problem: Wlan on windows xp pro sp2 - Shift Development

hello people,
i've installed windows xp sp2 with a step by step guide on xda (this one http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=436982) without problems.
At the end, when we have to install wlan drivers, i've noticed that marvell sdio sd8686 appear in the hardware list but there is also a yellow ! on this hardware with the error code number 10, windows cannot start hardware.
I've tried with some other drivers that i found on internet but with the same results. Someone can help me?

Hi en_ky!
I was following the other installation method "Installing Windows XP with Windows Post Install (WPI)" that you can find on this forum, but basically should be the same.
Anyway, regarding WLAN on the WPI method it says:
"13. WLAN: Drivers are copied to c:\wlandrivers, install from there when you are asked for them later". This step is just before installing CYGWIN
After finishing with SwapResolution,
"Now it usually asks about the WLAN drivers, see step nr. 13."
"If it asks about drivers for Windows Mobile, just answer yes until it finishes."
"To get Wifi working, you have to copy the "copy HTC Shift XP Drivers\WLAN\sdbus.sys to c:\windows\system32\drivers\ say yes to the replace dialog and reboot."
"DO THIS IN SAFE MODE ONLY. This is how I got mine to work. I had the same problem with the yellow and not working wifi code 10 in the device manager."
"If you copy this without being in safe mode, it will not work because after the reboot the system will replace the overridden version with the old one again."
So check again all the steps and do the last one in Safe Mode (I think here is your problem)!
Good luck!

thank you for your reply,
I tried to resolve my problem with help of windows update and an eterneth connection for internet. At first it doesn't start with the same yellow ! But after a restart, it starts!!!!
Many thanks to you in any case; i know that your answer will be usefull for another person with this problem!

Cannot Sync with Win7

Hello guys,
Anyone running Win7 beta? I tried both 32 and 64-bit and I cannot synchronize... I always get an error, but Windows will not give me any details on it -or an error code to go on with. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling the device, but haven't succeeded...
Any help much appreciated!

Download Windows mobile device center for vista on the microsoft site
Works for me
Good luck
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/en-us/help/synchronize/device-center.mspx

That's what I'm running - in fact, Win7 downloads it automatically.
Here's what I'm getting:
Hi, I had kinda same problem. I got a message in windows help, saying that i had to start command in "admin mode", and then type:
reg delete HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\SQMClient\Windows\DisabledSessions /va /f
When I did that, and started Win Mobile Device Center all worked perfect..
I uninstalled Windows Mobile Device Centre and then installed the downloaded one and works a treat now.
Remember guys Win7 is beta so share your findings with Microsoft
i can connect with bluetooth but not usb in win7, but i still sync with vista.

Hm, thanks for the tip... I googled it and it seems a catch-all fix of some sorts.
In my case, the suggested key was empty. So, you can guess, it didn't work
Thanks nevertheless!
Guys, thanks for the info above, saved me a pile of time!
So... am I the only one? With two different installations of Win7 and two different ROMs it surely sounds strange...
had the same problems with win7
..then i unchecked the "faster synchronisation" option in diamonds "USB to PC " setting.
(The checkbox below "acitive sync synchronisation with outlook")
I´m using the german ROM, so the menu description might sound slightly different to what i posted ;-)
I always have this off, since it has never worked for me on any machine (either for my previous TyTNII or the Diamond). So It's been unchecked the whole time. The problem is that ActiveSync DOES recognize the device, it initiates the sync procedure and then craps out
strange
..i´m running win7 on 2 machines and the active sync stuff works without problems..
running latest udK Syrius GER ROM

USPL and Windows 7

Hello,
I have already moved to Windows 7, which is very stable and much faster then Windows Vista...
There are some problems with the Windows 7 and USPL...
Is there a configuration guide, which explains the procedure, how I can manage the USB connection problems within Windows 7.
Many Thanks
Roman
You need to update the USB drivers.
The following post will explain how. This works for Windows 7 aswell as Vista.
http://www.modaco.com/content/windo...u-on-vista-it-can-be-done-the-ultimate-guide/
One thing to note, you have to put your phone in bootloader and connect it via USB for it to show the Mobile Device - HTC USB in Device Manager.
One laptop I was on I knew I had to apply the fix on so hadn't tried without updating, and took me forever to find out why I couldn't find the driver to update.
I used a small program called "Driver Signature Enforcement Overrider 1.3b".
Its freeware for using unsigned drivers in Windows 7.
I'm using Windows 7 x64 and USPL works perfect now.
Thanks

Hello,
Had to upgrade my Windows 7 to build 7077 first....!
Then it worked @ 1st try... ;-)
Roman
I have problem with installing driver on Windows 7 64-bit (build 7077). I always get error: This device cannot start (Code 10). Does anyone have solution for it?
I had to get to 7077 as well, i couldnt make it start on 7057 or 7068 either.
I just solved it, but I can't explained how... I tried it again and again.. did some restart of HD and of Windows 7 and finally I was successfull . My tip is to re-connect HD on USB before installation...
I use 7077 x64 and no issues with it whatsoever. I had no issues at all with any build and actually it gets the drivers and Windows Mobile Device Center automatically for me. Check your system drivers like chipset and usb controller for updated versions maybe?
Thanks
Many thanks for the solution that you give to us.
I have been testing every release of Windows 7 since 7000 and as long as you install WMDC (Windows Mobile Device Center 6.1) and then update the HTC USB Sync driver (put your phone into bootloader and update the driver in device manager with the one from the guide in my signature) you won't have any issues flashing roms. This is for both 32 and 64-bit versions of Windows 7.

Windows 7 RC on Shift?

Hi All,
I was trying to install Win 7 on my HTC Shift using the USB disk method. The installation goes well until it get to the last step configuring windows or your machine.... then it gives me an error, Installer was unable to configure windows to run on your hardware restart installation.
Any ideas why is that or how it can be resolved?
Thanks
There's the RTM version now available, check for Hash to be sure it's the real deal, and use the same install instructions. I recommed you use Windows Update before drivers, then install what is left because there's some new drivers like Authentec TrueSuite which is only downloadable through manufacturers. All works

I'm running Win 7 RC for a while now on my shift... and everything is fine... I don't know what is the issue you have. maybe you should try to reinstall it and check if you have a correct version of Win 7 RC.

USB Tethering: How ?

The cyanogen rom 4.2.3 has USB tethering support, but I can not get it to work, mainly because of missing information/documentation.
In 'settings' 'wireless controls' there is a nice 'Internet tethering' option to switch it on. When I switch that on then my Windows XP PC shows an unknown device 'Andriod Phone' and would like to install drivers for it. Where can I get these drivers from ?
Markus
I would also like to know how the usb tethering works for a mac as well. Didnt find any information on that. Thanks in advance.
You may need to get the drivers from the Android SDK, but with regards to USB tethering, your phone should be recognised as an NDIS based network device and installed automatically by Windows. Not sure about XP, but it installs automatically on Vista and 7
Under Ubuntu Linux (from an end-user perspective), when a G1 is connected with USB tethering enabled, network manager connects as if the phone were a standard, ethernet connection.

I have the Android SDK (1.6r1) and I point the driver install wizard at the usb_driver directory when he wants to install the device. Despite this the 'Found new Hardware' Wizard come up with 'Cannot install this Hardware'.

For xp you have to install drivers from htc sync software. Just google 'htc sync'. Should have been asked in q&a.
Nothing happens on Mac OS X 10.5.8 neither on 10.6.1

I couldn't get it to work on my Windows XP SP2 computer at work. I get a code 10.
Guys, don't forget to use search! I've seen these issues brought up in at least 3 or 4 threads, and tons of posts.

If you're running windows XP the driver isn't included on your computer. Some people have installed HTC Sync to get the drivers, personally I got them from this post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=445436
I can confirm that the driver from that post works, I am using tethering with my laptop right now to write this post!

The search doesnt always give you what your lookin for if you dont word it a certain way man................
I think im gonna need a step by step.... I got the file... the computer recognizes the device.... But it doesn't register as a connection....
To everyone that is having problems tethering:
I was having the same issues. At first I wasn't able to get it to install, and then it would just keep saying the device couldn't start.
i found a very simple solution. I went into device manager, uninstalled all of my usb ports, and restarted my computer.
When it restarted, it automatically installed the usb drivers, and the tethering has worked ever since.
I could not get this to work either, finally after 3 days of messing with this on my work pc, I got it to work. First download htc sync from here http://www.htc.com/uk/SupportViewNews.aspx?dl_id=631&news_id=270 then unzip and install to your pc. Next tick on the option to usb tether while the phone is plugged in. It will say found Android phone Sdk or something like that. I did this on my xp pc at work that had no htc drivers previously installed. Next I went to my device manager and under network adapters you will see the yellow exclamation point, right click on that and update driver, 1st install from a specific location, 2nd Don't search I will choose driver to install. 3rd Have disk, 4th browse to C/program files/htc/htc driver/driver files/xp_86x then hit open and click ok. It might give a "stop warning" ignore it and continue. When its done installing you should be ready to go.....

I'm so frustrated with this whole process. I've done every step you've outlined, and I still get a code 10 - cannot start the driver. And I still don't have USB tethering. What am I doing wrong?

That's your problem then. Yeah update to sp3 and you will be good. I promise.
I'm running into the same tethering trouble, but appear to meet all the criteria mentioned in this thread and other threads i've come across. the bottom line is i can connect with ADB access and mount my phone's SD card via the usb connection, but tethering doesn't work under several versions of Cyanogen on my laptop. currently I have CM 4.2.12.2 on my rooted Dream. I have windows SP3 installed (installed it twice because problem persisted). I've uninstalled all the USB ports per an above post, rebooted and plugged my phone in. The laptop reinstalls the USB ports, and finds the phone as an "ADB Interface" named "HTC Dream Composite ADB Interface". I can update the drivers with the google SDK USB drivers which makes the device an "Android Phone" named "Android Composite ADB Interface" instead. With either set of drivers installed, once I go to Settings on my phone and enable tethering, the device under windows goes away and instead i get yellow question mark "Other Devices" named Android Phone. I can try to force it to use the same USB drivers but it won't install them.
With tethering turned off, i can successfully type "adp devices" on my laptop console and see that my phone is there. once i turn tethering on, the same command shows no devices.
The Dream works with tethering just fine on my windows pc and shows up as a "Network adapter" named "Windows Mobile-based Internet Sharing Device".
My laptop is a compac presario in case that matters. what do i need to do on it to make tethering work?
just found the solution. a lot of posts were talking about installing microsoft active sync. sounded pointless considering it's an android phone, but it ends up being that the drivers for "windows mobile-based internet sharing device" are part of the active sync installation. i installed active sync, plugged in my phone, enabled tethering and then the laptop installed the correct drivers and it all worked without a hitch. hope this helps others!

windows 7 usb help

First off sorry I'm sure flammage is coming but I've looked and looked through google and through xda my last ditch effort is to make a post.
I can not get windows 7 to recognize my I've downloaded the latest SDK with usb drivers but each time I try and update drivers I get "windows has determined he driver software for your device is update. Please help me
Go look for the PDANet drivers. You may have to actually install PDANet, but it's painless. Install those drivers, and adb will work for you.
This is mentioned in various stickies and other guides around the board.
This option didn't work please help pda install but didn't overwrite the driver
You need to reboot and hit f8 I believe, then choose the option to allow installation of unsigned drivers. Then try to reinstall the drivers when you boot
Download an application called "USBdeview", which will let you view/modify the drivers for all devices regardless of whether they're attached or not. Find all the drivers related to Android, HTC, NexusOne, and adb, and delete them. Then install pdanet, and don't connect your phone until it instructs you to.
Windows 7 does not allow the installation of unsigned drivers unless the option is disabled on boot

I'm 95% sure that's only for the 64-bit version of Windows - Vista had the same requirement.
There are ways around it, such as using the Driver Signature Enforcement Overrider application (DSEO), or just manually configuring your computer to run in test/debugging mode.
At any rate, I don't think that you should have any issues with the PDANet drivers, as I installed them on my Win 7 Pro x64 OS before I had disabled driver signing (I did that later to screw with some homemade video drivers).
More detailed instructions on getting the drivers working are available here.

DSEO is a pretty nifty utility for sure. Provides easy one-click (okay, a few clicks, actually) access to disabling the driver signature enforcement - and even an easy way to eliminate the "Test Mode" watermark that would appear in the bottom-right of the desktop while operating in Test Mode.
There are other methods to bypass the signature enforcement without turning on Test Mode, but I've found that to be the best option. Other approaches use a boot-time hook to basically insert the F8 (and other keys as appropriate - down, down, enter or something like that) keystrokes to "automanually" disable driver signature enforcement for that boot. Any third-party application that accesses things that early in the boot process makes me a bit nervous!
