sure they loaded properly?

[Q] USB device not recognized

Hi all, Ive had my captivate for about a week now and have been playing with it, I've been all over the web trying to figure out why I can't sync it with my pc Ive tried both my laptop with windows 7 and my desktop running XP. Nothing will work ive downloaded the drivers from Samsung's site and kies and kies mini with no luck. No matter what i do it says device not recognized windows has stopped the device and nothing shows up on the phones screen it just shows its charging, I'm guessing its something I'm doing but i just don't know what. Once I had so much trouble I connected a Samsung flight to my PC that's running XP and it worked just fine. Can anyone help me out i want to root the captivate so i can get take off all this att crap!!!
Did you mount the phone after plugging it into your computer? You should pull down the notification bar and it should give you the option to copy files to/from computer.
Also, set you usb settings to mass storage. It's in settings...can't remember where on stock.

Yes I have put the phone in all the different usb settings debugging,media player, mass storage, ask on connection, kies. When I plug it in the only thing that changes on the phone screen is its showing its charging it doesn't give me any option to mount. The same cable will connect my old Flight phone and that phone transfers files just fine. This really has me stumped.
You downloaded and installed drivers from this site? http://www.samsung.com/us/support/downloads/SGH-I897ZKAATT
This may sound random and stupid but are you plugging into a USB that is directly connected to the motherboard (back of the computer)? If you're on a laptop there is no way to test this...basically, there was some issues before of people not having their computer recognize their phone and the issue was too low of power from the USB.
Hopefully someone else can chime in as well. I'm pretty new to this too so I can only think of fairly basic things.

[Q] Can´t connect Omnia 7 to PC

hey XDAs
received my omnia 7 on last friday and it´s everything i could´ve asked for!
but now i got a little problem...
at first, some facts: i´m on a macbook pro and i use the windows phone 7 connector (tried win 7 and zune via boot camp, too).
i tried to unlock with 2 different trys, a) with chevron and b) with some dialer code to get in the "diagnosis" menu........both tries failed!
but after b) i got a new "diagnosis" tile in my apps menu
now i have the problem, that my pc can´t recognize the phone anymore...win 7 and zune say "no phone connected" and the wp7 connector (mac) doesn´t do anything (should start automatically, when phone is plugged in) but i get a "new network device found" message where i need to configure the new device.
(in addition, i THINK that my phone doesn´t even load the battery through the usb port, so maybe my cable is broken?)
maybe i can´t connect my phone because of the "diagnosis" menu?? and how can i remove this app??? maybe i should do a factory reset?
so what´s the problem here??? even if i can´t do the unlock, it sucks not being able to put music, videos or even updates on my omnia ;(
really nobody?
I don't know anything about using Macs with a WP7, but on windows, you need yo make sure you have the latest Zune. Also, if you have hacked to allow tethering, you have also turned off the Zune sync function.

The problem is you aren't actually running windows, it's still a virtual system. The USB controls are still through your mac. You will not be able to connect your win7 phone to a mac, that is not possible, and your wasting your time even attempting it. Sell the mac and buy a laptop, you will be happier.

If he's using VMWare fusion and accessing a Win7 guest via OSX host, then you're right.
However, if he's dual-booting Win7 through Boot Camp, then it should still work.
Samsung phones, like LG phones, have a way of switching the USB mode to allow Zune or allow tethering (the latter killed by Mango).
Monkeytown will have to follow the instructions for changing the USB mode back to the one that allows for Zune (on LG phones, it's called MS COMPOSITE).
i´m running a dual boot system, no vmware...
and microsoft released the wp7 connector themselves for mac, so it SHOULD work :/
i think i never saw an option of tethering in the settings menu, so how can i do that? i mean, change the usb mode
/e: i managed to get another omnia 7, and it works like a charm via my usb cable and mac connector
so....i would like to see the instructions that i should follow -.-

win7 pc wont recognize p3113

i have googled for 3 or 4 days now trying to find a solution as to why my brand new p3113 will not connect to my computer. i have installed, uninstalled, restarted, rebooted kies and driver.s i've even switched pcs. i feel like everything i could possibly find and still no connection.
my husbands win vista pc connected (little DING usb noise) but it was unrecognized device and i couldnt get passed that point. my win 7 pc will only charge the tablet, nothing else. im starting to get frustrated so i'm open to suggestions...
It could be the cable. It could also be the usb port on your pc might be defective. Have you tried using a different usb port?

Did you try to install Kies on the vista pc ?
If you only want to transfer data on the internal/external SD card try using "camera mode" in connection settings.
I have the same problem with an Windows8 pc, Kies does not see any of my samsung phones no matter what i tried, but i can freely flash true odin.
