ROM Update with Vista, any possibility?

Hello,
since a couple of days I try to upgrade my Trinity with a new Rom, but I have no chance. I get this message Erros 260:Connection , so do somebody know how I can flash my Rom under Vista?It would be very nice, thanks a lot!

turn off usb-connection in windows mobile device center, and try again!
if it doesn't work, try "des bootloader", start it and try to flash again.
perhaps you need activesync 4 drivers for your device, i found them somewhere in this board
good luck

thanks a lot, where can I find the active sync drivers, I searched but I found nothing, anybody an idea?

Vista in my eyes is almost perfect - never had any issue!
- using three external hard drives without any problem
- syncing with my Wizard (of course WMDC doesn't "store" contacts, it just syncs them with an Exchange server or Outlook - and it does it even better than ActiveSync)
- and all other stuff I did previously with XP (except ROM upgrading of my Wizard - but that's not a problem of Vista as there are already upgrade tools, we just don't have them so far cause no operator released any upgrade recently or the gurus here haven't been able to hack it to accept custom ROMs)

Hey can you tell me how to make my version of wmdc do what you say your does? As far as syncing the contacts and setting up my mobile email? I only had vista for about a week now and trying to figure it out; i was so dependant on XP but had to move on. Any help will be appreciated.

Actually there are no "tweaks" to make it do what is is supposed to do - it did it straight away! I have no idea where you have problems - WMDC has exactly the same functionality (and some additions to AS) and same options, just different interface. Just go to "mobile device settings" or whatever it is called (I am using the German version) and set it up to sync whatever you want to sync...
If it doesn't work try to delete the partnership and set up a new one...

Issue with my Rom: ActiveSync doesn't copy appointments

There is a reproduceable problem with my german ROM (reconstructed from Vodafone VPA compact GPS dump):
ActiveSync does not sync appointments. Instead it reports an error "Unterstützungscode 1" (Supportcode 1) and lists the appointments it couldn'T sync.
Also apparently the clock is reset to a wrong time with each sync.
Has anyone experienced this issue with a cooked ROM before? Could it be a bad dump? Which file(s) are responsible for ActiveSync?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
EDIT: after playing around a bit it now works. I can't really explain why. Will look into it and post my results if any.

I have tried your ROM and the there must be a correaltion to contacts with a birthday. As well as appointments with notes.
Using the original german HTC ROM this does not happen.

Hi,
very interested in why it suddenly works for you ... have the exact same problem since a couple of weeks.
Do you have any idea what it is you played around with?
regards
Torsten

For some users reinstalling ActiveSync worked, some had played around with time settings.
I couldn't pinpoint it any further so far, sorry.

For me it was simple: I set Active Sync to n o t Sync appointments. Than it synced and all appointments on trinity were deleted. Than I changed settings back and after a while everything seems to be ok.

Hi colleagues,

Problem with the weather panel
Hi there everyone,
I have a HTC touch diamond P3700 and I'm using the original weather panel from the HTC. lately I have noticed that although I get an update on my weather regularly, but the icon does not match the reality.
for example, at 9:00 pm it still shows Sunny and at a rainy day it shows sunny but partly cloudy (and it was pouring outside).
What should I do to take care of this problem?
Thanks

@swat61
Please see my post here for a resolution:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2602491&postcount=3

I am not sure if this could help:
I installed Weather Database Editor and after adding a few cities I unistalled it. It has to remain installed otherwise weather is not updated.

I am having the same problem, and have tried this fix, but it didnt work. Does anybody have any other suggestions.

I am also having this problem, and it says "There was a connection error while attempting to download weather data."... It cannot connect under, activesync, wifi, or HSDPA.
Maybe the accuweather channel is not working?

It looks like a server issue... tons of reports are coming in from Diamond and Pro owners

i have this problem too - I am in Greece.
Perhaps we should wait a few hours... it may be the channel's problem

huf, I should have read all the posts. I just hard reset my device because I thought it was something I had done....

same here, but I checked the forums first... there was no problem posted at the time, so I hard reset.
It's server-side, people... don't hard reset!

At least I was not the only one...that makes me feel little better

Same problem in Australia.
I wish the weather panel would allow us to use different sites/servers. Accuweather is catastrophicly inaccurate for Australia (and I'd imagine for most places outside the US).

Weather...
Hi guys,
I'm on vodafone UK - same issue. As Draiko says, it must be server-side to give everyone, everywhere the same issue. Annoying, yes, but stuff happens!

So, is the server down? I could update weather 24 hours ago (my weather info is 24 hours ago) but can't do it now (with wif/HSDPA, etc). The internet connection is good as I can view youtube without problem.

Been having the same problem recently.. I was able to download the weather fine last week..
Does everyone have issue on other internet problem like Internet Explorer and Windows Live Messenger?

same issues with my Diamond today. Suddendly I can't update the weather...
Sounds like the consensus is that it's a server problem at Accuweather

ActiveSync problem

here is my system:
- Outlook 2007 SP1
- Windows XP SP3 Home
- ActiveSync 4.5
here is my problem:
I used to sync notes, tasks, contacts and calendar with my pc. Since this night activesync gives me error 80004005 for anything i try to sync except notes.
When I first sync notes it shows a windows to I choose between merge from device or pc and any option i choose performs note sync. Tasks, Contacts or Calendar in any combination will result in a fail sync.
what i tried:
- remove device, reboot device and pc. Try to sync.
- repair my Outlook file with scanpst.exe.
- remove all my calendars and tasks. No luck.
Some light please...

The epic continues...
...Tired of dont get answers I hard-reseted my device.
The nice surprise, sync worked.
So i installed 5 cabs in a row, rebooted the device and sync dont work again.
Well, the problem maybe in one cab. Removed each one and repet the test but the problem dont go away.
So I removed my device from Activesync list, reboot the pc and the device.
Now its working, i will investigate the problematic cab and post here.

After some stressing research I found the problematic cab.
It seems to be a incompatible between Dutty´s 2.9 MSVC and "Duttys All in one Cabs".
-Remove "Duttys All in one Cabs".
-Restart PC and device.
-Removed my device from PC´s ActiveSync list.
-ReSync.
No more problems.
If someone is experimenting the same problem please post some feedback. Thx!

I have the same problem as I did exactly the same as what you have described.
I didn't know that was the cause. I gave up and changed to CVSD version. No problem at all now. Thank you for verifying this....

saint7608, when you have this problem do you remember having installed "Duttys All in one Cabs"?

Yes, I did.
I thought I have the Sync problem solved when I switched to CVSD. The problem is coming back after I install everything I need including "Dutty's All in one Cabs". I think, again, it could be due to "Duttys All in one Cabs".
Here is what I have done,
Flash CVSD, hard reset
install Chinese CE Star for Chinese Font / Input Support
Sync with outlook, no problem and very fast
install "Duttys All in one Cabs"
install TrackThisOutTracky (GPS trail tracking software)
install Duttys Compact Qwerty KBD
install Full Qwerty KBD default
install Tnyynt Full Keyboard Font Fix
install Penpower WorldCard Mobile
install GPS Test
install Skype
I cannot remember the sequence of installing all other software except CE star (I always do this first everytime I flash with new ROMs).

Sync problem with LAN
My HTC Diamond does not Sync while LAN cable connected to the PC or laptop... it only syncs when LAN cable is unplugged... I've always have to remove the LAN cable from the PC or laptop before synchronizing my device... I checked it on different PCs & laptops...but it gives the same problem... can anyone help??

Calendar, email and SMS show wrong time

I am having issue with my Diamond 2 running OS and ROM:
Windows Mobile 6.1 Professional
CE OS 5.2.21041 (Build 21042.1.6.1)
ROM 1.39.405.2 (47382) WWE
The issue is that calendar, email and SMS show wrong time on the phone. For example if I create a meeting in Outlook (note that I sync with my company Microsoft Exchange Server 2007) starting at 16:00 it shows in my Diamond 2 starting at 17:00. When someone sends me email at 12:30 it shows the time 13:30 in my Diamond 2 but 12:30 in my Outlook and Web email. Same goes with the SMS’s. The clock on the Diamond 2 is set the same as on my PC and on the Exchange Server. As I live in Iceland I set the time zone on the Diamond 2 to GMT Casablanca (there is no day light saving in Iceland, always GMT 0) and my PC and Exchange server are set to GMT Monrovia, Reykjavik (it is same as GMT Casablanca). The “Automatic change time zone and clock” option on the Diamond 2 is not selected. I have gone through several options changes on the phone and time zone changes in Outlook but the issue still remains. I have gone through the directions on this Microsoft page, http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/en-us/downloads/microsoft/daylight-savings-update.mspx, and installed the KB949168 patch but with no luck.
I have also the first Diamond phone running OS and ROM:
Windows Mobile 6.1 Professional
CE OS 5.2.20764 (Build 20764.1.4.3)
ROM 2.03.401.3 WWE
…. and these issues did not occur on the old Diamond. Therefore I decided to do a test en the old one and installed this OS and ROM:
Windows Mobile 6.1 Professional
CE OS 5.2.21042 (Build 21042.1.6.1)
ROM 2.04.73.1 WWE
…. and running this OS and ROM the old Diamond got the same time issues as the Diamond 2 so I would expect that this has to do with some software errors that are in the newer OS and ROM builds.
I have also another issue which has to do with the UI HTC has build in Touch Flow to change time zones (World Clock). When I chose Reykavik in this UI the time zone in the OS is changed from GMT Casablanca to GMT London, Dublin which is wrong because UK and Ireland use DTS and Iceland does not.
Can anyone help me with these issues?
Thanks,
Jon

Are you using the stock rom or others cook rom?

Hi
You need be careful with appointments as Windows Mobile does have a habit of adjusting the time, I asssume either because of daylight saving or some confusion over time zones.
I turned up 1 hour late for an appointment over the clocks changing as what was set for 9am became 10am!
Have you checked under regional settings that it is set for the right region, and under the clock settings it is the correct time zone?
Regards
Phil

Yes I know that DTS have been a problem in Windows Mobile in the past but as I’m using GMT Casablanca as time zone so there should not be any adjustments for daylight saving because this time zone is always on GMT 0 time. Regional settings are set to Iceland so that should not be a problem and best of my knowledge regional settings do not affect the time zone settings.
Another point is that the clock on the phone does not change and it shows the same time as on my PC end Exchange Server. Only the time on my appointments, emails and SMS are off by one hour showing the events as they should occur hour later than they should.
The strange thing is that this issue does not occur in some older OS builds. As I tested my old Diamond with stock ROM using the OS 5.2 build 20764.1.4.3 there were no issues but when I switch to ROM using OS 5.2 build 21042.1.6.1 (same as on the Diamond 2) the problem starts.
