Help: I cannot Sync my i780 at all - Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking

Hello every one...
I got a very interesting problem.. I cannot Sync my i780 completely... !!
I'm running Windows Vista Enterprise on my Laptop, and installed Windows Mobile Device Center..
even though I can connect in USB mode, and detects my phone as USB flash drive...!
Everything was working before.. and suddenly stopped working!!!
I reinstalled Windows Mobile Device Center, hard reset my device.. and no good..
Then I gave it a last chance and tried on my PC with Vista Business fresh installation, and interestingly it did detect my device, and be able to establish a partnership!!
but I'm doing all my work on my laptop because of the job's demands.. and of course will not reinstall windows just to get the mobile device center to work..
Any ideas, help or hint, will be really appreciated.. it is urgently needed
Thanx in advance...

Suspect your laptop DHCP Client has disabled

What I am suspecting is your laptop DHCP Client has disabled. In the future if you face this problem again just make sure that DHCP Client service status in services.msc

Well.. The DHCP Client service is working.. it wasn't disabled before...
also I restarted the service.. and again no good.. cannot Sync neither through Bluethooth nor USB..!!
any more ideas??

what is your rom version?
If you use HH5 you should check utillity setting in program and change connection by cable from USB to active sync

I didn't flash my ROM at all by the way.. and it is set to ActiveSync not to USB I didn't miss that =)
hope that there is a solution out there.. =S because it is really mandatory for me to get some of my job done...
thanx in advance

Try turning off "advanced network functionality" in the USB connectivity settings.
Slows the transfer down a lot but whenever I'm having problems it works without fail.

But I don't have USB to PC option.. it just says how is the USB connection mode.. ActiveSync or Storage Mass.. and this is it.. probably I got different ROM.. very important thing here to note.. I didn't touch my ROM didn't reflash or upgrade..
Also I was digging for Advanced Network to disable but couldn't find any were.. =(

That's odd because my stock i780 (has DXHE1 on it) has the option for it.
I've had occasions where Activesync will just stop working for no reason and then come back to life a little later... I have no idea why.
Sorry mate, but I'm out of ideas...

Don't be sorry man.. =)
Thanx for your effort and time.
Probably I will reinstall the system after a while then =)
Best Regards

I thought it has something to do with the phone, but on any other computer that I not synced before , my laptop or new xp and vista instalations on other partition on my home computer(same computer and same cable, and same software installed!) it sync perfectly.
I tryied to find any residual registry or files to delete (i delete the profiles in document and settings) but can't find anything to solve this. I tryied reinstalling Active Sync 4.5 but donst help either.
Active Sync troubleshooting dont solve anything.
Someone know a workarround o what files can be creathing this ?
What do Active Sync while displaying "Retrieve settings" ?
Go into Start>settings>connections>usb to pc
untick the box...then try.
Thanks but dosn't help. Cannot enter that option, and I can sync on others pcs and other o.s. (in another patition) on the same computer without changing anything on the pocketpc.
I googled and found lots of peobple with the same trouble and no one find any solution.

What version of ActiveSync are you using?
well i tried with version 4.5,4.2 and even 3.8..but the problem still exists....any suggestions???
ActiveSync 3.8 can't work with WM5 devices
i tried with 4.2 and again 4.5..but nothing seems to b happend...wat to do now???
Ahmeed,
Use the Troubleshooter in the Help menu for Activesync 4.5; this will test your connections. Most likely scenario is you have a firewall or other security problem that is preventing the phone from connecting.

I second that.
but below fast support
1) disable your firewall and try to connect, if not o.k
2) on your PPC go to settings>Connections> USB to pc >disable the advanced network functionality.

Hi,
Did you solve your problem?
If not, did you delete any notifications from your device using either sktools or memmaid?
If yes, it may be the reason you cannot connect. Look at this thread and see if it helps:

Vista Sync Issues

Hi All, I have a Hermes with WM6 and have just installed Vista Ultimate and am not able to get my Hermes to Sync.
Vista claims it does not recognize the device . . . I have tried via USB & Bluetooth. Any ideas how I can resolve this?
Thanks in advance.
Same thing happen to me the first time what ROM did you use? I just use Fun key rom and everything works great.
Do you have Windows Mobile Device Center installed?

Even I have wmc6.1 installed, my computer doesn't recognize my Hermes starting from build 1921, it opens it as a storage device only, but no syncing !!, downloading Starbase's ROM right now and will try...
Vista has issues with everything its a pile of *beep*
I am also having similar issues. I just got my new laptop that runs Windows Vista Business and I can get WMDC 6.1 to sync and see the device but it will not load my contacts and calendar onto the latop. Its becoming very frustrating and I'm not sure why it won't sync the data. I'm running the vp3g 3.62 rom on my phone.
Try this...
Click...
Start-> Settings -> Connections -> USB to PC
Uncheck the box "Enable advanced network functionality"
if it is already unchecked, then try checking it. That seemed to work for me when I had problems with WMDC.
Still the same results for me. My phone can connect to the computer... it just won't sync the data.

Install Windows Mobile Device Center for Vista from Windows Download center. Then everything will work fine. It is my experience.
One thing that might help from my experience:
Take out the microSD card. I had some problems with it inside my phone - no sync. When I took it out everything worked fine! Then I formated my card and problem was solved... don't know what it was all about.
Last month i uninstalled the wmdc and then reinstalled it... i got the connection right but not always...
THen last week i had to reinstall windows and then when i did and update , i got an all new WMDC. This version works fine and good... No issues now...
I have the latest WMDC and have tried everything so far mentioned still and still no sync!?!
Very frustrating.
Any other ideas? Am I missing something really basic.
I have done something right!
After downloading WMDC finally the Jasjam was recognised however when trying to sync the following error occurs:
"Cannot connect with current connection settings. To check your connection settings, select Start, then Settings, then Connections."
So i went to that part of my phone but have no idea what I should be checking!
All help with this is much appreciated (if only things would just work )

TENXXX.
Hard reset always helps. Sometimes it's a bad micro SD card, I learned this the hard way.
I had all sorts of problem with Activesync before. Have since upgraded my laptop to Vista and instead of ActiveSync it has Windows Mobile Device Centre. No problem ever since.
I cleared my drive C (Laptop) installed Activesync and problem solved Activesync is working 100%.

The ROM is the Operating system part of the device. The radio is the part that controls all the radio functions lilke the GPS, cellular services, wifi, bluetooth, FM and such. It is not necessary to flash a new radio, but you could try any one of several English ROMs. Check the link in my signature for a listing of current ROMs for the Touch Pro2 (Rhodium).
ok,thank you,can you recomend me some rom,which is the best?

On your device, go to Start >Settings > Connections > USBtoPC. Uncheck the box that says "Enable faster data synchronization." Then plug it in to the PC and see if that works.

In USBtoPC there is only one checkbox. The others are radio buttons. The checkbox should be under the radio button for ActiveSync. Make sure that box is unchecked and ActiveSync is the selected connection. After that, just tap OK and sync.

Try it on a PC with XP Pro x86 with the language pack installed. ActiveSync should immediately pick it up and connect.

The original HTC cable is an eleven-pin miniUSB cable. I have only ever used the standard five-pin miniUSB cables like the picture you linked to since I got the device a year ago. In fact, I just built and flashed a ROM to it using that cable two days ago.
I'm not saying that that isn't your problem. Maybe it will work. I'm just saying that I have never needed it.
i don't know what else it could be,i connected the phone with pc once,and i hardslp the phone,then several days leter i conected it once again and active sync started i selected x beacuse i didn't need acivesync because i only wanted to charge the phone,tommorow i tried to connect phone with pc,i tried 100 times and i can't sync it,activesync won't start on phone when i plug usb cable in it,it only charges the phone.

If you already have Hard SPL, then you can flash ROMs directly from the SD card. If you flash a new ROM, it should restore your connection settings and allow you to start over.
thank you,that is so cool,yes i hardspl the phone,i will go and buy memory card,than i will install new rom,and radio.
thank you so much.
