Mighty Rom 5 and Windows Mobile Device Center Error

shorty82 · #1 (**permalink**) 05-11-2009, 02:29 PM

I just flashed to Mighty Rom 5 last night and I am having an error with wmdc "there is a problem with your connection...." as can also be found in post 1 http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread...highlight=wmdc. I have searched all over trying to find a solution, but every post I find with similar problems never lists a resolution. I am off work today, but I have to have my phone working before work tomorrow or else I am going to have some serious problems. I can use wmdc as guest to install and browse phone but I can't set up sync profile to download my tasks, contacts, and notes. If anyone has some ideas please let me know. Thanks.

do you have Microsoft Office installed? Part of Office is Microsoft Outlook, which is needed for syncing those items.

Ok, obvious question first - did you turn off the enhanced USB mode?

Second, you didn't set the TP to Disk Drive mode with 'don't ask this again' checked, did ya?

lol, thanks but no to both of them. I have been using wm for the last 4 years, and I know that there is still alot to learn but I have tried almost everything I could think of.

I also went into the device manager and deleted the drivers to they would be auto added. Didn't work.

I also uninstalled wmdc, cleaned the registry, rebooted, and reinstalled. Didn't work.

For good measure I also flashed the ROM several times and I also hard reset a couple times before I started installing all my programs and stuff to avoid as problems such as this.

DAMN this sucks.... lol I really like this ROM if I could just get it to sync, but this is a deal breaker for me.

Note: I caan use Windows Mobile Device Center as guest to install programs and explore the files usign my PC. I just can't set up a profile, so I can't sync all my data.

Have you tried a different USB port? That's worked for me in the past with other mobile devices. You can also try this list of troubleshooting tips from Microsoft: http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobi...eshooting.mspx

I don't think it's a Mighty ROM specific problem anymore because I still can't sync now that I flashed back to the sprint ROM and a few others. I'm going to be posting in http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=66672&page=6 now because it's a non ROM specific WMDC error thread. Thanks for all of the help.
