hi

having problems with htc sync but cannot fix this until i at least get the phone to appear in device manager

at the moment, which i plug it in via usb (official htc cable) it charges but nothing shows in device manager so cannot even update drivers etc

running 32 bit win 7

any solutions welcomed

thanks
[Desire General] MasDroid:
Once the relevant drivers have been installed, and your phone has been connected as an drive, it should show up under Disk Drives In Device Manager.

Download HTC Sync from here: http://www.htc.com/www/SupportDownloadList.aspx?p_id=312&act=sd&cat=3

Esnure that you have USB debugging enabled:

1. From the Home screen, press MENU, and then tap Settings > Applications > Development.

2. Make sure the USB debugging check box is selected.

After you have installed HTC Sync, turn off the phone and turn it back on again while connected to the PC via the USB cable, and then select the Disk Drive option.
[Desire General] rhedgehog:
if it only shows as disk drives, then it still wont work.

You should have an 'ADB devices' section at the top (or it might be called ADB interfaces, it's been a while since i did it on 7)

here, the phone should show as 'My HTC'

chances are that windows 7 decided it knew better and went and installed an 'HTC Dream adb composite device' from windows update instead of the ones installed by HTC SYnc

delete those or update manually to the My HTC ones and you should be good.

The disk drives is for the SD card and has nothing to do with the sync at all as far as i know.
[Desire General] mlear:
thanks for the response, but the device just will not show in device manager

i have tried the above steps

Isn't the Desire meant to have "Dolby Mobile sound enhancement" as the music coming out currently doesn't sound very good at all, for starters it sounds quite tinny (probz due to the treble being too high). It becomes especially apparent at high volumes.

is the dolby thing going to be added in an update, and how about equalizer options, there is very little options when it comes to music play back, has HTC said anything about this?

[General Questions and Answers] mark.lawler:
Our company changed its policy and one can only connect company paid for Crackberries to our Exchange servers. We came in last week to find we all had new login IDs and users on our laptops. That said I had to try it anyways with my HTC AT&T Tilt 2 to connect to MS Outlook to repopulate my contacts and calendar.

Here is what I found: I can establish a partnership between my WinMo 6.5 phone and laptop and sync my contacts and calendar, but after I disconnect my phone my 3G data connection via AT&T's MediaNet connection is broken. Even if I reboot or reset my phone I cannot establish a data connection. The 3G icon is there, but you get the error message that it cannot connect anytime the phone attempts to send/receive data. Better yet, after 3-5 hours the phone even then loses its ability to connect to a phone network! To fix the phone I have to restore from a backup I made before establishing the new partnership (thank god for SPB Backup!). I've reproduced this test case 4 times now and have narrowed it specifically to establishing the partnership with the laptop and doing a sync with the local contacts and calendar entries in MS Outlook.

Questions:

1) How does ActiveSync deliver a poison pill that disables my data connection? How does this manifest itself hours later in to turning the phone in to a brick?

2) Is there something I can do to block this from occurring on my device if I still wish to connect to my work laptop via the USB cable. I know I can delete the partnership, but hell, I'd still love to at least sync my contacts and calendar...

Thanks,

-Mark
[General Questions and Answers] egzthunder1:
It isn't a "poison pill". What happened is that your connection settings from your computer were carried over to the phone (especially proxy settings if you have them). This happened to me at work as well. The internet on my device stopped working suddenly, and after playing with the device a bit, I realized that the proxy settings of my 3G connection were the exact same ones that I had in my laptop. Simply check the connection settings and make sure that they are still what they should be.

Good luck!
[General Questions and Answers] mark.lawler:
Thanks, but...

Many thanks. However, MediaNet is the AT&T 3G preconfigured network and any options to edit the connection settings are disabled, perhaps to prevent the non-technical from breaking their connection. I have tried the built-in "remove proxy" / "restore default proxy" icons, but neither of those appeared to work. Perhaps I'm missing where I can do this for the pre-configured MediaNet connection?

Thanks,

-Mark
[General Questions and Answers] egzthunder1:
I hate to say this, but then you may have to hard reset your device. Backup your stuff with something like PIM Backup to ensure that you won't have to use Exchange Server again... I still it might have messed up your settings and as a consequence, now you cannot get connected (nor fix the settings). I would love to know how in the world at&t managed to block WM basic settings :confused:
[General Topics] SMS92:
Afternoon xda

I've just received the "We've stopped you using the internet on your mobile because you've gone over your data allowance. You can start using it again after your next bill date" SMS from o2.

I'm on a 12 month SIM only contract (Simplicity) that includes 800mins, 1600texts and the 'unlimited' web bolt on.

This is a new contract and I was on a similar one last year. Last year my usage varied a lot, particularly when I had no home broadband for a while when moving addresses and used up several gigs before getting a warning (via sms and snailmail).

This time, however, this is the first time I've received a message on this contract and I wasn't even warned before hand. I've just been looking through my used bytes in my o2 account and it looks like it adds up to just over 1GB. Yesterday I used tethering to stream BBC iPlayer on a laptop which used up a couple of hundred megs which pushed it over the edge, it would seem.

I'm using a HTC HD2 which is obviously very data orientated with constant updates, messengers running, etc.

So a warning to everyone on o2 in the UK - it looks like things have changed and we now get 1GB and then our data connections CUT OFF until our bill month rolls over, with no prior warning. I'm now without mobile broadband for almost a week.
[General Topics] SMS92:
:eek:UPDATE:eek:

I called o2 not holding up much hope.

The call went something like this:

Me: "Good afternoon, I'm calling because I received a text from o2 in regards to going over my data allowance. I use my sim in an HTC HD2 and I don't think I've used any more data than I have in previous months.

Her: "Ok Sir, I see you have unlimited internet on your account so I'll lift the bar for you"

Me: "For reals?"

Her: "Yes Sir, it may take up to 24 hours to be removed."

So no messing about there! Though I'm impressed with o2's customer services I'm still amazed this was dealt with so quickly. People with unlimited net who think they've had their data unfairly cut off - call up o2 and talk to them, fantastic service!
[General Topics] xaccers:
Never having a problem with O2's customer services is one of the main reasons why I stick with them.

I had problems with my bank screwing up direct debits, so I'd miss the payment date for my bill and have a bar put in place.

A quick phone call and paying by debit card would get it sorted, but once they had a problem where the unbar didn't go through.

So I called up the next day and joked with the woman, got the bar removed and £15 credit as an appology.

Their broadband customer/tech service is excellent too.

1Mbps upstream for £5
[General Topics] matt.tumber:
I had the exact same problem, gave o2 a bell and they lifted the bar for me. Conversation went much the same as above
[General Topics] dr_strangetrick:
You must be luck, I ordered the sim card from the advert on TV £15pm and unlimited internet.

I checked my ballance and it was 500Mb, I used 1Mb and checked the next day (thinking it may be 500Mb/day) and it was 499Mb

I called O2 and complained and the lady said "well we cant give you unlimited can we..." and after a lot of complaining I got my money back.

I was getting 750Mb per month on Virgin for less
[General Topics] bym007:
You guys are lucky with O2. Look at what Vodafone UK is running away with.

Sneakily changing our contracts from "unlimited with a soft cap of 500MB" to hard capped at 500MB. According to the new (much disputed) tariff, anything over 500MB will be charged an extra £5 for next 500MB.

This is being discussed in a lot of detail on Vodafone UK eforums and MoneySavingExpert forums (link).

If you are not using Vodafone yourself, please let everyone know about this, so these mobile providers stop getting away with murder now!

I have started a new thread on XDA-Dev here for discussing it.

Hoping that these take their tarrifs back and see some sense!

[HD2 General] brody77:
Hi all,

This is actually my second HD2 handset.

I'm with Virgin & my original was faulty, got this one as a replacement on Friday.

However, I strongly suspect it's a reconditioned unit, as I can't really use it, if I'm honest.

Anytime I install anything - even when I try to specify to SD Card - it comes up with the system memory critical error, and then I get a memory error that flashes up every time I try to do anything on the phone.

When I go into remove programs there's nothing there that sets off alarm bells, and I can't think of anything that *I* know of to cause this problem.

My only thought is that the unit has something installed somewhere, possibly hidden, that's eaten up all the memory?

It's driving me mental, but I wanted some advice before I complain to virgin again as they are being reluctant to change it again or give me a different make/model of phone.

Oh, since Friday I've done 4 factory resets on this due to the above problem.

Once was because I was trying SPB shell but it installed the the phone even though I specified the card. Bizzarely, after removing SPB, I've gotten stuck with "windows blue" on the top & bottom bars & it won't uninstall.

Any thoughts or advice very welcome.

Not sure what else you'd need info wise - I have the default rom version etc that was on the handset when I got it on Friday (up to date for Virgin) and all I've tried to put on is cookies home tab & some better icons etc.

Thanks in advance

HD 2 Low memory

Hi,

Use the search button in the upper right corner. There are a lot of threads covering this problem.

Basically, it should be enough to move the Opera and the HTC album cache to the storage card.

Also check the Youtube cache.

Follow tips #65 & #67: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=583638

To move the album cache, search for the cab named "HTCAlbum%20CacheMod2". Before that you have to install "SdkCerts".

Hope this helps.
[HD2 General] Reignzone:
Yup, yup.

Please search from now on...

And my advice is to find yourself a system cleaning application such as, Memory Maid, or Pocket Mechanic...

Use it to run a cache clear and RAM reclaim every so often...
[HD2 General] brody77:
No offence guys, but I did search on memory issues, but was getting pages of stuff & I needed a quick fix as I'm going back to my mobile provider to complain.

As it happens, my HD2 actually has around 100Mb LESS internal memory than it should have in total, so something is very wrong.

I think I'll just tell them where to shove the handset as I've had nothing but problems on two seperate handsets in 2 months now.

Thanks for the cleaning tips, it's appreciated despite my handset being faulty.

[HD2 General] JonFolse:
Ok if I disable all location services in the settings tab underneath "location" will this completely turn off GPS and location??? I say this because I remember once I did this to save battery but in the taskbar above there was still a globe present meaning location services were on. (Im guessing) Would there be anything else to disable. I shutdown Google maps also.
[HD2 General] Svegetto:
the location services do not use gps, they use triangulation (uses the service towers to give a rough estimate where you are; plenty enough to figure out what city you're in).

So this has nothing to do with gps. GPS is always off unless an application is using it (aka a navigation program or google maps with "Use GPS" checked).

Are you using a custom task bar? I don't believe the stock one has a globe as one of the icons. If you are talking about a custom task bar, then you're probably talking bout the equivalent of the triangle in the stock task bar which is the 'roaming' icon. I'm pretty sure that icon is always on when using Tmobile in the USA with winmo and they just got rid of the icon (so it's on, but it's blank). Don't worry about that, it doesn't mean squat for tmobile USA (Tmobile pays other companies to let their customers use their signal).

Hope that helps
