Hi all,
I have a problem with the Manager Comm :
when I push the button, the program runs(ShagCtrl) but when I push the buttons to activate/deactivate the wireless/bluetooth interface, seems that there is no comunication with the hardware side.
The icon says that the interface is activated but it's not!
On Linux the wifi/BT periferals work perfectly (Thanks again Pof!)
Anyone knows the reason for this problem?
Hi Guys
I seem to have the same problem as you. Vista SP1 totaly distroys your connections and I had to reinstall vista. FN+F3+F4 allows you to do this.
I also ound that the com manager stops working as mentioned by others and even a hard or soft rest does not work. see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=417268 , http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=421104 , http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=421729
I am searching the threads in the hope of someone posting a solution. I an begining to think that a flashed rom or liberated version may be the solution. If anyone one has any ideas, I would like to hear them
Best regards.
Guys, maybe it's SP1 also causing problem but mine WLAN and BT became suddenly unavailable still with no SP1 installed and having all automatic updates OFF. I just hard reset Vista, gone thru all the installations and had WLAN and BT running fine for 2-3 weeks. It simply stopped working one day (recent HTC drivers were not installed anyway).
Afterwards I've installed all hot fixes from automatic updates, all HTC new drivers dated October 2008 but didn't help. MArvell WLAN drivers are installed fine but device cannot start with error code 10 in Device Manager.
Now installing SP1, will see...
One more thing, ShagCtr freezes when I try do enable either WLAN or BT and must be forced shut down.
SP1 keep installing... for last 1hr /
need to wait
Hi all,
I've had my Shift for a few weeks now, and have tried a few of the methods described here and in other forums to update from the HTC supplied Windows Vista to Windows 7.
I've consistently hit the problem that Shift Control Center (ShagCtrl.exe) crashes once I upgrade beyond a certain point, no matter which upgrade route I choose. I really want to have ShagCtrl to have control of Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and USB etc. But I also really want to have Windows 7!
I've tried starting with an absolutely standard Vista as supplied by HTC. This is a pretty nice implementation of Vista, (as far as Vista can be nice!) and everything works as expected, with ShagCtrl available and working.
I've also tried taking a clean install of Windows 7 Ultimate onto a freshly formatted disk and installing all the drivers and programs as described.
Going the update route, everything (and in particular ShagCtrl) works until I apply the Vista SP1 update. At this point, ShagCtrl crashes with the message "ShagCtrl.exe has stopped responding. Click OK to search for a solution or...".Of course, no solution is offered!
If I go the fresh install of Windows 7 route, something similar happens. As soon as I install ShagCtrl and restart, ShagCtrl crashes in exactly the same way. I've tried running ShagCtrl.exe in Vista compatibility mode – still no go.
From comments here, it seems that some folks have a working Windows 7 with a working Shift Control Center. Can someone please give me a point-by-point description of what they did to achieve this? I really don't want to be stuck with an old version of Vista!
Thanks,
Richard
Hey everybody,
Im trying to connect my diamond via mobile center so that I can manage my contacts more comfortable.
My problem is........suprise...it doesnt work -.-
When I plug in my diamond and choose "Active Sync" on the device, somethings trying to install (WM whatever device) and then it stops with the message that drivers are not found and device is not installed properly.
When I open Mobile Device center, I see that after I plug it in it starts searching but never comes to an end, and the installation also fails.
Any idea what went wrong? I have Vista 32bit SP2.
I also installed the setup for more drivers for mobile center. I uninstalled it a thousand times but it simply doesnt find my device and the drivers for WM device...
Thanks for ur help !!
Works for me, but browsing files on my diamond via Mobile Center never worked.
Well nice that it works for you, tell the whole world buddy but why do you write in this thread when u dont have a solution or the same prob....
Any updates on this one?
Have the error message Code 10, device cannot be startet
Code 10 is a Driver problem.
What hardware is reporting the error?
Have you updated the Driver and directed it so System 32?
try to install this one

HeY Guys...
I've been reading through nearly every single help file which is dealing with debranding/flashing the X1 but I can't get on the right path...
I've downloaded X1_HardSPL and tried to flash my cell phone, but it doesn't work: Always the same: Lost connection to X1... (after my phone started in boot/update mode
X1 shows after the RGB monitor a gray window with "Loanding..." in it...after a few seconds, HardSPL stops the process...
System: Windows 7 RC1
every program and firewall turned off - even via TaskManager
no SIM card inserted
USB cradle directly connected to my laptop (no HUB)
Have you got any idea? I'm sure you have one... Thanks in advance!
I have exactly the same problem. I hope some one have an idea to fix this.
tray to use another computer. it will work with you
Windows 7
Hello,i got win 7 and dont have any problems with flashing x1,make sure you got phone connected with mobile device center,minimize the mobile device center,than start the hardspl.
My phone is connected with cable not via cradle i think the best and safest way is to connect directly.
Mobile device center is important because of drivers for X1.
uninstall active sync...reinstall active sync.
Win 7
Windows vista and win 7 use windows mobile device center not activesync.
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/en-us/help/synchronize/device-synch.mspx
when the phones about to go into the bootloader a notification comes up (did on mine anyway) i said yes to the notifiication and mine worked!
Please post in the existing Hard SPL thread.
Closed.

Worked fine for me.
works fine in x64...atleast for me!
I can confirm 6.5 works with 7 x64 I can also confirm that I cant get this to connect to my 7 x32 netbook, I can make it do everything but ActiveSync which includes Internet sharring USB and Bluetooth.
I'm running x32 ... What do you mean it will do everything "BUT" activesync. Thats kinda what i need it to do.
Ok ... i figured it out finally. WMDC wouldnt even run or Install, i should say, even though there was a setting portion in Control panel for it.
I found a article about how It wont run without running windows media player first. ( fresh Install and never ran it yet) So I went to run it only to find out It didnt exist.
I'm running Windows 7 Ultimate N which didnt have any Media Software included. ( Didnt know that) So, I downloaded the whole media pack and installed. then I ran media player once and Voila! All the phone drivers installed properly, WMDC Installed properly, Phone connected and sync'd.
Whew!! I'm glad thats over. I almost went back to XP Pro.

Windows 7 Ultimate is pretty nice. If anyone wants it, let me know. I found a good torrent and saved the ISO to my files for safe keeping.

I'm running two PCs with windows 7, one desktop with Windows 7 Professional (home) and a laptop with Windows 7 Ultimate (office). Currently I'm trying to sync to my laptop since that is what I sync to most.
After reading your post, this is what I tried:
1. Windows updates, it did install some windows mobile thingy which failed. I rebooted the machine, re-ran the update and it installed fine
2. Tried installing Windows Mobile Device Centre 6.1 (64-bit version) again, but it failed. Same message of Unidentified device and status of failed
3. I also tried your solution of keeping windows media player running before attempting to install WMDC, but no joy
Can someone please let me know how I go about this? This is frustrating, if I can't synch my pda I might as well throw it out (since I can't chuck out my laptop or job )
BTW, I'm running Windows Mobile 6.1, should I be upgrading this to 6.5 as I have read out here? I've searched on this forum but can't seem to find a download link for 6.5 (or perhaps as ASCIIker pointed out I'm going blind )
Mobile Device Center
I read this post and then was successful at installing device center. It was a weird install though. I am running 6.5 on the Tilt and Windows 7 64 bit on my laptop. I plugged the Tilt into the computer, started Media Player and configured it, and then launched the installer. It ran forever with the status bar saying 7 seconds to go. All the while, the diriver software was still trying to install. I finally got an error message from the driver software saying that it did not install properly. I opened up the troubleshooting box for the driver install and looked around a bit. Eventually, another message popped up in the driver install box saying it was trying again. Eventually, I another failure appeared. At that point, Device centered finished installing, the Tilt connected and all was well.
Total elasped time 20 minutes or so. Enough time to read a couple of pages on a new (to me) Andre Norton book and eat most of a popcorn popper full of popcorn.
Whew.
Nice to know it got solved.
It works fine for me:

This is the part I don't get, what exactly do I configure in Windows Media player? I plug in my phone, however, it doesn't seem to do anything, if I start windows media player and go to the sync tab, it is greyed out with the message 'Connect a device' Do you also uncheck the 'Enable faster data synchronization'? If I uncheck this, it does seem to try and install drivers for some 'Generic Serial' device but eventually comes back with 'Failed'

Well, I've tried the installer a zillion times now, no luck. It keeps trying for a couple of minutes with an 'Unidentified device' message and changes the status to failed subsequently
Why should it be so hard, I thought Windows 7 was supposed to make life easier, they obviously haven't heard of the phrase, 'if it ain't broke, don't fix it'
any solution?
Please. Iam really sick of it.
I can move files to kaiser, I can install via PC, I can acces my PDA via My Mobiler - but I can't sync! It just cycling the arrows and "syncing".
Please help, it really sux without contacts and calendar and you know - outlook.
The media center was just the initial configuration that runs when you first start it up.

Sorry is this in response to my question earlier? If so, do I start windows media player or windows media centre? I haven't tried starting windows media centre with the device connected. I'll give that a try

I use tcp's WM6.5 v11 Mega... no solution yet.... tried installing atleast for 8/10 times...
Please help...
Thanking in anticipation...

Kaiser TPC 11 mega and WMDC
The only way I've gotten Windows 7 WMDC to recognize my Tilt using TPC 11 Mega ROM is to connect using PAN over Bluetooth. I think the problem is that it doesn't report to Windows 7 that it's a Tilt or that Windows somehow knows that it's not supposed be running WM 6.5. Kinda sucks, but at least it works. To reflash I had to use the SD card since USB won't work.
I tried everything under the sun to get it working over USB. Finally had a friend with a Sprint Touch connect his using USB and it came right up, showed a little picture of his phone and worked fine. So it's definitely something in the way my Kaiser/Tilt is reporting the device to Windows. My phone is recognized by W7 and displays as a PDA, not a phone.
I'm on build 7100 and my Kaiser has been syncing flawlessly for months. My new Droid, on the other hand...No happiness yet. I've already made the call to swap the Droid for a TP2 strait across.
Been running 7 for a while now, both 32 bit and 64 bit dual boot. I've never had any issues with it not syncing, otherwise I would never be able to flash any ROMs on my phone. I even reformatted and reinstalled both after getting a legit copy from the MS Tour and it still works fine.
