I preface this by saying that I was at one time able to sync my phone with my pc, but I have been trying to sync my samsung epix recently and just can't get my vista 32bit pc to recognize my phone. I have uninstalled and reinstalled modem drivers and wmdc a dozen times, (following samsungs directions to a "t"), and wmdc still shows "not connected". I have tried changing the settings in the phone, and pretty much followed all of the directions I could find on the net. the closest I get now is "connecting" on wmdc. Eventually it gives me an error message. The thing I don't get is that in the wmdc connection settings, it does say "connected" when I have the usb to pc "enable advanced network functionality" unchecked. Any help with this would be greatly appreciated, or even if someone can point me in the right direction.
Thanks
PS I have re-installed windows, repaired windows, soft rest my phone, and hard resets with the same results.

I've tried to open the WMDC for almost a week without any luck.
When I click on the WMDC icon from my start menu, WMDC logo pops up from the screen says "Please wait while Windows Mobile Device Center starts." for about good 15 seconds... and the poof. Nothing happens.
I uninstalled the WMDC and reinstalled it many many many times without any luck. I even deleted the device driver from driver manager... no luck.
What is going on? I has been working fine until last week?!? and I can't seem to pin pont what the heck is wrong with my computer...
BTW, I have a Titan (Verizon Wireless X6800) with DCD's 2.2.6 rom with the 3.27.00 radio rom... and of course Hard-SPL has been done. I suspect nothing really is wrong with the phone and am pretty sure that it has got to be the computer itself..
Can anyone chime in on this matter? I'd really appreciated all your help.
Hello all... I'm a total newbie to Windows Mobile and this site. Hopefully I've found the right place to post this. I have Win XP SP2 with activesync 4.5 and HTC touch pro (att fuze). My device connects to the PC fine but ONLY as a guest (tried this with someone else's device as well, same issue). I plugged my device into my co-workwer's PC and the got the option to set up a sync partnership. This option has never appeared on my PC. I've deleted/reinstalled activesync multiple times and tried other suggestions found here (checking & unchecking "advanced network functioality" and "ask about connection type" in USB to PC settings on the device). Prior to all of this I had software called Intelatrac installed on my PC. This is a "task tracking" program which uses activesync to connect to a Windows Mobile PDA device. I don't use this software in my current job so I uninstalled it. Somthing in the Intelatrac/Active sync set up is possibly the issue. I've connencted multiple devices to my PC and to another PC which has Intelatrac. NEVER is there an option to set up a partnership. Only guest connections automatically occur. All menu options in activesync except for "connection settings" are "grayed out" ("Syncronize", "Mobile Device", "Delete Moblie Device"). Any ideas what to look for? I have tried my IT department for the past month but have yet to find anyone who has a clue. Sorry for the long description.

Actually, long descriptions are best to identify problems
This is just a suggestion, but maybe this Intelatrac software left something in the registry that is being used by ActiveSync. My advise to you would be to first uninstall ActiveSync and then look for entries for this program in the registry and delete them if you find them. You could use autoruns to see if there are any processes/dll loading that shouldn't be there in the first place as well. Hope this helps...
Thanks for the reply... a problem with something left in the registry is exactly what I thought might be the problem. This being my PC at work, I don't have authorization to even look at the registry let alone edit it. Only our IT "help" desk group can don that . Through unofficial channels I got access and found that there are at least 20 references to "Intelatrac" left in the registry. If I can ever get these folks to look at the problem I'll report on the results. Thanks again!
Hi, my Fuze will not connect with active sync. it wont even be recognized on my computer so i cannot use it as a disk drive either. It does recognize that it is charging but wont connect! ive tried a hard reset and still no help. i cannot flash a new rom or anything because it wont connect! im not sure if it is the rom or not because it was working and suddenly it just disconnected and i cant connect since. is there anything i can do please help!
Only time i had this problem, was when i first bought the fuze. I had already had a kaiser sychned up w/ active synch. However i see now winmo has a device manager type of thing you can download, im guessing that will help using two devices.
did you or do you synch another winmo device on the same computer?
I have the same problemafter a reset. From the Start menu go to Settings and then select the Connections tab. Click on the "USB to PC" icon. Under ActiveSync uncheck the "Enable advanced network functionality". Active Sync should work properly.

I arrived here fifteen minutes ago with the same problem of USB not doing anything.
I read this above but UNticked the "enable faster data synchronisation and then it worked. Some things drive you mad.
But still greatfull for the tip
Huib
I can no longer sync
Hi,
I also can no longer sync. I have just unticked the 'enable faster data connection' as suggested and it still doesn't work.
I bought a UK T-Mobile Vario 4 last week. I downloaded and changed the ROM to PROven ROM 3.1 a couple of days ago, and all was fine until this afternoon.
I have done a soft reset - not worked. rebooted PC - not worked. Ended partnership on Windows Mobile Device Center (I run Vista) - not worked.
HELP. I am a newbie and not technical, though I somehow managed to change the ROM after lots of attempts.
Any ideas anyone?
Thanks for your help

Sorry, I forgot to mention, the error message I am getting is:
"One of the USB devices attached to this computer has malfunctioned, and Windows does not recognize it. Try reconnecting the device. If Windows still does not recognize it, replace the device."
Any ideas???
Thanks

I just had this problem last week! All of a sudden windows couldn't recognize the usb device. Very EASY fix. Reseat your Micro SD card, it worked for me the first try. Hope this helps!
Hi everybody
I have an HTC Fuze (ATT). The ROM I used was NATF v5. series. I tried a couple of days ago to sync it with my computer but it gave me an "USB device not recognized" message. I did a hard reset but it didn't change anything. I changed the "Energy" rom, but I had the same problem. I tried now to sync the phone with another laptop but I have the same message, so something happened with the phone. What I noticed was the fact that actually when I hard reseted, I still had the NATF 5.series screen shot, even if the rom was the energy one. I appreciate each answer as I don't know what I can do more.

Had you try other cables Sir?
NATF splash screen will remain there, because when you flash Energy ROM, it didn't contain splash screen, so it wouldn't be replaced.
I tried a different cable, as well as a different computer. On the new computer there was no previous activesync installed. This led me to belive that there is a problem in the registry somewhere, but I don't know what to change. I also installed the Activesync 4.5 several times. on the ald and new computer, but nothing helps. No firewall active.
Adriciu
<- same problem
Anybody has any ideas?
What about using other phones, if it's okay then the problem was on Your phone, vice versa.
In my opinion, to get phone connected, we must have Activesync (for Win XP) or WMDC (for Vista) installed, good cable (original preferred) and good phone condition (H/W or S/W)
Hope You solve it soon Sir.
I have reinstalled the ATT rom, but is still gives me a "USB device not recognized" message. So I think something is wrong with my phone. Is there any way where I can clean up the whole registry and start from a clean fresh phone?
Still not working.
I had a simmilar problem a long time back.... How I fixed it was I deleted that connection setting for that phone in activesync... Then rebooted...Try to connect it then... If it still doesn;t work, UNINSTALL activesync... reboot... reboot again for good measure.. then reinstall it... reboot... Then try to connect again.... a lot of steps, but it worked for me when I put a diffrent on an old phone I had...
OK, some updates. I tried syncing with another laptop and it is not working. I tried doing the same thing with an Apple comp and it doesn't even see it as an usb device. However I tried syncing wifi with my gmail account and it is giving me the following error message: "The configuration on your Exchange server prevents you from synchronizing. Support code: 0x85010004". So I think there is a setting I don't know how to change.
Hello people.
I recently reinstalled my Win7 and I wanted to connect it with my X1, but when I plugged the phone in for the first time, Windows started downloading some weird drivers (RNDIS?) instead just opening the device control panel thing. Now I'm pretty much stuck and can't connect my phone to my PC (I get the connection error sound every time), except for the disk mode.
I've serched for some answers here on xda as well as on the internet and all the fixes I found either don't work, are already applied or open up new problems for me.
Here's what I've tried already:
Rebooting PC countless times
Turning off the advanced network settings in usb to pc menu on X1,
Reinstalling WMDC countless times
Downloading some weird WMDC updates from microsoft download center
Configuring the registry (Enum key) - getting access denied error to everything I'm trying to do there
Opening the device manager in Windows - It's just blank.
About the software and ROM status, my X1 was just HR'd and I've installed just some basic stuff like the performance pack (Advanced Config + SKTools), MortScript and S2P.
I know that the problem here is rather related to PC, but I hope you guys still can help me, as I'm running out of ideas (and sanity).
Sorry for my english (not my native language), and please do help me if you can.
Same problem here.
So far I've been able to troubleshoot it a little.
First off RNDIS is the regular WinMo driver. So nothing weird there.
Secondly WMDC does work when you run the app as an administrator (on my end anyways). That is in no way a solution though... just a workaround.
I now need to pinpoint the part that needs the actual admin rights.
I'm going to keep on trying to find the answer and I hope more people will help.
Thanks for replying for my post.
Launching WMDC isn't the problem for me though. It starts up fine, it just doesn't connect with the phone.
Keeping fingers crossed for a solution, and thanks again.
I managed to get it started too now.
Again, as an administrator it runs all fine and dandy, but no sigar as a user.
So after I get it started no connection whatsoever. Still looking...
Got it!
Installed the drivers through SCCM at system deployment. Then WMDC installs perfectly.
It still wouldn't run though. And this was because of a policy which was enabled: WPD Device: deny read/write access
Enabling write access solved my problem.
hi henk!
I had the same problem.
I changed the policy, then win7 installed drivers for the xperia, it recognizes the phone, I'm able to navigate into the memory card...
But the wmdc don't see my xperia is connected, and if I try to transfer some music from win7 to my xperia, it's very slow(1b/s)!
Have you got any idea?
Had you the same slow speed?
