1. I know I can import Contact information from SIM card to device, but is there any way I can do the reverse since over time contacts changes?
(I have a back-up phone which is nothing more then just a plain ole' Samsung - so if ever I need to switch from my BA device to the phone I have an updated phone book on my SIM card)
2. Recently the battery came off my phone for a few short seconds while in a purse. Upon putting it back on I realized the phone did a hard reset! (I don't know why either!) The purse was practically empty (two wallets and receipts) and had nothing in it that could have started the reset. When I got home and tried to sync, ActiveSync coudln't recognize the phone and wanted to start a new partnership. Anything I can do in the future to prevent this from occuring again - Activesync not recognizing the phone?? I had to delete the partership the computer and start over.
3. In Outlook I have two Contacts list (1 personal and 1 business). I would like to keep them seperate but it seems like Activesync will only sync one contact list at a time. I know I can assign categories and sort them but life is easier keeping them seperate. Any way to do this or a program that wil do this?
THANKS!!!
BUMP!!!
Sorry to do this but some one out there can answer at least one of these questions right???
THANKS!

I have an MDA compact (Magician), and there I can simply mark the contacts I want to copy to the SIM in my list of contacts, then tap-n-hold and select "Save to SIM".

Yes. Make sure that you regularily do backups using Active Sync. Then, next time a hard reset happens, connect your PocketPC to the PC and choose Guest Partnership. Now, just go to Extras - Save/Restore in Active Sync, and restore a backup. After the restore completed, disconnect the PocketPC, soft-reset it, then re-connect. It will now simply use your old partnership.

I do not know of any way to do that. Maybe someone else does - if yes, I would also be very interested!

First, yes, you can have 2 separate contact lists in Outlook. Just create new folder "that will contain contacts" or something to that effect.
Next, download the MS add-on that will let you sync 2 lists. Maybe part of the powertoys or something like that. Definitely out there. Seen it.
Outlook Add In
Thanks....Tadzio!!! Your info was a real big help!!
Has any one heard or found this Outlook add in? I searched all over Microsoft's website and couldn't find it???
What is a power toy??
Thanks!
I upgraded to Schap's WM6 Pro 3.54b ROMs from my Vista, but after the upgrade and sync back the contact & appointment on the first time at night, the next day, the contacts are gone, and the phone no longer be sync to my computer.......
Now I try to back up using SPBackup, but then the contact's application couldn't even launch.....any expert can help solve the problem for me?
Big Thanks in advance......
Sound like you need to upgrade Active Sync
I had similar problem, make sure you didn't sync up as guest.
Otherwise, when it happened to let last time, i check my deleted files on Outlook on the computer and just simply restored my contact files etc.
I really don't know much else, hope what i mentioned helps. i know it's bit vague only because i did it trial by error, and i think i got most of my contacts back.
But i'm using XP and active sync 4.2 i think..
Guess different issues.
My problem seems to be different as there are two problems.
1. the Remote mobile adapter is connected, but the Vista's mobile center doesn't launch and can't recongzie the device.
2. The contact program on the device can't be launch......
Now I can't even re-swap the rom on the device, and it just stuck.... Right now I am using Excel mobile to check on my contacts, and that's stupid
Please help.........
Try deleting ur old parnetership from Vista mobile sync center. and hard resetting your phone again.
hope this helps
i just posted about this too
hard reset sorted out my device, i was geting unknown device and a driver issue for active sync and internet sharing
Whilst the phone is NOT connected through USB, ensure the following:
From START menu --> Programs --> ActiveSync --> Menu --> Options (Choose the connection you use in case more than one) --> Settings (under "If thre is a conflict" choose "Keep the item on my device").
Hope this will help.
I found the problem now
Hi all,
I now figure the issue as I can sync with another computer, and I think the problem is on my vista. However, After I uninstall the window mobile center, I can't reinstall it. seems after I update the driver, it doesn't recongize my device.
Can anyone tell me what are the files and registry that control the connection between my Hermes & my computer, and maybe if I can delete it all, and add it back, it will be ok.... that is just my guess, and I don't know how to do that,please help me.......Thanks
I need your help on this. I have tried to sync both messchle's 6.1 roms (4.01 touch and 4.0 vanilla) at home and at work. Everytime I sync for the 3rd time (1 home, 2 work and 3 back home again) I get this same error (86000107) on activesync.
Googling for the sollution ive tried all options (new outlook profile, new partnerships, hard reset, etc.) which would work for a while (1st and 2nd time) but would again hick up at the third time i would sync.
Today i found this thread on the Hermes XDA forum:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=368821
It appears to be the same problem and trouble in solving it. I am wondering if I am the only artemis user with this problem. Perhaps its a WM6.1 issue like was mentioned in their thread. Is Tom's rom any better so this last suggestion can be invalidated?
Will you help on this? Any info?
It would be a great pity if I would have to downgrade to 6.0...
Buggy Wm 6.1?????
BUMP!
75 views and not a single reply! If this problem is related tot WM6.1 i would have expected a little more response, since there are lots of new roms which come out lately.
Well, ive downgraded tot 6.0 anyway and all the syncproblems are solved again. So my best guess is that 6.1 is BUGGY if you want to sync your PPC on 2 pc's!
have been using the wm6.1 now for as long as it's out, bb5.0 from tom and the vanilla and touch versions from meschle now.
have used active sync on my home pc and on the laptop with out any problem.
USB to PC dashed out, cause dashed it always gave me probs active syncen a few time after eachother.
Twiggerdingo, face the same issue today at office. Fix it removing "Task", then "Contact" from the list of stuff to synchronize. Then, put them back and it works now like a charm.
Hope it helps.
Thank you for your fast replies on my post! Happy to see that you have everything working! I use tasks (approx 100) and appointments (700 total upcomming and last 2 weeks?) and depend a lot on it.
I saw the 'tasks' sollution as well and already tried it of course, but it made no difference. Sometimes it works, but then another day it did not. I do not have the time to solve it this way on a daily basis, and with me, the problem came back about 4 times a week (home and at work, on different occasions).
Hope the will be more info on this - and what causes it. Thanks again for your replies.

Although leaving TASK unchecked will temporary fix the problem, but that means you cannot sync TASK.
If you want to fix it properly, please follow these steps:
1: unplug usb cable if you are still connecting it with your WINDOWS MOBILE
2: Open MS Outlook (I m using 2007 as an example), go to File- > New -> Outlook Data File , and create a new PST file (what ever name/ location)
3: In outlook, Tools ->Account settings, then click Data Files tab, click the new PST file that you had just created, and set as default , then restart outlook
4: delete activesync partnership in both Windows Mobile and in your Desktop
5: Plug the WM to the USB port, and it should sync properly again.
6: restore the backup by using MS Outlook's Import and export function
It worked!
i have same problem, my solution:
first backup all data in phone (contacts, messages, calendar, ...)
check which category is problem (Contacts, Calendar, Task, ...) - in setting remove all checkboxes and let synchronize, then add one category and synchronize go on until you get error
uncheck problem category, delete all data in PC in problem category and let synchronize again then add category back - should be ok

Ive tried this as well and yes it worked (for a while). 2 syncs later the same thing reoccured. Strange thing is that pre 6.1 roms give me no problems whatsoever.

Just joining this thread.. yes it happens to me too...
and reoccurs...
I wondered:
Is PIM backup/restore the culprit?
I have a main Pc and a laptop which share info.
Any similarities?

Suggestion
Have you tried this?
Open registry (using something like task manager). Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\Version and change from ".1.0.0" to ".4.0.2"
Let me know if that works!

This registry edit don't work for me. I have same error for calender sync between outlook 2003 and outlook 2002. Other Task and note can sync without error.
I faced the same problem a few days ago. Im using HTC Prophet and using one of WM 6.1 builds.
86000107
I have the same problem on my kaiser.
However, mine only occurs after syncing at home AND at work. If I reset my device and resync with my home machine only, the problem goes away.
(having read the 1st post again, it may be exactly the same symptom - I will syncing again at work on Monday, and then back at home.
Why are people pointing to thier PCs as the problem when the common thing with this scenario is the wm device itself, and the fact that when I hard reset, it syncs ok again... maybe there's a problem with activesync on the WM device in this multi-sync situation?

Looks like my problem is that I need to sync with microsoft exchange directly at work. I will try syncing at home again tonight and then at work tomorrow to see if the problem has gone...
Right now I deleted partnership between PC and phone and erased all stuff (contacts, notes, calendar and tasks) in Outlook (there were some deplicities anyway so I had to clean it). I created new partnership. During sync it told me that it can not sync 3 notes in calendar so I erased them and did sync again. It finished properly and its working now.
Lets see if it will stay like that.

Nope, sync'd at home and got the same error - and my calendar won't sync now...
What now. If I delete the partnerships, I can sync to either machine ok, but not both...
I wonder if it's a 6.1 problem?
I am now in the situation where syncing at work is fine - I sync direct with microsoft exchange for contacts/calendar/email/tasks and have a work profile for the notes. Great.
Now I need to be able to sync contacts/calendar/tasks/notes at home... I'll keep trying...
It seems that this 86000107 is some sort of catch-all. No-one seems to know exactly what it's all about. Is there any logging I can switch on and look at to identify the error?
same here...
Hi!
i've got the same problem:
at home I'm running Vista Home Premium SP1, Office 2007 SP1 and MS SyncCenter 6.1
at work it's XP pro SP2, Office 2003 SP3 and ActiveSync 4.5
I can sync my Kaiser (Dutty's WM6) with each single of them without a problem, but not with both - as soon i connect it to the second machine an sync starts, it gives the error 86000107
no clue what to try next...
bye,
Martin
Had the same error, many people don't flash their roms twice. I decided to give it a shot:
1: Hard-Reset your device
2: At PIN connect device then flash Touch 4.01
3: At PIN flash again Touch 4.01
4: At PIN flash radio 03.08.90
This takes some time, but now my device runs flawlessly! Try it out...

Hello there, IF this works, it would be great! are u for sure to have synced it 3times (i mean at home-work-home) after reflashing twice?
Sure the error doesn't reappear?
I now have the same problem.
After reinstalling Office 2003 and active sync the problem is still there.
I hard resetted the ROM and installed a backup that didnt have this problem, and also this didnt resolve it.
I did see that the problem is with the Calander.
It is a strainge problem because it came out of nothing
Hi all,
I have a problem that I hope you can help with. I have a TMobile Dash that isn't working. Well, everything works just fine except the screen...lol. The screen is totally black and I can't see what I'm doing. TMobile has sent me a replacement phone, as mine was still under warranty. In fact, since this is the second Dash I've had a similar problem with, they allowed me to upgrade to the Dash 3G!!
Here's my problem...My contacts were NOT saved to my SIM card and I can't see what I'm doing, on the phone. So, I've hooked the phone to my laptop, via USB, and am attempting to find my contacts, so I can at least see them, to type them into the new phone. Any suggestions where to look? ORRRR Anyway to give me button by button instructions for moving my contacts to my SIM card? LOL. I've also attempted to use Windows Mobile Device Center, but it won't let me chance Sync Content Settings because I don't have Outlook. The only Content Settings it will Sync are files, but not contacts.
Basically, I need my contacts in the new phone. I can't see the screen of the old phone. I can hook either phone to laptop though. I have Vista, so Active Sync isn't an option. I've heard that there's software, available on this forum, that will allow me to hook my phone to computer, and use computer monitor as phone screen.
Any and all suggestions would be well appreciated!!
My Mobiler
Will not sync but will allow you to see the screen and copy the contents, will still need to make a connection via active sync etc.
Stylez, thank you very much!! Worked just great!!
The other day I was stuck at the airport so I decided to thether my Tilt2 to my laptop. I did this all the time with my original Tilt, but my first time with the T2. Although I can connect the T2 to my laptop via AS (4.5, no partnership) this time the laptop saw the T2 as "new hardware" and since I don't have admin rights I could not "install." Since then whenever I connect my T2 to either my laptop or home PC (or any PC I assume) the device connects (you can hear the sound when you attach a USB device) but AS on the T2 never starts. I always forget something, but here goes:
Stock HTC/AT&T ROM
I have two partnerships, one with my work Exchange server and one with my home PC
The Exchange server partnership, via data connection, works just fine
I have tried unchecking the box under settings/connections/USB to PC/enable faster data connection
I reanabled "Ask me first about USB connection...."
I *can* connect as a "Disk Drive"
I can't just delete the USB partnership. I have to have that setup before my Exchange partnership as that enforces polices and I can't set up any new partnerships.
I probably could do a hard reset, but am hoping to avoid that
I've searched and searched, so I hope I didn't miss some easy key words.
Same stuff happening to me... What's weird is that the problem begun to show just like that, without installing any new apps or mods... Wonder why.
Unless it's a Rom related issue (running stock too atm) which I guess will be reported by other users as well..
Got it! I was trying to help somebody on another forum with a notifications problem which got me to thinking about the notifications queue. Sure enough, replog.exe was not in the queue. I ran (SK Tools) to recreate Active Sync notifications and I am back in business.

Great, will try that too then! Thanks for the info mate
Same problem
Hi ! I have the same problem as you did. Can you please give a more detailed explanation on how to recreate the ActiveSync notifications ?
Thanks a lot !
You need some way to view your queue, either SK Tools or MemMaid (www.dinarsoft.com) will work. If you use SK Tools (www.s-k-tools.com) you:
Select Notifications Queue
Tap Action (bottom left corner)
Tap Recreate ActiveSync
While in SK you might also select Mark Duplicates as dupes can cause issues as well, although more for reminders. When done you should see two repllog.exe notifications
Ok will try what you suggested. Thanks a lot ! Wish me luck !
