Good day fine sirs and ma'ams.
I would just like to say I love my Tilt 2, and have had it for a few months now with no real problems and this is about my 4th WM phone.
As of about a month ago, I have been unable to connect or sync the device to my PC.
I have WM Device center 6.1 (the latest from the website)
I am running windows 7
I had been able to sync the phone until about a month ago.
I have unchecked the box in the USB to PC for faster data synchronization.
Essentially, when I plug the phone into the computer, it just acts as if it is connected to a charger. Nothing comes up on the phone and nothing comes up on the computer. It just charges. I have even installed and uninstalled WMDC a couple of times.
I really am at my wits end here.
My question is, is there a fix for this apart from sending the phone in? I am able to flash the phone via the microsd card, and even tried going back to the e2 rom that is as close to the ATT rom as I could find.
I did find the stock rom, but it does not come with the image file, just the ruu.exe I believe. I cannot flash roms via the USB cable either, so I am only able to change things like I said, via the microsd card.
Any help is greatly appreciated! Thanks!
And yes, I have searched, and have found many other people posting in other threads saying they have the same problem, and everyone just says to uncheck that one box, which I have done, so that is NOT the problem.
Also, I would just like to add that when I go into the windows directory and attempt to run activesync (repllog.exe) I get the following message.
(cannot communicate with the pc because of the fllowing remote networking error (Error 608)
I have seen others ask help for this question without an answer on xda-dev also.
Thanks again! If anyone has the solution here I think a lot of people will be very happy!

turn off your firewall then pug ur device in and see if that works... works for me... perhaps your firewall started blocking it for some reason... other than that good luck
I had similar things happen to me in the past. While the phone is connected, check Windows Update whether there is a new version of Sync Center. This has fixed the problem for me.
i appreciate the suggestions.
However,
I have the firewall disabled and it still does not connect.
I uninstalled and reinstalled the WMDC using the latest software directly from the website. There appears to be no updates for the program once it is installed.
Any other suggestions?
Have you tried multiple USB cables, multiple USB ports, or even multiple computers? I've had USB cables which aren't capable of data transfer, as well as USB ports on the computer go bad. You might also considering a hard reset, to ensure no software on the phone could be causing the problem. If it's truly the USB port on the device that's broken, then you're in bad shape if you want to return it to AT&T for repair. You may be able to flash the AT&T stock ROM, but you won't be able to restore the AT&T stock SPL, which they check when fixing the device, so you may very well have to fork over some money to get it fixed. Best of luck
My phone is doing this also.
Multiple PC's, multiple USB ports, multiple cables. All of which worked perfectly beforehand...
The other thing to try is Internet Sharing - when I go in there and press 'connect', then it says Check USB cable connection, connect USB to any of my PC's/laptops and it doesn't register on the phone.
This phone is really a piece of ****. I could rant on for hours about the stupid problems there are with this handset, I'm sure I'm not alone. Perhaps I expected too much.
Anyway, if anyone has any info on how to make my USB connection work I'd love them forever...!

Could be a faulty device...my phone connects to every computer, every time. take the phone to your provider and show them whats happening.
Also, i've had issues with the standard mini USB ( http://www.meditronik.com.pl/doc/mini/usb-kabel-mini=foto=canon.jpg ) not properly connecting/loosing connection.
Try a HTC usb it might work better: http://bestcellbuy.com/bargainsea/Pictures/HTC/OEM_Home_Charger_USB_Cable/OEM_HTC_Data_Cable_07.jpg
I've tried the HTC USB lead that shipped with my phone to no avail.
I think the device is faulty (surprise surprise). It charges from USB perfectly fine, every time.
I'll post back once I find out what Telstra say... it's obviously still under warranty but that isn't really the issue - It is just such a major PITA having to switch to a loan phone and deleting confidential business data etc from my phone before sending away for repair etc etc...
Thanks for the help though, it is appreciated.
Well, I've got my USB going again. Not sure exactly what I've done, but basically I pulled the battery out for a few minutes and replaced it, turned on and off the 'high speed' checkbox in USB Connection Settings, and it has come good.
****box phone.
Somehow mine started working again last night too. Same cable, same port and everything.
Really odd, but I'm not complaining at the moment!
It seems this problem is spreading, as i'm being terrorized by this stupid bug... This afternoon I've tried to get internet on my laptop (by connecting my phone to it), but it was just charging my phone, so I thought the cable was broken. Next I tried it at home on my desktop computer, with another cable, and it did the same (several reboots have passed).
I don't know if someone already tried it, but when you enter the bootloader, it says "Serial". Normally when you connect the USB-cable it changes to "USB" (at least with my kaiser, universal and wizard). on my phone it didn't...... can anyone check this for me??
to enter bootloader: hold volume-down-button and pres soft-reset-button.
thanks in advance!

thanks for your help.
I've flashed my device with the newest official from HTC, and it still doesn't connect with the usb-data (i used the "flash-from-SD" -method).
The strange thing was that it happened suddenly... i never use a headset with cable, so its almost impossible the connector is broken. Any ideas people??
btw, the device isn't SPL flashed, so i can't use other roms beside the official roms...
Same thing happened to me. No USB sync, no USB connection at all; it only charges. Thankfully I had a chance to flash to a custom ROM before this happened.
The only way I can sync my data is to use a bluetooth USB in my PC. Works quite well with my contacts, calendar, & email, but I have yet to try to transfer any large files.
The bluetooth USB I went with was ASUS USB-BT21 USB 2.0 Mini Bluetooth Dongle. It is VERY low profile, too, but I would have liked for it to come with an end cap like those USB flash drives, otherwise I have yet to find any complaints about it. The price was great and so much cheaper than spending an additional $70-$100 to get my USB port on my device fixed.
Here's my saga: No Syncing, No USB Connection
Best of luck!

this happened to me before...when you connect your devivce to your laptop/comp, are you guys not getting the little pop up that says activesync & disc drive...??? if so jus make sure at least one of those are checked...sometimes both of the circles will be blank, thus the comp will simply charge it...
unplug the device for approx 10 sec then plug it in again, and the box should pop up again...
also...if you are tethered to your comp using the tp2's internet, your comp will not recognize your tp2's storage...

I did not know one could flash to new ROM by use of the SD card?
Mine is de-HSPL, so now I can not select another ROM anymore. (Got the 6.1 default one again)

I've never used the SD-Card method myself, but now will have to due to my USB port no longer working.
I've been syncing by using Bluetooth USB and just tried transferring files via Bluetooth and it worked like a charm! Smaller files were instantaneous and large files took longer (of course), but also worked fine.
I just tried copying over a RHODIMG.nbh file and that bugger worked (188MB)... Excellent!!!
I did buy a USB card reader to transfer files, just to be on the safe side, but I must say that this little Bluetooth USB that I picked up is working awesome.

i exactly have the same problem.I guess i need to send it back
I'm having trouble connecting to Zune. Got my HD7 a couple of weeks ago and it worked fine. Been waiting for GeoTrust to verify my identity so I can developer unlock the phone. Finally came through today.
But now whenever I plug the phone in Zune makes out like it's not connected. It doesn't even show up in device manager.
I've tried re-installing Zune, different USB ports different cables, different PC, hard resetting phone. 35 mins call to Microsoft support who ended up telling me to call T-Mobile... (don't think they would help too much with my O2 HTC HD7)
Anyone had similar problems?
I'm running Win7 x64 and latest version of Zune. It was connecting just the other day and I could run "Windows Phone Developer Registration" and it connected but complained registration was not yet complete (due to identity not being verified). Now it complains that phone is not connected.
Hope someone knows, it's been driving me crazy!
Starting to think it must be hardware. Just plugged phone into laptop that it has never been plugged into before. The phone played it's tune and started charging but not a peep out of the laptop. Same as the other two PC's nothing in Device Manager.
Think maybe the data part of the USB socket is broken, looks ok though...
Hi

Have you tried Wireless Sync?
Thanks for the replies.
As far as I could tell you needed to plug it in with a cable to setup wireless sync.
Took phone back to O2 shop yesterday and swapped it for a new one.
The new one works perfectly. Seems there really was a hardware issue.
Finally got a developer registered phone
So i recently bought a ps3 sixaxis controller from amazon ( apparently not sony oem, but it cost me like 40 bucks) and ive been trying to make it work with my GS2 for the past week with no luck... Ive downloaded the sixaxis program for my phone and the pairing tool for my PC .. Ive already made sure that the Bluetooth address matches the one from my phone with the pairing tool, and so then i start the sixaxis program on my phone, I click start (and power on my controller, all the lights are flashing) it says its trying to start the first connection but bluetooth connection failed .. so its attempting a second connection, and finally it says client connected :1, my controller though is still flashing all the lights and then it eventually stops and my screen reads client disconnected . What am i doing wrong ? ive tried the deodexed rom and seamster rom , nothing seems to pair it up, anyone else have this problem? Ive checked other posts but it seems to either be working or not working for some people .
Maybe it doesn't work because it's not sony oem?

A real one is only $40.
Yup, should of got a real one.. That works but i bet you bought those generic ones with extra buttons and turbo mode?? Those are dumb controllers..

no i bought one that looks exactly like the sixaxis, it even says sony and ps3 sixaxis on the box
im just gonna return it anyways and get a real one
Hi
I have a slight USB Tether Problem.. Well I have had this problem for a long time.. on many different version of ROMS.. but now am getting annoyed.. as Long as I had my WiFi Hotspot I was not really to bothered about USB Tethering.. but now my Wireless & Bluetooth have decided to die on me [AGAIN] so no more WiFi Hotspot..
Ok Firstly the Wireless & Bluetooth dying is not NEW to me.. although am not sure what causes it to die and then come back to life suddenly.. When I was in UK It decided to Die on me then when I came to India after a few months of staying in the grave it decided to somehow digg itself out... so I'm not going to even bother with that issue..
UNLESS SOMEONE KNOWS WHY IT HAPPENS AND KNOWS A SURE FIX FOR IT THEN I'D BE HAPPY TO HEAR IT OUT.

Anyways this topic is for my USB Tethering problem.. the problem is when I choose USB Tether.. it will do the connecting thing.. I mean on my Laptop I can see the adapter thing saying IDENTIFYING.. then as soon as it says ENABLED.. it will say DISABLED and the adapter will disappear.. I have to remove the USB cable then plug it back in.. exactly the same thing will happen.. after a few attempts IT WILL CONNECT.
I thought maybe something wrong with the wire.. so maybe that is why.. so just to test it out I downloaded PDANET and EASY TETHER (Desktop Client and the APP)
They instantly connect no problem at all ( tried it multiple times ).. how is it that these Apps are STABLE... but the USB Tethering on the Phone is so UNSTABLE -- I don't really want to pay $15 for something that i absolutely Do Not Need... since my phone supports USB Tethering so does my Network.. soo I don't see the point of buy these apps.. but it is annoying that i have to plug and replug multiple times to get the USB Tethering started.
Anybody have an Idea why it does that??
My Phone is a HTC Desire.
Currently I am running this ROM.. RUNNYCRUX RSK TEAM ★ with AMAZE CAM
Thanks for you help in advanced.. I hope your able to understand the problem If not do state your confusion I'll try to explain it better.
Well figured it out myself... I was messing around plugging unplugging and looking at the devices manager watching it show and then disappear.. then i noticed the name it says
HTC Remote NDIS based Device #2
hehe I kinda figured I knew what the problem was.. so thought of giving it a try.. since it says #2 it will mean I had a Ghost HTC Remote NDIS based Device, which was probably interfering.. so mm
START > RUN > cmd.exe
SET DEVMGR_SHOW_NONPRESENT_DEVICES=1
START DEVMGMT.MSC
Device Manager: View < Show Hidden

Looked I had
HTC Remote NDIS based Device
HTC Remote NDIS based Device #2
HTC Remote NDIS based Device #3
removed them all [Oh!! and Do not remove the driver when uninstalling or else you will be royally screwed ]
remove all the 7 My HTC things in Android USB Device thing as well.
plugged it back it installed the drivers now it's not troubling me it just starts pretty much instantly. YAY!!
Anyways... Still even though this problem is SOLVED.. if someone can solve my Wireless and Bluetooth out that would be awesome... those things are beyond my understanding.
Thanks alot, Rudurk.
Worked for me aswell.
I read a bunch posts on UBS issues but not that solved my problem.
Ok this seemed to start after I installed the ABLDroot tool by chainfire.... but sense then I have tried other roms, and other phones ATM I got a S3 and my S3 hooked into my computer... I going do my best make this easy for you and explain it right.
I have 2 usb ports on my computer which sucks (only having 2) its a labtop. Anyway I have 2 USB DLINK hubs.... one goes into computer and the other goes into the usb hub.. hub1----hub2----computer
hub 1 has nothing in it.....
hun 2 has my S3, S2 and the other hub pluged into it
my computer has 1 usb hub pluged into it and other port is used for my mouse (via a small hub) I do that because its usb mouse and it won't register right on the hubs.... anywaus
Easy problem could this be usb hub? Doesn't seem to be but I can't say I can tell for sure because I need stupid thing to use the phone unless I just except not being able use anything else USB (which arn't connected right now at wern't when the problem started)
This started when installed that ABD tool. Then my computer started saying wrong device error. So I went ahead and installed older drivers which fixed that problem. But the main problem is sometimes when I move stuff on my S3 like if I copy files and stuff I can see they moved on the phone but when I go to the computer and try to find my files there not there. Not moved. Or I see blank folders. Or worse even though I can use file commander still I am unable to see my phones on Cdrive. I see them in devices but not C drive.
sometimes problem goes away sometimes not. what is this ? the older drivers? the abd tool? I can't tell I tried to take one away at a time and while problem would go away often times it still happens once in awhile.... im going try some more tests with the usb plugged strait in but the problem stilll happens ..
Though its better if I don't use the hub thats not good enough for me I want problem gone
I use windows 7 any ideas thanks
only thing I dunno is could having a S2 conected mess with drivers maybe? doesn't seem so.
Any ideas? Different drivers or ... a program or... i dunno man shezzzz
Having the S2 connected shouldn't change anything. Your laptop should see both.
My guess is your USB hub but could also be from the older drivers.
This is a problem specific to your pc (either hardware or software), it's really hard to know exactly what's wrong without being there to test it.
