I have an XDA Orbit and each time I sync it with my Sony Vaio S4XP it disconnects the W Lan which will not reconnect until I reboot the laptop. Anyone else had this problem as its now getting a bit monotonous
I've had this problem b4 and found the answer on these forums. The sames now happening again after flashing Meschle's new O2 Prem v2 Rom. I've tried a few different searches but now cab't see it.
I remeber I had to download something, I've tried reinstalling Active sync 4.5 but no good.
Its like connecting the orbit removes the wireless stuff on my laptop.
Ta in advance

Dear All
Please help: I have an O2 XDA IIs which MS Activesync 4.1 does not detect, despite all my efforts during the last few days (I also have an old iPAQ 1940 which Activesync detects fine).
The XDA is from work, so could it be that it is somehow locked, and if so, how can I unlock it?
Also, as an alternative, can I sync the XDA with my PC via Bluetooth through the iPAQ's?
Any ideas will be gratefully received!
Many thanks in advance,
L
Hi there,
I've Looked through hundreds of forums and although I have seem similiar I haven't found a resolution to my exact problem.
Due to the fact that I've been trying to resolve this issue on and off all day it's probably something really simple... :roll:
HISTORY
PDA
Was running WM2003SE on a Xda IIS.
PC
ActiveSync 3.8 on Laptop with Windows 2000 SP4 and all updates. Laptop on a home LAN with router. No firewall software and have since removed all Spyware removal software, (after doing one last scan).
My Task \ Issue \ Problem
I wanted to to the upgrade to WM2005 and followed all the usual procedures. The one mistake I may have made was to install the very very latest 4.1 Activesync without removing 3.8. However at this stage my XDA was still on 2003SE and synced perfectly with 4.1 Activesync.
I performed the upgrade to WM2005 including patches and as far as the XDA is concerned everything appears to be working.
Activesync however doesn't work. Via the USB cradle Windows 2000 detected a device and under device properties it's was listed as Generic RNDIS, it's now listed as a windows mobile based-device. I don't have an entry in my network connections, although I think this only happens with Windows XP. I've tried uninstalling Activesync, removing the rapi.dll file, reinstalling etc, I even did the former and removed entries within the registry and running a registry fixer but to no avail.
I then decided the Bluetooth route but cannot sync via this method either. I can actually succesfully connect from PC to XDA and vice versa but cannot use these connections for Activesync.
I have another Hard Drive for this Laptop which I use for testing. I can simply shut down, swap drives and boot again to another build. The other build is also Windows 2000 with SP4 and pretty much nothing else. I've installed Activesync 4.1 onto this machine, plugged in the cradle and everything works fine.
So..... I know the XDA is fine, The cradle's okay and Activesync 4.1 actually works with my XDA OS. The problem is it doesn't work on one particular build. I believe this is actually a Activesync issue but due to some form of conflict with my build. It's currently out of the question for me to rebuild so my mission is to find out what's conflicting.
Just to summarise though..... Activesync 4.1 was working fine, I upgraded XDA to WM2003 to WM2005 and then it stopped. The other harddisk proves that Activesync does actually work with my XDA.
Pheeeew...... I hope somebody doesn't suggest lack of information.... :lol: :lol:
So the reason for the post?? Well if anybody else is having frustrations, (which I'm sure I'm not the only one judging my my searching), your not alone.
I think a lot of people's problems have actually been resolved by the latest version of Activesync, (4.1), and other people have resolved by sorting out the main culprit of firewalls.
For me though I'll keep searching..... if any of you can think of any other ideas I can use for diagnosing the problem I'll appreciate it.
Thanks in advance..... sorry for the waffle.....
RESOLVED
Okay.... During further searching I noticed people mentioning VPN clients interfering.
I did have SecureRemote VPN installed which I use for work purposes.
I uninstalled SecureRemote but had to uninstall & re-install Activesync again. This time it's working.....
I will, (but not tonight), re-install the VPN client and see what happens. If Activesync countinues to work then, apart from being happy, it's worth making a note of.
If it doesn't work then I'll start to investigate why...... I know the new active sync does some form of IP connection but I cannot accept that it won't work with VPN's installed.
use windows XP (SP2) ...
first install the activesyn and then restart your computer.
then attach your pocket pc with usb cable.
and try to connect.
its works for me...
Hi,
I have a problem and maybe somebody can help.
Suddenly I stopped connecting with activesync.
When I connect my BA it automaticaly connects as Guest, but don't allow me to do anything. I cannot explore the BA, install things, syncronize, etc ...
My BA has WM5 and I tryed with AS4 and AS4.1 and both on my desktop and laptop. I have the same problem in both computers.
After I installed WM5 I could syncronise and everything. Just some weeks ago this happened.
BTW, sorry for my english
Thanks in advanced,
PSH
No ideas ???
have you tried deleting all the partnerships in active synch?
Then I would kill active synch process ( wcescomm.exe) and restart active synch and let it discover the phone as if it was the first time it had seen it.
Hopefully it should set up a new partnership (not as a guest) and that should fix it.
Ya. I've done that before with no luck.
More ideas ?
how are u connecting to the device? in the cradle or over BT or Wifi?
In the cradle. Over Wifi is not possible under WM5.
I saw in the foruns somebody saying that he had a similar problem and turned out to be the contacts corrupted, but did not say how he solved it.
I send him a pm, but with no answer.
How can we clear the contacts files ? Only with a hard reset ?

Try a different cable. if it doesnt stil Sync, then possible the phone connection house is busted.

I bought my Hermes a couple days ago, and of course the first thing I did was get rid of WM5 for WM6.
The system runs great and I can actually read English, unlike Kanji.
One exception to my high praise is Internet Sharing... the TyTn ROM I flashed the system with seemed to come with a broken sharing app... no big deal, I went on the internet and downloaded it, installed it, and proceeded to watch it not work. The app actually DOES launch now, but when you press the connect button, it quickly cycles on, then back off in the matter of about a second.
If anyone can help, it would be greatly appreciated.... I need tethered internet as soon as possible!
Thanks in advance.
Just a quick bump, anyone think they know why my internet sharing won't stay on?
Oh also, my phone tells me that it detected an unknown USB device attached to it and asks for the driver.. even when it's not connected to anything.
Problems with internet sharing
I also have problems with internet sharing on my Hermes (MDA Vario II) with WM6 Black Satin. Most of the times once I have disconnected from the internet and try to connect later it doesnt connect saying it can not connect due to some unknown reason. Only after a software reset does it begin to work again. Never had this problem on WM5 and have tried closing Activesync completely before reattempting a connection to no avail.
Anybody with an understanding of the problem or solution ?
Guys, i am using Orbit and recently got one problem.
To delete my pictures i resetted the phone by using Clear Storage menu and putting 1234 keys. Since then the device doesnt connects to the PC via Active sync, tried every thing i can but invain.Also my preinstalled Copilot stopped working aswell, the Autorun file doesnt work and install on the device.
It seems its a minor problem for someone, but to me its a headache, i will be gratefull if anyone helps me.
cheers
