[SOLVED] Disk Drive Mode with Xbox - Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development

With the new 2.03 official ROMs Xbox 360 no longer recognizes the Diamond in disk drive mode.
SOLVED: I finally figured it out! The issue has to do with the asyncmac.dll file so I created a CAB with a fixed version. Let me know if it doesn't work for anyone (worked for me!).

try this
Hi
Try this: Start --> Settings --> Connections Tab --> USB to PC --> Untick "Enable advanced network functionality" and ensure the "Disk Drive (Faster file transfer)" is ticked/marked.
Leave the Ask about connection type ticked if you frequently connect your Diamond to your PC for activesync features.
Good Luck!!

Thanks for your suggestion. I've already tried this but it doesn't make a difference unfortunately. I've also tried replacing the USBToPCPopup package with older versions but this also has no effect. Any other suggestions?

This is awful, I use my Diamond in disk mode on my 360 all the time !
Doesn't anybody know how to solve this problem?

Does anyone know all the files involved with using the disk drive mode?
I've already tried replacing these files with older versions but with no success:
SDHC.dll
SerialUSBFn.dll
msm7500usbfnhs.dll

hey frnd. am sorry i don have a solution but i do have a question if you guys could ans. i was planing to buy xbox. and am wondering dat is it possile to use diamond's 4gb storage memory as the memory card for xbox to save games and al? so dat i buy xbax core and use this diamond storage in place of buying a storage for xbox?

Me too I too want a solution fer this problem...... can't anyone help...

Revert to the old rom till a fix for the new is found and updated

try with installing wm5storage.
set NAND and active.

Xbox Memory card
Hey Guys! NO you can't use your diamond or any external HDD as a memory card for the Xbox. The USB ports i have been informed are read only. I regularly connect my htc to the xbox and it doesn't allow you to save to it.

The core comes with a 20GB if its old or a 60GB if its new!

The Core pack actually got replaced by the Arcade pack and it includes a 256MO memory card not a hard drive. The hard drives only come with the Premium and Elite packs.

i have always connected my diamond to my xbox360 to view the content of diamond storage. now only with rom 2.03 it dont work

It works perfectly with my PS3 Even via Bluetooth

I tried this but it made no difference. I'm guessing WM5torage accesses the USB for disk drive mode the same way HTC's USBtoPC app does...

SOLVED!
I believe I have found the cause of the problem along with a solution. First post has been updated!

does anyone know how to share a folder on your Universal

Hi, i have searched the forum for an answer but i had no luck, plenty of threads on how to map a drive of a PC onto your Universal but not the other way round, i have a folder on my SD card that has all my simple system tools for PC in it and i would like to be able to go to a WiFi network and be able to access the folder from any PC regardless of activesync.
I hope i didn't make my request too confusing but im sure you will know what i mean because it would be very usful
Thank you so much for your time on replying in advance
The best software for you is WM5torage.
By Ingvarr:This program will export the flash memory card as usual USB Mass Storage device (ordinary "usb disk") - effectively turning smartphone into flash reader. It works with many (not all) Smartphones and PDAs on the market that use WM5 as OS.
Latest version is v1.53 - it's free , fully working Mass Storage Software working with WM5.0 :
You can find previous version here:http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=45411 or new after some changes here:
Thats Brilliant, thank you so much for your reply, but i don't think i didn't explane it right, i already have a program for doing the USB mass storge,its called 'Card Export 2', its brilliant and so fast, but thats not what im looking for because you still have to physicly plug your phone in to a PC, i want to be able to 'SHARE' a folder on my phone, i.e Mydevice\my document\STUFF, just like you do on a PC, and then be able to run/edit/copy/paste stuff in that folder from another PC using WiFi, so in other when i go into work and connect my phone to the network using WiFi i want to be able to go to any desktop and access my files on my phone without wires, i.e in explorer type-
\\myphone\stuff
('myphone' being the name of my device & 'stuff' being the shared folder on my phone)
have i made it any clearer?
please let me know if im not making myself clear
hi jab1a,
in the past i was also dreamin about a solution you have described. in the meantime i have learned by other posts that this is not possible as providing drives or folders as a network ressource is not implemented in windows mobile. so no way of getting an easy solution for that. but in other cases wm5torage works very well for me until somebody has worked out a way for wireless sharing of folders.
best regards
peter
Hi,
I use a piece of software called V m Network Browser. lets you copy and paste files and play files over the wifi network.
Great app
its shareware but small price for a good piece of software.
hope this helps
hi nightspider,
thanks for your input. just one question left: is this software running on your desktop/server pc and it allows to play around with files on your mobile device or do you run the software on your mobile device and play around with files on your desktop/server pc?
greetings
peter
It was small misunderstanding from me :wink: . So maybe ( not tested on WiFi) idea of the ftp server on PDA :?: ?
You cand find ShareIt FTP( no shure if working on WM5.0 :?: ) http://www.noisette-software.com/products/pocketpc/ShareIt/
Hi peter_altherr
Yes it runs on the Pocket pc nothing needed on the desktop pc apart from the shared folders

wm5torage on TNT 2.0

I searched and looked eveywhere, I've been a leech here for a while since my wife got her 8125 and then I got my 8525. I'm running TNT 2.0 and I'm trying to use wm5torage at work because I can't install activesync and don't have an SD reader. The program works fine but if I try to transfer a large file I get an error that says "Cannot Copy: Data Error (cyclic Redundancy Check) " Has anyone had this problem? I am kinda new to the smartphone thing but I'm very familiar with flashing and homebrew due to being addicted to my PSP for well over a year. Any help would be great or if I missed something in my search, I'm sorry please correct me.
got the same problem ....
I also have this problem, but it's not related tot the TNT ROM. I used Pandora kitchen where the problem also appears by me.
I already tried formatting the SD card with Pocket Mechanic and Resco File explorer, tried FAT and FAT32, all with no luck....The only sol;ution wich worked for me was Softick Cardexport II. But this one is slow...real slow...BUT it works(program is not free).
I hope someone cann tel us the solution
It happens sometimes. You can enable (in the PC) the "Optimize for Performance" in the Device Manager -> WM5torag disk properties -> Policies to make it happens less times, but will got problems too.

New version 1.78beta2
List of changes:
- added the long-awaited option to lock card only when USB cable is actually attached (so when you will disconnect the device, it will automatically see the card again, without the need to deactivate WM5torage).
- fix of the regression bug on HTC Athena, should reliably work on long transfers again (1.73 was ok, 1.75 was not)
- added the feature to automatically disable "Advanced Network Functionality" on activation. This should remove the need to do this manually on Samsung-based devices, but having no such device I can not check - so I will depend on your feedback.
Can be downloaded here:

NOTE: Need to be registered in MoDaCo to download.

Works like a charm but you need to check the option "lock card on attach only" (I forget to do it the first time).

Need Windows driver minus ActiveSync

Is there a driver out there I can slap onto C:\ so that the computer will see my phone and let me drag files to it? I don't need ActiveSync atm just a driver so that the phone is recognized.
OS is XP btw

WM5torage if not in the ROM you using install it on device mem then you can see your storage card like a flash drive.

Turning off active sync on the phone and disabling auto connect on desktop active sync should force Windows to install your device as a flash storage device.
Well, the thing is that I want to use my phone on the desktop I use in the office. It's a company asset without Sync Center and it only sees the phone as a Generic RNDIS so that's why I'm looking for a simple solution.
Would WM5torage be the best thing? Would that have been in the Rose ROM 1.6 by Stylez and Ricky?

Yes if you click USBtoPC in the settings panel it there also in program group
I just found WM5torage on the device and activated it...not sure what that does with the phone.
It's all good now. That did the trick. Thanks guys.

Problem with active sync

Hello.
I have a problem regarding Active Sync just does not detect my phone(Touch Pro 2) and so I can not upload new romu. Nor can I upload anything to the phone memory. Somebody knows another way to load a ROM. Or to fix this error?
I'm from Polish so my English is not as good.
Welcome aboard,
Try leaving marked just the 1st option on start-settings-connections-USB to PC
Other option is that you flash from micro SD card
I can not install the card as it pops up an error that I can not copy files.

fiflakk, what orb is saying is to check the DOT next to "ActiveSync (Sync with Outlook)", and UNcheck the BOX right below it next to "Enable faster data synchronization." I've attached a shot of that screen so you can see what it looks like...
I did as you say, but I still can not detect the active sync

We'll need some more details:
-What version of windows/activesync are you using? For XP and older, you need "ActiveSync", but for Vista or Win7 you need the new version called "Windows Mobile Device Center"
-What exactly happens when you plug the phone in via USB? Does your PC respond in anyway, even just to give error messages? What messages does it give you?
-Does anything appear on the phone screen?
-Have you tried a different PC, or different USB ports on the same PC? Or a different cable?
-Has it ever recognized this phone on this PC in the past?

thanks for the help but just be advised the soft installed to close
i had a similar issue where i could not connect to activesync but could connect as disk drive. tried pretty much everything, my non connectivity was happening becoz i was running dot fred taskmgr and clearing the notifications. had to hard reset and active sync was back. i tried it a few times, as soon as i delete notifications i would lose activesync. stopped using that and now no problems, still have to figure out how to delete notifications and keep activesync alive.
