1. Click Start, click Run, type cmd.exe, and then press ENTER.
2. Type set devmgr_show_nonpresent_devices=1, and then press ENTER.
3. Type Start DEVMGMT.MSC, and then press ENTER.
4. Click View, and then click Show Hidden Devices.
5. Expand all trees one at a time and do the following.
6. Right-click the all dimmed devices, and then click Uninstall.

The unrecognized USB device error came up again on me. Out of the blue. I tried the above (however on point 6, I only uninstalled the "unknown USB" devices, not every type of greyed out device.)

USB device recognised now ... weird ! But at least its a windows XP problem, not a windows mobile problem.

Try getting activesyncmode from UTStarcomm. there are a couple ways to get it, but it will download and install with PIE. It fixes the unrecognised device error.

On the PDA, open Internet Explorer and type the address http://www.utstar.com/pcd/downloads/...yncmode.sa.cab
Select “Save As” into Storage card or Main Memory, then OK,
it will automatically install to the device
After install, Close all programs on the device
Tap Start, then select Programs, and then Active Sync Mode
Switch from RNDIS to USB, then tap OK
Close all programs then Sync with your computer.

i have found this problem as well and here is my 2 cents put the device in sleep mode first (screen black) then plug in USB cable it should work then at least it dose for me

I had this problem on a Mogul today. I tried every suggestion listed in this thread, and none worked. I uninstalled/reinstalled Active Sync 4.5 to no avail.

What fixed it? I moved the USB cable to a different port. XP found new hardware, and Active Sync wanted to set up a new partnership. I deleted the existing partnership on device and PC, then set up new partnership. All is well.

I would try deleting the existing partnership in Active Sync (and on the device.) After you do that, it should prompt you to create a new partnership once you connect.

True, I had to do the same thing when I cooked my first ROM with the kitchen since it changed my device ID. Deleted the existing, reconnected and it syncs just fine.

I have never ran into an issue like that before.. I use active sync w/ Win XP Pro. Currently using Helmi's WM6 as well.
