cant active sync and lost all sound after upgrade

H i hope someone can help i am quite desparate and frustrated now.
Three days ago i updated my tmobil mda vario to the cingular rom.
it was slow, so i downloaded the tmobile rom from this site and now the phone is even more slower than it was before. I had to update by doing a hard reset because active sync no longer works and :
theres no sound
And i have lost the ability to sync with my computer or laptop. I have tried syncing through usb and bluetooth and i have checked that all settings on active sync are correct. However whenever i plug the vario in active sync does not respond at all.
Please help I need to get my phone the way it was before.
thanks any help would be more than apreciated.

I can't connect to active sync

Hey everyone, i just was getting ready to update to the new core rom (from xplore 1.1) and i plugged in my Tmobile mda into my pc that is running xp, and it is not connecting. When i plug it in it like doesnt even try to find it. And when it does try to find it, it just says it can't establish connection with your item.
I was using xplore and this is the first time i had this problem ever. Ive flashed 4 or 5 times and this has never happened, and thats why im posting it in the wm6 forum.
Does anyone have any ideas? HAs this happened to anyone else?
Now i am back on the newest tmobile update, and it is still doing it. Also i installed the newest version of active sync. Still no go. Also i used shell tools to put xplore on my phone, could that have left out some active sync's files? (probably not, last time i put nottosmarts rom on here everything worked perfect.
ipl 2.26
spl 2.26
gsm 02.25.11
os 2.26.10.2
love you
umm....no one?
can't someone at least flame me or something? im still stuck

I can flame you , lol
If you can't connect, how did you flashed the latest TMobile ? I am not making fun, I really want to help.
i threw it in bootloader mode. It said usb in the bottom right hand corner. It's just that activve sync is not connecting with it. i wouldnt even care, but i think you need an active connection to active sync when you flash with shell tools, which is what i do.
update: i just succesfully sync'd to my laptop running windows vista.
anichillus, do you know if shell tools will work with the new way to flash with vista?
thank you so much for reponding, i really appreciate it...a lot lol
the only reason im doing this is to get to your rom!

I really really don't know that sorry ... I am using WinXP and not shelltool.
Also, why are you using Shell Tool ? Dont't you have G3 ?
Unlock it and easy as pie. I remember papamopps saying that it is possible to flash in vista ...but i don't remember anything about shell tool ...
BTW, you have ZoneAlarm ..or similar installed to the PC where you say that it doesn't connect ? Try and disable firewall ... antivirus ..stuff like that.
well i just don't want to void my warranty, but ill definitly try turning off all the firewalls tommorow when i get a chance, i think im just going to give it a go with shell tools right now and hope for the best
Thank you so much and if you ever need anything i would love to help you in return.
you're the best!
i have the same problem..active sync doesn´t find my wizard..but it´s charging normally, but active sync doesn´t recognize it or i don´t know..what should i do?? i didn´t do any change on my pc..and before it works good..
If you're using Microsoft's OneCare then you may have to enable the Allow ActiveSync to get it to work.
Start OneCare then click the "Change OneCare settings" link on the left
Click the Firewall tab
Click the Firewall connection tool button
Place a check in the ActiveSync/Windows Mobile Device Center" checkbox
Click Okay back to the main page
Hope this helps, but like Anichillus said, it could be any other firewall application blocking it...
yes! all i had to do was turn of norton for a bit and it instantly recognized my device. I was just so confused because this has never happened before and thats why i haven't thought of such an easy explanation. Thank you both for giving me your clear thoughts! lol
Another resolution idea
I had the same issue - I would plug the device in through USB into Vista Ultimate with no results other than the bing bong noise it makes on connection. Checking the device list showed the network pieces being added, but not the actual Wizard itself in the Mobile Devices section. I could not sync, it would not pair, etc, etc.
Resolution (on the Wizard):
1) Settings->Connections->USB to PC
2) Turn off "Enable advanced network functionality"
This of course will not be the resolution for everyone, but in case someone else sees this behavior, here is a list of the symptoms I saw:
1) Plugging Wizard in via USB causes Bing Bong noise
2) wmdc shows no connection
3) device manager shows no Mobile Devices section when connected
4) device manager network adapters may show mobile device services when plugged in
5) If connected in bootloader mode the device manager will show the mobile device
6) You can set up a bluetooth connection (if available on the PC) and sync properly with it
Cheers,
Shoogi
Shoogi, what an awesome first post! Worked perfect for me! Keep it up, great post and lots of help!
i have a problem that when I plug my device active sync connect it and charging starts but after a minute or so active sync disconnected and charging also stoped.
I have installed everything official > rom,radio,ipl/spl etc.
One Care made activesync almost unusable for me. I also had to reflash from THT's rom because I couldn't connect at all unless I hard reset. Makes no sense cause my husband can sync and he had the identical same rom.

Cingular 8125 not recognized by ActiveSync

hi guys i have the following problem
i just replaced a new LCD+touchscreen on my 8125 (G3) and i can't connect it on ActiveSync... it simply wont recognize it.. even before i changed it i wasnt able to connect ppc to computer... but when i attach the usb to PC i hear the voice of something connected on USB port, and than the ballon pops out and says me the device was not properly connected...

I cant do nothing, upload ROMs neither browse...

Which Windows are you at ? use winXP SP2,disable anti virus if any installed,also disable any firewall even windows own firewall.Disconnect phone from the usb cable and remove any sdcard if any.
Uninstall Active sync,Reboot Pc,open Windows Task Manager--->Processes Tab--->End wescomm.exe process.Reconnect phone via usb cable,get your phone into boot loader mode,check small usb appear a the bottom of bootloader screen and run the ruu...,hope it'll work out.
For Active sync connectivity,reinstall ,make sure no anti virus or firewall is running,connect phone with usb and let it synchronise.
Is your usb cable compatible,does it charge ?,if not,get a new usb cable. secondly, check if your mini usb port of your phone is working or it might be damaged.

Try this, on the 8125 run activesync, if you have partnerships there (IE. if the screed has "windows PC" on it), then go to "menu" on the lower right, then "Options" then select the "Windows PC" and delete it. Delete all partnerships that you have.
Then close activesync on the 8125 and go to "Start/setings/Connections/" and open your "connections". Do you have connections set-up? Make sure you have at least one connection set-up. Then close that and open your "USB to PC" is "Enable advanced network functionality" is the box checked? if it's not then check it (if it is then uncheck it), then connect your BSB cable and see if activesync on the PC will detect it.
If it does then set-up a new partnership.

not working crap, i think now i have a damaged miniUSB..

@asctony i cant open that link, can u plz send me the file on my mail?

Although it is possible to perform all actions with BT,like you do with normal active sync connectivity via usb,but No,You cannot flash a new rom through BT,you got to have a physical connectivity established between phone and your pc via usb and usb is shown at the bottom of the bootloader screen.Even during active sync connection,while flashing active sync is automatically disabled by the RUU and the flashing is still carried out by usb only.
crap... so the only logical solution that has left me is to give ppc to sum1 who will desolder/resolder the miniUSB connection back again... but still, i dont get it, i opened few times and i dont see any wire in miniUSB connector loosen or bricked... everything is fixed and on its place...

That's it !!!
there might be a tiny contact of the mini usb port which needs to solder,these tiny contacts are not sometimes visible to the naked eye,it can only be verified by checking with 'Voltmeter' and this can only be done by a person who has some knowledge about electronics repair and soldering.If you can do it,get a Voltmeter and can check the connectivity of all the five tiny connectors,good luck
dont worry i got this ****ing problem too
bootloader mode works but.....
I CANT CHARGE or CONNECT ON ACTIVE SYNC
BS!!!!!!
Mine will charge No Prob with both PC/USB Cable and Standard charger,PC takes FOREVER,It recongnizes a Smart Phone on both XP and Windows 7 but then says Not Installed correctly,No Drivers,ect. It has to be a Hardware issue with the Port or something,In "Comm Manager" there is always a "Check" Mark through the Activesync Selection,no way to get it to "enable" on the Phone Screen....Phone is not worth enough to hassle fixing it,it works fine,I have to use another phone to put stuff on my storage card,can I load windows 6.5 and unlock with the SD Card method?Thanks,Vegas

ive got the following problem:
me (or my ppc) is not able to connect with activesync...
wtf can i do??
plz help me, thx,

Install AS 4.5
Then connect your phone. Windows will first detect it as a new USB device and then AS will kick in and ask to set up a partnership.
Exactly what is going wrong with yours?
so, here we go:
ive got as 4.5 on my pc and ive recognized also that some other guys (even with older as) could connect to my ppc...
so, what is thie fckn prob??

(everythings translated by myself from german, plz ignore the faults)

i read that if you're using a usb hub it would not connect. you must have the usb cable connect straight to your pc's usb port.
and if nothing works the last solution is to hard reset your pocket pc for a frest start and see if it can connect then.

2nd that. Try another USB port on your PC. Sounds like there's either the driver missing (which should only be the case if you do not have Active Sync installed)
OR
try to disable the "Advanced network functionality". Can be found at 'Settings > Connections > USB to PC'. (Einstellungen, Verbindungen, USB zu PC oder so).
Do you have some sort of firewall software?
like, ZoneAlarm or antivirus with firewall?
disable them or allow the port as trusted and you should be fine
jeah,
thanks for this many posts, but ive got all these probs outa my way, these are all the things ive thought they may disturb the connection... but (im sorry) theyre no solution for my fckn prob, as told, my ppc connects to other pcs(with older as)but not to mine with the newest as ...
so, lets think how to manage it...
try rebooting the host PC or just kill mobsync.exe, wmdc.exe and WmdHost.exe in taskmanger. Then open Sync software again. Works for me.
thats an answer
thx a lot, ill try tomorrow...
all the wa<y, sometimes, when i stay the ppc connected and reboot my pc it works, but dont sync anything, its just "connected"...
ill try and post my answer soon.

I think i have found a solution for you.
Follow:
Start Menu > Configuration > Connections > Click on the icon called "USB à ordinateur" (my phone is in french so i think it will be for you " USB" or "USB to PC")
It's written: Choose the connection type to PC
Select active Sync and uncheck the case just under (it is " activate the feature advanced networking")
And that is !!
TRY and say me..
Hi the diamond is my first PPC as well. I connected it in my PC and was able to use it as a HD. however i am having doubts of just unplugging it afterwards but i did just unplugged it after use.
On my second attempt. Diamond notified me if i will sync or use the HD i accidentally hit sync. but it required a password. I unplugged it and the problem beginned.
There is no Start Menu. so i did the soft reset on the red button below the stylus. It worked now, however the home screen does not have the Large Digital Clock now.
Can someone help me to display it back i have tried to check it in the Today menu. however it is still not appearing.
Pls.. help a new PPC user. Thank you.

Try the search engine before you post, recently there where alot of topics on ActiveSync not working. Anyway, the way your PPC will act when you connect it to a USB port can be setup in setting, connections, usb to pc. Mark Diskdrive or ActiveSync.
There you should also unmark the advanced network functionality. Check it off and try again.
Rgds,
Thanks, by the way do you know how to display the Large Digital Clock again in Home. It was lost after i tried to soft reset my hanging Diamond.
Do you think it will appear again if i do a Hard Reset? Thanks.

hi ever1 noob question

I bought blueangel and Im a complete n00b i must admit. Ok so i heard that i can upgrade wm and i would like to read complete step by step text about that + i need files files for that. Thanks in adv
btw can someone tell me how to setup wifi, my isp told me that i need to put ip in qtek... ????
and some1 pls tell me whats up whit led lights what does it means
ok, so ive read a little and now i have wm6 but I cant connect it to a active sync... whats up with that?
I have activesync 4.5 and cant connect, i have read all of possible solutions and i didnt solve the problem, is there some other program that could be in the same use???
is there some1 who can answer me???
Hi Sorry someone hasnt answered you
There could be lots of reasons why the device isnt synching - have you restarted the PC and the XDA?
When you put the PDA in the cradle what does the PC say does it detect the PDA at all? - It would help if you can tell us
1) what version of the WM 6 rom you have
2) exactly what device you have and what sort of cradle /cable you are using to synch
PS there are good people on here and given time you will get the help you need
Kind regards
John P
i found a problem in firewall!!! its working now, but do u know some good links for games programs and rest??
