Permanently unlock device when sync with Vista

Hello,
I upgraded my Wizard to WM6 (faria) and I have a problem when synchronizing with Vista (Windows Mobile Device Center).
I have a password on the PDA and each time I connect to my Vista desktop the system asks me to type in the password (actually you have to do it on your PDA, not the desktop itself) to begin synchronization. It's irritating!!!
When I did the same on XP + AS 4.5 I needed to type in the pass just for the first time (then the system asks you if you want to remember it).
Is there any way to turn on this feature (i.e. remember password) in Vista?

Yes I find this annoying as well. I'm using Universal/Dopod 900(WM6)

Hello,
Is there any solution?

That's weird... Exactly the same problem as you lot but when I plug my WM5 phone in it gives me the option to save the password. Seems to apply specifically to WM6 combined with Vista. I would think that this is one of their security "features".

For me it looks like an error not a security feature. Hope they will fix that soon.

Hi
i think this will work!
Go to ActiveSync -> Options -> Security then
Prompt me to ser my policy for automatically connectin my locked device. The propt woll appear the next time i connect my device.
Check the box and i think u r done

ActiveSync??? We're talking about WMDC on Windows _Vista_ for which there is no longer AS. Typo or wrong OS?

How many PCs you can synchronize with WM6?
Guys,
Would you happen to know how many PCs you can synchronize with WM6? Max used to be two with other versions but I'm not sure about this one.
Sorry for posting the question here - I just could find a thread specifically on this issue.
Thanks!

Update - new WMDC solves the issue.

Thank you.
Could you pls elaborate on this? What's WMDC and how does it solve the problem?
Thanks again,
lkmda

It worsk the same as with WM5 - so you will be asked for password (typed on PC) and then again whether WMDC should save it or not.

Just so everyone knows, this is one of the listed fixes for WMDC 6.1 which was released yesterday.
Edit: Hikari beat me to it...

Not possible. Just download the latest WMDC, uninstall previous verision and install this one. Should work.

Same here..

Can I just say that developer is responsible for the awful Windows Phone 7 version. They claim they're developing for Microsoft but I find it hard to believe when you see all the crap they put out.
Good luck with that.

I have the same problem... HTC Desire with Cyanogen Mod 7...
Have you any ideas to solve it?

could it be because msn is linked to fb contacts and the app is unable to fetch them?

Same here.

Same here! I don't know what's going on....

Hi i have this problem login with an account including dot like [email protected]. but with others accounts without dot works fine

Multitasking in 7720

7720 background multitasking lacks

Care to illustrate? I'm on 7712 & it works.. Not on all apps la, bt its a beta
Sent from my LG Optimus 7

Mango multitasking wont be good until the apps are updated to resume properly, right now when you go back to an app it usually wont bring you back to the exact spot you were at, because the apps doesnt know that they can and they will as long as the dev knows whats he/she is doing once mango apps start to appear

Be more specific please
Please refrain your question and be more specific. Remember this is a beta build or in your case (RTM build 7720) afterall, and only few apps and games take advantage of multitasking at the moment.
I'm running Mango RTM 7720 and multitasking is fine, much smoother and quicker than the first Mango beta build released in July and it will only get better once its approved by OEMs and network carriers.

RTM 7720 - Gmail syncing issues
Just updated my HTC HD7 to the RTM 7720 build yesterday by starting with a clean install from NoDo and everything went fine.
However, I seem to be having some trouble trying to set up Gmail. I have tried a few time to set it up but it keeps telling me "Attention required" under Settings (Email+accounts) - Gmail.
When I click on it it says the following "Update your information for m.google.com and press Save". I tried that on the browser but it takes me to the mobile version of Gmail and its not helpful at all.
Has anyone else come across this issue? If so, any solutions...???
Thanks in advance

how do i use the multitasking function

I had that problem too. This morning it was gone. Maybe try again? It was perhaps on Google part that things didn't work.

As stated each app much be updated with a single line of code to make MT work in Mango. The Marketplace will not allow apps to have this code at the moment. Thus most apps not working with MT.

Really? I suppose instead of acting like a douche (Most users do) and telling you to use Search, I can tell you that you hold down the Back button on your phone.
PS: Use search. Most users wont be so kind.

hehe thanks....watched a youtube video and saw it.

Windows phone device manager help

i installed it on my computer which has win7 ultimate.. but i just cant find a way to open the program...
i have an hd7 chevron unlocked on 7392.. zune software 4.8.(someting)..
the version of the wpdm says it is 1.3..
i tried already to run it in compatibility mode for both xp and vista and still it wont open. can anyone please help me to open the program

What is it doing? Does it appear to launch & than automatically close? If so, it's because of the WP& Developer Tools (I think that's the name). It requires the 7.0 version to be installed. The Mango one will cause it to crash & not having it installed will also cause it to crash.

okay then how do we remove it>?
i couldent get it to work ither and now i cant get it to remove thares a non working short cut with no icon stuck in my control pannel
can anyone help?

no it doesnt do anything.. just the uac opens and then the circle around the arrow shows which indicates its loading but then nothing happens... i do have wp developer tools . newer ones cuz i needed them to unlock the phone n sync the .xap files to phone

WPDM v1.3 is not compatible with Mango & the Mango tools. The desktop app is reliant on the original tools. TouchXperience on phone won't work on Mango & is needed for WPDM to connect.

okk but wasnt there a wpdm with version 1.6 or something like that ??.
anyways so if i want to use it should i downgrade the windows tools and zune to 4.7 ????
sorry am somekind of a noob for wp7

I think 1.6 isn't reliant on the tools app. You can keep Zune 4.8, it's the mango support tools that causes the problem. The 1.6 is closed beta. If you donate to Schaps & email him on his site, he'll give your forum account on his site access to the beta forum. A minimum donation is enough. I have it & it's a lot better.

I don't think that works either. The main problem to why WPDM isn't working as it should in Mango is because Mango have restricted InteropServices and native code. As soon as anyone finds a way to go around that it'll probably work.

The OP is talking about the desktop app crashing. I already mentioned that TouchXperience doesn't work in Mango & is required for WPDM to connect to your phone.

ok thanks for your replies ill try to restore to the old developent tools to see if that works

Marketplace tab on Zune does nothing?

I just got myy wp7 repaired after nearly 2 months so im very behind on the news. For some reason when i click on my marketplace tab on ZUNE it does absolutely nothing (no response just stays the same), I would like to know if this is just my zune and i need to download a new one or is Zune dead?( I heard something about mircrosoft letting go of zune or something)
My zune version is 4.8.2345.0
Thanks in advance

Now no marlet with Zune.

What is the alternative now? Do i always have to visit the site?

No more Zune when WP8 comes out. This is the first step of dumping it.
You're meant to visit the marketplace on your phone only.
