Ok so my phone will only randomly sync using ActiveSync 4.5.
Most of the time it says its an unknow device. I also notice when I install the drivers, it registers as a Generic Windows Mobile Device.
Any fix for this?
Not a fix, but a work around. The general panacea for ActiveStink problems is to go to Settings> Connections> USB to PC> and uncheck Use Advanced Network.
What that does, as far as I am able to tell, is to switch to the old way of connecting the PPC to the PC.
Having a different issue with Activesync on my 8525 (Hermes100) since upgrade to WM6.. error reports "change on server" forcing a complete re-sync with Outlook; all "custom" settings, pictures, ID ringtones, etc. from the phone are lost... Get's frustrating as it takes time to re-config... it will go 1 or 2 weeks fine, and then without warning this message comes up, have not made any changes on the PC or config that would trigger this as far as I know... Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated..

hi guys,
Ever since I started playing around upgrading the software of my exec i'm having major trouble syncing it to my PC, When attached to my PC it accesses and says connected if I hover over the icon but the dialog box shows retrieving settings all the time. I cannot sync any PIM information etc but I can transfer stuff to my device but not from...
any ideas what I have messed up??
thanks

I had the same problem. If you look in setting, connection you can set the USB back to the standard system and not advance.
Have a look, and do not forget to do a soft reset for the change to be done correctly !
Hello all,
You've got a nice forum here, that I stumbled upon yesterday... and already I've got a little problem , where I hope you can help me with. (I've searched the forum already in the Artemis section, but didn't find anything appropriate to help me, so if I missed a solution for my little problem, I'm sorry for posting it again)
Here I go:
Since today my activsync won't syncronize with my HTC P3300 anymore.
There is a connection, but no syncronisation (I mean I can explore the folders on my phone, but it never stops syncronizing). The Optionsmenu in Activsync is also blanked out, so I can't change any settings (anymore).
The problem occured when I changed some settings that I would like to sync also. (My contacts and emails where not set to be synced, so I activated them earlier today) after that the activsync windows on my desktop only shows that he is syncronizing, but never stops -> As I tried to figure out a solution, I removed my connections that were stored on my phone (I've got 2 'syncaccounts': work and home), and tried to create another 'syncaccount',...alas. Before that I tried to softreset my phone,... also had no effect.
My activsync status (on the phone) says that the server can not be reached, and that there might be a network problem (but why can I explore my folders on the phone then?). So I tried to fix (with the standard repair-option) my lan setting for the phone on my desktop, but that didn't do the trick either...
I really don't know what happenend, and I hope that the forum's wisdom can help me out here.
Thanks in advance,
Leniad
Never mind,
resolved it myself. Hardreset the PPC and installed activesync 4.5
Now it works again.
Still wonder what caused the problem?
Leniad.
I bought my Hermes a couple days ago, and of course the first thing I did was get rid of WM5 for WM6.
The system runs great and I can actually read English, unlike Kanji.
One exception to my high praise is Internet Sharing... the TyTn ROM I flashed the system with seemed to come with a broken sharing app... no big deal, I went on the internet and downloaded it, installed it, and proceeded to watch it not work. The app actually DOES launch now, but when you press the connect button, it quickly cycles on, then back off in the matter of about a second.
If anyone can help, it would be greatly appreciated.... I need tethered internet as soon as possible!
Thanks in advance.
Just a quick bump, anyone think they know why my internet sharing won't stay on?
Oh also, my phone tells me that it detected an unknown USB device attached to it and asks for the driver.. even when it's not connected to anything.
Problems with internet sharing
I also have problems with internet sharing on my Hermes (MDA Vario II) with WM6 Black Satin. Most of the times once I have disconnected from the internet and try to connect later it doesnt connect saying it can not connect due to some unknown reason. Only after a software reset does it begin to work again. Never had this problem on WM5 and have tried closing Activesync completely before reattempting a connection to no avail.
Anybody with an understanding of the problem or solution ?
I've noticed that since upgrading to WM6, ActiveSync 4.5 has been playing up. Since the upgrade, I no longer have the small 'disconnect' icon in the bottom right of the Today screen.
Then, the computer and phone just stopped talking to each other. I tried soft-resets of the phone, uninstalling/reinstalling ActiveSync, tried repairing AS. I've since deleted the mobile devices from AS but now cannot re-add them because there is no connection. However, I am still able to charge my phone via the USB cable but there is no synchronisation going on
In fact, all my contacts and calendar appointments are gone from my phone. Luckily they are still on my PC (and I took a backup just in case).
Any ideas or suggestions would be appreciated.
I had the same problem on my 8525. Not sure if it'll fix your, but it fixed mine. Start > Settings > Connections > USB to PC, then I unchecked "enable advanced network functionality"
thanks GReddySetGO - something must have worked 'cos i can connect to my phone again!
Thanks you saved my life too !!!
wonderful eolenet! i'm glad this has helped others too
and now the little 'disconnect' icon in the bottom right of the Today screen appears too now!
big thanks again GReddySetGO
Hi.
I have an MDA compact III with WM6.
On my PC (Dell Precision M20) I have WinXP Pro, Ofice XP Pro, ActiveSync 4.5.0 (build 5096).
When I connect the MDA via USB, I see a new network connection being established. Howevers, I have a regular GSM contrat, no GPRS, EDGE, nothing.
The PC slows down a lot, synch takes a few MINUTES and after a while it disconnects.
The processor remains captured at 99% by rapimgr.exe even if I physically disconnet the MDA.
The only way to reset the situation is to reboot the PC.
Is there someone out there that may have a clue to what's happening?
Help... I'm desperate!...
Gyc
The last time I had such an error was when I had WM 2003, I had to reinstall Active Sync and the USB driver from my mainboard. Maybe that helps.
Already reinstalled (uninstall+install) AS4.5 several times. Each time it updates USB drivers. No luck!
I have Kerio Personal Firewall 4.0 installed.
Added a rule for rapimgr.exe; tried with Kerio disable - no luck...
Is there any news of incompatibility so that it may be enough to have it installed? (I'd prefer not having to uninstall & reinstall Kerio to try... )
Help...
this is an absolute long shot, i am a complete novice, i know it's probably completely unrelated but if your desperate might be worth a go - seeing that no-one else has any suggestions...
with wm5 i had issues connecting with 'advanced network options' checked on the ppc (settings\connections tab\usb to pc) it just hung for ages, don't know about the rapimgr.exe.
have you tried unchecking this box?
(again i am a novice so please don't shoot me down for an attempt to help, i know this is a daft super long shot)
Hey, for a long shot it looks like you've hit right on the spot.
Unchecking that option solved the problem. Now I don't have Rapimgr.exe hogging 99% of my cpu!!!
THANKS A LOT!!!!!

glad to hear it and be of service, no worries
you have to go to the menu Settings - Connections - USB connection - and "Deselect" Advanced mode (tested on MDA III Compact)
OK, thanks!!!
