Windows Mobile Device Center (WMDC)

OK, I searched and searched, followed all the MS instructions and I cannot get VISTA ( Biz edition ) to connect to my (HTC branded) Kaiser.
The "Microsoft Windows Mobile Remote adapter" driver does show up under Network Adapter in Device Manager but WMDC is oblivious to the USB attached device...
Any ideas ?

I remember the first time I connected mine in the exact same setup it took like 10 minutes to find it.

Try running windows update with your kaiser plugged in. If your missing a driver or something it should be able to find and install it.

Sorry guys,
My mistake .. did not have USB connection enabled on Activesync on the phone.
Thanks for your help!

WMDC + Windows 7 = doesn't recognize Fuze

I realize since I have a RC of Win 7, there may not be drivers for my Fuze. But just wanted to ask in case anyone here has gotten it to work. My Q9h synced fine under WMDC + Win 7.
What I did so far:
I deleted partnership with Q under WMDC.
Rebooted PC.
Under USB to PC, AS is selected and Enable adv network functionality is un-checked.
Plugged in Fuze.
No drivers installed; No prompt to install driver.
Phone is charging via USB
Neither WMDC nor W7 sees phone.
So I'm guessing it's a driver problem. Anyone know if there are drivers for HTC devices for Win 7? Or is there some other setting in the phone other than USB to PC I need to change?
Update:
I can sync via Bluetooth with no problems.

well..
Can you post more details? What build number, 32 or 64 bit. Mine worked just fine, and I had a Diamond I was using before hand.

Ive had a similar thing happen in Vista. I think WMDC is just garbage. The only way I fixed it was a system rollback to when it had once worked. Sounds like you never got it to work in the first place though.

What I don't get is why WMDC worked for my Q and not my Fuze.
Could it be the cable? Are there differences in USB cables? I am using a USB cable that can be detached from a wall charger.

Mine works. Did nothing out of the ordinary.
Last night I put on Office 2010 and it wouldn't sync, so I deleted the partnership, but when I connected the Fuze again it re-added. What I ended up doing was hitting Sync on the phone. You can see the sync happen in Windows Sync Center.
Will check back on you a little later

When you connect the phone, at some point it should install a driver. Maybe you could try reinstalling WMDC

I can't click on sync in phone because it is not click-able.

I was able to sync via Bluetooth...
Still no USB sync...

Solution: Boot the phone into the tri loader then run the .exe for installing the ROM, its installing for me right now
Windows 7 x64
Build: 7100

How do I do that?

Problem solved.... it was the cable. I bought a new one that was specifically a data cable and it worked. Lesson learned, not all usb cables are the same....
Thanks for everyone's input

Sync with Windows 7

Anyone know how to sync with Windows 7???
I've tried to install Windows Mobile Device Center 6.1, but it don't recognize my phone.. And ActiveSync won't even be installed due to compability reasons. (Doh, it's Win7)
I really like Win7, so it would be great to sync the phone

Try another cable or something, the mobile center should work.

But the mobile is charging =/ So i don't think something is wrong with the cable and it worked just fine in XP (ActiveSync). And when I connected the mobile first time, the PC recognized it and installed the drivers for the mobile and the ActiveSync started on the mobile. Should it start on the phone when mobile center is running on the PC?

So does that mean you didn't try anothe cable? Because if you had researched this sort of thing (aka searched) you would find that the cables do this quite often.

i don't know what is the issue for you as i have win7rc1 and i can sync fine using the mobile device center.

If you are using 64bit Windows 7 then you need to download the updated drivers for the HTC. I am not sure exactly where Microsoft has these located, but it automatically downloaded and installed the new USB drivers that it needed just the other day for me......
Works excellent. I was using the 32 Bit version of Windows 7 before this and even though its based under Vista couldn't get it to synch up.

I have Win7 64 bit...with internet already established through another source, when I plugged in my tilt, it found the driver and installed it and has worked flawlessly ever since.

Works fine for me too on Win7 x64.
First, try another cable. USB has 4 connections, only 2 are needed to make it charge, but for communication it needs all 4. Maybe try another USB port on your PC as well.
And as said before, make sure you have an internet connection so it can download the drivers.
WMDC is already built in with Win7, so don't install any other versions from Microsoft Download Center.

Works fine for Win7 x64.
but Win7 x86 "NO"
you can use virtual XP mode for 32bit version

Updates?
Hi. I had this same problem following a hard-reset of my phone. After a while of searching I found that an update (designed for Vista) is available on the microsoft website. Downloaded, installed and sync worked first time. Yey

It should work with Win 7 RC 32 bit - does for me!

Then you're doing something wrong (such as not having the TyTN II correctly connected to your desktop PC or not having internet access on it to download whats required perhaps). I plugged my TyTN II into my Win 7 RC (32 bit) PC and after a bit of hardware detection and some automatic downloading it works (allbeit still with slow file tranfers but at least the UI is better than Win XPs Activesync). Welcome to xda-dev by the way

I think that it matters wether or not it's Windows7 RC.. Right after it came out someone was using the beta and it wouldn't work for them.

I was wondering the same but as the RC version is still avail for free until 20 Aug, anyone with the Beta should be formatting and installing this instead. Grab it while you can

I am running RC 7100 and I have no problem syncing.
Only issue I have now is, when the phone is connected, it won't let me delete or replace any .xml files through file explorer. This was never an issue with XP and Active Sync.

i just found what the problem is. Open settings on phone, then connection tab, open usb to pc... and there uncheck (enable advanced network function)
With it checked it didnt work on mine win7

I had that problem when I first bought my TyTN II but it was because I was attempting to connect it to my ancient USB 1.1 ports on my Pentium III. As soon as I installed a modern (but cheap) NEC chipset USB 2.0 PCI adapter card, I found I could connect fine either with or without advanced network functionality enabled. This is a USB port hardware compatibility issue rather than a Win 7 issue and I suspect even if users have Win XP on the machine that behaves this way, they'd still get the exact same response.

your speaking about USB 1 when others is speaking about Win7. If you dont know win 7 is the newest MS OS. So, i belive, all who use win7 have USB2. So there is question why you mention usb1?
And i didnt sad whole story. I had used phone with win xp for long time with that check on, and with one cabler... now on win7 i tried 2 diferent cables with that check on. Didnt work. Took it off and it started to work. So its Win7 issue.

Thanks for the explanation but my Pentium III is capable of running (or should that be walking) Win 7 RC and it has USB 1.1 ports (as well as a USB 2.0 card now). Given Win 7 RC was avail free of charge - don't know if it still is, I got mine in June, there'll be people who get it just to see what it looks like, even though the hardware isn't up to ideal spec.
I don't know what ports were being used in your case because as you mentioned, full details weren't supplied and we didn't have the whole story - we still don't know. Glad you've resolved the issue in your case but in a modern PC which can comfortably run Windows 7, I wouldn't typically expect this to be an issue. If the hardware is struggling to keep up or has USB ports of dubious quality/performance, then thats a different matter.

Sounds like win7 (my main OS now days) communicates with the USB ports in a different manner than XP or the other OS's. Good to know.

Hey, I had the same problem. The drivers that come with the phone are x86, not x64, so you need to go to:
<br>microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=6eb8d0aa-bc6b-4864-8ffe-dc26e1d9f843&displaylang=en
It's the 64 bit version of Windows Mobile Device Centre. The drivers don't come from HTC, they come from Microsoft.

The Diamond should connect without installing anything. W7 downloads drivers automatically. I'm using W7 Ultimate 32 and 64 bit versions and have no problem connecting my PDAs (W7 RC and RTM) through USB or BT.

same prob.em...but resolved
in win 7 32: just restart the device(htc) until will be recognized.maybe 1-2 soft reset.hope u have succes.

[Q] Problem syncronizing with Windows 7 (x64)

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
Zap

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
