Hello,
As many know i just got my Exec (early Xmas present).
I have just put the CD in my laptop (the sync one with red stickers) and it installed Microsoft Activesync however, it just says 'connecting' and does nothing else.
The USB is in correctly, and did say 'installed and ready to use'.
Please help, thanks
Still trying, no luck. Tried newer version too, no luck!
Hi Chris :wink:
Have you got the AS 4.1.0 :?:

With the new i-Mate ROM my laptop doesn't want to connect my PPC.
It starts to connect, and it seems almost ok (I can surf between the folders of my PDA, but when I click StorageCard or ExtendedRom folders it starts thinking forever), but it just tries, never connects, never gives me a chance to make a partnership.
Does anybody know what is this problem?
THX,

One more thing:
With the same settings on PC but with an older ROM everything is fine.
Help!!!
My girlfriend has a XDA2i which has no problem syncing to the same PC. I get the same message you get " retrieving settings" which hangs for ever until I disconnect.
Another interesting thing in my discussion with myself:
Through IrDA everything works fine!!!!!
Why is that???,
Why it doesn't connect to my pda through USB???
H E L P ! ! !
Problem Solved.
Thanks to me.
Sygate Personal Firewall Pro is guilty.
(Although I setup everything what Microsoft wrote)
It seemed ok, but the problem dissapeard just when I uninstalled the application.
I'm getting crazy...
Microsoft Feardows
Sounds to me like you diidn't have all the ports you needed open, if you happen to recall what ports you had open, and post them perhaps I could spot what you missed.
Can't really say I know anything about your firewall.

You may have right, but I opened ports which Microsoft said.
Do you know which ports are these?
The interesting is if you are right, why did work my other Jasjar or with another ROM??? Another ROM uses anorther PORTS???????
what was the resolution to this? I have exactly the same problem having just installed the ROM upgrade. What ports do you have enabled?
Hello, been using custel 2.5 for a while now, probably the day after it came out. Now I need to use internet sharing adn I`m not able to do it thru BT. When I pair my device I can do activesync just fine, but on Vistas BT manager (BT Devices) its not showing the dial-up device. This is strange it works fine with the USB connection, but I really need the BT. Please help. Thanks in advance.
BTW it used to work with wizard with WM6. Thanks
its not a dail up service to start off with its a PAN. second what BT stack are you using? I had the broadcomm stack first and that wouldnt work so i had to switch to the native MS stack and its works fine. If you know how to edit the bt.inf file on your vista machine that will install the MS stack instead of the other stack.

Doesnt it show up in the dial-up services in vista bt device manager ? so i guess Im doint it wrong ? Is there a tutorial that I can see. I remmber on the wizard WM6 it just showed up as a dial-up device and I just dial it. How do I do it here ? Maybe I dont even have to edit anything, maybe Im just having a senior moment thx for the reply
believe it or not if you use your handheld's help program and search for internet sharing it will give you instructions on how to set it up. and no it does not show up on vista as a dail up network since it is not also search this forum for Bluetooth PAN and there is lots of info
doh I never even looked at help on the phone thanks I see how to do it now I see that on the wizard they used the old wm5 modemlink or whatever its called. thanks again but plz try to be nicer to ppl next time

Yeah got it working, works ok kinda slow, I get about 322k on dslreports.com/mspeed while on the phone I get around 800k on the phone it self and about 800 using the USB cable. Any suggestion on how to speed it up ?

I noticed the speed decrease over PAN compared to the USB cable as well. I get way more fluctuations over BT. I am sticking to the USB but it is a nice fallback. Also, for me, Internet Sharing is a night and day difference over dial-up networking/modem driver. It is so easy. This feature is a WM6 gem!

Bluetooth is severely limited in Terms of speed, especially if you're not using Bluetooth 2.0 + EDR

anyone else stuck with vista showing unknown device in device manager when usb tethering with internet sharing on mine it seems to work for 5 mins then disconnect and give up reverting back to unknown device. so im stuck with bluetooth
vista 64 bit
Hey Guys!
My first post with such a stupid problem:
i'm trying to connect to internet with vista 64bit using my hermes over usb. but it doesnt seem to work.
Until last week i had win xp sp3 on my pc and the internet sharing option in hermes worked without any problems. Now with Vista Ultimate 64 bit i can connect the phone to pc, sync works perfect.
when i start internet sharing, phone builds up a GPRS connection but after 2-3 sec it disconnects the data connection and active sync authentication starts with vista.
In vista i cant find any modem connection in network settings. The only thing i found was in device manager when phone is connected to pc (HTC USB Modem)
here is my spec :
- windows vista ultimate 64bit
- mobile device center 6.1
- Framework etc. is installed
my Hermes:
- HTC_HERMES_S64_WM_6.1_TouchFlo2D_UC_V3_WWE_02.10.2008
- SPL 2.10 olipro
- radio ver 1.54.30.10
i have re-installed the drivers and device center several times without success.
What the hell i forgot or what i'm doing wrong...
Are there any tools or drivers i should use?
My friend has a vista 32 bit system. with his pc its no prob...some rndis drivers installed itself and we began to surf.
But in my vista 64, i missed this rndis driver installation......
Please can someone help me, i'm so confused...
Try checking your firewall... maybe disable it to test and see if it works temporarily.
Alright, thank you i'll try it on monday when i'm in office...
Ive no i-net there so i must be prepared, so are there any specific drivers or something i need to download? Or is device center enough?
Close Firewall doesnt really work...
Yesterday, i had a connection for one time...
In Device Manager, there was a "Remote ndis based Internet sharing device"
and internet worked...Today nothing works...
What have I to do in Vista? Should I deactivate some processes like wcescomm.exe? When I do this, It automatically restarts when Internet Sharing connection breaks down.
Could someone explain step by step how to get Internet Sharing work (Steps, Tools, Programs, Drivers)?!?
Thanks guys!
Same Problem
I am having the same exact problem.....
I HAD windows xp sp2 and everything worked fine once activesync was installed.....
I HAVE windows vista 64 bit and the device under the device manages show that its not working... it instals the RNDIS (whatever) drivers but dose not work...
I TRYed windows vista 32 bit, everything works fine..... the device conects with no problems...
SO the problem is that its VISTA 64bit so what would be causing this ???
btw my phone is a WM6 8525 from ATT with Internet Sharing
I need the internet sharing option when im at HomeHome and not at school, so im thinking about taking my laptop back to office depot!
So glad im not alone...
In meantime, in arranged with the prob... I think no one knows a solution...
hey guys i am not to sure if this is supposed to go here but can anyone tell me why my phone is unable to sync contacts and file with activesync 4.5
more details? what device, what rom? what OS?
i have tried many of the new roms including most of the manilla 2d roms on here i am currently trying tot do it with crc 13 stable and still no joy on a Rogers Htc TYTN
still not enough info, what OS are you running?! what error are you getting when trying to sync?
Activesync 4.5 problem
I'd like to jump into this discussion. I also have a problem with Activesync 4.5 recognizing and connecting to me Herm200. The oddest thing is that it has functioned correctly, but for some reason it isn't any more. I have two of the same device and it is the same for both. I also have a Wizard (T-Mobile MDA) and that device has no problems what so ever connecting.
Here are the specs of the OS installed on the Herm200:
WM5 ROM version 2.11.255.1
Radio version 1.38.00.10
Protocol version 32.71.7020.12H
ExtROM version 2.11.255.102 installed.
Any assistance to resolve this problem would be greatly appreciated.
Try: start menu>settings>connections>usb to pc and uncheck the checkbox
Maybe it sounds bizarre, but also try a different cable, in a different usb port, turn off your computer firewalls, and try cleaning your mini usb on the phone. I got a piece of dirt in mine and nearly tore out my hair until i got it fixed. I had a cable go bonkers, which gave me a lot of grief, and one time the usb port decided it DIDNT like my phone anymore
Plus, for some reason i have to diable the firewall everytime on nod32 until i can connect.
Hope one of those helps....

I have the same problem... T_T

Hope you can help me..
I just bought a Softbank HTC X01HT, when i connected it to my PC, Microsoft Activesync cannot detect it. But my HTC is charging.
What I did:
1. I am using a new USB cable, tried another USB cable = no success.
2. Tried to sync to another PC = no success.
3. Uninstalled Microsoft Activesync, reinstall Activesync = no success.
4. Did some research, uncheck "Enable advanced network functionality" = no success
5. Hard Reset = no success
6. Connection Settings --> Connect = "Your device was not detected"
COM 1 = Available
COM 2 = Not installed
Infrared Port(IR) = Not installed
USB = USB is available
and it gives the beeping sound (sound you get when you plug in your USB) but nothing happens after.
Btw, im using WM 6.1 Pro.
My Bootloader shows:
HERM200
IPL-1.04
HERM200
SPL-2.03
I'm losing hope.. T_T Hope someone can help me. Sorry for being such a noob. >.<
Thanks in advance!

I have had real buggy Active Sync problems only with the last 2 ROM's I've flashed, Joshkoss's V.10 and PDA's V.27. Both are using build 20759 which I think is the culprit for me.

thanks for the help man, doing this actually worked for me, one thing that i also had to do was restart both my computer and my phone before it would work.
By the way i am using CRC 13 on my HERMES

Oh my..., now I'm the only one that has the Activesync Problem. T_T
Two ROM's that I am using.. Pays ROM Lite & Full - WM6.1 WWE with Big Storage and 27/10/2008 ROM 3.62.502.20 (Manila2D) V.20 Build 20921 by PhamQuang.
What ROM can you suggest to test the Activesync problem? Thanks in advance..
If I'm using a usb cable to connect, how might this remedy the problem? I did try what you have suggested without success.

try using the crc 13 that i used but if it doesn't work right away try either checking or unchecking the box in usb to pc for enabling advanced network functionality
maybe its installin drivers on the computer possibly? because the sound made generally is a new hardware detect just my 2 cents
Just a thought but it may be the version of Office / Outlook being run. I've been running office 2003 w/ outlook, Active Sync 4.5 with my Hermes 200 on the original AT&T 6.0 for the last year without issue. My company recently upgraded everyone to Office 2007 and ever since my Active Sync has had nothing but issues with syncing especially over blue tooth.

Same here, I have a laptop that runs 2003 Outlook and that works fine, but 2007 - pah what a waste of time. Shame as I really like 2007, maybe it is better on Vista ?! Doing some reading around the web seems to suggest that syncing with 2007 is hit and miss. Works for some not for others, seems like MS strike again !
I'm running outlook 2007 and hosted exchange 2007 through infoquest. Not having any issues either way. May be you can post the error codes you get on active sync, I did have to enter some registry fixes on my laptop but it hasn't given me any issues.
Can't speak for anyone else but if I try to sync with Outlook 2007 all that happens is it goes into a weird loop syncing blank entries continually. Last time I tried I had over 300 blank contacts in Outlook and none of my Outlook contacts on my device ! No messages nothing. That of course is when it does anything, if I delete the pairing then quite often when I plug it back in it will repair and then do nothing ! I now use my laptop to sync up as it works with 2003 reliably.
I noticed the following thing: When using a rom cooked with a build above 20755, syncing under Vista is a challenge. It works when... it works. With a build equal or before 20755, it works like a charm. I flashed back and forth with 2 different builds. No programs installed. And I get the same results. Could it be related to some differences in builds?
So, we have to replace our desktop, and we picked up a new one running windows 7. Is it true that WM5 will not work with Windows 7's Mobile Device Center program?
If so, is there any backwards compatible program or tweek that we can do to still let WM5 sync with our outlook on Windows 7?
almost 70 views, and no help? Theres gotta be someone out there that can help! I am just trying to cut down on the surprises before we fully activate the new system, and explain to the wife why her iPaq wont sync, or have the correction when it does happen!

Sorry, I dont think there will be backwards compadability for WinMo 5..
I think its so old it might be time for an upgrade
One possible option i've used is running Windows XP in a VM (VMWare in my case) and syncing to Windows XP/Office that way.
Well, turns out whoever told me that was wrong. The system recognized and synced up our iPaq's just fine. So thanks for the help guys, but turns out Windows 7 Mobile Device Center recognizes WM5!
