Have you turned on visability on your handset in the BT options?

As far as i am aware everything is on including visability. Phone finds the TomTom no problem

device not connecting to active sync

Greetings,
Ok my device does not connect to activesync via usb but it charges and everything else goes well, so i thought that the connector has some fault and i gave it to service station and they said they changed the connector and it is fixed now, but now it doesnt connect i dont know whats the fault, now i think it is due to the rom, coz from when i flashed the shcaps 3.54c i cannot connect before that it was normal.
So is there any other way i can see if the connector is ok.

Don't know if they fooled U
but this is AFAIK related to the rom. Had the same problem overnight
and some others also had, so I remembered about this issue and posted.
Never needed this function (Advanced....), so what...
Nice that it worked.

Thanks!!!
Was getting headaches about this issue to the point that I wanted to throw my wizard out of the window...
Thanks a lot for making myday

Wifi Issue MDA Compact III WM6

Hello,
I searched the forum, there are some threads with Wifi issues, but not the problem I have, maybe someone knows the answer?
I upgraded to WM6 original from HTC to WM6.
I can connect just fine to wireless networks, no problem, everything is functioning. But......
If i'm connected en surfing the internet and running programs like messenger en checking email, after like 15-20 minutes i still have a connection but internet and messenger are not functioning anymore. The onely thing I have to do then is to disconnect Wifi and turn it back on. Then again it's functioning for 15-20 minutes and have to do it all over again.
I now flashed 4 times over because I thought that was the problem, but it wasn't.
Is there somebody out there with a good solution?
Thanks in advance!
**BUMP**
Nobody has got an solution??
I had the same problem, but when I installed my old rom the problem was solved
I understand, but I want to keep using this new WM6 Rom.
But thanks for your answer.
Anyone else with a solution??
check your access point.
it could be some limitations configured on wi-fi access point.
find another wi-fi access point, connect and see, if it is the same problem.
regards,
Thanks for the reply,
Wifi acces point/wireless router is functioning perfect, even with no security at all, problem persists.
Anyone else with an solution??
**bump**
Nobody has the same problem as me???
1. hard reset and test. make sure you don't have any software installed.
if this does not help
2. reflash device with different rom and test your wi-fi connection.

Thanks again for your reply, and your taken time to help me!
I reflashed it 3 times with the same Rom, Do you know maybe a similair Rom for me with WM6 for the Artemis?? So I can try to flash it again, but i can't find another ROM for my Device
i'd go for the B+B ROM or the Vanilla ROM, they are both based on WM6

hey there, to me is sounds like a sleep problem, try and adjust the signal strengh of the wifi connection.
goto com manager/settings/wifi
click on powermode and make sure you have it on best performance.
please try that and let me know.

WiFI on mda III???
i have a T-mobile(UK) MDA CompactIII and just wondering whether it has WiFi, because i cant see anything as such

Nope. The theory is that T-Mobile removed the WiFi hardware, so there is no way of using it. I have a Roaming symbol come up every so often, which makes me think otherwise, but i cant do anything with it.
**BUMP**
Somebody with the same problem?? It seems I cannot solve this problem??
I heard something of the 10 minutes time out bug for WIFI on WM6?
Maybe thats causing the problem?
Somebody please help...
same problem here can someone help please

[Q] Cannot properly share Internet through tethering

Hi!
It's been a week since I've been using my ZenFone, and everything is quite nice (except maybe the fact that I had to manually enter my APN settings)... however, I have not been able to share my internet to my laptop via Wi-Fi, nor Bluetooth nor USB.
I know it's something to do with the phone, because this entire week I've had to carry around my old Nokia Lumia JUST for this purpose. Other than this, I've been enjoying full 4G LTE speeds and all. APN settings are correct.
Is there something I'm missing? Thanks in advance.

Really weird I have the 551 4gb ram 2.33ghz and works flawlessly. Really don't know what to tell u.
I have Asus Android USB drivers and there is a folder named tethering... I think you have to install those drivers...But as i know android doesn't need any drivers for tethering....Still i have provided you the zip file...You can try installing those drivers and then maybe try to tether your device...Please confirm the working of tethering/drivers if successful

Yeah, drivers aren't properly signed so I couldn't install them. I gotta enable that, so perhaps I'll try later... however, the problem is not that my laptop is not connecting to the Zenfone; it's the phone that is not letting any device connect to the Internet.
On Windows (Windows Phone, and iPhones and an LG that I've tested so far), it shows as a limited connection when using Wi-Fi or USB. I've attached a screenshot of these cases when trying to use my laptop.
Thanks again guys

Try this , it worked for me before for other Android phone.
Connect laptop via tethering , after connection disable data and enable again.
I haven't had any issues with the 551 1.8/4GB on the pre-root image.

I gave that a try, and didn't work. I think the phone is refusing to route anything to the Internet. I tried to make a simple DNS query and it refuses to respond; trying to use Google's DNS didn't work either. This is astonishingly weird.
EDIT: I've also just updated to 2.15 and problem persists, by the way.
Zenfone 2 could not tether with internet on Fido
I have the same problem with my Zenfone 2 4gb ram 64gb not getting internet access after laptop or other phone connected to its hot spot. My carrier Fido said there is no settings to get tethering to work, it should work automatically as long as data was working with the APN.
Cannot fine any help on resolving this issue, very frustrating since everything seems to work fine.
Problem Solved. Update your Zenfone to v2.18.40.12 for ZE551ML while v2.18.40.7 for ZE550ML.
This OTA update came out just recently in June and now tethering works on my phone plus a lot of upgraded features too.

Smart Settings - My Place greyed out

Hi,
I have recently tried to figure out the Smart Lock Feature of the brand new LG G4 smartphone.
However I was not yet able to find any working solution to this problem.
Does anybody came across this problem?
Thanks
Same issue here..
You have to set it to high accuracy.
Thanks for the replies. However, I have set it to the high accuracy - see the picture.
Any other suggestions?

I think I cleared data in my places and my places engine then rebooted
I did not root the phone.
Restart did not help. Clearing data in my places and my places engine neither.
Any other ideas?

Same issue here. Mine is also grayed out. I've tried many ways to solve it but in vain. I am going to try jerflash's manner. It is indeed very strange!
I really wish this worked via Wifi networks. Mark X wifi network as home, and Y wifi network as work. I dont run GPS unless I need to. But it would be nice to have things toggle based off wifi or even just a general location. My work and home are 50mi apart, phone should be able to tell where I am haha

I've solved this problem!!!
Someone told me that "my place" can be only set on while using mobile network. If you use Wifi, "my place" can not be set on. This works with me! So happy I finally can turn on "my place" and use the smart setting. Hope this also works with you. Good luck! :good:
Oh, well, thank you. This fixed the problem. Thank you so much!
For anyone who comes here from a search: LG phones with Smart Settings only seem to work if mobile data are enabled. So if you have limited data allowance and keep mobile data normally disabled, you're out of luck.
