if I ad my HTC diamond Touch too my windows vista laptop with Bluetooth,
my laptop want´s to install a driver "Bluetooth Peripheral divice"
but my laptop does not find this driver.
My Laptop is a Dell xps m1330
need help please, sorry for my bad Englisch
did u ever find a solution to ur issue i have the same problem
hmm, i just got an XPS M1530, ill have a look now
(first time using bluetooth on it )
my laptop found the driver, maybe check on the dell website to see if there are any updates? i got my laptop on friday so i'd like to hope i have the latest software, maybe yours is outdated or something?
F**** Vista
same problem but other machine(I think that the bluetooth dongle is the same- Broadcom) : Samsung R560, Vista 32bit Home Premium
When I try to connect my Diamond, Vista asks me for Installing Bluetooth Peripheral Device...There´s no possiblitlity to find one at the computer and even the German HTC Support doesn´t have any idea (but the Support-Guy didn´t seem to have any knowledge about pc´s )
The strange thing is, that the Laptop and the device are connected after entering the access-code, but no services are available.
Therefore guys, you´re my one and only hope (yes, I also accept an advice of a woman ) Please help me....
Hey Guys, I am new to XDA Forums. Its a great place to be for Windows Mobile Users. Coming to the point, here is the solution for the problem that all of you are facing. I am telling the steps according to Windows Vista as i am running it as my only OS. If anybody faces this problem on Windows XP, i hope the steps will be quiet same, otherwise contact me by PM.
The Bluetooth peripheral device that Vista detects is the "Windows Mobile-based Device Support" device. It should be configured properly when Windows Mobile Device Center (Sync Center) is installed but it somehow gets messed up. I think Micorosoft will soon release a patch for this problem. Anyways for now, do this:
1. Install Windows Mobile Device Center that comes on the Companion CD with your phone if you haven't already done so. Even if you have installed it, open Programs and Features from Control Panel and repair the installation. I am using a HTC P3400i and my CD comes with versions for XP and Vista both.
2. The first step may solve your problem automatically. If it doesn't, however, Right Click on Computer Icon and Choose Manage.
3. Goto Device Manager. You'll see an Unknow Device named Bluetooth Peripheral Device. Double Click it to open its properties.
4. Click "Reinstall Driver" on the first tab.
5. Click "Browse My Computer for Driver Software" button.
6. Click "Let Me Pick from a List of Device Drivers on my computer".
7. Now the next page will show a list of drivers with Company Names in one list and Drivers in another. In the Company List choose Microsoft Corporation, not only Microsoft. Please confirm this twice that you dont choose Micorosoft but Micorosoft Corporation.
8. Now in the drivers list there may be one or more drivers with the name "Windows Mobile-Based Device Support" with different driver versions. I cant tell you which will work for you, but start with the newest version.
9. Click next. Ignore any warnings and keep pressing next and then Finish at last. If all goes well, the last screen will show the message that device driver is properly installed.
If the last screen shows that device is nto configured properly or The device could not start then repeat the above steps choosing a different driver version this time.
I sincerly hope that this will solve the problem that all of you are facing. It has worked for me, atleast.
Hey, many thanks for you turtorial !
Unfortunately, it didn´t work for me, my pc can´t detect the services of my HTC TOUCH DIAMIND and also other way round. Hope that windows will fix this bug because it is neither the fault of my bluetooth dongle nor the one of my device...
Bluetooth problem "Bluetooth Peripheral Device" driver Fixed Windows 7 and Vista.
Thanks a lot, it works on my Windows 7 and also without problems in windows vista.
Your method worked on Windows 7 x64, thanks.
still can't fix it
I have win7 x64, but I can't find "Windows Mobile-Based Device Support" driver.
I've repaired WMDC. And I've tried other drivers. I'm attaching a screenshot. Most of the device is accounted for, but the "Bluetooth Peripheral Device" is not working for my HD2 or my TP2. I know this is the Diamond Thread, but I'm sure it's going to be the same solution in the end.
I've not had many problems between my laptop and the 2 phones, but under certain circumstances, then don't want to communicate. I usually find a "work around", but if anyone has other ideas... I'm all ears.
so I did all of this and the first driver listed worked. the problem is that I still cannot get it to connect to the internet.
just to give the pertinent info.
I have an HTC t-mobile us version hd2. I am trying to get the cell phone to act as my internet when I am using my laptop.
at home I have wi-fi and when I am out and around I will use the hotspots when available but at times I have neither so I would really like to have the phone get my laptop onto the internet.
the above link got me the device driver but I still cannot get it to connect to the internet.
my laptop is running windows 7. can anyone help?
thanks in advance.

you lost me on 7. after "Let Me Pick from a List of Device Drivers on my computer" it asked me to select device type. i selected mobile devices. then it took me to the window to pick the manufacturer. i found HTC among the manufactures, but all drivers were for USB Sync. could you clearify 7 and explain how to get to 8 please.
THANK YOU!
why dont you get the app that allows you to use your phone as a wifi hotspot then you can just link to it via wireless saves you the hassle sorting all the bluetooth stuff out then
@badguy8: got similiar problem on W7 but now it's fixed:
7a) choose All devices - instead of Mobile Devices
7b) instead of Microsoft Corporatin choose (Standard Windows Mobile devices) - yes it's written inside () so you'll find it at the beginning of the list
8) ...there you can find the required driver and continue as above
...
hope that helps
EDIT: it only worked when my HTC HD2 had been connected via USB during driver instalation....
solution here in this link. it worked for me !

great
it works on win7 x64 realy great
working here on win7
If you are using windows 7 and trying to connect your mobile phone as the bluetooth device then it might show blutooth peripheral device driver error as Windows 7 does not support A2DP and mobile phones generally come with A2DP. But third party software can connect your bluetooth mobile phone with windows 7. One of such freeware software is Medieval Software Bluetooth FTP.

Have Windows XP SP3 and Microsoft ActiveSync 4.5 installed.
Problem is that the ActiveSync will not connect to the Diamond via USB. These are the symptoms on connecting the USB cable:-
1) The "Connect to PC" window pops up on the Diamond, asking whether I would like to ActiveSync (sync with Outlook) or Disk Drive.
2) I choose either one and Diamond pops a dialog to declare that the device is connected.
3) ActiveSync on my pc goes into a "connecting..." attempt, but eventually throws out a "ActiveSync cannot connect to the Windows Mobile powered device" msg.
4) Diamond goes back into its Today screen, nothing happens.
I have tried :
1) disabling/uninstalling my firewall
2) checking/unchecking the Start->Settings->Connection->USB to PC->
"Enable advance network functionality" checkbox
3) Microsoft ActiveSync 4.2
4) a fresh install of windows.
****while I was at this I did manage to get ActiveSync to respond/connect seemingly for a while, during which I recall she popped up a msg saying that since I don't have MS Outlook installed, if I do proceed I can't sync contacts etc. I clicked cancel thinking I should install MS Outlook first since I do want to sync contacts, and I never managed to see this msg again****
Sorry for the lengthy post, appreciate any responses/help from gurus; noob.
I had the same problem with u also at 1st than reinstall Microsoft ActiveSync 4.5
& tick Enable Advance network functionality
now ok liao
think u got to restart pc after u install Microsoft ActiveSync 4.5
Thanks but doesn't solve my problem, still.
Can I check what does you guys' Diamond show up as under Control Panel->System->Device Manager? If you look under Network Adaptors does it show up? Mine only shows up under Windows CE USB Devices->Pocket PC USB Sync. I recall that it should show up under Newwork Adaptors too?
forget to ask u did u install the prog for desktop which come with the cd?

Damn found those CDs. But after installing the Outlook 2007 Trial, still nothing happens. What program for desktop should I be installing? The other CD seems to only contain those like applications and should not affect me?
sorry i forget wrongly.. try to install again & restart ur pc.. see how.. maybe restart ur diamond also
same problem here also

hello..i have the same problem..regardless of what i try it just wont sync..doesnt even
register ive connected my phone..installed..uninstalled..restarted the lot..so any ideas ?
i'm having similar problem. i'm using win xp sp2 and active sync 4.5. when i plugged my diamond to usb, the pc just showed "usb device not recognized" and it was recognized as "unknown device" in device manager.
i tried to uninstall the "unknown device" and reconnect diamond again. it worked but only once. after disconnect and reconnect again, it failed
i've tried using same cable and port for cruise and everything went smooth. dunno what it is...
replying back to my own thread.... i eventually managed to get it to work simply by changing the USB port I was using, not sure why at all.
I just got my diamond connected to my pc successfully. I simply used another usb cable.
Seems diamond is more sensitive to cable quality than other HTC devices.
HTC Diamond, problems with Windows Vista
I have so much problems syncing the Vista with the HTC Diamond. It took me one whole night and the program shows that it is halfway through the hotsync but nothing else happens. Uninstall and reinstall the Active sync programme on my Vista several times. Finally it works. The next day when I did a hotsync with my office computer nothing happens. After that when I got home Vista does not sync with my Diamond again. I do not know the problem is with Vista or my HTC Diamond... I wasted so much time troubleshooting..
I've found the solution. It had nothing to do with
Vista or with WMDC 6.1 it was a setting on my HTC S710. I removed the
following setting:
Step 1: Press Start
Step 2: Select settings
Step 3: Select (6) Connections
Step 4: Select (0) More
Step 5: Select (1) USB to PC
Changing the type of USB connection your device uses can help with problems
connecting ActiveSync.
Step 6: Disable the option - Enable advanced network functionality
Step 7: Press done 3 times
Step 8: Return to main screen.
Step 9: Uninstall unrecognized USB device in device manager (on PC)
Step 10: reboot Phone and reconnect
Hi, in my case it was the USB cable. I replaced the one I used for all my other WM devices before and now even the Diamond can connect.
Cheers,
Derek.
PS: problem and solution seen on both Vista and XP

Work for me too.
Tnx!
Hmm for those that tried and suddenly u got it once,but after that u disconnect and it disappear dont do anything extra!!!
Cos i got the same problem too! instead try to connect and remove it till u get it to sync again. It takes me the most 2 tries to get it to sync though..but if u try like maybe 5-6 times and it dont work..then i cant help sorry.
Btw i'm on Vista Home Premium 32 Bit.
This was what actually happened...i post this in another forum where people are having problems too.
"Hmm me having problems with syncing HTC diamond just now also. I'm on Vista Home Premium 32-Bit. I downloaded and installed the Window Mobile Device Centre(WMDC) 6.1 as they asked me to. WinXP its AutoSync 4.5. I connect and kind of expected this stupid syncing problems will happen to me like many others..zz.
I keep on trying to play with the checkbox in the USB to PC settings(To go there its Start>Settings>Connection Tab>USB To PC), people were saying if u uncheck the box it will sync already.But now my box is checked and it still can sync
Finally i got really fed up and piss..so i uninstall the stupid WMDC program totally without even plugging out the USB cable from my Diamond.Then i restart my pc, and i went to restore the USB to PC settings to ActiveSync with the tick in the checkbox. When Vista startup, i went for 1 last try haha...i just connect the diamond to my PC via the usb cable,and wow all the drivers start to install...and it sync LOL!!! And i go to control panel and was puzzled when WMDC was there even though i uninstalled it !!
And now its just sometimes i plugin it never detect but if i plug in and out ard 1-2times again it sync! I'm a happy man now"

Yes - that's it.
I had the same problems - ActiveSync worked worser and worser - and last week no synchronisation was possible at all.
ActiveSync doesn't open or when it's opened - the PC-ActiveSync stayed grey...
Now - new Cable - not from HTC - and it works fine from the first time on

I'm using XP SP3, ActiveSync 4.5.0 and it works fine. Of course after UNticking (disabling) the advanced network functionality. This advanced network functionality is designed for Vista, not for XP&ActiveSync.
Device manager:
In Device Manager I have the device listed with a separate entry directly from the root called "Windows CE USB Devices" and not under Network or other section. The driver provider is Microsoft and driver version is 4.0.4232.0 (06.10.2004). The driver file is wceusbsh.sys.
See the attached files.
I just don't remember from where I downloaded the driver, but for sure I did not used a CD/DVD delivered with Diamond.
issues synchronising
so i'm using activesync 4.5 with XP SP2 (i think) and i cant get my device to synchronise.
i connect it to the computer and it connects perfectly (i can explore the device and install files on it from my comp and all). It then starts trying to sync, however it never does. After an extended period of time it says "waiting for network" and then just stops synchronising - without actaully syncing any of my files! on the device it says "the server could not be reached. This could be caused by temporary network conditions" as the result and gives a support code of 0x80072EFF. it reports nothing ever synced.
It syncs with another computer in the house nicely -the comp is however ancient and we are getting rid of it! I'm sure its just a setting but i cant find it! Anyone?
Cheers guys!
Issue solved!
Not to worry i found the issue!
if this happens to anyone else this is the fix i found
"Fellow frustrated users I have worked out this issue. What happens is if you restore your computer or change files or link to another computer, Activesync creates multiple datasets on the device which must confuse the program.
With the phone disconnected from the computer, open Programs, ActiveSync, Menu, Options. If you use the scroll down bar, you will find all the datasets. I deleted all the datasets and let ActiveSync create a fresh connection."
Hiya got a Touch Diamond yesterday, first smartphone and very pleased with it. Only issue is getting Windows Mobile Device Centre working on Vista, using a 64 bit version, it comes up with found new hardware after I've plugged it in and loads Windows Mobile Remote Adapter driver for it, then nothing. If I open WMDC it says not connected. Set it up for active sync, all the right boxes are ticked and running 64 bit version of WMDC. One thing I did notice was when I tried this on a laptop at work running 32 bit Vista was after it installed the Windows Mobile Remote Adapter driver, it then installed the HTC Touch Diamond driver, which my PC doesn't.
My suspicions are that there isn't a 64 bit driver available for the phone, anyone else had the same problem or managed to sort it?

HI i have vista x64 SP1 and no problems with my diamond...
here a screenshot about diamond drivers on my pc
http://img402.imageshack.us/my.php?image=driversdiamondph8.jpg
if you have any problems i will post you my drivers
With Vista 64bits sp1 I've only a bug with icon : I cannot have diamond's icon, just generic, but no problem with activesync !!!
Weird, my OS must be playing up then, have installed WMDC from 2 different sources now, strange. If you could send me those drivers SMASH1902 it would be much appreciated
I'm also using Vista 64 bits Ultimate with SP1 and no problems so far. It even shows a beatiful pic of the Diamond

Same version as me, Ultimate SP1, like I said had it working on the 32 bit laptop at work, icon and all in Computer (does look very nice), cannot for the life of me work out what's causing the problem
Also having no problems, on Vista SP1 x64.
Cheers SMASH1902, unfortunately no change, added thm to system 32, had 2 of the 3 already, plugged the TD back in and choose active sync and nothing, starting to do my head in.
Here's a link to a screen shot of my Device Manager atm if it helps http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v201/runebinder/dev.jpg

uhm...have you just tried to change usb port?
Yup tried 3 different one's, still not connecting
I'm on Vista 64 ultimate SP1, and my problem is that my diamond can connect to my computer (WMDC show the device picture), but it tell me that there's a probleme with connection (unplug, replug, blah blah...).
So I can acces my device, but can't synchronize with outlook.
If I uninstall the device under device manager, it seems that Vista can't find or install Generic RNDIS driver... I can see the icon in the taskbar turning and turning, but never stops...
Just a thought, don't know if this has any bearing on anything, but as it installs as a network adapter does it have an APIPA IP address (starts 169.254), on the machine's that are synced properly?
Works here on vista64
How about making a new activesync profile on the vista64 pc? Should work. Connect, then create activesync profile.
How do you do that?
vista x64 sp1 & new Diamond 30/07. phone wouldn't connect a couple of times but seems to be behaving now.
Here's my devices complete with a missing driver XD
http://i509.photobucket.com/albums/s336/cowhopper/myputer.jpg
Found out the culprit in the end, using AVG IS and found that if the AVG firewall was active when I first connected the diamond (found this out via a couple of reinstalls), then the system would not detect it after installing the mobile adapter. If I then turned off the firewall it wouldn't look for new hardware and nothing was listed in Device manager. Tried connecting the diamond up before installing AVG and synced first time, however whenever the AVG firewall is on it will lose sync, can get it to resync now though if I turn it off and use the windows firewall.
Have tried what is suggested on the support FAQs on their site but now the firewall won't turn back on!
Managed to get AVG firewall restarted and now it's syncing fine. In case anybody needs the fix;
* Open AVG.
* Open menu Tools -> Firewall settings.
* Expand the profile you are using from the Profiles section.
* Select the Applications item.
* In the Applications double click on the Various System Services application.
* Click the Add button in the section Application detail rules.
* Click Move up button until the new detail (e.g. '13') is in the first place of the list.
* In the section Defined services please tick the ActiveSync service.
* Select Allow for all under the Detail action option.
* Confirm the new configuration by clicking the OK button.
LIFESAVER!! Thanks very much!!
Hi there
downloaded a rom with came with modem link program. Then I active USB in that it make Vista demand something called "Generic Serial driver".
Is that a HTC Modem driver?
By the way have tried tried to engage a Bluetooth network something called PAN. But VISTA your device does not support Bluetooth PAN. Is that true that the X1 doesn't support Bluetooth PAN?
A lot of questions All those belong in this forum.
At least, upgrade your WMDC to 6.1. Without that update, both Vista and Windows 7 will have connectivity issues.
Do a google and some Microsoft download page will turn up I guess.
If you have x64, make sure you pick the corresponding update.
had same issue today... just plugged my x1 via usb. Did windows update and thats it

WU didn't find any driver for that device. Whats the exact name of device which I need to driver for?
U have to let Vista (or Windows 7) update drivers thru WU which if I can remember is off by default?
And why would one want old drivers from MS when there's newer from the OEM?
Anywho, Google search for WMDC 6.1 led me to http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=46F72DF1-E46A-4A5F-A791-09F07AAA1914&displaylang=en which is the page for "drvupdate-x86.exe".
You need a "Genuine Windows" to download it.
I thought this was a forum for Windows Mobile, not for general use of a computer No offense, dude.
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???
Hello guys,
I own a htc diamond 2, but recently had to format my computer and installed windows 7 (x64). After this installation and Microsoft office 2007, i installed Windows Mobile Device Center, but when i connect the phone to the computer it installs the update, but does not detect the device thereby precluding their synchronization. I've uninstalled and reinstalled office and windows mobile device center, but the computer still does not detect the equipment. I already consulted the manual, but nothing can cause the equipment to be detected.
Can any one tell me what i'm doing wrong?
Before this installation the computer was running Windows 7 (x86/32) with the same office and all was well
Thank you
This is strange. I own a 64Bit Win7 Pro which doesn't make any trouble.
1st thing I would try is to connect the phone again while being logged on as an administrator, maybe you are a normal user and not allowed to install drivers or something similar.
2nd thing i would try is to delete all active sync connections on PC and on your device. then restart everything and connect them new.
3rd thing to try out is to deactivate under the "USB to PC" option the "fast data synchronization" feature.
4th possibility is to set up both, your computer and your mobile device totally new.
Cheers

Thank you for your reply.
I've run the installation has administrator, and i've the problems i present.
I will follow itch one of your advices trying to solve this problem.
At last if any one don't work i will try the EubeniaUSB or the drivers of the Active Sinc x64 that i've found on two post at the xda forum. (This will work? )
Thank you.
I had the same problem to start with i would suggest doing what i did and find/replace the usb cable as that was what was at fault on mine - these cables are quite cheap and the pins move too easily inside . Try changing to a different or new cable and see what happens
