Same for me. I had a load of problems getting the Mobile Device Center working with my HTC TyTN. First I was unable to even install the driver when I first connected my device. The "add new hardware" wizard always tried to connect to Windows Update and install an updated driver which then failed. The solution was to let it fail and manually install an older driver from the list using the icon in Device Manager. After that I could start Windows Update and download the latest update.

Then I had the same problems as you describe. When I started WMDC it just hung while displaying "Connecting". Looking in the task manager I noticed that the wmdc.exe process was consuming more and more memory, up until something like 250 MB, after which WMDC just showed "Error". Finally I got it to work. It is hard to pinpoint exactly what I did to fix it. I know that the "advanced network features" under USB in connection settings on the TyTN need to be ticked and the device showing as a Windows Mobile Device instead of HTC USB Sync.

Initially I did a hard reset of the TyTN. Further, I manually unistalled and reinstalled the driver in Device Manager a couple of times. I tried to reboot both the computer and the TyTN several times. Also, I did restart the "Windows Mobile-based device connectivity" service after plugging in the cable. Finally it just recognized my device and I could setup the partnership. Now I can sync over bluetooth too and skip the cable.

HTC phone support was not very helpful with this problem. "We will call you back". Yeah right.

Mobile cofiguration:

Dopod 838 Pro

LVSW 4/17/07 WM6

Hard SPL

PC configuration:

Windows Vista Business Edition

I encountered the same problem. Currently able to sync back by hard resetting my device. The USB to PC connection on settings does not appear to affect the sync problem.

I suspect that the problem arise when I originally sync with an XP machine.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] antjmon:
What worked for me was to enable the advanced usb setting on the phone as mentioned...then while the phone is still plugged in, I removed everything associated with the phone from device manager on the pc. Once that was done, I unplugged the cable, waited a few seconds, and plugged it back in (with the advanced usb settings still checked.) Worked like a charm with WMDC.

I had problems with all sorts of "connectivity" in Vista, including connecting up my Trinity, and setting up my xbox 360 as a media extender.

I recently bought yureka and had a proximity sensor problem. It was always showing as distance zero.

Even when i made call screen immediately turned dark even while i was holding it into my hand.

Turns out its a loose screw. I tightened the screw which is behind the proximity sensor and it fixed my problem.

Before you do that you can test if this will work for you.

You can hold the are near your proximity sensor ( don't cover the sensor) and make a call. Make a call now. If the screen doesn't turns off automatically then loose screw is the problem with your device as well.

Hope this helped you as i saw too many posts with this problem.

Alternate solution

you can fold a small piece of paper(i am using spare sim card) and fold it few times and put it right between the back cover and proximity sensor.

whichever solution you use make sure to call the yureka customer care and report this problem and also get it fixed. as this might be temporary solution (or permanent, we will find out ) and the problem might come back.

report the problem and get the engineer to fix it. brand new phone should not have such problem.

My phone has same issue please review this !

after dialing a phone number and pressing the call button display goes to sleep preventing me from hanging up the call or activating loud speaker..ehh frankly i can't see anything until the other party if attended my call hangs up !

I tried to press the proximity sensor area with my hands sometimes this works and screen turns on. I have tried tightening the screw as above mentioned but it did not resolved the problem entirely but now i had to apply less force to the proximity sensor area to turn the screen back on.

PS: Pressing the power key during call does't work the screen blinks and stays in sleep mode . i've been using this brand new phone for only two days please tell me what to do.

Try alternate solution.

I don't face any of these bugs. All apps works fine even over wifi. Device heats only during heavy tasks and it cools immediately as well.

I am able to set ringtone for second sim.

There is copy and cut function in cm file manager app. Its sort of difficult to access. First time i used cm file manger i thought same thing.

Can access sim contacts.

Only problem i faced was proximity sensor and i fixed that myself

Want some real advice!!!

i received my yureka yesterday and since then the proximity sensor is not working properly.

the screen goes black and all.

i've tried tightening up screws.

i also called up on yu custormer care, they suggested me to wait for an OTA update. they are saying that it'll fix that issue or in a month they will start their phone replacement service.

so right now they will not replace.

so my question is: whether i should wait for an OTA update or i should wait for their phone replacement service to start or i should just return my phone back to amazon.

[YU Yureka Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ==vj==:
I didn't had this problem until kitkat. But after updating to CM12S this problem knocked my door and seriously screwed me up. I checked mildy patting the proximity area with my finger and i could sense a feeling of looseness. I then remembered your thread and straightway place a dummy sim card behind the proximity. And viola that solved the issue.

So this could mean the tiny + screws are not so durable. Also as this phone is larger and a bit tighter in jeans could be a cause for the screws to loosen. That's bad. But glad there is solution.

Thanks again..!

Resolved: Blank or Black Call Screen in Yureka Cyanogen - Proximity Sensor Problem

List of major defects or bugs:

If you are facing blank screen on calling a number on Cyanogen Mod 12 or 11 os then dial the code *#*#7769#*#* ; you will see a proximity calibration screen, press start and wait untill the values are populated, press exit. Try calling a number again, your problem should be resolved by now.

List of unresolved bugs:

1. Contacts List does not give an option to display contacts ONLY FROM PHONE memory. It displays all phone memory contacts PLUS useless contacts from gmail account and other accounts etc etc making it difficult to navigate to desired name and number to call a person. Please note CM11 had an option to display contacts ONLY from phone but this option is missing in CM12.

2. There is no option to Display Sim contacts in contact list. This option was neither available in CM11 nor its available in CM12. This option is available in stock android lollipop.

3. The 12 hour time format doesn't display AM or PM beside the time in status bar nor in the clock widget.

Major bug in CM11 as well as CM12.

PLEASE RECTIFY AS WE ARE NOT USED TO 24 HOUR TIME FORMAT.

4. There is no way I can set the default WRITE DISK TO EXTERNAL STORAGE LIKE SD CARD. THIS OPTION WAS neither AVAILABLE IN CM11 NOR IN CM12. STOCK ANDROID HAS THIS OPTION.
