Windows 7 + Mobile Device Center... NOT COMPATIBLE

Hi guys!
I'm on the Beta testers Group from the new Windows 7, and the problem that I have, is that my HD won't be recognized by my PC ever since I've upgraded from Vista.
The error message that it shows is that "Mobile Device Center stopped responding" and then it gets shut down.
I tried restarting my PC several times, even my phone, but I'm still unable to synch them together...
Toughts?

Hey, had the same problem. You have to remore the software (mobile device center) and reinstall it from windows.com you can find the software easy with google I've spend hours with that little problem now it works fine =)

Check your network, ensure your PC could connect to Internet and allowed to update Windows. I got the same problem when I install Mobile Device Center on my company's network, and when I install it from my home network, it run without any problems. MDC is compatible with Windows 7, it run smoothly. I up rom for my HD 3 times since I use Windows 7. Good luck.

Reinstall shoud solve the problem. Which build of windows 7 are you using? I´m on build 7022 and never had a problem with the mdc.

Hi! I will try what you said. So far, I'm still unable to download and reinstall the MDC sucessfully. As soon as I get home, I will do that and see what happens.
Thanks!

how odd, i too am on this beta testing and running an almost functional 64bit version, and WMDC is working fine for me, this was of course a fresh install and when installing WMDC i used the compatability settings for vista, perhaps that was the trick for it working on mine.

Ok than you are runing on build 7034 or 7032 right? I´m a professional software developer but I don´t want to say here at this forum for who I´m working for.
The only problem I have on my windows 7 build 7022 is that the compatibility mode isn´t working but I haven´t found a solution for it yet.
So is there a error message when you try to run it? Or a error hex-code?
Here you can see mdc on my 7022 build:

Strange!
I'm running Seven 7000 with no syncro/MDC issues.
Untill today, i've already tested 4 or 5 different ROMs with no problem at all.
Should be a device/driver/compatibility problem as I have no one...

Had a similar issue at first, but since a reinstall of win7 everything has been ok and its been a good month or 2 now without any problems.
For the record I also upgraded from vista, a full rebuild did solve the problem.
now syncing on 2 win7 machines x64 on desktop and x86 on netbook.

USB Storage Enabler

Hello together
I developed an "USB Storage Enabler" Tool for Windows phone 7, so you can easy enable or disable the WP7 USB functionality.
You need to have Zune installed and one device connected for least one time.
To enter the USB Storage you'll close Zune.
Now you can use your phone like a simple USB Stick
This tool requires .NET 2.0.

Oh,... try to run this tool as an administrator. (maybe UAC or somethings is blocking some registry functions)

i run it standard, without admin.
ps. i have chevron hack + NoDo updated + all wp7 developer programs
AND it woks fine! DANKE!

I have NoDo + Locked + WP7 Tools + UAC disabled.
Mhm,... I'll try this on another machine.

danke!!! Thanks!!! that's the tool we were waiting for!!!! you're the man!

Works great with my (locked) HTC Arrive.

Works great with my unlocked HTC 7 Pro(Win XP,Win 7)

Works with Omnia 7 but I am seeing two icons for portable devices in my computer... Can you look into this?
Phone is on NoDo with C7 unlock and Samsung tools to prevent relocking.

It enables all found zune devices. If you've flashed your phone to a new version the "old one" (=zune device registration) is still stored in the registry. Ignore them :]

Works fine with Win 7 and HD7 after starting with admin rights...cool !!!

I did this change in registry when it was announced public, but unfortunately "My ringtones" folder is not visible...
Is there any way to access it from Windows Explorer?
Anyway, this is a great tool for not having to mess around in registry

Could anyone supply a 32bit version of the driver's for me to add ?

You can download HTC Sync Manager from http://www.htc.com/uk/software/htc-sync-manager/#download which can be installed on Windows 8 (although it may not run properly!).
This will install the correct HTC Drivers (32 or 64 bit) v3.0.0.023 which are later than the driver above.
If you don't require Sync Manager then that can be uninstalled afterwards without uninstalling the drivers.

the point why I wrote this if u install HTC sync normally on windows 8 the driver folder is empty because their is no drivers for Windows 8 so I wrote this to show people who didn't know that u can install the windows 7 drivers

I use it since first developer preview. And i can say, it`s faster than 7. I use dual boot, cause there are still some things I need under 7, and I compare them both on one machine, so i know what i`m saying.
And, untill now, I had no problems with drivers...

Maybe because HTC updated HTC Sync and Sync Manager last month and they included drivers that work on windows 8

HTC updated the installer and the Sync Manager, but it is not working.
During the installation, the installer is giving an error message, that the driver package can not be installed and it is asking, that we would like to continue with installation of sync manager... So, the 1.1.48 version is wrong.
But I found a workaround: You have to install first the older sync manager: 1.0.42.2 and then you have to update it to the newest 1.1.48.
The old version will install a HTC Driver version 3.0.0.024. During the update the error message appear, but you have already installed the drivers, so you can continue. With that workaround I have working the tethering and the sync maneger too.

Herold

Problems connecting to PC on latest JB leak from Baadnewz

I am having issue connecting to PC (on XP here but also issues on Vista 64 at home). No matter what I try I can't access storage to copy to/from my PC to my phone. I understand that JB now uses MTP rather than USB Storage, but having spent about three hours now trying to find a solution I have to admit I am completely stumped
Having tried many options without success, and having installed and uninstalled HTC Sync at least six times I have started again from scratch reinstalling everything I could think of which might have a bearing. I have just reinstalled the full SDK, installed Windows Media Player 11 (for MTP), reinstalled .NET 4, installed latest version of HTC Sync, but still when I connect I get an error in device manager with Other Devices>Android Phone (also get the Hardware Wizard popup which always ends up saying not installed/could not locate software even if pointed directly at the Google USB driver folder in the SDK so it's obviously not this), and in HTC Sync it always shows no device connected. Fastboot and ADB both see it (devices). If I disable USB Debugging then it is recognised as an MTP device but then the Android Phone error kicks in and Sync doesn't see it.
This is my issue:

On the Android device in device manager right click then uninstall, tick delete drivers if the tick box is there (sometimes it isnt)
Keep doing that until it doesn't even say android device (it will keep reinstalling it) it should say unknown device or something similar. Then reinstall the htc driver software and try again
Windows buggers up like this sometimes, has several drivers for the same thing, AFAIK its a case of getting rid of all the "spares" and installing just the one driver
Hope this helps

Just download the HTC Sync Manager : http://www.htc.com/us/support/software/htc-sync-manager.aspx
Install then uninstall the HTC Sync Manager (if you don't use it) and leave the driver. You'll get the newer version HTC driver 4.13.0.003

Tried this; still get same error

So I installed Win 10 TP on my other computer, plugged in the phone after using those drivers and it worked perfectly fine.
So that being said, what could be causing the issue on this build because i did a new install of win 10 on it today.

Finally figured it out! All day over here....

I had originally installed Windows 10 TP via a USB drive on a USB 3.0 port. At first that seemed to be what caused my issue along with various other random issues. Installing Build 9860 via a USB 2.0 port has since fixed my driver signing issues with HTC. However, the phone/computer connection is still finicky and sometimes requires a few reboots or re-installing the drivers to get it working. I chalk that up to the technical preview being alpha.

Mine works on Windows 10 Technical Preview. I had to plug the device in two separate times. One time when it was fully booted to install drivers and then I had to plug it in in fastboot mode to install drivers needed for ADB to work properly or it would not recognize the device.

can you take snapshot for that coz I didn't get it yet ... it's been a wile trying to do it .... PLZ need help ??

Has anyone been successful with getting it to run on Windows 10?
