I managed to finally figure out how to use activesync without having to use a cradle. So far I haven't had the troubles that I have had when I used the cable and cradle. No more inactive activesync, can't synchronize errors, and having to restart activesync every few hours or so.
I managed to have activesync running for 2 days straight without any problems and restart of any sorts. This leads me to beleive that using wifi with activesync is more stable than using a usb/cradle.
My question is, can I completely abandon the USB/cradle when upgrading ROM, app installs, or anything that has to do with using the cradle and usb cables?
I don't know the answer for certain but I should think so.
What I need to know is how to sync using wifi without it trying to access GPRS instead.
Any ideas?
My 2s is configured to access wifi first (I think the setting is under the wifi config). If wifi isn't available, then it tried to access GPRS. My carrier charges an arm and a leg to use gprs, so I never configure the phone to access my carrier's GPRS. I rely on free public WIFI access and my home WIFI access to do all my internet jobs.
You'll still need the USB for ROM updates; everything else you can do over WiFi or BT.

Hi nomad,
im trying to configure my laptop wifi (peer-to-peer) and 2s. My 2s can connect to laptop wifi but the activesync is not performing connection or no connection at all. appreciate your help.
thanks.
@3waygeek, Thanks as I have not tried update anything since I pay a service to upgrade my things on my PPC. Sprite also does not like to backup via WiFi. I had to connect the PPC to the cradle.
@hoobas, I have WinXp/Sp2 installed. I have not had any problems connecting other than the occasional ActiveSync annoyance when I'm connecting with the USB cable. I'm sorry that I can't help you. I have not experience your problems so I can not give you a diagnosis.
wifi and MS Activsync
hi nomadman
can u let me know how u set up wifi to sync activesync? i have a WLAN at home and cannot see where the option is to use wifi to sync MS Activesync.
I also want to get away from having to use the cradle each time i want to sync . AT present i am doing it using infrared which is ok but like u said wifi must be better.
Also, i have two machines (a laptop and a desktop) in my wifi network. Desktop is hardwired and laptop hangs off wirelessly. How will my xda IIs know which machine to sync with?
cheers

ActiveSync starts automiatically on USB, serial, and Bluetooth connections. You'll have to use the ActiveSync link located on your PPC to connect to the PC via WiFi. This is assuming that ActiveSync does work on both your PPC and desktop. So it's best to connect to ActiveSync at least once via cradle before going ActiveSync via WiFi.
Only install ActiveSync on either your lappy or your deskop, but not on both. One limitation with ActiveSync is that you can not use more than two partnerships without some fiddling around with your PPC and your networked PC.
About Cradle ActiveSync.
Uninstall ActiveSync -> Reboot PC -> Reinstall Active Sync 3.8 and don't touch any thing or open any programs while installation is in progress.
Mine is working like a charm

How did you do it?
I've used the search function but I couldn't find anything about it.
Thanks,

OK, got it to work, too. Very nice
But I had to set my Network Connection from "Internet" to "Work".
Is it possible to use both settings? My Wireless LAN connects also
to the internet, so I won't switch everytime I want to sync or surf.

In the network settings of yr phone, enter the ip address of machine you want to sync with as WINS server. That will tell yr phone which machine it has to connect to. You can set up peak and offpeak timings in the mobile schedule of activsync on ye PDA, so that it can sync every 10 or 15 mins .
Sorry if my question is too noobish. I have read so many articles talking about establishing wifi sync between a wifi enabled PPC and a wifi enabled PC, but havent been able to do yet. Do i have to have another software to enable the connection ?
Can any one please explain slowly and in detail how you could do that, i've been searching for quite a long time but still no result. And 1 more question is that after i can sync through wifi between my O22s and my laptop, does it affect the wifi connection of my laptop and my O22s? A bit silly right but i'm a new user and i'm not in IT field also. Thanks for any suggestion from you guys.
@azeemakhtar,

@ducga,
1. Install ActiveSync 3.8 on your lappy or PC, but not on both.
2. connect to activesync via cradle first.
3. remove unit from the cradle and reset.
4. click on the ActiveSync link on your PPC and tap on the Sync button.
* The above procedure should be able to get activesync working via wifi as long as there isn't a setting problem in your router managment or firewall.
* The above precedure should work if your are able to connect to the interent on your PPC via wifi.

I also have to do the following:
3a. Click Start / settings / connections / Network cards
3b. Select Network Adapters
3c. Change 'My network card connects to' from 'The Internet' change to 'Work'
3d. Close, reset (for luck)
3e. Open ActiveSync on your desktop PC, select File / connection settings / and tick allow Network Ethernet !!
4. Now when you click on the ActiveSync link on your PPC and tap on the Sync button - it won't try to use GPRS to connect and WiFi will be listed as your Work connection.
I always have to change my network card settings back to 'The Internet' before I can browse again.

Go to ActiveSync on your XDA, click tools, options.
It will say "When syncing remotely with a PC Use this PC:"
It should list the network name of the PC you currently have a partnership with. i.e. "TOMSLAPTOP"

Hi,
Since AS 4.2 came out I have problems to use USB Internet passthrough in Activesync, als AS 4.5 did not solve this problem. I googled around a lot and also searched in xda forums but everyone is giving other instructions, some say this, some say it the other way. It also does not depend on the rom, I had the same problem on the wizard and now also with my TyTN on wm5 and wm6 roms.
So my question is: How to enable USB internet passthrough on ActiveSync 4.5? At the moment my desktop activesync is set to "automatic" in the connection settings, and on my device under Settings->Connections->Connections->Advanced->Select Networks I have "Orange Internet" as the connection which connects to the internet (which has in the proxy settings "this network connects to the internet" enabled). and the work connection is "My ISP" which has no settings at all. I tried to add a new network connection but didn't even know which Modem I have to choose and so I gave this up.
I also tried to set my desktop activesync to either use "Work" or "Internet" instead of automatic but when I try to use Opera, Internet Explorer or any other program like downloading the weather data all programs say that the host or page cannot be found or report a network error.
Can anyone help with this, I'm really very desperate... Cause I also tried to find the correct settings for hours now, but without luck...
Thanks for any help with this subject.

do you use a proxy server for this pass through connection? what activesync partnership do you have setup "Guest" or a Normal one...
First to be able to use passthrough you must be connected to your PC via USB and thus connected to active sync. Active Sync should be fully set-up.
First question;
Can you synchronize your data through Active Sync 4.5.
If yes. Try to tick all the items in the desktop active sync> connections settings. On the space "this computer is connected to" select automatic
second: Can your PC connect to the internet?
If yes open the PC Internet Explorer and try to browse, then, while connected at USB, open Pocket Internet Explorer in your mobile and try to browse. You should be connected to the internet then. Good Luck!!
If still you wouldnt connect there must be wrong on your Active Sync partnership set-up

I don't use any proxy server for connecting to the internet, my PC is directly connected to a NAT Router, as well as my linux box and my girlfriends computer and all work perfect.
As for the activesync partnership, where do I see the type of my partnership or in other words, what is a "guest" partnership? The only thing I see is that my device is named "WM_marc1" and that activesync items sync perfectly but the internet passthrough won't work.
I hope you can give me further advice with this information. Thanks for you help

My data synchronizes perfectly through AS 4.5 and I have already checked all items in connection settings. Of course my computer is connected to the internet (see reply to walshieau) and honestly IE and pocket IE have nothing to do with internet passthrough, it's all about TCP/IP subnetting, bridging, tunnelling or whatever method AS 4.5 uses for internet passthrough.
Sorry if i am not explicit...but i hope this helps. For my wizard i remember i had to install a reg on the PC. It did some changes to the Active Sync registry.
The bad is that i don't have that reg

hi, I am using wm6(LVSW series, black Series and now Official Dopod release) on my hermes, everytime I can successfully connect to the internet via activesync using whatever program like pie, opera, spb insight, weather update, WML etc.
what I have done is simply unchecked the 'enable advanced network functionality' under start -> settings -> connections ->USB to PC and then plug the usb cable to my pc.
I use activesync 4.5.
hope this help

YES WORKS UNDER VISTA TOO
simply check the 'allow data connections on device when conneted to the pc' under connection settings and then plug the usb cable to pc.
Heres the Fix
I had the same problem and this reg key fixed it for me 100%
Download this file AND RENAME IT TO lspvalue.reg
the double click on the reg file on your PC

That's the one i was talking about, thanks i was going to need it too
Ok followed the procedures. I think anyone of them works. Mine worked by changing on PC activesync to "this computer is connected to: The Internet". Nothing else worked. I had the reg hack from the time of my beloved Wizard!
go to:
start -> settings -> connections -> advanced -> select network
make sure that
"programs that automaticaly connect to the internetshould connect using"
"my work network" and not "my isp"
then go to
start -> settings -> connections -> usb to pc
and make sure to uncheck "enable advanced network functionality"
that should do it

Still not working
Why can't someone come up with an ACTUAL solution to this?
When I connect my Tilt to the PC it automatically passes the internet connection through the PC. I did the registry fix and tried all four settings (0, 1, 10, 11) and still my data connection on the phone is overridden by the active sync desktop pass-through. I turned off the advanced networking option and still it goes through the PC. I even went through all the settings in active sync for "This computer is connected to" even though that doesn't even look like it would affect which connection my phone uses. This seems more like a setting within active sync on the phone more than anything.
I use my phone at work for chatting on yahoo IM (with Palringo) since my company network is filtered. I use a program called MyMobiler to transfer the phone display and controls to the PC so I can use my desktop keyboard for the chat program instead of my phone's keypad. Since the network is filtered the internet connection on my phone is filtered too since it's passed through the desktop when I active sync it to use MyMobiler. Sometimes Palringo will hold the connection even after I've connected to the desktop and sometimes it won't.
Bottom line here is can someone come up with an real working solution to this problem that a LOT of people are having?
HOW TO DISABLE DESKTOP PASSTHROUGH WHEN CONNECTING WITH ACTIVESYNC. Search that on google and here and all you will find are people saying "Yeah I have that problem too" or people telling how to connect WITH desktop passthrough.
I have a similar issue. I have my phone connected to my work PC to charge / sync, but all Internet connections attempted by the phone are being routed through my work network until I unplug the USB.
Naturally, that's very bad since all Internet traffic is logged by my work and many sources are blocked. I have an unlimited data plan on my phone. Why can't I stay connected to it when I'm hooked to ActiveSync?
I read someplace that Windows Mobile has an order of preference where connections are concerned. Probably hard line, then wi-fi, 3G and then EDGE. Surely there must be some way to modify this order of preference.
The thread is missunderstood...
The problem here is give to the PPC internet via usb... providede by a PC...
The solution that REG (that works for me EVER!!!).
And now other one provide internet to my PC via usb on phone account
With apologies, I'm not sure I understood what you said there.
But, some of us are actually trying to stop receiving internet by the USB.
I would like the phone to initiate a wireless 3G connection even when connected to the PC. But, thus far, all settings I've tried still cause my phone to attempt to access my business network here at my company.
Big no-no.
have you finally solved the problem?
If so just like to ask if you have change your homepage in ppc? which is
file://windows/default_0409.htm?
and have not run your network wizard? then maybe I have the solution here
Reg key
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer/AboutURLs/
usually it is ( default value )
A.Blank value is res://webview.dll/blank.htm
B.Home_0409 value isfile://windows/default_0409.htm
C.version_0409value isfile://windows/default_0409.htm
if there is a new reg in that one try to delete that file again using a registry explorer ( depends on what you use to view the file)
turn it off for about 30 secs then soft reset... I hope this helps out
I'm not sure that addresses the issue, or mine at least. My phone disables HSDPA the moment I plug the USB cable into the phone and Active Sync takes over. It's before I even open a browser.
Not only does the phone start looking for Internet over the USB Active Sync connection, it looks for non browser related things like weather updates and sending mail to the gmail server.
Somewhere, it's coded to have an order of preference in what kind of connection it accesses. By default, it seems to look for any available land line connection, possibly wi-fi next, then 3G and then EDGE. I'd like to take the land line connection completely out of the equation.
Hi,
I haven't managed to get BT internet sharing working between the TP2 and my laptop. I've been trying to create a BT personal area network that enables internet sharing. Whenever i select the internet sharing option, it claims my laptop doesn't support it.
This is bogus, because i had the same laptop with the same setup working just fine through my old Tytn II. You just enabled internet sharing and away you go! How HTC have managed to mess this up is baffling (and annoying!). Trouble is i need to route my laptop through my phone or it's not very useful.
Is there any way that is known to work?
Thanks for any ideas,
Don't know if this is feasible in your situation, but can't you just use the USB cable and ICS? Tethering through BT would be slower and less reliable than using the cable.
It is easy but I'm not sure if you aware about the new widcomm btooth settings applet. In the 3rd tab, select Networking Manager > Share Internet Connection > Follow On Screen > Done.
I am having the same problems and I have tried the network manager > share internet connection but no luck. what makes my case worse is that i have the Toshiba bluetooth stack. any ideas?
gotta try that with tp2 btw yesterday when i tried to send some files from tp2 to my old hermes (tytn) it didn't work because tp2 claims 'device does not support a suitable service to perform this operation'. however the bt-link between my lap-top and tp2 or tytn works fine and i have used the internet sharing many times with my old tytn
so maby the are some issues with the newer bt? dunno
Eureka! I have manged to get a connection and i am posting this over it. But I tried so many things that I am going to have to delete the connection and start all over again so I can create a step by step guide for anyone that may be intersted. Test enviroment is TP 2 WM 6.1 (obviously) and Toshiba laptop with Toshiba stack running Vista.
You have the same problem as i did if you will get the error msg 'remote device does not support bluetooth PAN' and have a toshiba bluetooth stack. I should be back soon. Wish me luck so I dont mess up everything.
1. Enable BT on TP2 and make device discoverable
2. On laptop right click BT icon --> options --> General --> select PAN networking service
--> yes --> ok.
3. On laptpp right click BT icon --> add new connection --> custom mode --> next --> select your TP2 --> next --> select group ad-hoc network --> next --> next --> finish.
4. On your device --> open ICS --> select bluetooth PAN --> select your PC from list of BT devices --> accept connection on PC.
You should be good to go at this stage cos it works for me. If you dont mind leaving the PAN networking icon on your taskbar then you only need to do step 1 and 4 anytime you want to share your internet connection otherwise it will be step 1, 2 and 4.
Good luck and I hope someone finds this useful. I also hope in the future there will be an easier and more straightforward way to connect. There probably is now but I just dont know it. Half bread they say is better than none. cheers
If the fix from lombardo8 does not work/apply to you - try the following:
1) Setup/ connect an ordinary BT serial port from your PC to the phone.
2) Use the Widcomm BT applet as monx suggested above to setup the rest.
I have found that I cannot initiate any BT activity from my phone to the PC without a connection made from the PC to the phone first - even though the PC and phone both use Broadcomm stacks!
Also my Tytn II worked perfectly with my PC so likely not to be a PC problem.
Hope this helps...
lombardo8 - you are the dude!
this worked! indeed, i too am running the toshiba BT stack. it's the one i found before worked. I had tried creating all sorts of new connections from the PC settings, but the difference you have found is in the BT options/general settings.
Strangely, the "select PAN networking service" box was not checked. i guess this explains why PAN networking wasnt active. however, what is strange is that this must have worked before using my old TyTn II without this setting.
So once this is enabled, it makes a connection fine!
with regard to wire tethering, this is always a handy fallback, but i have found that BT usually worked quite well, once set up and working, additionally you dont need a wire.
For the life of me i cannot get it to work with my work notebook running Win7 and my netbook running Win7 & OSX
It's driving me nuts
Why can't they just leave it simple. Damn Bluetooth 2.1
Is there any chance somebody can have a .cabs to install back the old internet sharing where there is a Bluetooth PAN in the drop down list. I figured that would be alot easier.
I had the same issues with TP2 and a Mac Book Pro. It works perfectly on Windows XP on this machine but not in OSX. I found a solution for OS X though:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=4101986
Thanks for the info but now i'm getting the error msg below
"Failed to establish Internet Sharing connection to remote devices as it supports only Network Access Point (NAP) mode"
What does that mean and how do i configure it in OSX?? Appreciate any help with this as i need ISC in OSX.
Well it means that TP2 thinks that your Macbook offers the internet sharing and not the TP2. I get that same message until i kill the blued and tick that mark again. Then it works until next reboot where i have to repeat the sequence again. Which OSX Version and hardware are you using btw?
Seems the new Snow Leopard fixes some issues with bluetooth. I re-paired my TP2 with Snow Leopard and this works like a charm out of the box. No more fiddling with the bluetooth daemon. Let's see if it stays that way
Just disable DHCP on laptop/PC PAN & u r ready to go.

I'd like to chime in here. I've flashed several 6.5 ROMs, but with the 23016 and 23017 sys roms I can't seem to connect bia BT ICS. The USB cable works fine. It seems that my netbook does not acquire an IP address from the TouchPro. I'd sure like to find a fix for this as I use this technology all the time.

Hi monx!
How do you disable DHCP on the PC's BT PAN profile? I'm using Widcomm/Broadcom firmware 2.1.211.299 by the way.
And if I do disable it, how will the PC get an IP address??
Thanks,

I have a problem attempting to connect my computer (with Windows Seven) with my TP2 to make an Internet connexion (dialing) using bluetooth.
Please note that the connexion work great with a cable between the two devices. But I want to make it work with bluetooth.
So I used the "Internet sharing" in the "Start" menu. I choose "Bluetooth PAN" and my favorite Internet 3G connexion. Next, the TP2 asked me to select the new bluetooth device, and i choose my computer, naturally. Please note that I'm able to establish bluetooth port between my phone and my computer, so they can connect both. And now my HTC attempt to connect with my PC : "looking for bluetooth services" and finally, he said to me : "Remote device does not support personal area networking"...
What did I wrong ? Please help me ! Thank you very much !!!
I would just get Wi-Fi Router and use that:
