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 :confused: . I hope that somebody can help you better.

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!

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?
