Unable to Sync using Serial Cable - 8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General

guys, I know your good in these things. WAY TOO GOOD. I would really like to learn some things in the process of staying here in your forum. It's my first time here to post I hope I won't insult any of you.
The prob is, I can't sync with my serial cable. with this, I am unable to upgrade my ROM. I tried upgrading my rom using an infra connection but it was no good.
I tried analyzing what could be the problem. I tested my own skills before seeking any professional help.
any help?
It will be well appreciated if you do. thanks.

Bad!! Very, very bad!!! Don't do that again! Didn't you read the part where it says put your iMate in the cradle and be sure it is connected to power? Part of the process of flashing the ROM is to remove the existing one....Whooops! Where did my Bluetooth go?.....Bad!! Very, very bad!!! Don't do that again!
As punishment you must read this entire thread. http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=3687. You're luck though, you should know how to fix your problem by the end.

When i connect with hiperterminal i see.....
+SA_USB_Init
-SA_USB_Init
But i dont see any prompt. What can i do? thanks
I also had the same problem, I did read the instructions but my sync cradel was also at work and not with me, So i tried to update over bluetooth, Mine also died, and hard resets did nothing.
But at work the next day i was lucky, i managed to connect as a guest in activesynce with the usb cradel and just run the rom upgrade, i think i was very lucky as only after fixing it did i bother to read the posts you were advided to read.
good luck

My Trinity and Mac hate eachother...

Hey guys,
Any thoughts on the following problem:
My european HTC P3600 wont pair with either my MacBook or MacPro running MissingSync version 4...
I`ve tried both with USB cable and Bluetooth... the only thing left is to use some tinfoil between the phone and the freakin` power outlet of my two macs...
If anyone has ANY thoughts surrounding this strange lapse of communication between these two really great products, I would love to hear them. Expriences, tricks and encouragement is greatly appreciated!
Thanks and have a great night!

p.s. Just some technical info for those who wonder: Running OS X tiger now... the phone was usually synced up with a Windows XP workstation via ActiveSync, and has not been tampered with after the jump over to a new MacPro workstation. Therefore an idea would maybe be to reinstall the os on the phone? Maybe? Anyways.
Same here, unable to sync between Trinity and Mac using missing sync. Try PocketMac Pro because of their promotion. But only with intermittent success.
Most of the time unable to find the device.
Is the option in "Start>Settings>Connections>USB to PC" marked as enable (advanced network functionality)??
If yes, disable and try again.
M.a.s - Thank You!!
That cleared it ALL up! Thank you so much!! Have a great weekend!

Glad to know..
Great weekend for you too!

Using activesync without a cradle

Hello
I'm looking for some help and advice with a problem I have with an i-mate xda2 and trying to communicate with my desktop using windows xp. Like many other owners of the xda2 the bottom connector has become completely disconnected and as a result I have been trying to set up using Activesync over Biuetooth. I have followed various tutorials on how to make this connection without sucess. I recently did a hard reset on the xda2(WM2005) and now find I do not have the options for setting up Bluetooth that I had before the hard reset-for example I cannot select serial port option-I just have the hands-free option! It may be that I need to use the cradle/USB connection before I can set up activesync over Bluetooth.
Note -the desktop and xda2 recognise each other but not using activesync.
Any comments/advice would be appreciated.
Regards
lent

That link might help you.
However, I thought they had disabled wireless access completely with Activesync as a security measure?
Anyway, someone can correct me if I am wrong. I have never done it over bluetooth personally.
Hope this helps.
Thanks for your reply but I'm afraid it did not help. I think my problem stems from the fact that I did a hard reset after the usb cable socket on my PPC broke off and this is stopping me getting the correct Bluetooth settings.

how would you unlock this wizard (only experts)

im trying to unlock this wizard but there is one problem
it wont sync, it only charges (i´ve seen other wizards with the same issue) there's in fact another thread and i have already posted there.
it wont sync over bluetooth because the first sync has to be with cable.
im out of ideas, maybe someone can help me out.
thanks for any help.
i know in ebay some people sell the unlock codes, but as you can tell by my english im from mexico and things are not OK at the moment.
maybe there is an app that can calculate the codes or maybe other alternative
You must have active sync version 4.5. If you have older - update.
Or to check usb cable.
Actually I have a solution for your problem, but I'm no expert, so that leaves me out of the thread.
Bye.
I shall declare myself an expert, so that at least someone gets help (regardless whether I am, in fact, an expert or not). hmotwr's response is the kind of thing that gets users banned...just saying.
Syncing is not an unlock problem. It might be a problem that you already have two accounts in your phone, and you need to delete one of them. It could be that you're using a Vista computer (known problem). It could be that your version of WM5 is corrupted. It could be that your Wizard's microUSB connector is broken.
I suspect the solution that hmotwr is withholding is the legendary "Flash from an SD card" which has seen lots of thread activity, but very few successes. Here is a possible answer: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=293387
Don't be afraid to use the site's search engine, it's not bad. Search engines are your friends. Get to know them, and love them.

yes the problem is the mini-usb port, didnt know that flashing was possible via SD card, i've been out of this forum for awhile (not totally im in the shift and the fuze forum)
thanks for the link, will see if it can help me out and will let you know.
activesync is out of the question since i've been able to sync via bluetooth AFTER the first sync with cable (with other phones).
thanks once again.
to all the others.....
when i wrote "only exprets" i didnt mean it in a offensive way i just wanted to get ideas and not the classical "check the cable" "try a different computer" "different version of acticvesync" because all of that has already been done, but i apologize if it was taken in a wrong way.
i appreciate all the help.

[q] my fascinate will not connect to my pc

Okay so I am running windows 7 64bit and have the drivers for my phone and have read many threads and done everything I have read to the T its getting really frustrating and I am so annoyed I need help I never had this much problem with my Droid and I can't clockworkdmod recovery to work either I am rooted and have tried flashing it even done it twice in a row but nothing has worked to get it on there so I wanna try the Odin approach but I need to connect it to my comp first
Thank you for any help and I hope you guys can suggest a solution that will make this my favorite device
What is the error message you get?
may or may not help , but i was going crazy the other day because my windows 7 wouldnt read mine either. then i realized i was using the cable from my droid x . it fit , and it charged it , but for whatever reason would not relay data.
Make sure its the one for that phone . not for another or one from walmart. helped me at least .

What exactly is going on when you plug in your phone?
You need to odin or redbend to install the hacked recovery for clockwork to work.

on the computer it says all the drivers are installed but when i connect the usb it says that no device is attached and its the cable that came with the box now something i just thought of is this is my third fascinate from verizon i was having issues with the hearing people and finally got one that worked and i connected and rooted both of those devices on this comp could it be that it wont read this one because it wants to read one of the previous devices if so how would i go about fixing that...thanks for all your help guy i really appreciate it i feel like a noob again coming from my flash happy days with my droid...and i wasn't trying to be sarcastic about the cord cause i thought of that too i just reread this and wanted to make sure i am showing gratitude and not seeming like an a**hole so thank u
i figured it out
i was using the same cable from my old fascinate with my new one and it wasnt detecting it on the comp so i got a usb from another on used it and worked like a champ i got clockwork woot woot thank u all
I am having a similar issue suddenly. My original cable began having intermittant connection problems while charging right after I spent 3 days charging my phone from my laptop due to a massive power outage. I recalibrated my battery stats but the physical connection from the cable is flaky during charging and now during data too. My laptop sees it as drive e but it wont let me access it, it tells me to insert a disk into drive e, however pdanet works fine. I did perform the hack to reprogram the 3g hotspot app to bypass the dun setting prior to this happening. Did qpst change something else or did mess something up? Any help is greatly appreciated.
Update: The intermittant connection from the cable seems to have corrupted the USB mass storage driver. Had to uninstall/reinstall it & everything worked. BTW the vzw store replaced my cable with a Motorola micro-usb and it works great; the plug end is about 1mm longer and it fits in the socket much better.
