I'm not quite sure this is the appropriate place to post, so forgive me if it isn't.
I remember some time ago, when still on my magician, that somebody had made a program so that, when connected to a pc via USB, the phone would be seen as a usb pen drive, directly accessing the sd card. I also remember it was only for WM5.
But I switched to Trinity, so now I'm looking for it through all of the forum: I hate to be the lazy b*stard, but I've been searching for the past hour to no avail: every time I key in usb, half of the threads in the forum show up, obviously...
So anybody remember what it's called?
Thanks for any help or indication
WM5Storage
After install you must goto settings> Comunications> USB to PC and uncheck that setting for WM5Storage to work properly. Hope this helps.
Thanks a lot for the quick answer you guys - you're simply great!

Just give me a error... "failed to disable RNDIS to use Serial"
you might need to shut down any background apps that are running. I had WisBar advance running when I tryed and it would not even bring up the screen. When I shut Wisbar down i was able to change the setting. could be a background app or today plugin that is interfering with it.

I think it's probably AvtiveSync, which is almost always runnig in the background, that is causing the error when you uncheck the USB>PC setting.

I solved this problem by deleting (temporary) my com connection to my bluetooth device (GPS).
DHCP client and RNDIS versus USB connection
As i tweak so much over time on my system, my DHCP client was turned off.
That's why my RNDIS device could not connect.
Through my local PC it needed to connect to the network DHCP server. CE seems to do this through XP's DHCP client services.
Turning these services on created the "advanced network connection" to work.
Big advantage to connect like this instead of turning off the RNDIS module and connect through 'normal' USB, is that my PC will now recodnize and automaticaly change from my private phone to my work phone (WM6.0 and WM6.1)
Network capability of my phone is achieved by having the right ip address in the 'external NDIS module' (networkcards). I had to do this manualy. Don't know why but; hey... Without network, still all Active sync options can be used, like installing or removing software, opening the mobile registry etc.
So: 6.1 can turn off the advanced network capability. My 6.0 with a lot of tools cannot.
But They both work better with my PC if I leave it turned on and turn on the DHCP client of my local PC.!
I hope this helps. It was a lovely solution after 5 hours of reading threads.

Hi all,
I've searched the entire forum several times, but i cant find any solution for this so i would like some tips on how to fix this problem
First off, Activesync is working just fine, thats not the problem. But i would like to be able to update weather info and quickgps for instance by simply using activesync with the USB cable. All i get is a simple error "Can't connect".
my PC is a Xp x64 system, HTC has the original dutch rom installed.
please gimme some tips
You have to have Advanced Connectivity (or something like that) enabled in the USB to PC connection settings...
I have the same problem. When you don't have 3G connexion create internet work fine on USB.
But when you specify the network 3G for application which access to internet this does not work.
I need help to ! how to specify when 3G is not avaible (ActiveSync USB) use the work network for internet ?
You have to have Advanced Connectivity (or something like that) enabled in the USB to PC connection settings...

No it should be DISABLED to make it work, when enabled you will not be able to activesync when connected via usb. That was the problem here for me.

Alot of people are having problems making the switch to vista, i created this thread to help out making the move easier and help solve some compatability issues, as currently they aren't very easy to find all in one place. This thread is a depository for vista how-to's and fixes. I will continue to updates it as i find problems and solutions.
-----MY KAISER ISN"T BEING READ BY WINDOWS VISTA!!!!!-----
If your kaiser isn't being read by windows vista there is a pretty simple solution, you just need to disable advanced networking on your kaiser. To do this go to:
START----SETTINGS---CONNECTIONS---USB TO PC---UNCHECK THE BOX
After you do this your computer should greet you like r2d2 and install drivers and then connect to WMDC.
If you have further problems try swapping usb cords or using a different usb port (you have to connect via usb for the first time.)
------Using your device as a modem--------
WARNING tethering your devise is usually in violation of your contract, you will be able to use your phone as a modem but if you start using "excessive" amounts of data you could get in some trouble.
This is also a simple fix and requires only that you use the program "internet share" on your kaiser. (if you don't have it you can get it here thanks to ericc191) download the file and unzip the two items in it and place them in the windows directory. You can then create a shortcut and place in Windows>Start Menu>Programs.
Run the program and then select the type of connection you would like to use, bluetooth or usb. if you use bluetooth you will need to set up a partnership before hand. Personally i recommend usb because it is more secure won't kill your battery because it is plugged in and charging. Choose the internet service you would like to connect to and then push "connect" (left soft button.) Vista should automatically install the modem driver connect to your phone AS A MODEM. You will not be able to transfer file at this point as vista is recognising your phone as a modem, not as a windows mobile devise. you will not be connected to windows mobile devise center(WMDC.)
----I can't read my files or set up my device!----
Is your device connecting to WMDC? if not read "my kaiser isn't being read by windows vista." If your device is connected make sure you have disabled programs such as "MY MOBILER" as they do not react the same way as they do with active sync.
----Flashing in vista is here!!!
I take no credit for this, A big thanks to MrVanx as he made this tutorial possible!
One problem with windows VISTA is that it uses the new "Windows Mobile Device Centre" and not activesync which we are used to, thus our standard RUU programs will not upgrade our Hermes devices as in windows XP. This guide will show you how to configure VISTA to work just the same as XP with our RUU programs.
NOTE: PLease Download the latest version of WMDC before attempting this.
You will need winrar to extract the files
First of all you will need one of these drivers depending on your version of Vista:
Windows Vista x32 Usb Driver
Windows Vista x64 Usb Driver
NOTE TO x64 WINDOWS USERS, you will need to boot up with driver signing enforcement turned off. To accomplish this, you will need to press F8 during boot up. If you do not do this, the 64 bit drivers will not install properly and this tutorial will not be of any use to you.
And of course you will need the Vista RUU
Extract the contents to a folder on your desktop, call this folder "AS_DRIVERS". It contains the drivers from activesync which we will use instead of the native VISTA WMDC drivers when the device is in bootloader.
1.Now you must enter the bootloader on your device, to do this press and hold both the side ok button and the power button then put your stylus into the hole on the bottom of the device, your device will reset and show the red blue green bootloader screen. LEAVE THE DEVICE IN BOOTLOADER MODE and connect it using the USB cable to your VISTA PC.
2.Now navigate into the WMDC (Start>All Programs>Windows Mobile Device Center) and click on the "connection settings" menu icon.
3.In the connection settings menu untick "allow USB connections" then press OK.
4.Now exit the WMDC and return to the desktop, go into the start menu and type "Services", this will take you into the local services dialogue and show a list of all services either running or registered with your pc.
5.Scroll down the list and make sure these services are present:
Windows Mobile-based connectivity
Windows Mobile 2003-based connectivity
If these services are not started then double click each one and set them to Automatic start by clicking the "startup-type" drop-down menu and selecting automatic then click the start button in the same window, apply the setting by pressing OK. Now return back to the desktop again.
6.Go into the start menu and type "Device Manager" then run, this will take you into the device manager. Click the "+" symbol next to "Mobile Devices" and double click on "HTC USB Sync".
This will bring up the properties of the currently connected device (the Kaiser in bootloader).
7.Go to the "Driver" tab and click "Update Driver".
8.Click "Browse My Computer for Driver Software".
9.Select "Let me pick from a list...."
10.Click the "Have Disk" button.
11.Click "Browse" and navigate to the AS_DRIVERS folder we created earlier.
12.
Vista x32 users select the file "wceusbsh.inf"
Vista x64 users select the file "wceusbshx64.inf"
Click open.
13.click next and the driver will be installed (wait a moment).
14.Press close and escape back to the desktop now.
Now we must stop the WMDC process, start the task manager by pressing Ctrl+Shift+Escape.
Click the WMDC line and click "End Process". In the confirmation window, again press End Process.
Now re-enter the WMDC and re-enable USB connections (click connection settings and tick the box "enable USB connections").
Your RUU programs for HardSPL/Radios/WM6 ROMs should now run as desired once you are synced with WMDC. Since we have updated the driver which Vista uses when the device is in bootloader mode.
NOTE:: This technique is still in testing! It has been proven to work though!
The Vista Version of MTTY can be downloaded from dave daveshaw's site (http://taeguk.co.uk/xda)

Did installing vista 32bit drivers help anyone?
I had this problem before but not anymore as I am using a shorter usb cable that was used to power portable hard drive and now it connects every time and charges phone faster.

vista 32 bit driver is actually the driver from active sync, they should allow flashing, they won't necessarilly "help" with anything beyond that... does that answer your question?
The Vista Version of MTTY can be downloaded from my site (http://taeguk.co.uk/xda) - it's not my work, I just keep a mirror.

Well... It's good BUT i never had any problems with Vista really! More with Xp than with Vista! At least with Original Rom and Mobile device manager, no problems, everything works perfectly!

If Advanced Networking is disabled on the phone, the next thing to check is that the latest version of WMDC is downloaded and installed on the Vista PC (and reboot after that before plugging in the phone just to be on the safe side). Yes the last step is on the previous page but you may have missed it....

Hi
Same problem here on my laptop
LG Optimus 7

I have install reinstall couple of times.. No luck...
But on my other computer with Windows 7 x32 is working fine..
Hope we find a solution
I had this issue and found that the problem was because I was running a Zune applet for my G15 keyboard. The applet required a different .exe file to load, so I switched back to my original and everything worked fine.
Hope this might help someone.

Solution found for Zune Error
Hello everyone
the solution I found in Microsoft Support is:
windows Buttons ==> Run
enter certmgr.msc
go to personel => certificate; then look for a certificate contain zune, delete it, the disconnect your phone and turn off zune and restart them both, you should be able to connect .
N.B; I've tried it and it works just fine..
Solution found for Zune Error
here is the MS kb 2468307
Quote for the kb:
"To resolve this issue, create a new certificate:
If it is running, close the Zune software and disconnect your phone.
Open Certificate Manager. To do this, click Start, type certmgr.msc, and press Enter.
Expand Personal, and then expand Certificates.
Click the heading for the Issued By column to sort the column, and then look for one or more certificates that is issued to "zune-tuner://windowsphone/...".
Right-click that certificate and then click Delete. Click Yes.
From the File menu, click Exit.
Start the Zune software and connect your phone to create a new certificate."
I could have sworn XP SP3 was a minimum requirement...
In fact... from their site, http://www.zune.net/en-US/products/software/download/default.htm
Clearly states
*The Zune software won't work on versions of Windows earlier than Windows XP SP3. Download Windows XP SP3.
I have this problem, I have never managed to connect with the Zune, when I go to check the certificates do not see any. Anyone know who may be "I have never been able to connect, I tried it on several pc and none have worked.
Hi all, I have had the same issue. I'm using a standard Intel i5 board with Win 7 64-bit. I have been through a number of forums and tried all suggestion to no avail. I have tried 3 different USB ports on the PC with attendent phone reboots, I have re-installed Zune 4.7 3 times now. I have deleted the personal certificate and no luck, in fact the certificate is not getting re-created. I have tried to do this with anti-virus software disabled and windows firewall turned off - no success. In addition the phone refuses to connect to my wireless network even though an Apple iPhone 3GS will, my netbook PC does as does my media centre (both running Win 7 - netbook 32 bit; media centre 64-bit). Everything I have tried so far still result in the Connection Error message coming up.
Hopefully someone out there has a solution ... it seems Microsoft don't!
Very frustrated and stuck with a next to useless phone
Password Change
Have you changed your account password? I did this and Zune no longer worked for my phone as per your symptoms.
I created a new account and Voila all detected and working again. To prove my theory, i then changed password on the new account...yes Zune no longer recognised phone.
Another account created and back up and running....maybe Zune could tell us why and the fix other than account creation!
Good Luck
I have the same problem. I am using a Macbook Pro and neither Windows 7 or OSX recognizes my phone. It used to sync fine over USB and Wifi. I have pondered resetting my phone. But I have things on there that I don't want to lose (VIDEOS). I feel kind stuck here.
What version of win7 are ybusing home,pro,ulta?
Sent from the land were pigs fly
Hello All,
I have the same issue, Mozart with DFT 7714 Mango rom. Zune is refusing to recognise the device, when I connect it, it's trying to update Zune. I f I click yes, it says the software is up to date, if I click no, it's also not recognizing the phone.
I tried to delete the certificate, did not help. Reinstalled Zune, reinstalled phone, same issues. I'd doubt it's the new rom since Zune did this before with the factory rom.
Any idead please?
thanks,
Mark
Issue has been resolved. All you need to do is to download Zune 4.8 BETA (google it) and everything works just fine.
Now I'm stuck with my Windows Live ID, though the regional settings for the WL ID is set to Hungarian and the computer I'm using the Zune is also set to Hungarian, when I try to login in Zune, it says the regional settings are not matching.
It's such a pitty that Microsoft has to do it this way, the phone is great, the OS is great but the solutions are sometimes soo annoying! I forgot what it feels like while I was on Android.
Try this All is not lost
Hi you can try this. for Connection error.
1) Start up diagnostics
OR
Call ##634# (if you dont got the diagnostic "app" in the apps homepage
2) UNPLUG IF YOU HAVE THE PHONE PLUGGED
3) with the Diagnostics Menu, press *#7284#
4) Press an option that is not Zune Sync(E.g. Micro USB or Modem)
DONT KEEP PRESSING THE OPTIONS. PRESS ONCE ON ONE OPTION ONLY AS IT SOMETIMES GETS F-ed Up.
5) Wait for the reboot when prompted
*AFTER REBOOT, REPEAT STEPS 1-3, At Step 4, press Zune Sync again this time, and Wait for REBOOT when prompted again. Tedious, but rewarding.
6) On the Zune software on your Windows, Press Settings at the top Right
7) Press Software in main-menu ---> General in sub-menu
8) UNCHECK "Start the Zune software when I connect a compatible device
9) Hit "Ok", exit Zune
10) CONNECT PHONE TO WINDOWS
11) Connect Phone, not in locked screen(dont know if it affects)
12) Start Zune Software.
BOOM ***** YOUR DONE!
Better solution than creating new account

Thanks a lot man, it finally resolved my problem once and for all!!!!
I use my Lumia 920 as my main communications device with unlimited internet/tethering from my provider. The Wifi internet sharing feature works fine but is a HUGE drain on the battery. Plus I have concerns about the safety of wifi!
Ideally I wanted to tether to my computer using USB but there doesn't seem to be a lot of information about regarding this with WP8.
Has anyone found a way to do this? Have I been missing something obvious?
I would recommend against using your phone as a router, it will simply die a lot faster due to high hardware stress.

WP8 should be similar.

Thanks for the link, unfortunately, this doesn't work on either the Lumia 900 or 920. Nokia don't seem to have built the option the same as Samsung.
As for the hardware stress, thankfully in the UK we get a 2 year warranty! It'll be up to Nokia to repair/replace if my phone dies using one of the built in features
For the record, wired tethering does work on the Samsung Ativ S. The trick was finding the drivers for my 64-bit PC.
First, you need the Diagnosis app for Samsung phones. This is included, but hidden, on each phone. To access it, type ##634# (##MFG#) into the phone dialer. After it's run once, you can launch it from the Apps list like normal.
Next, to access the USB control, type *#7284# in the numpad that the app displays.
Select "QC RmNetComposite" from the USB Path Control radio button options. This will take the phone out of its default MTP (Media Transfer Protocol) mode, and make it act as a Qualcomm USB modem. The phone will need to reboot when you select this option; let it do so.
When the phone boots up again, it will not appear in Windows Explorer or the Windows Phone app. You'll get a "Found new hardware" notification, but the odds are that the drivers will fail to install automatically. We'll need to install them manually.
To do that, first download the attached ZIP file included with this post. Extract its contents somewhere handy.
Next, open Device Manager. This can be done from the Start menu/screen, or by opening Computer Management, or by typing "devmgr.msc" into Start search or the Run dialog and then hitting Enter. It will require Administrator permissions.
You should see four "Qualcomm composite device" entries that don't have drivers. We only need two, maybe even one, of them. It's possible to tell them apart, but for simplicity's sake I'm just going to tell you to do the next steps for each of them.
Double-click one of those entries, or right-click on it, and select Update Driver.
Choose the "Browse" option, and navigate to the folder you extracted from the ZIP file. You don't have to go any deeper, so long as the "Include Subfolders" option is checked.
Hit Next and, if a warning pops up about unsigned drivers, choose to install anyhow. There is actually a signature; the drivers will work on 64-bit Windows. I don't know what that complaint is about. If it just says that it couldn't find a driver, that's fine; that's one of the two devices we don't need, probably.
Once you have the Qualcomm USB Modem and (possibly) Qualcomm Diagnostics devices installed, you're ready to configure the modem in Windows. To do this, open Network and Sharing Center (or Network Connections in XP) and chose the Create new connection option.
Select a "Dial-up connection". Don't worry; it's neither as slow nor as noisy as a classic modem.
This next part is probably carrier-specific. For T-Mobile US, it was ridiculously easy: type a name for the connection (doesn't matter what), in the place for the number you dial, put "*99#" (without the quotes), and leave the password and username blank.
Try to connect! If it doesn't work, look up the WP7 settings for wired tethering to your carrier; they should be on this forum somewhere.
When you want to get back to normal (MTP) mode on the USB port, just repeat the first three steps but choose "MTP Mode" instead of "QC RmNetComposite" and let the phone reboot again.
Something which may help: I found that the PC would lose data connection while the phone used it. To make the PC's data connection more reliable, turn off data usage on the phone. The modem should still function. There are a ton of other tweaks to configure the modem driver which might also help, but for basic usage, the steps provided here work.
I recommend copying the driver bundle onto your phone (or its SD card) so that if you need to tether a PC that isn't already set up, you can get the drivers without needing Internet access. It's quite possible to copy Zip files to and from the phone via MTP mode.

The modem should still function. There are a ton of other tweaks to configure the modem driver which might also help, but for basic usage, the steps provided here work.
I recommend copying the driver bundle onto your phone (or its SD card) so that if you need to tether a PC that isn't already set up, you can get the drivers without needing Internet access. It's quite possible to copy Zip files to and from the phone via MTP mode.

my htc 8x dosent work with these code ##634# work but *#7284# doesnt work
these drivers don't seem to work for windows 8.1. Any idea where to get them?
No, sorry. It took me hours of searching to find them for Win7. They should, in theory, be pretty standard drivers; you could maybe find ones that work for an Android phone with the same Qualcomm USB modem and tweak the INF file to get them to install for the Windows phone. I don't have an easy solution, though.
The USB tethering code (*#7284#) doesn't work on my Sprint Atic S Neo. Is this a known issue on the Sprint version of this phone?
For some reason Windows 8 x64 doesn't like these drivers. It complains there isn't a hash for the file. I guess back to test-signing mode....
Diag codes

For the record, wired tethering does work on the Samsung Ativ S. The trick was finding the drivers for my 64-bit PC.
First, you need the Diagnosis app for Samsung phones. This is included, but hidden, on each phone. To access it, type ##634# (##MFG#) into the phone dialer. After it's run once, you can launch it from the Apps list like normal.

Thanks for the drivers
I found it interesting that additional features appeared in Ativ S T899M after diags turned on (##MFG# replies with Odyssey_121205 on diagnostics page) EXCEPT the ability to gain better control of APNs.
With my Ativ S (T899M again) the #7284# does nothing when entered into the diagnostic app.
I was wondering if there is a decent listing of all (or at least some) of the diagnostic codes.
whoops!

WHOOPS!
Missed the star in front of the hash when I entered the command. Should have been *#7284# which works just fine. Should have done more than copy and paste.
also found the complete listing by W_O_L_F ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2311626 )

There's even more things hidden in there that's available by using the native toast launcher in the hacking forum.
I have a Sprint ATIV S Neo and *#7284# does nothing.
However...
##3424# takes me to the proper screen (Micro USB Test).
Still haven't found drivers for 8.1 yet though...
You'll need to use the Native toast launcher to bring it up.

First, you need the Diagnosis app for Samsung phones. This is included, but hidden, on each phone. To access it, type ##634# (##MFG#) into the phone dialer. After it's run once, you can launch it from the Apps list like normal.
Next, to access the USB control, type *#7284# in the numpad that the app displays.
Select "QC RmNetComposite" from the USB Path Control radio button options. This will take the phone out of its default MTP (Media Transfer Protocol) mode, and make it act as a Qualcomm USB modem. The phone will need to reboot when you select this option; let it do so.
When the phone boots up again, it will not appear in Windows Explorer or the Windows Phone app. You'll get a "Found new hardware" notification, but the odds are that the drivers will fail to install automatically. We'll need to install them manually.
To do that, first download the attached ZIP file included with this post. Extract its contents somewhere handy.
Next, open Device Manager. This can be done from the Start menu/screen, or by opening Computer Management, or by typing "devmgr.msc" into Start search or the Run dialog and then hitting Enter. It will require Administrator permissions.
You should see four "Qualcomm composite device" entries that don't have drivers. We only need two, maybe even one, of them. It's possible to tell them apart, but for simplicity's sake I'm just going to tell you to do the next steps for each of them.
Double-click one of those entries, or right-click on it, and select Update Driver.
Choose the "Browse" option, and navigate to the folder you extracted from the ZIP file. You don't have to go any deeper, so long as the "Include Subfolders" option is checked.
Hit Next and, if a warning pops up about unsigned drivers, choose to install anyhow. There is actually a signature; the drivers will work on 64-bit Windows. I don't know what that complaint is about. If it just says that it couldn't find a driver, that's fine; that's one of the two devices we don't need, probably.
Once you have the Qualcomm USB Modem and (possibly) Qualcomm Diagnostics devices installed, you're ready to configure the modem in Windows. To do this, open Network and Sharing Center (or Network Connections in XP) and chose the Create new connection option.
Select a "Dial-up connection". Don't worry; it's neither as slow nor as noisy as a classic modem.
This next part is probably carrier-specific. For T-Mobile US, it was ridiculously easy: type a name for the connection (doesn't matter what), in the place for the number you dial, put "*99#" (without the quotes), and leave the password and username blank.
Try to connect! If it doesn't work, look up the WP7 settings for wired tethering to your carrier; they should be on this forum somewhere.
When you want to get back to normal (MTP) mode on the USB port, just repeat the first three steps but choose "MTP Mode" instead of "QC RmNetComposite" and let the phone reboot again.

Hi everyone, especially the writer of the quoted post, i know this is a old post but i just want to tell how to install the driver on Windows 8.1 64 bit in case if someone ended up here.
Windows 8.1 64 bit won't allow users to install unsigned driver like the driver he attached (Actually, the driver is signed, but i forget the reason why windows recognize it as unsigned driver. Please refer to the previous post). So, to make windows allow that, use this instruction:
http*://www*.howtogeek.*com/167723/how-to-disable-driver-signature-verification-on-64-bit-windows-8.1-so-that-you-can-install-unsigned-drivers/
nb: remove the star. i'm new here, so i can't post a link.
After you follow the instruction, then install the driver as the guy described.
I've tried this method, and it's work!

Pearlian,
How did you find this driver?
I am looking for an modem driver for HTC One (M8) and would appreciated if you can point me in the right direction for my Search.
