Hi all
My problem is every time I connect my TP2 to my lap top it starts WMDC perfectly but no sync at all.
Then I go to my device and ask from there to start sync, so it starts but it never finishes....
So no sync after all my attempts
I have Energy´s latest photon ROM without any other extra app installed.
I´ve tryed to untick the "enable faster data transer" in usb to pc
Any help is much apreciated
Thanks,
Bump
Any ideas?
I'm using EnergyROM build 21864 and have the same problem. What you need to do is go to USB to PC settings, tap the radio button next to "ActiveSync (Sync with Outlook)", and untick the box at the bottom that says "Ask me first about USB connection type when I connect the device to the PC". Unplug your device from the PC, plug it back in, and see if it works. It worked perfectly for me.
Thanks Dave
It worked!
Cheers,

Running Schap's 4.01
It was syncing perfectly and for some reason it wont do anything via usb other than charge!
There is no connection notification from windows when I plug the unit in, in hard reset mode the coloured RGBW screen says serial not usb as other times.
It syncs fine via bluetooth.
I've unticked "advanced" in usb sync options and still nothing.
Any ideas?
A windows driver maybe?

Peer guardian blocks all USB connections
Are you running Peer Guardian on your comp by chance?? If so, it blocks the phone from syncing via USB but bluetooth still works. If you are running PG2 jsut run Task Manager and close it then connect
No I'm not running peer guardian.
I am running vista though. Thanks for the replys guys, appreciate it.
Anyone else?
sounds like a driver problem then. Go to Device Manager and When you connect your Hermes see what appears and delete the driver for it, then disconnect then reconnnect and itll install a driver for it, then check for updates with windows update and there should be an updated driver for it..download and install it, reboot and try again.
I'm running Vista and had to do that a couple of times when I had the same problem you are.
make sure also that you have usb connection enabled in in device settings in windows mobile device center.
Well bugger me it was the cable!
It was a car usbcharge cable and guee what....... it had no tx-rx connections!
I have ActiveSync 4.5 on my laptop and set my TP2 up to Sync with my work's Exchange Server OTA and it's working fine. I then went to setup AS (USB) on my laptop so I could drag files over but it won't connect. It just keeps trying to connect then just stops and I get an error on my PC saying it couldn't connect to the device.
Anyone else have this problem or know how you might fix it? I looked at the other AS threads and didn't see anything that worked for me. I have killed AS and Soft Reset my phone but to no avail. The computer recognizes that the TP2 is plugged in but won't connect. The Allow USB connection is checked on the phone's AS too.
Thanks,
Had the same problem and deleted MS active sync then reinstalled it and it worked now if I can only figure out how to change the soft keys I'll be happy
Well I uninstalled and reinstalled but to no avail. Does / did your TP2 automaticlaly make a network connection when you connected it via USB?

When you connect your phone, just choose the File Transfer mode! It's faster and doesn't use ActiveSync. You should be asked that when you connect USB.
I think something is up with the laptop as I connect my phone now and it doesn't even charge. I'm going to remove active sync again, and then reboot and see if that fixes anything.
I'll look for the file transfer mode. My 16GB MicroSDHC doesn't come until today (if I'm lucky) so i'm still ahead of the curve on most of this.
Thanks,
Lance

Try a new USB cable. My USB cable broke on me a few days ago. Or try a new USB port, or a new computer. It should be charging. That means that your USB connection is bad, not ActiveSync.
Go to your Device Manager on your computer.
Look in Mobile Devices.
Find your phone
Right click on it.
Uninstall the driver.
Unplug the USB cord.
THen plug it back in.
It will go thru the installing process again.
I know this b/c I have done it too many times. hth.
Simple fix
Goto the start menu>Setting then to the Connections tab at the bottom.
Select USB to PC
UNCHECK Enable faster data synchronization.
ActiveSync should work with your PC again.

I'm going to try this with the issues I've been having, seems like it might work.
Activesync has been randomly losing connection to the phone and sometimes the phone will stop charging. I've tried 2 different usb cables including 1 I've used for a long time with no similar issue.
Once, I've even been connected to Activesync and seen the phone stop charging. This phone seems to be similar to the MDA in that the hardware has to go through the operating system to charge the battery. Ugh, once my MDA battery was so dead that I couldn't start the OS and thus couldn't charge the battery, that was fun manually connecting wires to the battery terminals to get enough charge that I could start the OS.

Yup agreed, that works, I have the similar issue my ActiveSync sometime disconnected itself. Performed the above steps, then it never happened again.
I can't find "Mobile Devices" in Device Manager on XP. Is that tip just for Vista?
Also I have unticked the "Enable Faster Data Synchronisation" but still I can charge but not get a USB data connection.
Any other tips!
Hi All,
Previously was working fine all along, think yesterday onwards, the phone does not charge when i connect it to my pc/laptop. The activesync does work fine though... It charges ok when i connect it to my mcakal usb charger though.... i dont think its a cable thingy since i can activesync fine..
- have tried to reinstall activesync as well, doesnt help
- Have tried to softreset phone too
- Have tried to uncheck/re-check the "charge when connected to pc" in the settings > power > option already...
Anyone can help???
Have you checked the setting under power options?
If so, and it is set to allow charging when connected to a PC, try a different cabl...
its working now... i checked it, softreset and unchecked it, softreset... now ok again.. lol
btw...the default should be off(unchecked) right??

When is unchecked, its going to charge when is connected on pc - That says If the device is on, during connect into pc DONT charge its battery.
Hi all. Have recently discovered my "Connect to PC" function has stopped working on my Desire. The default connection type is set to "disk drive" and the "ask me" (everytime I connect phone to PC) is selected. When I now connect I dont get asked, and the disk drive function doesnt work. In fact, it doesnt matter what dafault setting I use as they all do the same thing, i.e only charge the phone. Have tried to connect on both my laptops (that both had previously worked), but neither now work. Tried power cycling the device but this hasnt had the "desired" effect.
Anyone else had this problem or am I just being/doing stupid. Its my first post so go easy chaps .
thanks
I have exactly the same problem, I cannot connect to PC. The PC must register it connecting and disconnecting as it 'pings' but nothing showing under My Comp and nothing appearing on the Desire; tried all the Connect to PC options but no joy. It charges okay via the PC but nothing else..
Help anyone?? Huge thanks,
Gareth
I had the same problem but I managed to fix it by uninstalling the drives for desire in device manager.
hope this works for u.

Hi everyone
For the last couple of days I've been having trouble with getting my computer to recognize my phone. When I connect it, the usual red/orange LED starts glowing, but there's no reaction from the computer. Neither does the phone show any signs of having connected. The usual "choose which connection type you want box" doesn't pop up, and there really aren't any signs of having connected, other than the charging LED.
I've tried reinstalling Windows Mobile Device Center, tried switching cables, I've checked the connection settings on the phone, but can't find any irregularities there, so I'm a bit lost here. Do you have any thoughts?
For the record, I have a Rhod100 and I'm using Win7 64-bit, as well as Ubuntu 10.04 64-bit.
Have you unchecked the faster connection?
Start > Settings > Connections > USB to PC. Uncheck the enable faster connection. My win7x64 didn't wanna connect until I did that.
By "the faster connection" you mean the Storage Card mode right? If that's what you mean, then yes, I have unchecked it.
I have chosen the ActiveSync option, and have also enabled the option to always ask which connection type I want upon connection, however the box never pops up :/
Thanks for your reply

Activesync is the one that uses faster data sync, not storage card.
I know that the USB has a problem of going out for some people, so it could be an issue with that....have you tried to connect via bluetooth??

If the box isn't popping up, there is a problem with the USB connection try a different cable; if that doesn't work, take a magnifying glass and examine the phone USB connector - them may be some bent pins in the connector. If so, GENTLY straighten them out.
ActiveSync is picky anyways even if you have a good usb connection. On my xp compuer, if I want to connect without doing the setup (which I usually do, if I dont then it forces a push email account onto my phone if I sync), I have to hit the connect button in the activesync window. It flashes roms flawlessly, but disconnects often while file browsing. On my dads vista pc, it browses files perfectly but I have tried everything possible but cannot flash from it using wmdc. I would definitely try it on a different computer if I were you, your computer might just be acting funny
I just had the same problem and i tried all the fancy things you people are talking about.Its a manufacturing fault and needs warranty replacement of the board.noting else will work.

start the phone up in bootloader mode (powering on the phone with the volume -down pushed). The tricolor screen should come up with the word "serial" in blue in the white area. Then plug in the USB connector,that will tell yuou if your port is really bad. If not it will change "serial" to "USB"
Still if you haven't flashed it then send the thing in now, HTC honors warranties based on serial numbers so you don't have to deal with tmobile, but only if your phone is NOT hardspl'd or flashed with a third party custom ROM
I had the same problem on an htc diamond. It needed to go back and have the board replaced.
The fault is caused by connecting the phone to an in car charger and then starting the engine.
Took a while to happen.
