First time I try to deploy a project on a Symbol PPT8846. And I got a
deployment error.

This is on the About window of the Symbol:
Pocket PC Version 4.20.10.81 (Build 13100)
Processor: ARM XScale

This is what I did:
- Created a new device app
- Selected Deployment Device - Pocket PC Device - Is that correct?

I am able to synchronize through ActiveSync.

I've downloaded the 2003 Emulator, and was able to run this app.

This is the result of the output window:
------ Build started: Project: SmartDeviceApplication4, Configuration:
Release Pocket PC ------
Preparing resources...
Updating references...
Performing main compilation...
Building satellite assemblies...
Visual Studio is ready to deploy SmartDeviceApplication4

------ Deploy started: Project: SmartDeviceApplication4, Configuration:
Release Pocket PC ------

Deploying to Pocket PC Device using TCP Connect Transport

Error: Cannot establish a connection. Be sure the device is physically
connected to the development computer.
---------------------- Done ----------------------

Build: 1 succeeded, 0 failed, 0 skipped
Deploy: 0 succeeded, 1 failed, 0 skipped

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks in advance.

When you install Visual Studio First and then Active sync
3.7 a problem like yours occurs, try repairing your
Visual Studio installation.
Also do a soft reset to your symbol device.

I did install the last version from ActiveSync 3.7.1 yesterday.
Thanks. I will try that.
This error message is very vague, it needs to be something more descriptive.
I will post what I find later.
 
Hi Ronald,

What I did:
I did an "Add or remove features" of VS.
Removed Vb - smart device and C# - smart device.
And then added it back in.
Rebooted computer.
And then did a hard reset on the Pocket PC.
It worked!

Thanks a lot!
