Hs anyone here successfully synced their WM6 himalaya with Windows Vista over bluetooth?
I am trying to sync my device with Windows Mobile Device Center 6.1 in Vista over bluetooth but whenever i try to click on "Connect Via Bluetooth" in ActiveSync found in my device i get following error on my device:
"Cannot communicate with the PC because of the following Remote Networking error (Error 608)
Please reconnect your device if problem persists, restart the device."
I have tried both the roms i.e. helmi_c & c_shehkar's rom but couldnt get to sync my device over bluetooth with Vista. Previously i had a WM5 rom on my device and it synced with Vista flawlessly over bluetooth.
Can anyone help me on this matter???
In the file After_You_Flash.txt you can read:
"Once the device comes to life after hard reset for the first time, goto Settings-->Connections-->USB to PC and check the advance network functionality.
If you dont do this the device shall refuse get conncted to PC via USB."

Himalaya WM 5.0 was syncing just fine via BT ActiveSync.
WM 6.0 is not (yet).
Sascha
I cant even sync it using my USB cradle eventhough i have tried what was written in after_you_flash.txt. I am using Vista and is WMDC 6.1 is installed on Vista which is supposed to work with WM6. The problem is when i connect it thru USB, Vista fails to install a proper driver for it.

There Might be a solution..Only if u have XP installed on 1 of the partition..u can search the drivers in that partition
i can sync just fine with bt over vista using wm6...just had to make a new outgoing serial port on the ppc.
Using microsoft stack on both devices.
Syncing BT with Vista and WMDC
Have a look at this link. Its for WM5 but I used it with WM6 successfully.

Good luck
conecting ppc (wm6) to vista via BT solution
A few months ago, I posted on some forums this solution of my own, that enables conection vista pc and wm6 ppc via BT:
OW TO CONNECT WMDC AND PPC ON VISTA
1.-run bt on your pc
2.-run bt on your ppc
3.-bond your pc and ppc via bt, that will require password on both devices
4.-once connected, your pc will show some services your ppc is offering: activesync, voice gateway, obex, etc. and will allow you to configure some of them. you can see that because under each configurable service there is a button named configure. your pc assings by default one specific com port to activesync service, that may vary depending on free com ports available on your pc. you can see the assigned port clicking on configuration button. on the new window, you can see COM PORT, and one number. For our purposes, let´s suppose it is COM5
5.-run wmdc software, modify connections and mark on "allow bluetooth connection", which is not marked by default. close wmdc.
6.-old activesync program allows to choice com port to connect to. wmdc does not. it must be set modifing windows vista registry. so, run regedit and look for the key HKLM\software\microsoft\windows ce services\serial port. this key has usually the value "bluetooth" (without quotes). well, modify it, delete bluetooth and write COM5. (or any other com port your pc has assigned to activesync). notice that we are modifing SERIAL PORT, that means wmdc uses this service to connect.
7.-close regedit and reboot pc in order to allow changes in the registry.
8.-run again bt on both devices.
9.- run "add new bluetooth devices" on your pc. it will show again your ppc and services it provides, including activesync. configure again activesync service, and check out com port is still the same as before. in this configuration window, you will notice you can modify the NAME of the service, that is "activesync" (without quotes). well, change it, and write Serial Port.
10.-run again wmdc and it will connect to your ppc
what have we done?
1.-activesync ppc service is connected to pc using COM5
2.-wmdc is using serial port on COM5
3.-we change the name of activesync ppc service to serial port service
4.-both running on com5.
So i have installed Athine lite, PDACornerUltimate.V17, and HyperDragon IV. Athine lite and PDA v17 are both based on WM 6.5 and i can not get WM remote desktop to work it just hangs @ connecting with no error messages. Hyperdragon based on 6.1, RD works just fine.
Any1 have a solution to get this working on v6.5? i have installed Mocha Remote Client and Terminal Services 2002 and both of those work just fine on WM6.5, but i really want to be able to map my device to the machine.
im currently running Athine lite as its fast and clean.
would you mind explaining how you got it to work the first time? im a little confused about the domain and ip address and such
so what is no one having a problem with this?
same problem here, just sitting on connect...
And there's no traffic since HSDPA doesn't kick in (switching between H and 3G symbol).
I've been trying Anryl's latest ROM's. 21202 rev 8 or 9 had RDP as part of the ROM at that connected ok.
I've just upgraded to his 21500 rev 5 and RDP is not embedded so installed from the .cab I used with WM6.1 and I get the hang at 'connecting' problem.
Don't really want to downgrade but may have to...
Same here. It worked with 6.1 but I install the same cab on 6.5 (Tai BlueCalm ROM) and it just hangs when trying to connect. I can't figure it out.
I found this link in XDA Developers and it works now for WM6.5.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=3592033
Was anyone able to establish a connection with this version of rdp 6.5? I only get connection errors when I try to connect to my Vista SP 2 System (works from any Windows XP and Vista device, so its no issue with my pc).

Yes you can with an ad-hoc connection. You'll have to google it though, as no one can tell you the exact details for your network as you will have to use an internal IP address. Start by googling how to use the "ipconfig" command in dos, as that's a good way to find out internal addresses quickly.
Start here:

Thanx for Reply Stuntdouble, but need more info
Thanx for reply stuntdouble but i need some more info regarding the same.
1. Link u have forwarded - I have already did before made a adhoc connection on my laptop and connected it from my winmo.
2. winmo cannot connect thru wireless though when connected thru USB get working fine.
3. I cannot even see a different machine other than my own PC in network neighbourhood.
4. I have installed Network access from HTC but it also dont show any computer in LAN conected while connected on adhoc.
please reply if this could be sorted.
thanx in advance.
Sounds like there's a firewall blocking the connection on your pc.
Hey all, ok so my phone is detected in all others computers but not mine...

If your using windows 7 you need to download the sync center from microsoft. It was originally installed on vista but 7 doesnt have it..
just plug the usb cable and windows will do the rest
I use Win7 since 1 year and i've nothing problem for sync my phones.
All the tools for mobiles with WM are in win7.

Hello.
When in ActiveSync mode try to disable the faster dat syncronization; Win7 should now be able to detect your phone.
Otherwise try to upgrade the USB phone driver in the Device manager (letting Device Manager search the internet for the updated driver).
This worked for me
Best regards

My copy of windows 7 (64bit) which i bought on 22nd oct, didnt have the sync software originally installed. when i connected the phone for the first time it automatically downloaded the sync software.

didnt had to install anything.
plugged in my phone, windows devicecenter came up and i was all done.
sounds more like a not working USB port (driver issues) or a win7 RC release
Dear all,
sorry if this is repost.
i found it quite trouble for me, as my TYTN II suddenly stop syncing with my notebook.
it shown Microsoft ActiveSync can't recognize any port plug to TYTN ii, even if it can't sync with notebook active sync, but the phone still able to charge via USB port, anyone experience this before?
fortunately my Tytn II still able to sync via Bluetooth connection, but NOT via USB port.
Some recommended action that i've run so far:
1. uninstall & re-install microsoft activesync 4.5
2. change usb port
3. change with different notebook with activesync 4.5
4. hard reset my device
5. flash to another ROM via USB
6. etc
after doing all the thing, but the problem still there, only able to sync via Bluetooth connection.
hope anyone could give me a clue here.
thx & rgds,
What OS are you running on your notebook ?
Activsync for Windows XP and earlier
Windows Mobile Device Center for Vista, Wimdows 7
I am using Windows XP SP3 and using Microsoft Active Sync 4.5.0 build 5096
I also have tried into Windows Vista Home premium,
and couple hours ago I've tried to sync my friend O2 and it was successfull syncing with his device, and then I re-tried to sync with mine, but no hope
any clue really appreciate that
Try going to the "USB to PC" settings on your phone (probably under Settings>Connections) and unchecking "Enable faster data synchronization."
hmm, I've tried that before and still no luck,
do you think any possible hardware failure
It's possible that you have a hardware failure. However, that seems unlikely if you can flash using USB and it can connect to those other systems. Two other trivial things to try:
1) Try a different cable
2) Is "Allow USB Connections" checked in File>Connections Settings in ActiveSync? (I'm not trying to insult your intelligence, just covering the bases)

it's okay... i am looking for clue not for arguing
anyway, i've done that
1) already try 3 different cable, the last one i tried is with two devices my tytn ii and my friend O2
2) already done that too, been trying uncheck/check "Allow USB connection" in Microsoft Activesync in my Ms XP SP3 notebook.
btw flashing via SD card is applicable because it's not related with USB port right
regards,
I'm having a very similar problem. I have 2 Kaisers, one factory AT&T ROM WinMobile 6.1 and the other running a cracked 6.5 ROM.
Two computers, one Laptop running Windows 7 Ultimate x64 and a desktop running XP w/SP3 32 bit.
About a month ago all phones stopped syncing to all computers. I just get a "Unrecognized USB device" error on both computers using either phone.
Does Anyone know if MS released a USB driver update that may be causing this? I have tried every possible phone setting listed on the web, uninstalled activesync on XP and nothing seems to work. It really feels like a Windows USB issue to me. Just my gut feeling.

I have one more stab in the dark. Plug in your phone, open the device manager on your computer. There should be a device category called "Windows CE USB Devices." Expand that category, right click on the device in that category and uninstall it. Unplug your phone and plug it in again. This should reinstall the device driver. I'm guessing that the original drive got corrupted somehow.

I had a similar problem as the original poster, and it turned out to indeed be a hardware problem. The SD-card reader was faulty, and ActiveSync would not recognize the phone while an SD-card was plugged in (Nor would WM5Torage work). Removing and reinstalling drivers did not work either. The SD-card was fine, when tested in a PC reader and my Touch HD, so I figured it had to be the kaiser.
I fixed this *today* by replacing the PCB in the display part of the kaiser. Part costs about $40 (Search for item ID 380187854526 on eBay to see which part)
The disassembly/assembly instructions required are in the service manual, available at a dozen places online.
Hope this helps! (Couldn't post links )
I'm hoping SOMEONE out there can be of some assistance with my issue:
I was previously running Windows 7 RTM (64-bit Ultimate) with my Tilt (WM6.1 stock HTC ROM), and syncing with no issues.
I recently had to update my PC from the RTM to a real (paid-for) version of Windows 7, and I moved to 32-bit Ultimate (clean install) because of other application compatibility.
My Windows 7 installation now does not want to recognize my Tilt via USB (says "USB device not recognized"). I DID finally manage to get it to sync via BlueTooth, but even after removing the offending USB device from Device Manager (several times), and letting it re-discover the USB connection, it always shows "USB device not recognized".
My laptop is an HP dv9000 (1.6GHz, 4GB RAM, 250GB hd). I also sync to my Acer AspireOne netbook via USB, without any issues. I have also tried ANOTHER Tilt, and it will not recognize it, either. So the issue IS with the software on the laptop...I'm just trying to avoid re-installing the laptop again, since I already have MULTIPLE hours re-installing all the other apps on it.
Any light that anyone can shine on this issue would be great.
Reinstall
Reinstall Windows Mobile Center
Turn off advanced network functionality in USBtoPC if that fails then reinstall WMDC.

Where is Advanced Network Functionality (I appologize if this is a stupid question) located? I've been hearing about this as a possible issue, but I'm not sure if it's on the phone, or the PC, and where?

It's on the phone USBtoPC if not in settings you can find it in Windows Directory
Found my answer...
Well, it turns out it was a bad USB socket on my Tilt. It makes good enough connection to charge the battery, but not for data transfer. I got another Tilt, and I put it on the same cradle to the PC, and it connects up just fine.
Thanks for the suggestions!
