Do you have Microsoft Activesync(for XP) or WMDC(for Vista) installed? When you plug your phone in, are you choosing Activesync on the menu that pops up on your phone? If so, try going to Start-Settings-Connections-USB to PC, and uncheck the box under Activesync.

i have activesync installed; the box is unchecked as well....it comes up saying the device is not detected. come 2 and infrared port not installed and com 4 not available; i had my phone connected earlier today too; thats what i dont understand

i just checked the box ; ok'd it; and then went back to it and unchecked it.the connections settings on active sync say its connected but the main active sync box with the spinning arrows says its not connected

Try rebooting computer and phone. If that doesn't work then check that box instead of having it unchecked. If that doesn't work, try a different usb port.

You're welcome.
The term UNLOCKING means different things for every device. For the touch pro, it just means that you can now flash any of the custom roms and radios for the CDMA Touch Pro, which are listed in the upgrade forum here http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/forumdisplay.php?f=68

You only have to relock it if you have to return it, so yea, just leave it unlocked.

Quick question...when bringing a phone back to store for fix/replacement, what should/should not be on it? I know I need to relock it, but do I need to put the original ROM back on it? There is no OEM stock ROM on vzw.com so will one that I find here at PPCGeeks or XDA work?

Just wanted to know if anyone had a quick word on how the phone should be brought back.

Thanks in advance,

eGG

Yea, you need to have the stock rom and radio back on it and relock it. Flashing the shipped rom will flash the stock rom and radio, and sometimes relock it, so check to see after if you still need to run the relocker.
You can get the shipped verizon stock rom here. (It says pre-release, but it's the one that the phone came with) http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=42741

I too need to get my phone fixed under warranty. I just reflashed and I believe it's locked. Here's what the bootloader screen reads:

Security Unlocked

RAPH500
SPL-0.35.0000
MicroP-Raph (LED) v8182
MicroP-Raph (Key) v0682
PSOC-Raph STAGE_EVT v20

Serial


I'm concerned simply because the top part says "Security Unlocked" It's still locked though isn't it? I want to make sure I don't needlessly lose the warranty. Thanks for the help!
