i have 2 att tilts. Both of them used to connect to activesynce perfectly until last week. now only one connects and when i disconnect that one and try to connect the other one the phone just charges. ive hard resetted my phone, reinstalled acivesync, change usb cords and i turned off all of my firewalls. i dont know whats wrong. Please can someone help me get this going because i really want to flash a new rom. i have 3.29 hard spl and 1.65.24.36 radio and im using Pc. ultimate v 16 rom. my computer is windows xp. thank you
(1) After you connect the Tilt that will not sync, Open Tools>Options and see if you have anything selected. If that won't work, disconnect the Tilt, and in the AS window, open File>Mobile Device and select the one that don't work and then open File again and Delete Mobile Device. Reconnect the Tilt and create a new partnership.
(2) You won't need for sync to be working to flash, you just need for the circle to be green showing that the Tilt in connected to the PC and communication is possable.
Hope that helps.
make sure advanced networking is unchecked
Settings -> Connections -> USB to PC -> "Enable advanced network functionality" needs to be un-checked. Good luck!

After a hard reset on the TyTn my computer is no longer detecting it when I connect the phone to USB cable. The computer makes a sound when I connect it, but Windows Mobile Device Centrer say that TyTn II is not connected, and it does not show up in My Computer eather.
I've tryed to delete the partnership and reconnect the phone, but nothing happens.
Can anyone help me please! Now I cant install any of my programs og transfer files between the computer and the pocket pc/phone.
Try this:
tap Start > Settings > Connections.
tap USB to computer.
Uncheck the Enable advanced network functionality box

I uninstalled Windows Mobile Device Centrer and then tryed the tip you described here. At first it looked ok, my computer detected the device and installed the drivers and reinstalled Windows Mobile Device Centrer.
But my device is still not showing up in Windows Mobile Device Centrer or My Computer
Check your personal firewall settings and open the ports MS asks you to at the Windows Mobile home/support page...
Go into task manager & see if Activesync is running. I have the same problem with my tilt & if I kill activesync then reattach it takes a moment the first time, but then it works.
Make sure you are running the latest version of WMDC. I absolutely could not get WMDC to work with my HTC Wizard for months. After MS came out with an updated version of WMDC (around June, I think) it started working fine.
If you absolutely can't get it to work, consider using emoze for over the air syncing of cal, contacts, mail, etc. (or an on-line exchange account.) I had to do that for a few months until I got it to work. Emoze has the advantage of being free. Unfortunately, neither will allow file syncronization, tho.
There is no activesync running.
And everything was working just fine before my device went "mental" and I had to hard reset. So before the hard reset I could use WMDC on this computer, transfer files and run active sync. But now I cant.
I also got an online exchange account so I can sync calender and contacts. But I want to be albe to transfer files to my computer and install new software.
My WMDC version is: 6.1.6965
Some more info about the computer may help. For instance, I take it from your usage fo Windows Mobile Device Center that you are running Vista. In any case, since the problem is with the computer and not the Kaiser, I would see if the manufacturer would provide some support.
Yes, im running Vista and I buildt the PC my self.
But Im not sure its realy the PC that is the problem, because I made the changes (Hard Reset) to the device and thats what caused the problem.
Anyway, I was hoping for some way to debug/troubleshoot this problem.
I am having the same problem. I sync to any one of 8 computers at work and one at home. Work runs XP PRO and Home VISTA Ultimate x64 all worked fine untill this week. I have not made any changes since the last sync, the computers know it's hooked up due to activesync opening and trying to connect when I plug in via USB. But it never connects. I want to flash to Dutty's newest ROM but can't connect. I sync all contacts and e-mail wirelessly but need the computer to flash (I do not have a sd card yet) Any idead would be great! I have tried the ideas listed above but no joy. I have not hard reset the device as of yet ( I need some things off of it first)

BUMP
I really need help with this!!! I'm pulling my hair out!
Did any of you that had this problem find a solution? I have the exact same issue except a hard reset will fix it for a while, and then the problem will reoccur a few months later. No software has been added during the time frame. Very annoying.
i've got just the same problem! plaese help us!

please anyone help me , i got att 8925, it used to work perfect before like everytime i connect my phone to ActiveSync now it didnt connect anymore, can anyone show me how to fix it...thnaks
Cant identify your prob? it could be a software or hardware prob
Did you try restartin both your pda n computer?
or try reinstall activesync or update your activesync the latest is 4.5 coz wm6 needs 4.5
or try to hard reset yr device then connect it
Check yor sync cable is properly connected to both devices
I haven't got my Kaiser yet - arrives tomorrow but this was sometimes a simple problem on the Hermes. Try disabling the advanced network functionality in the USB to PC settings - it might work.
You can sometimes have Activesync problems with conflicting data (AC sync is not only for Mail/contacts it does your My Documents and whatever you configured at association, and some app's puts data there!) Just do a soft-reset (stylus in the hole 'Carefully' and it should cure it.
Hello guys,since it is my first post I'd like to say "What a wonderful forum!" Thanks for letting lamers like me be here...
I have a problem with my newly bought HTC Diamond..I don't know what and why happens but as soon as I connect the phone to my laptop via USB cable and activesync program, my Wi-Fi goes dead ASAP..it hangs on Acquiring network address and it gets one after a while but no traffic neither on my pc nor on my pda when I disconnect the pda I continue without internet on my pc...I have to restart for it to come and the process repeats itself over and over again
Thanks in advance for your help.
I used to have that problem with my thinkpad and my old smartphone.
Try settings -> all settings -> connections -> USB to PC
and turn off 'enable advanced network functionality'
errr try:
1) performing a hard reset on your Diamond and try this again?
2) try with different laptop?

I think you should try to disable your anti-virus / firewall / internet security program first. i suspect it got something to do it.

I think that is spot on. From what i remember, it was something to do with a 'Security feature' that microsoft implements in async 4, but it only seemed to affect certain intel chipsets (i could be wrong, it's been a while since i saw that happen) for wireless LAN.
Far as i know, there was a USB swithc application made here way back when, that microsoft then copied and put in the roms as USB to PC. hopefully it'll fix your little issue.
Yeah, activsync sets up a virtual network, which drives any connection manager or firewall you have crazy!
Depends on what combination of things your running on your PC.
I remember a similar problem I had and I had to enable Transient Packet Data=Allowed in my firewall. (Outpost Pro).
Thanks guys!
The:
Try settings -> all settings -> connections -> USB to PC
and turn off 'enable advanced network functionality'
did the job.
Thanks again.

I was gonna suggest that but guess you've found it. Looks like a setup or conflict issue with something else on your laptop.
Tried this on two PCs with Activesync on now...
When I connect, the phone pops up the message about whether to use activesync or disk. If I choose disk, I can happily copy stuff from PC to phone.
However, if I choose activesync, it doesnt connect on the PC. I've tried manually connecting activesync on the PC, but it just doesnt find the phone.
Any ideas?
Did you use bluetooth to sync on that pc? If I sync over bluetooth and after that I try to sync by wire I get the same problem as you discribe .
I didn't try to find a way out just keep on syncing true bluetooth but one of the solutions maid be to remove the phone from active sync at your pc and setup a new connecion.
Willem
Nah. Just USB.
I just installed active sync for first time on my laptop here and it wont find. I'm wondering if its something on the actual phone I've deleted or something ?
Hi
Do you use Windows XP or Vista?
On Vista there are many problems but almost all are solved now just do a search on sync Vista in this forum and you maid find the solution.
Willem
Hi guys, I have similar problem. I can sync over BT but does not work over USB.
This problem is on my Vista laptop .
If I connect device with USB, I can find "Microsoft Windows Mobile Remote Adapter" in Device manager. In Network center, I can find new connection using this WMR adapter. But system is not able to assign IP adress for this connection.
Thats probably a reason why sync does not work.
I was trying reinstall Windows mobile center, disable antivirus, firewalls, update drivers...everything. Still does not work.
Any hints are appreciated.
Thanks Ladis
I have the same issue with windows vista and dutty 3.6 rom. It worked fine last time I tried in December, but I tried again yesterday and stopped working...
i have Duttys 3.6b, it was working perfectly. Stopped working after Vista reinstall... so its pretty weird
I found when using my laptop in battery mode activesync wont work but as soon as i switch to high performance mode everything is fine i guess its to do with voltage to the usb in diffeent modes
I'll probably try to flash there last Dutty's ROM V4 and see if there is some different
Hi,
I had the same problem when i change the ROM.
Go to Start -> Configuration -> Connections -> USBtoPC and below ActiveSync appers a sentence and comment to uncheck this item if you are facing problems with ActiveSync.
Test it.

This worked, strange that this setting is changed when you setup a bluetooth connection.

Peoples,
After flashiong a new ROM I have lost internet connectivity on my device when connected with Activesync to PC.
Re-flashed a different ROM (HTC stock standard) then another and the problems persists...this is with no additional s/w loaded on the device.
This makes me think it is an issue with my PC and possibly activesync. I re-installed activsync, no fix!
The device connects (no problems) and synchronises and I can open the deivce on the PC and see all...
Can anyone guide me through checking my PC/internet connections so as to troubleshoot as this is driving me nuts!?!?!
BTW, thought it might be firewalled out by windows XP but all seems in order there...
Looking forward to any help soonest......
Just to add that all works OK using my home Wifi connection....just when connected to Activsync with the USB cable......
Solution found....yay!
Unbelievable but true....simple solution that I waster 8 hours trying to fix by installing new ROMs, re0-installing Activesync, USB driver....you name it!
The solution was to Open ActiveSync, go to File, Connection settings.
There you will see "This computer is connected to" - Automatic
Change the dropdown arrow to.....The Internet and now it works
This Activsync software is pure rubbish...always has been and always will be....
At least I'm back in business and I hope others learn from my grief!!!
