ok, I have an o2 orbit running WM5, and everything has been going fine..not had any problems since I installed the SD card corruoption app, and I've not even changed the apps running on it for 2 months as everything was just perfect.
but, I've been reading that WM6 would be faster (I do get the occasional hang while the machine trid to catch up with what I'm doing), so I am thinking about the upgrade.
however, a lot of the posts I've read seem to indicated that I need activesync 4.5. I've tried this at least 3 times in the past, but it refuses to work on my machine and each time I have to go back to 4.2. Bsically the application on my pc locks up, never connects to my device and I have to end the application.
so, do I really need 4.5 to upgrade to WM6...and then again..do I really need WM6...is the improvment that much better?
yes, you need it
ok thanks...I guess no upgrade to WM6 then. AS4.5 just refuses to run on my machine
You only need it to sync with your pc. I use 4.5 at home but don't have it at work so I use WM5storage to transfer files to and from my works pc
that's just it though, 4.5 wont sync with my device...it just hangs.
Well i have upgraded my Dash Rom to WM6.1 and no major issues so far. One thing is bothering me though. I had BB Connect (version .67) with WM6 and it worked just fine, but its completely dead with 6.1. I have tried all possible versions of BB Connect with no success. The PIN and everything is generated, but the IP is not connected. Is there anything and/or any version of BB Connect that can be used? I need my BB connect to get my work mails. since im on the BES Server.

Hi Buddy
I'm really sorry to report I read that all v4 Blackberry Connect versions require WM6.0 and will not function with WM6.1. I also read that RIM has decided to cease development of BBConnect for WM.
Sorry, I have the same problem so if you ever resolve it PM me but I am now pushing at my company to see if we can get PushMail running...
Yours

After upgrading my HTC touch pro 2 to the new relased Windows Mobile 6.5 i have two problems that I don't know how to solve.
1./ I am using Lotus Notes Traveler to synchronise with my mail at work - when changing to WM 6.5 synchronisation is only working when usin WLAN.
3G/GPRS etc does not work - it has something to do with "port 80" etc - can anyone help me out?
2./I had previously WM 6.1 and had installed TomTom 7.
When upgrading to WM 6.5 I only get a message that TomTom doesn't work with this version. Is there any way to "get around" this?
All I can tell you is that I validated Traveler on both the HTC TP2 and the AT&T Tilt 2 running WinMo 6.5 and ran it for a week with no issues.
Are you using a VPN client to connect to your server, or are you running an SSL setup, or a server outside the DMZ?
Maybe this is a port blocking issue from your network.
I am trying to connect via the telephone operators server (3G/GPRS) through to an IP-adress (our company server)
This worked very well when I had installed traveler on WinMo 6.1 but I haven't managed to get it operational when doing the same installation on the WinMo 6.5 platform.
As I mentioned via my home-WLAN it works perfect.
If you are using a url for the server address, try using the ip address instead.
Thank you golfer_boy, for pointing me in the right directio.
I have spent a good portion of the day, thoroughly running through my telephone-provider settings, and found out that there was something strange with some proxy-settings.
Now I have Traveler up and running at full speed.
If you hadn't encouraged me stating that you had been running it, I would probably not have put all that effort into it.
Thank you fo the support and best regards!
Glad I could be of some help.
We started using Traveler about six months ago for our US PDA users and it has proven very reliable for us. I have compared e-mail delivery to the same device running BB Connect and found no difference. The only thing it lacks is a corporate address book lookup but that has not proven a big problem for us.
Hello,
I have the same problem (working with WLAN, but not 3G/GPRS), but it is no difference in using a host or an IP-adress. Any other idea?
(Using Samsung omnia II (winmo6.5) now, worked before with SE Xperia (winmo 6.1))
Soren5939, what was the solution? was it the host/IP?
My admin has told me to disable proxy, but in 6.5 I don't find this option...
Soren5939, I'm having the same problem with a HTC Touch Pro 2 on Winmo 6.5. Exactly what did you change in the proxy settings?
Hi,
is there anybody who can explain how to install the traveler properly on WM6.5?
Want top update my phone to WM6.5 but want to be sure that Traveler will work and I do not know if I can install the current Traveler on WM6.5 at all. And IBM still says that they just support till WM 6.1. There support do not even know if or when they will update Traveler.
Thanks for your help
Just updated to Win Mobile 6.5. Installed the Lotus Notes Traveler for Win Mob 6.1 and everything worked.
Cheers
Unable to install Lotus Traveler 8.5.1 on HTC Windows mobile 6.5
Hi Can you pls help me as I am Unable to install Lotus Traveler 8.5.1 on HTC Windows mobile 6.5
Thank you
I was working with the Traveler for a few month on WM6.5 with no issues but since i switched to WM6.5.x (6.5.3 atm) it only syncs for the first time after being installed. From then on it gets an Error 8.
I tryd this with several roms but with no positive result.
Can anyone confirm this?
btw: Im on a TOuch HD
I too work with Notes Traveler and the latest release of any custom rom i use puts the phone into an unusable state (mostly non-responsive). I have Tried Juicey R8 and Energy Leo.
I'll have to try a stock 6.5 ROM in the future. If not.. it will be back to 6.1.
Update: I removed my SD storage card and soft reset. Phone works fine with Notes Traveler and Energy Leo ROM. I'm in the process of reformatting my SD card to see if that helps.
Update2: My TP2 running Energy Leo works fine as long as my storage card is not in the device. Maybe there's a DLL issue with accessing the storage card when one is present.
Seeing something similar here.
Phone: HTC TP2 on Win Mob 6.5 (Vodafone UK Rom)
I have now spent a few days messing around with this, and this is where Im at.
1) Im pretty sure the Notes traveler install messes with my phones ability to turn off the screens backlight off, but Im sorted that with a Reg Fix
2) Can confirm that Notes traveler doesnt like switching networks (WLAN, 3G)
3) It too installed for me the first time, but as I saw other issues with the phone I had to flash the ROM again.
Same problem here.
Install Traveler and the first sync works fine. After that there is no send/receives. My IT guy has the same phone and ROM so I am not sure WTF is going on.
Any help would be great. Someone had posted that they fixed theirs, but did not include what the hell they fixed.
Any comments???
Problem is solved
the new Version of the Notes Traveler (8.5.1 fixpack2 otherwise called 8.5.1.2) is fully compatible with WM 6.5.x
I installed the new version on our server an flashed a 6.5.x ROM onto my HD2.
Then you´ve to update the client version on your phone
The traveler is know working fine.
Greetz,
Mirco
I can confirm that Traveler 8.5.1.2 works perfectly fine on my TP2 with stock WM6.5 ROM. I tried syncing over 3G and WLAN.
And btw., does anyone know if it's possible to sync only mail, not calendar, using Traveler? I know it's not officially possible, but maybe some registry hack?
Traveler and WinMobile 6.5.3
I've found a problem using 6.5.3 on my X2 when trying to Sync with Traveler.
1st sync is perfect, but everytime efter that the phon keeps sending calendar updates until you tell it to stop. If you try to wait and see how many calendar entries it sends you'll be out of battery before it's done.
It starts with 0 of 9 ( example )
1 of 9
2 of 9
And keeps on and on. And goes beond 9.
After a few hours you'll be looking at 2469 of 9
Any suggestions any one.
Hello dicksoft.
Please, try set Mail and Calendar settings from "Show all" to needed period.
Maybe You syncing too many Calendar events.
In Traveler - Menu/Settings/2.Mail and Calendar
Show past events
Show upcoming events
Example:
Show past events- 1 Month
Show upcoming events- 3 Months

I m using Traveler 2 weeks on daily basis.
Evertything works fine.
No network switching issues - syncing works fine on WIFI and also GSM. But I have it set to 2G not 3G. Its saves my baterry.
No backlight issues.
I recently got a Touch Pro 2 running WM 6.5 to replace my Mogul running WM 6.1. Using WMWifiRouter I could use the Mogul to connect various laptops to the Internet. They included a Dell Inspiron running Vista, an Acer Netbook running XP, and a Fujitsu 810 Lifebook running XP Tablet Edition. Although all three "connect" with the Touch Pro 2, only the Fujitsu connects to the Internet. The other two do not. I've also tried the TP2 (unsuccessfully) with a Toshiba Portege running XP Tablet Edition. I have compared the networking settings of the Fujitsu with each of the other machines, and wherever there was a difference, I reset the other computer to match the Fujitsu. Despite all of this, I sill can access the internet with only the Fujitsu. (I get the same pattern of results if I use Bluetooth instead of wifi.) Can anyone suggest an explanation . . . and a solution?!
I would try hard resetting the phone after you backup everything. If you installed a custom ROM, try reflashing. or even try reflasing the original ROM. My TP2 worked fine for the first week or so, then out of the blue I couldn't connect to ANYTHING using the WifiRouter! Once I reflashed, it all worked again and has been working since.
Is reflashing the answer?

I may have to do that. I would be more inclined to that if in fact I couldn't connect ANY computer to the internet using my Touch Pro 2. In this case, I am puzzled that a Fujitsu tablet running the same XP Tablet Edition as a Toshiba Protege tablet can access the internet via WMWifiRouter (or a Bluetooth) connection, but the Toshiba can't, and neither can netbook running XP or a laptop running Vista.
(The TP2 came with WM 6.1 and I upgraded it soon after I got it to WM 6.5 using the "official" Sprint ROM.)
I'm still interested in hearing if anyone has any explanation of what may be going on here, as well as a fix for the problem.
I used to have a control that could manually select profiles; Car, Home, Work etc. It also switched to Car automatically when the carkit was connected. Maybe it wa in WM2003 or WM5. But I can't find it in any WM6, 6.5 ROMs.
Can someone post the cab for it plz?
Thanks.
the lack of profiles in windows mobile is annoying. any crappy 10 year old nokia phone has several customizable profiles, wm still doesn't. while i haven't thought about it in ages, i have to admit, if anybody has a nice app for that, i would use it as well, especially if it supports hardware changes like you say. different profiles for car kit, charger, BT handsfree... would be nice.
That's odd that no WM had it - maybe it was bundled in an Operator customisation then (e.g. Orange or O2)...trouble is I've blown all my old ROMs away!!
Anyone up for building a neat Applet then?
Have you all tried something like SPB Phone Suite? I think this comes with this option.
