Hello,
a friend of mine got his new Qtek 8500. He first installed the latest ActiveSync 4.2, then connected the Qtek with the provided cable to his notebook. Charging started, as expected.
However, nothing else happens. Device Manager can't find anything new, of course ActiveSync does not find the phone.
Tried already different USB ports, still the same. Charging yes, ActiveSync no.
Am I missing something? Like enabling USB on the phone?
8500 - not recognized
I had the same issue and was able to correct it by downloading and installng ActiveSync 4.5 Beta - http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/activesync/default.mspx
Hope that works for you also

Make sure all your firewall are off as well...
Try to turn off Spyware and Antivirus programs. It helped for me
A problem - activesync and qtek 8500
Yesterday I got my qtek. I immediately wanted to synch all my contacts, it didn't work however. The phone established only a guest relationship. Reinstall didn't help at all, neiter did a hard reset.
After about 4 hours of looking for a solution I finally found it. Its not mine but taken from
http://www.pocketpcfaq.com/faqs/t-shootactivesync.htm
- really wonderful guide to active sync problems.
The solution: (a quote)
"Check and see of the registration key at HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows CE Services and see whether a key named GuestOnly has a value of 1. If it does then change the value to 0 to allow you to setup a partnership."
after that - just one mean digit, it simply worked.
hope it helps anybody in any way

I have wm2005 on a spv m1000 (o2 xds2) running no problems, everything is great, BT, phone, activesync via cradle etc etc
big problem i have is i cannot get my contacts and calendar to sync from outlook (2003 sp1)
i keep getting error coming up, support code 85010014 with a little while exclamation mark in a red circle next to my activesync icon.
I can explore the pda but for some reason cannot sync with it... ?
please help otherwise i'll have to revert back to me 2003se....
Here's another interesting problem. I can sync perfectly in the office, but the device is not recognized at home. I've upgraded to Act Sync 4.0 and Act Sync recognizes the old PDA from my wife (only once, but it will start each time) but it doesn't recognize my WM2005. Looking in network connections using use server-assigned IP address it indicates that it is not connected. However putting the device into the cradle gives a ping on the PC. I've looked into the device manager on the PC looking for the Act Sync dll under hidden devices but couldn't find it. There was some strange sign in there which I took out, but now I get the message that Wbutton.sys is missing (maybe somebody can mail it to me) but I can't imagine that this is the reason why it won't work. I've reinstalled Act Sync a couple of times without succes. So after reading the forums for quite some time now I'm without any clue at this point and I could do with some practical advice :?
WM2005 + Outlook
Heres another for you.
I upgraded to WM2005 and activesync 4 and it would sync everything from outlook 2003 no problem then for no reason it just stopped and displays the 85010014 error. Tried reinstalling activesync removing all traces and even reflashing with a newer version of wm2005 with no luck.
I've just been playing around with exchange server and syncing my phone directly to it over wifi (bypassing pc activesync) and it worked briefly, now it comes up with an error message saying "activesync encountered a problem on the server (with a support code: 0x85010014).
Seems to me that its a problem on the phone rather than activesync on pc.
Anyone have any suggestions?

Update !!
reset xda2 back to wm2003 then went back to wm2005 and everything was fine !!!!
really weird that !, never mind, must have been an install error,
BTW :- Buzz's max ram version of wm2005 is excellent !
I have had some weird AS4 probs too, but if I temporarily disable my zonealarm firewall, it works fine every time.
yes disable windows firewall ... solved my problem (wm2005 AS4(via usb))
Same prob. here. At first had a prob. with driver. Had to install ActiveSync 4 before upgrading to WM5. ActiveSync 4 with WM2003SE works just fine. Syncing with upgraded WM5 device is a No-Go.
Am looking into it. Keep you posted!
Any help is welcome. Tim.

Same prob here with Zone Alarm, the connection isn't getting picked up as a new program for some reason so it doesn't ask for permission through the firewall.
Looking forward to a solution!
I can't revert back to WM2003 after flashed WM2K5. The HimaUpgradeUt waited too long, and then showed MODEL ID ERROR.
How can I force it to return to old 2003 version? Thanks

Just add the ip address and sub net of your xda into Zone Alarm and it will work fine. Did for me.
I recently upgraded my PDA2k to WM5 along with the new AS4.0 Beta, and recieved the same 85010014 error. I found the resolution through a thread regarding the same error code on the Internet. Typically, I choose "Work Offline" when I start Outlook. The thread directed me to connect directly to my Exchange server for the first sync. Afterwards, I was able to sync while in my typical "Work Offline" mode.
Hope this helps.
I solved my ActiveSync problem with Error 85010014.
I also run Eudora and Incredimail Plugin for Outlook on both PCs, Work and Home. Both are on XP Pro SP2 and when I installed ActiveSync 4.1 on my work PC without issue, I decided to attack my Home PC Outlook installation to see if I could resolve the issue.
So, At home:
Putting Outlook in Offline mode did not solve the problem.
I uninstalled ActiveSync 4.0 and installed ActiveSync 4.1 - No difference.
I backed up Outlook via 3rd party program to grab account settings as well as my 2GB pst file then ran Help->Detect and Repair... - reboot, no difference.
I then ran Control Panel -> Add or remove Programs -> Office 2003 and chose to modify my installation by adding or removing components. I unchecked Outlook and updated it to remove Outlook from my Office 2003 suite. Then returned to this option and re-checked Outlook to add it back to my Office 2003 Suite, CD-Rom in hand but updating, it did not ask for the Office 2003 Install CD-Rom... - Rebooted and connected - Bingo NO 85010014 error!
All,
My Hermes is able to charge via USB on the usb port of my pc, but the hermes is not seen by activesync. I tried soft aswell as hard reset, but nothing seems to cure the USB syncing....
Any suggestions?
Cheers
You may check in your desktop PC if ActiveSync got "Allow USB connections" checked. It's in File -> Communications.

Oh, so it seems to be an Hermes problem (or maybe an USB cable problem)... If it's not solved with the hard Reset it may be an hardware issue . I hope that somebody can help you better.

did you by any chance did a backup restore?
i had once or twice the same problem.
if so try another time to restore it or else with an older backup
good luck

Nope, no backup resores.....
try going to Start>Settings>Connections "USB to PC" and either check or uncheck the box
Same problem happen to my friend's dopod last a few week. I found out that activesync application was gone. Why not try to check your program folder, whether activesync shortcut still there or valid.
So I decide to reflash the roms. After that everything back to normal.
I had the same problem, what i did was to uninstall Activesync, then Reboot, Re-install ActiveSync.
It work after that.
Cheers.

I've had this problem numerous times, but i think i stumbled upon a fix/workaround. Its seems lately within the past month my 8525 has been flawlessly connecting to activesync after i did a hard reset and installed the ext rom software manually, one by one. I left out all of the cingular custom crap, and its been good so far! Before this i used to all always get a dropped AS connection but it would still be charging, or my phone wouldnt sync upon the 1st connection, and i would have to unplug and plug again!

I'm currently only syncing via bluetooth, works excellent!
I'll try the hard reset some other time.
But thanks anyway!
oh yeah, bluetooth syncing always worked for me as well!
Firewallsoftware stops ActiveSync
ActiveSync 4.1 and up is IP-based instead of the standard USB-protocol. Some Firewall-software block any IP-based communication. If you're affected update your firewall-rules to allow ActiveSync to pass.
I had this today - my T-Mobile MDA Vario II would not sync with either home or work pc. It just kept saying "usb device attatched to this computer has malfunctioned"
I phoned tmobile, who told me to take out the battery and that they would send a reset signal to my phone. I took the battery out, put it back in, powered up, got a txt from t-mobile to say the reset had happened, plugged the usb cable back in and it synced properly right away.
Might be worth calling your provider see if the same works for you?
Dear All,
after plug my startrek to usb activesync starts and identified it and the local network connected but after seconds it disconnect from the activesync.
i'd search all the net for a solution but not finding any.
mabey the drivers?
anybody could give me the drivers for the activesync 4.5 on starttrek
thanks alot
Maddening, I just went through the same thing. Drill down into Microsoft's site, there's some additional info on reconfiguring your usb port, it was just a button, on/off kind of thing so if it's X try Y and vice versa. That solved it for me, sorry I can't be more specific but I didn't write anything down. I did get the initial link from the activesync trouble shooter however.
in my case my firewall (zone labs) was the cause.
thanks alot for replay
i've went through all the microsofts' but nothing, it still connect and disconnect.
thier is somthing else.

Hi, extract the Reg file from this Zip and run it on your PC, n reboot. Had a similar problem on mine, and it worked
Ran into a problem. My ActiveSync wouldn't recognize my device. It's showing up within Device Manager but when I connect it no go.
ActiveSync knows something is being connected because it starts to do it's thing but then errors out and cannot establish a connection with my Athena.
Anyone else run into this problem?
I've uninstalled/reinstalled ActiveSync 4.2 AND 4.5. Checked to ensure that the services that ActiveSync depends on are running, etc.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

you are not running Windows Vista are you?
No. Running Windows XP Pro.
It was working a bit flakey at first. I had an HTC TyTN synching perfectly on ActiveSync 4.5. When I got my Advantage in, I hooked it up and it acted a bit weird but trying to hurry and get my phone up and running I avoided setting up the relationship so it was a "guest". I installed software onto my Advantage without a problem. Later, once I got my stuff migrated from TyTn to Advantage, I deleted all existing relationships in ActiveSync then tried to join the Advantage to it and it knows the phone is there but won't establish a profile with it. Did a repair on 4.5, didn't work. Uninstalled/reinstalled 4.5, didn't work. Uninstalled 4.5 and installed 4.2 (the version on the CD), didn't work. Researched ActiveSync and noticed that one of the dependent services was stopped...I activated this service, rebooted...didn't work. ActiveSync uses a TCP/IP port to listen on so I did "telnet 127.0.0.1 xxxx" where xxxx is the port and it's there listening, so requests can be accepted.
I'll probably try hard resetting my device this weekend if no one has any recommendations. Once I find the answer I'll post it here.
Possible causes are:
- Corrupt ActiveSync on laptop. An uninstall/reinstall should have resolved this unless the unlerlying OS files that ActiveSync utilizes are corrupt and those weren't repaired/replaced during the reinstall.
- Corrupt ActiveSync on phone. Can't be uninstalled/reinstalled to my knowledge without a hard reset so not much I can do.
- Maybe the GPRS monitor I installed caused a problem. I initially installed the one that came on the CD but had to remove it because it kept locking up the phone and slowing things down significantly.
Are you running BitDefender as your AV/Firewall? A recent update prevents ActiveSync from working correctly. see link:

No. Not running either. I did a hard reset and it started working again. Then a few days later the same thing happened again. Not sure exactly what the problem is but since I already did a hard reset and the problem resurfaced, I'm going to have to do some debugging to figure out what the culprit is. Just hate wasting time going through a debug. :-/
Hi,
I am experiencing similar problems with my T-Mobile MDA Compact 3.
I recently re-installed my PC and installed 4.5 having previously used 4.2.
After a few days it stopped syncing. It still allowed you to view files on the phone from the PC and install programs, it just would not Sync.
I did a hard reset of the phone to night and it worked fine to begin with but now it appears to have stopped working again.
Does anyone have any ideas what is wrong. I am assuming that AS 4.5 is the problem here.
Regards

That is weird. After my initial hard reset, it happened again. I did another hard reset anyhow because I was trying out new programs and wanted it to be clean again. Not sure what was causing mine to stop functioning but when it did, I couldn't connect to the phone at all. I wouldn't browse nor synch, etc.
It has now definately stopped working.
Looks like I will have to hard reset the MDAC3 again and try from scratch using AS 4.2.
My only concern that without reinstalling my PC there may be some residual problem in the registry or elsewhere that the new installs are picking up.
I am about to try another trawl of the Internet to see if anyone else is experiencing these problems, and has a solution.
Regards
Hi,
....and we are back. I went back to Microsofts site and looked over all the various solutions for AS problems where you are connected but not syncing.
There is a suggestion that USB hubs can cause problems and that you should connect your phone directly to the PCs main USB ports. I had discounted that as it has always been connected to the USB port with no problems.
I have just tried it and it and it is now syncing fine again.
I am assuming that AS 4.2 coped with the hub okay or my reinstall of the PC had caused the problem.
I will now try some soft resets and re-boots of my PC to see if AS keeps working. Fingers crossed!!!
Regards
...and now we are back to square one.
I also tried unistalling Outlook 2007 and reinstalling 2002 and AS 4.2 but it did not even connect.
One thing I have also noticed is when you run the troubleshooter in AS it seems to think that their is not a copy of Outlook as it tells you to install Outlook 2000 or higher. This would explain the lack of syncing while the device appears connected in terms of being to explore it and install programs.
Tried a search on this on the Internet but did not find anything.
Looks like a full reinstall of the PC and a Hard Reset of the device is required.
Deep Joy, thanks Microsoft.

START ---> Settings ---> Connections Tab ----> USB to PC icon !! have a play with that, it worked for me, when I was having the same problems as you !!
Do you have Clean Notificatons installed or any other program that clears the notifications cache? I may have found one cause of the ActiveSync issue I was experiencing.
Hi,
Well I did the full install of both PC and phone and after one sync it started to play up again. I was about to through both out of the window when I began to realise that there was a slight issue on the phone itself.
I use SBSH Pocket Weather and I noticed that it did not seem to be updating weather and image automatically. I had imported settings from my previous setup. I reinstalled PW and set it up from scratch and hey presto Active Sync is working fine again.
I guess some form of problem must have migrated over in the PW settings.
Either that or it was just blind luck it worked.
Regards

Also had activesync problems: I could synchronise but I could not connect to the internet, only via USB!
Now it is working with AS 4.2 and above box unchecked!
With AS 4.5 -which I also tried- I could not connect to internet with above box checked & unchecked !!!

Is the USB connection set up as Internet in AS4.5?
Howdy,
I have a 'jasjam' and am presently running WM6 Black. I decided today that I would upgrade to the new HTC ROM but almost every time I connect my phone to the PC here (Win XP) I get 'USB Device Not Recognized' on the occasion it does work, once the phone goes into the boatload when I try to upgrade (Hard SPL) I get 'A device attached to the computer has malfunctioned.' or something along those lines.
Any help here would be greatly appreciated.
Ben.
Bump...
The phone seems to initially recognized (XP installs driver for HTC USB Sync), but after a little while the charge light will turn off and the phone will not be seen. After reconnecting it it becomes an 'Unknown USB device' again.
I'm running Schap's 3.54c.
Hopefully someone's encountered this problem before.
Ben.
Managed to upgrade with SD card, which indicently I felt was rather an improved process over upgrading via USB.
In any case I'm still having no luck getting the USB connection to function even now with the new HTC rom.
I've tried various things including cycling 'advanted networking features' under the USB connection properties (I saw this mentioned in another thread).
Again, any help would be appreciated.
Ben.

do a system restore on your machine. select the time before you did your last flash. my pc at work does the same thing, system restore usually fixes it.

That's a good idea, that's worked before for me also.
Another option, if you can find the phone under 'Device Manager' on your PC, is to remove it.
And then when you plug your phone back in to your PC it recognizes 'New Hardware' and reinstalls it.
Sometimes that works.
It's happening also for me from time to time.
- A restart of both machines sometimes helps.
- good usb cable is needed (I had a retractable and it was almost never syncing).
- reinstall activesync + delete partenrship on both tel & pc is the last thing you could try...
Still it happens to me sometimes.
PS1: I was almost never able to sync via usb cable when not connected to the Company Lan.
PS2: I found a Mobile Checkpoint VPN client was also "disturbing".
