There were two profiles so I put it in both. It weird, but when I put the file into the first profile, the icon shows the Omnia in the folder. When I put it in the other one, it reverts back to the standard picture. So I tried just deleting the standard picture, but then nothing shows up when I open WMDC. I put the picture back and it stills shows as Omnia when not connected, then standard pic when connected.

Might want to delete all partnerships, remove the profile folders and create a new one.

Already tried that. Same thing happens. Old icon when plugged in, omnia picture when unplugged. I can not figure this out for the like of me.

Ok, try this then. Drop the sync.ico into the profile folder, then before syncing again, place it in the \Windows directory of your Omnia. Then try syncing again. Thats what I did originally, but figured it wasn't needed. Perhaps it is.

Now I don't use Vista for syncing, so I may not know what I am talking about here (believe me....I'm used to THAT) but what if you deleted all relationships on the PC + PPC, did the tweak Adrynalyne posted, and sync/renew relationships, thereby starting EVERYTHING anew.

Or maybe an uninstall / re-install the syncing app onto the PC + doing the tweak before the initial sync.

Think that may work?

I just stumbled upon the coolest thing ever.

I can edit my registry with CeRegeditor via Bluetooth!


Very cool.

Wow. That is a pretty cool find. I tell you, I am very happy with the CERegEditor and all of the functions it has.

[Adrynalyne]

I am too. Surprising it is free.

You don't have to delete your partnership. You have to put the icon in your windows folder on the phone and then plug it in to the computer, let it sync and then delete the driver out of device manager. Unplug, and replug. That's how it worked on my xv6800. Haven't tried it on the omnia yet. Hope that helps.

Now I am 100% completely satisfied with it. I was able to fix my unhandled exception errors with it by running it as admin in Vista.
