Well, it would help a lot to know what ROM you have
try desabling advanced network functionality on start-settings.connections-usb to pc: Untick that (Not sure if your ROM has this option)
Good luck,

im running kaneva 6.1

Kavana 6.1 Excalibur i did what u said still didnt wrk even hard reset didnt wrk

I had a similar problem and it turned out to be the cable.
A USB cable is just a USB cable right?
Wrong.
It turned out that the cable I was using was from my SatNav unit, not the one that came with the phone.
The phone lead works just fine with the navigator but the phone doesn't like the navigator lead.
Honest.
I'm not even making this up ...
Try a different lead. It really might help.
Stop laughing.
It might.

did that still didnt wrk

Bugger.
Thought I was going to save the day there.
In your first post, you imply that it used to sync via USB and now doesn't.
Are you trying this through ActiveSync or that Vista WMDC thingy?
Will it sync over USB on another machine?
Oh yeah - even though it won't sync, does your phone show up as a folder in Explorer?

idk if it will sync on other pc and kno it doesnt show up as a folder

Assuming that the USB drivers on your big machine haven't collapsed, is it possible that the socket on the phone is damaged or full of pocket fluff?
Try it on another machine. If that also turns out to be a joyless experience, it might be time for rolled-up sleeves, equipment and strong drink.
If you get no further on another system, post some more details -
ROM version
OS
Credit card number and PIN
etc.
You know the sort of thing.

Net Framework 2.0 Vs. 3.0 with WM6

I'm running Black Satin Medium right now and having AS 4.5 issues.
Have tried rebooting, reflashing, changing ROMs, uninstalling...all with no effect.
Checking my system, I see I have Net Framework 3.0 installed. Will this cause the errors with WM6?
Should I uninstall the 3.0 and keep 2.0?
Anyone else have this issue with the 2.0 Net Framework?
Thanks,
Jim
.Net 3.0 is still pretty fresh, but I don't know to what extent A/S uses it anyway (have always assumed not much). Perhaps if you could describe what "issue" you're referring to...

It does not recognize the device with advanced USB enabled. With advanced USB disabled, A/S does not even kick in.
Then after 10 minutes of charging, I get a bubble in the task tray stating "the USB device could not be recognized..."...and words to that effect. Unplugging and then plugging it back in will restart the charge but still not A/S connection.
It happens with every ROM I have tried. It will sync ONCE and then begin this behavior.
Jim
Hmmm... got another computer you can try it on? Beyond that it's sounding as though the USB in your phone may be borked.

The odd thing is...
1) this is a factory refurb...was an issue with the 1st unit as well
2) I can flash by doing a Hard Reset and then flashing on a fresh ROM.
Jim
One other note...My Internet Sharing does work...so this is very odd. It seems to be isolated to A/S 4.5...have downgraded Net framework from3.0 to 2.0. Still no effect.
Jim
Have you tried re-installing the Active Sync app?
For me looks more related to Active Sync Communication problem(Driver not properly installed.. May be)
imho there is no connection between .netcf and A/S.
check usb cable, try another comp, try to connect using wm5torage etc.

I always disable adv usb functionality for just this reason. I still use CF2 though. First time it (sometimes) kicks in, but will never set up a second partnership with another PC, even on the occasions when the first one is set up ok.
I suspect that this issue is quite likely confined to XP users but don't actually know. I only say that because Microsoft are buggers for forcing people onto new desktop OS platforms where they can and to be honest I assumed before ever using WM6 that I'd start to come across issues for which MS would 'prescribe' vista as a 'solution'.
Just a guess, mind - but we all know what they're like.
I have not had any problems with .net 3.0....
Where do I find the A/S driver? I have already uninstalled and reinstalled A/S.

There is no separate driver, they are installed when you install active sync. Since re-install did not make any change, I strongly suggest try the active sync on someother pc. This is give you a definate idea as to 'What is wrong'(Phone hardware or the softwareA/S)

Tried it on my desktop, running XP. Again, same issue.
If I hard reset, I can sync. This weekend, I think I will load each program one by one and try to sync and find the culprit to this problem.
I think it may be a software issue, as if I HR I can create an A/S relationship with my laptop and my Internet Sharing is still working, even if I cannot use A/S.

P3300 not sync-ing anymore!

Hi everyone, I have tried very hard to find a solution to this problem. My P3300 stopped syncing with Mobile Device Center every time I plug in the USB cable. Is this a cable fault or is it hardware/software malfunction? Has anybody experience the same issue? Even with bluetooth my pc can not find my P3300? The USB cable charges the phone no problem but there's not connection from the PC to the P3300... Any help will be deeply appreciated.
if you look in the activstnc box under file
connection settings
make sue all the options are checked
If you have already checked this I'm at a loss apart from to reinstall AS on your PC.
Good luck
Pete
Thanks peterbutler19 for your input...yeak I made sure that everything was checked..also noticed that everytime I plugged in the USB cable there wouldn't be any reaction at the PC... like not even seeing an external USB device... besides only charging the P3300. Its quite a troubling issue.
Don´t know why it happens, but i found that is a problem with windows media player in windows vista.
It´s an issue between, WMDC and WMP.
Hi I use to have same problem, I think is the rom version that you use or a program that you recently install. The way I fixit was only hard reset because the re-installing of activesync dont resolve nothing.
Ark666, hmmm didn't thought about that... I might give it a try and see it that solves the problem. So far now I can only charge the phone and that's about it...
I did a hard reset on the P3300 ryomahino, but the problem still persist. I try to install the WM6 original ROM but can't do since the phone can't activsync with the PC. By the way I am using the B&B v4.2 ROM

I don´t remember the site, but do a google search, it has worked for me, it has nothing to do with the device, the problem it´s Vista itself.
Go here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=304131&page=3, post 27.
Media Player may not work after this.

I too had a problem with my Compact III loosing its sync with Vista.
It drove me up the wall. Somedays it was fine others it just reported a red cross... I had to go into Device Manager on the PC and remove the drivers manually and then resinstall them. But over time it would loos the syncing again.
I eventually solved it by using a different USB port on my PC.
I was originally using the USB hub that was built into my Dell monitor, but whenever the screen was powered down and the PC left on (ie overnight) the hub didn't always wake up properly.
I know only use the USB ports built into the back of the PC and I have had no problems for several months.
Hope it helps
I had the same problem with my O2 XDA Orbit.
The only thing that cured it was a hard reset

Phone does not recognize it is connected to computer through USB

Good day fine sirs and ma'ams.
I would just like to say I love my Tilt 2, and have had it for a few months now with no real problems and this is about my 4th WM phone.
As of about a month ago, I have been unable to connect or sync the device to my PC.
I have WM Device center 6.1 (the latest from the website)
I am running windows 7
I had been able to sync the phone until about a month ago.
I have unchecked the box in the USB to PC for faster data synchronization.
Essentially, when I plug the phone into the computer, it just acts as if it is connected to a charger. Nothing comes up on the phone and nothing comes up on the computer. It just charges. I have even installed and uninstalled WMDC a couple of times.
I really am at my wits end here.
My question is, is there a fix for this apart from sending the phone in? I am able to flash the phone via the microsd card, and even tried going back to the e2 rom that is as close to the ATT rom as I could find.
I did find the stock rom, but it does not come with the image file, just the ruu.exe I believe. I cannot flash roms via the USB cable either, so I am only able to change things like I said, via the microsd card.
Any help is greatly appreciated! Thanks!
And yes, I have searched, and have found many other people posting in other threads saying they have the same problem, and everyone just says to uncheck that one box, which I have done, so that is NOT the problem.
Also, I would just like to add that when I go into the windows directory and attempt to run activesync (repllog.exe) I get the following message.
(cannot communicate with the pc because of the fllowing remote networking error (Error 608)
I have seen others ask help for this question without an answer on xda-dev also.
Thanks again! If anyone has the solution here I think a lot of people will be very happy!
:-(
turn off your firewall then pug ur device in and see if that works... works for me... perhaps your firewall started blocking it for some reason... other than that good luck
I had similar things happen to me in the past. While the phone is connected, check Windows Update whether there is a new version of Sync Center. This has fixed the problem for me.
i appreciate the suggestions.
However,
I have the firewall disabled and it still does not connect.
I uninstalled and reinstalled the WMDC using the latest software directly from the website. There appears to be no updates for the program once it is installed.
Any other suggestions?
Have you tried multiple USB cables, multiple USB ports, or even multiple computers? I've had USB cables which aren't capable of data transfer, as well as USB ports on the computer go bad. You might also considering a hard reset, to ensure no software on the phone could be causing the problem. If it's truly the USB port on the device that's broken, then you're in bad shape if you want to return it to AT&T for repair. You may be able to flash the AT&T stock ROM, but you won't be able to restore the AT&T stock SPL, which they check when fixing the device, so you may very well have to fork over some money to get it fixed. Best of luck
My phone is doing this also.
Multiple PC's, multiple USB ports, multiple cables. All of which worked perfectly beforehand...
The other thing to try is Internet Sharing - when I go in there and press 'connect', then it says Check USB cable connection, connect USB to any of my PC's/laptops and it doesn't register on the phone.
This phone is really a piece of ****. I could rant on for hours about the stupid problems there are with this handset, I'm sure I'm not alone. Perhaps I expected too much.
Anyway, if anyone has any info on how to make my USB connection work I'd love them forever...!

Could be a faulty device...my phone connects to every computer, every time. take the phone to your provider and show them whats happening.
Also, i've had issues with the standard mini USB ( http://www.meditronik.com.pl/doc/mini/usb-kabel-mini=foto=canon.jpg ) not properly connecting/loosing connection.
Try a HTC usb it might work better: http://bestcellbuy.com/bargainsea/Pictures/HTC/OEM_Home_Charger_USB_Cable/OEM_HTC_Data_Cable_07.jpg
I've tried the HTC USB lead that shipped with my phone to no avail.
I think the device is faulty (surprise surprise). It charges from USB perfectly fine, every time.
I'll post back once I find out what Telstra say... it's obviously still under warranty but that isn't really the issue - It is just such a major PITA having to switch to a loan phone and deleting confidential business data etc from my phone before sending away for repair etc etc...
Thanks for the help though, it is appreciated.
Well, I've got my USB going again. Not sure exactly what I've done, but basically I pulled the battery out for a few minutes and replaced it, turned on and off the 'high speed' checkbox in USB Connection Settings, and it has come good.
****box phone.
Somehow mine started working again last night too. Same cable, same port and everything.
Really odd, but I'm not complaining at the moment!
It seems this problem is spreading, as i'm being terrorized by this stupid bug... This afternoon I've tried to get internet on my laptop (by connecting my phone to it), but it was just charging my phone, so I thought the cable was broken. Next I tried it at home on my desktop computer, with another cable, and it did the same (several reboots have passed).
I don't know if someone already tried it, but when you enter the bootloader, it says "Serial". Normally when you connect the USB-cable it changes to "USB" (at least with my kaiser, universal and wizard). on my phone it didn't...... can anyone check this for me??
to enter bootloader: hold volume-down-button and pres soft-reset-button.
thanks in advance!

I've flashed my device with the newest official from HTC, and it still doesn't connect with the usb-data (i used the "flash-from-SD" -method).
The strange thing was that it happened suddenly... i never use a headset with cable, so its almost impossible the connector is broken. Any ideas people??
btw, the device isn't SPL flashed, so i can't use other roms beside the official roms...
Same thing happened to me. No USB sync, no USB connection at all; it only charges. Thankfully I had a chance to flash to a custom ROM before this happened.
The only way I can sync my data is to use a bluetooth USB in my PC. Works quite well with my contacts, calendar, & email, but I have yet to try to transfer any large files.
The bluetooth USB I went with was ASUS USB-BT21 USB 2.0 Mini Bluetooth Dongle. It is VERY low profile, too, but I would have liked for it to come with an end cap like those USB flash drives, otherwise I have yet to find any complaints about it. The price was great and so much cheaper than spending an additional $70-$100 to get my USB port on my device fixed.
Here's my saga: No Syncing, No USB Connection
Best of luck!
Debbie
this happened to me before...when you connect your devivce to your laptop/comp, are you guys not getting the little pop up that says activesync & disc drive...??? if so jus make sure at least one of those are checked...sometimes both of the circles will be blank, thus the comp will simply charge it...
unplug the device for approx 10 sec then plug it in again, and the box should pop up again...
also...if you are tethered to your comp using the tp2's internet, your comp will not recognize your tp2's storage...

I did not know one could flash to new ROM by use of the SD card?
Mine is de-HSPL, so now I can not select another ROM anymore. (Got the 6.1 default one again)

I've never used the SD-Card method myself, but now will have to due to my USB port no longer working.
I've been syncing by using Bluetooth USB and just tried transferring files via Bluetooth and it worked like a charm! Smaller files were instantaneous and large files took longer (of course), but also worked fine.
I just tried copying over a RHODIMG.nbh file and that bugger worked (188MB)... Excellent!!!
I did buy a USB card reader to transfer files, just to be on the safe side, but I must say that this little Bluetooth USB that I picked up is working awesome.
Debbie
i exactly have the same problem.I guess i need to send it back

No Syncing, No USB Connection!

I searched... I unchecked the USB to PC "enable faster data synchronization" checkbox... I ran a repair/reinstall on my PC's ActiveSync software... Tried 2 different USB ports (but haven't tried a different cable yet, as I don't have another with me)... And reset my Tilt 2 a few times already, and my Tilt 2 refuses to connect or sync with my PC.
Worked fine here on Friday, but today I got nothing. The only thing that I noticed that was different over the weekend was that I got the Sleep of Death once and had to pull the battery.
Below is my current configuration. Anyone have anything else that I can try? If I can't get my syncing to work, my phone may end up being completely useless to me... That would make me very sad.
Thanks,
Debbie
Well, I started to respond and see you already had my suggestion; disable "Enable faster data sync", which for me does break ActiveSync.
So I'll go with this tact; if this is in fact broken for you for some reason, does USB work at all? How about using the phone as a drive? That said, are you sure you didn't check the default when plugging in the phone to be something other than ActiveSync?
Settings->Connections->USB to PC, last option is "Ask when I connect device to the PC"
If all else fails, personally I use Google for my calendar, contacts sorta with Google, and I load all apps via the browser, so I haven't used ActiveSync in about a year myself. So at least for me, if ActiveSync is broken entirely it's not a big loss. You could also try Bluetooth syncing if it's absolutely required.

USB doesn't work at all. Just tried the "Ask when I connect device to PC" and nothing happens. :::whimper:::
Could my port be damaged (it will charge via USB, however)?
EDIT: Just did a hard reset after exhausting all other ideas... Crossing all appendages that it was software interferring with the sync process... Pray with me, please.
EDIT... AGAIN: Nope, hard reset didn't do squat. I'm truly sad now and fear that I may need a USB port repair... Anyone have experience with this or can point me the direction of repair that won't cost me as much as a new Tilt 2? I'm truly gutted.
Debbie
The Little Light Bulb Over My Head Went On...
But there's no need to be afraid!
I'm thinking that there must be some USB Bluetooth thingy that I may be able to use to sync my precious Tilt 2 to my PC that is surely to be less expensive than getting my USB port replaced.
Have any of you had any experience with these and do they work just as well?
Many thanks!
Debbie

Absolutely, you can get a small Bluetooth adapter for your desktop PC which will just plug into a free USB port and enable you to connect your PC to just about any BT-enabled device, your TP2 included
BT uses a very standardized set of protocols, so any adapter that says it supports "version 2.0 + EDR" should work just fine for you. Once you get the adapter installed on your PC, syncing your phone is just a matter of setting the new activesync connection, and after that it should be just as easy as ever....easier even, without the cable!
um, is that what you were asking? lol I'm 99% sure it was, but...

Yep, that's exactly what I meant, Chris! Getting the USB port fixed will undoubtedly happen at some point, but for now that Bluetooth USB adapter will fit the bill nicely.
I just connected my Tilt 2 to my PC with the original cable and I got nada... Syncing is definitely shot. Thank God it will still charge or it would be a total loss to me.
Looking at Newegg.com now for my bluetooth thingy... Any other reputable suppliers that I can check for one? I suspect that it was my Ebay car charger that fried my USB.
EDIT: Seems some of the better rated ones on Newegg indicate USB 2.1... Is this still OK?
Hey, I can't cook a ROM myself, but I'm a very technically minded beotch, ain't I? LOL!

Cool, I'm glad I was thinking along the same lines
Yes, any adapter that is BT 2.0 or above should work just fine, the 2.1 adapters are just a bit newer. I assume you're looking at the two zoom models on newegg? I think either one will work great, I just really can't tell what the exact difference is between the two.
It's a little confusing when looking at the BT adapters, they don't do a very good job of making clear the difference between USB 2.0 and BT 2.0. But...just make sure that the adapter is BT 2.0(or +), and it will work with whatever USB ports your PC has (older or recent)...they're all backwards compatible.
FYI, the TP2 also supports file transfer via BT (so you can move cabs etc back and forth even without using activesync, usually much faster than through activesync), and printing too!

I didn't say that....but I'm not aruging it either
Went with this one ASUS USB-BT21 USB 2.0 Mini Bluetooth Dongle.
I might get a second for the home PC, if all works out well.
Shipped already, so I'll probably get it in a couple of days (they're pretty fast).
Wish me luck!

Bluetooth Sync Successful!
...Kind of.
I forgot that I did a hard reset to try to resolve my USB syncing problem (without success) and had to restore my PIM backup to get my info back in there. Now, I've got all those duplicate/blank records to delete again... DAMN!... I had ignored my own rule!!!!
Anyway, I'm glad that this new phone isn't a loss to me now. Kind of a bear to get set up only because I don't usually use any BT devices, so it was a bit of a learning curve for me. Now that I've got that all sorted, it should get easier as I get more familiar. Not as easy as docking it, of course, but at least it's effective!

Ok...that's 2 damn's and 3 yay's...so with a net gain of 1 yay, I think this is still a win! lol
Seriously though, I hope that other than the dup contacts this method will end up being relatively painless for you.

Yeah, I did, including different cables. Syncing capabilities via USB are definitely fried.
My Kaiser synced up fine, however, so it's definitely my Tilt 2.
Syncing has been going well, once I got it all sorted out, so yes, Chris, all is well with the world again... Now, I can switch back to 'playing' with my new Rhodium!

SKTools has some nice duplicate files software...just gotta be real careful with what you remove as it may be the same file name for a different program.

I ended up just hard resetting the Rhodium and starting the sync process again. Believe it or not, that was easier. LOL!
Will look at SKTools... Thanks!

Haha yea I know the feeling. At one point I duplicated 3 of each contact and appt.
I like Seven for syncing to e-mails, contacts and calendars because it is all push technology. When I update a contact in Outlook regardless of where I am it will automatically push that info to my phone, that way I do'nt have to worry about docking it (although i'm not sure if it does reverse sync, where if I have an appt on my phone shows up in outlook).
Hi Every One
I have exactly the same problem grrrrrr
I have win XP pro sp3, tilt2 with last HTC official upgrade
I made a search in XDA, Google it, htc forum nothing to do
Finally I do hard reset and is work …… for 2-3 hours
Then I think I find the problem bat I do not have the solution
Well, when you connect the tilt2 to you PC this stupid one consider the phone as modem and the tilt is configured to be used for internet sharing, even if you click on the phone that you want this connection as activesync,
So, once the phone is in modem or sharing mode, activesync cannot work properly and get access to synchronize, in other word you cannot do booth, and as the default connection in this situation is modem and internet sharing so bye bye activesync
I go to task manager and delete the modem, once you connect your usb, the modem appear under network card/widows mobile based device
A doesn’t know if this situation is a bug from HTC or uncle bill… I am trying to fix this from almost 2 days
I hope this help
Thank you
PS: please I am not to expert, so perhaps I am wrong correct me if it is the case
PS 2: Sorry for my English
Ive been on the other side... I did upgrade to 6.5 sense 2.5 rom and usb stopped... I tried everything, cables, computers, roms, hard resets, patchs, activesync repairs, botting ppc and pc, booting ppc plugged in pc, install - uninnstall activesync, deleted partnerships, etc, in one word - everything founded on the net. Nothing worked. No usb, no activesync, just "usb device not been recognized...". Finnally, I gave up. Contacted DebbieNY13 for bluetooth syncing instructions and bought bluetooth usb 2.0 edr 2.1 adapter. For no reason, I plugged a phone in a PC, and, as usual,my TP2 asked me for type of connection, I said activesync and... it started to sync! One time, two, ten, then I change connection to USB and my SD showed up as usb device! Unbelieveble! Thats happened yesterday and my phone still got usb whenever I want! I really dont know whats happened or what I did, it simply works. Only difference from times when sync was ordinary thing is, when i plugged a phone and decide which way of usb connection I want, little pop up shows up with text"RNDIS Serial USB connection Hide", or something like that, and quickly dissapeared. Thats my case, hope Ill find out whats going on and post it on forum.
Please do! Yours is not the first that I've heard behaving wonky like that.
Here's praying that mine someday starts working all on it's own, too!

computer problem!

i'm not sure if this is the right section to ask this but my tilt 2 is not recognized by my computer anymore. I thought maybe it is the phone but it's recognized on other computers so I was wondering is there a way to reinstall the driver on my computer or some other fix someone know of?
I think I saw some threads with similar problems but I didn't see any definitive answer in any.
HELP PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!

Do you have XP or Vista/7? The first step you should try is uninstalling/reinstalling whichevery type of sync software you have on the PC...for XP it's ActiveSync, for Vista/7, it's Mobile Device Center. A fresh reinstall of those sometimes clears this problem up, and it's the easiest solution to try first
I have xp and I have uninstalled and reinstalled but that doesn't do anything my phone still isn't recognize that's why I was wondering if after u uninstall does the driver remains on the hard drive and if so how would u remove the driver so u can reinstall it.
Do you use the same cable when you are connecting it to the other computers? If you do then... well I dont know.. I would still try a new cable and wiggle it a bit
When you uninstall the Active Sync I believe it does take the driver off as well...
When you connect your phone to the computer does it still come up asking if you want to connect via Active Sync, Disk Drive, Internet Sharing?
I'll give you one method that helped me at least when I was having connection issues, have no idea if it is related to yours (and it might not even be applicable to the older XP version of ActiveSync).
While your phone is connected, go into Device Manager and under the Network adapters node, look for "Microsoft Windows Mobile Remote Adapter". If it is there, uninstall it.
After that, disconnect then reconnect your phone.
As a long shot, you would not happen to be running any VPN software would you? A connected VPN always makes syncing the phone impossible.
Is your phone charging while connected?
I had/have a USB connection issue with my Tilt2. It wasn't recognized by the computer, but it was charging. When I connect through bluetooth, it is detected just fine. I am assuming that my issue are the pins in the USB connector on the phone, since I have the same issue with different cables.

No the only thing it does now is charge.

yeah it's still charging but that is it... nothing else happens
Every so often when I connect my phone to my pc all it does is charge.. All I do to fix it is soft reset the phone AND restart the computer. Usually after that it works fine. If not just take it off and put it back on the dock or cable.. if you try a different cable that might work for you too. Or try plugging your cable into a different usb port on the computer
