Activesync via WLAN with Vista - possible? - 8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development

Hi everybody,
I am running latest Schaps release on my Hermes.
Is it possible to sync the device, via WLAN with Vista?
If yes, how would I go about? Didn't find any threads, regarding this topic..
Maybe somebody could give me a hint, on how to go about?
BTW, has anyone of you used salling clicker via WLAN as well?
THX for your help.
regards,
trial

I would be interested to know if it's possible to do it in bluetooth or Wlan..

Bluetooth, of course. You should download Windows Mobile Device Center (a new name for ActiveSync) and enable Bluetooth connections in its menu.

Thanks, I have tried that but it hangs when i hit the sync button on my laptop.. Anything on Wlan syncing?

Yeah, on WLAN syncing: there is no WLAN syncing.
And what happens when you hit the Sync button in ActiveSync on device?

ActiveSync via wifi is awsome, but one question remains

I managed to finally figure out how to use activesync without having to use a cradle. So far I haven't had the troubles that I have had when I used the cable and cradle. No more inactive activesync, can't synchronize errors, and having to restart activesync every few hours or so.
I managed to have activesync running for 2 days straight without any problems and restart of any sorts. This leads me to beleive that using wifi with activesync is more stable than using a usb/cradle.
My question is, can I completely abandon the USB/cradle when upgrading ROM, app installs, or anything that has to do with using the cradle and usb cables?
I don't know the answer for certain but I should think so.
What I need to know is how to sync using wifi without it trying to access GPRS instead.
Any ideas?
My 2s is configured to access wifi first (I think the setting is under the wifi config). If wifi isn't available, then it tried to access GPRS. My carrier charges an arm and a leg to use gprs, so I never configure the phone to access my carrier's GPRS. I rely on free public WIFI access and my home WIFI access to do all my internet jobs.
You'll still need the USB for ROM updates; everything else you can do over WiFi or BT.
wifi
Hi nomad,
im trying to configure my laptop wifi (peer-to-peer) and 2s. My 2s can connect to laptop wifi but the activesync is not performing connection or no connection at all. appreciate your help.
thanks.
@3waygeek, Thanks as I have not tried update anything since I pay a service to upgrade my things on my PPC. Sprite also does not like to backup via WiFi. I had to connect the PPC to the cradle.
@hoobas, I have WinXp/Sp2 installed. I have not had any problems connecting other than the occasional ActiveSync annoyance when I'm connecting with the USB cable. I'm sorry that I can't help you. I have not experience your problems so I can not give you a diagnosis.
wifi and MS Activsync
hi nomadman
can u let me know how u set up wifi to sync activesync? i have a WLAN at home and cannot see where the option is to use wifi to sync MS Activesync.
I also want to get away from having to use the cradle each time i want to sync . AT present i am doing it using infrared which is ok but like u said wifi must be better.
Also, i have two machines (a laptop and a desktop) in my wifi network. Desktop is hardwired and laptop hangs off wirelessly. How will my xda IIs know which machine to sync with?
cheers

ActiveSync starts automiatically on USB, serial, and Bluetooth connections. You'll have to use the ActiveSync link located on your PPC to connect to the PC via WiFi. This is assuming that ActiveSync does work on both your PPC and desktop. So it's best to connect to ActiveSync at least once via cradle before going ActiveSync via WiFi.
Only install ActiveSync on either your lappy or your deskop, but not on both. One limitation with ActiveSync is that you can not use more than two partnerships without some fiddling around with your PPC and your networked PC.
About Cradle ActiveSync.
Uninstall ActiveSync -> Reboot PC -> Reinstall Active Sync 3.8 and don't touch any thing or open any programs while installation is in progress.
Mine is working like a charm

How did you do it?
I've used the search function but I couldn't find anything about it.
Thanks,
Dino
OK, got it to work, too. Very nice
But I had to set my Network Connection from "Internet" to "Work".
Is it possible to use both settings? My Wireless LAN connects also
to the internet, so I won't switch everytime I want to sync or surf.

In the network settings of yr phone, enter the ip address of machine you want to sync with as WINS server. That will tell yr phone which machine it has to connect to. You can set up peak and offpeak timings in the mobile schedule of activsync on ye PDA, so that it can sync every 10 or 15 mins .
Sorry if my question is too noobish. I have read so many articles talking about establishing wifi sync between a wifi enabled PPC and a wifi enabled PC, but havent been able to do yet. Do i have to have another software to enable the connection ?
Can any one please explain slowly and in detail how you could do that, i've been searching for quite a long time but still no result. And 1 more question is that after i can sync through wifi between my O22s and my laptop, does it affect the wifi connection of my laptop and my O22s? A bit silly right but i'm a new user and i'm not in IT field also. Thanks for any suggestion from you guys.
@azeemakhtar,
http://www.pocketpcfaq.com/faqs/multiplepartnerships.htm
@ducga,
1. Install ActiveSync 3.8 on your lappy or PC, but not on both.
2. connect to activesync via cradle first.
3. remove unit from the cradle and reset.
4. click on the ActiveSync link on your PPC and tap on the Sync button.
* The above procedure should be able to get activesync working via wifi as long as there isn't a setting problem in your router managment or firewall.
* The above precedure should work if your are able to connect to the interent on your PPC via wifi.

I also have to do the following:
3a. Click Start / settings / connections / Network cards
3b. Select Network Adapters
3c. Change 'My network card connects to' from 'The Internet' change to 'Work'
3d. Close, reset (for luck)
3e. Open ActiveSync on your desktop PC, select File / connection settings / and tick allow Network Ethernet !!
4. Now when you click on the ActiveSync link on your PPC and tap on the Sync button - it won't try to use GPRS to connect and WiFi will be listed as your Work connection.
I always have to change my network card settings back to 'The Internet' before I can browse again.

Go to ActiveSync on your XDA, click tools, options.
It will say "When syncing remotely with a PC Use this PC:"
It should list the network name of the PC you currently have a partnership with. i.e. "TOMSLAPTOP"

ActiveSync over Bluetooth help!

Gentlemen,
I need your help, just steps please how to connect ActiveSync 4.1 to O2 WM5 (Ivan's ROM). I have tried evrything and still can't get connection.
I can use wireless modem over BT (without setting any com port - kind of mistery for me!) and brows internet on my Laptop via PDA. But no luck with ActiveSync.
I'm lost and need very simple instructions what to do ) Thanks.
WM5 Does not support Wireless sync as MS$ have decided that this is a security issue.
truly, MS is a black magic.
somehow I did manage to establish activesync via BT, and sync my contacts. I think, trick was to activate BT discovery mode on PCat exact moment when activesync start searching on pda.
nevertheless it is running now on my desk.

bluetooh active sync
I found that I had to get my Bluesol working first (bluetooth hosting program) then I would start active sync on pc then start bluetooth manager on ppc then start active sync fron list of blue tooth short cuts this was after setting com ports on Bluesol it was a lot of mucking aroud to start with but once it was setup it connects fairly easily now hope this helps but it is important to set up a com port with bluesol first so that active sync can look for it then set up the same com port in active sync on the pc

WM6/VISTA - Possible to use 3G when Syncing??

OK,
Im in desperate need of a way to be able to Sync my PDA in vista, so its using activesync, but also be able to use the 3G connection on the PDA as well...
I know that the latest Activesync 4.5 allowed this, but is it possible in Vista?
So, Hermes is connected, synced in WMDC. But if i click on internet on the PDA it uses the PC's internet connection. What i need it to do is use its own 3G connection instead. The reason for this is if my laptop is not connected to any network i still need to be able to use apps on the PDA that connect to the net using 3G *BUT* has to be synced to run pocketcontroller software...
Hopefully someone can help soon'ish as i have a presentation i need this ability for soon!

Modem driver for HSDPA UMTS

Dear All
I cannot find the original CD, therefore I cannot install the modem drivers onto my WinXP laptop. The modem drivers are necessary to use my PDA (Orange SPV 3100 - Hermes 100) to connect to Internet via UMTS - HSDPA
Can somebody help me by emailing these drivers ([email protected]) or posting here or attaching somewhere on Internet?
Thanks a lot
Saulo
I was told that modem drivers are the same for different brands, I mean Orange SPV M3100, or HTC TyTN / XDA trion / MDA Vario II / VPA Compact III / Dopod CHT 9000 / Dopod 838 Pro
Thanks and please help
Saulo866
You shouldn't need modem drivers if using a WM6 rom. Am I understanding the problem? The Internet sharing app uses a virtual network driver that works much better than the old modem drivers. And if you aren't using WM6, upgrade to it. The Internet sharing piece alone is worth the trouble.
I belief installing Activesync 4.5 should be sufficient.
Dear All
On PDA side I have an Orange SPV M3100 (Hermes 100) with WM 2006 Professional: CE OS 5.2.1413 build 17741.0.2.1
I am not sure whether this is a cooked rom or shipped one. I am inclined to believe it is a cooker WM06 rom
On laptop side I have
- ActiveSync 4.5.0 build 5096: it works greatly
- winXP SP2
Now my question is: WinXP does not see my Hermes as a 3G UMTS or HSDPA modem. Therefore I am unable to use my Hermes to connect to Internet.
My APN is set correctly, on the Hermes side: I called my UMTS-HSDPA operator and set my device accordingly. But the 3G operator also told me to contact HTC or Orange to download the modem driver to make it accessible by my laptop. ActiveSync 4.5 alone does not suffice, since it is only for sync purposes. In other word currently:
- If my laptop is already connected to Internet (e.g. via LAN or WiFi) then my Hermes can ALSO connect to Internet, via ActiveSync 4.5
- Viceversa, if my Hermes establishes a 3G connection, or GPRS connection, my laptop CANNOT use it to access internet.
If you know how to solve this problem I would greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Saulo
i have winxp pro with AS 4.5 ... and all i have to do is turn on internet sharing on my phone, plug in the cable and im done.. the computer will automatically recognize the phone as a network connection.. and i have tried this on a computer without AS and the computer wouldnt recognize the phone, so it appears that activesync is necessary for sharing (it doesnt sync with internet sharing on, but i believe AS has the drivers that are needed)
By the way I have 2 Italian GSM-UMTS-HSDPA operators: Vodafone and Tim
I have tried. I have set correctly their APN settings: (for tim is ibox.tim.it)
While on Hermes side everything seems fine, (for example Pocket Internet Explorer can open web pages) my laptop cannot use Hermes to access internet, even if ActiveSync connections is established and working (hermes synchronized)
Please help
On Phone goto:
Start ~> Programs ~> Internet Sharing
you should have no problems.

on laptop clik activesync icon in the bar and from "setting connections" disable "allow uSB connection"
then do on ppc what Custel abowe wrote
Thanks to all of you!
Following your suggestions now I can connect using my USB link, between Hermes 100 and my laptop, running WinXP.
I did it by first upgrading to Schap WM06 3.3c
Then making the few steps outlined above
My next question is: was anyone succesfull in using Bluetooth, instead of USB link?
I mean, is it possible to access Internet, via Hermes 100 3G-UMTS-HSDPA connection, by connecting laptop and Hermes via Bluetooth?
Thanks again
Saulo866
By the way I noticed that if you use activesync USB link (you do not need to disable USB connection!) that what happens is:
- if you browse internet in your laptop by using Hermes 100 as a UMTS/HSDPA modem the syncing between laptop and Hermes goes down, stops: the device works as a modem but any synchronization stops working. In other words you cannot perform any synchronization (via activesync) or any other operation, like file transfer, while using activesync as a usb-type-link between laptop and Hermes.
Am I right?
Why is that? I mean why cannot I sync my device (or transfer files) and at the same time use my hermes as a 3g-modem for my laptop?
Thanks
Saulo
any clue why this happens? I mean why you cannot sync and browse internet at the same time?
After connecting to the internet via internet sharing, I re-enabled "Allow USB connections" in AS4.5 nut it still wouldn't sync. I guess at the moment we have to be contented with internet sharing w/o being able to sync Hermes and our computer.
A bit OT but has anyone successfully connected to the internet via internet sharing in Vista?
Yes
Yes I have been using Internet Sharing with windows vista successfully. Once it connects there are no problems BUT it doesn always readily connect and often requires a software reset .
I have WM6 Schap's 3.57 on my hermes 300. The internet sharing works great but when I've disconnected my GSM connection while I'm connected to a Wi-Fi network and I try to use "Internet Sharing" I get the message on my phone: "Cannot connect. Ensure that your phone is correctly configured, service is available, and that flight mode is turned off before trying again."
Probably WM thinks I'm in flight mode altough Wi-Fi is connected.
Is there a way around this?
How can you tell if the phone is using the WiFi connection instead of HSPDA/GPRS/EDGE? (Roaming is a bit expensive)
The USB-modem driver worked with WM5. When I start the "Modem Link" program, windows says it found new hardware. I've installed the driver I used with WM5. I tried using it by calling *99# but it didln't work. Should I call a different number with WM6?
Anyone the same problems and/or solutions?
It does work great indeed.. Internet connection sharing..
Except.. when you want to connect to a VPN.
I never had issues with using WM5/Black as modem. But now.. in the HTC Wm6 (official one) only Internet Sharing is left.
Does anyone have a solution for the VPN connection?
Thanks all!

I have successfully connected to the interrnet via the blutetooth connection.
In your Hermes, select "Bluetooth PAN' instead of USB under the "Internet Sharing" "PC Connection".
In your PC, click on the "Join a Persoonal Area Network" under the bluetooth option and slect your device and you are done.
PS: Your device must be paired first.
I've had the same issue when connecting to my companies VPN, I had to connect to the Tytn via Internet Sharing via Bluetooth to use the VPN.

[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.

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?)

thanks in adv
its showin the same warning"failed to initialize properly"
i tried variuos roms(shamanix,tnt,funkey's ,etc) but its still not workin...
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
other solution
this was posten in on of other messages and it worked great for me...
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..
