Hi guys,
I have problems with using my phone as a modem (with internetsharing). When I connect my phone to my laptop and turn internetsharing on, it says that the cable is not connected.
It worked 2 months ago, I didn't change anything in the settings (not in my phone and nor on the laptop)
I own a HTC Diamond and an Acer laptop (XP)

Hi i have problem, that i don't know how to solve.
I'm really new to MDA phones.
I got HTC diamond and i want to connect to internet via USB cable.
I got installed WMDC 6.1
When i plug htc in and make second option (to use cable as file transfer only, internet works just fine, because htc connect through Edge (wich i don't like it to do))
But when pick up choise to ActiveSync internet will not work. Synchronization works fine... everything looks to works fine... file transfering etc. but internet don't work.
(in WMDC i have got checked Allow data connection, when connected to PC, but nothing happened)
(tried almost all combinations in WMDC in connection settings)
so im really desperate, cause i really dont know what to do
Allmost the same problem
I have this to when connecting to my XP pc at home through usb cable.
I am not able to get an internet connection then.
(this is activesync 4.5)
When I connect to my VISTA pc at work, everything works fine, out of the box.
Any suggestions ?
Hello everyone.
I have recently purchased HTC Touch Pro in Vodafone my price plane includes unlimited data connection so I need to make best use of it right
What I want to do is to connect my HTC touch Pro to my laptop (through cable or bluetooth) so laptop will take data from my mobile phone.
Can you guys please let me know if this is possible.
Note: I know it is on Nokia N95 with Nokia software as I had one few months ago and it worked as charm
if your laptop is running windows all you need to have done is synced them once with activesync or windows mobile device manager...
then u should a program installed called internet connection sharing, just open it up, hit connect (make sure ur phone is already live on the internet), and hook up your usb cable to phone and that should work. there is an option for bluetooth too if your laptop has bt try it, mine doesnt so i dont know if thatll work
Works like a treat here. It's possible to do it trough bluetooth, but especially with HSDPA it drains you battery like hell, so i prefer to connect it with the usb cable, that way your TP charges while you are surfing.
OK I done it after few changes suggested on this forum.

PS. It still does not work on BT but who cares I got cable

I have a HTC Touch Diamond which I ActivSync to my PC with USB no problems.
I can also connect the phone to my PC wih bluetooth no problems.
However it will not connect to ActivSync using bluetooth I get this error

I have tried deleting and reconnecting both ActivSync and the Bluetooth connection.
I have tried adding COM ports to my PC and having the options set to incoming device dictates port but nothing seems to work.
Any Takers ?
I'm trying to set my laptop up to use the td2 to get a connection to the internet. can this be done either via bluetooth wiFi or USB. I have tried to add a bluetooth network connection but the laptop keeps giving an error saying could not connect to the remote device.
When I plug mine into my laptop via USB, I get an option on the device to 'internet share'. Does this not happen for you? I'm not sure whether Windows Mobile Device Center is also needed, but it may be!
I did this today using a Macbook. The USB did not work on the Mac but Bluetooth did. I had to connect to the phone from the computer using ordinary bluetooth first (without network). Then I had to choose Internet Connection on the phone using Bluetooth PAN - which I assume is Bluetooth network. Also had to select Bluetooth PAN on Macbook - was a bit fiddly but it worked. Anyway it does work with USB on the PC see post 16 of the thread here.
cheers both, i will check out the other thread but when I connect the phone via USB to this (work) laptop, I get nothing. My home one uses Vista and Mobile Device Centre, but my work one uses XP.
typically, after a reboot the phone gives of the option to shart internet sharing but the laptop wants to install a rndis connection, but the only way to do this is connect to internet. ironic.
Ok, finally have a proper Interenet connection and downloaded Activesync 4.5 from MS. This looks like it will resolve the situation.
Hi,
I just bought a Bluetooth dongle for my PC. (Trust Ultra Small Bluetooth 2.1 Usb Adapter 25 M)
The main reasons for buying this was so I could sync without using one of my very spare USB ports.
Another big reason was that I really want to try SideShow.
So, I hooked the thing up, installed it. Works like a charm for most services (files etc). It just doesn't work for two things: ActiveSync (on the phone)/Windows Device Center (on my PC) and Windows SideShow. Yay.
Could you please help me out?
To summarize:
PC with Vista Home Premium,
Trust Ultra Small Bluetooth 2.1 Usb Adapter 25 M,
HTC S730.
Not working for ActiveSync nor SideShow.

PS: I installed something called "X86-PC Drivers.cab" I found in some thread. That's supposed to be the drivers for the SideShow service on the PC. (I think I installed them, I did not get an error from Rundll32...)
EDIT: what might be of use: I can't get the devices to pair if I use the PC to initiate that. The PC does not find the phone untill I pair them using to phone to initiate.
I don't know about SideShow but I managed once to ActiveSync my Wings through Bluetooth. Just be sure to remove any security restricition on your Bluetooth settings on your device. Like Secure Connection etc... Also, setup a serial port when you connect with your PC and then, at PC ActiveSync settings, at connection settings -> Allow Connections To One Of The Following (Com 4 or whatever). And then, at ActiveSync on your mobile, connect through Bluetooth. Try it and come again if it doesn't work.
Yes! Thank you. It's syncing as I type. That COM4 did the trick!
In the same way, you can have Internet on your mobile through Bluetooth's activesync connection. It is helpful if you don't have wifi on your mobile.
