Issue: Xda Live And Usb Drivers

just updated and this is a HUGE speed boost on my 8525. A few questions though, does anyone know where i can get the video call cab or the name of it in the ext_rom to see if i have it saved on my pc, also i updated and as soon as i plugged my usb cable in it tried to install some RSID(cant remember exactly what it was) drivers and i read a solution to take out the entries in the registry on my pc but now it tries to install windows mobile drivers and once it finishes i get the yellow exclamation mark and a failed to install message so now im unable to sync and my 8525 doest detect it like it did before. does anyone have a fix for this? also im running the latest ActiveSync 4.5
EDIT: I read on here that someone had this issue and it was fixed via the 5-in-1 addons is this true? is there another way to get mine working, anyone have a link to the htc usb drivers?

To sync correctly you need to do the following:
(on your device) Goto start>settings>connections>USB to PC and untick "Enable advanced network functionality". This should allow the device to talk to activesync.
(on your pc) Go into activesync (without the device connected) and goto File>Connection Settings, in the drop-down menu titled "This computer is connected to:" select "The Internet".
Hope this works ok. The video call option is enabled using the files in this post.

wow man thanks your a life saver it worked like a charm.

[Q] Problem with selection USB-PC activesync or disk-drive

Hi,
when I connect it to the PC me appears the window of "chosen connect" but any options use, start always the option selectionated in preselesction SETTING-> USB to PC also if I check option " you ask type of logon when me connection"
sorry for my english
tahnk you

Are you trying to say that your phone always connects to your computer as a USB device even if you select something different?

Sounds like it.
I've got a similar issue, my screen is dead so I can't select anything and it comes up as a disk drive. Kinda need to get it to active sync so I can back the phone up to restore to my new one.
Without being able to see or use the screen I can't, unless there is a keyboard method to choose activesync.

when I connect htc (with USB) to PC, appears this option selection:
(whatch the image to the link)
farm3.static.flickr.com/2007/4514994648_92afa7bd15.jpg
now, if I select the option disk-drive,
don't start option disk-drive but activesync because is preselect in menu "SETTING-> USB to PC"
(whatch the image to the link)
farm5.static.flickr.com/4060/4496803689_c5ace06880.jpg
the same think if I select the option activesync but the preselect in menu "SETTING-> USB to PC" is diskdrive, start option activesync...

This is not the correct behavior.
So it seems like it works properly if you have the preselection set as "diskdrive" One option could be to just leave it set there.
A common problem though, and is probably what is giving you trouble, is the checkbox "enable faster data syncronization". Frequently, this just doesn't work out (not sure why) and the computer can not establish an active sync connection. The ppc or activesync self corrects by defaulting to a diskdrive connection.
uncheck the "enable faste data syncronization" box in settings, restart your phone and pc (verify the box is still unchecked after restart) and try the active sync again. Let us know how it goes... good luck.

Tried with the faster data box and without, mine starts active sync...which I want and need, it lasts for about one minute, then it disconnects and can no longer recognize the device unless I shut down the computer and do it again....but it just repeats this same things every time.

I tried to make a cab from those reg entries but couldn't make it install successfully...
There might be typo ("Advance" instead of "Advanced" ?) or is the cab I made not good for my machine (TP2) ?
Could anyone make OR help me make a working cab installer (without confirmation please, my "touch" screen is broken and I need it to put the original rom back before sending my TP2 back) ?
Thanks a lot

[Q] Milestone USB tether in DEFY

Hi,
I'd like to use my phone as modem. Currently I have S.FROYO II ED with Milestone usb tether. Does anybody know how should I use it?
1. What kind of USB connecion should I choose from the list when I connect to PC(Motorola portal, Windows Sync, USB Mass Storage, None).
2. Does it matter if I check settings->wireless & networking -> mobile networks -> internet thetering?
3. Should I have USB debugging checked?
Thaks,
FR

Hello
I have stock froyo and I made USB tethering working with win xp as follows
1. On Defy: I enabled settings->wireless & networking -> mobile networks -> internet tetering
2. connect defy to pc. On connections i see a "local area connection" with device "Motorola USB driver". In USB settings I selected Motorola Phone portal (I do not know if it makes a difference)
Honestly at this step I expected the USB tether to work but no such luck, so I proceeded to step 3 below
3.On PC (win xp): I created basically a new dial up connection
Start
- settings
- connections
- create new connexion
- connect to internet
- set up connection manually
- connect using a dial-up modem (here I select motorola dial up modem)
- isp name (I put Motorola)
- phone number is *99#
- User name: APN user name (as you have it defined on your phone APN).
- Password: APN password (as you have it defined on your phone APN)
Now USB tethering works. I connect the defy, I start the dial-up and no problem
I hope this helps

[Q] Help!! Defy CM7 USB Tether ~

Hi there, I am using CM7 RC1v2 on my motorola defy. I am facing a problem which whenever i connect my phone to windows using phone portal the usb tether cnt be checked. But when i connect using "charge only" the things become available again but i still could not connect. Anybody face this problem and can help me to solve it? Thx very much!

Phone portal run on specific IP number and it uses different port and this explain why USB tether won't run.
I'm using it and here's my steps.
AFAIK, the pc required the USB tether driver for it to run properly. It should automatic install of the required driver. Once the driver is installed, you could perform a few steps here. I'm using Windows 7
1) Goto Control Panel - Network and Sharing Center - Change Adaptor settings.
2) Disable any active Local Area Connection if there are any of them running
3) Enable the one USB tether(it might already enabled by default but you could double check it).
4) It will auto verifying and connect once it done verified.
5) Start your internet browser and enjoy(you may need to do: Internet Option - Connections - Lan Settings - Unchecked proxy server .

Samsung Focus S - USB Tethering: Confirmed Working

Anyone get this working, the old method doesn't work. The computer found the phone and installed the modem. Does the Samsung Focus S have different connection strings?
In the diagnostic screen there are more options than the Samsung Focus:
Zune Sync
Modem, Tethered Call
Modem, USB Diag.
Zune Sync, Modem.
Modem_QC, USB Diag.

internet sharing was loaded by default on my system settings.
Turning it on will trigger AT&T to enable the Tethering Plan. When I turned it on few months back on my Focus AT&T sent me a card within a few days stating they would turn on tethering automatically unless I called to tell them no. I used the USB tethering prior for 6 months with no word from AT&T until the I turned on internet sharing.

That will not prevent it at all. Without that you won't be able to turn it on, but once you do turn it on AT&T will message you saying if you continue you'll automatically be enrolled in a tehering plan.

The exact thing happened to me. I've USB tethered my phone since January no problem and a week or two after trying internet sharing I got the message from AT&T. I figured the internet sharing triggered that but in fear of loosing my unlimited data plan I haven't tethered using either method since. Have you used USB tethering since getting the message with no problem?

Yes, few months with no issues. I called AT&T yesterday and asked if any more "tethering" triggers came through and they confirmed no. I am 100% positive the internet sharing in system settings triggers the plan if you don't pay for one.
The USB method that original worked for the Samsung Focus doesn't work on Samsung Focus S. I have tried on 3 different computers that worked previously; I can easily connect my Samsung Focus but receive dial-up error 628 or error 619 on the Focus S, the strings have be different. The main reason I upgraded was the 4G speeds which are amazing on this phone.
I have uninstalled all the drivers, deleted the modem and reinstalled with no problems. I just can not get past the error. We need to get us new Samsung Focus S owners our modem back

Awesome! I'm tethered now and I'm trusting you that this is safe!
I didn't need to delete my old modem or uninstall any drivers. I plugged my phone in and it didn't even install new drivers but this worked right away.

I think I changed too many settings in my modem which caused me to uninstall everything. Hopefully the quick route will work for most people! I am glad you got it working! I have never had AT&T notify me this way, only using the Mango tethering option.
Hopefully we can add this to a sticky and under the Samsung Focus S section when it is up and running.

Good job. The Samsung Focus S forum needs to go up soon!

Hello is there any way to make usbthetering on Omnia7 available? wolud be very nice

Have you tried following the same steps used for the Focus / Focus S?
Alternatively, have you tried a search?
USB tethering for all gen1 devices, even things like the DVP which otherwise have very little homebrew, has been known for many months. I don't recall if you had to tweak it slightly for the Omnia7 or not, but I don't think so.

worked for me, I have a focus flash!!!!!! Adding the code in the advanced properties worked and the connection was no longer refused and connected right away

Hmm, I seem to have a problem. I get the phone set to "Modem, Tethered Call" no problem, but when I plug the phone into the computer the install new hardware wizard fails with the message that it "can't find the necessary software."
Any ideas?

That did the trick. Using my phone as a modem right now... thanks!

Are the instructions in this forum so that I can use my 3G connection on my Samsung Focus S by my laptop that doesn't have Internet?
Or is it the other way around so that I can use my laptop's Internet connection so that my phone will be able to have Internet as well - just by connecting to the USB port?
I'm assuming it's for the former but I'd also like it if someone could point me to the latter.

It's for the former. For the latter, that's built-in; just connect the phone to the computer by USB and start the Zune software. It will create an Ethernet connection over USB for the phone to use, off of the PC's Internet connection. You could also use Internet Connection Sharing from the PC over WiFi, and connect the phone to that (it may help to use software that causes the PC's WiFi to appear as an access point; I'm not sure if the phone supports Ad-Hoc networks).

Awesome! I didn't know that Ethernet connection over USB was able just by having Zune and the Windows Phone. Tried it and it works great!
Would that only work with Windows Phone or any other phones/devices I use while Zune is running?
