Dash wont connect to pc

[redg2]

So im trying to connect my dash so i can install windows 6.1 kavana, currently running the rose 6.5rom i believe. So when i go to hook it up to my pc nothing comes up its as if the phone was not connected at all, now i was thinking should i hard reset and then try to install, or what can i do?

[redg2]

ok did the hard reset that didnt do much but reset it, anyway i can get it so it shows up on my pc as connected so then i can re-flash?

Have you gone into the USB settings and unchecked the "Advanced Functionality" setting? After you've done that, you should be able to form a relationship between your pc and Windows Mobile Device Center or Activesync depending on what Windows OS you're using.

yea i did that still doesnt connect comes up as generic device asks for a driver and since i dont have one it says device not installed correctly, also noticed i couldnt sent mms messages.

nvm got it working with a little bit of searching

What was your solution? Thanks.

You probably had to disable the sdcard, if you have one I assume.

It was dumb but i had to install active sync since i forgot to install that after the format of my pc :confused: and for the MMS i had to go into the connectivity menu and set it up for tmobile, all working perfect now..only if i could get better signal though, anyway of just installing an update for the radio?

Not really. Don't know where you live but signal is 90% of the times dependent from your carrier. Unless you have a RAZR, than its your phone not picking up much. :D
