USB Utility

[lucchini]

I'm not quite sure this is the appropriate place to post, so forgive me if it isn't.

I remember some time ago, when still on my magician, that somebody had made a program so that, when connected to a pc via USB, the phone would be seen as a usb pen drive, directly accessing the sd card. I also remember it was only for WM5.

But I switched to Trinity, so now I'm looking for it through all of the forum: I hate to be the lazy b*stard, but I've been searching for the past hour to no avail: every time I key in usb, half of the threads in the forum show up, obviously...

So anybody remember what it's called?

Thanks for any help or indication

WM5Storage

After install you must goto settings> Comunications> USB to PC and uncheck that setting for WM5Storage to work properly. Hope this helps.

Just give me a error... "failed to disable RNDIS to use Serial"

you might need to shut down any background apps that are running. I had WisBar advance running when I tryed and it would not even bring up the screen. When I shut Wisbar down i was able to change the setting. could be a background app or today plugin that is interfering with it.

I think it's probably AvtiveSync, which is almost always runnig in the background, that is causing the error when you uncheck the USB>PC setting.

I solved this problem by deleting (temporary) my com connection to my bluetooth device (GPS).

As i tweak so much over time on my system, my DHCP client was turned off.

That's why my RNDIS device could not connect.

Through my local PC it needed to connect to the network DHCP server. CE seems to do this through XP's DHCP client services.

Turning these services on created the "advanced network connection" to work.

Big advantage to connect like this instead of turning off the RNDIS module and connect through 'normal' USB, is that my PC will now recodnize and automaticaly change from my private phone to my work phone (WM6.0 and WM6.1)

Network capability of my phone is achieved by having the right ip address in the 'external NDIS module' (networkcards). I had to do this manualy. Don't know why but; hey... Without network, still all Active sync options can be used, like installing or removing software, opening the mobile registry etc.

So: 6.1 can turn off the advanced network capability. My 6.0 with a lot of tools cannot.

But They both work better with my PC if I leave it turned on and turn on the DHCP client of my local PC.!

I hope this helps. It was a lovely solution after 5 hours of reading threads.
