P3300 not sync-ing anymore!

[fdo211]

Hi everyone, I have tried very hard to find a solution to this problem. My P3300 stopped syncing with Mobile Device Center every time I plug in the USB cable. Is this a cable fault or is it hardware/software malfunction? Has anybody experience the same issue? Even with bluetooth my pc can not find my P3300? The USB cable charges the phone no problem but there's not connection from the PC to the P3300... Any help will be deeply appreciated.

if you look in the activstnc box under file
connection settings
make sue all the options are checked

If you have already checked this I'm at a loss apart from to reinstall AS on your PC.

Good luck

Thanks peterbutler19 for your input...yeak I made sure that everything was checked..also noticed that everytime I plugged in the USB cable there wouldn't be any reaction at the PC... like not even seeing an external USB device... besides only charging the P3300. Its quite a troubling issue.

Don´t know why it happens, but i found that is a problem with windows media player in windows vista.
It´s an issue between, WMDC and WMP.

Hi I use to have same problem, I think is the rom version that you use or a program that you recently install. The way I fixit was only hard reset because the re-installing of activesync dont resolve nothing.

Ark666, hmmm didn't thought about that... I might give it a try and see it that solves the problem. So far now I can only charge the phone and that's about it...

I did a hard reset on the P3300 ryomahino, but the problem still persist. I try to install the WM6 original ROM but can't do since the phone can't activsync with the PC. By the way I am using the B&B v4.2 ROM

I don´t remember the site, but do a google search, it has worked for me, it has nothing to do with the device, the problem it´s Vista itself.

Media Player may not work after this.

I too had a problem with my Compact III loosing its sync with Vista.

It drove me up the wall. Somedays it was fine others it just reported a red cross... I had to go into Device Manager on the PC and remove the drivers manually and then resinstall them. But over time it would loos the syncing again.

I eventually solved it by using a different USB port on my PC.

I was originally using the USB hub that was built into my Dell monitor, but whenever the screen was powered down and the PC left on (ie overnight) the hub didn't always wake up properly.

I know only use the USB ports built into the back of the PC and I have had no problems for several months.

Hope it helps :-)

I had the same problem with my O2 XDA Orbit.

The only thing that cured it was a hard reset:confused:
