Hi Everyone,
I was wondering if anyone else has this issue :
When I want to change the default notification sounds ...I select what I want ...apply it but it won't change it... it selects but it still uses the original sound... I am using the stock e-mail client and using the manual settings for POP mail !
While I'm at it ...when I try to connect the phone to my home computer to mount it as a disk drive it keeps coming up with error messages I have the new version of HTC Sync downloaded....the funny part is I can connect my old EVO phone to my computer and no problems and all my other USB devices work but the 4G won't ....when I connect the 4G to my laptop it works fine and I can mount it as a disk drive... any ideas on this would be appreciated !!!!
Thanks in advance,
Gary
Same problem witn notification sounds on Evo LTE
Having the same issues with changing the notification sounds for text messages. It keeps playing the original sound. Also, cannot connect to my computer. Says a message about invalid drivers even tough i tried searching for new ones. Any ideas?
figured it out!
Found out how to change it. Go to settings. Then select, "Personalize". There you can change the sound. Seems a strange place to put it, but it works!

Hello.
I need help. My phone is unlocked and prepaid[cingular] so it always makes this noise when i send a message or recieve a message despite the fact that all sounds to the phone are silenced. I tried to silence all notifications and yet it still made the noise. I want to delete the tone all together and maybe put a blank file there that makes no noise. I found the tone its called notify and I tried to erase it but its locked aka the delete button is greyed out. I tried to install a windows unlocker on my phone but a pop up kept comming up saying that the file is not valid/permitted and it could not be downloaded[windows wouldn't allow it]. If you have any methods or solutions for me to solve this problem respond ASAP!!!
Thank yOU!!
Have you tried going to Start->Settings->Personal->Sounds & Notifications, clicking on the Notifications tab and changing your preferences there?
Listen carefully!!!

I have change this notify.wma file to the one that has the diamond and it works....
First make a sound in wma yours or a blank noised ok?
Then sync your mda to activesync full sync (I mean say yes to all the windows of outlook, uncheck all options of sinced files, contacts, favorites etc etc) to make an association.
Open in activesync "explore" then open the windows folder and drag your file notify to overwrite the other one default file, it works! jeje.
Im from mexico and the noise makes me get mad.
Good luck!
whoa there gunslinger, how mad does it make you? (lol)

WHY I cant do that with my total commander? with some files... like delete some ringtone. even overwrite.
Hello.
I asked the forum search about it, but cant find really an helpful answer.
I do have strong problem with Active Sync. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesnt. Sometimes, I got to install Active Sync new or drop out the device and add it new to get it done.
Button for fast data connection at the Touch Pro is enabled. Working with 4.5.0 and XP.
Can someone please get me a tip?
Hardware Problem?
I had the same problem with my TyTN II which is the reason I switched to Touch Pro.
The problem I could not synch was because of the MiniUSB connector. I had to change the main board twice. So now my wife owns the TyTN II
i solved that problem by changing another usb slot (it didn't work with USB from my monitor...)
Thank you.
I tried all 6 USB Ports and nothing helped.
Also, I tried to disconnect all other USB devices, also enabled and disabled the "Charging while connected to the PC" button.
Any other suggestions?
I also had thrown out the second device I had in Active Sync.

Have you disabled "advanced network functionality" in Settings>Connections>USB to PC ?
also try reinstalling active sync again...
@Wonkotehsame:
Yes, I disabled this function.
@ yahu:
So I did. Not just one time, many times. Always after reinstalling, it workes. Some time later, I am loosing connection.
Also, if I try to copy larger files like GPS software with appr. 1,4 Gb the transfer to the Memory card stoppes with the failure message: no such file found.
Can this be something along with the Active Sync problem?
I too have problems with this. ActiveSync says phone is set up to sync with a different computer, but it's not.
Still nobody any hint for this problem?
My problem is a little bit diferent...
My vista won't sync with my Artemis, but it syncs with my Glofiish M700..
If i change the PC (OS XP x64), the artemis syncs.....
So, my Vista Notebook is angry with my Artemis... neither USB/BT sync can be done...
Nice to hear that a lot of people have similar probs ;-)
What I have done now, deleted all of my connetions features/partnerships and made all new.
For now (maybe until Monday...) it works, but now I dont get a folder on the desktop of my mobile device. Is this an optional setting? Can someone tell my how to do?
I dont believe that NOBODY has an help for this problem.
As of today, no Active Sync in any ways is possible with my phone. Even not if I make a new installation.
Also; I made sure that all Anti Virus and Firewalls do allow all 3 Active Sync Files.
What can I do else???
Another try for the specialists:
I have copied now my Outlook.pst to a different Desktop, installed there the Active Sync. I worked w/o prob. That means, the problem got to be with the Desktop.
Last try: Who can help?

Looks like you are on your way to finding the root cause. I would try the same computer but a different user to see if it is related to the user setting.
This is what I have done last night. 2nd user, installed OL new and also Active Sync.
Nothing. Same problems.
I restarted the Desktop AND the device several times.
Nothing.
But, when I came this morning, it worked the first time.
The second it failed. I will go and purchase a new Desktop for the thanks of Mr. Microsoft!
has anyone found a real solution for this problem?? mmy computer recognizes the phone a a disk drive bt active sync does nothing. any help would be greatly apprecated
I'm getting this too. Sometimes ActiveSync works, sometimes it doesn't. I can't figure out what causes it to work and not work...
Theres only two possible solutions I know of from all I've ever heard of the problem:
1. Settings-->Connections-->USB to PC. Also, I know the prompt asking you if you would like to use as a disk drive comes up if you've set your phone to be read as an sd card reader. If the pop up annoys you, try removing the SD card and trying again.
2. Hard reset.
Sorry if it doesn't seem favorable to you guys.
My pc says my connection settings in my phone need to be changed. I don't remember changing anything and I don't know what to change them to.
My phone tells (after a failed connectoin) me there is a connection error and opens MEdia net settings. I don't know what that would have to do with anything. I know I haven't changed them. There is no need. When this problem came up I tried changing some things, they didn't work, so I put them back. This is the same PC I always connect the phone to. I don't know what has changed other than i was gone for a month for work.
I need help please.
the last flash was Energy ROM 20090801 standard

Have you played with your USB to PC settings, untick\tick "Enable Faster Data"
If not, delete your sync relationship and establish a new one.
Yeah, I did both of those already. the only thing I can think to do is push the little button call "Wipe Device". then flash a new rom. I'm worried I will not be able to flash after that though.
I'm scared
Something is messed up... Sounds like a hard reset or a reflash is in order.....
Do you get the connection option screen when you plug it in to USB that says connect as:Active Sync, Modem or hard drive?
Usb Problem
From what i have seen, it can be the usb wire

Could be true. My usb wire at my studio is bad and I always have to curve it to make it work.
I might be mistaken, but I think I got a similar message a while back. I changed the setting in File->Connection Settings-> This computer is connected to: The Internet
And that did the trick for me...
Hi all,
First of all thanks scott for an awesome JB build for Infuse. Everything works great, except that, the battery icon doesn't show the phone's charging when in fact it is charging. Also, when I connect the phone to the PC with the USB cord, it doesn't get recognized as a mass storage or even an MTP device. I don't even see any settings related to this in the system settings. Any help in this regard would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
Cliff

I have no problems with the battery icon - perhaps you need to flash again? As for the USB issue, you should have the option to mount the phone in mass storage when you connect to the computer. The option shows up in the notification menu. Click that and then you should know what to do.

Thanks, but that's the problem! I don't see anything popping up in the notifications!
Also, I have another problem! For google accounts I don't see calendar in the sync options, hence I don't see any of the google account calendar in the google calendar app. Any help in this regard!
Update: Partially followed this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=35064880&highlight=calendar#post35064880
In that, just installed the calendar app from google on play store and voila!
But the storage issue remains!

If I were you, I'd do a full wipe and flash. When you flash, or rather before you flash, make sure to format system. That seems to get rid of a lot of gremlins! It's not the build at any rate, it's something to do with your setup.
That is my problem too, now i want to update other ROM but i don't know how to copy file to my Tablet. Could you help me how to do it.
Thanks all,
Long

Did this fix your issue? I'm having the same problem getting into USB mode. There isn't the option in the settings like there is in the stock rom.

Here are a couple of options.
1) Download the ROM directly to your phone through the browser.
2) Send the file to your phone over wifi using WiFi File Transfer Pro, AirDroid, or ES File Explorer. There are a number of other options in the Play Store but these are the three I've used before.
3) Pop out the external SD card and connect it to your computer to grab the file.
4) Transfer directly from your computer via Bluetooth.
I'm sure there are other ways too but these are the ones that come to mind.
Good luck.

EDIT: Just realized I replied to a month-old post.
As the title says, I use a mac and I have been unable to use both my M7 (After 4.4 Update) and my M8 on my mac. To be specific, android file transfer never sees the phone. Occasionally when booting my phone up when connected the manager pops up with a phone could not connect message, but it has never worked. This is isolated to just HTC phones for me, I verified my setup is fine with a Note 10.1 2014 (running 4.4.2), Nexus 5 (4.4.2), and a S4 (4.2). All of those connect fine.
I know there were some threads about HTC breaking something but I haven't seen a fix yet. Is there one?
If you're rooted, try DriveDroid. Let it acquire root, skip the setup, then tap on the Settings icon on the bottom bar. Then tap USB Settings and select Manually Change Permanent USB Mount. Select Media Transfer Protocol Android Debugging. Now connect your device. You should be good to go.

I hope not. I Loathe HTC Sync. Damn thing never quits right, doesn't run particularly well, and I just don't want another service running if I don't really need it. When I'm done with finals though I will try that. I have a bad feeling your right though...
If you restart the computer with the phone still plugged in, Android File transfer will work.
