Hi Everyone
I have recently had brough the HTC Touch Pro (MDA Vario IV) but have had a few software issues;
- When I used the internet sharing function with my Vista (32 bit) computer every time I try to sync using MDC it keeps recongising it at a internet mobile network adaptor - I uninstalled the drivers, rebooted my phone but it still deos work and without the sync funcation I cannot access my backup files.
how do I get back to normal sync status?
also this MDA Vario IV is new and not even t-mobile have the nessary software on their website, should I just treat it as the HTC touch pro, but when I tried installing the new ROM there was a problem
many thanks
Go to: Start --> Settings --> Connections --> USB to PC, set the mode to active sync, and your TP will sync like before!

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!

Hi can anyone help. My windows vista home premium laptop has automatically updated itself and now my vario 3 wont synch with it. Iv hard reset my vario 3 to see if this was an issue but didnt resolve. Any ideas how to resolve this at all
I sometimes get the problem where the device wont sync with Vista after its been powered up for a long time without a reboot (i.e. more than half a day) or if I haven’t rebooted the machine since the last sync. If I reboot my machine it works perfectly then.
Weird!
Unless you have added a third party software firewall, WMDC 6.1 should still sync fine. As poster above says, reboot both devices.
I had this after a windows update, i just uninstalled WM device centre, connected the phone and did a search for updates and it re-downloaded it from MS
thanks
thanks guys. all sorted now
Hi, i have recently installed ms active sync 4.5. However my tytn ii will not establish a connection with my pc. It charges just fine but does not connect. I have searched all over but did not find a solution to my problem. i was wondering if it mightbe the cable i got with my device when i purchased it. it is a usb to "mini usb" like the motorolas and nokia 6300 use. Could this be my problem?
I doubt it's because of the cable (though could be). Try unchecking start>settings>connections>usb to pc.
I have the same problem, and have tried connecting with and without advanced network functionality.
activesync does not respond at all, even when trying to connect from activesync on my pc.
I have the same problem, charging o.k., but USB connecting not work
Before I had same problem. The reason was I have installed some 3rd party program what somehow blocked the sync.
I have un-installed this program but it couldn't help because the registry setting was modified by this software. So finally I ended up with a hard reset and reinstall everything. After that the sync just work fine again.
Sigh, i thought it might come to that.
hard reset 2x, no effect
flah rom from SD card, Duty V1 Daimond....no effect
flah rom from SD card, L26 V6 Daimond.... I have the same problem, charging ok, USB data connecting not work...
Well, hard reset complete to no effect. So frustrating!!!! I have been troubleshooting for ages and have nothing to show for it. Surely someone on this forum has solved this problen before.
Hi
I had the same problem following a rebuild of my laptop.
Problem traced to my firewall which had blocked the connection.
Once rule changed to allow no further problems.
Hi colinm, what did you do exactly? It may help me out of this situation.
Doesn't anyone know anything about this?
Yeah i had it get the latest update for active sync from windows its a latest driver pack goto teh windows home and look on there it sorted my one out
what version is it? i have 4.5 right now.
If you could provide a direct link that would be great.
I was trying in 2 different PC ( Vista, Win XP), but the same problem, cable is ok....
I would really like to know what the more experienced members think about this but no-one really seems to want to reply. also i would like to know is the usb data cable plug identical to the htc original handsfree plug which is an exact fit. as i mentioned before my data cable is more like a mini usb, like the motorolas use. it fits (not perfectly like the handsfree), charges but there is no recognition between the device and the pc (xpSP2 running activesync 4.5 which came with the device).
Please help, i may seem to be a noob but i have tried available advice and troubleshooting has become repetitive.
My Mobile Device Center from my Tilt to Windows Vista stopped working a few weeks ago. Tried everything to no avail.
there was one thing that i couldn't do while troubleshooting.
"Do the following:
Disconnect the device.
Open Network Connections in Control Panel on the PC.
Note If your Control Panel is set to Category View, open Network and Internet Connections, and then open Network Connections
Right-click the local area connection created by ActiveSync, and click Properties. In the Connect using box, Windows Mobile-based device is displayed.
In This connection uses the following items, select every check box (to select all protocols).
Reconnect the device."
i cannot see the network icon active sync has created. which leads me to believe that this might be the problem. does anyone know how to fix this?
will updating to SP3 do anything, gonna try will let you know.

Hi,
I upgraded to several different versions of WM6.x (almost all above) but have the same problem. After UG I can't install any software through AS or browse the device with Explorer. Explorer shows no contents and the software screen opens but shows only a frame. I had the same problem with a Hermes and solved it by unchecking the extended network options in settings>connections>USB to PC but when I do that with the MDA II it freezes when I place it in the docking station. I then have to SR. I replaced the serialusbfn.dll with the one available on another post but AS will no longer recognize the device.
Any ideas? I've downgraded to WM2k3SE until I find something that works.
Btw, yes I did do a proper HR (n, yes,yes)
Cheers
First of all you need AS-4.5
If yes, check the settings in windows firewall.
If you are using some other firewall or virus guard, disable it temporarily.
Right click on AS icon in system tray & select Connection manager, enable USB.
Delete previous partnerships in AS.
Restart the PC & try to connect.
If it fails you can follow the diagnostic procedure which gives a error code, or possible cause. Check the error code with Microsoft web site.
You can also try to uninstall & reinstall AS
Hi,
I've tried all of that before (should have said so, b4). Here is a little more info:
I sync with 2 different computers, one at home (no network) and one at work (network). Both run WinXP Pro. I only have this problem with the work computer and only when WM6.x is intalled on a MDA II. The problem goes away when using WM2k3SE or when using a Hermes with WM6.x. Since the Hermes works without problem, I don't think it's the desktop.
Something causes the MDA to freeze when activesynce starts. Even the charging light stays on when I pull the unit out of the docking station. Backlight stays at full brightness and it doesn't go to sleep after a time. No buttons (even on/off) work. I can only SR.
Help!

Hi Muckelmaus,
thankx but I tried that. It causes the device to not be seen at all. I cradle it and nothing happens.
Cheers
Hello there, I am tryig to sync my phone with usb cable via windows mobile center 6.1. My OS is Win Vista home premium. My device is recognized by PC as media device and thus it could be set up by windows media player. When the "advance network functionality" on my PDA is checked is off, the on PC -> Network connections there is no local area connection to the mobile device. If I am checking the check box, then the laptop creates the connection to the mobile device, active sync starts to work, but nothing. The sync process is not completed and the status on the PDA is "connected. BTW in this situation I am able to browse the device and its file contents.
Tried to uninstall->install the mobile center few times - the same. Upgraded to the official WM 6.1 - the same. When trying to connect to PC with WinXP and active sync 4.5, everything is fine. This causes me to think that the problem is definitely in Vista.
Please, if anyone have information on this problem or could help, would be great.
Thanks in advance to anyone who might post any feedback!
Regards,
Stephan
