Good day,
I have a new iPAQ 614c which I am having a strange issue with. When I tether the phone to my PC to synchronize throught ActiveSync 4.5 the phone sends out a loop back ping. Our security policies (Cisco Security) blocks this request. This is the first Windows Mobile device that I have ever seen do this. I am sure there is a registry key that can be changed to stop this ping. After two days of reading registry entries I am unable to find it. Has anyone experienced this problem and is there a registry modification or work around for this problem. I am also interested in re-mapping one of the soft keys on the home display from HP Shortcuts to Contacts and am still looking for the registry keys to handle this mod. If anyone has any experience with either of these your input would be appreciated.

Hi,
The loopback ping should be somewhere in your TCP settings. HKCU\Software\Microsoft\ActiveSync\... Here you can enable/disable DNSping etc...
For the remapping of the softkeys, try Vic's KeySwop.
Dirk
Many thanks for the quick response.
I have Resco Explorer and will be looking for that registry key.
Well,
I have run in to a brick wall on this one. There are no entries in ActiveSync, that I can find, that have any affect on the loopback ping. I found several references in the ActiveSync registry but none of them would turn off that function. I have also done some internet research and have turned up nothing. The HP Business Forum seems to be dodging this issue as well.

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?

Is there a way with an HTC Dash / Excalibur running WM6 Standard to access network resources on a LAN through the WIFI? I've tried looking for an option in Total Commander, and I installed the Resco Explorer 2007 trial. It seems that Resco's PocketPC version supports mapping drives, but not for the WM6 Standard. I've seen screenshots of what is available in Resco Explorer. That option is omitted for the WM6 Standard version.
I've tried ORB and Soonr. Those seem to be the only methods, but I was hoping for a more native method.
Any suggestions or advice?
Thank you,
Tim
Mapping to Home Network Share
Is this not possible on an HTC S620/S621 ? I would like to be able to map to my network shares. I could then even use Hamachi VPN to connect even if I'm away from home.
But first things first. There seems to be no way to map a drive letter, or even connect via a UNC statement of \\abc\123 ... etc.
So far the only methods I've seen are soonr and orb. I suppose it's a work around, but I was hoping for a more windows native method.
From my research, it seems that those running touch screen / windows mobile professional can do this. If they add Resco Explorer 2007 it has that option. I installed the Windows Smartphone Standard trial version, and the option doesn't exist.
Nor does it exist with Total Commander.
Thank you,

Not possible with WM6 Standard Devices?
Haven't received an answer. I've been googling for a response, but everything I've read seem to indicate that the network mapping thing is a real crippling part of these phones.
I've noticed that this seems to be a major difference between WM6 devices with touch screens, therefore running WM6 professional versus the WM6 Standard Devices.
Touchscreen WM6 Devices can map drives, use remote connectivity software, and even have more advance function in pocket office.
Non-touchscreen WM6 devices can't perform drive mappings, or use remote connectivity software like RDP or VNC.
I'd like to be able to map a drive to my network, and transfer files that way, rather than through activesync. I can't understand how I can obtain an IP using my HTC Dash's WIFI over my wireless router, but yet, not connect in any manner to the network that I have shared drives on.
If someone knows of a way, then please let me know.
Thank you,
Tim
no one has ever mapped a drive w/ the excalibur??
i have tried for months...it seems as if the phone is the big proble. it doesnt support netbios from what i have seen. on my network i can ping it by netbios name and everything from the pc end of things..but from the phone i cant see the computer by anything but ip which is fine. but i cannot acces a share or network drive via \\ip.address. no idea how you would create a share on the phone either

Maybe Microsoft's Live Mesh technology will help this. Apparently there will be a client for mobiles and could give you a way to access your files on the go. (I know this doesn't quite answer your question, but maybe helps solve the problem)
See http://channel9.msdn.com/Showpost.aspx?postid=399577 for some details
How to map a network Drive with Built in WM software.
Hey guys. I have to say the solution is so simple it is Genious.
Simply open up internet explorer on your device and type in \\SHARENAME\
IE will translate this into file://\\sharename\ and if it is password protected it will ask you for the user name and password. You will then be sent to Windows File Explorer, and Viola you are surfing your network resources. You can even save them as a favorite for later use.
I hope this helps.
That doesn't seem to do anything?? Did you get this to work in IE for wm6.1?
I'm struggling to restore BT Dial-Up Networking profile in my i780. I've used known solution for this, but it doesn't work exactly as it should.
After changing HKLM\Software\Microsoft\BTHATCI\Port from '5' (default) to '3', I've managed to get to the stage, where DUN profile is recognised by other devices (my Nokia N810 Internet Tablet in particular), but when I try to actually connect - it fails. However, it seems like really close to the definitive connection - there is BT communication between devices, even Data Call Manager in i780 indicates 'general.t-mobile.uk' data call, while N810 is still waiting for connection and eventually dies.
Because I've had DUN working excellent between N810 and HTC Kaiser, powered by dutty's WM6.1, I've manually checked all DUN-related registry settings in Kaiser and i780 - they are all the same. The only different bits that are relevant here, are \Windows\atcmdint.dll and \Windows\bthatci.dll files. I've tried to copy them across from Kaiser to i780, but I can't - as they are protected by the system.
I don't have any other ideas what could cause such problems. DUN service is detected, I can initiate connection, but I can't get it finally connected. I think mentioned above files are the very last resort in this case. Is there any way of extracting system-protected files from \Windows directory? Or maybe someone has it saved somewhere and could send them out? Thanks in advance for any advise.
I've managed to figure out that phone doesn't respond to ATDT command. It takes AT+CGDCONT=1,"IP","general.t-mobile.uk" initstring correctly (hence Data Call Manager shows APN), but when it comes to ATDT*99# - it fails with the error. I've also tried to dial ATDT*99***X# where X=0-6 but also no luck.
Any suggestions?
I am wondering if it's possible to schedule to turn Bluetooth on and off at specific times of the day, automatically on our Rhodium
Does anyone know of this is possible?
It's not a freebie, but I use SpbPhoneSuite to provide different "profiles". These can be used to turn on/off bluetooth and can also be configured to activate based on time or other triggers (e.g. during an appointment, when cradled, etc.).
As this is primarily a Today Plugin, I've used "Second Today", which gives me a separate today screen (aside from TouchFlo) which I use to access PhoneSuite and change profile if I need to do it manually.
I had a licence for PhoneSuite from my previous phone, so I didn't care about the cost.

I found G-Profiler. Free and alot of config.
BUT... The Bluetooth part dont work.
I've found the reg key for BT on the Rodium:
HKLM\system\state\hardware\
bluetooth=8 is the value for off
bluetooth=9 is the value for on
I havn't found the place to put that value in G-Profiler.
But it's possible to call a prg instead. Mortscript to change this reg-value?
Is this the easiest way? I've had this problem in other prg aswell, so i'd like to know.
Thanks for your replt, however I read that HTC switched from the WM BT-stack, to the WidComm BT-stack and SPB Suite will no longer control BT as we would expect.
Any other ideas?

With SBSH Phoneweaver, Profiling works fine with Bluetooth. Make sure that you use version 1.4.2 (the issue with the BT Stack has been solved in this version)

Ahhh - I'd seen the Bluetooth option, but not actually tried to use it in anger.
D'oh!
Phoneweaver looks as though it might also do the trick, though...
Hi,
I wanted an Internet Sharing button in my Comm Manager so I used Advanced Config to create one. It did so but for some reason it used a version that doesn't allow PAN Bluetooth connections with the PC. I found that there are 2 internet sharing exe's - one is called IntShrUI.exe and doesn't have Bluetooth PAN and the other is IntShr.exe which does.
I've searched everywhere and nosed around the registry but cannot find where to change anything so the button in Comm Manager launches the right one. I even thought of just replacing IntShrUI.exe with IntShr.exe by deleting/renaming but the files are locked.
Does anyone have any ideas? Unfortunately my last query about showing all a day's appointments on the TF3D Home screen didn't get me any help so maybe I'm just asking daft/too difficult questions?
I'd be extremely grateful if anyone can help me out here.
