hi,
I think my cable or port on my diamond is a little screwed, active sync stopped working just a week after I got the phone.
I posted the problem here:
http://social.microsoft.com/Forums/...c502e361-e0e4-4d26-9ead-7f2680ff160e/?lc=1033
I got Nothing so far. I did all the active sync troubleshooting I could when I noticed that when I charged my phone, the dialog to choose active sync or disk driver shows up!!? As if i plugged it into a pc, also I do plug is into any ANY pc as a Disk Drive, it doesn't work at all.
IOW.. when I connect my phone to *charge* a dialog shows up asking me whether I want Active Sync or Disk Drive as if i connected it to my PC. Nothing happens after that, and it will not connect to active sync or disk drive to ANY Pc (tried multiple pcs).
What could the problem be? Should I try htc tech support?
Please help, this phone is only a month old!
Thanks so much
Gideon
Ok.....I'm not sure what you're trying to say. What's the message you get on your screen when you connect your phone to the pc via activesync?
I'm sorry, I was freaking out just a little while writing that. I rephrased some of it.
I get the same dialog "Active Sync or Disk Drive" when I connect it to my PC, but nothing happens after that, and it doesn't work on any pc at all. And its driving me nuts, to send a file to my phone from my desktop(my main computer) I have to connect it to my laptop via a lan wire, then send the file over there, and send it from the laptop via WiFi to the phone! ! =X
Oh btw, I've also tried other mini USB cables. Same thing.
Thanks so much
Gideon
What version of activesync are you running? Download the latest version from here. Activesync runs on all OS versions from Win 2000 SP4 upto XP SP3. If you have Vista installed on your machine try this link.
Would you be able to paste a screen shot of the error message and the dialog box?
I use the latest 4.5, but that does'nt seem to be the problem.
It doesn't work as a Disk Drive on ANY computer? There isn't any message or error, on the phone I get the dialog "Connect To Pc" dialog, I choose DISK DRIVE but it doesn'nt work, not on MY pc not on ANY PC!! ='( And just nothing happens.
I've given up on active sync, i've read every post here on xda and elsewhere, I simple can't get it working, I don't have active sync on my pc now. On my laptop with *Vista* however, the windows mobile device center manages to connect and sync with my phone via *bluetooth* only
Thanks so much.

Take out the memory card from your phone before connecting it to activesync and try again. Tell me what happens.

You cant take out the diamond's memory, it's build in internal memory m8, not like the touch pro's microsd or anything so he wouldnt be able to try/ do that
I've had active sync problems as well, I normally find it's simply the sh*tti microsoft OS's/ programme's problem & if you re-install or update the active sync prog or windows mobile centre if your using vista, it then see's the diamond again no problems & let's you then set it up correctly, so I'd try all that 1st before you go phoning htc or your carrier to complain m8
Had the exact same problem with my Diamond.
The fix was; return to reseller/change of mainboard in the phone.
A known problem with some Diamonds according to the technician who did the repair.
Humm, I ran into a similar problem with my Diamond when I bought it less then a week ago. Nothing happened when I connected the with the bundled cable though it did work at first. So I took a normal one (from the ps3 controller to be exact) and it worked fine, I've not messed with the bundled cable since.
Solution for me
Hi,
I had this exact problem, wouldn't sync with any PC/laptop tried all the active sync's and tried all the options in there. Also tried multiple cables and still no joy.
This needs sending to HTC for them to fix. Go here:
http://service.europe.htc.com/Tracking.aspx and book it in for repair.
This is a known fault that happens with these phones and they fix it without charge.
However, don't be like me and try and fix it yourself, otherwise you'll be £70 lighter. I thought one of the mini usb prongs wasn't making contact (as it still charged ok) and after messing about the little plastic in the mini usb port came out. HTC said I damaged it and so had to pay for repair. If I had just left it alone they would have fixed it.
Also when they fix it they should load on for you Rom 1.93 which I'm finding is making the phone so much better. Its worth the money I've had to pay just for that TBO its soooo much slicker now.
The reason why this fault has developed (that some people have said) is that some car chargers are delivering too much power for the port especially when plugged into the car charger and then starting your car. I've seen that the normal charger delivers 5 volts and 1 amp so i've bought a car charger that does the same volts/amps from here:
http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.688~r.53733725
I've used it once and it hasn't fried my Diamond yet. (it did however come up asking to activesync or usb drive when it was plugged in unlike the standard charger which doesn't prompt at all)
You also buy the official car charger which is more £££
You'll be without your phone for a week at least and you'll have to install your apps on it again.
Hope that helps
Hi,
I know this is an old thread, but thought i would add what i found as google brings this thread up when you search for this issue. I read through the solutions and through i would remove and reinstall mobile device centre. I found it had gone! Dont know why. I didnt uninstall it and havent ran a system restore etc. Anyway i reinstalled it and problem solved I think Bluetooth might have also been interfering.
Hey everyone..
I would really love to connect a full usbkeyboard to my Magic 32A..
But then i connect my logitech G15, nothing happens..
I think it because of the need of a HID driver.. But i am not sure..
Does anyone now where i can get a HID driver for android?
//Reffer
lol. No. Just no
LMAO. FAIL.
If I remember correctly, there's a lot of posts about this on the official SDK mailinglist/forum/whatever. If you google it I'm sure you'll find something.
And shoo to the last two posters!
Hey mockillo. Thx for posting a answer i actually could use to something..
The only post i could find on SDK was this one: http://groups.google.com/group/andr...hl=en&lnk=gst&q=usb+keyboard#7397813348f7a9fa
And they say that android not support BLuetooth HID.. But nothing about normal.. I think i will try to make a topic in there too..
That's not how USB works. If you want a full keyboard you'll have to get a bluetooth keyboard & wait for the bluetooth SDK to be released (maybe rooted users can use bluetooth keyboards already?)
USB host
does anyone know if Magic hardware supports USB host? If so, it would be possible with 2.1
Just check this out: _ttp://jkontherun.com/2010/02/17/how-to-add-a-usb-keyboard-to-an-android-phone/
appearently MAKE magazine did an article about it. I say it just might work. but you may want to talk to some devs to see how to get into usb OTG mode with a mytouch.
anyone tried this?
on my last check no dev is building with USB HOST built into there roms ( things can connect to phone) unlike the normal usb slave (your phone can connect to things ) , plus if you were to use your phone as a host it would need to power the connected device (ie. Keyboard)
some good news ...
Most roms built off of CM source have a bluetooth HID stack... So like me i use a bluetooth keyboard (logitech media board for ps3) and it works great. And drains the battery no more than a bluetooth head set.
Sent from my HTC Sapphire using Tapatalk
same goes to me
haha. A funny guy... lol.....
You should find driver for that keyboard... I think...
Try v.mote this is exactly what you want... just the opposite (the phone become a keyboard..)
I am trying to use WP connector for mac but its seems to be working oneway from Phone to Mac.
I wonder if anyone knows how can i use it to sync music and photos from mac to phone ?
The following help file from Microsoft contains directions on how to do this:
http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=203366&clcid=0x409 (PDF)
all you have to do is buy a pc
I did it earlier. I started up the Windows Phone 7 connector and it told me to connect my phone and I did. From there it works almost exactly like iTunes. It will sync any of the playlists you made in iTunes to the phone. Of course if you have no playlists in iTunes... then it might not work.

Well i do have the playlists and it is not even syncing photos as well.
I want to know if there is a way that I can tranfer all my files from a MAC to my phone. I used to plug my HD2 in and it would pop right up like a folder on my desktop. WinPho7 wont do that. I can not download anythign on my work computer, and I use the phone's storage every single day. All I have on my work comp is iTunes and it doens't show up like the iPhone would. This is very disappointing...
Vikramdhani, it won't sync photos if you don't have iPhoto 9 or above. I don't have it and mine won't sync either. So you have to update your iPhoto or wait until Microsoft releases an updated version of the Windows Phone 7 connector (which I'm not even sure will fix the problem, I'm just assuming they'd make it compatible with older versions of iPhoto.)
Jeimygirl, it doesn't work like the HD2. You won't see it on your desktop on your Mac. It works kind of like the iPhone/iPod. It will only show up in the Windows Phone 7 connector program. It works similar to iTunes but it doesn't show up in iTunes. You have to use the Windows Phone 7 connector program in order to sync anything to the phone. Unless someone figures out and releases a workaround.

Thanks. i knew this is how it worked I had an iPhone before, and I can't download anything on the MAC, so I'm pretty SOL. It was my biggest drawback to upgrading to the HD7. Second would be multitasking. But I figured the rest was worth it. i was tired of soft resetting my HD2 2-3 times daily. I'm just hoping the developers come out with an app that can turn the phone into a mass media storage like the HD2 or G1. I used those as my "iPod" in my car thought my stereo too.
Not sure if that's even possible on the HD7 but I would GLADLY pay for this app, and that says a lot for me as I normally never buy apps.

so there are people in this world who use Mac and Windows phone.....
sorry mate but could not help....

I hope you know that it is not a IOS connector but Mac OS connector seems like it was a hardware or software issue on the phone i had, guess what i returned it back to TMobile
I got the connector working no problem but of course it took forever to drop a couple thousand tracks the first time. My problem is it seems to try and update all 2k tracks when I plug it in attempting to snag a couple of new albums. Is there anyway to make it only capture the new albums and not try and run the stupid slow update all sequence?
Driving me nuts I had it running for almost 45 minutes and it was only 75% complete...FOR 2 fraggin albums I wanted to add...Man I honestly really like the new OS and phone but Microsoft didn't do themselves any favors with this dumb sync system. Let me drag and drop what I want, KISS!!!
(or I am doing it wrong and I am not very bright...which I KNOW is the case more often then not! )
I have my Moto X which is an awesome device, BUT
My transfer speed is horrible. It takes 5 minutes to transfer a single picture, ~ 200kb from my desktop to my phone.
I have tried various USB cords, both OEM and other cords, as well as other computers. This is the only device that performs this slowly.
Can anyone help me with this?

I don't know what to tell you besides that's not normal. Maybe you aren't using the most updated drivers for moto. Go download Moto device manager and see if it fixes it. I transferred Ill say 500 but don't quote me pictures in less than 5 minutes. I did a couple times stop transferring them because it would say 30 minutes to transfer but then again i didn't stop it once and it eventually went back down to less than 5 minutes so I don't know. Drivers is my best advice
Any other ideas? Not working, still taking 5 minnutes to transfer a small item over. -_-
Even contacted Moto tier 2 support who was completely useless. Basically told me that im SOL, goodluck.

click reply next time if you want me to know you responded to me. Otherwise it was just change I came by this and remembered posting in it.
Anyway, so you installed moto device manager and had your phone plugged in with MTP so that the device manager ran and updated all of your drivers correct?
You must also have the right cable which I know you said you tried multiple including the one that came with the device. Im assuming you tried multiple usb ports because 3.0 might be causing the problem. Have you tried enabling usb debugging? I'm assuming so.
have you tried a different picture? maybe it is something with the picture itself...
I'm honestly thinking maybe you downloaded moto device manager but then it never updated the phone when you plugged it in. Basically if a web page is not automatically opening every time you plugged your phone in then you didn't update the drivers through moto device manager or you are not connected to the device with MTP but the other option which im blanking on for some reason and don't feel like plugging my phone in. let me know if none of that cleared anything up.

I've tried multiple pictures, and no go. Downloaded the official moto drivers from motorola's site and still the same.
It seems like for some reason the phone wont allow a transfer for the first few minutes when I try to send something over to it. I dont have it encrypted or anything like that, and my USB debugging has been off.
Why would USB 3.0 be causing the problem? All the ports on all the machines I have tried are 3.0... I dont have any USB 2.0 devices...

IDK why usb 3.0 seems to have issues with some things but it does. You can't flash some stuff on your phone with a 3.0 usb port because it will give you errors. I think the technology just isn't fine tuned for all devices yet. Find a 2.0 port or 1.0 and test it out. I use 1.0 ports because I'm never moving enough stuff that the speed really matters and I know those ports are always stable.
I have installed all drivers i could fine. Whenever i plug the watch into my pc it doesn't even make the chime sound, nor does the device show up in device manager.
Can someone please help me, i just got my watch two days ago and would like to enable more cores because mines quite laggy on android wear 2.0.
If you have enabeld USB Debugging ?
This you can do in the Developers Options.
If you dont see Developers Options under SETTINGs then you must first enable the Developer Options...
To do this ...
Go to SETTINGS there in Devices Info and then TAP 7 times at Buildnumber... after this go back to Settings and you see the Developers Options and there you can enable USB Debugging
Sorry for my bad english...
i have already done that also. ive tried about everything i can fine. the dock charges the watch just fine, i have also tried different usb cords. is there any way to adb over wifi?

Hey did you found any solution?
I am on the same boat, the watch can charge and works (laggy) fine, but I am unable to let it be recognize in any way.
I tried same USB cord with several phones and it's ok, but the watch cannot be in any way recognized...
Someone please help us out lmao, the watch is so damn laggy and battery is awful.
I managed to do adb over wifi on the watch, but obivously this do not help with unlocking bootloader or anything in fastboot mode..

Did you all download and try the latest adb? I was having this same issue and turned out that once I updated the adb from the Android sdk, everything worked perfectly.
Uhm, I'll try thank you!
I downloaded all the driver I could get, even from official android.com site, but still the issue is same:
When I plug USB cable in the PC, I get no chime sound or request of anything: tried putting the watch on cradle in standard running mode, in fastboot mode, or in recovery or even powered off.
Same result: no reaction from PC at all.
Tried connecting various phones with same cable as the watch cradle usb cable, everytime the driver kick-in and phone is detected and system either use Google USB driver or ask for drivers.
I read somewhere on the internet that if phone is not connected with Wear app the smartwatch is not connected? But how to do that if the watch is in fastboot mode for unlocking?
Btw I also found that the system update was to version NXG47C and now the fastboot menù is indicating that bootloader is version LENOK22b (secure boot is enabled in green and lock state is locked).
I am lost, even the SDK Android drivers did not change a thing, but more than anything else I do not get why PC do nothing (not even chime sound) when plugging in, my cradle is original and all things come from its box from 2014..I never tried before connection so I do not know if that was working before, but I am starting to think I need a new cradle maybe...

I have 2 cradles (that -same thing as you- work with anything else instantly) and since the NXG47C/LENOK22b combo simply do not work, so it seems it isn't a cradle problem. :crying:

Sadly, no.
I was just looking to cradle options but what you are reporting here now makes me believing that really, it's something else...but probably only LG knows why they did that...Only reason I can think of, is to make us users purchase newer models locking out features that make it still good with AW 2.0
It's really a pity.
My only other idea is to try with a different OS, as atm I got only Win 10 64bit Creator Update , but I could use a old HDD and try with a Win 7 32bit...but it's a LOOOOOOOOONG shot as from my experience at least the chime sound should be there...:crying:
Oh! Different OS - I forgot to mention it before, sorry: I tried on Windows 10 and MacOS.
Again, both work fine with other Android USB-debugging-active devices.
Sorry for adding more bad news to an already bad story.. :/
I would have guessed this, sadly.
Well, this means something needs to be found to reactivate the fastboot connection from the devs...meanwhile, I found that the old dev options to lower the scale of the animations improves a bit the slugginess of the watch...
Let's hope someone notices this thread and find a way to help us out, as I'm 100% no-dev...

Exactly same thing about me. USB plugged in and nothing happen, I tried win 10 OS and win7 - same problem - I also thought it is cradle problem, I almost bought a new one but after you wrote I dont't think I could help look we are stucked with AW2.0 and only thing is hope someone will find solution for this...
I am still stuck on this situation, no way to make watch try the USB connection.
Could it be possible that the latest update disabled the USB ADB?
Can someone confirm if the USB ADB files are still in the package?
And if not, is it possible to add them back using for example ADB over wifi, through maybe the original recovery if not possible with system running?

It is really anointing when some other users write about downgrade without problems. I'm thinking how is it possible, so everyone got the same version of AW2.0, it is really weird
I have 2.0 on gwr and my win 8 recognised them. I just installed adb usb drivers in same way as I did for Huatch: as Motorola android sooner composite adb interface.
Where do I find these famous motorola android sooner drivers for w7 x64?

Probably installed with drivers for motorola phone. The thing is I did not install this exact adb driver on purpose. I found it as I was trying out anything to make the watch connect to PC. It was a pure luck.
same thing happen to me!
I thought it was the cradle, I have 3 cradles, though all is not original, all fail. so I though the cradle only can charge. But I vaguely remember I once using it to flash, but my memory is not so reliable, so it can be the original or the 'not original'.
I can connect ADB using the bluetooth debug mode and go to fastboot, but even in fastboot mode, my pc still cannot detect the watch.
