[Q] Windows Phone Device Manager not working - HD7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hey guys, ive been searching for a few days for this, but neither here on this forum nor on any other i was able to find the solution. My problem ist that the Windows phone device manager is not launching. Yes i have the new .Net framework even reinstalled it a few times, also the SDK. My phone is unlocked, i installed the new custom rom by ansar on my hd7. Please help me, i got angry with my phone LOL

The user guide could help you easily. The synchronization is made only with zune
no "Windows phone device manager" with WP7

oh i noticed that zune update pops up when i want to launch wpdm ?!? big LOL

Hey...does it mean that there is no WPDM for HTC HD7???

WPDM does work on the HD7.
@OP: Did you install the Mango Beta tools on your PC & Mango Beta Zune client? I had this problem too. I'd launch WPDM & it'd just close on it own. After uninstalling the beta software from my PC & re-installing the official release (non Mango) software, it works again.

Hi...
i have installed Zune 4.7 & windows phone developer tools on my machine... but still unable to launch windows phone device manager
the moment i click on wp device manager exe file...it appear under Processes in Task manager for few seconds and then disappear ... i have tried reinstalling device manager etc but no luck...pls advise...

Don't have any problem with my unlock nodo with wpdm and zune 4.7 in my HD7

oohhh i think i have the beta version of zune installed on my pc, will check now and tell you guys if it worked

well still not working, im getting mad right now seriously

Problems, bricked? No idea

Hey guys, in the past i have upgraded from the stock os to what ever the newest on here was at the time.
But some time after vista came out i downloaded a possible offical upgrader from o2s xda website, this heap of crap failed half way through upgrading with no error messages - i assume it was becuase i was running on vista at the time.
So after that, once we turn on the device we just see what i assume is the bootloader, When connected it says "USB v1.06" and if we disconnect it says "Serial" instead of usb.
Some research today provided there are vista drivers to be downloaded, so i installed those (On windows server 2008 x64 R2 beta! which is based on vista rtm) the driver seemed to install fine,
I downloaded "Syed Ather WM 6.1 Dark Edition" and ran HimaUpgradeUt_noID.exe but this errors out before even running with the following:
---------------------------
HimaUpgradeUt_noID.exe - Application Error
---------------------------
The application failed to initialize properly (0xc0000135). Click OK to terminate the application.
So any general direction here on how to get my little device back would be nice thanks guys
it requires .Net Framework 2.0
More Info here : http://support.realtyware.com/article.aspx?id=10015
Funny! Nice of it to give such a useful error message!
Thank you for your input, i will install now
The installer says i already have the framework, so this is strange.
oh, u running Windows Vista , get the latest version of WMDC - Windows Mobile Device Center and idk if the x64 version of the drivers ever worked..but you could alwas try.. i suggest u to to install the rom on a pc with XP
Thanks for the fast responces etc
I got this sorted last night
Welcome back to life little xda

flahing using Windows 7 beta

Has anyone got this to work? No one mentions Win7 in the thread about replacing drivers to get Vista to work and don't want to mess up my ActiveSync (which works) if I have another choice? Any advice would be great!
P.S. I don't have a XP machine available, converted both to Win7 beta.
I would like to think there would be no problem you'll use the same WMDC as vista, but if you not sure flash the rom from the sd card, just rename it to blacimg.nbh (.nhb whatever? lol) and copy it to the SD main directory, once you enter bootloader follow the on screen instructions and it will flash the rom, I prefer this as it is faster then using the pc
Windows 7 is working excellent

Hello,
I have a Windows 7 latest build working. Just install WDMC (same version as vista mentioned above!)
It's working without any modifications and even much more stable then vista. It uses also less memory then Vista.
It is a very good choice apart from Windows XP -> Vista is the Beta version of Windows 7!!! ;-)
Many Thanks
Roman

I had nearly every build of windows 7 started with 6801 over beta 1 (7000) up to 7068 now and it worked on every version 32bit and 64bit! Just use the mobile device center ;-)
I've had no problems with win 7 synched to my Touch phone
No Problems with Win 7 no need to install anything to contact phone just use the mobile device center.
Ditto, works perfectly. You'll find Windows 7 installs some drivers the first time you connect your phone which may mean your flash times out while it waits. Just let the drivers install and the re-run the RUU and it'll start to flash
Running Windows 7 RC1 (7068) and no issues whatsoever
i couldnt HardSPL on windows 7 but other than that it works great with the HD.
I was trying to use USPL and that doesn't work (get USB in bootloader but the exe fails as can't find the usb port), guess I could try HardSPL but liked the idea of USPL. can you run USPL from the memory card?
did you change the usb drivers to the old ones? and turn off usb in active sync (on the pc)
I've done it on Windows 7 like the other users with no issues.

Install Vmware Workstation 6.5 and then create a new windows XP virtual machine.
Map you usb to the VM whenever you want to flash using USPL and not only. It works perfect!
ok thanks guys, sounds like using the old drivers will work, but Vmware sounds like a perfect solution will try that.

If you don't mind may I ask where you get the download for RC1 7068? I tried through MS site and got a license key but no download link, it said download was no longer available. Would like to try it.
works fine on build 7048

This is funny.... I would love to know how you have RC1 when its not even been produced yet / hit testing stages of RC
To clear up some comments on Windows RC1. The leaked version of Windows 7 build 7068 in the license agreement says Release Candidate so people are thinking its RC1.
No biggie.
For those who want to upgrade from a previous version of Windows 7 Beta to Build 7068 understand that it WILL break your Windows Mobile Center 6.1 - when it tells you that its not compatible with the 6.1 version in the upgrade it means it. Don't mess with it. Install a fresh copy or you will not get it to work. Even if you download the 6.1 version to re-install.
For those who are installing the HTC for the first time it will say that it cannot find it. That's okay. Once it cannot find it - refresh your windows update and it will find a new driver. once that is installed it will try to install a another driver and it can't find that one. Refresh Update again and it will then find the final driver and Windows Mobile Center will recognize the Touch HD.
Guys, I have ActiveSync working (I am on Win7 7000 however) but was trying to flash (and yes, I had 'unticked' allow USB). This is what was failing. Can't find an XP disc so will try the older drivers as per the solution for Vista. Thanks for all the help.
search for VistaRUU on google for the older driver. It should work just fine under windows 7, I've used it to flash my friends' hermes.

[Tutorial] Upgrade to 7720 HD7 Mango RTM Chevron Unlocked

Hi Everyone,
First of all, I do not endorse the paternity of the files published here.
I just want to publish a guide to ease up your upgrade to Mango RTM and keep your HD7 chevron unlocked.
Prerequisites:
- Windows 7 32 or 64 bits
- Zune version 4.7
- Windows Phone Device Manager/TouchXperience (1.3): http://www.touchxperience.com/en/applications/viewcategory/22.html
- Cotulla RSPL/HSPL: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1195647
- 7720 package: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1215501
- Ansar's custom rom for HD7: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1201169
- a custclear provxml file (see attachment)
- mango update package (see attachment)
Install procedure:
- Install RSPL/HSPL on your phone (rspl was enough for me)
- Back in bootscreen, install Ansar's custom rom (this one is unlocked + prevent relock)
- Once restarted, install thru marketplace (very important, do no sideload it) config connection from HTC and run it once
- Fire up windows phone device manager and let him install touchXperience on your phone.
- Once started and connected thru WPDC/touchXperience, copy in your phone windows folder the file custclear provxml
- After that, with zune not running , run with admin privileges the file "update" found in mango update package and let it do his stuff
- When finished, Zune should open and warn you an update is available (7403), do it
- After this one, zune should prompt you to update to 7712 (if not, just do an update search thru zune settings
- If all goes well, you should after this be in Mango beta 7712
- Disconnect your phone and uninstall zune completely
- From the package 7720, install the new zune version and the update wp file
- Reconnect your phone but be sure you don't have zune running
- Copy from the package 7720 the folder RCToRTM to the root of your c drive (c:\RCToRTM)
- From this folder, run the file ISVTo7720.bat with admin privileges
- If all goes well, your phone should begin its update to 7720
- If your phone updates with no trouble, once in 7720, run once again the htc config connection app to install the custclear provxml you copied earlier in your phone windows folder.
- That's it after, you should have a Mango rtm phone unlocked!

Yea same here said touchXperience has been revoked by ms pls uninstall......
This was the fix duh - If your phone updates with no trouble, once in 7720, run once again the htc config connection app to install the custclear provxml you copied earlier in your phone windows folder.
Also the update zune was able to do all the updates 7403 ect did not need to downgrade......
BTW: BIG THANKS!!!!!!

I unlocked on beta then was relocked by the time i got to 7720 so i had to do it all over again..... Also i do not think touchXperience is going to work in mango.....

Im having the same issues. Cant update to 7712 after 7403. =/
I'm having 2 questions.....
- Where in this procedure can we add the "language string"?
- Will there be a backup made from the phone, so you won't lose settings etc....
good job worked fine here and direct
Issue
The only issue that i have with this is that it doesnt upgrade my Firmware or Radio in zune. I have upgraded my Radio with HSPL and have my phone unlocked but I never got the choice to upgrade it. I would like to know how if i can get the firmware upgrade w/o zune. I am using Tmous HD7 and I think it might be because the base rom to start all this off is EU.
Never Mind HTC took it down.

Not happening here, you sure you're using Ansar's custom HD7 rom?
For those having trouble with relocking, you need to install WPDM and touchxperience before updating to 7403 and leave zune closed. Than copy the provxml file via WPDM to the windows folder of your phone. Than update but do not use config connexion until you're in 7720. Hope this helps!

Hi, I can't update from 7403 to 7720..
Zune isn't giving me options to update, it says that my phone is up to date.
I've done everything in the sequence, but still a problem..
What you said (with ISV_Provisioning_Live.exe), isn't getting to help as is see..
Stuck on a white screen from the Provision like an hour..
Someone has a solution for me ?

[Q] Installing Custom ROM - RUU Fails ; Error 266

Let me preface this by saying in the first few days of owning my WP7 phone, I've Seen a lot of howto threads, but almost none on this, esp. for the HD7.
So here's what I'm trying to do, in this order(To my US, T-Mobile HD7):
1)Install "RUU_Schubert_HTC_Europe_1.69.401.01_Radio_5.54.09. 21_22.33b.50.10_NoDo_custom_by_ansar"
2)Chevron Unlock
3)Upgrade to Mango - 7720
So, in this situation, I'm stuck at step 1. BTW, I'm Using a Macbook pro Running 10.6.8, *running parallels 6/Windows 7*
What I've Done So Far...
1. Put HSPL 3.1 on my HD7
2. Downloaded All Rom Files and Mango Update Files
3. Downloaded & Installed Zune, WMDC, HSPL exe's.
4. Downloaded & Installed WP7 SDK
My Problem
I put the phone into bootloader mode, connect it to windows, everything recognizes and drivers installed the first time, RUU goes through, DOES NOT READ ANY CURRENT ROM INFO, and gives me ERROR 266 (screencap)
So... What do?
PS: I've done a lot of searching, please don't be a smartass and read and then tell me to lurk moar. I do NOT have a windows PC right now, and since my CD drive is broken, I dont really have a way to bootcamp either...
You may get the 266 error if you are running a virtual environment. I see you are using a Macintosh. You will may not be able to proceed with the update with this method.

Cannot Flash Custom Rom Error 266

As of now, my SPL is downgraded to 1.18, with RSPL and HSPL already installed. I downloaded Windows Mobile Device center, I'm running Windows 7 x86...
I always get the "not connected" message with the device center no matter what, even though I see Windows Mobile drivers in device panel. I've downloaded Deepshining Rom, double clicked on the ROM updater and first thing is it does not show my current image on the phone, when I keep clicking next, I get to the installation screen, with a 0% and then I get the Error 266 message.
I've restarted numerous times, not sure what is going on.
windows driver
drivers all installed in the PC? see in Device Manager check your wp7 device installed correctly, bite also uninstall and re-install wp7 device drivers. I think the error in communication between the PC and the device of wp7
I'm suffering the same problem. Any idea how to counter it? Having HD7 with CotullaHSPL installed. Previously installed deepshine custom room
same problem
me too i have the same problem and i can't find any answer of that
pls can anyone help here that would be great
You need to run in XP both Zune and ActiveSync for the connection to take place.
