Active Sync with Touch HD - Touch HD Themes and Apps

I use Windows XP Pro
1. Active sync can't connect using Bluetooth
I set HD to port 5 as it says, the PC able to connect stereo and everything else but not Active Sync. Any suggestions.
2. I keep Notes on SD Card and Active Sync won't sync Notes from SD. As far as I know in my long ago MIO168RS with WM5 I did not have this problem. When I asked HTC they replied that notes have to be on root….why? I want them on SD this choice should be mine not HTC. Any suggestions.

How do I transfer contacts from my C902 to the touch HD?

I just got my hands on my new Touch HD yesterday and have installed HD Tweak on it. However, I have a really basic question to ask - how do I transfer all my contacts from my previous phone (Sony Ericsson C902) to the THD?
I usually use bluetooth to transfer all my contacts from one phone make to another in the past (e.g. Nokia - Sony Ericsson), but in this case, even after turning on Bluetooth for the THD, my Sony Ericsson cannot detect the bluetooth network.
Is there any other suggestions how I can get this sorted out?
I'm hoping to avoid having to manually key in hundreds of data!! Would appreciate any advice or help thrown my direction..
export from SE in *CSV file -> import them in Outlook (CD with HD has a trial version if needed) on PC -> Syncro by ActiveSync with HD (if C902 is a WM device use PimBackup)

Copy Contacts
Or you can try:
Copy all contacts to SIM > Transfer SIM to Touch HD > Copy contacts to phone memory.
You could use SIM only if you have Nome+Tel.Nr. but if you have more PI (or 2+ Tel.Nr.) else SIM is useless.

I just sent vcards via bluetooth and saved them all in one touch, then everything's ok... Touch is a miracle
HD visible
You have to check a box in bluetooth parameters which says that you want your HD "visible" by other phones.
you can also use outlook. You can use the PC Suite to sync your contacts with outlook then use active sync to transfer them from outlook to your phone

Sync Outlook calendar on 2.1 ROM

Hi,
I'm currently using MCR 3.2.
I must admit : I'm a flash addict.
I tested a lot of ROM. Mainly 2.1.
The only thing that prevent me to switch to 2.1 as daily ROM is because I use HTC Sync to add my work calendar to my Hero. Is there a 2.1 ROM with HTC Sync or another way to do add my Outlook calendar to my hero without merging it to my google one ?
Thx to readind me.
Mik-
Hmmm..........i re-read the last part of your question and deleted my answer.
Exactly the same for me. I am using CKdroid and it is perfect apart from the fact that I cant sync to outlook as there is no HTC sync.
I'm in the same boat - using CKdroid (great ROM) but there's no way to sync to Exchange calendar. I use Gmail (sync's fine) and Google Apps (Activesync) and the 2nd one is not longer possible to sync. Maddening, and counter-intuitive, to remove something that was there in a lower version of the software. Even worse when you think the iPWN gets to sync multiple Gmail/GApps calendars right out of the box..!
Any ideas, anyone?
I wonder if this the same issue I am experiencing.
HTC Sync works well enough to synchronise applications, but contacts only lists "Windows Contacts" - no option for Outlook. Calendar/notes/tasks isn't an option at all.
For the record, I am running VillianROM 1.2.1, an although 2.0 is available as of this morning, nothing in the changelog addresses the problem and I haven't tested this yet. I am running the Outlook 2010 beta but have read about the same problems with Outlook 2007.
htc snyc für 2.01 or 2.1 roms needed
hi to alll!
this is the same problem a face with ALL new roms! there no chance to sync outlook (contacts, calender, notes,...) with htc sync!
htc sync does not recognaice the device (HTC HERO)
i am also lokking for some "easy" solution!
i dont like to sync outlook to gmail and then to htc hero!
thx for advice!

I have had a read through the forums and info about the software and this seems to only cover media, rather than outlook calendar and contacts. Have you tried this?
I have flashed my phone rom with MoDaCo 3.1 (Android 1.5) and HTC Sync still doesn't list Outlook as an option, so I guess this is probably an issue with the HTC Sync software itself.
Update: Android 2.1 does have something to do with the problem I think. I needed to unplug and plug the device into USB a few times before HTC Sync forgot about the limitations of the last ROM and recognised it as a new device.
I'm running villian 2.0.1 and while I sync my outlook through exchange if you use USB to PC there is an option to run HTC sync.
My laptop recognises my phone when i choose HTC sync connection but I can't confirm if outlook sync works that way as i don't use outlook on this laptop.
If i go to sync manager it asks me to set up outlook so it all seems to be communicating fine. Maybe someone who uses outlook and villian 2.0.1 can test it out.

I have a similar problem. When I boot my PC (Windows 7 x64) everything is OK, and HTC Sync works like expected. But when my PC goes to sleep and then wakes up, I cannot connect again. It also happens when I several times disconnect HTC Desire from USB cable.
I also have problem with contacts synchronization with my Google App account. No contacts are synchronized at all.

I spent quite a while mucking around trying to find out why my contacts would not synchronize with my Google account.
Check what type your contacts are on your phone. Are they SIM contacts, Phone contacts or Google contacts?
On my phone, I had everything as Phone contacts. I discovered that only Google contacts will synchronize with your Google account. But all is not lost. You won't have to type in all your contact details again.
What you do is to create Google contacts that duplicate each of your phone contacts. Just create each Google contact on your phone as an empty contact (i.e. no details) with the same name as each existing phone contact. When you see them in your contacts list, they will appear as two contacts at this stage.
Then edit either one of the two contacts. You can link each contact with another contact. If you've use the same name for your Phone and Google contacts it will already be suggesting that these can be linked together. Do so.
You will find your two contacts now appear as one in your contact list. And these linked contacts will now synchronize with your Google account contacts and carry all the details from your original Phone contact with it.
Hope this helps.
i've got by htc desire synching w/ work exchange account and googlemail contacts (ie no data on phone itself). when connected to facebook, it would only synch about 5 of the googlemail contacts, although exchange seemed to be fine.
i cleared out all the data, deleting the synch accounts and tried again. all contacts were downloaded, until... i resynched w/ facebook which removed all the googlemail contact except the same 5 or so.
i'm guessing there's some kind of data conflict, but any idea how to fix it? i kinda like having my contacts hooked up with their facebook profiles, so a fix would be good.
cheers

i have the same problem.
i have installed the HTC Sync from SD card, uninstalled ActiveSync, installed driver and so on. HTC device is recognised in Windows XP x86, HTC Sync starts on Desire, but ends up with Synchronization status: Disconnected.
It's a serious issue for me, as i have used the Outlook Calendar synchronization daily in my office.
Curiously it synchronizes the Contacts well with my Windows7 x64 at home.
Hi,
there is a "Workaround for HTC Hero Sync Problem in Windows 7" which should also work for the Desire.
As I am new user I am not allowed to post links. So google what I have set into inverted commas and it should be the first result from mydigitallife.
Cheers

the Sync works in W7.
the Sync doesn't work in XP.
Phone Monitor recognizes the Desire in XP.
HTC Sync doesn't start sync wizard and says "Disconnected".
USB Debugging is turned "on" in Desire menu.
"Disk drive" option in HTC Sync 2.0.18 menu on Desire works well.
Phone is mounted as:
"Mass Storage Device" in Device Manager->USB Device Contrololers (driver version 5.1.2600.0 from Microsoft)
"MyHTC" in Device Manager->Android USB Devices (driver version 2.0.7.1 from HTC)
"HTC Android Phone USB Device" in Device Manager-> Disk Drives (driver version 5.1.2535.0 from Microsoft)
when choosing HTC Sync in desire after connecting the phone, it's installed and mounted as external drive.
Does anyone have a link where I can download the HTC Sync that comes on the SD card, I put it my own card when I received the phone so never checked the SD card for anything.

[Q] Sync contacts by Category to Bluetooth Car Kit??

Hi
I have recently moved from Windows Mobile to the HTC Desire. In the office we use outlook and exchange where I sync all my contacts with my phone.
However on my old phone in Windows Mobile I had a application running on it that would only sync contacts in a selected category with my Bluetooth car kit, otherwise the sync takes too long.
Is there any such app for android and the HTC Desire?
I basically only want to sync contacts in a preselected category with the car.
Many thanks in advance.

[Q] Best music sync solution

What is the best music sync solution that will sync ratings and playlists from Note 3 to Windows PC?
I use Player Pro and in the past I used a windows sync application Allway Sync. Now I cannot because USB Storage mode is broken on the Note 3. I do not want to use iTunes. Allway Sync needs a drive letter from the Note 3 to work.
Thanks in advance!
