ROM Update with Vista, any possibility? - P3600 Software Upgrading

Hello,
since a couple of days I try to upgrade my Trinity with a new Rom, but I have no chance. I get this message Erros 260:Connection , so do somebody know how I can flash my Rom under Vista?It would be very nice, thanks a lot!

turn off usb-connection in windows mobile device center, and try again!
if it doesn't work, try "des bootloader", start it and try to flash again.
perhaps you need activesync 4 drivers for your device, i found them somewhere in this board
good luck

thanks a lot, where can I find the active sync drivers, I searched but I found nothing, anybody an idea?

Vista in my eyes is almost perfect - never had any issue!
- using three external hard drives without any problem
- syncing with my Wizard (of course WMDC doesn't "store" contacts, it just syncs them with an Exchange server or Outlook - and it does it even better than ActiveSync)
- and all other stuff I did previously with XP (except ROM upgrading of my Wizard - but that's not a problem of Vista as there are already upgrade tools, we just don't have them so far cause no operator released any upgrade recently or the gurus here haven't been able to hack it to accept custom ROMs)

Hey can you tell me how to make my version of wmdc do what you say your does? As far as syncing the contacts and setting up my mobile email? I only had vista for about a week now and trying to figure it out; i was so dependant on XP but had to move on. Any help will be appreciated.

Actually there are no "tweaks" to make it do what is is supposed to do - it did it straight away! I have no idea where you have problems - WMDC has exactly the same functionality (and some additions to AS) and same options, just different interface. Just go to "mobile device settings" or whatever it is called (I am using the German version) and set it up to sync whatever you want to sync...
If it doesn't work try to delete the partnership and set up a new one...

To make your BA compatable with Vista download Windows Mobile Device Center Driver Update from offsite.Choose the package?depending what OS you running - x86 or x64! And you will be able to sync all your contacts,data,programs...
Windows Mobile Device Center replaced Activesync in Vista.
I had the same problem, with the orginal Windows Mobil Device Manager which you get with vista you can only sync files, but nothing else.
You have to download Mobil Device Manager Beta 3, after installing this one you can make a full sync with your pda.

i did just that..but as soon as i plug in my BA sync center makes an error nd i get the close or debug window...whatever i do..it remains open nd u can browse and sync pictures but no contacts or installations...nd activesync on my BA wont connect..its always waiting for network!
if u use wm5 on your ba try this setting on your ba: start => settings => connections => usb to pc = and check "enabe advanced network functionaliity"
Greets MonsyX
thanks guys the update worked a treat on my xda2`s with helmi upgrade
its already enabled....i've been tweaking with setting for a month now (i've had vista for 2 months) nd i cant get it to work :S
i think there's some service in vista thats disabled or something..i just cant figure it out...btw...i also have office 2007 (outlook) if that helps...if anyone knows of something else that can sync my contacts with outlook plz tell me.
btw..helmi...u took the data backup prog from ur latest rom..where can i get it from?
Hello, you are sure you have e release version of vista?, because i sync my pda every day with my computer with the things i told here, you can try die delete the device from devicemanager and let the system find it with the new drivers form the mobil device manager beta 3.
After i istall the MDM3 my system find a new deivce and install it.
Somting is wrong with your system.
I use outlook 2002 on vista, it's a little bit buggy ( every startup it want make a new profil), but i have not a newer one.
Greets MonsyX
yeah i have the pre-release final version..build 6000...but it seems that there's something buggy with the installation...i'm gonna reinstall windows nd see wat happens.
thx.
Theres no such thing as a pre-release final version!
You have the final version which was released 30th November 2006 to large companies, and to the general public on the 30th January 2007.
i have the final version...but i got it before nov30....which makes it pre-release...anyways its the same windows....the final build...nd thats not the point of my question!
anyone knows anything abt the backup program that used to come with helmi's rom?

just as a reminder, this tool will not let u restore the backup on different version of wm5.
say you backup on aku3.2, then u upgrade to aku3.5, the restore would not work.
ActiveSync is a better tool to backup contacts, calendar ......

OK i will say to everyone that official presentation of vista and office2007 is after few hours, so comments like i have vista from microsoft legally are just ridiculous, and the ridiculous part is not that someone have it, but that this someone do not know how to connect hes pocketpc to it. Only people that have vista before the official launch are large OEMs and Small group of beta testers which recieved thir copies as reward of beta testing. These are the two legal ways of having vista.
[/offtopic]
I got mine through the Beta program. It wasn't released on 30th November by the way, its original release was 8th November to MSDN subscribers.
/ontopic - I do however have a lot of problems with the Sync Center and my BA. I've not actually got it to sync properly yet on RTM.
Has anyone got any thoughts on the new system? Does the ActiveSync replacement:
1) allow more than one device to be connected?
2) avoid duplicate items?
Cheers!
Offtopic:
@Biohead: yeah i forgot about MSDN subscribers you are right, but I am mad about that everyone claims that they have licensed vista and they are not MVP's, MSDN Subscribers, Technical Beta Testers or OEM's, why they are trying to lie, i was in the beta test, i have tested every version provided on connect, and i have not recieved a copy of vista, maybe guys who provided more bugs had copys. whatever i will buy it maybe after SP1 because it really needs a lot of patching. Vista is not what it was promissed to be(look at longhorn demos a way back and you will understand what i mean)
Ontopic:
I have problems with it too, The first time it syncs fine, after that it does not work at all or crash upon connecting.The temporary Fifx for this is remove the WMDC and reinstall it. I think it is not BA specific issue it is all WM device specific one. How we can not have problems with activesync under XP?

i dont know how valid this is right now...since vista is already out...but here's proof that my version is genuine...
i could send u pics of the intallation cds if u want!
anyway...all i needed to know is whether the sync center was buggy or not...nd it seems that i'm not the only one with this problem....btw...a simple solution to this problem would be to install TinyXP on a Vmware workstation nd sync ur BA on that...its a hassle...but it works.
Remember, Sync Center IS STILL IN BETA!!!

Microsoft ActiveSync On Mac OS X

I recently switched to a Mac and was wondering if anyone knew the alternative to Microsoft ActiveSync on Mac OS X. I did a brief search and came up with information about Microsoft Entourage [which I do have on my Mac] and was just wondering if anyone has experience with this? If I plug my Tilt right into my Mac, will Entourage pick it up or what?
Thanks in advance, Walt.
For Mac OS X, you need a (non-free) software called Missing Sync.
Or you can use Parallels to run Windows XP and ActiveSync from within Mac OS.

I have an iMac running Leopard and I run Missing Sync. Works great for me. Syncs Address Book, iCal , iPhoto , Tasks, Phone Log, even iTunes (non DRM ) music.
I also have my Tilt sync'd to the Windows XP side of my Mac because the one thing you cannot do through Missing Sync is flash new roms or radios. That can only be done through Windows. But I use Bootcamp , I used to use Parallels but their support for their product is non existent.
I needed help with a setting and emailed them and Nova Development no less than 15 times, never even an acknowledgement. Bootcamp is free runs smoother and has better graphics compatibility.
You will need a Windows machine for updates.

syncmate is free and works great for me. Im running leopard on a powerbook.

same here, no complaints at all ..
i recommend u have dual system - get windows xp as a virtual machine it will be cost effective and more reliable especially if you are a flashing man like the rest of us

On my MacBook Pro, Missing Sync.
One note on uploading ROM's. I was able at one time to do it using Parallels but recently one of Dutty's ROMs locked my Tilt in the Tri color screen. It wasn't the ROM, something had change either in a new version of Parallels or OSX. Moving over to an old Toshiba fixed the phone. I've since tested it again and it still fails on Parallels. Just a word to the wise.

Same thing happened with me under parallels. I can still flash radio firmware and splashes using Parallels, but when flashing the entire rom, its like the connection gets interrupted or timed out. I was previously able to do it before so Im positive its either a parallels or OSX issue when it updated.
Dual boot and use WinDoZe to handle the rom flashing, but honestly Missing sync works great for the contacts / address book info / ect.
=D
I tried to reply to your post maybe 3 different times last night through opera on my device but failed...
anyway i'm on the same boat. Have misssing sync but dont use it much.. my main mode of connectivity is on windows running through vmware's fusion... no problems what so ever with flashing roms.. i used to use parallel's but tried out fusion and liked it a lot better! highly recommend it.

I tried quickly to get my Wizard syncing with a VirtualBox VM with no success. Does someone use VirtualBox to connect to a WM device?

ActiveSync problem

here is my system:
- Outlook 2007 SP1
- Windows XP SP3 Home
- ActiveSync 4.5
here is my problem:
I used to sync notes, tasks, contacts and calendar with my pc. Since this night activesync gives me error 80004005 for anything i try to sync except notes.
When I first sync notes it shows a windows to I choose between merge from device or pc and any option i choose performs note sync. Tasks, Contacts or Calendar in any combination will result in a fail sync.
what i tried:
- remove device, reboot device and pc. Try to sync.
- repair my Outlook file with scanpst.exe.
- remove all my calendars and tasks. No luck.
Some light please...
The epic continues...
...Tired of dont get answers I hard-reseted my device.
The nice surprise, sync worked.
So i installed 5 cabs in a row, rebooted the device and sync dont work again.
Well, the problem maybe in one cab. Removed each one and repet the test but the problem dont go away.
So I removed my device from Activesync list, reboot the pc and the device.
Now its working, i will investigate the problematic cab and post here.
After some stressing research I found the problematic cab.
It seems to be a incompatible between Dutty´s 2.9 MSVC and "Duttys All in one Cabs".
-Remove "Duttys All in one Cabs".
-Restart PC and device.
-Removed my device from PC´s ActiveSync list.
-ReSync.
No more problems.
If someone is experimenting the same problem please post some feedback. Thx!
I have the same problem as I did exactly the same as what you have described.
I didn't know that was the cause. I gave up and changed to CVSD version. No problem at all now. Thank you for verifying this....
saint7608, when you have this problem do you remember having installed "Duttys All in one Cabs"?

Yes, I did.
I thought I have the Sync problem solved when I switched to CVSD. The problem is coming back after I install everything I need including "Dutty's All in one Cabs". I think, again, it could be due to "Duttys All in one Cabs".
Here is what I have done,
Flash CVSD, hard reset
install Chinese CE Star for Chinese Font / Input Support
Sync with outlook, no problem and very fast
install "Duttys All in one Cabs"
install TrackThisOutTracky (GPS trail tracking software)
install Duttys Compact Qwerty KBD
install Full Qwerty KBD default
install Tnyynt Full Keyboard Font Fix
install Penpower WorldCard Mobile
install GPS Test
install Skype
I cannot remember the sequence of installing all other software except CE star (I always do this first everytime I flash with new ROMs).

Diamond Vista sync problem

Hi there. Few days ago I changed my OS from XP to Vista. From that time I couldnt sync my Diamond. I have got SP1 and all updates. I wanted install Windows Mobile Device Center Update but when the instalattion was nearly at 99% it reversed at uninstall without any message. I havent any Windows Mobile Device Center icon between programs but I have this icon in Control Panel. I can connect my Diamond to laptop, I can transfer files for example but there is no tasks or contacts sync. Can anybody help me? I treid many thinks I found on the Internet but still no solution. I checked the Firewall as well and the related applications are allowed. I even tried to switch off the firewall but didnt help me.
So I found the solution by myself. Maybe it wil be useful for somebody. Before installing Windows Mobile Device Center Update you should do at least the following:
- update graphic driver at the newest one,
- update all Microsoft Windows Mobile Remore Adapter related things.
Important: the mobile must be conneected to the computer during searching for updates and installing them as well.
My computer is ASUS eeePC 1000H. Now it works like charm.
I have only one thing to say about Vista:
Its an amazing OS I love Vista.
Waiting patiently for Window 7.

Vista It's piss of ****...
1. My daughter got Laptop with Vista (Toshiba), during 4 month she had to Re install OS (and all programs) after Vista made Auto Update and could not recover from it..
2. Many programs I bought for her with good money, could not
run on the Vista.
3. Vista it's like forest.. so many trees , so you could not see the forest

Activesync issues after a virgin flash(es).

Hey guys, First off I wanna thank all the wonderful people in this awesome forum for their help in making me get the best out of my phone, truly you guys are great !
So, I did my 'research' into ROM updating and stuff (been a homebrewer on various mobile/portable devices before, just got an old WM6.1 Opal from my brother and decided to play with it )
So, I'd been using the stock WM6.1 + Manila (TouchFlow 2D) that HTC provides in India (Idea Splash Screen ROM) and a few awesome apps such as the M2DC and stuff. Loved it till I'd did something wrong with the M2DC that it stopped displaying the weather (it would show nothing but "Select your city" ). Also, I'd HSPL'd the device a while back using 2.00.cmon (ty cmonex ) So, I wanted to try a few ROMs. The first ever ROM I installed was jagan's Evolution2, it was an awesome ROM, zero bugs (except for ActiveSync; which maybe my fault), but I didn't like the button layout at the bottom of the device, I also missed Manila 2D. So I tried out Opal_WM6.5_D20_21896_WWE loving the design and stuff, but it ain't as smooth
All those gripes aside, I can't seem to get ActiveSync working at all ! With both of these ROMs, was it because I didn't remove the microSD/SIM while flashing or some other fault of mine or does 6.5 not work with Activesync 4.5. The only dialog I get when I try to get it to work is that " It needs Activesync 4.5 or later", I do have 4.5 installed, all the necessary windows components installed, etc ! I don't know why it doesn't work anymore. It used to work perfectly till I flashed these ROMs, any way I can get this to work as I need to get back a ton of contacts and stuff
What's your OS? XP, Vista, or 7??
On XP re-install Activesync and see what happens.
Vista requires an Activesync update from Microsoft, visit their site and look for it.
on Windows 7 I'm using the Evolution 2 ROM and it syncs fine right from the beginning, never had any kind of trouble.
If re-installing doesn't solve your problem, try deleting the partnership, and creating a new one.
BTW, you should try the new Evo 2.5A, it has a newer version of Manila 2D, and a different button layout.
Tell us what happens.
Good luck.

I'm sorry for my english...
The problem is in the USB to PC configuration. For example, on my WM6.5 the procedure is:
1) Start --> System --> USBtoPC
2) Clear the checkbox "Enable faster data synchronization"
(Clear this check if ActiveSync does not recognize the device)
Good luck!
