Can Not Connect Active Sync 3.8 .NET 2003 Professional

[Alamo]

I have the .NET installed 2003 Professional. Before having installed it had
the version Activate Sync 3.7.1, and now I have installed the new version
3.8, but already I cannot connect and debugged from the environment .NET .
The .NET environment says that I cannot connect to the device.

The connection activates sync it works well and gives me connected and I can
explore the files of the device.

Someone knows how can I solve the problem without having to return to
install everything?

My Pocket pc has Windows Mobile 2003. (hp 2210).

Thanks.

Best Regards

Alamo

My colleague had the same problem. He installed ActiveSync 3.8 Traditional
Chinese,
and then he can not debug with VS.NET 2003.

Before that happened, he worked well with ActiveSync 3.7.1 + VS.NET 2003.
After that, it doesn't work to reinstall ActiveSync 3.7.1 ...
It's awful...

Anyone else have the same problem?

This is from the Smart Client Developer FAQ:

11.5. Why am I unable to deploy to devices through ActiveSync after
uninstalling ActiveSync?

Symptom: The "deployment error" message box occurs on Ctrl-F5 or F5 after
ActiveSync has been uninstalled. Uninstalling ActiveSync typically happens
when the user upgrades ActiveSync, e.g. from version 3.5 to 3.6.

Cause: ConMan relies on some registry values under
"HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows CE Services\ProxyPorts" for
deployment and debugging through ActiveSync. These registry values are
removed when ActiveSync is uninstalled.

Workaround: Reinstall or repair Visual Studio .NET 2003.
A simpler fix is to import ProxyPorts.reg which can be found in the WinCE
utilities folder: "<VSROOT>\CompactFrameworkSDK\WinCE Utilities\WinCE Proxy
Ports Reg" . If you do not have this file it can be downloaded from the
following link:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...086-b0cc-7c6c39b28762&DisplayLang=en#filelist

The device may need to be un-cradled/re-cradled or soft rebooted to make the
fix take effect.
It is recommended that users never uninstall ActiveSync. To upgrade
ActiveSync, you should directly install the new version which will correctly
override the old one.
