Spoke to 02 Blackberry Support this morning regarding a few issues with the XDA IIs.
Due to current list of bugs (ie, bluetooth etc) Blackberry is quite low on the list to be including in a Rom update. He felt that it would be Mar-Apr 05 before such a update is released!
It seems that even they are directing people to www.smartner.com to try there solution out rather than have to wait!
I think Smartner could be onto a winner here!!!!!
Pylon Anywhere is a better and cheaper product than Smartner's.
You can download an eval from www.ianywhere.com/products/pylon_anywhere.html

Cheers for the update!
I mailed O2 data support last night so it'll be interesting to see what they tell me.
What I really find peculiar is although they are directing people to smartner, and the smartner website lists O2 as a partner, why aren't O2 listing Smartner as a service offering?
I'm going to check out the other product offered here, but between xmail and smartner, I've pretty much got my "push" (really pull) mail solutions sorted out for a few months.

With Smartner's product, it is simply software for your PPC, which is configured via an web based interface at their end. Priced at $50 per year is pretty reasonable for push email.
How much does Pylon Anywhere cost ? Have looked at their website, but it's not exactly clear. Also I get the impression that users also need to install a 'server' type client - is this correct ?
Cheers

I'm downloading it now and it is a server based installation, so if its for your work you would have to get your IS department to test and certify the software before deployment. Looking at the site its restricted to Exchange/Domino environments only so those of you with Pop3 or Imap access are out of the picture.
LIke I say, i've got a test exchange environment at home so I'll configure onto that and see how it performs, but I doubt its for the end-user.
Hmmmm, I think at $645.00 for the Pylon software, I'll stick with Smartner for time being!!!!! WOW - I have picked myself back up off the floor now!!!! :shock:
Remember, thats not counting the price of the software to run the mailserver as well as the time taken to learn how to configure it.
Pylon Anywhere is a server and client solution, not a hosted service like you mention ($50 per person). You need your own server, just like Blackberry Enterprise.
For the price, you get five users (buy in bundles of five users). This includes the server software and client software for Pocket PC, Smartphone, Palm, Symbian and even desktop XP and more.
The client software installs on your device USING THE DEVICES APPS, not some custom solution, allowing you to use any application available for the Pocket PC (PI/AF for example). It is TRUE push; I can push calendar, mail, contacts, tasks and memos if I choose to (only do calendar and mail). You can then also setup what's called ReadySync sessions that occur at scheduled itervals that sync everything (you select) that you don't want pushed (in our case contacts, memos and tasks).
You can also manually sync your device. It also supports SMS Push for those who like having this service (SMS triggers your device to sync - sound familiar).
Fully encrypted, from end-to-end. Users can install the solution themselves via a web interface system, it also provides access to all their e-mail etc (like OWA) if wanted (can be disabled). User can also install via a CAB file and full install program as well.
You can say what e-mails to push and what not to, like HIGH PRIORITY only etc. You can sync your GAL or portions (filtered) of it.
What else do you want to know?

As i understand it you can use the blackberry client from the extended rom of the XDA II. You could either add it to your extended rom , or simply run it as a cab file.
Where can I get the cab?
z0mbi....where can I download the cab file for Blackberry Connect?
Thanks
Same questions here.....where can we get the cab file????
And do we have proof this works???
Blackberry CAB file
I have BB Connect working on an XDA II succsessfully, Although we now have an XDAIIs i want to get it going on. So can someone please post the CAB file or tell me how i can extract it from the XDAII ext rom pleeease
Shannon
Desparately seeking the Blackberry CAB
Somebody please help us all!
I have it going on my XDA2 and have extracted the cab and tried it on my PDA2K I-mate .
It installs ok but wont work
I have also got it from the MDA III german version this also installs and runs but RIM detects it as a illegal pin. There must be some sort of checking that it is in the correct rom version.
If i knew german i would be right
Looks like we just have to wait for a english rom with it installed .

The CAB
Apologies for the no reply, I forgot to check back on this thread...
I haven't tested this personaly as I don't own a 2s but it works on my SE'd II
Anyhow please find the attached cab
Thanks... do you have the Desktop configuration tool sw?
Thanks so much for sending this along... Still trying to get it working.... looks like it also requires some desktop-based software.
Would you mind posting?
Thanks in advance!!!
BLACKBERRY XDA IIS
Hey Guys,
Thanks for the Cab file really apprecicate it ... next question, I have got it installed alright however when it is running, active sync does not work . So has anyone actually got it to work on the XDA IIS?
Maybe i need a newer rom for the XDAIIS although i think there is only the launch going round ?
Shannon
I installed it but it screwed up my blue angel - it had the memory errors (i.e. no more memory available to run programs), so I tried to uninstall it but could not - hard reset after that
It installed on my Verizon Harrier, but it doesn't register... It's possible that I need to have a Blackberry account, so I'm going to call them tomorrow to see.
You might not need a blackberry account from your provider to make this work, you probably just need an account on any BES
I saw a post on here about the progs in the windows/startup folder. Someone mentioned that removing the "connections" executable file had made their XDA more stable. It seems to be the exe that places the O2 icon on the task bar at the top of the screen.
I tried just that...moved the file out of startup to a temp backup folder and did a soft reset.
That was a couple of days ago and I haven't had to reset since Previously I was having to reset 3 or 4 times a day just through very light use!
Thanks for the suggestion Wilesd
Hmm not sure what .exe you are talking about in the windows\StartUp folder.
All I have there are:
Code:
aPerSaveStark.lnk
Camera_Detect.lnk
CheckAutoRun.lnk
ChgDfLnk.lnk
cPerSaveStar.lnk
IA_Caller_ID.lnk
nPerSaveStar.lnk
O2 Connect.lnk
poutlook.lnk
RegNotify.exe
Run_BTTrayCE_10.lnk
Spb GPRS Notify.lnk
STK.lnk
tPerSaveStar.lnk
As you can see.. The only .exe I have is the RegNotify.exe.
The closest that I get to O2 is the O2 Connect.lnk shortcut..
Is that the one you moved?
I don't have the "02 Connect" link in my startup. The file I moved was called "Connections". I can't see on my pda what the file extension is so I don't know if it was a .lnk or a .exe. The mention in the previous post I got the info from was that it was an executable though.
THIS is the post I saw it in.
Maybe it's a country specific thing ?
After all the crashing I was getting with the 1.31 ROM and O2 Active which I never used I decided to do the Corporate install that does not put on the O2 Active rubbish. My phone has not crashed since before I was getting at least 4-5 lockups a day!
Glad I could help, anyway I had to hard reset mine after i installed some dodgy camera upgrade Cab file so decided to give the "Corporate" option ago this time, just select Corporate during the Boot up and type 0506 when it asks for a corporate code.
No looking back now, basically you get a clean WM2003SE install without ANY O2 rubbish but all the GPRS configs etc.. intact. I have not had to do a single reset since.
Recommend this method to any fed up with the O2 active stuff screwing up your IIs. I can honestly say I can't fault the device now.
Thanks for the info guys.
I been holding back from doing the ROM update on my XDAIIs due to everyone saying they have to keep sot reseting their device.
I've just removed the connections.exe from startup folder on my existing setup - make sure i'm happy to carry on without the O2 icon at the top.
Will let you know how I get on.
Thanks again.
Great I shall try this tomorrow.
I've been getting regular crashes on my XDA 2s since I upgraded to the latest ROM.
D
Thanks, removed the O2 connections as suggested 2 days ago and have not needed to reset since.
Was having to reset 2 or 3 times a day since I'd upgraded.
difference between corporate and personal
Whats the difference between corporate and personal mode?
Corporate mode basically doesnt install O2 Active at all so you're left with the default windows screen (presumably so you could customise with your own corporate guff)

Thanks and what do you mean "0506" as corporate code?
thanks ...yellow screen?
thanks guys the corp version seems to do the trick, look very stable now. who need o2 crap. however i can't fail that notice that the screen is slightly yellow from certain angles. it look whitish when you are right in front of it but from any other angle it looks yellowish...anyone else with similar screens? don't remember this to be the case with my previous trusted xda 2...it's a nice device though...

It seems to be a thing with the latest XDA2 "s" and "i" models as it didn't happen on the original XDA2. I did read that the original had Sony screens but the newer ones are made by someone else.
Regardless of this minor inconvenience, I do think the new screens are much brighter that the previous ones...Just my opinion of course :roll:

increase brightness levels
yes they are brighter indeed...also, the xda2s by default reduces the light of the screen to conserve power when used on a battery...if you fix this the yellowish feel goes almost away...why can't they get their sceens right, same probs with bloody apple products, don't they understand that their screen are the most important interface with their devices...

connections.exe in start up
I removed the connections as advised in my XDA IIs and yes it did improve the stability, but after several days I found that even though the PDA was working well the phone would not work properly, either the phone would lock or it would not dial out, or you would answer a call but the caller could not be heard. On two occasions my blue tooth connection was lost. though this only happened on the first day. This was solved by a soft reset. So I have come to the conclusion that yes connections is the trigger but also it dose serve some purpose. I am therefore going to use the corporate mode which seems to be a common solution on many forum topic subjects. I hope this feedback helps others.
I have only just got an XDA2s & noticed that I was resetting 5 or more times per day. I have now removed connections.exe from the startup folder and also removed all references to O2 Active from the Today program and the Start Menus
I'll post results in a few days

I tried corporate mode with removed connections.exe and installed beta of the new today screen.
I have noticed an issue with losing connections too, and your comment about not hearing caller reminds me that happened to me but I thought nothing of it at the time.
I have noticed a bit of a pattern to the not dialling out issue
Basically if the phone loses all connection for a while (not sure how long) then it seems to not get it back when you get to an area you can receive. A soft reset sorts this out.
But this is highly annoying for me, I live in London and go to work on the underground (subway to you yanks) and when I come out if I forget to reset my BA it will not receive calls or dial out.
XDA IIs Stability
What ROM version or versions are you all using?
I'm also having to reset my XDA a couple of times of day and would like to improve on the stability of the device. I've looked in my \Windows\startup and have various links (one is O2 Connect) and two executables (CommLoader.exe and RegNotify.exe).
Also, when I have had to do a hard re-set I have never gotten the option of 'Corporate or Personal'. Probably because of different ROM versions.
Also have any of you experienced problems with the Bluetooth no starting because of low memory on a regular basis?
Do any of you have an O2 XDA IIs from Asia?
Thanks
No resets in 3 days now I've removed connections.exe & stop using O2 Active UI Not using corporate mode though - I'm not brave enough yet to try upgrading my ROM
Hi all.. This is my first post so obviously this is a newbie question! My XDA 2s is not able to recognize the name of my mobile operator here in India, and it shows up as "40468". Is there any tweak by which I can manually feed in the name of the operator so it shows up on the Phone screen?
Just to explain the issue clearly - the number on the top right is where the name of the mobile service provider should show up. Why does it show up as a number (40468) and not as a name, as it did on my Sonyericsson P910i, or indeed other phones? Grateful for any help in this matter.
It's because basically each mobile phone operator is allocated a number (in your case 40468) and inside each phone is a tiny database of operator names/numbers.
I used to think that the operator "sent" the name, but a few years ago now a UK operator changed it's name from "Cellnet" to "BT Cellnet" and then to "O2", however phones wouldn't change. But if you had a newer version of firmware on your phone it would change (so that supports my theory that the database is in the firmware).
I think this also make sense because the operator isn't going to know how many characters are available for showing the name/abbreviating as necessary and so it makes sense for the mobile phone providers to keep their database in sync with the "main" one for who is allocated what as it'll make sure the information is displayed correctly as they can abbreviate as needed for each device.
At least that's how I understand it. So in your case it sounds like your phone doesn't know your provider. Perhaps a newer upgrade might help (1.33 or 1.40?), but I'd just ask your provider. If they sold you the phone it's pretty weird it doesn't support their own network. It might just be a faulty handset :-(
Perhaps post the name of your operator and we can see if anyone else is using them and it works for them
Neil -- many thanks for your reply. When I bought this phone (unlocked) from Kuala Lumpur, it wasn't as yet available in India. Now it is, though. Maybe thats why it doesn't show up all of India's mobile service providers. Anyway, my mobile provider is MTNL in Delhi.
Upgrading ROM to 1.40 may solve the problem, provided its and "Asia" ROM. Is that available yet? Is it possilbe to "cook" the rom to add service providers?
Many thanks for your help Neil.
Well you're using PH20B which is same as my phone is here in the UK and I'm running the 1.40 ROM so technically you shouldn't any problems. I'd wait for someone else to just verify either that A) What I've said about being stored in the phone is correct or B) Some one using MNTL in Delhi to confirm they have/haven't got this problem.
Because if it's a case of it's fine for them and ROM's are same etc it might be a faulty unit (can't really see how!) and a ROM upgrade might not help and since technically these ROM upgrades aren't always official (1.40 probably isn't) you'd probably have to put it back/find previous ROM before you could take it back.
Upgrading to 1.40 isn't really a pain, see the WIKI (top left) it's daunting at first, but it's actually very easy to do, but do it when you have enough time to reinstall everything because doing any sort of ROM upgrade does a hard reset as well (wipes everything in main memory - \Storage and \Storage Card are safe).
I can't guarentee that this would fix your problem, i.e. your provider is in that ROM, but not sure what else to suggest + 1.40 does come with Media Player 10 which is a bit of an added bonus! You can backup your existing ROM, although it's probably already on the FTP, might be handy to have it in advance if you want to go back.
Hope that was some help!
P.S. If you decide to go down the upgrade route, probably worth upgrading your radio at the same time. I'm all the way to 1.12 and it's fine for me, but some people seem to have stayed with 1.10 because they've had some issues - search forum on this)
Neil -- two quick comments.
One, from using cell phones for the last many years, I feel that the code to decipher the cell provider's number is in the phone. This has happened to me before, when I bought phones which were not available in India, and it's happened again! It seems to me it's a ROM issue, as its logical for cell providers to be consistent (i.e. broadcast their identification numbers) and let the phones decipher them.
Two, is there any major danger that I'll lose the phone itself with a ROM upgrade? I know this has been answered in some other threads of this forum, but it'll be a first for me on this newly acquired beauty!
Cheers and many thanks....
example:
Code:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\RIL\OperatorNames]
"45404"="3-DUALBAND-"
Hehe, big mamaich spoke... :lol:
Yup, those are PPC's: many things can be done by software... :wink:
This is odd...
Since I upgraded my MDA2 to 2.06.00WWE Radio: 1.14.00 I've seen this problem where the carrier name was changed to a number (in my case 334020).
On my previous ROM version I had no problem at all. And this device does not even exsist in Mexico and it displayed the carrier name (Telcel) without a problem.
I think the carrier name is taken from the network itself and fed to the registry but this particular ROM has problems taking this particular carrier numbers.
If I do a network search I can see the other carrier in my area (Movistar as a number also) and two other United States Carriers (Cingular and AT&T) but this time with their names (I live close to the United States).
To "fix" this I created a GIF file named carrierlogo.gif and place it on the Pocket PC Windows directory and now it shows a nice Telcel logo instead!...
@ Rayan
that looks good! Could you please explain how you did it? The first step obviously was to place it on the Pocket PC Windows directory, but what were the other fixes? Did you tweak the registry? Newbie question... I've been a XDA 2s user only for a few weeks Rayan!!

using any registry editor like resco..... once u reach OperatorNames create a STRING VALUE
in the Name box write the number that shows in ur dialing pad and in the String box write the name of the operator or any name u want ..... look at the pic ... and u can write it in any lang u want
As shown by PapaDocta above, I added a string to my registery and this is how my phone looks now:
Hi!!!
Thaks, now it worked...I was trying to make a new key value and what not.....but never knew that it was so simple.
Thanks a ton..This helps very much during roaming...
Before you go on to post "read the wiki" ,"search the thread noob" etcetc
Ive done that and i found no help for it other than some settings, which i already tried(didnt work) and ive gotten more settings from the fido csr
and ive plugged those in but still no.(tested gprs/edge by starting pocket IE)
no connection.
I've gotten the value pack for fido which includes the Instant messaging portal for msn and yahoo where i can chat and message and check email unlimited... now the only problem is i cant connect to gprs/edge to use it.
question 1. how do i get the dam settings to work?
question 2. am i able to use the messenger included in the rom? or do i need to use the one specifically for fido?
question 3. once the previous 2 are answered..... Am I able to make it where only the associated program uses gprs/edge for data..so that way if i use pocket ie on wifi i can still use watever im using with gprs?
ie: surf the net on wifi, while im chatting msn on gprs?
thats all i got for now,
I'm using a softbank x01ht with black majik rom.
Thanks for any help i receive.
When I first got a windows phone I was so determined to get it set for Fido's services. With my Universal it took me days to figure out what the settings were. I thought I knew everything after that. Turns out that there are a bunch of other factors such as MMS won't work until you've exchanged msg's with another FIDO customer. Also internet doesnt work without a proper plan first, it doesnt work like it used to , which was PAYG. Lastly the settings don't kick in until you reset the phone, and even then I have heard stories from some where it took upto half hour for some settings to kick in. I find it so complicated now that I seem to know where all the free wi-fi hotspots are around my area.
I hope this doesn't discourage you from figuring out ur settings through trial&error.
I encounter none of what you said. I dont use MMS so I am not familiar with ..all others is no big deal.
It takes me 30 seconds for set up and I am ready to go.
ps: I am on a unlimited for years.....
Well I guess it mustve been different with the Universal and your Hermes.
thanks for the feedback still havent figured it out as of yet though i do know theres supposed to be a dial out to *90# or something like that cant check the txt i received from fido right now.
anyways i hope to get it up soon, im gonna try to port over the IM program thats in my friends rogers tytn and see if i can change the settings on that thing for fido.
wish me luck
They toys bahave different

You bet money on it. I have an 8125 and also an 8525, both have exactly the same UI to set the connections up, however with exactly the same settings I´m able to surf the WEB, get GMail, all MSN Live services,etc only with my Wizard because with the Hermes I´m able to open just a very few wap sites. I´ve had this problem since day one with my Hermes and looking for a solution in this site and in many others I´ve found that I´m not the only lucky person with a $400 toy that performs worst than the cheapest Nokia, there´s a lot of people with same problem and nobody knows why this happens.

For those who've got it working, could you please share HOW? It would be much appreciated.
Will Blackberry Connect work on the Touch Pro2?
I have installed version 106 and no luck as yet with t-mobile., stiil pending.
I just put the blackberry service on the phone and they said give it another day to activate the service.
Any help/suggestions would be appreciated.
i have been stuck on this issue for a week... no luck...
wrote to htc and they came back saying that look for updates on its site... now that's a really long shot..
would suggest that you too write to them... lets put some pressure..
this is a business phone according to them... then bberry is as much important!
I havent bought this phone yet, but I would only be able to if bbconnect is working.
Could you try to change the device ID to TouchPRO in settings/system/about and change the registry HLM\System\Versions\Aku to .1.6.0
But you need to change it BEFORE you install BBConnect
Please indicate if this makes any difference, otherwise we'll need to wait for a new bbconnect version
When i had installed the software without the above settings, i had a PIN and IP address - but it would not connect.
Later on i had hard reset the phone...
now i re-installed the software with the settings u mentioned, but i do not have a PIN or IP Address and bbconnect will not register either...
could u please tell me how to un-install it safely too? as i do not want to do another hard-reset now!
(btw, i had done a hard reset on the phone earlier coz after i tried 106 and uninstalled it, i installed a previous version 100 and it hung my phone.... )

hope u guys understand.. that u r touting the tp2 as a business phone.. and we need blackberry too in a business phone to complete the package....
we cannot connect to exchange alone (that incurs data charges and is not roaming friendly - especially international).. we need bberry coz that keeps us mobile from country to country that we visit...
common guys... its just a few lines of code u hv to modify... am sure...

Me too!! Not working.
Had T-mobile and Rim on the phone together with no luck.
Well I contacted HTC to find out when it would work and this was the reply I received:
Since Windows Mobile is our platform for the HTC handsets, we would push customers to use the Microsoft exchange server.
The device comes with microsoft exchange server support and also supports IMAP and POP3 accounts.
HTC is not going to release any Blackberry connect applications and it would not up to HTC to do this. If Blackberry wants to develop an application and release it to HTC, you may need to check with RIM/BB.
RIM (is the company name)
Blackberry is the platform
Hope this information helps.
Sounds like the person I was contacted by either has no idea or there's no plan for blackberry connect to work on the touch pro 2.... Oh well looks like I'll have to purchase a storm...
Just be patient...
I'm more than sure that we will get BBC to work the same way we did it before. By manipulating the Device-ID string in the ROM (from HTC-Rhodium to whatever) BBC should recognize the device as "allowed" and it _should_ work. So all we have to do is to wait for the HardSPL-guys getting it done so that we can flash custom ROMs. Once this is done, I assume we will have BBC up and running.
Blackberry Connect.
Blackberry Connect does not work on the device, however, it seems to work on the HD.

It works fine on the Rhodium. Check out the thread entitled "blackberry connect, not yet working" It got working about halway through. I use BBC on mine but I needed to make a couple of tweaks as outlined in that thread.
Dominoid - Rhodium - Blackberry connect
very interested in your asnwer dominoid.....can you send us more specifics as to how / what / where. We are dying to get Rhodium work with BBErry Connect. Which version worked with yours?
Does anyone know the orignal AKU for the ATT Tilt2?
I hate cross posting in threads, but somehow people decided to open different threads on the same topic. (Maybe a mod can merge them into one if he reads this).
