Copying files no work no more!

Howdy,
Did a search but didn't find topic?
First mistake, Dnloaded and installed latest AT&T 6 Rom to me Hermes!
Second mistake, have Vista Home Prem (ugh!) Build 6000, and
had Windows Mobile Device Center installed and worked on Win Mobile 5. Could copy and paste files to SD card!
Installed on the new Rom, now I tick WMDC > Connect > GO to SD card > to paste file / app etc and get billies
"The copy and paste has failed. The device has either stopped responding or has been disconnected!"
Even tho I can see files on SD card on laptop!
So I uninstall billies WMCD reboot laptop and reinstall WMCD and same error!
Now I can see the files on the SD Card, move the files around on the SD Card but no copy to SD card??????? I don't have a card reader as I used Win 5 and didn't need another reader!
Any suggestions, workarounds (besides getting rid of billies silly junk.)
Help please!

Hey thanks and fast reply,
I will try formatting sd card if I can find a way to back it up to something!
Does anyone know of a free online Back up site that I could back up sc card with Sktools bkup?
WOW have to much great stuff on it from xda forums!
I rally don't mean to add an off topic situation, but this also started when I installed the AT&T Rom. . .
The other problem that I just found out is that the sound is on, I can hear WM player out of device, but don't have sound for Skype with or w/o headset. As I can connect to call, hear the mic on called phone, the caller hears me but I don't hear the called sound on device or head set???? Im using fling and am connected with wifi, to Skype!
At least it's charging off usb sync, which is one thing that works!
If I can't discuss anothe problem with this New Rom here please move to right place and send a forward!
I really like this board, so I don't want to do anything wrong!
Thanks

Hey there,
I did a defrag SD card NO work!
Than I did a format
Connected (thats what it says but not what it does) and copy and past NO go. . . same error!
Tried to install Sk Tools, (from pc to device as before) and no go, same error of disconnected or what ever? And since I can't do a restore form pc to device, no copy, than None of my SD base apps work, Sk Tools, fling, etc!
So is the SD corrupt!
I vista corrupt (that's a dumb Q)?
Is WMCD corrupt that was working before my new Hard Drive replacement!
Or what?
Oh yea thank you for any replys!

I am also have the same problem.
Hello to all,
I am also have the same problem. Not with the sd card but with the build-in memory. I have installed the windows vista with WMDC 6.0.
I think this problem is with the OS or with the WMDC 6.0.
Because I have an another pc with windows xp installed and there is NO problem with it. Copy and past will work perfect.
I having HTC Wizard that is qtek 9100 with WM6, NBD 9.2 installed.
If any one find the solution please let me know also.
Also conection via bluetooth to WMDC 6.0 it also not possible trying to find the solution but no luck . It will work in fine with winxp but not with the vista.
Please help.........
Many Thanks

Madefree,
I would suggest a couple of things:
- flash a different rom to your device, eg a WM 6.0 from Schaps.
- review the MrVANX guides (www.mrvanx.org).
Let us know how you get on.

Thanks wacky banana,
Well at least I know its not the SD card as I tried another with the same irritating gates error message!
I uninstalled and reinstalled WMDC three times and still no file transfer> I have to do any transfers with a cardreader! So I don't know if I can do an upgrade on the ROM as I really want to (as ATT 6 was really a downgrade!)
Thanks. . . .
I went to that link and they are upgrading the site. The following is stated at the ever begining . . .
.....Now make sure your device is on and activesync (or for vista users the WMDC) is running on your PC, connect up your device and allow it to sync. When this is done run "RUUWrapper.exe":.....
RUUWrapper.exe wasn't a link to a download so I guess "searching" is on really first on the "how to" list!
Thanks for the links and the reply, greatly appreciate any and all help at this point!
Have a good one!

How to upgrade my Qtek 9100 (HTC Wizard)?
Hello,
Sorry I wrote wrong ROM version. It is NBD 9.2 installed, NOT NBD 9.3.
Thanks
Srikanth.k

Well DUH ATT 6 allowed me to copy to a file, but only to inside the SD card from the PC but not to the card directly (root) w/o a folder to put it in!
Active Sync works but not DUH WMDC (whatever) crashed twice in one day so Im stick with clicking on My PC > than on HTC device, than Active Sync works better than DUH other option billy made!
It's a vista thing all DUH way!
Hey wacky banana took you fine advice and downladed Schaps.WWM 6.1 Pro FULL ROM and with the excellent RRU packed with it got RID of ATT's "stuff"
Still can't transfer to root of SD, unless I do it thru a cardreader, but at least I don't have DUH branded bulk! Just need to delete (turn off duh startup sounds, so everyone around don't growl at me when I reboot!
Mighty fine ROM thx for the suggestion . . . . gotta do a donate!
Later!

Copy file worked!
Hello
The problem was with the K-a-s-p-e-r-s-k-y AV that I was been installed. It was blocking me to copy the files to my PDA. When I uninstalled the app it worked perfect without any errors.
Please anyone know which is the best antivirus.....
Thanks to all.......

Goin' nuts! Who can help me with this?

Hello all, best wishes for all of you.
I am new on this forum and read many stuff here allready. However i didn't find a real solution yet for my problem to get cab-files installed, f.e.:
I'd like to install Gyrator 2 on my HTC Touch HD (UK) (And other software)
When i try this i get this error:
"The file "gyrator" cannot be opened. Either it is not signed with a trusted certificate, or one of its components cannot be found. If the problem persists, try reinstalling or restoring the file".
The same message occures when i try to do this with other cab-files. GSen was going fine and even CabInstaller did. Net Compact Framework 3.5. installed and ROM version: 1.14.401.3
I copied the cab-files from PC to PPC by dragging it into the Storage Card.
I would really appreciate your help, because im goin' nuts!!!

Hello.
try this:
- make a soft reset and try again to install from the SD card
- make a soft reset, copy the .cab file with activesync to the phone memory (not on the SD card) and try again to install
when this also won´t work I´m afraid you will have to hard reset your phone..

i had same problem
why dont you just use Gsen, same thing, works great! its definately here

Didn't work either ... A hard reset? Uhm .... Don't like that, i hope and will wait first for a solution ...

As said it is not only Gyrator but it occures with more cab-files. The rotate is not my only goal, therefor i surely could use Gsen, but Gyrator 2 cn do much more. The same with other 3rd Party's ...

Use Advanced Configuration to make sure that your security warning is disabled.
What .cabs are you trying to install?

Problem SOLVED!!

Problem solved! The way i used CabInstaller was wrong. Instead of open the CaBinstaller first and then adding the cab-file and destination path, i double clicked on the cab-files first and then it won't work, because i gave CabInstaller permission to take over the control of installing cab-files
Thank you anyway for thinking with me ..

Great to hear you solved your problem!
<off-topic>Could you please change your subject in the initial post? subject is supposed to describe what the thread is about like "unable to install CAB files" or something like that...thanks<off-topic>

Outlook Sync Question

How do I force the sync so that it copies all the phone contacts to my PC Outlook and not the other way....
Cheers

I have this identic question?
Please help

hi
hmm not sure what u r asking,
When u connect mob to comp it syncs it by copying info on one device to other device that doesnt have it. If u got same item on both with different info it defaults to copying item from comp to one on the phone. U can change this in options after u connect mobile. Just stop syncing with stop button, then go in active sync to tool/options and u will find "if there is a confict bla bla select what to overwrite with what" just change it and u r done. Sadly u gotta do this again if u want it differently next time, ie from comp to mobile again.
If thats not what u asked, then u can always delete all contacts on either comp or mobile and it will copy the others...or make another account in outlook...
All the best

In simple terms, lets say that you have all your contacts on your phone and none in Outlook on your PC. Which would be copied? Would your contacts be copied to your PC or would they be deleted off your phone as they would be copied from your PC.
Can you force it to copy phone ---- PC or PC --- Phone

ahm
Well I answered all of that in my previous post...
They would be copied from where they r to where they arent.
It doesnt delete anything if there r not same contacts with same fields,
it just adds what isnt there both ways...which is why its called syncing...
If there is same value contact/field it will by default overwrite the one on the phone. I explained in the previous post how to change this, so it overwrites the one in outlook.
All the best

It didn't for me.... I wanted all my phone contacts on to Outlook (Which had none). I then clicked sync and Bingo I lost all my contacts.....
Good job I had backed them up...

right...
I always back up everything, and in many ways, so forget to tell ppl to do so, hoping everyone by now knows always to use backup with comps, mobs etc, luckily u do.
When i connect my device(xperia x1) to comp activsync starts, then it says "looking for changes" then a menu POPS UP asking weather i want to combine items or replace(seems to me this didnt happen for u just did it automatically).
Still the second thing i said will surely work for u.
To repeat, connect the phone, the second it starts syncing stop by clicking icon stop on main screen of activsync. Go to activsync menu, go to tools
then go to options, then settings, then under "if there is a conflict" change
"replace item on device" with "replace item on desktop"
BTW im on Windows xp, Activsync 4.5 build 5096, xperia x1.
If this dont work, i rly dunno anymore... make sure ur contacts r on device not sim card, maybe delete device in activsync then connect again etc, rly dunno, hope this one works, i touch type and doing this while pages load for me to download various add ons, but tried to help more then enuf...
again all the best,
Dane

[Q] how to install apps ?

hi i am new to the htc hd mini and i am finding very hard to find good info on what to do with it maybe its still new, but how do i install apps i have downloaded a few themes/apps and not having any joy of putting them on the the phone sure i have put them on the memory card but can't install them from there i have downloaded the activesync (running win xp) and that don't install apps. so i am stuck it was quicker and easy to jailbreak the ipod touch and put apps on there. where am i going wrong ?
many thanks a confused hd mini owner.
p.s
now i know there is no compass on it (one of the things i was looking forward to using)
also while looking on youtube there was a clip where someone is doing street view or somethink like and moving the phone about and the street image moved too, also i was told that using google maps with the layers i could find a shop with it..i think this must be for another phone.
apart from this its still a nice little phone would be much better if i could get some of the above working.

App extensions are CAB it's like seeing zip or rar file on PC.
to check the file extension in your PC go to Folder Option > View Tab > Remove tick from Hide Extension...
move cab files in your Storage card then in file explorer from your phone click on them and if prompt Microsoft security choose Yes and finally choose where to install applications.
in case your application is EXE: connect your phone to your PC via Active Sync and then run the file from PC... Follow the on screen instructions.

its not about phone...check your firewall settings(disable it while phone is connected to pc,this is what i do)..also make sure u have activesync installed

That's because you have extracted .cab file, before transfering it to device.

just like to say thanks i have at last installed some apps and i know how to work it now looking forward to some good apps now.

[Q] Connection to Mac (Windows before) ?

Hey guys,
im using my smartphone normally on windows 7 at home.
I need to plug it here at work into the mac to get some files copied.
I remember when doing this kinda stuff there are problems with
the SD-card which is a different partition system than the mac.
I had that with an usb stick i think.
Or can i just plug it into the mac and it will work ?
Dont wanna lose my data or get any problems!
thanks !

Anyone an idea ?
I still dont feel like i can try it.

its in my post of avobe... you don´t seen it?

The sd memory of the phone is fat32 and macs are able to read and write to fat32. Ive got a mac and use it with my phone very often.
When u connect it via usb, select disk storage on ur phone and it should seem like a usb stick on ur mac.
