Which Operating system is your pc running? xp (sp2 or 3) or vista (x32 or x64)

Vista x32

Ok so you have done this?
SPECIAL INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS FOR MICROSOFT VISTA USERS

Microsoft Vista is a very secure environment and for good reasons it objects to some of the things that CrackUtil does within the Program Files folder.

Under Microsoft Vista you need to take additional step is needed after installation on all versions.

Right click on the CrackUtil icon and scroll to Properties.



Select Properties and then on the next panel, select Compatability and then click Run this program as an administrator. This only need to be done once right after installation.



Note the check in the Run this program as an administrator box.

This only has to be done once.

This procedure needs to be repeated for the program javaloader.exe which resides in the C:\Program Files\CrackUtil folder with CrackUtil.

Sorry about the repost, but I thought you wouldn't see if I edited.

Did this as well and still nothing

Damm... I was sure that would do it. Let do a little digging on this. It just doesn't make sense how it works for some and not others. Your not the only one, this has been problem for lots of people. I fun into it with explaining the keyboard and mms fix.

I read all 13 pages of the original crackutil thread from pete6. A handful of people have the same problem as you. He still cant figure out whats causing it. OK, so I have been trying to get the errors your getting in Crackutil. The only way I can get the errors is if DM is also running. So there might be a chance DM is running on your pc in the background some how. So try this. plug your phone and connect to DM. Once it connects correctly, unplug phone and close DM. Now bring up your task manager, (right-click on bottom right of task bar were your time is and select task manager)




make sure neither of these two highlighted processes are running. Now plug in your phone and run crackutil. The proccesses you should see in the task manager will be labeled CrackUTIL.exe. See if that helps at all. If not will, I'll look some more.

I had the same problem what I did to fix the problem was unistall and re-instal the DM and that should fix the problem with the crack Util , well it fixed the problem with me.

Thanks wildcards. I'm hopeful this is the answer. When you re-install, did you go back to 4.7 or did you downgrade.

can't hurt

UGH!!!

Still don't work hmmmm. . . i might just wait and see if he releases a new version to fix's this problem

Not to worry. Worst case is you just have do it without crackutil. All of the fixes can be done without it, it just takes a little longer. What were you trying to fix with crackutil, I'm sure I can find a way to fix it without using crackutil
