Black 2.5 Activesync Bluetooth problem - 8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development

Hi guys,
Just upgraded to Black 2.5 (which is kickass btw). I have been having this strange problem trying to sync Activesync over bluetooth.
I got it to work several times without problems. But recently it just stopped working.
If I click on "connect using bluetooth" in Activesync, it gives me an error:
Connection Not Valid: Cannot open the connection '#[email protected]#'. This connection is no longer valid or does not exist. Select a different connection and try again.
Activesync over usb is still working okay. I dont really want to hard reset because of this. Hoping that someone has a solution?

Posted the question too quickly.
I've found the solution myself. What I did was:
- Kill Activesync process (or soft reboot)
- Go to Bluetooth settings
- Find the PC device that you are syncing with, look at its bluetooth profiles
- There should be an "Activesync" profile ticked, remove the tick/selection
- Click SAVE
- Enter the bluetooth profiles of the PC device again.
- Click REFRESH and you should again see the "Activesync profile"
- Tick/Select the Activesync profile, and click SAVE
- Start Activesync again and click on "connect using bluetooth", it should work like normal again
I've seen this issue now with several WM6 roms - Black 2.5, 3.0, 3.0.1 and LVSW as well.

How to activesync by WiFi

Hello,
I can easyly syncronize with USB or Bluetooth.
I've set a WiFi connection to my ADSL router, it works fine, I can scan the LAN (with ScanIP) and see my PC, but no way to sync...
Though Active Sync 3.8 is installed.
Some of you succeeded, what's the magic ? ? ?
Thanks for sharing,

Cool link, added to my Favorites, thnks for shareing that with us
Superb
Excellent, if only everything was explained like this, keep it up!!!!
It was already here...
I had actually found it on this forum a few months ago...
But since I had put it into my favourites I figured it would have taken me about the same time to give it you than to tell you "go and and look for it"!
Glad it helped.

I struggled with this for awhile and could not get it working. The issue was I had was in the PC WINS setting I had left the LMHOSTS Lookup enabled. As soon as I unchecked that and had the Netbios tab checked it synced up. Thanks for the link. Now I can wifi sync.
another gotcha
I read every thread I could find on several forums regarding activesync via wifi and yet I could not get it to work. Then I finally read on a thread that the PPC network card "My network card connects to:"should be set to connect to WORK not The INTERNET. I changed that one setting and bingo, activesync instantly connected via wifi (I already had a partnership created while connected via USB). Of course to have the PPC connect to the Internet via wifi, you have to set it back but that is easy enough to accomplish.

On my SX66, I don't have to change back to "the Internet" to surf; I just leave it set to "Work".
New problem...activesync connects but
Well, I had everything working, now I have a new issue. I can successfully sync via usb and BT connects. When turn off BT and then tell activesync running on the BA to sync, activesync on both the PC and the BA indicate that they are connected (as BT is off and the BA is out of the cradle, it is obvious that they are connected via WiFi at this point). Then the "looking for changes" meter starts advancing and when it gets about 1/3 of the way finished, it just stops. Both the PC and the BA still show connected and activesync still indicates that it is trying. After several minutes of the no more progress, the PC side activesync indicates that there was a synchronization error.
Any ideas. I have uninstalled activesync 3.8 and reinstalled. I have run the outlook repair utility just in case there was something weird with my outlook pst file (it was clean).
Thanks
David
I have this problem too - I find if i soft reset the unit (and sometimes my computer too) then it works fine. anyone got any ideas?
Tried the soft reset ....
I tried the soft reset on the PPC as well as rebooting the PC and still activesync stops progressing during the sync process about 1/3 of the way thru and eventually reports the synchronization error. I have noted that during BT or usb syncing, the process pauses at the same place for just a split second and then zooms thru the remaining 2/3s of the process. It is like activesync is waiting for somekind of a handshake or acknowledgement from the PPC. I hope someone can shed some light on this.

Have you tried turning off synchronise 'Files' in the activesync options? sometimes funny files can cause this problem?
Only syncing...
The only things I am trying to sync are my contacts, tasks and calendar. I even tried unchecking even those items so that I was essentially NOT syncing anything but activesync via WiFi still stalls at about 1/3 complete. As I did have WiFi/ActiveSync working for a day or so with NO issues and nothing has changed (or I guess I should say, I changed nothing), this is a real mystery.

AS 4.5 -> Internet passthrough (100s of solutions, but none is working???)

Hi,
Since AS 4.2 came out I have problems to use USB Internet passthrough in Activesync, als AS 4.5 did not solve this problem. I googled around a lot and also searched in xda forums but everyone is giving other instructions, some say this, some say it the other way. It also does not depend on the rom, I had the same problem on the wizard and now also with my TyTN on wm5 and wm6 roms.
So my question is: How to enable USB internet passthrough on ActiveSync 4.5? At the moment my desktop activesync is set to "automatic" in the connection settings, and on my device under Settings->Connections->Connections->Advanced->Select Networks I have "Orange Internet" as the connection which connects to the internet (which has in the proxy settings "this network connects to the internet" enabled). and the work connection is "My ISP" which has no settings at all. I tried to add a new network connection but didn't even know which Modem I have to choose and so I gave this up.
I also tried to set my desktop activesync to either use "Work" or "Internet" instead of automatic but when I try to use Opera, Internet Explorer or any other program like downloading the weather data all programs say that the host or page cannot be found or report a network error.
Can anyone help with this, I'm really very desperate... Cause I also tried to find the correct settings for hours now, but without luck...
Thanks for any help with this subject.

do you use a proxy server for this pass through connection? what activesync partnership do you have setup "Guest" or a Normal one...
First to be able to use passthrough you must be connected to your PC via USB and thus connected to active sync. Active Sync should be fully set-up.
First question;
Can you synchronize your data through Active Sync 4.5.
If yes. Try to tick all the items in the desktop active sync> connections settings. On the space "this computer is connected to" select automatic
second: Can your PC connect to the internet?
If yes open the PC Internet Explorer and try to browse, then, while connected at USB, open Pocket Internet Explorer in your mobile and try to browse. You should be connected to the internet then. Good Luck!!
If still you wouldnt connect there must be wrong on your Active Sync partnership set-up

I don't use any proxy server for connecting to the internet, my PC is directly connected to a NAT Router, as well as my linux box and my girlfriends computer and all work perfect.
As for the activesync partnership, where do I see the type of my partnership or in other words, what is a "guest" partnership? The only thing I see is that my device is named "WM_marc1" and that activesync items sync perfectly but the internet passthrough won't work.
I hope you can give me further advice with this information. Thanks for you help

My data synchronizes perfectly through AS 4.5 and I have already checked all items in connection settings. Of course my computer is connected to the internet (see reply to walshieau) and honestly IE and pocket IE have nothing to do with internet passthrough, it's all about TCP/IP subnetting, bridging, tunnelling or whatever method AS 4.5 uses for internet passthrough.
Sorry if i am not explicit...but i hope this helps. For my wizard i remember i had to install a reg on the PC. It did some changes to the Active Sync registry.
The bad is that i don't have that reg

hi, I am using wm6(LVSW series, black Series and now Official Dopod release) on my hermes, everytime I can successfully connect to the internet via activesync using whatever program like pie, opera, spb insight, weather update, WML etc.
what I have done is simply unchecked the 'enable advanced network functionality' under start -> settings -> connections ->USB to PC and then plug the usb cable to my pc.
I use activesync 4.5.

YES WORKS UNDER VISTA TOO
simply check the 'allow data connections on device when conneted to the pc' under connection settings and then plug the usb cable to pc.
Heres the Fix
I had the same problem and this reg key fixed it for me 100%
Download this file AND RENAME IT TO lspvalue.reg
the double click on the reg file on your PC

That's the one i was talking about, thanks i was going to need it too
Ok followed the procedures. I think anyone of them works. Mine worked by changing on PC activesync to "this computer is connected to: The Internet". Nothing else worked. I had the reg hack from the time of my beloved Wizard!
go to:
start -> settings -> connections -> advanced -> select network
make sure that
"programs that automaticaly connect to the internetshould connect using"
"my work network" and not "my isp"
then go to
start -> settings -> connections -> usb to pc
and make sure to uncheck "enable advanced network functionality"
that should do it

Still not working
Why can't someone come up with an ACTUAL solution to this?
When I connect my Tilt to the PC it automatically passes the internet connection through the PC. I did the registry fix and tried all four settings (0, 1, 10, 11) and still my data connection on the phone is overridden by the active sync desktop pass-through. I turned off the advanced networking option and still it goes through the PC. I even went through all the settings in active sync for "This computer is connected to" even though that doesn't even look like it would affect which connection my phone uses. This seems more like a setting within active sync on the phone more than anything.
I use my phone at work for chatting on yahoo IM (with Palringo) since my company network is filtered. I use a program called MyMobiler to transfer the phone display and controls to the PC so I can use my desktop keyboard for the chat program instead of my phone's keypad. Since the network is filtered the internet connection on my phone is filtered too since it's passed through the desktop when I active sync it to use MyMobiler. Sometimes Palringo will hold the connection even after I've connected to the desktop and sometimes it won't.
Bottom line here is can someone come up with an real working solution to this problem that a LOT of people are having?
HOW TO DISABLE DESKTOP PASSTHROUGH WHEN CONNECTING WITH ACTIVESYNC. Search that on google and here and all you will find are people saying "Yeah I have that problem too" or people telling how to connect WITH desktop passthrough.
I have a similar issue. I have my phone connected to my work PC to charge / sync, but all Internet connections attempted by the phone are being routed through my work network until I unplug the USB.
Naturally, that's very bad since all Internet traffic is logged by my work and many sources are blocked. I have an unlimited data plan on my phone. Why can't I stay connected to it when I'm hooked to ActiveSync?
I read someplace that Windows Mobile has an order of preference where connections are concerned. Probably hard line, then wi-fi, 3G and then EDGE. Surely there must be some way to modify this order of preference.
The thread is missunderstood...
The problem here is give to the PPC internet via usb... providede by a PC...
The solution that REG (that works for me EVER!!!).
And now other one provide internet to my PC via usb on phone account
With apologies, I'm not sure I understood what you said there.
But, some of us are actually trying to stop receiving internet by the USB.
I would like the phone to initiate a wireless 3G connection even when connected to the PC. But, thus far, all settings I've tried still cause my phone to attempt to access my business network here at my company.
Big no-no.
have you finally solved the problem?
If so just like to ask if you have change your homepage in ppc? which is
file://windows/default_0409.htm?
and have not run your network wizard? then maybe I have the solution here
Reg key
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer/AboutURLs/
usually it is ( default value )
A.Blank value is res://webview.dll/blank.htm
B.Home_0409 value isfile://windows/default_0409.htm
C.version_0409value isfile://windows/default_0409.htm
if there is a new reg in that one try to delete that file again using a registry explorer ( depends on what you use to view the file)
turn it off for about 30 secs then soft reset... I hope this helps out
I'm not sure that addresses the issue, or mine at least. My phone disables HSDPA the moment I plug the USB cable into the phone and Active Sync takes over. It's before I even open a browser.
Not only does the phone start looking for Internet over the USB Active Sync connection, it looks for non browser related things like weather updates and sending mail to the gmail server.
Somewhere, it's coded to have an order of preference in what kind of connection it accesses. By default, it seems to look for any available land line connection, possibly wi-fi next, then 3G and then EDGE. I'd like to take the land line connection completely out of the equation.

[SOLVED] ActiveSync 4.5 Problem w/Windows Mobile 6

I upgraded my Cingular 8525 today to Windows Mobile 6 with no problems that I can see except for one annoying thing.
When I have my device connected to my desktop, I get an error when trying to sync with my Exchange server.
I have my 8525 set up for Microsoft Direct Push. In the past, the 8525 would sync with Exchange through my computer and it's network connection. Now this not seem to work since upgrading to Windows Mobile 6.
===========================================
Many thanks to the folks who discovered this fix. You would think ActiveSync would have put this entry in itself. I was seeing both error code 85020006 and error code 80072f7d.
One simple registry edit and all is working perfectly. See below:
From: http://www.pocketpcfaq.com/faqs/acti...shoot-as4x.htm
#23 If you are using ActiveSync 4.2 and have a problem with Desktop Pass-through it may be caused by a Layered Service Provider (LSP) that use the Windows TCP/IP stack. This has been known to occur with ISA Server. The registry file LSPValue.reg will reverse this setting. Microsoft and the Pocket PC OEM does not support users that edit the registry.

This MAY help you:
right click on the activesync icon in your system tray (on the pc).....click "connection settings".
on the drop down menu titled "This computer connects to:" change this from automatic to "the internet", then apply the settings.
Cheers! Thanks for the suggestion. I got a different error now.
Synchronization could not be completed. Please try again later. Support Code: 80072f7d

Same Problem
I know this problem, but never found a working solution.
I can uncheck "Advanced Network Functionality", or change to "Work" under connection settings to succesfully sync with Exchange again, but thats not an option for me.
I want to have work and internet connection at the same time, because I also want to sync my IMAP account over the internet, and update my Weather Forecast automatically.
I know when I hard reset my device, it will work again, but I already did a clean install 1 week ago.
Who really knows why its working one day, and the next day it isn't working anymore???
I guess the problem occurs while using exchange-sync and IMAP at the same time. I had exactly the same problem. And in general, there is a problem with new ROMs since other users have to disable "advanced usb mode". That wasn't the case with older versions of WM6.
This helped for me:
1) Using Black Satin ROM
2) Do not use Schaps Advanced Configuration Tool
But my point is:
WHY is it working for several weeks, and then suddenly it STOPS working??
There must be an explanation isn't it?
It seems to be a problem with my PPC, cause when I perform a hard reset it will work again(but who knows for how long?)

guys i updated my .net framework n the roms r gettin updated but my sync still doesnt work
Just another data point... I had the same issue with my Mogul. I tried all the settings changes (Internet, Disable Advanced USB, etc, etc) Nothing worked until i read the MS thread and noticed someone got it working by turning on wifi and then turning it off. Worked for me also. Seems like some settings are getting cached somewhere....
Sorry for digging up and old thread, but I thought I would share something related to this subject.
I recently got a new Kaiser and Dell D830 laptop supplied by my work and was quite annoyed to be getting the 80072f7d error when syncing my exchange email via activesync while connected to my laptop with a USB cable.
I had came across the allowlsp registry setting which resolved the error, but since I was away on a 3 week work trip with nothing much to do, and not being happy about basically disabling a new 'feature' to make something work I was determined to get things working the way they should.
Going by the below articles I noticed that the registry entry either enabled or disabled Activesync desire to use LSP's (Layered Service Providers).
http://pdaphonehome.com/forums/sams...3050-activesync-4-2-internet-pass-thru-2.html
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/help/activesync/troubleshoot.mspx
As the first link clearly states, Activesync ability to use LSP's is a good thing:
This allows for improved compatibility in environments where connections to the internet must be passed through these LSPs
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
So in situations where one might be using their laptop in numerous different locations and on different networks (airports, hotels etc) we would want it left on.
As per the second link:
When other applications install additional LSPs....
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
It pointed to the fact that some other application installed on my laptop must be causing the problem.
A quick google on "Layered Service Provider" Dell found me an article on the Dell website mentioning that:
Some versions of the Wave software written for Dell include the file biolsp.dll that adds Wave's Layered Service Provider (LSP) to the Winsock catalog, which...htm Future releases of Wave software written for Dell will not include biolsp.dll.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
So I figured...hmm...I have a bum LSP on my machine, and I have crazy pre-installed Dell software which uses one which is known to cause strange problems. A quick deinstall and reboot later and now Activesync is back working the way Microsoft intended...using LSP's but capable of syncing via pass-thru connection.
I'm happy to have found problem/cause/solution instead of a potentially problem causing workaround....and it passed an hour or two in a lonely Hotel room...win win

Delete the partnership with Activesync then reconnect my device and it started working again.
(Make sure you phone is not connected to the USB)
Open Activesync --> File --> Delete Mobile Device
fix outlook, and advance options off did not help..

Internet Sharing (Not a problem with Kavana or Ricky ROM)

Accessing & Using the internet via USB
I have an unlocked HTC S620 & TyTN (Hermes).
When I connect the TyTN to the USB I am able to browse the internet as the phone uses the PC as a gateway automatically.Even if I do not setup a profile for activesync and the software recognises the device as "Guest". I am ceretain that this is the case and not accessing the service via the carrier or WiFi as I have enabled flight mode and been able to use the internet on the TyTN, browsing, using IM+ Mobile Mesenger etc.
I do not find the same functionality with the HTC S620 (T-Mobile Dash). Does anyone know how to get this functionality going?
Usually you always need to make a partnership for internet pass through to work. Strange you don't with the Hermes.

When you say partnership I asume you mean bluetooth.
I Turned on Flight mode and diabled bluetooth on the TyTN, connected it to the PC. Activesync came on and I cancelled setting up a profile so it was registered as guest. I got internet access via the usb cable connected to the PC. The same is not working for the S620.
I guess the distinction between the two is the TyTN is a Pocket PC and the S620 is a smartphone. There are various Ethernet Miniport Cards available for configuration on the TyTN. You find these under Settings>>NetworkCard>>Network Adapters. The one I find that shows up as connected is IEEE 802.11b/g Compatible Wifi Adapter, this I find strange as the device is in flight mode. The S620 does not have all the features and configurable network adapters under settings. Simply put a smartphone will not have all the networking capability of the Pocket PC
Let me know your thoughts please, or if you have another solution.
Here is how I got mine working.
1) Connect phone to pc.
2) Make sure ActiveSync shows connected.
3) Under ActiveSync Window select File->Connection Settings...
4) Change the "This computer is connected to:" setting from "Automatic" to "The Internet".
5) Under you phone go to IE -> Menu -> Tools -> Options -> Connections and make sure "Automatically detect settings" is enabled.
That's it. You should now be able to browse the internet through your pc connection.
Forgot to mention I am using ActiveSync ver 4.5.
Dash Internet Sharing Files on S720
On my HTC S720, there was no Internet Sharing option, even though it is WM6 unit. So after reading lots of threads on here and hofo, found out Blackjack had similar issue, as well as some WM5 devices running AKU 3 or higher.
So I copied intshrui.exe, intshare.dll and intshrui.lnk from Dash WM6 Rom dump, created relevant registry entries as:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\intshruiapp]
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\intshruiapp\DefaultIcon]
@="tapres.dll,-14294"
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\intshruiapp\SelectIcon]
@="tapres.dll,-14295"
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Shell\Rai\:MSINTERNET_SHARING]
"0"="MSINTERNET_SHARING"
"1"="IntShrUI.exe"
"2"=dword:00000001
"3"=dword:00000000
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Shell\Rai\:MSINTERNET_SHARING\Session]
@=hex:00,db,4d,43,70,b9,c7,01
Then run intshrui.exe and while I can connect via Bluetooth PAN, I couldn't get any IP. I also tried a static IP and that didn't work as well. I investigated a little more, and found another key:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\ConnectionSharing]
"DisabledOnBoot"=dword:00000001
"EnableAddressTranslation"=dword:00000001
"EnableDhcpAllocator"=dword:00000001
"EnableDnsProxy"=dword:00000001
"EnablePacketFiltering"=dword:00000001
"PrivateInterface"=""
"PublicInterface"=""
"SetLastDhcpAddrToIEH"=dword:00000001
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\ConnectionSharing\Driver]
"Dll"="ipnat.dll"
"Flags"=dword:00000002
"Index"=dword:00000000
"Prefix"="NAT"
Then I copied ipnat.dll to s720. Here is the interesting part. If HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\ConnectionSharing exists, intshrui.exe will not connect, it will briefly grey out and come back to disconnected mode. As soon as I delete the key, it will setup USB or BT PAN and wait for connection (left soft key turns to Disconnect). I don't even have to reset the unit while making change to this key. Also, I left the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\ConnectionSharing as empty, and noticed as soon as I run intshrui.exe, it will populate
"PrivateInterface"=""
"PublicInterface"=""
keys under ConnectionSharing key. I also tried to change various reg keys, such as HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\Tcpip\Parms\IpEnableRouter to 1, and
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\State\Connectivity]
"InternetSharing"=dword:00000001
None helped as well.
Am I missing a file or reg key to make this work? I looked on my Dash for various keys/files but didn't see anything useful.
has anyone figure out how to get internet sharing on wm6?
Have a look at;

I posted up the files and a .reg file taken from my WM6 Dopod 838, but I don't know if everything required is there. If anyone knows what else is required I'm happy to copy it from my device and post it here.
Would you mind posting ipnat.dll - it is missing from Blackjack II WM6..

6.1 Internet Sharing Problem *R.I.P.*
Has anyone figured out why Internet sharing NO LONGER works with any 6.1 roms that i flashed to? From Kavanas ROM s to Ricky's Remakes.
Is there a fix to this?
Can any of you "smarter" Gents or Ladies, look into this.
this is wierd. who is your operator? mine works just fine with the settings i use. maybe we should find out if this problem only exist for certain operators. might also have to do with the network connections on the pc. like i said in another post, i noticed a new network connection appears when you sync the phone, unlike in wm6.0. another thing is i would have problems with activesync everytime i flashed to a new rom without doing a uninstall & reinstall of activesync.

Shouldn't be operator issue. Worked great prior to updating to 6.1. (T-Mobile USA)
What rom are you using?
damn u were quick to respond. i edited my first post. im usin the new v15 rom. and tmobile is my operator.
ediit: i just messed with my settings and went back to how i had them before and now its not letting me do the internet share. hmm... this is not cool
Iv used V14, V8 and V5 and none of them allow my internet sharing to work. V5 worked at first but then stopped.
I really like 6.1 but I NEED that internet sharing
WHAT settings are talking of? that work for you?
INTERNET VIA USB PROBLEM SOLVED!!!!
ok i think the problem may be with activesync. like i said, in my second post edited, i had messed with the advance settings of connections menu, and reverted back and it stopped net sharin via usb. i noticed activesync gave me an error sayin somethin about not being able to fully connect but i was still able to browse my phone, also giving me a constant animation of the activesync icon, saying "connecting" never stopping when a full connection is establish. when i fixed this and the icon stopped turning and said "connected" i tried and it worked.
on a fresh install of the past couple of roms, this is what i did... (from an earlier post of mine)
this is what i did. use the "connection setup" in the accessories folder. choose country & operator. dont think it matters but i also selected "Enable Auto Configuration" under the menu.
in explorer, under "menu/tools/options/connections" Auto.Detect Settings is selected. under "Select Network" choose The Internet.
now go into ur phones "Connection" settings, select "GPRS". in my case, select, "T-Mobile WModem Link", under "Connects to", select The Internet. for other operators, guess look for somethin similar. now u should be able to share via usb.
one thing u might have to do is, delete whatever gprs settings u have now and power off and back on. then do the above.
sorry if this is so messy looking
Can you post the entry "seetings" for "T-Mobile WModem Link"
I manually entered my connections.
So i dont have the modem link

Modem Link on WM6

I have tried a few roms with the wm6 modem link and even installed the wireless modem cab on the official tytn rom but its not being detected on the computer. anyone knows how to make this work? my internet sharing option keeps disconnecting after a few minutes hence this request
The problem with internet sharing is that activesync always starts, causing a drop of the connection.... I found this workarounds working the most time but not always :
When you don´t use push define a fake exchange server, sync all items (it will give an error of cause) then disable all syncing items.
This should prevent async from start!
If you need push like me then try the following:
Disable in active sync setting on both units (PC and PPC) USB connection. Set your exchange sync schedule to manual.
Softreset your device. Go straight to internetsharing. BEFORE!!! you connect to USB start your sharing THEN connect to USB. This works most of the time.
I found the bluetooth PAN connection to be more stable, but it has a significant performance hit when you have HSDPA. For only UMTS,bluetooth has enough bandwith.
Sorry if my english isn´t that good.
Bye
thanks for the advice, i noticed bluetooth did not perform not so well with hsdpa despite stability.
let me try your remedies and will give you feedback and even buy you a beer
Some more advices
Some more advices:
When you use internetsharing disable poweroff and screen blanking. I don`t know how screen blanking interferes with the sharing but i noticed, when the screen gets dark the connevtion got lost. And I use a ttle tool KillAsync on my Hermes. It closes Async for more memory. A last hint: in system-connections-usb to pc enable or disable -depending what is activated- advanced network funktions.
So, now i have no more hints. I tried Usb Modem link too, but got it never working , unfortunately. And i think, a seriell over USB connection like the modem link is to slow for hsdpa.
Looking forward the beer ;-)
