Device Name keeps changing - Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General

Hi,
I have a TyTN ll on Orange(UK) and thanks to these forums all the orange rubbish has now gone!!
I have one issue in that the Device Name keeps changing to WINDOWSMOBILE## even though i keep setting it to a custom name.
Has anyone else had this problem or know how to resolve it?
Thanks in advance

Same Issue on one of my Tilts
Did you ever get an answer?
Thanks!

Thanks!

ActiveSync on PC used to do that to my Kaiser, but since I removed all devices in PC ActiveSync and set the name in Kaiser, it works OK now after connecting.

No i never got an answer. I left the device name to what ever it comes up with. I put the issue down to Syncing with 2 PC's

Have the same problem. To solve it, ensure you don't use underscore "_" on the device name. It works perfectly with mine.

Problems Updating ROM

Hello everyone,
I have problems updating my SPV M3000. I've been tryin' it for a month now but it just won't happen. Every Rom i download i get the same problem: I just follow the steps of the wizard. But when the installation begins, my device's screen flickers and then it looks like it starts to glow. At the same time my activesync connection drops. The PC gives the [ERROR 260] this makes sense because i lost the connection. Then i have to soft reset my phone. I have Sim and CID Unlocked the phone.
My current version is 1.3.1.13.
Can somebody please help me.
thnx,
Dennis
have you tried changing your use cable? Seems like it's the source of the trouble...

Have you tried flashing an "official" 2.xx rom?
--M
I did all of that... but still no succes.... Anybody have other solutions??
Thnx
Did you ever get your issue resolved?
I've got the same problem and I've tested my MDA with two seperate USB sync cables. Both sync with ActiveSync and actually transfer data with no issues, but I get the 260 error EVERY time.
Does anyone know if there is a MS service that needs to be running that maybe we're missing? I thought all of mine were, but might not be.
Any updated info would be WONDERFUL.
Read this, at the bottom of the file are the error-codes and try to use another USB-port (preffering at the BACK! of your PC)

Maybe try to use activesync 2,5 beta.
Actually, I have the most recent ActiveSync beta and all. And that nice ftp link doesn't work, which I've noticed seems to be the case most of the time.
Can I download that file elsewhere?
I've actually plugged the USB cable in every USB port I have to test that theory and still no-go.
I'm currently on the phone with T-Mobile PDA Tech Support ( BLECH! KILL ME NOW! )
If I get a solution I'll post it and a walkthrough on how to fix it.
Ok, so, just got off the phone with the T-Mobile PDA Tech Support people and here's the lowdown...
It's the phone itself. Somehow my phone is bugged, go figure. Sorry to break the news to the guy who started this thread, but hey, I'm getting a free T-Mobile Dash out of it

I Can't Connect my Tilt...HELP!!

I've searched for an answer in these forums and can't find one. I have tried some suggestions from here to no avail. Well...here's the problem. I've had my Tilt for a couple of months. All has been great and i love it...up until now.
I've put several roms on it and they've all worked fine. Got that down...I thought. I can't get activesync to see the tilt on any of my computers. It won't find it on the laptop I've been using to load. My desktop at work, that I've been using sometimes to load it, won't see it and it won't even connect on a new computer in my office with fresh ASync 4.5. Like I said....it has been working fine I just decided today to load a new Dutty rom and I can't even hook up. Wow....this is so aggravating. I've uninstalled and reinstalled several times. Activesync is still on the tilt too. I've killed the program in taskmgr. I've stopped all running apps in the tilt. I have 2 different cables also. By the way....I don't care to wipe it clean...if I need to. Any suggestions as to what I can do? If anyone's got any clues to what my problem could be I would be eternally grateful. Thanks in advance for responses.
Desparate!
Please help me....if you can. I know there's a tremendous amount of knowledge here. Surely someone's been through this same problem and was able to fix it. I've seen another post similar to this and he's not getting an answer to his problem either. If I we need to contact HTC....please recommend that. Some of you "tilt masters" please respond. Thanks in advance.
Also I had a similar problem and i had installed a blackberry program on my tilt. That created a connection problem between my tilt and the sync program and it couldnt see my tilt. I figured out that the blackberry desktop program thought it had dibs on my tilt because the bb was on my tilt. I removed the BB off my tilt it did a hard reset and then proceeded to manually remove every windows mobile device partnership there were many. Rebooted my computer and tried it again and it worked. You could try a hard reset and then and then use system restore to a few days before you had the problem and see if you can trick it.
I had this problem.
Hard-Reset fixed it
Thanks for the replies....I've tried the hard reset twice and that didn't work either. Have been on the phone with HTC support and we did several things. Still not working. He was supposed to call me back in 10 min but didn't for a couple of hours. Anyway...I've got to contact them back and take up where we left off. Surely we can get this thing going again. If HTC can fix it....no one can. When we get it up and going...i'll report back here for others future needs. The phone works great besides that!
Again thank....and anyone else have a suggestion.
Please respond to...

Check the USB pins on the unit, mine were bent down and did not make contact, i think from memory the 3rd pin in is the data connection.

att tilt gprs problem/solution

first of all, I want to say THANKS for this great forum, which has helped me greatly souping up my Tilt, solving problems, getting great CABs, and just general info.
I had to hard-reset (removing bloatware) my device a few times, once because of a faulty usb connector, and I couldn't sync anymore. so now I'm stuck only with bluetooth (still trying to figure out if I can hardSPL and load a new ROM via bluetooth...)
I'm not in the US, so I don't use ATT/Cingular. and I ran into connection problems using GPRS. had all the right settings, but just couldn't connect to my service provider.
of course I searched endlessly on these forums, but couldn't fix my problem. today, found and ran removeHiddenProxy4CWS_0522 cab in the \Windows directory, and everything worked perfectly !!
I don't know if this is a Tilt-specific thing or not, just wanted to help out anyone having my same problem, of using a diff provider than whatever came pre-loaded...

Wifi Problem Connection!!!!

I need some help, I upgrade my Rom to the Dutty's WM6.1 and the Radio to 1.58.16.27, but now my Wifi is not working, actually, find my router signal but it cant connect it, i dont know why, I already put it in Best perfomance but nothing happens.
Does anyone know what to do???
Thanks
Sorry about my bad english.
Did you go through the wifi set up?
Maybe you just need to type in the password for either PSK or WEP encryption.
Your english is just as good as mine so no need to appologize.
Have you tried another Access Point? I have posted in an older thread about this.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=376003
Not sure if any of this applies to you or not. Hope it helps.
thanks for your concern, i've tried 3 differents access points but nothing happens, in my wifi settings i can see my router signal, it says connecting, but stay connecting and never connects. the same happens to the other access points. it has the password writen and everything.
Do you have another solution maybe?
thanks
Did you type the password previously during set up?
Or when you were going through the setup, you see a bunch of asterisk (*)?
If its the latter... erase all of the asterisk (*) and retype the password.
thanks, but still having the same problem, is trying to connect but never connect it....
I dont know what to do now, I try everything!!!!
Possible fix
see my post here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2060140&postcount=83. I had the same problem as you. I think it has to do with some DHCP registry problem, but don't know much about registry settings so not sure.
Im trying but still happen the same thing, the arrows are going to the opissite directions that means that is trying to connect, but nothing happens.
thanks for that post, if anynoe has the solution please help me,
Do i have to try a different Radio?
please let me know
thanks
Maybe somebody with the same problem?? or any thread???
thanks
Does anybody has the solution or maybe something that i can try???
thanks
ooops delete
I had a problem like that when I tried to connect to my access point. I don't know for sure what caused it but it suddenly started working after toying around - one of the things I did was gave it a static IP address rather than using DHCP (which I prefer anyways tbh), it does indeed seem to be DHCP related.
I did the same thing, it connects to my router but i cant get internet (surf, messenger, weather, etc) , nothing, just its connected but nothing happens, maybe the radio version? i dont know what to do!
I still have the problem!!!!
Any solution please!!!!
I need some help
thanks
same problem here. wifi was working just fine yesterday. today, after charging over night, i try to connect to my network at home and it keeps saying connecting... but it never establishes a solid connection. also tried other available networks while i was out during the day, and it did connect, but then it couldn't access the internet, not even to update my weather on my today screen. haven't flashed recently, haven't hard resetted. only thing i did between the last time it worked and until now was active sync to transfer music from my computer to my SD card through usb (my card reader doesn't support SDHC) and charged it over night. I've transferred files from my computer to my phone in the past without any problems.
any help is appreciated!! thanks!

i hope this help... it's not a technical response, but good luck
this response is horrible, but i had the same problem. I changed my router and now it works fine. old: BUFFALO, new: BELKIN N1 Vision. I figured out that the unit has some intereference problems... my old BUFFALO work in another appartment well with my Kaiser but not at home... (tried moving BUFFALO from my house to another neighborhood house and works fin...)
it can't be the router that's causing the problem because it was working fine up until now. i've also tried other networks, and it will say that it is connected, but then i'll try to view a page and it won't load.
i've been using Dutty's WM 6.1 Rom that was released on April 9 and using the NIKI Radio 1.58.16.27 for about a week before this problem started also, just like jmcorral.

Same here. I think it's Dutty's rom...no offese to Dutty. I bet other people got it to work, but I've had Dutty's WM6.1 Hybrid and the NIKI Radio 1.58.16.27 and I've tried a bunch of other radios with no luck. I'm going to try and switch roms and see if that helps at all.

Wifi not connecting
Maybe this will help.
If you have Duty ROM, check that Network Plugin is not activated.
I also solved the same connectivity issue for a friend that is using the the ATT original ROM. The problem was the battery settings. It was set at maximum savings.
sorry for the noob question, but where can i find if the Network Plugin is activated?

Bluetooth not connecting via Microsoft sync on Ford vehicles

Every time I try to sync my AT&T Fuze with my Lincoln, I have to start over creating a new sync connect via Bluetooth. I didn't have this problem with my old AT&T Tilt. Does anyone know how to make this work properly?
I have the same problem with my Touch Pro & Altima 08. After making the first call via bluetooth I have to start over creating an new sync. I didn't have this problem with my old O2 Atom Exec
I had this consistently happening with my Dell D620 until I loaded the (unofficial) follow-up to .Net3.5 Mobile: Microsoft_[1].Net_Configuration.CAB (have .Net 3.5 on my TP)
Afterwards, my issue disappeared.

Where did you download this from?
i think the bluetooth on the fuze is dodgy cuz i couldnt even connect to my g/f Sprint Mogul to send her a ringtone, both phones pop up a message saying unable to communicate with device or something like that, i know its not my g/f phone cuz i have connect her cell to her laptop manytimes but i havnt really used my cellphone *The Fuze* bluetooth much.
Same issue, my wife's navigator has the same issue. However I had this installed (LINK)
But on my neighbors Ford Fusion, no problem at all.

1'st post.
Microsoft.Net
Microsoft.Net CF 3.5 fixed the problem as well as several other problems I was having on the Fuze. I highly recommend that everyone download a copy of this and install it on your devices. I think it will solve most of our problems.

Are you referring to the actual .net 3.5 CE, or the Config fix/mod cab I posted a link to?
The actual from Microsoft's website.

I don't have that problem. I send and receive bluetooth files fine. Since you admitted you don't do it often, I'm going to side with user error.
While not a TP/Fuze, my touch did this in a rental i had. I ended up just deleting EVERY paired device and starting from scratch. Worked fine since.
The problem came back yesterday. It appears every time you restart the car, Microsoft Sync doesnot see the FUZE until you go into the FUZE's bluetooth and tell it SET AS HANDS FREE. I do not know if this is a FUZE problem(Bug) or a Microsoft Sync problem. It seems that it's a FUZE BUG! How do we get it fixed?
Hey there everyone, I posted on another tread about this issue, and I think I resolved it. Happy bluetoothing:

I was having a problem not unlike yours, where I pair it the first time, and all is well, and the next time it doesn't do anything. I fiddled with my car's bluetooth (BMW ULF), and a headset and they would connect, after fiddling, but just not on startup. I finally determined that it appeared that the phone was not setting up a keepalive with the paired object. I found two reg keys in the bluetooth stack that were relevant. I changed them, and it now works exactly as you would expect every time!
Keys:
HKLM/Software/Microsoft/Bluetooth/Audiogateway
ConnectHFOnCall=0
The default is 1, which instructs to only connect on a call
PowerSave=0
The default is also 1, but this makes bluetooth be "awake" all the time
Change the settings, soft boot and you shoudl be good to go!
Hope that helps
