Device ID keep changing on Vista

[BladeStorm]

Please help - I sync my Tytn with ActiveSync on XP (Laptop) and with Device Centre on Vista (Desktop). I have set the Device ID on my PPC & it works fine with XP, but when I connect to Vista the ID on the PPC is changed. I disconnect the device, rename the ID to what it was originally, reconnect and the ID is changed again to HTC?? ( ?? = random numbers ). This is causing the device ID to not display my name on BT Car kit. I have searched the web & the forum but have not found a solution.

I've been trying to find a solution to this for ages! Everything seems to sync OK (with advanced networking disabled) but it's so irritating that WMDC on Vista changes the Device ID on my device, even when set manually on my Kaiser. Looks like this is simply an annoying WMDC/Vista bug that cannot be solved...

Do not use underscores in your device ID. When you flash a new ROM you typically default to HTC_TYTN or something similar; remove the "_". On my Vista WMDC the device ID kept on changing to HTC67 and the next time HTC69, etc. Removing the underscore did the trick.

Thanks! That did the trick. I was also having the super irritating problem of Device ID changing. I was using an underscore in my Device ID name. Removing it really did the trick, no more Device ID changing.

Thank you very much.
