Ok, I admit I am a total noob I have only had this phone a day and I was able to get it to sync with my computer last night. However, today when trying to sync I plug it in and activesync makes a sound like its recognized the device but does nothing and continues to say the device is not connected.
I am using the standard rom and have enabled data communications in the connections screen. I have tried hard and soft resets.
Please help me...
Also on a weird note it is detecting the device as a file drive but it has a ton of photos and music that I did not load onto the phone in the device folder. Also the mobile device folder is empty.
Thank you in advance.
Go to Start-> Settings -> Connections-> USB to PC and uncheck the "Enable advanced network functionality".
Connect your mobile to PC. It will be recognized (but not synch) by the ActiveSynch.
Then take it out and re-enable the "advanced network functionality".
Connect your mobile to PC agian and it will work again.
This works for me. It happened yesterday.
No go. Windows recognized it as an mobile device but activesync was still unable to connect to the device.
Also, when connecting the device as a disk drive I can see some apps i've installed in the program file, but it is still showing alot of items I didn't add. These files don't appear to be on the device. After deleting those extra files I tried to send new pictures to the device which would not transfer.
Any Ideas?
Hi evryone,
I have these days a curious problem with Active Sync (that worked very well before with: Active Sync 4.5, Asus P525 WM6.5):
The usb connection work fine: the phone is charged, the storage card is visible when I turn on "USB mode", connection test show: USB connected
but the sync can not work because "device not detected".
I don't install anything neither make any change on my PDA before that.
Could anyone help me?
Pleaseeeeeeeeeeee
Many Thanks by advance
can you recall doing anything that could've done this? any application installation maybe?
Thanks Nir for your replay, i found the problem: it was a bug of Active Sync!, I reinstalled Active Sync IN REPAIR mode (remove Active Sync and reinstall anew one would not work) and all go fine again.
delete any partnerships on both device and pc, start a fresh. Also try turning off "enable faster data sync" in usb to pc.
damn you got in there quickly lol
kool at least its resolved lol

I've installed the drivers from links within this forum that have to do with rooting. The phone is rooted but unless it is set in USB Debug Windows will not do anything with it. 2 new drives appear in My Computer after connecting the phone..one being the internal sd card and the other being the sd card I put in the phone...but both drives appear to be unusable for some reason and it shows they are both 0 bytes.
Pull down the notification tray. In mass storage mode at least, if you click the row about about USB, it will offer an option to unmount the drives from Android which will then allow the computer to use the drives.
Just makes no sense at all. I just did as you said and put it on as mass storage and the drivers were installed perfectly. What I'm trying to do is put music onto it but can't really do that using Kies without the PC recognizing it....
I also need it to be recognized to do some customizing stuff since I'm now rooted.
Plug it in, make sure you're in mass storage mode, when you plug it in, you'll get a USB icon in the notification bar, pull down the notification bar, click on USB Connected, and then click MOUNT.
Apparently Kies doesn't work in mass storage mode. I did what you said...opened Kies and it recognized the phone but it said to reconnect it cause that mode wasn't supported

If you want to use Kies, you need all of the following:
1. USB setting must be in Kies mode, not mass storage mode
2. Your phone must be in home screen (and probably has to use Samsung's TouchWiz launcher, not 3rd party launcher).
If both are met, you will see the phone goes into MTP Application mode once connected to the PC.
I found there is really nothing Kies can do that I can't do with WMP. If you need to sync with your desktop Outlook, Kies is probably your only option. Otherwise, I'd use either Media Player mode or Mass Storage mode and use WMP on the PC to sync music and video.
Are you using Windows 7 64-bit?

this,
you absolutely have to use touch whiz for kies to see you.
alternativly, you should just load music to ur sd card from "my computer" when in mass storage mode manually.
Lastly, pandora is free and will introduce you to a lot of good music. Give it a whirl.
Have constant issues with getting this phone to work with Windows.
I've got Windows 7 64bit at home. The provided drivers helped. I was able to detect the phone and see it.
2nd time I plugged it in, it would say error occurred. Installed Kies, phone had been freshly restarted, it was detected just fine. An hour later, after testing a few things, tried to hook up using USB and phone would not show up on Kies.
Rebooting PC or rebooting phone causes the phone to pull up.
Same issue with Windows XP 32bit.
I had some problems as well where windows would not detect it or I would b stuck on a usb slower than 2.0..turns out the stock sync cable included with the phone was garbage bought a new one off ebay and windows 7 installed the drivers perfectly and detects my phone with and without usb debugging turned on. It also gives me usb 2.0 speeds

Hi all, I was just wondering what drivers need to be installed to get this to work on an XP system. I have HTC Sync installed, but setting the phone to ICM still doesn't trigger anything under Network Connections. Will I need to install ADB as well or should this work with the HTC Sync driver?
When you plug in your phone, there should be an icon that cones up in my computer from Verizon. It's a program that the internet connect mode runs through
I recently bought a new PC running Windows 7 and after installing HTC Sync and all the drivers, my phone will not connect. As soon as I plug in the phone to the USB, it freaks out and keeps popping up and closing the USB Mass Storage screen. I've tried to connect with USB debugging checked and unchecked and still no luck. I even went and uninstalled HTC Sync and all the drivers and reinstalled but still won't connect. I even tried different USB ports but still the same thing. I'm running CM10.1. Anyone have any help they can give me?
