[Q] Optimus One: Unable to sync contacts with PC - Optimus One, P500, V General

Dear All,
I have an LG Optimus One. I have google mail and office's microsoft exchange mail. All my contacts on the phone automatically came due to exchange server.
I wanted to sync my phone with home PC so that any new contacts created at home / office are synced.
Problem: The Optimus One does not syn with home PC. (It automatically sync with Office PC via exchange server).
Solutions tried:
1) Tried using LG PC Suite that came with the phone to sync contacts with home PC. It does not syn even a single contact.
2) Tried the updated PC sync.
3) Tried the LG outlook sync.
4) Even tried syncsquare - it also did not sync a single contact.
I have attached the screenshot for your reference.
Please let me know how to sync the Optimus One's contacts with home PC. I have both windows and Gentoo Linux at home and hence can use any OS to sync.
Thanks a ton in advance.
Regards,

Enable wireless u will be able to sync after that.

Hi,
First of all go to settings->SD card and phone
storage->uncheck 'Mass storage only' option. Now connect
the phone to the PC via USB. A green android bot will
appear which will notify you that the USB is connected. Now
you have 2 options:
1)Select 'Turn on USB storage' on the phone. The green bot
will now turn orange.(Alternatively, you can open the
notification bar and press upon 'Select to copy files
to/from your computer') Now you can access your memory card
through your computer. To disconnect press 'Turn off USB
storage' on the phone
2)To connect via PC suite: When the green bot appears,
don't select 'turn on usb storage'. Just open PCsuite and
select 'connect phone'. Now you will be able to sunchronize
your phone with the PC and also be able to update your
phone.

I can't even sync anything Tried everything, so I went to using the device to backup itself and sync with the cloud.

Hi All,
I have tried everything. The device is not connected as 'mass storage' when connected by USB.
The device is found by PC Suite (See screen shot) but is does not sync any contact.
Please help. I have more than 1000 entries in my address book on the Droid (ie. I got it from my Exchange Server).
Regards,

same problem for me
The PCsuite sees phone, it starts sync but after one minute the message "No response from phone" appears... Any help?

Any solution for this problem? My LG PC Suite crashes when I try to sync anything. Stupid.

yeah, mine too. I'm using w7 32 bits and it keeps crashing when I try to sync. i gave up and sync via google contacts.

Is it a windows 7 specific problem?
I tried installing LG pc suite IV on 3 different PC's (all windows 7 64 bit), but I can't sync contacts. Also, superoneclick crashes when i try to root it. The details of the phone are:
Android Version: 2.2.1
LG software version: V10c
Kernel version: 2.6.32.9
Please let me know if anyone else has found a solution to this problem. Else I will have to find a PC running XP

AS4 Problem

Hi,
[ first of all - Thanks BUZZZZ ]
I've installed wm2k5 on my qtec2020, it works just fine but..
i can't synchronize my pocket with PC (i've done everything as described on: http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=20505 )
I've got AS4, win XP/SP2. tried on 2 computers.
every time i'm getting an error like on atteched screenshot..
Please help..
UPDATE: i've just discovered that i can explore my device.. but i can't synchronize :-/
Try a other download of ActiveSync, Link
This is Active Sync 4.0 Build 4343
I've got the same you've posted
It doesn't help
UPDATE: I can explore even If i choose to synchronize only notes and files it works. Only problem is with synchronization with outlook 2003.
The problem seems to be with outlook 2003 not being the default email client. Go to Outlook under Help menu choose detect and repair. Reboot once it finished and try.
Shikra: If i click on "mailto" link - outlook 2003 opens, so i think that outlook is default e-mail clinet. Detect& repair was first thing which i've made.
on AS 3.8 everything was just fine..
Active Sync 4.0
Active Sync is working fine for me now.
1. Make sure MS Outlook not running before new install
2. Turn off Windows Firewall
3. Uninstall previous Versions of Active Sync
4. Reboot PC
5. Install AS V4.0
6. Reboot PC
7. Power on XDA
8. Connect XDA to PC.....should now work
Sh*t.. Still nothing. What's going on? I have to go work.. Without my contacts??
Maybe it's outlooks fault? It is in polish.. I'm going crazy
Took me 3 installs and uninstalls before I got rid of the same error you have.

It`s on the memory card!!

Not sure if anyone has been looking fot them or if anyone knows, BUT the Hero manual and HTC sync are loaded onto the supplied memory card.
Just connect it to your pc select notifications at the top of your hero then you you should see USB connected. Select it and then select mount. It then sees your Hero as a USB drive. Just drag and drop the files onto your pc`s desktop. Then install HTC sync. It then allows you to sync contacts in outlook etc.
I've got a real problem!
Just got the Hero home, WITHOUT knowing HTC Sync was on the card...
Turned it on... the SD was indicating as broken... "please format"... so I did... no more HTC Sync...
Is there a place I can donwload it from? I tried the HTC Support website... but it can not find the phone on either PC...!
Can anyone Help please?!

dont even bother trying htc sync if youre running win 7 x64, it simply doesnt work... even if you install the vista driver manually from the android sdk, i ended up importing my contacts into my google mail account and syncing over the air, better that way anyway as it is always sync'd live.
It should sync with win 7 64bit if you install the Dream driver

yah but we want the htc rom update utility ,...how to get that the serial no doesnt match
I've got it working under Windows 7 x64. You just need the Windows Vista x64 drivers and a copy of dpinst.exe and you should be good to go. I can mail you dpinst when I get home if you pm your address.
If there's a need for it, I can create a msi package that will install the drivers automatically (but not until at least the weekend).

Problem with Lg Pc Suite III + Windows 7 32bit

Lg suit correctly installed, but not working yet on my Win7...
The suit recognizes the phone, but there is no way to sync anything or accessing messages/files as well...
I tried reinstalling both P500 drivers and Lg suite...
Anyone having the same problem?
have you tried myphoneexplorer? I think now it works with android phones
=_= U need PC suite IV not III
hmm....
Firstly you don't need to download the PC Suite from LG, because it's on that 2GB SD Card installed in the phone. Just connect the phone to your pc as mass storage and open the card with explorer. You'll find the software there.
Secondly, both PC Suite and MyPhoneExplorer work great with P500! For MyPhoneExplorer, however, you must activate the Debug mode.

Turn on USB debugging, do not activate mass storage when you been asked.
i also have the same problem
and nothing works
Same Issue
I have tried with USB Debugging on as well as off. It recognizes the phone and pops up the error without initiating step 2.
The worst part is that it sometimes works. I have not idea what the trigger is but one in about 10 tries it sync everything.
So fortunately I do have my contacts but my appointments are often out of sync.
Am downloading myphoneExplorer, would be great if someone can confirm if it also exports the images associated with the numbers in the outlook contacts list.
Cheers,
Vikram.
I had the same "phone not responding" while i was getting my contacts from outllok.
But i turn on the wifi and all went well.
I think turning on wifi will automaticly turn on syncing procedure.
Just a small bug i guess.
Cheers
Zecanilis, thanks a lot for your finding. I was struggling for two days to find out what could be the cause of intermittent syncing. Maybe this bug is not present in newer versions of firmware. Can anyone confirm? My phone has V10B firmware.
BTW, latest LG PC Suite 4 is 4.2.42.20101021. I uploaded it here. You can always got the latest version of PC Suite bundle by using LG Mobile Support Tool which you can download here.
One solution
I always have my wifi on so don't think that that should matter, did a restart of my system and tried it worked, no idea what the dependency is.
However myphoneExplorer works great, syncs with USB or with wifi as well. Atleast there is an option to get my contacts and appointment.
Any idea why the tasks / memo is disabled for syncing ?

[Q] Kies won't connect to phone

Hi Guys,
Just switched over from iPhone 3GS to S2 but am having slight teething problems.
I would like to connect to Kies so I may upload my contacts from outlook on to the S2 but the status is stuck on connecting with a circle spinning next to it on kies.
I uninstalled kies, reinstalled it. Running version 2.0.2.11071_128. Rebooted the pc many times and each time I open kies trying to connect the status is stuck on connecting.
I installed drivers thru kies but to no avail. The pc won't even recognise the phone as a usb storage device and doesn't list it under my computer.
All I get is a window popup which says mtp error ivc or something like that.
Help...
I had that exact same MTP problem with my S8500. Did everything I could do, but none worked. Finally it got solved after installing Win 7 x64/x86. I know that sounds crazy but all I know is that.
Regards.

You don't say what your PC is running.
maybe try a full windows update then re-install Kies ?
I have Win XPon my desktop and Win 7 on my laptop.
I've installed same version of Kies on both of my computers.
XP doesn't recognise MTP device, but Win7 does.
I think maybe it's driver problem. There's Windows Driver Kit on Microsoft's website. I didn't try it, already using Kies on Win7.
Who else have driver issues, maybe could try driver kit and feedback?!
I have the Win XP Pro and Win 7 Home Premium X64.
After I install the Kies, everything works fine.
You may try to uncheck USB Debugging under Settings -> Applications -> Development. I am not sure if it can help you. However, Kies cannot connect to my GS II when I checked USB Debugging.
If you want to import your contacts into your GS II, I recommend you should import them into your gmail. (I do believe that importing contacts into gmail is a better method for the Android users)
I found an article on importing contacts into gmail.
(Sorry that I can't post the outside link here. You may search "Outlook contact to gmail" in Google. The first link should help you.)
After importing the contacts into your gmail, you can sync the contacts between your phone and your gmail.
Hope that I can help you!
On Windows remove MTP driver and reinstall without kies (plug SGS2, wait)
try to connect with debugging USB ON, the OFF (it is working when USB debug , bug )

[Q] HTC Sync Manager Doesn't See Phone (SOLVED - See Post #7)

I have the latest version of Sync Manager loaded on my Windows 7 PC. When I connect my HTC One with the USB cable, my PC sees the HTC One as a connected Portable Device and pops up the AutoPlay window with options of what to do with the device. However, the HTC Sync Mgr window says there is no phone connected. Notifications in the phone says that USB is connected and the USB debugging is connected.
What do I need to do to get Sync Manager to see the phone and to sync my Outlook Calendar and Contacts? Help would be most appreciated. TIA!
This is NUTS!!

This is really nuts. I have an email plus attachment from HTC Support telling me that I have to perform a Selective Startup on Win 7 in order to sync my HTC One with the HTC Sync Manager in Win 7.
I never had to do this with my Vivid!
Looks like I need to return the HTC One to the store and get a Samsung!
That's a silly reason to get a Samsung

Not silly at all! If the HTC One cannot be used to sync Microsoft Outlook Calendars and Contacts, it is not fully usable; and as such, needs to be replaced - be it with another HTC One that works properly or a Samsung.
FWIW, HTC Support has had me try a variety of different things, including trying to get the HTC One to be recognized and sync with HTC Sync Manager on a different computer. Same results, Both computers can see the HTC One, but HTC Sync Mgr will not recognize the device; and give the message "Phone not connected".
That points at the HTC One as being the problem - either hardware or software settings. HTC Support does not want to look there.
I guess it goes back to the store for an exchange.
Finally, A Solution
After multiple uninstalls and reinstalls of the HTC Sync Manager and a variety of other ineffective suggestions at the behest of HTC Support, it seems that the HTC One driver was not installed on my PC.
The solution was to update or refresh the driver in the PC Device Manager while the HTC One is connected to the PC by the USB cable
The path to the driver for Win 7/64 is: C:\Program Files_x86>>HTC>HTC Driver>Driver Files>Win7_x64
Then Double click the androidusb.inf file. Restart your PC and you should be good to go.
Unsuccessful attempts had been made to do this with the HTC One NOT connected to the PC.
Once the refresh/update was completed with the HTC One connected, a restart of the PC was required; and, once restarted, away we went.:victory:
It really took far too many contacts with HTC:Support to get this thing resolved!
Flash in the Pan
Well, I was able to get HTC Syn Mgr to recognize and sync my Outlook Calendar and Contacts to the HTC One device yesterday one time.
Since then I have not been able to repeat the action; and HTC Sync Mgr absolutely will not recognize or sync the HTC One today. :crying: I think I need to take it back and exchange it for another one.
This problem is the same with two different USB cables and two different PC's. The only thing common is the single HTC One device.
An interesting side note. The calendars that did sync the one time are all synced one day off from the dates in Outlook.
Won't Play on the Same Playground
HTC Syn Manager will not play on the same playground as other sync software, even if that software is not active.
I had to uninstall ASUS Sync. Then uninstall HTC Sync Manager and it's co-workers; and then reinstall it.
It now works as it's supposed to work.
HTC is aware of this, but actually seems to like the fact that they make you remove the ASUS software for the HTC Sync Mgr to work.
When I suggested that they need to update HTC Sync Mgr so that it will play on the same playground as other sync software, their answer in not so many words was essentially "Don't hold your breath."

Thank you for the information, but I cannot get it to work, I do not seem to be able to update the driver. The androidusb.inf file just opens in Notepad if I access it directly and if I try updating via Device manager, it says all is up to date and I am not even able to choose the file, only the directory with the file. Would you please have any ideas what I might be doing wrong?
I am running Ignorance V5 custom rom on my HTC One V and these problems started only after installing it.

Hi everyone,
i have a problem with htc sync, too. When i connect my HTC with my PC (Win7) and start the HTC Sync Manager, then first it says: phone connected (loading data). After one minute it says: device unavailable. please reconnect your device [4]. I reinstall the newest driver, the newest HTC Sync Manager, restart both my HTC and my Computer, but nothing worked. Can someone help me? I have the newest ViperRom (7.0.2) with ElementalX Kernel (18.0).

Follow nkk71's FAQ Question #2. You might also just uninstall HTC Sync Mgt (keep the drivers), a lot of folks don't use it because it can be problematic.

Thanks for your answer. I will try it. Unfortunately I need HTC sync manager to copy some playlist from iTunes on my HTC one. Because I know where my music I have on iTunes is, but there it is sorted by interpreters (Windows explorer), but I only want to copy some playlist, and it is not easy to create all these playlist again on my HTC one...

THANK YOU! 2 hrs of dicking around when my wife's HTC One M8 would no longer sync ... tried everything and stumbled onto this post. Had to install from device manager update driver rather than double click. But this manual effort worked. I remember on many of the reinstalls the Android driver did not install and then didn't show as in error ... Can't tell you how much I appreciate you sharing this. Outlook syncs fine every time ... Don't have any ASUS stuff on my desktop. Would a boot into safe mode or msconfig clean boot solve the ASUS conflict?
Its keeps saying "update needed" and "this device needs to connect with the latest version of HTC Sync Manager. Please checkup for update or download". What confuses me is that I have the latest version of Sync and my phone shows up for one second and then the message pops up. Can anyone help?
BTW I started experiencing this after unlocking my bootloader.
but i couldnt see androidusb.inf file in the folder you mentioned.
