Hello guys,
I was wondering if you could help an extreme newbie.
I just got my tilt a couple of days ago, and with the help of a friend i have installed Dutty's touchflow rom. My problem is the following:
I have a Sony Vaio laptop that connects to the internet wirelessly through my wireless router. My tilt also connects to the internet through the router. However if i connect the tilt to the vaio for an activesync or to charge, the wireless connection on the laptop crashes. It crashes even if the wifi on the tilt is turned off. It can only be restored if i disconnect the phone AND restart the computer.
Did anybody face a similar problem?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.
It's an activesync issue.
When not connected to the PPC , Right click on AS icon in the PC.
Select Connections.
on the bottom you will see.
"Allow wireless connection......"
Mark the check box and your good to go

Hey buddy,
Thanks very much for responding. Tried it but unfortunately no joy. Its like my laptop loses the ability to connect to the router. I can see the connection but it just stays there, tries to get an ip, gets one and then crashes again...
Any other ideas?
what nadavi said, helps when you have problems connectin at your phone not your laptop.
perhaps your problem hs to do woth your network-configuration. AS gives a bridged network-interface trough to your mobile phone, connected via AS.
eventually your real-network-interace-driver or something else has problems with thi network-bridging ... did you tried to install AS 4.2 instead of 4.5 or otherwise?

I bet you have a Intel 2195 or 2200BG wireless adapter in the notebook? There is a problem with some of the drivers for the adapter and Activesync that makes you wireless network disconnect when you plug your phone in for sync. I had the same problem on my former laptop, it went a way with a driver downgrade!!! if I remember correct
Another way of solving it was installing Trend Micro PC-illin 2007 Internet security. It installs some sort of driver that made it work, it sound crazy I know but it worked with that - I and more people that I know got it working that way but I dont´t like Trend Micros software
Hey easycure,
Thanks for this response. I took your advice and went the opposite direction. I do have a 2200BG adapter, but rather than downgrade, i upgraded the driver.
Worked like a charm. Thanks!!
@edi - thanks for your reccomendation too. In the end i did not need to go that way, but thanks all the same.

Yeah it might have been a driver update I did, it was two years ago I had that laptop so I cant remember exactly But I am happy that it fixed it for you - I do remember how frustrating it was
I am having the very same issue. When I connect my Kaiser via activesync the wireless status information immediately appears on my laptop. The internet connection then stops working or only occasionally works. Took me an age to find a related thread! I'm about to update the drivers for the 2200BG adapter so I hope it works!
Cheers

Can someone help me. I've been trying to connect my laptop through my Kaiser using internet sharing. All the connections have been made but the phone will not allow the connection to the internet just the local between laptop and phone. When I use my Kaiser alone the internet works great. What am I doing wrong?

I just tried this for the first time yesterday (usb) and it worked fine for me.
make sure active sync isnt running.
start up interent sharing, and hit connect before you plug the usb cable into your phone. If i dont do tha tthe connection fails sometimes. It should come up with 'check usb connection'. When it says that, plug in the usb cable, and you should be good to go.
I've tried the usb, but still the same thing; connection between Kaiser and laptop is fine but can't get access to the internet.
Hi All
After looking at this amazing application - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=427097 - I decided to install it, works great if im using the USB wire. But my problem is that Vista wont find my Diamond to connect it to a PAN, ive followed the information on that guide.
Ive tweaked my registry, ive also ran WM6BTPAN which doesnt seem to do much.
Ive also checked my MSI Btoes drivers on my pc. Im running Vista 32bit Business and its find actually pairing with my Diamond, but when it comes to actually setting up the pan, I just get that screen (image attached).
Anyone else having this problem?? or even better anyone else know how to fix this?
Thanks
I got the same problem with xp, too.
I have an Belkin USB adapter and I even started the bluetooth network from the pc with the Belkin software... and in "network connections", the icon looks like it has a connection, but the computer isn't receiving any packages (just sending packages).
So what do I have to do so my Vario IV will connect?
...
I just found out that there is no connection between my Vario Iv and my PC:
I turned my bluetooth on my phone off and let the PC connect with the bluetooth network and it says it's connected.
So, if anyone has an anwser to this problem, please help us.
Thx
Hi All
I'm at boiling point!
I have a new HTC Touch Diamond locked to the Orange Network and I am trying to unlock the phone. I have got the software to unlock it from this website (thank you very much) however I am having serious problems connecting my device to my laptop. I have installed the Active sync 4.5 software that came with the phone but when I connect my HTC to the laptop it is not registering at all with the computer never mind the Active sync software.
I have tried to uninstall and reinstall Active sync but to no avail. I have also disabled my antivirus software (AVG Internet Security). This is becoming very frustrating. I am aware that I can purchase an unlock code remotely but even if I do this there is still the problem of establishing a connection with my laptop.
Please if anyone can help me I would greatly appreciate it.

Hi Cyron_at
Thanks for replying. I should have mentioned that I had tried that. Still no joy. Any other suggestions?
uninstall activesync
install activesync
connect phone
wait 10 mins....
if still not connected, run activesync on ur phone and check connection etc.
have u charged the phone in the car?
Thanks for that. Will try to do that when I get home as my work computer is running on Vista.
No I have not charged it in a car.
I am downloading Microsoft Windows Mobile Device Center 6.1 Driver for Windows Vista at the moment. I'm going to see if i can connect here at work. Do you think i should try this or wait until i get home and try it on my XP laptop? Could this cause problems switching between the two?
shouldn't cause a problem.
i asked about charging in the car, as there is a generic problem with HTC phones which means that if they are charged in a car whilst the car is being started a high current can blow the USB circuit, meaning it will charge, but not sync.
worth keeping in mind
Hey Mugggle
Have finished installing Mobile centre for vista and I'm experiencing the same NO SYNC problem. Does you earlier suggestion of leaving the phone connected for 10 min apply to this software?
By the way thanks for the Car tip!
not sure, it usually applies to slower PCs, as it has to load the drivers, which can take a while
make sure you've fully uninstalled active sync from ur laptop, it doesn't like being installed in parallel to mobile device centre
I will try that at home. do you have any suggestions on how to get my phone synced using vista? I;m still having the same problems.

That would be an overvoltage, not current. However, the USB adapter should have some regulation of the input voltage. So I am a bit skeptical, even though it could be a potential risk, no doubt about it.
My situation:
I use ROM 1.93
I charge my HTC Diamond Touch often in the car. It's connected while I start the car.
I had no sync problems when the phone was new.
Sync didn't work at all after some weeks.
File transfer via USB is no problem at all.
Since 1.93 seems buggy with a string of problems I was getting desperate to update the ROM. With no Sync it's not that easy. So I tried a direct motherboard USB port, plus a very short 20cm USB cable - and it worked!
If nothing sync, try that rear PC USB port and get those ultra short USB cable.
Interestingly, sync works again with any port and any cable with ROM 2.03.831.2 WWE
Firewalls & Ports
Make sure you have windows firewall settings all disabled. I had the same issue... fixed when I turned the firewall off.

do you mean this in real?
i just realized that i yesterday did charge the phone in car and today it is not sync at all!
it's a warranty issue?
because the phone is useless
thank you
I'm having the same trouble, My XDA vario 3 (t-mobile in UK) charges via the USB cable only. My home and work PC's are not picking up the connection. Not even to view file contents via explorer.
What can I do to fix this, as I've preformed a hard rest in the hope of solving this problem and now have a blank phone.
I've not charged my phone in a car. But t is around 18 months old.
My computer didn't find my Diamond after I hardreseted it so I had to reinstall Active Sync to get it working again. Strange that this didn't help you.

Hello, I have a problem when I try sharing my PDA's HSDPA to my Computer over Bluetooth.
I often use the Internet Sharing Option on my Diamond to get Internet on my Laptop.
Yesterday I tried the first time to share the Connection over Bluetooth (usually I use the USB)
But it doesn't work!
I open a Bluetooth PAN on my Diamond, then I connect my PC to the PAN.
Everything seams working well! My PC shows me that he is connected to the Diamond's Network Access, Signal Strength: Good, Packets are comming trough...
Now I try to open the Internet (IE 6), but he cannot reach any page! Only sometime he opens a bit of a site... But most times he tells me that there is nothing avaiable...
When I connect my Diamond then on a USB cable and I try it... it works fine...
What am I doing wrong???
P.S.: There is no Firewall, neigther an Anti-Virus
bump or whatever ? help ???
i'd also like to get the info on how to set up a pan on the diamond so i can use it with my oqo 0+
It seams like nobody has any help or anser for this? Is there anybody who shares the same problem?
you are not alone!
tho i'm far from being of any help as i have less of an idea than you!!
Diamond PAN
I have the same problem connecting using BT but it works perfectly using USB
Yep, a friend of mine has the same problems... do you think there could be a bug?
If it is in...
...Active Sync, I will try an older version just for tests
... the Diamond itself?? Don't know
... Windows, i did all Updates, nothing changed
.. Bluetooth Driver, try to update this one.
That are the things where the problem could be... Or are there any other ideas?
sharing internet?
hai,
using the internet from my HTC diamond via bleutooth pan was a breeze, just created a connection with my laptop, after that run "shared internet" and than "connecting" the phone to the internet i then connect using my laptap with bleutooth PAN network, and it always works, no problems...
odd i do all that but the pc can't connect to my diamond ! wonder if orange uk have disabled it somehow ?
quote:- after that run "shared internet"
aha this is my problem i dont have the shared internet program in my orange uk rom!
cab anyone please????
found one!
link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=420433
funny how searching the forum did'nt find this???!!!
just strting my little oqo .......................
connection ...........made............opening opera..................YES WORKS!!!!!!
WWWOOOOOOHHHOOOOOOOO!!!!!! (in a very english way of course ahem!)
Need to install the original Rom I think...
But normaly it has to be there... I don't think that Orange would disable that...
But I have another problem, everything is connected, status are all ok, but I cannot open any Site, but over usb cable it works fine...
Hi Guys
Just got the Diamond2 from devicewire, and I'm really pleased with it.
One thing that differs from my Touch Diamond is that when I try to use internet sharing my laptop* won't recognise it as a BT PAN device.
I realise this may be a bit premature, but has anyone else experienced this yet? Any fixes out there, or even fixes for the Touch HD which may be appropriate?
Thanks
Stoatie

I have this WM WiFiRouter and Access point (Wifi and BT) on all the time
Sorry just found !!! You now have buy before try version 1.30 had a trial !!!

Bluetooth PAN

I initially had the same problem until I realised I had to go into Internet Sharing on the Diamond2 and click connect once I had selected Bluetpooth PAN as the PC Connection. Once this was done I was able to join the PAN from my Vista laptop.
Hope this solves your problem.

I don't understand what you mean. Do you mean that you think I wasn't pressing "connect" to connect the two devices up?
Initially I paired the 2 devices and connected them via bluetooth. I then tried to join a bluetooth PAN from my laptop and it showed my diamond2 as a bluetooth access point. I pressed connect on my laptop and got an error message.
It wasn't until I realised that I needed to initiate an Internet Sharing connection from the phone first and then join the PAN from the laptop as well (connecting on both devices) that it worked. And it works fine.
Sorry if your problem is different.
