I have Vista and cannot install the mobile device center.. it begins installing, and then reverts and stops. Any ideas? My cingular 8125 will not sync! When I go to devices, it basically has an exclamation next to it as it cannot find driver.

Here’s some news that should brighten your day:

If you use RegEdit to add a key called “WHOS” under the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/Software/Microsoft key in the registry, connect your Windows Mobile 5.0 device and go to Windows Update, a new 7.0MB update will be available that enables Windows Mobile Device Center.

I’m extremely happy to report no connection problems on my Windows Mobile 5 Smartphone (T-Mobile SDA) OR my WM5 PDA Phone (Cingular 8125). Plus it’s stable and about 10 times faster than ActiveStink.

Plain and simple. I get so tired of having to reset my device, kill the ActiveSync task and restart it to get the device to connect. It is just too inconsistent and unstable. When I used to put my Palm device in the cradle and hit sync it just worked. Everytime. When I put my WM5 device in the cradle I have a 50-50 chance of it connecting and doing what it is supposed to do. Please MSFT - just make it work right. I would be most thankful for just that.</p> </div>

I’ve gotta say “Wifi Synchronisation” since you didn’t :p

Also, if they’re remodelling it like it sounds, I think they would’ve been better just treating it like everything else and having it updated bit by bit, reather than removing it and returning it, when they could have some pretty bad flaws.

Anything has to be better than ActiveSync – it’s a cludge!
