[Q] DoubleTwist AirSync - Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Did anyone have any success connecting Desire HD with DoubleTwist AirSync. DHD seems to disconnect every few seconds, but it works well with other devices (Samsung etc.), the problem seems to be affecting only the new HTC models (HD and Z). Any tips?

It does the same for me, connects, disconnects, connects again and so forth.
When I first installed it I had no problems and it worked for the first few times but now it's just stuck in this loop of connecting and disconnecting

Exact same, only I'm trying to sync it on a nexus one, it has worked perfectly for me up until now.
Cyanongen 7
wifi calling

Works without the problem for me. Stock ROM.
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App

I had the same problem. Then I uninstalled doubletwist from the phone and reinstalled it and it worked.
Try this and if it doesn't work, try reinstalling everything, including the windows/mac application.
Please, post back your results. After a couple of problems (disconnect every few seconds at work, network error at home) I got it working 100% at work and at home.

I had some initial problems setting up AirSync on my DHD (Stock ROM) but after some fiddling it did successfully connect and sync my entirely library. Sorry, can't remember what I did.
Having applied a custom ROM i'm now unable to start DoubleTwist at all. hmmm. My call i guess, app support for custom ROMs is rare.

Active Sync Stopped Recognising - help!!!

Active sync get on my nerves!
I've had a partnershhip set up at work which was woking fine - it's how i transferred over my contacts from my wizard. Anyway, it's just stopped working and i cant figure it out! Please Help!!!
I was using 4.1 so upgraded to 4.5 to see if it made a difference - nope.
I unticked the 'usb to pc' box to disable enahnced connectivity - nope.
I've had the same problems at home using vista's Mobile Centre thingy.
Basically it looks like it's trying to connect but doesn't manage to. I can only think there's a setting on the device that has changed somehow.
Oh, and i've disabled the firewall to see if that would make any difference. The fact that it doesn't work at home either implies it's not that problem anyway.
Advice please!!!!!!
Try .. Start Activesyn on phone manually and push the sync button manually (when USB connected to the PC).

Hi. I had tried this. Ended up getting so frustrated that i deleted my partnerships from pc and phone so now don't even have this option on the orbit.
When i connect the usb the active syn green arrows turn and it does say connecting - but in AS 5 it comes up with the troubleshooter. In vista it doesn't do anything at all!!!
Very frustrated!
oh.. and the local area connection show connected...
OK... so reinstalled AS 4.1 and now when I connect it is stuck on 'Connecting' ... hasn't stopped 'Connecting' for about an hour now!
Now i've noticed that windows now thinks this is 'windows mobile device #8' coming in at 'Local area connection 10' ... not long ago i;m sure it was connection 4 and i certainly don't have 7 more devices!!
help!
I had a similar problem on my new Asus laptop and it turned out to be a nasty little proprietary program called net4switch that was gumming up the works. I turned it off and now all's well. It's a long shot that you have an Asus but, on the other hand, you might check to see if a network connection proggy is hindering your connection.

Nope, no ASUS laptop. Don't think i have any network apps installed - although i had though maybe the work network was holding me back!
But then again, it did work when i first had it - at work and at home! Now, all of a sudden it doesn't sync anywhere! Very very annoying!
I'm really hoping i can avoid a hard reset!!
When I run into this problem, I unplug the phone and then reboot the computer.
After the computer has finished rebooting 100%, then everything works fine again.
try updating active sync to Version 4.5 - that's the offical advice and it wored for me
OK.. I've upgraded my work computer to 4.5 ... no joy so back to 4.1.
Anyway, got VISTA at home so main issue is there.
Realised it's GOT TO BE the phone now though. Decided I'd try to plug in my Wizard and see if i get the same problems. I didn't, IT WORKS fine!
Orbit still doesn't.... HELP!!
ok.. reluctantly hit those hard reset keys and to my delight everything now works...
... i'm thinking MAYBE that i may have overclocked too much - only went as high as 260 once - so am going to hang back from battery status until i hear it's safe.
Thanks for all your help!
I have had this problem before, solved it mainly by following advice here, its now back again have...
- reinstalled activ sync several times
- hard reset twice
- boxes checked and unchecked all the same result
however i did use it yesterday in the car and probably, thinking back, start the engine with the with unit plugged in and charging.
i have also tried soft resets and different usb ports
not impressed
UPDATE
its now decided to work? oh well not sure what i did
Right, i've had the same problem. Fortunately i've got 2 Orbits at work to play about with, and after every possible combination going, i've found what the problem is........
Like previously posted, it is a hardware problem, however, in my case it was to do with the connection.
Quite simply all i did was insert the cable into the Orbit (not connecting). Then i would rest my hole punch on the connection next to the orbit - forcing the Orbit to lift upwards. And hey presto it works !
Hop this helps people

ActiveSync connection problem

I've searched all over and have tried several "solutions" to fixing my activesync problem but, none worked. For a few weeks after no problems whatsoever, activesync no longer recognized my phone (T-Mobile Touch Pro 2 stock WM 6.5 ROM). I've tried changing all the settings on my phone, ie: checking/unchecking the box to enable faster data synchronization, checking/unchecking the box for synchronize all PCs using this connection and made sure it was set to USB. I've uninstalled and reinstalled ActiveSync 4.5 on my PC. I've Hard Reset my phone several times. All that and still my phone is not recognized, it only charges (using my phone as a disk drive for file transfer does not work either). I've installed the activesync.sa.cab and ran it, still no luck. I've used SKTools to recreate activesync. All this and still no luck.
Is there anything else someone has tried and has had success with? I would like to have some end to this frustration.

I don't really believe the issue is with activesync itself, but to prove that you can establish an activesync connection over a bluetooth connection, and I have a feeling it will work fine that way. I've seen this problem come up a lot, and there's been several occasions where it was only cleared up by having the USB port on the phone replaced. The ports still seemed to be ok for charging, but the data pins weren't working as they should. I've seen that reported on the TP2 frequently enough to believe that there might be some design deficiency there.
About two months ago my TP2 began to fail connecting and sometimes would connect but not sync. When it did connect and sync it would be very slow doing it. I messed with it for about two hours and it began working again, although it wasn't clear what I did to fix it, and was fine for another month. At that time it started failing again only this time I couldn't revive it even after lengthy tech talks with HTC and VZW. Since the phone was only a few months old VZW replaced it and the new one works fine.

Hi I was having exactly the same problem and it was really starting to annoy me, anyways I'm on a stock t-mobile UK phone and an update called 1.110.84 came out which seemed to fix the problem completely. If your having this problem its probably your software build so even though I've never done it myself I would suggest flashing a new Rom or something, hope this helps.

[Q] Paired, not connecting automatically

I drive a ford escape and when I bought it, I set up my phone to connect to the cars bluetooth automatically when I get in.
Since the ics update a couple months ago, I have to manually connect it each time I get in now.
I've looked through all of the setting available, and can't seem to figure out what to do to get it to connect automatically.
My phone is setup as the primary phone, but unless I connect manually, my g/f's phone connects and hers is the secondary phone.
The cars bluetooth seems to be fine as her phone works every time and mine only started to have this issue after ICS.
Any tips?

Have you tried unpairing her phone and pairing only yours?
yeah, no difference.
It seems like ics just doesn't support auto-connecting, but that would be ridiculous....no?

[Q] XBMC / SPMC stutters with nearly every video

Hi,
I bought the AFTV in Germany and installing SPMC worked fine. I was using OpenELEC before, but running XBMC / SPMC on the FTV seems to be better as I don'T have to place the bis computer next to my TV.
The problem I have: Nearly every video stutters from time to time (somtimes, minutes in between, som stutter all the way), althoug the network is fast (connected via Ethernet to a Syno DS214+ - single user so no other access).
Most videos I tested were MPEG2-TS (named .ts) or H-264 (also named .ts). But I also had an AVI that had this problem.
Any hints what to change to get this solved?
THX,
Matthias
You could try this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/fire-tv/help/xbmc-video-stuttering-t2852227. Also search here for other threads.
I already tried the different combinations of HW-acceleration (libstagefright and mediacodec) but it did not help.
I also searched for other threads and did not find a matching one ...
Greetz,
Matthias
I believe I have a similar (or the same) problem... It seemed to work fine for a few months but lately stuttering started to occur on a daily basis
Mine was doing that too, fixed after a reboot, not sure what it was.

Hmpf! Yes, well, in Germany, there is a saying for that: Sometimes, you don't see the wood because of all the trees.
I restarted (first thing I tell everybody who has IT problems) and, surprise, surprise: problem's gone.
Thanks a lot!

I had stutters using WiFi, but since I cabled my connection I can run 1080 vids from my NAS and .ts files from my dreambox flawlessly. Have you tried a different port on your router?

I did not use WiFi-connection but cable from the beginning.
After a restart, it worked yesterday.
Restart help a bit, yes, but this is a sloppy and a temporary fix... Maybe a nice Task Manager app could help clear some junk?
Memory buffer issue

This seems to me to be clearly buffer bloat, certain routers and switches have an issue with the router equivalent of a memory leak. I reboot my router every day, and never have an issue. There are usually updates available, or if your router is the right type, alternate firmware that can solve it permanently. I prefer the once a day reboot.
