Managed to connect windows vista to HTC Touch Diamond via the IVT BlueSoleil bluetooth stack.
But after some minutes the activesync connection drops off, is there a way to avoid this behaviour?
also, and that goes for PC<->USB<->HTC, how someone removes the annoying windows mobile device center window from always poping up on a sucessfull connection? Theres a Windows Mobile Device Center Autoplay key on reg but... what to do it ?!

Hello,
I got my Kaiser on Sep. 10th and have been learning it since. I am new to Windows Mobile (using 6). I have previous experience with Palm software (Treo 650 last & first PDA).
I have not been able to synch my PC to the Kaiser to yet. Synching pictures, music, TV is not an issue because Windows Media Player is working. It's the Contacts, Notes, Tasks that I cannot synch.
When I open the Windows Mobile Device Center the Connection Settings window opens up with the Allow USB & Bluetooth Connections radio buttons. When I hit OK with both Radio buttons selected (USB & Bluetooth), that's it, the window closes and there's no Windows Mobile Device Center that opens up. Task Manager shows no open Windows Mobile Device Center application but does show a Windows Mobile Device Center process, wmdcBase.exe.
What am I missing here? Please help, 4 days & I still do not have my Contacts in this phone.
Thanks,
Phil
Check your firewall. I was having problems, getting stuck on synchronizing and never getting pass that. Funny thing is that my Tmobile wing was working just fine, but when I plugged in the Tytn II, it wouldn't sync.
I got that problem once, when I installed the ActiveSync 4.5.
The Kaiser could not synch with the PC (WinXP).
Here what I did :
- Unplug the Kaiser
- Reinstall ActiveSync 4.5
- Reboot PC
- Soft-Reset the Kaiser
- After both booted up
- Connect the Kaiser to the USB
- Wait ... and wait ! Sometimes it slow
- Finally, it synched
I have just got my Vario III but am having problems setting it up to be used as a wireless (bluetooth) modem for my laptop computer. I am running Vista Ultimate and have not installed any driver software for the phone.
Can anyone please assist?
Wireless modem using Vista and TyTN II
First you should create a partnership between Vista and TYTN II. Then you run the Internet Sharing using Bluetooth and choose the "Connect To" menu at start menu and select connect to a Bluetooth PAN. You should see your mobile phone in the list. Just click connect. Boom !!! You're connected !
BT PAN
I can get Bluetooth Internet sharing to work on my AT&T device it is just a bit clumsier than by USB. With USB I just launch the Internet Sharing app on the Tilt and select PC Connection via USB. I then get an immediate 3G data connection on my laptop. Cool. As others have stated to tethering or extra data plans required.
To get this to work via Bluetooth I must do the above but select BT AND then connect the Network Access Point connection in my BT connections from the PC side. Isn't there some way to get this down to a single connection initiated solely from the Tilt side?
BTW: AT&T Tilt device and ROM, Toshiba BT stack, Windows XP SP2.
Hi all,
My HTC diamond that used to sync with active sync on win xp wont connect to my visat home premium laptop.
I've tried tweaking the firewall (even turning it off) and still no luck - both norton and windows firewall
Tried the dvmgmt.msc things too with no luck
Any other ideas??
anyone?
I found that problem too.
Go to task manager and close instances of mobile device centre and Windows Media as this seems to play havoc with USB sync.
Take your device off of the USB cable, fire up a fresh instance of WINMO device centre and it should detect it (after selecting 'ActiveSync' on your device).
Good luck
Jamie
what I have had to do is delete the diamond profile with out the diamond connected. restart your diamond then reconnect. I think it is a problem between activesynch in xp and winmo in vista. But I have kaiser which I use for work and I have no problems connecting to activesynch or winmo.. go figure...also if you have tasks selected it won't finish synching for some reason god knows why.......
Worked for me
Try going into the "USB to PC" settings on your phone and unchecking "Advanced Network Functionality". I couldn't connect in vista before disabling that.
Hello,
I've never managed to get my Diamond sync'd with my Vista laptop using a cable but if I use bluetooth then it always seems to connect so if you have bluetooth on your pc then i'd try that and see if it works.
I tried all the usual fixes including those listed above me and none of them worked. Then I read somewhere to uninstall device center go to microsoft and dl the latest version and then install it with the phone connected. That one worked.
How do you delete the profile? will I lose data doing so? same issue with my Touch Pro. uninstalled WMDC re-installed it. re-set all of the TP settings to factory(without restoring). Still doesn't work. Any other ideas?
does anyone know how to connect to Windows 7 having issues connecting
Connecting to Windows 7 is same as connecting to Vista. You do not need Microsoft ActiveSync 4.5 to connect. Under control panel – internet and network, look for the Windows Mobile Device Centre icon and click on that. This should trigger a step by step solution
Hope this helps

Hi there i am using the Mobile device centre and it’s just not seeing the phone, my Diamond is seen fine.... it’s getting annoying but i can’t seem to get it right, it does make a connection sound when plugging in the USB but there is nothing active to access the phone
The driver is not being installed correctly. Try running Windows Update AFTER connecting the Trinity, and see if that installs the driver.
If not, try turning off Advanced Network under USB to PC, on the phone, and try again.
Since I upgraded to Windows 7, I have been having a problem syncing my X1 with Windows Mobile Device Center over BT.
Everything works ok over USB first (Full sync), then I disconnect the cable.
Make BT "discoverable" on both computer and phone.
Open ActiveSync on the phone and choose "Connect via BT"
It says no device available and gives the option to pair with PC.
I do the pairing, both devices say pairing OK.
Then I choose "Connect via BT" again on the phone
The phone displays the usual:
1) Opening port
2) Connecting
3) Authenticated
In the end "Connected" is displayed as status.
With Win XP and ActiveSync 4.5 client that always meant - everything is OK, not so with Win 7.
On the PC:
Windows Mobile Device Center starts displaying "Connecting" (as soon as I press "Connect via Bluetooth" on the phone) and stays like that.
If I open "Bluetooth Devices" in my computer's BT settings and check the properties of "X1" I see that "Activesync" profile is checked.
What else can I do?
Additional info:
PC - Dell E6400 Win7 64bit
X1 ROM Agent_47 Valkyries 3.8.60TR
EDIT:
I got it working:
1) Deleted the relationship in ActiveSync (on X1) and WMDC (on the PC)
2) Deleted pairings form both devices in BT settings
3) Made the USB connection, got it syncing
4) Started the pairing in Activesync on the X1
5) Did not start the actual sync over BT instead restarted both PC and X1
6) After restart started Activesync on X1, it connected to PC and started syncing at last!
I'm still not sure that it will work tomorrow...
EDIT2:
Didn't even work after 5 minutes
Just disconnected and when trying to connect again... not working.
no problem for me on win 7
actually, when I had a problem with syncing over BT on Vista, I moved to Windows 7
You can try to completely remove Sync Center and WMDC or whatever could be removed, download installations from microsoft and try to reinstall. Don't forget to use windows update after reinstall. And remove all settings first, just for sure. Hope this will help you. It helped to me when my X1 suddenly stopped to syncing over BT on Vista.

Could you please post how long it takes on your system from:
Pressing "Connect via Bluetooth" on X1
to
"Connected" displayed in Windows Mobile Device Center?
That is if you start WMDC first and then start connection from X1.
On my system it sometimes takes a very long time and sometimes it's instant. Could be a problem with BT drivers on my Dell.

I've tried 4 times. 3 times it was exactly 30 seconds with unlocking X1, once it was even faster.
I have no problems with vendors BT drivers (ACER) and I had no problems with native Win 7 drivers right after fresh install.

It's a Dell laptop, so BT is integrated.
As for now it has been able to get connected most of the time.
But still is strange, with Win XP Activesync 4.5, when X1 said "Connected" after all the "opening port" etc messages - it really was connected at both ends, now I don't know what the X1 thinks it's "connected" with, cause the PC is still "Connecting"...
Have you reinstalled sync soft on you computer as I told you?
hey guys
i have the same problem buy on vista 32bit i was connecting just fine but now it connects on the x1 side while the WMDC doesn't connect giving me the error sign but the sync center is connected & i can browse my phone even install programs but no syncing i've tried EVERYTHING written in forums reinstalling programs on both sides, updating drivers, removing sd card, disabling firewall & antivirus ( i have norton suite) i don't know what to do???
