Nothing has ever foxed me so much for so long on a PC!

Nothing I try resolves this problem. And I now believe I have tried everything, including:

reinstalling vista on a new partition,

trying to install without additional drivers,

with additional drivers,

3 different cables,

virus scanners off, f

irewalls off,

3 other devices connect/sync ok,

uninstalling and reinstalling wmdc and driver update - reboots in between,

port opening,

driver forcing,

new bios - old bios.

Advanced USB connectivity on/off

Amonst other stuff! And still the problem is the same:

I plug in the phone - and the device listed in device manager under poertable devices (Windows Mobile device) appears until just after the 'set up your device' box appears in WMDC then dissapears. WMDC then reports 'not connected'

The driver which dissapears reports this to ms:

SOLVED

FFS I hope this helps someone and am fairy sure it will.

The problem is MS's answer to the problems that ppl were having syncing from wmplayer and their storage cards (I guess)

Basically, everytime the device is connected a few processes connected with windows media player start and if not manually ended will terminate the connection.

To be able to terminate these processes I had to put my laptop into power saving mode to lower the cpu speed and gain enough time to hit the 'end process' button a few times.

When you finally manage to stop each wmplayer connected service (i used task manager sorted alphabetically to see them) the device will install and WM

DC will finally sync.

Things to note:

WMDC and WMDC drive update were uninstalled - pc was rebooted.

advanced usb connectivity was turned off on device

existing partnerships had been deleted in activesync on device

*autoplay options set to 'do nothing' in Vista control panel*

Although this problem did not appear on 3 of my old devices, it is not a specific Artemis problem as I have read MANY reports of the same behaviour.

WMplayer will have to be manually killed on each connection or the device will disconnect - any ideas how to stop WMDC from launching on pluggin in device are welcome.

I lost a weekend to this.

SAme problem...really pi$$ing me off...though the above did not work for me..so gna rebuild my PC!
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] debully:
pi$$ed me off so much that I ebayed my Orbit and got a m700. No problems with this baby, running mUn's WM6 and its fast as a fast thing.

I noticed I had no problems syncing with the SD card taken out.

I also remember that I had stuck all my mp3's on the sd card via WM11 and the card reader on my lappy - this might be what causes a conflict. Just a hunch.

Hope you get it sorted soon - sadly it took me ages to find out just the cause of the problem and reformatting pc / hard resetting artemis did jack ****. I'm certain that wm11 had issues with my SD. Dont lose too much time on it - its far quicker to order another phone, and providing you have less than 7 months left on your contract, you could probably make a bit of cash - lifes too short to sit there working out other ppl's mistakes! Never again.

Good luck - and see you in the trinity forum soon!

[P3300, MDA Compact III General] samXDAII:
lol..

Well...little over an hour later all back up and running..and i have also put my backed up data back in..Orbit is also now working.... ;)
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] Neozzz:
Hey Sam and debully, I have exactly the same problem. Things I tried to fix the issue:

- changed usb cable, switched between different USB slots

- soft-reset, hard-reset phone no luck

- went from XP to Vista but same problem

- uninstalled all USB Drivers, rebooted, plugged in my HTC P3300, but no success.

- Tried on 3 pc's, but every pc say's USB-device unrecognized :(

If you read above you probably think it's broken, but the phone synced flawlessy for 3 months untill now

Vista does recognize the phone, and it installs 'Windows Mobile Remote Adapter', but then just nothing happens. WMDC can' t connect. So like you said debully, I launched Taskmanager before installing Windows Remote Adapter. After the installation of the adapter a Windows Mediaplayer proccess starts for just 1 second, and then it's gone. You think this is the problem? In your case tthere were more WM proccesses he? If it is, is there a program which slows down the CPU of a desktop, so I can terminate it?

Don't feel like sending it to a factory, I still have little hope I can fix this.

Thnx for reading, srry for bad english

Greetz

p.s: Sam, how did you fix it?
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] debully:
try connecting on a freshly rebooted computer with NO SD card in the device.

I think Microsoft has ruined the driver / WM support in the latest release of WMDC 6 as it worked fine in beta3.

Just glad that a few others have got this problem as I thought I was going mad!
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] Neozzz:
We're finally getting somewhere, such a simple thing to try, but I never realised it could be that simple. Though the problem still remains :(. This is what I did:

- Turned phone off, pulled out SD card, booted again

- Turned " advanced USB connection" off

- Rebooted PC

- Connected the PDA

And the installation process never went so fast and fluently, it immediatly started installing the drivers

(really thought it was gonna work this time). Only this time it didn't install " Windows Mobile Remote Adapter" but this time it installed "Smart Phone USB Sync" ( see attachment ). But it won't launch WMDC and when I manually launch it he still can't see the phone. Dammn this is difficult...

Thnx for all the help already
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] debully:
Slow your PC down somehow - maybe encode a video or put it into power saving mode if its a laptop - just make sure everything is on the go slow:

Then open task manager, goto 'Processes' tab - click where it says 'Image Name' so that names are sorted alphabetically (reverse order). Plug in phone - when wmplayer starts, highlight it and click end process and yes.

Leave it alone for about 3 minuites (a process started for me and downloaded the correct driver but gave no outward indication)

Your phone will now sync.

PROBLEM SOLVED!

Finally my problem is solved!! Thnx for all your help debully. This is what I did to solve it:

1. I installed Windows Vista Ultimate 64 bit, I used to have the 32 bit version on my AMD 64bit proccessor :o

2. So my whole pc was fresh again, I configured my wireless lan pci card. And launched 3 times Windows Update to make sure I had all the newest drivers.

3. Then I downloaded WMDC (64 bit version!), after I installed I checked Windows Update to see if there were any WMDC updates. But he didn't find any.

4. I hard-resetted the phone, and turned "advanced USB connection" off.

5. Then I pulled my storage card + sim out off the phone.

6. Now I finally connected the phone, and strangely enough Vista was installing something like "USB Serial for Artemis" :confused: , was too late to make a printscreen. After that it installed "Smartphone USB sync" and also "Windows Mobile Based Device".

7. Then the EULA Agreement of WMDC popped up :D . Jeez what a relief! It finally worked

I think the 64 bit version did the trick for me, maybe this 64 bit version of WMDC is more stable and less buggy than the 32 bit one. I don't know but it did the trick for me.

Now I use my old Motorola V3 as phone, and I won't use my HTC P3300 until HTC releases Windows Mobile 6 ;) . I'm too scared to **** things up again haha, hopefully Windows Mobile 6 will make an end to all of these syncing problems!

Thnx for reading, hopefully I can help someone with this!

[P3300, MDA Compact III General] Neozzz:
Problem returned, after syncing 2 or 3 times :( . So I started to encode a AVI to MP4 video, then launched Task Manager. And I plugged in my device, and now I could stop the WM proccess! So you were right, thx a lot mate! It's syncing again!
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] debully:
Glad to help dude.
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] banzai129:
Solved the issue by renaming wmplayer.exe

I was driving nuts for a week with this sync problems.

As described by many, WMDC start connecting then dropped everything.

Device manager shows a correct Microsoft Windows Mobile Remote Adapter but Mobile Device/pocketPC was just appearing then vanished.

I choose a more brutal solution to get over this :

cd "\program files\windows media player"

takeown /f wmplayer.exe

cacls wmplayer.exe /E /G administrators:F

attrib -r -s -h wmplayer.exe

ren wmplayer.exe wmplayer2.exe

After that, WMDC behaves correctly.

Best regards.
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] debully:
good skills that man!

I've chopped in the 6month old Orbit on ebay for £270!

Ended up making £50 and got myself a Trinity - now happily running super fast mUn WM6 and not missing the artemis at all. Only thing slightly worse is GPS fix times - but I can drive round aimlessly for 3 minutes, not a problem.

Glad someone with a bit more knowledge has worked out a solution - does this mean that WMDC 6.1 did not address this issue? I badgered MS loads about this on their official forums.
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] banzai129:
WMDC 6.1 does not correct the issue

As stated in the title, WMDC 6.1 release does not correct at all the issue.

Best regards.
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] debully:
as stated where? snotty git!

specifically yesterdays update does not fix?

Wouldnt surprise me if it didnt.
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] debully:
@pvdhelm

I'm sure this fixes boot loader issues with vista etc.

does it cure the WMplayer problem or have you posted the duff solution in this thread? Did you read the thread or just the title of it?
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] pvdhelm:
@debully

i read your 1st post.

i had a lot of problems connecting to vista's wmdc. After i installed new drivers and a new version of wmdc all my problems were gone.
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] indiekiduk:
Tried those drivers still no luck. My excalibur shows up in device manager and I see the network connection but WMDC just doesn't do anything at all.

If i untick use enhanced network functionality on the phone and hence it switches back to serial mode I can sync, but I really need the enhanced stuff so I can use some IP based apps which require the phones IP address. e.g you can ping your phone at 169.254.2.2 when enhanced is on, but you can't when its off.
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] epmulligan:
I am experiencing this issue which appears to be the same:

Connect Artemis to Vista Latop, IP address is assigned, but WMDC or Sync Centre never connect to device.

I never had this problem till last week when LiveOne care updated itself. Since then I have to turn off firewall to sync ... and it worked everytime.

I then changed my firewall setting in LiveOne care from Restricted to Automatic and Sync centre / WMDC continue to work...don't know if this helps..if not delete post !!

[P3300, MDA Compact III General] MstaCDLite:
I was hoping this would work seeing I've tried almost everything I could find. Still has not worked for me at all. My device sync'ed once with WMDC, and never since then. Tried the new drivers and still nothing...
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] sWuRv:
Yeah I got the same problem, I am using a tytnII. I have grown accustomed to opening the task manager and ending the windows media service. It only shows up for a split second, so you kinda have to figure out which keystrokes to use and memorize them so you can perform it quickly. Here's what I do:

1.) Make sure advanced network functionality is off in start->settings->connections->USB to PC

2.) Open WMDC

3.) Open windows task manager

-OPTIONAL- If this is your first time doing this, or if you lack lightning quick finger reflexes like me, you might wanna encode a video or do some other processor-intensive task to slow down the process of WMP conveniently ****ing your WMDC connection

4.) In the task manager, click image name to sort the processes in reverse-alphabetic order (Z-A)

5.) Plug in your device, wait for about ten seconds, and watch for wmplayer.exe to show up momentarily in the list. Take note of where it shows up alphabetically in the list.

6.) Since I now know that wmplayer.exe is going to show up right below the "wuauclt.exe" service on my computer, I click on that process to highlight it.

7.) Disconnect and reconnect the device.

8.) As soon as you see the wmplayer.exe process appear, quickly press down, delete, enter. This should select the service, end the process and confirm your choice to do so all in one swift motion.

9.) WMDC should connect and sync normally. If it disconnects again, just try to be quicker or run something intense as previously stated to slow down the process.

I know these instructions have been posted before, but I thought I would try to make it sort of idiot-proof, for lack of a better word. Hope I helped someone. Cheers!:D
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] aximilation:
Man that was ticking me off, for me wmplayer.exe kept popping up even when not connected, piece o'....

I created a batch file to kill the process and kept it next to my task manager, sorted by name, every time the process popped up I opened the batch file. Contents:

TASKKILL /f /IM wmplayer.exe

Paste that into notepad, File>Save As

***Save as type: all files ** important

Save as kill.bat (anything ending in .bat)

Put in easy place to click

Open Task manager, sort processes by image name descending (W near top)

Run batch file every time wmplayer.exe pops up.

Connect Device

Hopefully the device center will pop up, it took almost a minute for mine to show up.

Good luck!

-- I updoaded a copy of this file as kill.bat.txt, if you know, how, download this file, remove the .txt extension and it should work for you.

Enjoy!
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Khalil_y:
First thing you need to know is that I've never owned an Apple device. I've been having this issue ever since Apple upgraded to iOS 6 & 7. My girlfriend and some of my friends are iPhone users, and sometimes they send me messages but I receive them late or even never receive them at all. Sometimes I get their text that got mixed with a text that they sent sometime before (even from convos that are days or weeks old) in the SAME message (WTF?). I event get spammed by the same message 5+ times, example http://i.imgur.com/ij8GtPu.jpg which is annoying and ridiculous!

Ive searched the web and did not find a single solution, only thousands of people complaining with no fix. The only solution to this is to use another chat app with the other person, which is really hard to convince someone to do that. Especially Apple fanboys and fangirls like my GF. I suggested Whatsapp or Hangouts and even suggested her to disable iMessage (there's a feature that lets you disable the iMessage feature so the iMessage app only sends SMS to the users) which my GF denied also. -_-

TLDR: I don't get texts and people wait for me to respond and think that I'm ignoring them or I get spammed. How to fix pls?

Edit #1: I've never been an Apple user so "disconnecting" my number from iMessage by sending a "STOP" text to 48369 probably wont help. BUT I did try it today and we'll see if that works lol...

Edit #2: Oh the irony... http://i.imgur.com/7gmUN54.png

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] Zylograth:
Before the 5.0 update I would have a strong LTE connection almost everywhere I was, specifically at home and work where I spend most of my time.

Since accepting the update to 5.0 I find that I am constantly dropping to a 4G or lower connection which might as well be no connection as it prevents me from doing anything data related. Music streaming, web browsing, YouTube, it all comes to a crawl until I give up and connect to wifi or the connection decides to randomly return to normal.

After updating, I did a full factory reset, twice, and also cleared the cache from recovery.

Is anyone else seeing something similar?

Planning on flashing back to 4.4.2 tonight to see if it is just in my head that it was better before. I enjoy having the latest version of Android, but I enjoy a correctly working smartphone more. LOL

Sorry if this a noon question. Can I use a Moto Maxx (1225) on verizon (versus a vzw turbo 1254)
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] guivalli:
Yes,

just flash xt1254 rom
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] drmrjake:
Would that then make it unrootable (as the 1254 Is currently not able to gain root) or is the reason that the 1225 CAN gain root because it has an unlockable bootloader?
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] Ekkoria:
You CANNOT use an XT1225 on Verizon as it does not have the correct bands! The Turbo uses Verizon's band 13 LTE and the Maxx does not have this band.

However, there's this US version of the Moto Maxx: http://www.cellcom.com/device.html?id=451&navtype=personal&categoryid=1#detail which DOES use Verizon's bands. However, they don't seem to sell them online and they're only available in the Michigan area, so good luck with that one.. Its model number is apparently XT1250 but I can't even find references to that anywhere, I just remember hearing about it in a previous post. Its bootloader is apparently unlockable, so it's essentially got all the Turbo hardware but the Maxx software.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] localceleb:
I'm in Michigan, how do I find one of these devices?
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] Ekkoria:

I'd call first to make sure you can buy one off contract. I'd also try to make sure it's using the bands listed on their website because it could be a clerical error, where someone put the info for the Maxx but used the Turbo's bands.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] drmrjake:
Thanks for all the info. Cleared it up for me
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] ChazzMatt:
There are at least half a dozen CDMA/LTE carriers (actual carriers with their own towers and spectrum, not MVNOs) selling these XT1250 Moto Maxx phones, all over the U.S. You listed one. :)

[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] timmyk465:
Do we have confirmation that the XT1250 version of the Moto Maxx will work on Verizon? Is it as simple as swapping out the SIM card or do you need to reprogram it to work on Verizon's network? I am talking with Thumb Cellular support right now to get verification (if possible) that the bootloader can be unlocked.

I live about 2 hours away from a store, so I might stop by and purchase this phone at full retail if it would work. If it's switchable and unlock able then we have a workaround for unlocking and rooting the Turbo!!!!

EDIT: The main support lady couldn't tell me about bootloader unlock, but she did verify that all their phones work with Verizon. She couldn't comment on switching a phone from Thumb to Verizon though. She also gave me the direct contact to Thumb's technical support team. I am going to call them at lunch today to find out more.
