2005 and Activesync 4 connection?!?

Not sure if this is the right place to ask but here goes. I keep reading about problems syncronizing with 2005 and Activesync 4 while others have no problem at all. Well, I'm stuck in the middle - My desktop sees the pocket pc and trys to syncronize but hangs on the syncronizing spinning wheel (before it asks for a new partnership). I have no partnerships setup, pocket pc has gone through a couple of hard resets to be sure, desktop has been restated with activesync installed - uninstalled - installed. I love 2005 but am running out of patience. Any help would be much obliged. By the way, GREAT work by all of those who let us simpletons run the latest and greatest OS on our ppcs - I take my hat off to you.
Thanks,
Travis

I had the similar problem on one computer. It seems to be a buggy USB on motherboard. Motherboard supported only USB 1.1. Fixed by changing the computer.

Still no luck with USB 2.0
I'm back in the office and trying to setup a connection with my desktop through USB. It works fine on my laptop and immediately asks to setup a partnership but on the desktop the wheel just keeps spinning saying connecting. I've checked that the USB is 2.0 and it picks up the device fine but does nothing more. Done a few Hard resets and windows updates qwith AS 4 install/uninstall as well. I tried van's solution herehttp://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=20505&highlight=activesync+2005 but all I get is an error message saying "Unable to obtain a server-assigned IP address try again later or enter an IP address in Network Settings. The final blow is that I've tried it on 4 other computers all with fresh Activesync 4 and USB 2.0 and 3 worked fine with 1 showing the same "errors" as mine. As I said in my first post - ANY help or thoughts are appreciated.

Re: Still no luck with USB 2.0
Any luck yet? I have exactly the same problem with my laptop.

Its happen to me also many times...my solution is...I am using diff PC/Laptop with USB1.1/2.0...
End the process of ''wcescomm.exe/rapimgr.exe/WCESMgr.exe" in your task manager. Open again the ''wcescomm.exe/rapimgr.exe/WCESMgr.exe" in your PC ''Program Files/MS AS Folder'' after connecting the device. check also the USB connection setting of AS.
Hope it works to you...

Welcome to the club. Alot of people are complaining about this, yet the people who actually have a fix, have yet to post it. This thread will be locked cause its been "asked before". So before that happens, what i did was create a mail2web account and sync all my contacts thru their free exchange service. Works like a charm and it does it all for you on the fly as soon as you finish entering a contact on your phone.

I boot Windows maybe once every few months--and then only for a few minutes, plus I've never had sync trouble with WM6.1 under the Vista Home Premium I do have. I searched a little. Seems people with the same symptoms actually have different problems, so the fixes are different. Just saying "I upgraded and can't sync" isn't enough information to really go on.
Yes, this has been asked before (about five or six threads alone in the past couple months.) And yes, it has been fixed for many people. Just because a fix works for someone else doesn't mean it addresses your own personal problem, though.
Some possible fixes mentioned over the last two months or so:

This might be stating the obvious but just in case, you almost always have to remove your old pairing before it detects the new version. I try various rom versions often and mine has never paired if there is an existing pairing. You must delete the old pairing and let it detect and set it up all over again.
Once I did get two devices to show up but sync center didn't respond after that.
Also it should be stated that many times when deleting a pairing it doesn't actually go away and I must reboot in order for it to actually remove. If this happens and I don't reboot it stops doing its job but still responds to mouse clicks. I have tried restarting the services to no avail and seems only a reboot fixes.
My experience has been with my phone with about 6 different ROM versions and with my team's devices as I upgraded each one (~5 devices) and I found each one required me to remove the old pairing first and re-setup a new one each time.
Hope this helps,
Chris

Update active sync
Update to the newest active sync. If you have Vista, you have to go to windows mobile sharing center and sync it that way. It will set up your dash, until you go to the sync center, nothing will happen. Trust me, nothing.

Windows Mobile Remote Adapter cannot start, error code 10

First I have to state: I've already searched the web and xda-developers forums. Tried all solutions found, none work.
I don't connect my HTC Touch Pro 2 to my computer (Vista 32bit) often; other than the first few days, when I was downloading a lot of softwares to my device, I don't connect them at all. But the point is I was able to connect to WMDC.
Yesterday I wanted to try out Pocket Diablo, so I had to connect my device in order to install .NET CF 2.0. But I found I can no longer sync:
- Before I connect the device, I can see WMDC's green tray icon
- After I plug in the device (using the cable from HTC), WMDC's tray icon disappeared.
- I checked Device Manager, and found "Windows Mobile Remote Adapter" cannot start, error code 10. There was no mobile device listed.
- I tried another USB port, same result. I tried uninstalling all USB hubs and root hubs, let them reinstall, reconnect device, same result.
- With device still plugged in, I uninstalled "Windows Mobile Remote Adapter" and deleted the driver too. Then I unplugged device, uninstall WMDC driver update and WMDC itself, reboot PC, download WMDC6.1 from Microsoft again, reinstall WMDC, reboot, still no tray icon, and reconnect device with same result.
- I tried the above together with giving Users group full control on the registry key "HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\Current Version\Svchost\WindowsMobile", same result.
- If I uncheck "advanced connection" on my device, there is no "Windows Mobile Remote Adapter" in device manager, but there is a generic mobile device listed. In WMDC it still thinks there is no device connected, and I cannot access the device in Windows Explorer.
- If I connect the device as a disk (under device's USB connection settings), I can access the device through Windows Explorer.
- I even hard-reset my device, still same result.
- I tested my old O2mini, same result.
- I don't recall any big changes on my system since my last successful connection.
- I tested my HTC Touch Pro 2 in my office (Vista 32bit), and it can be connected successfully.
So it seems the problem is in my home computer; the Windows Mobile Remote Adapter (version matches WMDC6.1's version) refuses to work in all cases.
Other than taking the sync cable in my office back home tomorrow, I'm all out of ideas of what to try next.
Can anyone give me a helping hand?

Bump. Please help, I really need to solve this.
- I'm taking the cable in office home, but I highly doubt that is the reason because with the cable at home I can connect as a disk and can charge.
- I notice in office (the successful case), the remote adapter is named "Windows Mobile Remote Adapter #2". At home (the failure case) there is no #number, just "Windows Mobile Remote Adapter".

Tested and it is not the cable. Cable used to successfully sync in office has same effect at home - Windows Mobile Remote Adapter cannot start, code 10.
I tried enabling WMDC debug log, but there're none - looks like the process failed at the driver stage and WMDC is not even started.
Also, when I have the device connected with the non-functioning driver, it seems to wreck havoc on my real network driver. I often need to reconnect my network connection.
Can anyone help?

It's getting weirder and weirder...
- I reinstalled WMDC for the countless time, and suddenly I am able to connect to O2mini (which does not connect via a network adapter). O2mini shows up in WMDC (can setup a partnership) and explorer. But not HTC TP2.
- If I disable advanced connection on TP2, I can connect TP2 as a Mobile device, but there is no network adapter. WMDC detects no connection, and I cannot view TP2 in explorer.
- I tried connecting O2mini again after TP2's failure, and O2mini cannot connect too - device manager shows no problem, but in WMDC I get nothing but the red stop sign and a simple message: "Error". No entries in event viewer.
And is anyone even reading this thread?

I was having a similar deal. Sync works solid on XP at home, was working but then stopped on 2 laptops with Vista and giving me those error codes.
I did the same things as unistalling mobile center on vista to no avail.
What did work was going onto the device, Start/All Applications/ActiveSync. Then Menu/Options and delete on the laptop PC's.
Now when I sync my vista laptop to the device it shows up as an additional device. I can copy files to it, I'm not sure if it syncs any other info.
The active sync also has an option for connections where you can uncheck "same for all pc's". I didn't try that one, but it might do something.

Update the Driver?

You mean removing the partnerships? I already did that - I had hardreset my TP2 for nothing too.

I tried, but Vista said I already have the latest version (6.1.6965.0). I tried uninstalling (and fill the checkbox to remove the driver) and reinstalling, no difference.
It has to be something not right on my computer's drivers.
I'm going to compare the driver files of my home and office computers and see if there are any difference...

I copied all files related to the Windows Mobile Remote Adapter home, and compared them to mine. They are all identical.
I also tried forcing Device Manager to show non-present devices (by setting two environment variables), removed the related ones and tried again. Same result.
I'm all out of ideas now.
I'm even considering moving up to Windows 7 (Ultimate 64-bit), hoping that will solve my problems.
-- but what? They leave me with a nasty bug and I consider paying them even more? Whiskey, tango, foxtrot?

Awesome, finally i found someone that has (i think) 100% my problem.
Let me ask you this, what is your computer specs? Because this happened to me after i got a new computer >.< .
Mine is
Asus p7p55d LE motherboard
i5 50?
Crucial Ballistix 2GB (2 x 1GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1333 (PC3 10600)
I also have a HTC Touch pro2 (verizon) but i have testing my computer with a Samsung Omnia (verizon) to confirm my problem.
Edit: BTW this is on a Windows 7, just throwing it out there so that people can be even more mind boggled

Asus P7P55D Deluxe
Intel i7-860
2 sticks of Kingston 2Gb
I got my TP2 from Fortress (Hong Kong), they added a bunch of goodies in the ROM, like the radio cab, 1% battery driver, a business card scanner, etc.
You have the same problem on Windows 7? I am going to buy W7 tomorrow, I'm going 64-bit...
If I get the same problem in W7, then well, damn... at least I can connect TP2 as a driver and write data to it. But if I need to install anything from the PC-side, I'll need to rip the cab out of the installer.

holy crap then i think i know why its not working. Maybe its because of the new chipset p55? Doesnt support the drivers? or something

Definitely not.
Plus I have sync'ed successfully before, and my TP2 plus cable can still sync in office, advanced connection on. It's a software problem.

I encountered the exact same error in Windows 7.
The Windows 7 is a fresh install, Windows updated, and installed 64-bit version of WMDC.
Darn.

First, sorry for my very bad english.
I had the same problem ( Error code 10 with Microsoft Mobile Remote Adapter) with p7p55d and Windows7.
It was a trouble with my asus p7p55d.
- I updated my bios to the 0711 version (this version does not appear on AsusUpdate, i found it on www.asus.com)
- I uninstall old Windows Mobile remote adapter
- I uninstall WMDC
- reboot
- simply plug my phone and let windows update do the job. This time it was good for me...

I have the same issue with ASUS P7P55D PRO and Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit, even with BIOS 0711. I tried all the ideas, nothing helps.

The same problem for me.
Windows 7 64bit,
Gigabyte P55M-UD2 Mainboard

I report great success with this problem!
Like suggested from a previous poster, i did update my bios to 605 (this is for p7p55d LE). But i noticed one thing, the setting for Plug and Play was set to that the bios handled it. I changed to so the that OS (?) handled it instead and tried everything again.
Happy to say (after some extra problems that does not pertain to this error) i finally got it to work. Hope my experience help others.

Encountered a similar issue yesterday.
WMDC could not sync. Although when selected as a disk drive, it connects fine.
What fixed it for me was to disable this setting in the device: Settings/connections/usb to pc/enable faster data synchronization.
Exit out, no reset required.
Good luck.

I have the same problem since my new gigabyte p55-ud5
i have windows 7 Ultimate. my htc diamond work fine for one week, then it stoped sync.
i think its somthing with the memory....
i tried to change the speed on my corsair DHX 2GB from 1600Mhz to 1333 and it worked for couple of days.
then it stoped sync.
tried to add voltage in bios but no good.
updated the bios - then it only worked with memory speed 1333 or 1066.
i shutdown my computer only once in a week.
then it started again. now no matter what i do - no SYNC.
i searched for this error alot and the common hardware is:
P55 + vista/win7 + HTC.
PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Firm-up!
i have a good news!
Finally i got it after firm-up the bios.
Asus p7p55d turned out to got a problem installing 'Windows ... Adapter'

USB Device Not Recognised - A NEW APPROACH

I'm hoping the wisdom and expertise I always find on this forum can help me.
I have a new AT&T branded HTC Touch Pro 2 (Tilt 2). After about a week, I began getting the dreaded "USB Device Not Recognized" error any time I plug it in. It never connects properly. I have customized the phone using some of the cool tools I found here, but I have never flashed any portion of the device - it's just the way I got it (WM6.5 CE OS 5.2.21849 Build 21849.5.0.63)
As suggested in various places on this forum, I have:
Soft Reset the phone numerous times
Rebooted the computer (WinXP) many times
Tried several different cables, including the HTC branded extUSB one
Tried different USB ports on my computer(s)
Tried other computers (WinXP)
Tried Windows 7 (WMDC) on another computer
Hard Reset the phone several times (with and without backup restore)
Uninstalled and re-installed ActiveSync 4.5 and the USB drivers
Adjusted various settings, including USB to PC, according to various posts
Cursed extensively in three languages
Regardless of any of this, every time I connect, I get the "USB Device Not Recognized" error within a few seconds.
I am now convinced the problem is hardware, probably the USB connector on the phone. I can't be without the phone until later this month, so I can't get the hardware fixed for a while. But I need to sync.
USB, of course isn't the only way to sync; the phone has Bluetooth. The problem is, I previously reset the device and un/re-installed ActiveSync, removing the pairing at both ends. To sync over Bluetooth, I have to first sync over USB, something I can't do.
MY QUESTION IS THIS:
Does anyone know a way to force ActiveSync to pair over Bluetooth WITHOUT first pairing over USB?
Any assistance anyone can offer will be greatly appreciated

if u go to settings>connections>usb to pc un check enable faster data sync
that might help

Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately, that's one of the first things I tried and it makes no difference (I just tried it again - no joy). I should have listed it in my original post.
The only thing I can think of is to somehow force the phone to sync via Bluetooth WITHOUT having previously synced via USB.
Anyone know if this is possible and, if so, how to do it?

I think you should go and replace your hardware if it has warranty (since you have not flash it). tell them my phone USB connection is not working at all, and let them try it on their computers to make sure, am sure the warranty covers this kind of things

Uh, you're talking about the error on your PC right? This is a common issue. (with pc's) Use another USB port on the computer. That is what I have had to do. It worked fine for both the TP2 and my Wizard before that, but ever since I reloaded the computer I get that error on certain USB ports. have not researched it too heavily yet, but I plan to.

Did you try installing the Windows Mobile Device Center?

Did either of you read the post? It clearly states that he has done BOTH OF YOUR SUGGESTIONS!
Unfortunately, it does sound like this is an issue with bad hardware in the phone. I would suggest getting it replaced under warranty.

I'm having the same problem (vzw TP2). I've already messed with all usb-to-pc settings, tried different USB ports (I've had other USB devices that req'd that), reset my PC (thank you dogbert), reset my device and am currently reinstalling ActiveSync; though I doubt that's the problem because my BT syncs work fine (I don't recall being req'd to do a USB sync intially before doing a BT sync, so I can't really help the OP with that). My device does charge via the USB cable when plugged into the PC. Disk drive mode doesn't work any more than activesync. I also haven't been able to spot it on device manager. Uninstalling it there was one of my first ideas.
I'm wary of using a BT sync to install the official VZW 6.5 ROM, because I've read bad things about ROM interruptions.
I have yet to find by searching anyone who had a real USB sync problem (i.e., one that doesn't get "fixed" by resetting or something equally simple) who has actually posted that they found a solution.
@OP, when do you get a message that you are req'd to sync by USB first? Does activesync tell you or your device?

I have this problem at work where the machine is managed. It just refuses to recognize the device. It's a security issue that we haven't been able to track down yet. I think if you look in one of the logs (forget which) you will see the actual error as it tries to load the driver.

just for the hell of it, try an older version of activesync. just tryin to throw in all possible fixes. http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...3a-28bf-4cac-a682-58d3233efb4c&DisplayLang=en
try removing the sdcard and syncing?

RE: A New Approach
Thanks for all your responses. Sorry to take so long to respond to your questions and suggestions, I've been away (funerals and CES).
I have read extensively on this subject, have tried EVERYTHING everyone has suggested, and reached the conclusion that this IS a hardware problem, probably involving the USB jack itself.
At least for a while, replacing the hardware is something I can't do.
I want a BT sync for syncing with Outlook (Calendar/Contacts) and for installing software. I currently have NO plans to flash the ROM, I agree that would be risky over BT.
The error appears to be generated by Windows, I don't think it ever gets as far as ActiveSync, ActiveSync always indicates that it is not connected.
Despite that, I did try an earlier version of ActiveSync (can't remember which one); no joy. I tried Windows Mobile Device Center on a Windows 7 machine, but the results were the same: Device Not Recognized.
SO, does anyone know how I can force a BT sync WITHOUT first syncing by USB? That would solve my immediate problem.

Unfortunately I been there and done that.
The only workaround is to use a free exchange server - www.alol.net.br
I put it on my computer's outlook. Copied all the contacts and calender items from my default folders. Synced with ALOL. Installed on my phone, and synced via my wifi.
Not the best solution, but T-Mobile refuse to fix the faulty Diamond motherboard, but it works fine.
The first sync on the phone comes up with a error message, but after that it is fine. You need to manually put in all the settings.

I'm assuming that you have your phone set to "Activesync" + Enable Faster data synchronization on your Phone, under Settings->Connections->USB to PC
Have you tried changing this to "Disk Drive"? Activesync can still connect to the phone and do syncs, etc.
Atleast this is my experience on XP. I've had the same problem on/off after flashing one particular custom ROM.. Don't remember seeing this on my stock Tilt2 ROM.

Have you tried turning your computer Windows' firewall competely off? I read soom were that there seems to be some confict with windows firewall reconizing Activesyc.

None of the settings in the phone, including Disk Drive, make any difference. I'm fairly certain that I've tried them all. None of the settings on the PC side, including Firewall, make any difference either.
The connection never gets to ActiveSync; the USB drivers fail to recognize the device well before that.
As I mentioned earlier, I have become convinced that this is a hardware problem with the phone, probably related to the USB connector. All my research leads there.
The approach I'd like to try is to bypass USB connectivity completely and attempt to sync over Bluetooth. The problem is that ActiveSync refuses to sync over Bluetooth until AFTER the first USB sync (and setup).
Thus my question:
Does anyone know a way to force a sync over Bluetooth WITHOUT first syncing over USB. Registry hack? Settings change? ANYTHING?

Quick note.
This issue started happening to me as well.
And here's the somewhat odd part. With the SD card removed the phone is discovered properly. The original SD card and another spare one inserted in the phone cause the this USB error for me.
Go figure.
(and yes I've tried formatting the sd cards, and factory resetting the phone)
Since I use ubuntu, I'm not really going to spend anymore time figuring out this windows bug. Just needed to apply an update..via windows.

Try this it worked for me

[Q] TP2 wont sync with WMDC on Windows 7

I really dont know why for the last two years Microsoft hasn't done anything for this very known issue. It seems they want all of us to use Microsoft My Phone service and put all out private data online.
The problem I am having is the following:
I am plugging my phone to the usb port using the original cable and if it detects the phone it will start syncing ...but this syncing will not actually start. The progress bar does not move.
Initially and for a couple of times after it synced fine. But then I got into this situation.
Of course like most of you know if I delete the partnership and make a new one it will work. But then what is the meaning of collecting data on TP2 when they will be deleted after making a new partnership....so there is no purpose of trying to sync if I have to make new partnerships once a while.
I have been trying aaaaalllllll the solutions mentioned in dozens of forums
ie:
unchecked faster data synchronization
checked if the right services are running
followed this procedure also [TUT] Dummies guide: updating HTC USB Sync Drivers
Checked my firewall settings, also disabled the firewall during sync.
disable third party firewalls and anti viruses
I have windows 7 ultimate 32bit, WMDC latest, and WM 6.5
I wish I could be proven wrong but I am sure that there is no solution to this problem. A 400euro operating system and a 500euro phone can not exchange information.

I have exactly the same problem (TP2 but running x64 windows 7). Did you manage to find any solution? Anybody?

Uncheck "Enable faster data synchronization."
It works just fine for me on W7 Pro x64.
If that still isn't working, consider switching to a different sync option, like BirdieSync and Thunderbird. That's what I use normally. The only caveat is that you need to set up a new partnership each time you flash, which is the same on WMDC anyway, so not really a big deal.

Sorry, I don't have a solution. I'm writing to say that I sync mine all the time with Win7 Pro x64, no problems at all.
I had a problem one time, and deleting the partnerships on the phone fixed it. Note that I do not sync emails or files; I don't use outlook for emails, only contacts and scheduling.
Have you tried doing a hard reset and then syncing the phone before you install anything else on the device?

I switched to 32 bit windows 7 and everything is ok now.
the only sync I can not do is through bluetooth.
the phone is freezing

Perhaps the device itself is failing, then. If you are only able to sync with bluetooth, then it would seem likely that you would have a faulty USB port on the phone. Have you tried doing this with the stock ROM?

Win 7 64 bit
HTC TP2
Windows Mobile Device Center (WMDC)
I was just about to ask a question about the same problem, but I see a thread is started already.
I just built a new machine, and when I first plugged the phone in, everything worked great. WMDC recognized the phone, loaded the drivers, and it sync'ed with Outlook 10. Everyone was happy.
The next day when I plugged my phone in, Windows Mobile Device Center does not even recognize that the phone is plugged in. WMDC shows not connected, I don't get the little "ding" when it connects/disconnects, and it doesn't show up as anything under "computer" when I click on the libraries folder.
The ONLY solution I have found is doing a soft reset on my phone. When I do that, it sync's. But as soon as I disconnect it and reconnect it, I get the problem as described above.
I haven't done ANYTHING to try to troubleshoot this problem other than uncheck that box on the phone that allows the phone to fast sync. Any advice appreciated.

Sorry, I don't have a solution. I'm writing to say that I sync mine all the time with Win7 Pro x64, no problems at all.
I had a problem one time, and deleting the partnerships on the phone fixed it. Note that I do not sync emails or files; I don't use outlook for emails, only contacts and scheduling.
Have you tried doing a hard reset and then syncing the phone before you install anything else on the device?

How do you delete the partnerships as you describe?

Yes I have tried that Im using Vista. Thing is the HTC do come up with progress bar on the phone. Way to weird and frustrating.

Now everthing is connected and its only when the tri colors on phone comes everthing disconnects then the HTC emblem is there showing progress as zero.

When I'm in the WMDC and setting up a partnership should I check any of the options.

Win 7 64 bit
HTC TP2
Windows Mobile Device Center (WMDC)
I was just about to ask a question about the same problem, but I see a thread is started already.
I just built a new machine, and when I first plugged the phone in, everything worked great. WMDC recognized the phone, loaded the drivers, and it sync'ed with Outlook 10. Everyone was happy.
The next day when I plugged my phone in, Windows Mobile Device Center does not even recognize that the phone is plugged in. WMDC shows not connected, I don't get the little "ding" when it connects/disconnects, and it doesn't show up as anything under "computer" when I click on the libraries folder.
The ONLY solution I have found is doing a soft reset on my phone. When I do that, it sync's. But as soon as I disconnect it and reconnect it, I get the problem as described above.

Like many others I have not been able to sync my HTC TP2 with my new Windows 7 64 bit computer.
I found a fix that worked for me. After many attempts to sync my phone and WMDC showing me it is connected, but at the same time show an error icon with no explanation, I thought I would do a manual Windows update to ensure I had all the drivers needed. After going to START> CONTROL PANEL> REVIEW YOUR COMPUTERS STATUS....I noticed I had an message that said there was an update for my Pocket PC. I downloaded it and it was an file called "drvupdate-amd64.exe".
I connected my phone by a usb cable to my laptop and selected RUN on the above file after downloading it to my desktop. It showed a status that was updating a generic driver and one other drive.......then WAMO, WMDC opened and my HTC TP2 showed it was connected and started to Sync. YEHAW!
