WM5 with Windows 2000 Professional

Hi All,
A quick question to those who know..
I'm considering updating to the WM5 ROM we have on wiki. The PC I have at home is XP SP2 with Active-Sync 4 which works lovely with my MDA3 1.40.00 ROM..
Trouble is, my Work PC uses Windows 2000 Professional and guess what, this is the PC I need to Sync to..
I think I already know the answer but well I, if I install Active-Sync 4 on my Windows 2000 Professional, will I be able to Sync my Calendar, etc..
Many thanks to you all..

Windows Mobile 6.5 & Lotus Notes Traveler

After upgrading my HTC touch pro 2 to the new relased Windows Mobile 6.5 i have two problems that I don't know how to solve.
1./ I am using Lotus Notes Traveler to synchronise with my mail at work - when changing to WM 6.5 synchronisation is only working when usin WLAN.
3G/GPRS etc does not work - it has something to do with "port 80" etc - can anyone help me out?
2./I had previously WM 6.1 and had installed TomTom 7.
When upgrading to WM 6.5 I only get a message that TomTom doesn't work with this version. Is there any way to "get around" this?
All I can tell you is that I validated Traveler on both the HTC TP2 and the AT&T Tilt 2 running WinMo 6.5 and ran it for a week with no issues.
Are you using a VPN client to connect to your server, or are you running an SSL setup, or a server outside the DMZ?
Maybe this is a port blocking issue from your network.
I am trying to connect via the telephone operators server (3G/GPRS) through to an IP-adress (our company server)
This worked very well when I had installed traveler on WinMo 6.1 but I haven't managed to get it operational when doing the same installation on the WinMo 6.5 platform.
As I mentioned via my home-WLAN it works perfect.
If you are using a url for the server address, try using the ip address instead.
Thank you golfer_boy, for pointing me in the right directio.
I have spent a good portion of the day, thoroughly running through my telephone-provider settings, and found out that there was something strange with some proxy-settings.
Now I have Traveler up and running at full speed.
If you hadn't encouraged me stating that you had been running it, I would probably not have put all that effort into it.
Thank you fo the support and best regards!
Glad I could be of some help.
We started using Traveler about six months ago for our US PDA users and it has proven very reliable for us. I have compared e-mail delivery to the same device running BB Connect and found no difference. The only thing it lacks is a corporate address book lookup but that has not proven a big problem for us.
Hello,
I have the same problem (working with WLAN, but not 3G/GPRS), but it is no difference in using a host or an IP-adress. Any other idea?
(Using Samsung omnia II (winmo6.5) now, worked before with SE Xperia (winmo 6.1))
Soren5939, what was the solution? was it the host/IP?
My admin has told me to disable proxy, but in 6.5 I don't find this option...
Soren5939, I'm having the same problem with a HTC Touch Pro 2 on Winmo 6.5. Exactly what did you change in the proxy settings?
Hi,
is there anybody who can explain how to install the traveler properly on WM6.5?
Want top update my phone to WM6.5 but want to be sure that Traveler will work and I do not know if I can install the current Traveler on WM6.5 at all. And IBM still says that they just support till WM 6.1. There support do not even know if or when they will update Traveler.
Thanks for your help
Just updated to Win Mobile 6.5. Installed the Lotus Notes Traveler for Win Mob 6.1 and everything worked.
Cheers
Unable to install Lotus Traveler 8.5.1 on HTC Windows mobile 6.5
Hi Can you pls help me as I am Unable to install Lotus Traveler 8.5.1 on HTC Windows mobile 6.5
Thank you
I was working with the Traveler for a few month on WM6.5 with no issues but since i switched to WM6.5.x (6.5.3 atm) it only syncs for the first time after being installed. From then on it gets an Error 8.
I tryd this with several roms but with no positive result.
Can anyone confirm this?
btw: Im on a TOuch HD
I too work with Notes Traveler and the latest release of any custom rom i use puts the phone into an unusable state (mostly non-responsive). I have Tried Juicey R8 and Energy Leo.
I'll have to try a stock 6.5 ROM in the future. If not.. it will be back to 6.1.
Update: I removed my SD storage card and soft reset. Phone works fine with Notes Traveler and Energy Leo ROM. I'm in the process of reformatting my SD card to see if that helps.
Update2: My TP2 running Energy Leo works fine as long as my storage card is not in the device. Maybe there's a DLL issue with accessing the storage card when one is present.
Seeing something similar here.
Phone: HTC TP2 on Win Mob 6.5 (Vodafone UK Rom)
I have now spent a few days messing around with this, and this is where Im at.
1) Im pretty sure the Notes traveler install messes with my phones ability to turn off the screens backlight off, but Im sorted that with a Reg Fix
2) Can confirm that Notes traveler doesnt like switching networks (WLAN, 3G)
3) It too installed for me the first time, but as I saw other issues with the phone I had to flash the ROM again.
Same problem here.
Install Traveler and the first sync works fine. After that there is no send/receives. My IT guy has the same phone and ROM so I am not sure WTF is going on.
Any help would be great. Someone had posted that they fixed theirs, but did not include what the hell they fixed.
Any comments???
Problem is solved
the new Version of the Notes Traveler (8.5.1 fixpack2 otherwise called 8.5.1.2) is fully compatible with WM 6.5.x
I installed the new version on our server an flashed a 6.5.x ROM onto my HD2.
Then you´ve to update the client version on your phone
The traveler is know working fine.
Greetz,
Mirco
I can confirm that Traveler 8.5.1.2 works perfectly fine on my TP2 with stock WM6.5 ROM. I tried syncing over 3G and WLAN.
And btw., does anyone know if it's possible to sync only mail, not calendar, using Traveler? I know it's not officially possible, but maybe some registry hack?
Traveler and WinMobile 6.5.3
I've found a problem using 6.5.3 on my X2 when trying to Sync with Traveler.
1st sync is perfect, but everytime efter that the phon keeps sending calendar updates until you tell it to stop. If you try to wait and see how many calendar entries it sends you'll be out of battery before it's done.
It starts with 0 of 9 ( example )
1 of 9
2 of 9
And keeps on and on. And goes beond 9.
After a few hours you'll be looking at 2469 of 9
Any suggestions any one.
Hello dicksoft.
Please, try set Mail and Calendar settings from "Show all" to needed period.
Maybe You syncing too many Calendar events.
In Traveler - Menu/Settings/2.Mail and Calendar
Show past events
Show upcoming events
Example:
Show past events- 1 Month
Show upcoming events- 3 Months

WM5 and Windows 7

So, we have to replace our desktop, and we picked up a new one running windows 7. Is it true that WM5 will not work with Windows 7's Mobile Device Center program?
If so, is there any backwards compatible program or tweek that we can do to still let WM5 sync with our outlook on Windows 7?
almost 70 views, and no help? Theres gotta be someone out there that can help! I am just trying to cut down on the surprises before we fully activate the new system, and explain to the wife why her iPaq wont sync, or have the correction when it does happen!

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Sorry, I dont think there will be backwards compadability for WinMo 5..
I think its so old it might be time for an upgrade
One possible option i've used is running Windows XP in a VM (VMWare in my case) and syncing to Windows XP/Office that way.
Well, turns out whoever told me that was wrong. The system recognized and synced up our iPaq's just fine. So thanks for the help guys, but turns out Windows 7 Mobile Device Center recognizes WM5!
