WMDC not working on Win7 - Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General

OK. I have a strange problem. I built a new PC and loaded Win7 x64 on it. Everything was working fine. I was even using my TP2 to tether. This worked for about an hour. After a few reboots and software installs, I could no longer connect to my TP2 either through tethering or through WMDC.
I struggled for hours to figure out the problem, but nothing worked. Finally I reinstalled Win7 hoping that would fix it. Nope. It did not. No matter what I try, Win7 fails to install the driver for the device. I have downloaded new copies of WMDC from MS and that hasnt helped.
Any thoughts? It is working fine on my Vista machine.

It may not be of great help, but mine works fine with w7 x64 (with USB). I am using the HTC official 6.5 rom.
It was a little more tricky to use the internet sharing with BT, a driver could not be found for a component but everything was working though. I had to force windows to use a driver for that unknown device to rid of this cosmetic issue.

RE-download the WMDC from microsoft. There is a driver update that will install. The WMDC that comes with Win7 didn't work for me either, but after I reinstalled it worked great.
Also, your ROM may be runnin a USBtoPC service for the Popup Window to appear. You might want to soft reset your phone and try again.

WMDC on Windows 7 RC1

WMDC was working fine for me until I upgraded to RC1 of Windows 7. It did tell me as I upgraded that WMDC wasn't compatible. The only thing I have installed which isn't in fact. Windows own mobile device centre is the only thing not compatible that I had!?!?!?
Anyway, I guess I'll try a reinstall, but does anyone know how I can get it WMDC working again?
(I'm using Dutty's 3.3 and W7 RC1 64bit)
Hi. Now I'm using Windows 7 Ultimate RC Evaulation copy. Build 7100 and everything is working fine. Even rom upgrades working with no poroblem.
hey guys - I'm using RC1 too but the 64-bit - never tried to use it to flash my device though (dual boot with XP)
its the last piece of the puzzle I need in order to migrate completely to W7 and wave goodbye to WinXP.
can you both confirm which versions you are using please? and if 64-bit did you have to install the vista 64-bit driver found on these forums or did it work 'straight out of the box'?
thanks
I have 32-bit version of Windows 7 RC. I just connect mine HTC TOUCH HD to PC and Windows install the drivers and Windows Mobile Device Center install automaticly. Now everything is working. cheers
As I said, I have 64 bit and WMDC wont even start for me
I have Win 7 RC1 64bits, and Duttys HD V2,4
You need to uncheck Enable faster data sync in Settings/Connections/USB to PC..
That dit the trick for me...
Hi! I have 2 notebooks, one with win7 rc1-32bits, the other with win7 rc1-64 bits. I connect my Touch HD on both, succesfully.
Htc Touch HD Aka Blackstone
Windows 7 RC (Build7100)
Everything works GREAT!!!
Flashing, synchronizing!
Must be your config
Windows 7 RC x64 here, can flash without problems, after downgrading HTC-USB drivers to active sync drivers
Windows 7 here X6. Everything works perfect
I'm using Windows 7 RC1 64BIT without any problem.
Have you upgraded from Windows 7 Beta to the RC?
Than you must uninstal WMDC before. After the upgradeprocess reinstall WMCD again.

This fixed it for me. Thanks
You shouldn't need to disable faster data connections. The reason that this method works is that it detects a new device and installs new drivers.
There are a few things to do, I am not sure which in particular does it, but I'vbe upgraded Windows 7 many times and some combination has always worked.
Reinstall WMDC 7.1
Manage partnerships and delete them all.
When you plug in your phone go to device manager, find your phone (if faster data connections is shown, it will be listed as a portable device and a Lan connection)
click "uninstall" on these items, and delete drivers if this option is available.
unplug phone. Wait
Plug it back in.
Let it install drivers
If this still doesn't work. Click on the devices (network connection and portable device) selelct "upgrade drivers" on each, searching the internet.

To be honest, now it works I'm not going to mess with it unless I have to. Will it be a slower transfer to the HD?
Hi all,
I had similar trouble with Windows 7 RC, however I followed the instructions posted at: http://capitalhead.com/articles/ena...synchronization-on-windows-7-x64-and-x86.aspx and that did the trick.
If I'm not mistaken, Windows 7 is supposed to download WMDC automatically, however it never did that for me. Hope it helps someone else.

w7-64bit RC1 here....
WMDC works fine (stock install) - use it both at home and at work, and i flash by renaming and copying rom image to SDcard\blacimg.nhb
Unistall
Try to uninstall WMDC and download and install another one from the internet! It work for me and i had the same problem...
W7 and Blackstone here. Flashing Syncing ... works great.
I know this thread is old but I am having this problem and none of the suggestions I have found out on the internet have solved it. I am basically having the same issue as most people in this thread have had but the REAL problem is that Windows Mobile Device Center will NOT install no matter what I try. I run the setup for it and it looks fine until it gets to 1 second left on the progress bar. Then it sits...and sits...and sits...until finally the bar rolls backward and the installation quits. No error messages, no nothing and no WMDC. I am running Win7RC x64. I will never get syncing working if I can't get WMDC actually installed in the first place. I did look in the event log and it seems there is an error related to VSS every time I attempt an install on this app. Anyone have any ideas?

Windows 7 sync problem

My Touch Pro 2 used to sync fine with my old PC running XP, but I seem to be having great problems getting it recognised on my new PC running Windows 7.
I've downloaded Windows Mobile Device Centre 64 bit, but when I connect the phone via USB, it isn't recognised at all and fails to install the correct driver - hence I can't sync.
Any suggestions greatfully appreciated!
I had the same problem
It seems to be 64bit windows 7 only.
Device cannot start code 10 right?
I ended up updating the BIOS on my computer and it fixed the problem. The BIOS update for my computer (core i7 870) had a fix for intel chipset and Iphone sync. Maybe it fixed for win7 64bit and titl2? I don't know if it was coincendece or from rebooting my phone with the reset button.
At any case, it is working now without an update to the phone itself.
I had the same problem, upgraded the BIOS...and still have the same problem. It will work, however, if I shut the phone radio off and start the sync from the handset. I think there is some conflict with sync from the exchange server. Standalone, it works just fine.
i have win7 x64 on my laptop. first time i plugged in my tp2 it displayed an error saying the device driver wasn't installed. then i opened action center and checked for solutions, the driver for windows mobile phone installed and the problem was solved...
I've noticed a similar issue when connecting to my laptop (Win7 x64). After connecting the phone, I get the "usb connect" sound but Device Center doesn't always start. However, I can see the phone connected in "My Computer".
Rebooting my laptop always allows Device Center to start the first time. But when I plug my phone in a second time, Device Center doesn't start.
I did notice that if I create the partnership the first time, Device Center seems to start more regularly than if I don't create the partnership...so maybe that's got something to do with it?

! Why KIES does not WORK

This is intended for people which run KIES and device is not seen, neither the message "connecting..." appear on KIES, and MTP application does not start on Samsung galaxy.
If you moved com.android.* and com.sec.android.* into some path which is not /data/data you may have this problem. At least this is what happend to me, after I moved file back MTP start and Kies recognize the device.
never moved anything it simply does not work on Windows 7 32bit.
no magic helped ... no formating internal sd nor anything else ... i've read whole fracking day on the web how to deal with this issue and none of the solution worked.
SGS GT-i9000 ECLAIR.XFJM3 rooted
disabling launcherpro fixed it for me.
im told other launchers cause issues too
Eh, really, problems on Win 7 32bit? Haha that's so strange because it works almost flawlessly on Windows 7 64bit. Perhaps the first time there's better support for 64bit than 32bit.
Yes, you MUST run TWlauncher (standard launcher in Touchwiz) and if you got Windows 7, you might wanna download some third party drivers.
I'm on Windows 7 64bit and I downloaded the win7 x64 samsung galaxy s drivers form softpedia.
well the mtp driver doesnt install on my 64 bit computer.
It works on windows 7 32 and 64 bit just fine
No third party drivers and no magic. It's all down to individual system config otherwise it would be the same for everybody.
Incidentally, there is an update out for Kies taking it to version 1.5.1.10074_45

Works fine for W7 32bit flawlessly to. Also for me on 2.2 it works under launcher pro as well, added bonus of not having to use home switcher (or the like) every time I connect the phone

It works fine on my copy of Windows 7 64bit, but I have to switch to touchwiz, and go to driver recovery in the kies menu.
I use XP at home and at work.
From home with JP6 and Kies 1.5.3.10093_82 I can connect fine using a cheap USB cable and with phone having Samsung Kies as default running LauncherPro.
At work Kies cannot connect to the phone... it just says connecting, please wait.... all the time, its wierd...
I guess I have to remove all the USB hubs on the work computer.... Will install Windows 7 Pro 64 bit at work soon so... maybe ill just wait until then...
Kies not working with LauncherPro. You have to create a shortcut to MTP Application, when you connected the phone and selected Kies need to start with this shortcut.
This is the only way to connect Kies with LauncherPro.
Somewhere I read about this, LaucherPro not recognised like TW.
Hope this helps.
The only way I have ever ever gotten kies was following these steps:
1. Completely close kies
2. Connect your phone
3. Open up device manager, find I9000 (should be under portable devices), right-click and disable (if device manager lags after you click disable then unplug the phone)
4. Replugin the phone and wait for it to say connected on the phone's screen
5. Re-enable I9000 in device manager
6. Fire up Kies and it should connect
These steps have worked every time for me
ps: I'm on Windows 7 x64

Not tested but seems to be approved
I'm on linux so i never used kies. Jusi odin all the way and i have nothing to complain about
This issue has become rediculous. Samsung fail so much with this usb ****. I run Win 7 32 bit and kies previously worked and even when it occassionally wouldn't I used odin.
Now unfortunately the phone just isn't recognised even after various driver and spftware reinstallations and registry deletions etc... etc... etc....

[Q] Desire HD / HTC Sync 3 doesn't work with Win 7 Ultimate x64?

so is this really a damn point that HTC has problems with it?
my system (win7 ultimate x64) cannot connect to the DHD with HTC Sync 3.0.5481 (wildfire edition).
i tried it so much times. again and again. deleted all drivers, installed it again. nothing.
if i press SYNC-mode when i connect my dhd to my pc, nothing happens.
wrong, there is something happen: there is an "android phone" in my hardware-folder...
but the drivers are WRONG! now, how can i get the REAL drivers, and HOW can i get this work.
the DHD is a very great phone, and i NEED to sync my outlook... this is necessairy!
thanks for tips and tricks.
cheers from switzerland!
Don't know about win7 64bit but I use Soocial to sync my contacts over various accounts and it will also sync to Outlook. No solution to calendar or other things tho so sorry
http://www.soocial.com/
Works fine for me on Win7 x64, I just downloaded the sync software from HTC, Installed, Plugged phone in and it worked.
Same here. Win 7 x64. Works fine.
I'm using it also on my x64 Win-7. I've downloaded the drivers from the HTC-site and it just works. I've tried it on my 'old' laptop, and last week at the new laptop I bought and on both it just works the first time.
Try to uninstall all the drivers, then download HTC Sync from the HTC-site and first install the software, then connect your phone. Hopefully that works!
From a fresh install on a machine that hasn't ever seen HTC Sync. Tried to install 3.0. Doesn't detect my HTC Desire. Tried rebooting, unistall/reinstall. I think the new version is bugged. Maybe if previous versions where installed it might work.
Not sure if it's relevant, but I had to disable my antivirus while installing HTC Sync on my Win7 x64 machine.
A lot of software says that, and I usually ignore it with no ill effects, but in this case it really did make a difference. The drivers didn't load correctly until I disabled the antivirus during installation.
So if you didn't disable your AV, it might be worth uninstalling HTC SYnc, disabling your AV, and reinstalling, to see if that makes a difference.
What version of MS Office are you using? I had kind of the same problem (win 7 x64), using office 2010 64 bit. I reinstalled office as 32 bit, and now it works fine..
I used the Sync that came on the SD card of DHD and it worked perfectly fine...i was able to Sync with Outlook etc., I also used to have a Previous version of Sync for Tattoo...that didn't have any impact...
In this case , i think the problem is because of the Wildfire Sync version. Try installing from the SD card, that works like a charm
cheers
KK
works for me. using win 7 ultimate (64bit)
must full charged before connect to laptop!
problem with HTC Desire HD, if connect to laptop, it charge and perhaps use more than 500mA (charger is 1A!!) and laptop can't recognize DesireHD, just display unknow periph.
After full charged, and green led, disconnect and immedialtly connect, and HTC sync work.
Working fine here on Win 7 Ultimate 64Bit.
As another poster mentioned, you will not be able to sync with 64bit version of Outlook so please ensure you are using the 32Bit version.
PS I downloaded and installed the latest version of HTC Sync from HTC's website.

[Q] HTC ONE M8 + Windows 7 64bit Enterprise usb drivers

Hi There,
HTC ONE M8 Usb is not recognized under windows 7 64-bit enterprise.
tried drivers from HTC sync and tried stand alone drivers.
On a different pc 32bit running windows ultimate it works immidiatly as well as on a VMWARE machine.
any advice please?
Thank you!!!
anyone?!
The latest version of HTC sync drivers should work. However you will have problems with 3rd party drivers on 64bit systems as they are generally not signed and Windows 64 bit will not allow use of these drivers unless you disabled driver signing enforcement
http://sabrent.com/support/knowledgebase.php?article=14
unfortunatly that didnt do any change.
whatever i do windows does not except the driver. I plug in the phone and immidatly it shows with a exclamation mark in the device manager.
tried different ports and different cable, i uninstalled any previous smartphone drivers and software, although it works just fine with another computer running windows 7 (32bit).
any hint on how to troubleshoot?
thank you!!
Solved!
solved by using 3rd party software (wierrrd)
1. install moborobo http://www.moborobo.com/
2. plug the phone with "Usb debugging" ON
3. Accept the "not signed" driver warning
4. It will now automatically install the driver succesfully after which you can uninstall moborobo and the drivers will still work

Worked fine for me when I installed it on my work laptop running the same version of Win 7. I've got admin rights but explicitly ran the downloaded file as administrator and once I had connection confirmed, I deleted the synch manager portion of the installation (hey, great idea - let's make people download and install 130Meg of files just to get Windows device drivers... NOT)
i actually found another way to work with this...
search google for windows xp mode. it will take you to the microsoft website and it will download a pc virtualizer with xp built in. the software is windows xp 32 bit. i just unlocked my bootloader using this and it works great
