Hi all,
I just bought a second hand nokia lumia 800.
It original owner got it from nokia as a dev gift.
Everything seems to be working except for zune, which is giving me the error: "connection error" and it saying me i have to restart my phone.
I did everything i tried to fix it like:
rebooting phone and computer
factory reseting the phone
reinstalling zune
trying other usb ports
trying other usb cables
trying other computers
running admin mode
Apart from this i tried everything google came up with.
There is something curious: a fix suggests i have to remove something from the certificate manager, but it's not there.
I already asked the seller if i could get my money back, but he doesnt believe it's the phone (or that i destroyed the phone myself).
Does anyone have a solution to this.
I really want to listen to music, else im forced to sell it (which will be difficult because of this bug).
Mathijs
i have the same problem too. i've tried search everywhere. but couldn't find any single solution.
I have exactly the same problem.
I just bought Lumia 800 from Saturn German Bemen and I cannot get it connected. I tried 3 computers and I also have HTC HD7 and Samsung Omnia 7 and both of those phones are working fine on these Zunes and computes. Never had these problems with those two phones.
Mauri
Same here, arrived today and cannot get zune to connect to the phone.
The solution is the date.
If you change your date time to tomorrow it works. I think it is a problem with the leap year.
@xGDI:
tnx, that worked

You can change the date by right clicking the date&time at the right bottom of the screen in the taskbar (or whatever its called).
Additionally you can try to look it up on the microsoft site (google is your friend).
I also noticed that the drivers arent correctly installed if you install zune before connecting your device for the first time.
So you may wanna try removing zune, connect the phone and give it some time to install the drivers, then reinstall zune on your computer.
Zune/microsoft also have a free livechat that you may wanna try.

Maybe the issue you're having isn't leap day related, you may just have a corrupted certificate. Try following this tutorial

I just tried WM2003SE upgrade, but after erasing message, it just gave connection 101 error!
i tried, hard reset, soft, etc, but no lock it just says:
Serial
v 1.01
if i put it in the cradle, it will show "USB" instead of "Serial",
is this dead? i just bought it and like a hero, tried upgrading
It's not dead.
Put it in the cradle and try the upgrade again.
Don't forget to connect the power charger to the cradle for in case the battry is drained during upgrade.
Regards,
Mark
and if that doenst work try to upgrade it on another pc with active sync
Finally, my advice starts to stick!! :lol:
Have you done lots of upgrading on that particular PC? If so, then it's definitely worth trying a diff PC.

It Worked!
Hi, thanks everyone for your replies, i managed to get it working today on a another PC, looks like its time for me to get another laptop, this one is dying.
It worked sometimes, then cuts off in the middle, then stops working, i tried it all night yesterday, though i lost it all, only had about 2 hours sleep because of that but i tried today on another pc, and it worked the first time.
Probably onboard usb is faulty (although it works with my cable modem, external dvd-rw, etc), but it seems to me, the update/upgrade program needs error-free connection and mine might be ill.
anyway, i downloaded the rom from o2 xda website and updated to that(wanted to upgrade to WM2003SE before it went in coma), i cant afford another crisis , i like my xda 2 too much! :wink:
Thanks for your replies, appreciate it 8)
I don't think it's anything wrong with the hardware. My advice would be to ensure you backup any backup files then uninstall ActiveSync, before removing all registry and folder references to it. Then, reinstall and then see how things go from then on. Glad it's working though now!
Cheers

Backups
Yup, i've done a backup of the ROM and also the Extended Rom, don't know how to backup or where the Radio Stack is, so i'm assuming its in the main Rom.
The reason i think its the hardware fault is because things like cable modem, dvd rewriters, etc work beneath the drivers, and they do all checksums and checking, with Him upgrade program, it uses ActiveSync APIs, so any hic cups in activesync would be passed down to him upgrade, if activesync did proper data checking and resend data (or might be that the bootloader is limited so it might be limited on what it can do) then the errors could be rectified.
These are all my assumptions. thinking out loud.. etc
I tried reinstalling activesync, etc also created new admin user, tried safe mode with networking (without networking gives TCP/IP error message).
All failed.
i wanted to fix it yesterday night with this laptop, and didnt have access to any other computer, so ended up staying up til late and trying all possibilities, but all failed so i gave up and waited for the next day. came back from work and then tried it on another computer and it went smoothly.
Also tried resetting the xda2 many times, taking the battery out, soft hard cold hot yellow green, tried all, but no luck. :roll:
So i assumed it was a hardware fault, or XP sp2 fault (the other one is a desktop with win2k).
anyway i'll be formatting this xp sp2 soon and putting windows 2k, seems more stable, trying to get maximum mileage out of this laptop.
thanks for the tip though.
Thanks in advance if anyone can come up with something that helps... I can't imagine what that might be though!
This morning I had a stock Mogul... original ROM, no hacks, even had the Sprint S/W on it. It worked fine.
I downloaded the new Sprint ROM 3.35.651.2 and ran it. While running the Mogul rebooted, went to bootloader, then failed. It was then stuck in bootloader mode. I read up and found that a successful flash should bring it out gracefully so didn't troubleshoot much. I tried a couple of times more to no effect. It was still in bootloader mode.
I then downloaded the old 2.17.651.0 ROM from HTC and that wouldn't work either. Still in boot loader mode.
I read somewhere that a guy got the 3.16.651.0 leaked ROM to update even when the others would not. So, I downloaded and tried it. Everything looked good! It was loading the ROM, the bar went across the screen to 100% and then...
nothing. A black screen. Vista loaded some new drivers and seemed to know there was a USB device attached but I couldn't connect to it in any useful way through Explorer and it didn't show up in the Mobile Device Center.
I thought I'd try flashing it again but since the screen was black I was just guessing. I did a hard reset (both soft keys plus soft reset button) and I got nothing... not even the same connection I'd had after the 3.16 update.
Now, I plug in the device and get no USB connect sound or notification in Windows. I get a orange light on the right LED for maybe 15 seconds then it goes out. Other than that one brief LED the thing is a brick as far as I can tell.
Any ideas? I plan on taking it in to Sprint tomorrow and telling them they bricked my phone with their update if I can't figure anything out tonight.
Thanks!
First POSSIBLY legitimate brick story I've seen.
Have you tried holding down power and camera while pressing reset to see if you can get back to bootloader?

Yes.
FYI... I just left the battery out for about 5 minutes (what the heck, worth a try right?) and put it back in. I get no lights, buttons do nothing, soft & hard reset do nothing, forced bootloader does nothing. The only way I can get the phone to do anything is to plug it in to a USB cable. The orange light comes on for about 15 seconds then goes out. The computer never recognized there is a new USB device attached.
I loaded many custom ROMs on my old 6700 and never had a problem. I leave my new 6800 alone and wait for the upgraded stock ROM and look what happens! Guess I shoulda used a custom ROM instead, eh?
lol sounds like a legitimate "brick" to me. Very strange, and congrats on your new mogul paperweight (i also have one that was a victim of water) haha, good for holding things down on the windy days.
Yup, bricked.
Sprint couldn't figure out how to unbrick it and just gave me a new phone. The new one upgraded nicely and now I have GPS!
Everyone enjoy the upgrade!
same problem
no need to retype what you said. i had the EXACT same problem. phone was completely bricked and continued to crash at 11%. I went to my local store (i work for sprint, and i know a smart tech there) and was told it was kaput. Hard reset, tried to reload other roms, the whole 9 yards. It's a goner, and now i have a new mogul in my hand. I'm afraid to try it again. I'm running vista, and im wondering if that's the problem.
Anyone with vista have the same bricking problem? Is it an issue to directly upgrade from factory rom to the 3.35? My old brick had the current 2.17 or whatever... HALP
Vista
The first time I tried the update I connected the Mogul to my Vista Business 64bit Thinkpad T61p.
The second time I tried it (on the new Mogul) was from my Vista Business 32bit desktop (white box).
I don't know if that helps or not. The second time went smoothly.
On another note... an entertaining one... while I was in the Sprint store today waiting for their tech to confirm that the phone was bricked another guy came in with a Mogul and complained of the same thing. I took the last Mogul they had in stock. Poor guy. I hope they get more soon... there are a lot of people who want GPS and are upgrading their phones. That means there are gonna be some more bricks I'd think.
Hey guys Im a noob and im having a bit of problems
Im stuck in the bootloader screen
TITA100 MFG
SPL-2.40 Olipro
CPLD-9
My comp has windows vista premium so instead of activesync i have windows device center 6.1 I have unclicked allow USB connections
but i think my comp doesnt recognize that they the phone is connected at all although i do here the sound that lets me know that a usb device is connected
exitbl.exe doesn't work keeps telling me
cannot open USB port
Please make sure that USB connection in Activesync is disabled
Also make sure that your USB cable is properly connected
if it helps im on a bell phone
im having a problem in which my touch pro will not sync or be recognized by ANY type of usb connection (ie, advanced network functionallity unchecked, disk drive mode) it syncs via bluetooth just fine, and when connected to the computer via usb the dialog box asking which type of connection still pops up and it still charges, but no type of connection will go through, i have tried everything except for a hard reset which is what im really avoiding because i have it finally running exactly how i wanted (complete with manila 2.1 on wm6.1 htc 2.01 rom which took me an hour to get working exactly how i wanted), any suggestions, im going crazy here

from where i sit, it sounds like u've spent more time fussing with the no-usb problem more than the hour it'd take to "setup" your phone lol.
can you provide any more info? when did it start happening? have you tried from a couple different computers? cables? please give as much information as you have on the entire subject so we dont have to "drag it out of you" as you are the one requesting assistance dont make us do all the work
I have been having same issue with my Touch Pro. It was working great a few weeks ago...then it just stopped...my pc can't sync or recognized the device. I have been doing extensive reading on so many posts...but nothing seems to work. I finally gave up and a did a hard reset last week...guess what? It still did not work. I suspect it might be a hardware failure. Here is what i did and it was unsuccessful:
Install and then uninstall WMD...nothing, bought new OEM data cables (2 to a pack)...nothing, unchecked the advance network functionaility...nothing, someone recommend to swipe the connection inside the phone for possible dust...nothing, tried on my laptop, desktop PC, work PC and my UMPC (all worked before)...nothing, i tried different usb ports on ALL pcs...nothing, started up ICS and connect (supposedly it will install drivers needed)...nothing.
I also notice that some of the chargers I had for it-also stopped working. Only OEM chargers work now.
Also, there are MANY people complaining about this problem as well...
so I use this program, WIFI Remote Access v1 beta 4, freeware to add apps or make changes via wifi. Works great.

Wish I could find a "fix" for this issue...I can't sent it to Sprint or have a warranty since I flashed it over to Metro PCS...like I said it was working for the past 5 months or so...

well probably last weekend it started happening in which WMDC would just drop the connection and wouldnt reconnect until i rebooted the PC and yesterday morning it also wouldnt connect till i rebooted the pc then it synced and added songs just fine, then i went to school and sat down on one of the computers there and worked on a paper i had to do, this was the last time it worked at all, i got back home and when i connected it to the PC no connections accepted at all, ive rebotted and soft resetted about several times to no avail.
**UPDATE**
i just bit the bullet and did a hard reset and guess what?...........still not working so im resyncing everything through bluetooth and soon will reinstall manilla2.1, after this i will be going to sprint tech support, maybe i can have it exchanged for a TP2
well so yesterday i went up to the sprint store, explained my situation to them and said that ive even done hard resets, they guy had me turn in my phone to him and said that the repair would only take 45mins well 70 passed before i saw my phone again and when i got it back they told me that the reason it wouldnt sync is due to all the 3rd party programs i had installed (only 3rd party program was spb pocket plus) all other installed programs were made by microsoft,sprint and htc. so they did a hard reset and told me it synced their computer fine and that it may be a problem with my computer so got home and it STILL DID NOT WORK!! i even plugged in my axim x51v and it synced without problems,i cant believe i wasted 5 hours of my time and pay an extra $7 for such unprofessional service. they didnt even offer me a new USB cable.
Hey eric,
I have been to other sites and there other members experiencing the same thing. This is the first time hearing it was a 3rd party app...you know it isn't an app if you do a hard reset, which I DID...and it still my pc doesn't recognize it. In my case, it was working great one day...and the next day- it just stopped working.
Now my wif also went haywire. And a hard reset didn't fix that either...
I will be getting the Touch Pro2 soon. I never experience any issues when I had the HTC Mogul...my HTC Pro...well I love it...but i can't deal with the hardware issues...I just replaced my keyboard not to long ago.
Sorry to hear Sprint gave you the run around...
edit: I read somewhere in another post...that sometimes the wifi wire can get unplugged after installing a new keyboard...I opened it up and found the wifi wire (on the back side) plugged in the wrong connector. I must have unplugged it accidentally and then plugged in on the wrong connector. Found the error...now wifi works great.
I've began to have the same issues as well. Last week I flashed vet's ROM and thats when it died. I tried hard resets and other ROMS and its still the same thing so I dont believe it was vet's ROM but more of a hardware issue.
I have no activesync functionality, no flash ability over USB, but charging and disk drive work fine.

I never had this issue. Only internet stops working with the weather updates and skyfire, Im on metro, I just reflash the cab for the internet and that fixes that. But did anyone else try flashing a new rom like hemirunner426 did? Could be worth a shot to get it working. Sounds like urs is F'ed dood sorry.
well I bought a new usb cable from ebay for only $3.xx and since it arrived my usb functionality was restored.
Its usually a problem with the usb cord. I had this same problem before. Just go to the sprint store and they will exchange the cord for free, they also redesigned the cord do it doesnt keep breaking.

I have been testing energy and veito roms and started to get the same problem as everyone here having to reboot both tp and pc to get it to connect I get it to sync but if I leave it on it disconnects and I get usb device malfunctioning or unable to reconise device so I called sprint they told me to go to the repair center I pay my tep for 7 buck he told me it I had damaged the usb port the plastic in side was broken it had been like that from when I got it new he said it would cost me 100.00 for the Insurance to get a new one I went to the other repair center said almost the same thing the bull about this is the tep they are suppost just fix the phone no matter how the phone is broke even tho it was not broken so I called sprint they put me thru to tech support they offered me several replacement all junk phones or a refub tp so I took the tp wouldn't give me a tp2 think I am going to call retention and complaine now that I see I am not alone with this problem
I'm suddenly having this problem now.....I have switched to 2 different computers (freshly formatted), flashed to 2 other ROMs via SD card but still no luck with the sync through WMDC.....It charges the phone but will not sync. Any ideas from the gurus??

Like the title says...I just got a Lumia 800 from Nokia and after spending 2 days trying to get the damn thing to boot, I finally have it up and running but now I can't get any of the developer tools to connect to it. Zune is the latest version and recognizes and sync's with the phone perfectly...however nothing else will connect to the phone, WPConnect.exe, PhoneReg.exe, Tom's XAP Installer, VS2010, nothing. I have rebooted both my PC and Phone countless times, plugged, unplugged, tried different ports, turned off wifi, date-time settings etc.....all to no avail. I was really excited to get this phone but it has been nothing but problems, really making me hate WP7 and Nokia.
Can anyone please provide me with some help?
I have no idea why but reseting the phone and trying again worked...the phone is brand new I had not changed a thing....so stupid.
p.s.
These developer gift nokias...not dev unlocked...

Got fed up with waiting around for Micro$oft and HTC to finish d!cking around deciding if they are going to release this stuff or not. It seems they can't even decide through their own official website announcements what's going on, and both seem to contradict each other. HTC need a big lesson on customer relations, and responding positively, and keeping former promises about updates, or many of us long term HTCers are likely to move to the Nokia side of the Force.
Anyway, moving on from the corporate politics...
Ran this on a factory-supplied unlocked HTC Titan X310e, and it worked an absolute treat... 25 minutes of loading various updates, but no problems noted thus far. The only thing I did notice was the HTC hub icon not acting in live mode in either large or medium tile size (just goes dark). Maybe that's just a refresh issue, but not really bothered - it's only an icon to launch the real app. Resized it small fort he HTC logo, so I know what it does if I need it.
It will ask you to install the Dev Kit first (5 minutes tops) and that installs all automatic, then relaunch 7-8er, choose language pack (be careful to scroll down the full list if you want English UK), and just watch it update. Remember to enter your PIN after it reboots after each incremental upload so the next stage can run.
Brilliant work.

I update my phone using SevenEighter a few days back. It was working fine until yesterday. Afther update i noticed my phone is restaring abnormally. Yesterday night colors where messed out in background screen and after restart it was fine.
Later My phone made again abnormal restart and didnt wake up any more!! Was just showing Nokia logo and thats it. After serval minutes it made continious restarts. So i figured out that problem may be related to Lumia 800 Battery issues what has happened with many people! (My phone is 3 days old). Today i downloaded original RM ending .. 12070 and i was able to recover using nokia care suite. thank god!
So my question to you guys is have you noticed same thing happening with your phone? Also does wp7.8 contain any kind battery fix like 7.5 has? I liked 7.8 much but if im not able to use it and it ruins my device i´ll stay on 7.5.

I flashed 7.8 on my 710 using NaviFirm and downloader.exe and last night I got the exact same problem
The background of the homescreen covered all the tiles, all tiles were under the background, then some tiles appeared but most were still gone
Rebooted the phone and everything is fine again
It must be a 7.8 bug, not the method we update them
