problem with ActiveSync
I have pretty much the same problem, only mine is something like this: If I connect the BA to the PC first time, it's working, but if I disconnect it and try do plug it in again, it's not seeing my device. So sometimes I have to restart so that my active sync works again. I'm almost sure that my problem is because of the operating system on the pc witch is not in a very good shape.
ok any solutions what should i do?? the problem is still on active sync cant make a connection.

I have learned that I must turn off the BA between sync attempts. If I push the power button, wait a couple seconds then push it again and place in the cradle. Ever since I started doing it this way I get no timeouts/can't connects.

WM6 requires activsync 4.5 or higher so downgrading will not help. Have you ever been able to sync? Is this the same computer/activsync setup you used to upgrade the BA? One thing I have heard that people have done that has helped is to completely uninstall activsync, reboot the computer, then re-install activsync. Windows does strange things so it may very well help.
ActiveSync BOOSTER
Is there a way to boost up speed of Sync

With removing the phone
Please Help
I cannot sync my calendar or inbox - properly. Some things sync others don't am not to sure why.
I installed xplodes latest wm2006, .NET 3.5 - all seems fine except for the syncing.
I uninstalled activesync 4.5, re-installed 4.2, then uninstalled ti and re-installed 4.5.
I tried syncing ONLY the contacts, then added the calender in options. (suggested in another post)
Still it is NOT WORKING - i really need the sync to work if I am too keep wm2006 ?
any other suggestions ? (help!)

I just noticed this problem today - though I think it may have been happening for a few days.
OE & IE have been hanging a lot (most unusal for my PC). So I had a good clearout & spy/adaware/antivirus blitz too - nothing! When I checked my process list I discovered OUTLOOK.EXE running happily away. Initially I thought I had a worm but it looks like it only kicks in when ActiveSync is running and then I have to manually delete the process afterwards.
Around the time this all started I upgraded to the latest ROM etc and setup bluetooth on my PC and PDA. All eventually worked ok - after I removed 17 virtual COM ports from my device manager! I can now sync & surf via bluetooth if I need to - first choice is WIFI though.
Any comments would be appreciated - more concerned that whatever it is, is hanging OE & IE from time to time. If need be I'll remove the bluetooth on my PC and see if that makes any difference.
Have you installed activesync v4?
Hi Swoopster.
No I haven't - read conflicting reports online - admittedly didn't look into it very far but decided to stick with 3.8.0
Do you think I should try ver. 4?
Cheers
I installed one of the original activesync 4 betas and had the odd few issues with that. I found that it partially removed the issues with outlook locking up.
Moving to the released version of activesync 4 and my outlook issues have disappeared. Outlook remains open whenever the xda is syncing (and when i'm using it), otherwise it just closes it down and removes it whenever you remove your xda.
There is a clean way of shutting down a locked office app as well... In 2003 you have the microsoft application recovery tool which will force shut down the apps for you.
Cheers.
Outlook sticking and Activesync
Ihave the same problem with Outlook "sticking" and I have to end task when I want to back up my .pst file.
It happened with Activesync 3.8 and still with 4.0.
I could not downgrade Activesync back to 3.8 (by uninstalling 4.0 and reinstalling 3.8)- may just be me though !!!!
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 ?
hi ppl,
after the upgrade from 2003 to WM5, everything is ok but BA wont sync any more. It used to work fine with 2003, I bring it to my friend where we patched it, we didnt sync it there but his pc obviusly saw BA during the patching process.... When I brought it home my PC couldnt sync with BA any more.
When I put the BA in the cradly PC found it and let me explore the BA thru the active sync just like before but after that it report that he can not sync and that I recconect the device, after the reconnecting - same story. Exploring works ok all the time but syncing dont.
Im suspicious about the fact that PC didnt asked me about the new device after the wm5 patch and didnt asked me about the type of the partnership (you know guest and normal)...
Used to try without the firewall, didnt helped, and didnt know how to manage to connect it and sync it via the BT...
Any ideas regarding the syncing via the USB or if someone can me please explain BT sync process...
Can I sync it with the WIFI ad hoc wifi network ? how please ? That could help too maybe.
PC OS is XP SP2
Best regards !
try this...
make sure you have updated your activesync to the recent version. mine is 4.5
1. remove your BA from the cradle.
2. delete your mobile device profile in activesync.
(File-> Delete Mobile Device)
3. place your BA in the cradle
4. re-setup your mobile device.
ty active sync on the PC is 4.5...
tryed to reinstall it, deleted the folder, run registry cleaner, install it again and nothing changed...
Im suspicious that the problem is in BA, when I run active sync there it reports on some kind of info screen "to sync with the desktop computer, install Activesync on your computer and then connect this device. If your company support syncing directly with its exchange server blah blah"... Never saw this screen in the active sync on BA before...
It looked like PCs active sync before as far as I remember....
used to try to connect it with the BT, after the pairing with the PC BA shows the screen with the services that I want to use for that BT connection but the list is empty... Anyway they are paired in that moment (passkey passed)... When I click on the connect with the BT in the active sync on the BA it report that theres no BT paired devices in that moment and that I can pair if I want, I chooce PC on the next screen again but nothing happens...
sorry to hear that.
i guess if you're using BT to sync i cant help you with that.
i know there's a topic here somewhere about the BT Stack incompatibilities.
let's hope someone who had your error find his way into reading this.
------------------------
tragedy: life's a windows[tm] bliss... till one bug shows up and eats up your lifespan with stress in bugbusting.
looks like that PC cant read settings of the BA coz when syncing begins, PC report that he is retrieving settings but moment after that he report sync can not be completed succesfully....
Like theres some firewall in the BA which prevents pc from the reading of the settings.
Problem is solved, BA is upgraded to WM6.
always glad to hear someone has solved a problem.
even if my posts didnt helped a bit. ahaha...
Hi All,
how can I launch active sync on the artemis?
I've got active sync 4.5 installed on my xp pc at work, has been syncing without a problem, yesterday when I plugged my usb cable into the phone, it did'nt sync and is not seen as a usb device.
Looking on the phone active sync is usually a running as a background task, but it currently is'nt.
Can I launch it manually?
Running meschle artemis touch 3.01 full, if that helps.
cheers

Go to start/programs and than start activesync
still had problems - launched active sync manually, click sync, a progress bar flashed up and disappeared - phone still not seen from the PC.
did some more searching and got it working again by going to connections, USB/PC connection and unticked advanced usb is disabled - active sync came straight back up
not sure what happed ans aI certainly don't remember ticking the box in the first place - don't care either as all seems to be back working again.
cheers

hey guys i am not to sure if this is supposed to go here but can anyone tell me why my phone is unable to sync contacts and file with activesync 4.5
more details? what device, what rom? what OS?
i have tried many of the new roms including most of the manilla 2d roms on here i am currently trying tot do it with crc 13 stable and still no joy on a Rogers Htc TYTN
still not enough info, what OS are you running?! what error are you getting when trying to sync?
Activesync 4.5 problem
I'd like to jump into this discussion. I also have a problem with Activesync 4.5 recognizing and connecting to me Herm200. The oddest thing is that it has functioned correctly, but for some reason it isn't any more. I have two of the same device and it is the same for both. I also have a Wizard (T-Mobile MDA) and that device has no problems what so ever connecting.
Here are the specs of the OS installed on the Herm200:
WM5 ROM version 2.11.255.1
Radio version 1.38.00.10
Protocol version 32.71.7020.12H
ExtROM version 2.11.255.102 installed.
Any assistance to resolve this problem would be greatly appreciated.
Try: start menu>settings>connections>usb to pc and uncheck the checkbox
Maybe it sounds bizarre, but also try a different cable, in a different usb port, turn off your computer firewalls, and try cleaning your mini usb on the phone. I got a piece of dirt in mine and nearly tore out my hair until i got it fixed. I had a cable go bonkers, which gave me a lot of grief, and one time the usb port decided it DIDNT like my phone anymore
Plus, for some reason i have to diable the firewall everytime on nod32 until i can connect.
Hope one of those helps....

Hope you can help me..
I just bought a Softbank HTC X01HT, when i connected it to my PC, Microsoft Activesync cannot detect it. But my HTC is charging.
What I did:
1. I am using a new USB cable, tried another USB cable = no success.
2. Tried to sync to another PC = no success.
3. Uninstalled Microsoft Activesync, reinstall Activesync = no success.
4. Did some research, uncheck "Enable advanced network functionality" = no success
5. Hard Reset = no success
6. Connection Settings --> Connect = "Your device was not detected"
COM 1 = Available
COM 2 = Not installed
Infrared Port(IR) = Not installed
USB = USB is available
and it gives the beeping sound (sound you get when you plug in your USB) but nothing happens after.
Btw, im using WM 6.1 Pro.
My Bootloader shows:
HERM200
IPL-1.04
HERM200
SPL-2.03
I'm losing hope.. T_T Hope someone can help me. Sorry for being such a noob. >.<
Thanks in advance!

I have had real buggy Active Sync problems only with the last 2 ROM's I've flashed, Joshkoss's V.10 and PDA's V.27. Both are using build 20759 which I think is the culprit for me.

thanks for the help man, doing this actually worked for me, one thing that i also had to do was restart both my computer and my phone before it would work.
By the way i am using CRC 13 on my HERMES

Oh my..., now I'm the only one that has the Activesync Problem. T_T
Two ROM's that I am using.. Pays ROM Lite & Full - WM6.1 WWE with Big Storage and 27/10/2008 ROM 3.62.502.20 (Manila2D) V.20 Build 20921 by PhamQuang.
What ROM can you suggest to test the Activesync problem? Thanks in advance..
If I'm using a usb cable to connect, how might this remedy the problem? I did try what you have suggested without success.

try using the crc 13 that i used but if it doesn't work right away try either checking or unchecking the box in usb to pc for enabling advanced network functionality
maybe its installin drivers on the computer possibly? because the sound made generally is a new hardware detect just my 2 cents
Just a thought but it may be the version of Office / Outlook being run. I've been running office 2003 w/ outlook, Active Sync 4.5 with my Hermes 200 on the original AT&T 6.0 for the last year without issue. My company recently upgraded everyone to Office 2007 and ever since my Active Sync has had nothing but issues with syncing especially over blue tooth.

Same here, I have a laptop that runs 2003 Outlook and that works fine, but 2007 - pah what a waste of time. Shame as I really like 2007, maybe it is better on Vista ?! Doing some reading around the web seems to suggest that syncing with 2007 is hit and miss. Works for some not for others, seems like MS strike again !
I'm running outlook 2007 and hosted exchange 2007 through infoquest. Not having any issues either way. May be you can post the error codes you get on active sync, I did have to enter some registry fixes on my laptop but it hasn't given me any issues.
Can't speak for anyone else but if I try to sync with Outlook 2007 all that happens is it goes into a weird loop syncing blank entries continually. Last time I tried I had over 300 blank contacts in Outlook and none of my Outlook contacts on my device ! No messages nothing. That of course is when it does anything, if I delete the pairing then quite often when I plug it back in it will repair and then do nothing ! I now use my laptop to sync up as it works with 2003 reliably.
I noticed the following thing: When using a rom cooked with a build above 20755, syncing under Vista is a challenge. It works when... it works. With a build equal or before 20755, it works like a charm. I flashed back and forth with 2 different builds. No programs installed. And I get the same results. Could it be related to some differences in builds?
