[HD2 General] le_paulo:
This is a really annoying problem - it's hit me on 2 separate machines (laptop and desktop) - running Windows 7 64bit and 32 bit. Both machines worked fine on Vista before they were upgraded to Windows 7.

For some more information on possible "fixes" - see http://www.windowsphoneexpert.com/Connection/forums/t/3643.aspx and http://social.microsoft.com/Forums/en/windowsmobileactivesync/thread/3139b9ba-1038-4fce-858b-0f305df68a5a plus a whole lot of other posts on the microsoft forums.

Looks like a frequent problem which can be either dead easy or impossible to fix. In my case, it was impossible as the drivers failed to load, irrespective of the USB-to-PC status, whether WMDC was re-installed, and even which HTC device I used - TYTN (WM5), Polaris(WM6.1) and now Leo(WM6.5). Tried the hard reset (while doing Leo Rom upgrades :D) and manual update of drivers. All for nada... :confused:

I don't know if I can face formatting my PCs - that seems excessive and is not guaranteed to solve the problem anyway judging from the 2 machines I've got here.
[HD2 General] henv:
I had this problem also. There are a few possible solutions.

-Already Mentioned. Disable fast synchronisation on the telephone

-Check in Windows Mobile Device Center, under Mobile device Settings, Connection Settings "allow usb connections" is enabled

-If you installed a custom USB Driver (in example for the USPL for a HD). Maybe this driver isnt working now. (for x64 you must boot windows in disable digital driver modus). Uninstall this driver in device manager, disconnect telephone and connect again. (also look if there will appear a ! or something)
[HD2 General] pim:
I had a similar issue and it took me a whole day to find what was wrong.

The problem was coming from the bios of my motherboard which was not up to date. I own a Gigabyte P55-UD4P.

After updating the bios it's working great under W7 :)

Maybe you should check that option.
[HD2 General] Dracoster:
I did that. Nothing. But a format did help.
[HD2 General] radim.barsa:
Like le_paulo, I have totally the same issue as he describes. 2 PC recently updated from Vista to windows 7 and not both doesnt work with my HD2. I have also the issue with the Generic RNDIS, but also with an instalation of the microsoft automatic update of Microsoft Corporation driver update for Microsoft Windows Mobile Remote Adapter (about 11MB) which always failed and never finish. Did anyone find an solution for this problem ? Thank you
[HD2 General] ugumba:
The problem just started happening to me, even though my Leo worked fine over USB/Activesync for weeks earlier. My desktop has Win7x64. I'm using kwbr's Topix 1.2, a very conservative, stable ROM.

The connection DOES work however, in EITHER of these 2 cases:

* I disable the fast USB mode (Settings - Other - USB to PC)

* I disable the Windows Firewall

If anyone else sees the same, maybe we can work together to figure out what needs to be opened in the Windows Firewall?
[HD2 General] UberScooter:
My problem is similar:

Connected my HD2 no problem to my home PC running Windows 7 32 Professional and only connected to my HD2 to explore files. Did all I needed to including an upgrade to ROM 1.66.

Took my HD2 to work and plugged in to my PC running Windows 7 32 Professional - it starts to install and then fails with an error message about drivers.

I just cannot get it to connect...arrrggghhh

Scott
[HD2 General] ugumba:
Just figured it out for my case - YMMV:

1. Open Windows Firewall with Advanced Security

2. In "Inbound Rules", locate "Windows Mobile-based Device Connectivity - Network Access (TCP-in)" (I had only one such rule)

3. Double click it, click the "Scope" tab

4. On my PC, "Local IP address" was set to 127.0.0.1. I changed it to "Any"

I plugged in my Leo, and it worked, fast USB and all!

The only reason I considered changing the scope value, was that *all* other inbound rules had "Any" - the 127.0.0.1 looked very much out of place.

EDIT: Just checked another Win7x86 PC - it has *six* rules (including the 127.0.0.1 one). So in my case, 5 rules had been removed. Reinstalling WMDC seems to be the proper way to fix this.

Anyway, I hope this helps others!
[HD2 General] leftkats:
my solution is that when you connect your hd2 with windows 7 and it doesn't find the driver, run the windows update program and check for updates, while your phone is still connected... it should be able to find it and install the drivers for you... if your phone is not connected then it won't find anything, it has to be connected untill the update finishes.. hope it works... i think after the update finishes you might have to disconnect and reconnect your phone... done it on about 5 different installations of windows 7 both 32 and 64 bit :D
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] ijwoo1:
I've tried most of the apps in the marketplace and none seem to work on the Hero.

There are two types of App, the first is used directly, that is you type your number into the app and in theory it should first dial the local access number before dialling the number you entered. This type of app complains with USSD MMI errors

The 2nd type of app should detect that you are attemtping to dial an intl number and intercept it, dialling the local access number before dialling the number/ contact you entered. With this type of app the detection does not work, you end up making the call directly using your normal mobile operator.

None of the apps work:-

Accudial

CellularLD

Calling Card Pro

Phonecard Express

Vopium

Voxofon

The developer of Calling card pro aknowledges the problem with Heros and in particular those that run custom ROMs.

Anyone found a solution ?
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] ijwoo1:
Connection problem/ Invalid MMI

Looks as though I am not alone !

http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=2226
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] ijwoo1:
Well I have found that Truphone works, they do no thave the best rates but it is better than nothing and better than dialling my phone card manually and entering the access number and pin.

It looks as though it is the "#" that gets inserted into the dial string by these type of apps that causes the problems.
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] juztaTester:
Morning,

I would say Google Voice should be the best solution if you are based in the USA.

Good luck.

Someone use this pda holder with leo?

I used it with blackstone and tomtom one and it work well, but leo has glass screen and i fear if it drop in the car.

I want to know other opinions, or perhaps life experiences:D
[HD2 Accessories] 20mihalko:
as far as i saw, you need to stick some piece on the back of Leo, so it is not for me...
[HD2 Accessories] sar3vok:
yes, a little metal disk (i have suffered for the decision but at the end it isn't so ugly). i've installed it because i really hate telephone car holders with sucker
[HD2 Accessories] 20mihalko:
and is it working properly? you sticked that smallest one? are you satisfyied with that? it doesn`t look like bad idea now :) how difficult is to remove that metal piece from back?
[HD2 Accessories] sar3vok:
i've tested and the magnet is strong enough to hold the hd2 (obviously i'm not been in off road but who know italian roads know wich kind of roads i'm talking about) and it is possible to easily rotate for landscape or portrait mode.

about the cover: the little metal disk is not so horrible to see (in my opinion) but the adesive power is very strong and i think that it must be removed very carefully.

So i heard around that the G1 will be getting an OTA update in the new year for android 2.5 (im assuming some kind of spin off of the nexus OS) and was wondering if any one has any info on this for hero or if anyone has got anything to develop built on 2.5 (pastie? yum yum? xmas cake?)

Thanks guys,

:)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] benlc:
2.5 ???

I guess Flan is 2.1, I didn't hear anything about 2.5 yet.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] stickyasglue:
lol ok ill remove the flan bit

twitter it

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] benlc:
I just checked, and I don't really believe in it. Their source seems to be :

http://droidheaven.com/2009/12/12/g1-and-mytouch-3g-to-get-2-5-update-in-january/

Apparently they call a "Special eclair update" 2.5
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] foxmeister:
I suspect you will find it is Eugene373's Eclair ROM, as I believe his currently stands at V2.4 (note, his ROM version, not the Android version), and thus his next version is likely to be.... 2.5

I seriously doubt that we'll see Android 2.5 early next year.

Guys,

HTC released an update of the new HTC messaging tool for HD2. I downloaded the file from the HTC website. Can we use this to improve the HTC message client? HTC Messsaging looks better, but only works with a small number of messages.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] ClydeB1:
I'm not sure that you can add it directly to an existing rom. Many of the chefs are however beginning to add this new version into their roms.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] drpweb:
The site says that the HTC is valid for ROM is not above 1.49. So those who are using version 1.61 already have this update. But I'll be honest, it does not save the situation with a lot of messages.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] eddyve:
I don't think so. HTC released this new version only 2 days ago. I think it is after the 1.61 version. Anyway, I hope that chefs will use this version and I do hope this solves the speed problem
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] jldiablo:
sadly, the hotfix does not fix the problem...it has been discussed in the LEO forum..

we have to wait till next release and hope HTC can do something useful...

[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] Peteret:
Typing often misses letters out because the screen is not so sensitive. The top layer of the screen seems saggy too and makes a 'sticking' sound from between the 2 layers when tapping with the stylus.

I may send it back.

Anyone else with this issue?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] Bruce Inman:
There has been an issue reported where an oil spot appears between the 2 layers and the fix was to pull apart with duct tape.

Doesn't sound good either way.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] bobokonijn:
Hello all,

I need to send in my (Dutch) HTC Touch Diamond for warranty. It had reception problems which I tried to fix by installing a new radio rom and hardspl, but unfortunately the problems persisted.

Now I have restored the latest original ROM (2.03.404.3). Only, I never wrote down which bootloader (SPL) was originally on the phone. I bought it brand new in August 2008. Any idea which SPL version would be most likely to be on a phone that old? I installed V1.93, would that be OK?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] mancsoulja:
from my understanding there is only one stock spl, all the others are modified ones :confused: maybe im wrong i usually am lol
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Nirak:
i sent a diamond in a few weeks ago that was bought brand new in may 2008, i put version 1.35 on it and flashed with the same official rom as you; my device was repaired without problems.

You've restored the stock OS and stock radio already i presume, after restoring the stock SPL you can flash the latest original rom again, cuz as far as i remember the official2.03.404.3 rom also upgrades the SPL to the latest official one (don't shoot me if i'm wrong :) )

ive had a Fuze for almost a year now and i really like the phone. the other day something went wrong on the phone and the screen just simply wont work. its black no matter what. the phone actually does come on because it vibrates when i turn it on after taking battery in/out. i can even answer phone calls and adjust volume with side buttons and everything. its just the screen that does not work.

i called the warranty place and they send me a new Fuze which is good, but im a bit scared sending this one back to them (which i have to do within the next 5 days). will they find out the original Hard SPL and ROM is not loaded onto the phone? i had a custom ROM on there and im afraid they might discover this and charge me a ridiculous amount of money for my new phone. does anyone have any insight about this or what i should do?

Hello,

I'm newbee here to flash ROM.

I search an official French ROM v6.5 for TyTN 2.

Where do I find this ?

Thanks.

PS : Sorry for my rusty english. :p
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] stylez:
There is no official French WM6.5 ROM for Kaiser same as there is no official English WM6.5 ROM for Kaiser as they are all ports since never released.

I don't think a french WM6.5 custom ROM has been released..
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] Korben-Dallas:
OK Thanks for your reply.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] ChasDun:
OK. So you guys had me all ready to pull the trigger on the Tilt 2. And now I see the LG Expo online at ATT (I am stuck with ATT because I am an employee). The Expo seems very comparable to the Tilt 2 and so I did more research. And now I am thoroughly undecided about which to get. I watched this demo video on youtube and am very intrigued. Also check out this one.

I am hoping some of you Tilt 2 users who also know about the LG Expo can give me your insight.

Below is what I have found as far as pros and cons for both. I have a spreadsheet below where I compared what I think are the most important features. I highlighted in green what I thought were clear advantages for both. And by the way, the projector for the LG is not a consideration for me...cool...but not for me.

Tilt 2 Winners: Larger screen, better keyboard, seemingly much better battery, incredible speaker phone functionality, and of course the tilting screen function

LG Expo Winners: 1 ghz processor, 5.0 MP camera, seemingly awesome touch sensor directional pad and fingerprint scanner, SD card accessible on side, HSPA 7.2 capable (but I do not consider this an advantage because by the time AT&T can actually provide that throughput, all phones will have it), S-class user interface (LG version of TF3D - it seems very customizable).

Tilt 2 Losers: No D-pad (I am a big one-handed user and I live on my d-pad), poor SD card access, zoom bar (from my experience the Zoom bar is a dud and thus a waste of space), giant audio adapter.

LG Losers: Battery, battery, battery (this could be a deal breaker...it needs more real world testing), no 3.5 jack.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] singhnx:
You might to add one more item to the Tilt 2's pro column: Latest and greatest custom ROMs by a lot of chefs.

I don't think that you'll have too many ROMs to flash (and the increased risk because there is no HardSPL for it) for the LG Expo.

I am jealous about the 1Gig processor though.
