Just bought the Tilt 2, and I want to flash to something more customizable. However, when I plug it in and try to activesync, it just says "connecting" for a few minutes, then i get "error". I unplug and replug, but to no avail.
I am running Windows 7, with the latest version of WMDC. That is set to run in compatability mode for Vista. The driver for Windows 7 is good, when I plug it in I get the beep, and it shows up in device manager.
I have also set up the phone and unchecked "enable faster data connection", but that didnt make any difference either.
Thanks for any help you can provide!
Have you try unticking all the tabs except the 1st one on settings-connections-usb to pc?
Then of course discconect and soft reset before trying again
Hope it helps
Not sure which one of those did it, but it works!
Thanks for the help!
Glad to know it helped

I was upgrading, actually replacing rom, got error 260, phone locked up, now after reboot usb device not recognized. Had recently flashed it no problems, just had a few lockups, so thought I'd reflash it. Tried it in laptop and desktop winxp, and desktop with vista. Any idea if I bricked it? Any solution?
Phone works and charges, just cannot get the phone to be see properly by computer. Thanks

Check and make sure that "Enable advanced network functionality" is checked
in the "USB to PC" option in settings.
Thanks for reply. This was helpful. It was checked. I unchecked then rechecked it several times, did a repair reinstall on activesync; Now, it works! Don't know why it works, but thanks for insight, I'm sure it helped.
Still can't flash rom, no matter what and on different computers I get the error 260. Help, anyone. Thanks
Hey guys, I just came from PDA v23.
I wanted to install crc 14.1 naked bs.
So I installed the at&t stripped version, then crc 14.1 rom.
But after that, I had a lot of problems connecting Active sync with the phone.
I have plugged it into the computer, and it does charge it, but active sync just stays with the gray (idle) icon, nothing happens at all, even if you soft reset it, click on sync or enter the bootloader, nothing happens.
is there something I'm missing?
if it helps, when I plug in the cable, and as soon as it goes in and turns the light amber for charging, activesync does open on the background, but it never syncs not turns green, it does not even try it.
I just tried a different cable that works, and didn't work. Tried another computer and it didn't even bring the message for found new hardware wizard.
Maybe a file was lost, or a driver that recognizes the computer?
I killed the 3 processes from AS:
Wcesmgr.exe
Wcescomm.exe
Rapimgr.exe
And reconnected and opened AS from my phone, and press sync, didn't work.
I also tried restarting computer, neither worked.
I tried using applications that I found to terminate AS like Kill Sync and ReSync, they killed ActiveSync and reopened it, didn't work still.
I've been trying to do this on my work computer, which always worked before the upgrade.
Yesterday I tried connecting the usb into my computer but nothing, also if I connect it to any computer, not even found new hardware wizard comes up.
Tried bluetooth synching, and that worked.
I also tried the WM5 storage prgram, that is not working either.
I thought that maybe I could edit some registry and make this work.
But I tried disabling advanced network functionality, didn't work, enabled it back on, nope.
I think, I'm gonna have to flash it back to the original ROM but as I tried the RUUWrapper is not able to detect my phone, not even on bootloader.
I have a SDHC memory only, and not able to get an SD one.
What can I do in this case?
I have tried multiple things as you can see, and have tried looking on google, but nothing has helped.
I want to see if flashing it to another rom will work, but I'm not able to do it without Active Sync.
How can I flash it back without ActiveSync or fix this Active Sync connection?
Please guys I really need help on this as I'm running out of troubleshooting steps.

did you go to the USB to PC settings and checked the use advanced config?
When I do that it works immediately... maybe try a soft reset and see if it's still
with the right configuration? (unchecked)
Yeah, tried it, but tried it again, checked and restarted and unchecked and restarted, both didn't work.
Thanks for your response.
So I was bored tonight and figured I'd try installing some new firmware on my T-Mobile Dash. A Google search brought me to this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=354126
I followed the instructions and installed that firmware and it appeared to go off without a hitch. Then upon further exploring the forums here I discovered that there's a WM 6.1 firmware out so I thought I'd install that one instead.
Turns out, after doing the first sync my phone now absolutely refuses to connect to my computer no matter what I do. I've been desperately trying to get it to connect for over an hour. I've rebooted the device, rebooted the computer, tried a different computer, nothing will make it connect. The PC makes the "usb connected" sound effect when I plug it in, but WMDC can't detect it and nothing shows up in My Computer.
Any ideas? This phone is pretty worthless if I can't get it to connect to the computer, I really need to get this working.

Settings\Connections\USB to PC untick enable advanced network functionality.
I'm not sure what i did but when I plug my phone into my Vista equipped laptop, it gives me the "USB device not recognized" message. I have done all the general trouble shooting. A friend has a mogul and for Sh**'s and giggles, I plugged his phone in and wala, the drivers instantly downloaded and WMDC wanted to sync with it. Is there a way to format the phone or someway fix this problem so I could sync, flash the phone, and start from scratch??
Open up Settings\Connections\USB to PC if enable advanced network functionality is checked, uncheck it and try again. Thats what i had to do for my HTC 8525 after upgrading to wm6.
I need to change my ROM, becuase this one I have now just totally screwed up, really badly. I dosent save any contacts and just will always fail synchronizing. Ok, my idea is to revert to the stock ROM, and in order to changethe ROM I attempt to connect via ActiveSync and it does the 'Connecting' thing and then it just says Error.
Please help
And now it dosent even recognize at all. When I plug the phone in via USB mode, it does, but when I say connect via active sync, active sync on my pc dosent open up, and when i open up, it dosen't say connect, or connecting just remains disconnected. can you hard reset your device without using active sync?
Hi!
if you're using windows seven or vista you must have "windows mobile device center" instead "activesync".
perhaps..
You can try going to start>settings>connections>usb to pc
Select "activesync" and unselect the "enable faster data sync" option.
Then try it on your pc again!
flash trough bootloader press volume down when the phone is off then flash trough ruu
