Dell Venue Pro do not sync with zune (certificate problem) - Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Ok, so I've been reading all the forums around the web (including here) and I cant solve my problem alone! I mean, I guess I know what my problem is, it goes something like this
I connected the phone, windows installed all the drivers (the latest ones), I ran WPtools, I ran the fix program from the microsoft web (it did not encounter any probem) and I did EVERYTHING, but I cant still make zune recognize my phone... The thing is that when I do the certmgr.msc and go to personal>certificates I only have one and its not from zune, my phone or anything like it! And obviously I can delete the cert because it isnt there! Wp tools gave me an error saying that it wasnt unable to restore my phone, zune got me another error C10100(and something else), i've tried in two differents computers (the phone its the one with problems?) How can I fix this? If you need some more info please let me know! I know that there are many people under my problem and we cant find an answer
PS: Excuse my english! And please help me! Im not from the USA so if i cant fix this i will lose my money (i cant use the warranty)

have you tried resetting your phone? maybe thats the simplest thing to try before proceeding forward.
there are also a few tutorials on how you could swap the SD cards (in case you think the issue is with the SD Card in your DVP). But just note that removing the SD Card voids your warranty.

I did almost everything!
I did reseted the phone, I know its not about the SD card... Its the certificate that zune uses that its not being created (in 4 differents PCs this happened) and I dont know if there is a problem with the phone or something else! I really need help here!
PS: is there a way to update my phone (it has 7.0.0.something) that doesnot requires zune software? Or is there an alternative to zune? THANKS!

Try this mb:
Delete the Zune certificates following the instructions above
Before restarting the Zune software, locate the folder C:\Users\<UserName>\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Crypto\RSA
Inside that folder there should be a directory named something like S-1-5-21-1234567890-1234567890-1234567890-1111
Rename this folder e.g. adding .bak to the end of the folder name
Restart the Zune software - the folder should be recreated and a new Zune certificate should be created in the certificate store
I needed to restart Zune one more time in order for the error to clear and the phone to connect successfully

Pvplayer-for XDA mini?

I have my device from O2, so got no pvplayer on it.Download from 'pvplayer.com'-is not possible because is a copyrighted file that Orange devices include.So how to get it?I hope somone got an idea because i really need it.I think there is a version for Pc too!
I remember a thread a while ago that was discussing how to avoid installing these "first boot" progs, it mentioned that you reset the handset at a certain point through the setup, the handset then wont install the cabs and it will just leave them in the memory somewhere, I need to find someone who has / is prepared (M500 for example) to do this and copy the .cabs to a computer who could send me the right cab, and hey presto.
Thanks...

//more info:
while the sudden disconnecting happend,
windows tried to install unknown drivers, but failed,
maybe thats causing the trouble..
i really hope its mango not hardware issue
btw, still unlocked, can start homebrew & sync zune
freaks me out.. next up:
reinstall zune & mango sdk
if not working, nodo backup
ive also read about a hd2 guy with this error but also couldnt sync with zune,
he also had the unknown drivers installed, but never got a fix,
he couldnt even flash a rom, also not after reinstalling everything...
a little scary story, surfing in dangerous grounds
homebrew Xaps in mango
Microsoft doesn't support ID_CAP_INTEROPSERVICES" in mango, but not all xaps require it, I removed it from the Navigon xap and then re-deployed it and it ran fine all my maps work on mango
A question here, what did you package .xap with?

Use either WinRAR or 7zip to unzip the XAP. Edit the file, compress to a zip, rename zip to XAP. I have a thread on this already...

There's no need to decompress the archive in order to be able to edit a certain file. At least if it's text based. I for one open the xap with 7zip, then right click the xml file and choose "edit". I can then edit the file to my needs, save it and when I close 7zip it asks me to write the changes to the archive. Once this is done I can deploy the xap to my device and all is fine.
True, the result is exactly the same, but this way you save some time and reduce the amount of possible mistakes.

True, never thought about that. Sometimes we just overlook the simple solutions lol...
a little offtopic
however, i successfully deployed other versions of the same app earlier on mango so i dont think it had something to do with ID_CAP_INTEROPSERVICES
it seems mango with tmode spl needs more work.
it get lots of different small bugs..
like i had 5x the same call in multitasking..
aborting calls almost crashed my phone today..
im thinking it was alround more stable on htceu spl
but i didnt try to fix anything yet..
maybe when i want to deploy something next time,
ill keep reporting..

Did someone tried to use IC_CAP_INTEROPSERVICES in apps? Heard that too about the deactivation but I'm still looking for proof.
I have the same error 0x89731812 !
I can't deploy any XAP with Application Deployment. I can't debug too with Visual Studio Express (Failed to connect to device. Ensure the device is completly booted and connected to PC).
I have restarted PC and telephone and reinstalled SDK and Zune but the error is still here !
As far as I know the Mango update removes your unlock. I think the only method to keep it unlocked is to use the provxml method. I've got a Omnia 7 which got relocked after Mango beta update - then I restored my unlocked NoDo backup. I'll try the provxml method and tell you if it worked for me
yes its not that the device is not unlocked, it still is.
@zuifon:
did you notice at some point that windows tried to install drivers for your phone but couldnt find any?
it looks like only restore will resolve this error.. its still a beta..
but i dont know yet, i still didnt try it but thx for reporting,
so i wont have to check if reinstall the windows software fixxes it
My phone is unlocked by APPMFG.
Applications installed before Mango still work.
The message is the same if I disconnect the USB Cable, it's very curious !
Zune detects the phone but not the deployer.
I have deleted the phone in the periphal manager in Windows and driver have been redownloaded from Windows Update but the problem is the same.

the unknown driver? or the phone driver?
my device manager does not show any unknown driver..
but it found unknown (the phone) hardware at some point..
now someone over here
reported that he also had used a different phone but can not deploy with the computer anymore. not sure if he has the same error code.
It's a phone problem. I have the same problem with a second computer.
hey guys,
i updated my dev unlocked omnia 7 to mango and re-unlocked it after having finished the update process.
for some reason, i cannot deploy any .xap to my phone, regardless of having ID_CAP_INTEROPSERVICES or not.
the software deployment software keeps telling me "the remotehost has closed the connection".
anyone have an idea? this is majorly annoying for me.
cheers,
phil
hey,I just think we have the same problem as you described,and i resolved it by my friends help. It's really easy, hey hey, just try to change it on another Universal Serial Bus. Hope can help you~~
heh actually i never tried using another usb port..
i have zuned the backup, everything working again.
maybe update to mango in some days
What on earth could be causing this? My phone (Optimus7) was in service and it got new mainboard. After it came back i did the usual tricks to unlock it etc. but now the deploying ends to this 0x89731812 error no matter what i try. Could anyone have an idea on where to start looking for the cause?

Same here, i don't know if it's warranty repair-related, i don't remember if i unlocked it after that (i relocked it way before mango, that's for sure)...but i got no new mainboard, they just replaced some components (based on repair list sheet), it seems strange they changed something so important to break developer connectivity

Does anyone know if this could be repair-related or just software? i tried last chewron tool too, no changes, phone doesn't connect to "developer" tools.
I guess if there is any registry key related to developer connectivity, to check if they changed anything through some strange sw flash (hoping it's not really hw)

Device not connected - Help, can't deploy apps anymore

Hi,
I have an unbranded HTC 7 Mozart T8696 Device running NoDo 7392.
It was chevron unlocked before I upgraded to NoDo and I was able to install apps aferwards. Currently sideloaded apps still work, so I assume the chevron unlock is still active. After about one month I wanted to sideload another app, but I always get an error telling me the device is not connected to the PC (I tried XAP Deploy and "Windows Phone Device Manager" even though Zune is running and showing the device as connected.
Any Ideas what might be wrong? I already tried uninstalling .net framework 4 and windows phone developer tools and re-installing, but it still shows "device not connected"
try this ... go to C\windows\system32\drivers\etc , open the file named "hosts" with notepad and delete any lines that say windowsphonedevelopement...
Hi,
thanks for your feedback. my hosts file is empty, still not working.
I am still using Zune 4.7 should I update to 4.8?
i had this same problem with my hd7 before and it worked after deleting that ... thats weird , yea 4.8 is now officially released u should update ..hopefully it will solve ur problem
still no luck, even with Zune 4.8

Failed to connect to the device. Ensure that the device is completely booted and is connected to the PC.
This can be caused by several reasons, including if the device is off. If the device is already connected, sometimes disconnecting and then reconnecting the device may fix the problem. Rebooting the device may also fix this problem.
This is what i tried multiple times. Rebooting the PC, rebooting the phone, re-installing .NET Framework 4, re-installing WP7 developer tools... all to no avail...
did u make sure the phones sync relationship with zune is not guest
Yes, I made sure it is. Nothing has changed on my PC really, except i switched routers. I am not sure what's happened...
hmmm maybe u can try going into device manager and uninstalling then reinstalling the phone drivers
I also went along and tried that. Still no luck.
EDIT: to clarify, I selected to uninstall the device and delete the driver files along with it. When I connected the phone it was re-installing the drivers.
tbh, i give up now. It's probably my phone and I can't be bothered to start from scratch again.
sorry i couldnt help u fix the problem
Instead of zune. Try using wpconnect.exe instead.
Thats all I use and its alot quicker that opening up zune and everything.
If you have Developer Tools 7.0 and the January Update wpconnect can be found here
C:\program files\microsoft sdk's\windows phone\v7.0\tools\wpconnect\
Restart your computer then connect your phone via usb wait for computer to recognize the phone. Then run wpconnect.exe... Dont run zune at all.
Hello,
thanks for your feedback, but wpconnect is giving me the same error as all deployment apps:
Failed to connect to the device.
It suggests i open zune and close it again. Zune itself recognises my phone and is able to sync data to it. WPconnect and deployment apps keep on telling me the phone is not connected...
*Bump* Anyone else have this problem?
could it be a pc registry problem ?
*bump* Still can't sideload
Hello !
Actually I've got the same problem.
Reparing .NET does nothing.
I've tried many things, as uninstalling programs that could interact on USB (VM Ware Workstation, Oracle VirtualBox, Kaspersky Internet Security 2012 and so on).
None of the XAP Deploy application works... And ChevronUnlocker is concerned to.
I don't know what to do.
Here I am too...same problem with my gf's optimus 7, no deplyment tool can connect to device, error 0x89731812, Zune works flawlessly.
Did you guys find the problem after warranty repair?
So, I seem to be running into this problem every 4 weeks... I am starting to hate this, I can never fix the issue aside from hard resetting my phone with a new ROM...
Anyone found a solution to this problem yet? I am currently on DFT v2 and I can't deploy xaps via PC. I can still deploy with the built in XAP deployer, but I have 2 xaps that I can't deploy using this method...

Bricked phone build.prop missing

Hi to all here. i just want to ask anyone what to do with my phone. well first of all, my phone is a sky pantech vega racer im-a760s, not really a match for samsungs popularity but budget wise this is the model for me. it has a dual core. now my problem starts when i started editing the build.prop in its system (tweaked for some texting problem of limited character sending). of course i know what im doing on that part, but the only thing i didn't think that would happen was, i copied it in my computer, i edited it there, then i saved it as "all" in file type so it wont become a ".txt" format. but when i placed it in my phone. the file instantly disappeared, i think it was only hidden and the phone just cant identify it nor read it like something. now i restarted the phone, it booted up to its logo then it just went blank and it just stops there. i tried pushing recovery with adb in my pc cmd. but it cannot detect my device(no problem with my adb installation to eliminate this from the question), i also tried putting an sd card with a recovery file but there was no option for sd card path. but the phone can still function well, i know because it can still be loaded under flashboot, download screen and S / W upgrade menu and it can still perform wipes for all partition and caches and can reset for factory settings etc. but whenever i will reboot, its not going to complete. anyone please help me how to make my phone be detected by my pc. The usb drivers are just fine, updated it many times, read all procedure for making the driver connect perfectly. i reformatted the sd so it wont be a problem when i put it in. but in the recovery menu i just cant see my sd card, theres just the option for "update from external storage" but it doesn't have anything inside. what a mess. i cant make my phone reflashed cause its not responding with the connection with my pc. but when i am opening an odin (just used for connection monitoring) there are two yellow boxes with com port like these: 0:[com7] and 0:[com9], so i know it is still somehow communicating with my pc. please help any advice, i dont want to resort to jtag for im not sure if it will support my phone and it's already avialable for the model but definitely not going to send my phone for repair cause it will be costly. thanks to all who will respond. Please help thank you. additionally: OS was ics version 4.0.4 and rooted. already gone through rooting several times with no problem. just the editing part.
to edit Android files on Windows use only Notepad++ anyway do not use Windows notepad this is for Windows files formatting only
well, you have to get build.prop from your phone edit on PC then copy back
so enter recovery connect phone to PC create a folder say C:\tmp
to get build.prop from phone
Code:
adb devices
adb shell
mount system
exit
that's to mount system partition then
Code:
adb pull /system/build.prop C:\tmp\build.prop
edit it and copy back to phone
Code:
adb push C:\tmp\build.prop /system/build.prop
maybe is not your case ? but I wanted to give you an idea
@ruscan.calin
Thanks, great. i will try this one once i get my phone recognized by my pc, adb seems not able to find my devcie have this message like this one:
"
c:\>adb devices
adb server is out of date. killing...
*daemon started successfully *
list of devices attached "
and that's it nothing happens.
thanks for the advice i will definitely use this once i get my phone connected with my system. thanks a lot

Hi, cant still afford to make the adb component in my device manager to appear, but it's good to inform you that it helped me a bit because i was able to see the storage of my phone and i was also able to put some files in there without any hassle that alone was satisfying me that my phone is not really dead. sad to say i did everything i could to have my pc detect my phone via recovery menu, but still no devices found. it's really weird that some links are saying that i should make my phone's "usb debugging" enabled, wherein fact i cant even go beyond my original problem(bricked phone), i can't even see the inside of my phones directory, only the storage one that was activated just recently. i even did a reinstallation of my usb, uninstalled every other phone related usb installation to avoid conflicts reinstalled my phones proper usb installer then restart. no progress still to be called. it makes me feel that the phone was just trap in the state of booting and not knowing what to do because it cant see any command inside its system. i cant go into the systems directory as well. and that's the only way i think i could revive my phone in replacing a new build.prop, as you advised to be edited in a notepad++ which i recently acquired and installed. by the way how do i save the build.prop to its original file format, and what is the extension. thanks alot for helping out. im getting a little brighter each step of the way, im not loosing it to come to smashing my phone to pieces instead of keeping a very expensive paper weight.
usb debugging enabled is not useful in this case (you can't set it )
build.prop is a file with .prop extension save file with notepad++ name it build.prop then check location of file it should be build.prop notepad from Windows saves it as build.prop.txt that's not good also notepad adds some formatting characters inside file that's wrong so use only Notepad++ when working on Android files (or VIM for Windows editor etc anyway do not use Windows editors they are good for Windows files only)
-try these things on another computer (to install drivers etc)
-I advised somebody to send a mail to manufacturer and he got a reply with a link to stock rom... that's great !
-if you link me your build.prop file I can tell you if it's ok
-pc link - that's to be solved firstly check manufacturer site for sync software/ drivers even send mail

that's great news, you actually come to emailing the phones manufacturer? wow, im flattered. well you're a very nice guy to help me out on this. and i have good news too. i found out that i have a little conflicting usb drivers, as i have installed samsung for my previous phone(samsung galaxy 1) i had it liquidated for this new one. but a little hard on the support. you gave me a new idea about the usb. so i uninstalled all the related usb drivers and have it reinstalled. now i am able to communicate with OTA firmware server, and i got a reading that was not happening before(stucked in just detecting the phone) now i have a percentage reading of downloading or so. but i still have to wait if it will complete and have it repaired. so by now you can give me a little more help cause im still not at it in pushing through the use of adb programming. and the link you mentioned, i'll wait for the progress about it and see what really was it. and thanks a lot. really appreciate it.
fixed bricked phone via OTA by fixing link to pc.
Hi, i thank you for your help. i managed to fix the phone myself. i just missed the simple step that you advised me. fix the link first to pc. i have installed another model of the phone for the same manufacturer with different type so that was causing the mixed up for updating and recovering via the OTA site of the phone. so yey. you helped a lot. i thank you. i am now running at ics version 4.0.4 and now rooted. i will not commit the same mistake of saving the build.prop with another format. that was bad. so then i'll be very careful in editing the build.prop and first of all, i will keep a backup inside where i can access it even if it will be hard bricked. never forget that one from now on. so this is it. i thank you. of all the place ive been circling around for answer. here is where i found it. and just one person. hooray. thank you very much.

Polaroid 9 inch tablet

i picked up the polaroid 9 inch internet tablet (pmid920 model number) for $88 bucks today from menards that came with a keyboard and the case and the tablet. I dinked around with it for a bit doesn't seem to bad besides not having the android market, im ok with the tablet seems decent for the price and the basic needs i will be using it for. But when searching the internet I can't find a single review or a guide to root it or any custom roms. Has anyone else purchased this tablet on black friday? or heard good or bad things? Any help how i could get root and flash a rom or atleast get play market? Thanks guys.
specs:
android 4.2
1.6 Ghz Dual-Core
Ram: 1gb/DDR3
Res:1024x600
Int Mem: *gb
Ext Mem: Micro Sd
I picked one up as well and also have been un able to find any info on how to root it or install Google play.
polaroid pmid920
I also got one today but im hesitant to open it without reading a good review. How is the performance? Is it sluggish or does it respond well? I also just bought a sansung galaxy tab 3 7.0 and im disappointed because of how slow it is. Can anyone confirm the response of this tablet? I want to be sure thid time before I regret openning the bix. I searched for other sites and it doesnt seem to be one of the recognized models by android. Thats probably why theres no google play.does it allow installation of apps from other sources? Thanks for any review ir response!
I got a similar deal yesterday; Insignia Flex 8
Having the same problem with rooting. Seems like not many people try with these budget tablets.
What chip is it running?
I wonder if it's similar to the flex and maybe the same method will work for both?
PMID920 Root ?
PMID920 rooted !
Hey guys I think I got the bastage rooted, have to retrace my steps on how I did it.
I will post my files for you soon!
uploading a few pics for now.
anything that I can test to make sure I have full root ?

Please do! I want to try it on the flex.
Try su in a terminal and make sure it works. Though I think you should be good root checker reports ok.
Root files
I take no credit for these programs and files
I used the modded usb windows drivers in file below to install
the drivers for the PMID920
I used Root_with_Restore_by_Bin4ry_v32 to root the device
selecting option one, and following the on screen instructions
it did not take the first time around, I tried every selection I could
I even un rooted via all methods, but every time it said success
I would check with root check pro and after about the 8th time the damn thing worked.
Try selection ( 1 new ) from the get go, maybe you wont have an issue like me
it kept looking for an ric file, but it would not create it, it seems to have worked
after I created the file.
Now we need recovery, google play, 4.4 kitkat, just messing !
Please post your results.
Edit; got gapps installed, this things turning out to be alright.
needs gps though !
Show some love and hit the thanks.
Seemed to Work for me on the first time.
Have you found any custom roms with Google play and the stock apps that work on it?
How did you guys get it to recognize your device?
Every time I try, it says "Please connect Device with USB Debugging to your computer"
My tablet is connected, with USB debugging on

Yeah, well, I just installed DPInst in the folder. Was there something else I should do?
Google play works
Google play works great with the stock ROM!
1 root device as above.
2 download JB gapps, unzip it on your PC and copy the system folder over to this device sdcard/download folder
3 find and install root explorer, copy apk to device and install, run it and click parent folder until you are in root directory
now click read write, instead of read only on the top left to give it permission to write files, navigate to sdcard/download where
the JB gapps system folder was copied, click copy with root explorer as paste it in your root directory where the system folder is,
it will ask you if you want to merge the folder click yes and let it finish, once done reboot your tablet and you will be prompted
to set up a Google account.
You now have Google play, Google tts, calander, voice search, gmail and a brand new toy!

Seemed to Work for me on the first time.
Have you found any custom roms with Google play and the stock apps that work on it?

What device are you trying to root the tablet from,
From a windows device you download and extract the USB driver files
you may need to run the driver setup as administrator, after install check
and see if you have adb device in control panel, system manager, it should not
have an exclamation sign on it, if you need lead device to driver folder.
Also try another USB port, and try to unplug the device and plug it back in when the program is looking for it.
Im returning mine, as i found at walmart they had a 10.1" tablet for $99 that had good reviews on amazon. This tablet seemed to be hit or miss for the 7 inch version after finding reviews on amazon. awesome that it was found how to find root, i just couldn't stand the screen as it seemed u had to be straight on with it or it was hard to see. for a extra $11 i figured i'd return in to menards and go with the 10.1" tablet. Here is the link for it.

any info on this one?
Is there any dedicated sites for tablets? as xda seems clearly for mobile devices..

I take no credit for these programs and files
I used the modded usb windows drivers in file below to install
the drivers for the PMID920
I used Root_with_Restore_by_Bin4ry_v32 to root the device
selecting option one, and following the on screen instructions
it did not take the first time around, I tried every selection I could
I even un rooted via all methods, but every time it said success
I would check with root check pro and after about the 8th time the damn thing worked.
Try selection ( 1 new ) from the get go, maybe you wont have an issue like me
it kept looking for an ric file, but it would not create it, it seems to have worked
after I created the file.
Now we need recovery, google play, 4.4 kitkat, just messing !
Please post your results.
Edit; got gapps installed, this things turning out to be alright.
needs gps though !
Show some love and hit the thanks.

Help please
I'm trying everything I have seen here but my 920 won't root, I get a deameon started message sometimes but nothing happens. I'm using a windows 7 machine, installed usb driver and still nothing. I've installed craynogen mod on a tab 2 10.1 and then this little tablet stumps me. Anything would be helpful. If you need more info just pm me.Thanks

I got this tablet just last night. I truthfully wouldn't mind if it couldn't access the market, except that the stock youtube player on the device doesn't seem to be able to play playlists, just single videos, it won't auto-play any playlists.
I've downloaded the android market (Gapps-2.3.4.zip) on the device and installed it, but whenever I try to open the market, it asks me to add an account, and clicking yes just closes back to the main screen.
I tried Lionideas (sp?) steps, downloading both the root by recovery and usb driver. I installed dpinst-32bit.exe, as well as running adb.exe (wasn't sure if both were necessary, or if any further steps are necessary.)
After that, I enabled USB debugging on the device (there's a notification on the top status bar that it's running), connected it to my PC, and ran the runme.bat file. Selecting option one, it tells me to connect a device with usb-debugging enabled, and halts there...as far as I can tell I've followed the steps, can anyone enlighten me?
