Got an MDA pro and miss MSN badly at work, so I bought the retail MSN mobile.
When I go to install it I get the error of " No Windows Mobile or Smartphone device is connected via ActiveSync", blah blah, ensure device is connected, try again...
It is connected, synced, icon is green and I can explore device from dekstop.
Opening the install exe with WinRAR doesn't yield any .cab files I could just run on the device, and I have done the activation thing of MSN Mobile as well.
I have AS 4.0 (didn't work on 4.1 before you say - I went back to see if it would work on the 'official' AS), MDA Pro, Win XP, USB connection.
Help! Need my fix of MSN and my hotmail account back.
Imate update rom
Why don't you install the imate rom it contains the free version of MSN
Joe:
I installed the jasjar rom on my MDApro and skipped the extended rom install by softresetting my ppc right after a hard reset so it will not install the extended rom files. after that I installed the Signed_UNI_TMONL_Conn_112101 cab from my old extended rom from the MDA the have the gprs settings.
Now I have a fast working MDA pro with MSN and if you want You can install SKype from the extend rom the you uploaded yourself
Good luck

It was something to do with my old PC I use for programs; it's XP SP1 and my games PC let it install fine which is an updated SP2+ XP machine.
Thanks for the suggestions; when I have the confidence, I will do the full upgrade to WWE.[/b]

I have installed Microsoft Reader on my HTC Universal. I used the version for Pocket PC. But to make it work, it must be activated by an operation at Microsoft's website. When I try repeatedly, I get the error message that I do not have Pocket PC 2002 or later. Is not HTC Universal with Windows Mobile 5 a Pocket PC? Should I try another version of Microsoft Reader?

Hansof,
this is a Microsoft blunder. The same problem for the rest of us.
Guess we will have to wait for MS to correct this.

Just install the PC version too, then proceed with the activation from the PC and activate either the PC versione either the PPC version. It works.
At the end you can uninstall the PC version.
Well, there is a workaround, you can unprotect your books with CLIT on you PC if you have the book correclty registered with your windows reader (PC) and then use it on your pocketpc with ms reader.

Hi all.
Finally update my M3100 to WM6 (thanks to LVSM) and i can't connect with my Windows Vista desktop using latest driver from Microsoft.
I can connect with Windows XP box with Active Sync 4.5 without any problem.
Anyone get this working or am i crazy?
Thanks all.
Windows VISTA has a new activesync.
If you connect your device, you should see that Vista auto detects your phone.
But you can't install programs etc.
Then you have to run Windows Update to dowload an additional package, so you
can install programs etc.
So if your Vista ain't that legal, then don't try.
I had installed the XDA Live 0.1 last week without issues (via WinXP)
When I tried to upgrade to the 0.2 it hung in boot loader (tri-colour screen), while using Vista w/ AS4.5.
I had to hard reset to get it to go back to 0.1, but it hasn't really been the same since.
I d/l the new WM6 LVSM and tried to upgrade, but it also hangs in tri-colour mode.
Now is it a problem because I'm running Vista?

If I am not mistaking, you can't upgrade with Vista.
There is a workaround for it, but standard it's not possible.
Upgrade trough Windows XP.

Thanks I was thinking i could just use Vista.
I guess I should have just stayed on XP on my primary PC instead of upgrading to Vista so damn quick...LOL

Well, i expose my complete experience with Vista (of course legal copy )
I have one Qtek 9100 and one TyTN (SPV M3100 Spanish Orange).
days ago both of them with WM5 (original branded)
Yesterday move qtek 9100 to WM6, but can't do with Vista so i do in a VMWare Windows XP box running into Vista with VMWare Workstation (this works very fine). once the 9100 was WM6, Vista says taht the device is new and can't find the driver, but one day before works fine.
So today upgrade my TyTN with the same, put the RUU in the XP box, and works fine, but the same results in Vista and Mobile Sync. Works with SM5 but not with WM6. But in XP box, works with boths.
I think MS checks the OS version in Vista Sync, so you can't sync if the OS version isn't in the list of legal OS mobile.
I am running Windows Vista Ultimate and have WMXL 0.20 on my phone.
I can connect my phone to vista and i can browse my phone. I see the storage card and the internal memory.
You can't install application trough this.
If you want to install application when using Windows Vista, connect your phone with the USB cable, wait for Windows to detect your phone and install the drivers, then run Windows Update.
Then it will download an package so you can install applications.
Windows Vista uses the new Mobile Sync Center hence the RUU cannot connect with your PDA... if you replace the Mobile Sync Center drivers with the activesync ones you can get it to work...
there is a search button on the top right of this forum... as this topic has been discussed and answered many times before i suggest you use the search feature as it works wonders....
I installed Windoes Mobile Device Center on Vista, and I did not have a problem getting it to recognize my hermes w/ XDA-live 0.20. I did nothing special, just plugged it in, it was recognized, I configured it, and it syncs no problem.

Ok, i dosn't express correct. The question is the conectivity, not so only run RUU, but get acces to device.
With Vista (spanish version) i can't get acces to WM6, and i try two devices, Qtek 9100 and TyTN. a couples of days before both of them were with WM5 and can access without any problem. So i think Vista can read the version my devices says to be and be confused with the driver to use. Were can i find the drivers to make this work. Anyone says i can put activesync 4.5 drivers in Vista, is this correct?
So i must to connect to my XP box into VMWare and access trought this. so i can access and update usgin RUU.
Thanks.

I'm in your same situation.
Im my case, Vista dosn't find the correct driver for my M3100 with LVSW WM6 (perhaps i make a mistake installing, i'll reinstall Vista soon ) In XP box no problem to do that, and gain Internet connection from M3100 to get sync with Exchange server trought Internet.
How do you set the connection in Device Center?
Everything is working fine under vista for me.
I am able to:
-use ICS through USB, PAN
-manage installed programmes
-browse the device
...
I am using an english vista + an english WM6 tytn ROM
Anyone else notice that with XP and Activesync you can see and browse to your Windows folder on the PPC, but through Vista that folder is completely hidden and there seems to be no way to browse it??

You just need to enable viewing of System folders in Folder options
I'm using Vista since the first day and I have updated my TyNT with LVSW ROM and everything works.
Bluetooth activesync / USB activesync / Pairing with Outlook 2007 / Seeing all the files on Main Memory and Storage Card....
All put in one word, everything is perfect.
Only one thing hasn't worked : I haven't been able to update using Vista.
Hello,
i just got my artemis and tried to upgarde it...
But any Rom I downloaded causes errors while flashing...
Something like USB connection error [260] and something like file corrupt error [270]...
I found also how to unlock cid but that doesn´t work to...
I use Vista and the new mobile device center 6.1 and my artemis is an german o2 version.
I get the same errors if i use XP and activesync 4.5....
Any suggestions????????????
I don´t know how to go on. And I didn´t find any Thread that helps me...
Hope anyone could help me...Thx!
Hi ,
First , i sugger you to use XP . I never can upgrad with Vista ( i have vista ultimate )
I do this with xp :
1.First be sure activ sync is active when you put your p3300 on your usb
2.Download this version of uspl (it always work for me with this version ) :
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=PTFMGKAD
3.Choose your rom . I suggest you this :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=401062
4.Unzip the first file you download in 2. You will find a file called RUU_USPL_signed.nbh. Delete it and remplace by the .nbh you dowload in 3.
5.Run start_uspl.exe
You CAN Flash in Vista
Read this thread and you wont have any problems flashing in Vista:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=313001
Just remember to remove your memory card before you flash.

Hi,

Did you manage to get it work by any chance ????

I can't be sure but it may be something to do with XP SP3. I had the exact same problem but when I tried it on another laptop (same hardware) with XP SP2 it worked fine
Happy New Year Everyone.

http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/en-us/help/synchronize/device-center.mspx
k ill give it a try im crossing my fingers cause this is the only bad expericance with vista so far. besides it not letting me install windows media player..
It says update could not be installed because at least one windows componet required by windows mobile device center is missing. this is starting to piss me off
whats an alternative to activesync any free download ones? Cause i wanna upgrade my rom soon.
