Cannot Sync with Win7

Hello guys,
Anyone running Win7 beta? I tried both 32 and 64-bit and I cannot synchronize... I always get an error, but Windows will not give me any details on it -or an error code to go on with. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling the device, but haven't succeeded...
Any help much appreciated!

Download Windows mobile device center for vista on the microsoft site
Works for me
Good luck

That's what I'm running - in fact, Win7 downloads it automatically.
Here's what I'm getting:

Hi, I had kinda same problem. I got a message in windows help, saying that i had to start command in "admin mode", and then type:
reg delete HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\SQMClient\Windows\DisabledSessions /va /f
When I did that, and started Win Mobile Device Center all worked perfect..

I uninstalled Windows Mobile Device Centre and then installed the downloaded one and works a treat now.

Remember guys Win7 is beta so share your findings with Microsoft

i can connect with bluetooth but not usb in win7, but i still sync with vista.

Hm, thanks for the tip... I googled it and it seems a catch-all fix of some sorts.
In my case, the suggested key was empty. So, you can guess, it didn't work
Thanks nevertheless!

Guys, thanks for the info above, saved me a pile of time!

So... am I the only one? With two different installations of Win7 and two different ROMs it surely sounds strange...

had the same problems with win7
..then i unchecked the "faster synchronisation" option in diamonds "USB to PC " setting.
(The checkbox below "acitive sync synchronisation with outlook")
I´m using the german ROM, so the menu description might sound slightly different to what i posted ;-)

I always have this off, since it has never worked for me on any machine (either for my previous TyTNII or the Diamond). So It's been unchecked the whole time. The problem is that ActiveSync DOES recognize the device, it initiates the sync procedure and then craps out

strange
..i´m running win7 on 2 machines and the active sync stuff works without problems..
running latest udK Syrius GER ROM

USPL and Windows 7

Hello,
I have already moved to Windows 7, which is very stable and much faster then Windows Vista...
There are some problems with the Windows 7 and USPL...
Is there a configuration guide, which explains the procedure, how I can manage the USB connection problems within Windows 7.
Many Thanks
Roman

You need to update the USB drivers.
The following post will explain how. This works for Windows 7 aswell as Vista.
http://www.modaco.com/content/windo...u-on-vista-it-can-be-done-the-ultimate-guide/

One thing to note, you have to put your phone in bootloader and connect it via USB for it to show the Mobile Device - HTC USB in Device Manager.
One laptop I was on I knew I had to apply the fix on so hadn't tried without updating, and took me forever to find out why I couldn't find the driver to update.

I used a small program called "Driver Signature Enforcement Overrider 1.3b".
Its freeware for using unsigned drivers in Windows 7.
I'm using Windows 7 x64 and USPL works perfect now.

Thanks

Hello,
Had to upgrade my Windows 7 to build 7077 first....!
Then it worked @ 1st try... ;-)
Roman

I have problem with installing driver on Windows 7 64-bit (build 7077). I always get error: This device cannot start (Code 10). Does anyone have solution for it?

I had to get to 7077 as well, i couldnt make it start on 7057 or 7068 either.

I just solved it, but I can't explained how... I tried it again and again.. did some restart of HD and of Windows 7 and finally I was successfull . My tip is to re-connect HD on USB before installation...

I use 7077 x64 and no issues with it whatsoever. I had no issues at all with any build and actually it gets the drivers and Windows Mobile Device Center automatically for me. Check your system drivers like chipset and usb controller for updated versions maybe?

Thanks
Many thanks for the solution that you give to us.

I have been testing every release of Windows 7 since 7000 and as long as you install WMDC (Windows Mobile Device Center 6.1) and then update the HTC USB Sync driver (put your phone into bootloader and update the driver in device manager with the one from the guide in my signature) you won't have any issues flashing roms. This is for both 32 and 64-bit versions of Windows 7.

USB Tethering: How ?

The cyanogen rom 4.2.3 has USB tethering support, but I can not get it to work, mainly because of missing information/documentation.
In 'settings' 'wireless controls' there is a nice 'Internet tethering' option to switch it on. When I switch that on then my Windows XP PC shows an unknown device 'Andriod Phone' and would like to install drivers for it. Where can I get these drivers from ?
Markus

I would also like to know how the usb tethering works for a mac as well. Didnt find any information on that. Thanks in advance.

You may need to get the drivers from the Android SDK, but with regards to USB tethering, your phone should be recognised as an NDIS based network device and installed automatically by Windows. Not sure about XP, but it installs automatically on Vista and 7

Under Ubuntu Linux (from an end-user perspective), when a G1 is connected with USB tethering enabled, network manager connects as if the phone were a standard, ethernet connection.

I have the Android SDK (1.6r1) and I point the driver install wizard at the usb_driver directory when he wants to install the device. Despite this the 'Found new Hardware' Wizard come up with 'Cannot install this Hardware'.

For xp you have to install drivers from htc sync software. Just google 'htc sync'. Should have been asked in q&a.

Nothing happens on Mac OS X 10.5.8 neither on 10.6.1

Isnt this Q&A? but I think this is it.... http://handheld.softpedia.com/progDownload/HTC-Sync-Download-81096.html
Im trying to get this to work also

I couldn't get it to work on my Windows XP SP2 computer at work. I get a code 10.

Guys, don't forget to use search! I've seen these issues brought up in at least 3 or 4 threads, and tons of posts.

If you're running windows XP the driver isn't included on your computer. Some people have installed HTC Sync to get the drivers, personally I got them from this post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=445436
I can confirm that the driver from that post works, I am using tethering with my laptop right now to write this post!

The search doesnt always give you what your lookin for if you dont word it a certain way man................
I think im gonna need a step by step.... I got the file... the computer recognizes the device.... But it doesn't register as a connection....

To everyone that is having problems tethering:
I was having the same issues. At first I wasn't able to get it to install, and then it would just keep saying the device couldn't start.
i found a very simple solution. I went into device manager, uninstalled all of my usb ports, and restarted my computer.
When it restarted, it automatically installed the usb drivers, and the tethering has worked ever since.

I could not get this to work either, finally after 3 days of messing with this on my work pc, I got it to work. First download htc sync from here http://www.htc.com/uk/SupportViewNews.aspx?dl_id=631&news_id=270 then unzip and install to your pc. Next tick on the option to usb tether while the phone is plugged in. It will say found Android phone Sdk or something like that. I did this on my xp pc at work that had no htc drivers previously installed. Next I went to my device manager and under network adapters you will see the yellow exclamation point, right click on that and update driver, 1st install from a specific location, 2nd Don't search I will choose driver to install. 3rd Have disk, 4th browse to C/program files/htc/htc driver/driver files/xp_86x then hit open and click ok. It might give a "stop warning" ignore it and continue. When its done installing you should be ready to go.....

I'm so frustrated with this whole process. I've done every step you've outlined, and I still get a code 10 - cannot start the driver. And I still don't have USB tethering. What am I doing wrong?

That's your problem then. Yeah update to sp3 and you will be good. I promise.

I'm running into the same tethering trouble, but appear to meet all the criteria mentioned in this thread and other threads i've come across. the bottom line is i can connect with ADB access and mount my phone's SD card via the usb connection, but tethering doesn't work under several versions of Cyanogen on my laptop. currently I have CM 4.2.12.2 on my rooted Dream. I have windows SP3 installed (installed it twice because problem persisted). I've uninstalled all the USB ports per an above post, rebooted and plugged my phone in. The laptop reinstalls the USB ports, and finds the phone as an "ADB Interface" named "HTC Dream Composite ADB Interface". I can update the drivers with the google SDK USB drivers which makes the device an "Android Phone" named "Android Composite ADB Interface" instead. With either set of drivers installed, once I go to Settings on my phone and enable tethering, the device under windows goes away and instead i get yellow question mark "Other Devices" named Android Phone. I can try to force it to use the same USB drivers but it won't install them.
With tethering turned off, i can successfully type "adp devices" on my laptop console and see that my phone is there. once i turn tethering on, the same command shows no devices.
The Dream works with tethering just fine on my windows pc and shows up as a "Network adapter" named "Windows Mobile-based Internet Sharing Device".
My laptop is a compac presario in case that matters. what do i need to do on it to make tethering work?

just found the solution. a lot of posts were talking about installing microsoft active sync. sounded pointless considering it's an android phone, but it ends up being that the drivers for "windows mobile-based internet sharing device" are part of the active sync installation. i installed active sync, plugged in my phone, enabled tethering and then the laptop installed the correct drivers and it all worked without a hitch. hope this helps others!

[Drivers] MS Windows x86 and x64 USB Drivers for Samsung Galaxy S

Team,
For those of you having trouble finding drivers here are some links.
64bit:
http://drivers.softpedia.com/get/MOBILES/Samsung/Samsung-Galaxy-S-USB-Driver-for-Windows-x64.shtml
32bit:
http://drivers.softpedia.com/get/MOBILES/Samsung/Samsung-Galaxy-S-USB-Driver-for-Windows-x86.shtml
For Linux and Mac the Android SDK drivers should work fine.

The standard Samsung USB driver that PDAnet had listed for the Samsung Moment worked for me as well, will give these new ones a try on my other system.

thank you
I added a link to this thread in the sticky

EDIT: Nevermind the n00b question. I was able to get the drivers installed and I am good to go.

have the same problem. i'm on 7, 32bit

did you enable USB debugging?
Gunnman from Galaxy S

yes of course. first thing I did after I rooted

I'm drunk so bear with me. go into device manager and browse for the driver manually ,include subdir. point to programfiles\samsung.
if that don't work use the 64bit drivers on 32bit windows. don't run setup just browse to the extracted dir from the unknown device in device manager. it worked for me at work. good night
Gunnman from Galaxy S

since i had issues w/ the 32bit driver exe, i extracted it and zipped it up incase others have the same issue.
http://rapidshare.com/files/408470448/Samsung_Usb_Drivers_x32.zip

this thread should be stickied since W7 doesn't come with the drivers, it seems.

How exactly do you update the drivers with win7? It keeps saying my drivers are up to date but I still can't get adb to recognize my vibrant

Anyone?? I can't get get adb to recognize my device for the life of me

Try both 32bit and 64 bit drivers. At work I have 32bit win7 and the 64bit drivers fixed it up. Dont run setup just go through device manager chosse the unknown device and point it to the 64bit driver directory and check include sundirs.

Try using correct drivers for your win version but turn the phone off, connect and then power up while connected....worked fine for me after messing with both lots of drivers first and no luck

Make sure you select "USB debugging" for ADB to work folks.

Where can I get the mac driver..i looked everywhere please help

this thread is legit!

thanks for all of your help so far guys.. BUT i still cannot get my laptop to sync up with the phone properly (win xp pro, sp3)...
I've downloaded and installed both drivers and the computer is recognizing the external drives, but they are showing as removable disks E: and F:. when i double click to open, it is telling me to insert a disk? i feel like i'm almost there, but there is somethign i'm missing!
usb is mounted and usb storage is off. usb debugging enabled.
any help would be appreciated.

Windows drivers issue
Have you tried mounting the drives. Same thing happened to me when you have it connected to the computer drop down the usb notification and mount. The your drives should be accessible.

[Q] Whats causing my cappy to freeze windows 7?

Just made the switch from ubuntu 10.10 to windows 7, didnt have issues using my cappy as a mass storage device on ubuntu
On win7 x64 if I try to transfer a file thats just more than a few mb's either from the cappy to the pc or vice versa, the transfer just gets stuck, the loading bar is flashing but it doesnt get anywhere. I have to unplug my phone from the computer in order for it to go away, this causes windows explorer(not the internet browser) to restart as well.
-my other usb devices work without a problem
-have tried all six usb ports on my computer, same thing
-even weirder, i reformatted, installed win7 x86 just to see, transfers work fine on it. Reformatted again and installed x64 with fingers crossed, transfers didnt work on it again.
-I have tried transferring files with no windows updates installed on x64 as well as all updates installed, file transfers still get stuck both ways.
-im using the x64 captivate drivers from the odin3 thread on xda. running andromeda3 ROM.
anyone know what this could possibly be?

sounds like bad drivers from samsung or windows is not using the newest driver version, maybe downloading drivers from samsung and manually installing would help
32 bit version of windows will have different drivers

I installed .net 4 and that seems to have fixed my problem, if that makes any sense.

makes sense. i keep forgetting about that but it is something you should have for alot of things in windows, thought it was one of the required things for adb and odin as well. not sure though

I'm lucky enough to have a roomate with a dual boot ubuntu/windows so I can keep my Ubuntu and borrow his windows machine when I need it. Definately sounds like driver/ .net 4 issues though.
