Windows 7 generic RNDIS with Win Mobile HTC – Solution

I recently posted the problem at the bottom of this blog, while trying to get my HTC TYTN to work with Windows 7 either via USB or bluetooth.  Well good news I found a solution.

  1. From WinMob menu select Settings, then click the connections tab
  2. Now click USB to PC
  3. Make sure the “Enable advanced network functionality” check box is EMPTY

Now when you connect your WinMo device it will install other drivers and everything, including Bluetooth works (well at least it did for me)

RNDIS problem with Windows 7

There is only one unresolved problem and that is when trying to connect my mobile phone to the laptop.  Whether by bluetooth or USB cable Windows 7 detects that something has been connected and tries to install drivers but then reports an error with the RNDIS drivers.  Anybody help?
