Hi, can anyone help?
Running Vista from my laptop and want to synch my Vario II with it (currently synched Vario II with XP running desktop). Tried to instal ActiveSync but laptop tells me it's already there but I can't find it in the programmes list and it won't find it on a search.
My laptop does recognise my memory card in the Vario II but won't recognise that it's actually in the Vario II - i'm confused. When I conect the Vario II I'm prompted for a password several times but I can't actually synch.
Vario II is running WM5, have considered WM 6.1 but would I still be able to sync with the XP desk top if I install it.
All a bit confusing and frustrating this, I'm not a techie so basic answers please (if possible!!!)
Thanks
backtap
im a veteran when it come to vista. but i still hate it!!!!!!!
check this link from microsoft:
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/devicecenter.mspx
youll find the activesync for vista its called "Windows Mobile Devie Center."
vista sucks in the sense of all those security related stuffs.. wmd sucks.. big time, dun ever attempt to do reflashing of roms at vista, u may end up a bricked phone
nice help thanks
Active Sync is for Xp..
Windows Mobile Device Center is for Vista..
So you need to DL Windows Mobile Device Center

ooops, I forgot..
Good luck!

Vista works fine. You can get your phone bricked by not doing it right, it happens in all operating systems.
vista uses wmdc - windows mobile device center & not activesync. so go to the link mentioned on the 2nd post & dload wmdc. should be fine afterwards.
1 thing that bugs me with vista/wmdc is that everytime you sync your device, it changes your device ID to "windowsmobileXX" for my prophet and now to "HTCXX" on my touch pro where XX is a number. So some of my programs that need device ID for registration gets screwed up.
edit: i've never had any luck with flashing on vista for my prophet needed to use vmware running xp. haven't flashed my touch pro yet...
Here is a guide i wrote to flash Htc Himalaya's aka xda2 devices in Vista, the steps should be same :

I've almost but given up on this, can someone please help me. I'm trying to get my HTC TyTN II to sync with my windows 7 ultimate laptop (64 bit)
I'm trying to install windows mobile device centre 6.1 (the latest, I've downloaded and tried it again a few minutes ago). I've tried both the 32 bit and 64 bit versions of the software and it just won't install It gives me the dialog box asking me 'Do you want the windows mobile device centre to make changes to your computer' If I click on 'yes' that's it, nothing else happens
Is there any hope? I can't believe microsoft could have released such a ****ty os with no proper testing with windows mobile devices. This used to work flawlessly with activesync
Please, any help will be really appreciated. I've seen some posts about people having luck with this
Run it as administrator = problem solved.
Hi,
I have difficulties to synchronize my T-Mobile MDA Vario III with my new laptop with Win 7. I am getting the WMDC Error whenever I attempt to synchronize my mobile phone with my laptop. I guess there is something wrong with either my new laptop or WMDC because I managed to synchronize the same mobile phone with my old laptop (Win XP) which runs the old 'good' activesync.
The relevant specs of the involved device, software and systems including the summary of the synchronization issue follows:
My mobile phone:
T-Mobile MDA Vario III aka HTC TyTN 2 aka Kaiser aka Tilt
ROM version: 3.31.110.3 WWE
ROM date: 09/01/08
Radio version: 1.70.18.02
Protocol version: 25.83.40.02H
System: Windows Mobile 6.1 Professional
CE OS 5.2.19212 (Build 19212.1.0.3)
My laptop:
Acer Aspire 5536
System: Windows 7
Windows Mobile Device Center 6.1.6965
What I have tried so far:
Reinstalled WMDC and rebooted my laptop (several times)
Reset my mobile phone each time before attempting the synchronization
Turned off firewall & antivirus on both laptop and mobile phone while synchronizing
Upgraded my mobile to the latest ROM (from 1.5 to 3.3)
Ran Windows updates including all optional ones I could think of that could help
Unchecked the 'Enable advanced network functionality' option in Settings/Connections/USB to PC on my Vario
Played with different settings on WMDC
What I know that works:
ActiveSync on my old Toshiba laptop (Win XP) where I can transfer files between my Vario phone and Toshiba laptop.
Bluetooth works between my Vario mobile and Acer laptop as well as Toshiba laptop, which enables me to transfer files but not synchronize contacts & emails with Outlook on Acer.
Is there anything out there that I can still try? Does anyone have any advice for me? I would really like this to make work as I do not want to revert back to my old laptop and XP because of this silly sync issue...
I would be extremely grateful for any useful tips...
Many thanks!
Tom
Anyone with the working WMDC synchronization?
All,
I wonder if there is anyone with the same phone (T-Mobile MDA Vario III aka HTC TyTN 2 aka Tilt) who has managed to make it synchronize with your PC using WMDC (Win 7)?
If yes, was it straightforward or did you have to use any workaround or tweak your device or PC?
I would like to get to the bottom of this issue. There must be a solution out there!
Many thanks,
Tom
What error do you get?
Have you try another usb cable?.
I get a generic (non-specific) WMDC Error - see the Attachment.
As for the USB cable, I do not think there is anything wrong with it as it works fine with my other laptop (Win XP) where I can synchronize successfully using ActiveSync.
I wonder what else I can try?
Thank you,
Tom

Ohh boy, It's the first time I see this dude. Does clicking on the help gives you any description of the error?
Try another cable just in case, have U click activesync from your phone and see if something happens?
Check on your PC Hardware also and see if you have an issue with your usb ports.
Have you tried looking here ?

As for the generic WMDC Error, the Windows Mobile Device Center does not give any information about the Error (nothing about the Error in the help either).
However, I have checked the Microsoft Event Viewer and I found the following Error message there: "the Windows Mobile-based device failed to connect due to communication (0x80072745) failure (see data for failure code)." - see the Event Properties and Event Details attachments for more information. Any idea what this error means and more importantly how it can be fixed?
I have attached the following screen shots for more information:
Device Manager
HTC USB Sync Properties - General
Event Properties
Event Details
The ActiveSync on my phone seems to work fine. It says: "connected" whenever I plug the USB cable into my laptop. What is more, I was able to synchronize my Vario phone with my older XP laptop without any difficulties.
Many thanks!

I have run windows update and it seems that all drivers are updated - see the attachment for more information.
The only useful piece of information that could possibly help to get to the bottom of this issue is the one I can see in the Microsoft Event Viewer which says: "the Windows Mobile-based device failed to connect due to communication (0x80072745) failure (see data for failure code)."

I have managed to synchronize successfully the same mobile phone Vario III with a different laptop running Vista and WMDC 6.1, which makes me think that there is no problem with my mobile phone or USB cable but with my laptop that runs Win 7... Now, I guess I need to dig even deeper to localize the issue on my laptop...

I'm running Windows 7 ultimate and WMDC works like charmed. Just curious, are you running as administrator right?
Yes, I login as administrator.
I have found more information about which services need to be running and set as automatic when running WMDC - see the link below.
http://www.pocketpcfaq.com/faqs/wmdc/services.htm
Do you have the same services running and set as automatic in your system?
Anyway, I am running all of them but there is no difference - still getting the WMDC Error... :-(
Many thanks!
Tom
After having spent the whole weekend on troubleshooting the sync issue, I am slowly running out of new ideas...
There are so many posts on internet regarding this issue but it appears to me that there is no silver bullet to resolve it.
In my humble view, I believe that what could fix the sync issue is to find the root cause of the following error that I get whenever I try to sync:
Copied from the Event Viewer: "the Windows Mobile-based device failed to connect due to communication (0x80072745) failure (see data for failure code)."
Any suggestions how to tackle this communication error?
Many thanks!
Tom
P.S. Does anybody know when the next upgrade of WMDC is scheduled to be released by Microsoft? I wonder if there is any other software out there that can do what WMDC does so as I do not have to use WMDC to sync?
Hi all,
I have a problem here after I upgraded my laptop to OS Windows 7 and installed Windows Mobile Device Center.
at first, I can connect to PC via USB (transfer file OK) but can't sync with MS Outlook 2007. and then at another connection, i lose my phone contact at my device (but only older contacts, new stored contacts still exist),
but now i can't connect at all. PC & Windows Mobile Device Center software not showing any activities.
I've tried to re-installed my Windows Mobile Device Center software and hard reset my TyTn II but still can't connect. Icon on PDA, only charging icon. I tried with connection via bluetooth and it works, but I prefer a connection w/ USB cable.
My question:
How can I enable the USB cable connection?
need your suggestion please...
Sorry for my bad English...

I can connect through 64 bit and not 32 bit, which is REALLY weird since 32 bit drivers are, you know, MORE. Anyway, its made by Microsoft, what do you expect. I believe its a marketing scam
Theory: Make a windows device = 200$ income
Make new Windows 7 = 200$ income
But thats probalby just 400$ from each user WHO HAS BOTH!!. well, thats not enough. Make those two products not work together = customers telephone = $$$ from calls. Then, make only 64 bit drivers so 32 bit users HAVE to upgrade = another 200$.
Am I right?? Anyway all this is out of the thread so,
Possible fix :
1. Remove the device from device manager and disconnect Kiaser from PC (see http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb456985.aspx)
2. Uninstall Windows Mobile device center.
3. Reboot and reinstall WMDC.
4. Reconnect your Kaiser and hopefully the drivers should be reloaded.
Hope I helped
Start/settings/connection/usb to pc and uncheck "enable advanced network fuctionality
Dear Lovers of Mobile "Oldtimers"
I got a SWISSCOM branded Tytn II with Windows mobile 6.5 on it, WLAN is correctly installed, Internet works with it, but the installed gmail account (which works OK on a desktop) doesn't send/recieve e-mails out of this account per WLAN.
When I connect the TYTN over USB to Windows Mobile Center it works OK, I mean it should work per WLAN too, but I've no idea how to manage that
Misbelief or correctnes ...??? Who knows probably yet more about this "phenomenon" [for me]
Thanks a lot
