You can try uninstalling the driver, then uninstalling ActiveSync (as the driver is included with the ActiveSync installation). Reboot. Then re-download a fresh copy of ActiveSync 4.5 and install. Reboot again and then connect your phone and see if you can activate Internet Sharing successfully.

Give that a try and report back.:)

thanks for the reply,

ive :
- uninstall the driver,
- uninstall the active sync,
- reboot
- download new microsoft active sync
- reboot
- and intall active sync again
- tap on internet sharing icon

nope its still show the same error. any other solution?

what's with downloading another copy of activ sync, anyway?

did someone here know, where is the driver file located, when the hardware install?

I've never had this problem before, but I've attached a screen shot of the activesync device drivers. I'm not sure if it will help.

Did activesync used to work OK before and now it doesn't? Have you installed anything else since then? Maybe there is a conflict with another driver.

microsoft active sync 4.5 still work fine, its still can syncronized with out installing the "windows mobile-based device" driver. see at the pic bellow :

did anyone have more solution on this? please:(

I don't see the network adapter for your "Windows Mobile based device" in the device settings. (Check my screen shots.) I only see your LAN, Wireless and 1394 Firewire adapters.
If you look at the driver info you will see that windows uses the same drivers for the Internet connection sharing and Active Sync.
When I enable Internet Sharing on my PDA then it automatically turns off the Activesync connection and connects via Internet sharing.

that's the point, when i connect my hemes to laptop using usb there is a buble pop-up saying "USB device not recognized".

then i look to device manager, there is no network adapter saying "windows mobile-based device"

just when i tap on internet sharing and connect on my hermes, it show up "windows mobile-based device" of course with yellow icon.

and even with out the driver install, i still can syncronive using active sync

any other solution? :confused:

Wow! Really strange problem. I understand where you are at. Have you only had this problem with this particular ROM?
Do you have another USB cable you can test with it?

The required drivers are in C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers
rndismpx.sys
usb8023x.sys

Check and if they are there then maybe swap USB port and also check the cable. Can you try to install activesync on another computer for testing?

Sorry, probably not too much help for you. It's gotta be a process of elimination. Let me know if there's any other info I can send you.

[brainet]

the
- rndismpx.sys
- usb8023x.sys

is not present in windows driver, but i copy the files in to it. but still no luck.

thanks for the help though really appriciate it.

i'm looking for this file "Usb_Rndis.ndi" do you have it, or know where can i got it?

Sorry I don't have this file. I suspect something strange with your activesync, though I don't know why.

Thanks.

i've got the same problem

[cakeove]

I have also the same problem. I tested with different roms and differents PC. Windows Vista and Windows XP. the internet sharing works fine for a time and them connection its broken, appears the ballon USB Don't recognized.
I have to restart the phone to use internet again or to sync with active sync.

This is a windows problem. When i use internet sharing with Linux Ubuntu. i don't have this problem.

HTC 8525 HER100
Current ROM WM6.1 Shadow 2.1 TE
Previous ROM WM6 Schaps 4.31

If you have this problem and it has never worked, try a different USB cable. I have a cable that doesnt support syncing over USB, replacing the cable worked fine. This sint a fix for everyone, but it is worth a shot.

I don't know if this will help, but it's worth looking over:
AT&T 8525 WM6 USB Internet Sharing (http://tinyurl.com/2mujk2).

This may sound obvious but one of the main problems with active sync connecting to your device are firewalls. They block the connection. Disconnect from the internet, switch off all your firewalls and try reconnecting.
I had this same problem. Even registering active syc in my firewall program didnt help. The only solution is to switch it off completely. Some firewalls allow the connection (trend Micro/(my work)), some don't at all (K7 internet security/home) and some allow intermittently. Don't forget to switch off windows firewall too.

I also have the same problem, all of a sudden. I wonder if softbank Japan have somehow disabled it from April 1st or something crazy. It would not surprise me... Unless anybody has found a solution?

Hi, I had the same problem, too. I used htc838pro before to do internet sharing and it was working great. Then I got htc3702 (victor) and tried to do internet sharing. It failed to connect successfully with htc3702. Then I went back to my htc838pro, it failed too with same problem. I tried with my Acer NB (XP) and Acer desktop (home pc, XP). They were failed with htc3702 first and then failed following with htc838pro. My htc838pro still works fine with any PC or NB which have not tried htc3702 before. I don't know if there is coincidence or not. But it looks like that I need to re-install XP on my Acer NB if I want to restore its normal function with my htc838pro. However, I think it should be able to be fixed... just don't want to give it up so soon. Thanks. YJ
