PC Suite for HTC Hero - Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is there a software similar to the Nokia PC Suite that provides options to control / access the phone from the PC? I am used to the Sony Ericsson PC Suite with my earlier P1i and use the mRouter for accessing the internet. What i get from the HTC Sync is options to sync the data alone. Something similar to the PC Suite will be better!
Thanks

You could look at this and this. Haven't tried any of those, but hey, you could give it a shot

Just for info the second suggestion does not seem to work on Win 7, haven't tried the other yet.

Have you tried running it in compatabilitymode for vista/xp?

any ideas for sync / rom update in non-microsoft OS? what about ubuntu?

PC Suite
the first option (htc phone portal) works fine for my Hero. the phone is added with a web server. from the PC browser I am able to connect to the phone and access all my contacts, SD Card contents and to an extend configure the settings as well.
Thanks

[APP][REQUEST] SyncToy for PDA

Hi Community,
I am searching for a tool like SyncToy 2.1 from Microsoft to sync data such as files, folders between my LG GM750 Smartphone and network folders.
MobSync is not what I want because of the data transfer via ActiveSync and the problem with large files.
My environment at home is a WiFi Router which is connected to the internet via UMTS. Attached to the router are 2 hard drives with 500 GB and 1500 GB. On the hard drives are the folders (SMB shares) I want to sync with folders on my smartphone's sd card.
The phone is connected via WiFi to the router and I have access to the shares on the hard drives using Total Commander.
I searched for weeks now to find such an application without success until now. Maybe I have overseen... otherwise there might be a programmer here who can take care of my wish!
Thanks in advance!

Hi,
no, this app uses some internet service. This is not what I want.
My goal is an app like SyncToy in which I can create folder pairs to be syncronized. There is no need to involve the internet. It's just an intranet thing taking place in my private local area network...
Any further suggestions? All apps I found are using ActiveSync... but the sync should work over Wireless LAN.
Best regards,
Werner
unfortunately I am not aware of such an app.
I am afraid that you're right...
in the past few hours I have intensified my search dramatically... but all promising apps are using ActiveSync or WMDC. I even thought of Mortscript but how can I compare folders and determine changes AND generate lists of files to be copied...?
However, for the moment I have given up. If there is a programmer around here... please help!
Thanks in advance & best regards,
Werner

hmmm...yes and no...
There is no Windows Mobile client, but I would have to run it from my netbook or any other computer. And then it utilizes ActiveSync resp. WMDC...
Unfortunately, that is a no-go. I need an app on my Windows Mobile phone which syncs folder pairs over WiFi. No internet, no ActiveSync, no WMDC... just my private LAN...
I didn't discover such an app yet...
Best regards,

and costs 40$, that's why I'm curious how it's better than available free apps
Remote desktop is a program or an operating system feature that allows the user to connect to a computer in another location using a computer, see that computer's desktop and interact with it as if it were local.
with RDM+ you connect from your mobile to the desktop, you dont need another computer

but the same can be achieved with other free apps (the WM 6.5 native "Remote Desktop Mobile" or "zaDesktop"), so apparently the RDP+ must have some additional features? I'm just curious which

Remote Desktop - part of Windows Mobile 6.5, should be already on your device, instructions on setup can be found here
zaDesktop - can be found here,
Windows remote desktop is no longer available on windows mobile 6.5.3
and RDM+ is way much better than ZDesktop

And this brings back my original question: I'd love to know how RDM+ compares to zaDesktop in terms of functionality, given that the price difference is 40$ to 0.

[Q] PC Suite for Transformer

Has anyone installed the PC Suite on their computer (desk top) to use with the Transformer. My understanding (though it us unclear) you install it first on your windows based computer and then on you transformer, and then you can have access to your windows machine and sync things like calander and contacts.
Anyone installed it? How does it work?
Asus Sync is what you're looking for. Download from Asus website

[Q] Grrr! How do I sync w. Outlook?

OK, just got the phone.
Installed SAMSUNG_USB_Driver_for_Mobile_Phones_x86.exe
Installed MyPhoneExplorer_Setup_1.8.1.exe
But MyPhoneExplorer can't see the USB connection. I did set USB Debugging on, as per the MyPhoneExplorer instructions, but still nothing.
Help!
[ time passes ]
Still no joy. I've also tried http://downloadcenter.samsung.com/content/SW/201109/20110928044301055/ATT_i777_GS2_USB_Drivers.zip, but can't match the driver to the device.
My biggest "problem" may be that I'm running XP in a virtual machine under Ubuntu. When I activate the SAMSUNG_Andriod USB device under Windows (i.e. pass control of the device to the VM) there are two devices that show up in Windows Device Manager: SAMSUNG_Android and CDC Serial. I've tried having Windows search for the drivers and I've tried pointing it to specific inf files, but it can't find any match between my device and the drivers.
I also tried Samsung's own New PC Studio, but it only finds USB mass storage devices and not the phone itself.
This is a real pain 'cause I need to use Outlook for my work.
OK, so I have enabled the Wi-Fi sync through MyPhoneExplorer, but when I travel I will not necessarily have Wi-Fi available and will still need to sync. Any advice would be appreciated.
If USB cannot be done because of the fact that Windows is in a VM (though I can't think why this shouldn't work) what about Ubuntu giving the USB-connected device an IP number and allowing some sort of sync this way (or am I talking nonsense)?
I've used Kies myself and seems to be the best option that I'm aware of...

Thanks, Kadin, but it's not a question of which application works best but one of managing to get the Windows device drivers to recognise the device as it is working under the XP VM.
I use CompanionLink for my Captivate. It's not free, but it works well.
Gsyncit works real well but its not free either.

gokartracer5: again, it's not the software used to sync that's the issue --it's the USB connection within the XP virtual machine under Ubuntu.

It doesn't need a USB connection. It syncs with google calendar.

Sorry about that, I misunderstood. Wish I was more knowledgeable about your issue...

Not to worry. Thanks for taking an interest nonetheless.
Will Kies synchronize both contacts and calendar or just contacts?
Thanks.

Android remote control apps?

Does anyone know if there are any good apps out there for remotely controlling Android devices from a Windows PC via the USB connection? The only good app I've found so far is Mobizen, however it has one major issue that makes it useless for my requirements, it requires that the Windows machine have an active internet connection. What I want is the ability to remotely control the Android device from a Windows PC when the android device has a data connection, but the windows machine is offline.
My device isn't rooted (I lose more than I gain by rooting) and it's not Samsung, which seems to matter to some of the apps I've found.
Does anybody know of such an app?
