HTC SYnc Windows 2003 Drivers

Greets all,
Mod, Sorry if this is in the wrong place, please move if need be, I did a search cause I was having trouble installed the drivers for the HTC Sync for the android, and since I was able to manage to get it installed, I thought if anyone else wasnt able to or if it wasnt found yet, I got it working for the HD2 "Motoman234 EVO Carbon Remix" Android.
Now it shouldnt matter and should work on all Androids but had to throw that in there just in case.
This is for Windows 2003 server (Instructions), but should work on other OS's:
1) Download the newest HTC Sync: 3.0.5481.
2) Run the installer, it will load many things as a requirement.
3) 2 Installer will fail: Windows Media Runtime 11 & USB Drivers. On both it will ask you if you want to continue to install, say yes.
4)Once installed, connect your phone, Windows will locate it and say new hardware found "ADB" Do not allow windows to search for the driverss, it wont find them, instead download the file from my post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=9719661&postcount=2
5)Unzip the folder, and make windows look in that folder, it might ask you if you should install it, say yes, once installed, your HTC Sync is fully functional to sync whatever you want.
Hope this helps anyone having trouble with Windows 2003, or any other version. And if this was solved already, my apologies, just trying to help.

I've been looking for 2003 drivers ever since I got my HTC Desire back in March. Will give this a go later and see how I get on.

I can confirm that the above procedure works fine. Many thanks

thanks you very much

good, I try and success!
good! I try and success. thanks a lot!

My pleasure, glad to be of help

You are amaizing,,,,, thank you very much... You saved me from installing new o/s
thank you once again

Optimus 3D root

Works with gingerbreak?

Yep!
Sent from my LG-P920 using XDA App

nope after 5minutes still running...

i can't root my p920....
but also with root,we need a kernel that allow overclock if we want clock the cpu to 1.2ghz like gs2,i think?

Oh maybe only works with older software. I was able to root. Make sure u have debugging on. Yeah, someone needs to first make a recovery then a oc kernel.

Hi Rob, firstly welcome to Android, be patient, root will arrive shortly.
However, unless you need to do some SERIOUS hacking you probably do not need root to do stuff in Android you needed to jailbreak the iPhone for. ie, just put mp3 files on you device's mSD card and they will play, same with videos, same with games. You don't need to bypass the market (as in itunes) you just need to alter you settings to accept none market stuff. A couple of clicks and your done!

Myn is rooted
You need to download google developers sdk go here http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html
and the Lg optimus 3D drivers make sure debuging is on

thanks for the welcome. so this might be another stupid question, but what is the 'root'? what does rooting actually do and is it a necessary requirement, i wont be using any custom software or writing any of my own programs, im happy with the way it is id just like to get the odd paid app for free from time to time unless theres a reason to root to get free apps or whatever(i dont always pirate i usually stick with free apps unless theres a major diff between the paid and free versions, for example just this afternoon i paid for perfectlockapp from the marketplace). also off topic but the phone has 8gb internal sd, around 900mb internal memory and ive got an 8gb external sd card. all the apps ive installed were saved onto the internal memory but i figured out how to transfer them to internal sd,but the internal sd has a capacity of only 5.93gb useable.how do i get the apps to goto onto the external sd card or cant i do this?if i cant,what is the external card for? cheers guys.rob

turn debugging on and connect your phone try it

Need extra info
I to am trying to root a P920, I've been reading through this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=803682
and it talks constantly about putting the phone in debug mode.
How do I do that?
Second I'm supposed to get the right drivers for the phone, but I don't understand where.
I have the android SDK installed with all the optional bits and Eclipse integration. I've also just downloaded super one click from the other thread.
Thanks

you find the drivers in LGE folder in the internal memory of your 3D phone or search for this LGUnitedMobileDriver_S498MA22_WHQL_ML_Ver_2.2.exe
for debug mode--->settings-application-developer-debug

Nic you're a star. I just figured out the debugging thing, so was on my way back to post that I found it, but had no clue about the drivers
Cheers
Ian

Right, I seem to have rooted my phone
Here is some additional information in case it helps.
Previously I downloaded the Android SDK and Eclipse plug in. The eclipse plug in isn't required for this, the details are above.
I put it in debug mode as detailed above.
I downloaded the file SuperOneClickv1.9.5-ShortFuse.zip from the link in my post above.
Now here's the useful bit. I couldn't get my PC to recognise my phone, it complained it couldn't load the drivers. So I went to:
edit: ok I can't post external links yet, on lg.com there's a mobile support section and a support tool.
and downloaded the support tool. This allowed me to download and install the LG P920 drivers. Once this was done I reconnected my phone to the PC and ran SuperOneClick.exe then clicked on Root.
The dos box flashed up about a dozen times, and I was about to disable debug when it said "Success!"

I'm new to all of this so sorry for being a noob.
Once I root the phone. Does this automatically imply I also unlocked it? If not how do you unlock the phone? I know there's some way to unlock them without needing to use unlock codes.
The carrier I want to use (MTS) is so puny they have a terrible phone selection. I'm thinking about rooting and having the LG Optimus 3D and rooting it. I had a friend who's done such to a HTC Desire, but it seems every phone is done very differently.
Edit: Okay, I I found the topic http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1186406 about unlocking the phone which I think makes sense but it's still difficult to follow and it seems a handful of people are having issues with it.
I can't post on that topic as I'm too new. I'm looking forward to getting this phone, rooting, and doing that unlock though once I know for sure that I'll be able to do it.

Question about installing Android after installing Windows Phone 7 on HTC HD2

Hello it's been a while that I have installed Windows phone 7 on my HD2.. (the first release from DFT I think)
But, atm I can't use at work to connect to the wifi because my MAC Adress always change...
So I wanted to put back Android but without uninstall anything.
I don't want to loose my data/config/activation from my wp7, I just want to install android in dual boot.
Anyone have successfully installed Android after WP7 but without reinstalling both?
Sorry for my english...
I have post in this thread because isn't only about HD2.

I think that you will find that the vast majority of users in this forum have WP7 handsets and so will not be able to assist you.
Logic dictates that you will have more luck in the HD2/Leo forums as the members there actually own the handset in question.
Kind Regards,
Creamy

yes, thanks for the answer, but I don't want to post twice (maybe an admin will move this?) and it can be for any wp7 device.
If anyone want to install an android system he has to reset their phone, format the partition and then loose all data/installed programs from windows phone...
Isn't specific to HD2, so I hope anyone has got the same problem as I have

Actually, this is a question ONLY for the HD2. Android cannot be installed on a WP7 handset (yet). So you are much better off posting in the HD2 forums.

Yeah, the hd2 is, generally, one of the most beastly phones to ever exist. You can even run older versions of windows, and newer versions of nonmobile Linux distros on it!!

Hope this helps, it did for me, also all the tool links are there too, I have mine running and even have TS3 full version, working on my Android side.

I do have a feeling though, that you will need to reset your win 7 side, as you will need to create and format your sd card for it to work, unless you are able to do this without the phone, then you could create the partition, but then you still need both partitions, as your win phone 7 side, will need storage space.
You will have to follow the guide to the letter, I did mine a few days ago and all is sweet, my android side is different to whats in the guide, but at least it is listed what i am running in my siggy.Best of luck and message if you need help.

More help to you, I hope.

Just a note, I actually cloned my storage on the sd card for the hd2, before I went about reinstalling, I was able to create the sd partitions for wp7 and android, then I copied the windows one back over, that way I saved all my downloaded apps.
If you are not sure about this, then you will have to bite the bullet and just wipe and reinstall, just take a note of things before you do.
You will be able to reactivate the phone by calling microboffs,via chat help, thats what I did, they gave me a key, straight away for free.....

ups didn't know we can't install from another wp device... so if an admin can move the topic...
hm, I'll try promethieus...
I'll try to backup the sd data then we will see... but didn't think it will works

[Root Question] Windows 8

So, A few months ago I downloaded and installed the developers preview of windows 8. I liked it a lot and backed up my windows 7 hd, wiped and fully installed windows 8.
Well, I bought the HTC One S yesterday. Amazing phone.
My problem, I can't root my phone because while installing the htc drivers it comes up with "~ doesn't recognize this OS" or something like that. Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks,
Tom

Maybe you should revert back to windows 7 then if the drivers wont install, Its pretty much impossible to anything without drivers

I figured that was the easiest solution HOWEVER I really dont want to spend 3 hours of work (Backup windows 8, delete, repart, load and install windows 7, root phone, delete, repart, load and install windows 8) for something that takes less than half an hour to do.
If anyone has any nice work arounds i'd really, really appreciate it!

What about installing some kind of virtual machine and Win7 or even XP on it?
can't you find any kind of driver that will install on WIN8?

I would try installing the Windows XP mode (virtual machine) if Windows 8 lets you, as mentioned above.. or perhaps download TinyXP and install as dual boot. maybe even a live install to a bootable usb drive.. although I've never been able to get that method to work well.
Or! I'll sell you my HP TC1100 already set up for HTC & Samsung phone modding!

[Q] Need help rooting please htc vivid

i have a htc vivid and i really need help i need someone to show me on skype or help me and i run on ubuntu operating system for my hp laptop so i hope you have ubuntu and know how to root on that or what ever but i really need help please help me as soon as possiable thanks post your skype below

http://theunlockr.com/2012/06/15/ho...lockworkmod-recovery-on-htc-vivid-smartphone/
This may help but I think it wont work with linux :/

You could try this in a virtual machine. After that you can flash a SuperUser/SuperSU zip file to root the stock rom, or install a custom rom from recovery.

good idea but virtual machines might be a bit troublesome but virtualbox will be fine I think.

Yup VirtualBox should do just fine, I'd recommend a Windows 7 installation. There's no need to activate it, since you're only using it to root your device, after that you can just remove the Windows 7 virtual machine.
