I am trying to connect to MS Exchange from my office, to synchronise Calendar and Contacts.
So far the seerver refuses the connection.
I use Android 2.2.1 ROM ZSJPJ/OZSJPG/ZSJPG deodexed from Ramad, rooted.
Android 2.2 is supposed to be compatible with MS Exchange. Does anybody have experience in synching with MS Exchange, or any idea what the problem could be?
Because I have a deodexed ROM, rooted the phone?
thanks,
P
i guess the problem is with exchange server.
i use exchange on every rom (doc's, official deodex, darky, etc) cause i got all my contacts there and i never had a problem with it.
try and see your settings. btw i use Exchange 2007.
hi,is anyone have issues with google syncing accounts such as contacts,weather etc on their desire?I've been trying to update them all morning but kept getting the following message "sync is currently experiencing problems.It will be back shortly".I'm in the Uk, using an unbranded and unrooted phone running an official android 2.2 froyo.
I have the same problem with contacts not doing the sync. I changed an e-mail address in a contact on my desktop browser yesterday, and when I wanted to e-mail that contact from the phone I still had the old address. I tried to sync, but no changes.
Anyone else? I think this is a long time issue for me, had problems with calendar sync too, wondering if there is anything to be done (except wait for gingerbread and hope that fixes it).
Stock, unbranded froyo.
Clear contact storage through settings-Application. Then sync.

That did it. Thank you!
I have now found a well functioning ROM, InsertCoins. The only thing that is not ok, is that I can't set up my Exchange account with ActiveSync in sense 2.1-3.0. Have tried several ROMS and have found that there must be something with the security policy in the sense 2.1-3.0 that is different. LeeDroids ROMs work "normally", but they do not have the user interface I want.
Got a tip about using TouchDown with ActivSync. It works, but then I'm stuck with touchdowns calendar, which I do not like anything special.
I'm surprised that I don't see many that have the same problem as me, so I wonder if there's something about the policy in my company who do this, or there are few that uses exchange account on their htc rooted desire .....
I'm running InsertCoin GB Sense v1.03 with Exchange Active Sync to our corporate mail server. Works just fine.
Our company uses a policy to force a PIN or password, with a maximum unlock time of 1 hour. Also it is Exchange Server 2007 (not sure which updates/fixes have been applied ATM).
Which version of Exchange Server is running in your organization?

I think that my company use Exchange Server 2007.
I get this message after I get through all registration and ready to finish...
"Exchange Policy error
Unable to sign in to your Wxchange account because your policy settings are incompatible with those on server.
Please contact your IT team for assistanse"
I believe that our security policy have max unlock time of 15 minutes..
Try another mail-client like e.g. K-9 Mail:

I can confirm that. No problems at all with Exchange integration. I have 3 (!) accounts push-synced on my RCMixS 1.6.2. Must be something else then.

Tried RCMixS 1.6.2 now, get the same error after i make pin code.
In additional to the error message it says:
Security Policy Required
Policy Setting incompatible:
Allow storage card
Allow Desktop Sync
Contact your IT administrator for assistance...
I could stay at a working sense 2.1 version, but after seeing all the new features, I really whant to find out what it is that is not compatible. If not, I'll use Touchdown, it's the only way to get exchange to work.
So, what do Touchdown have/do, that can work around androids/my companys security??? I whish I knew... I hate the calendar in Touchdown, and I'm not able to use Jorte calendar or other calendars....
I did not have this problem with old interface, in any roms....
It makes me insane that I cant find out why this is....
Update: It was my company that had to make ajustments on exchange server to newer versions of Android. Now it works fine.
I have the same problem
I'm having the same issue. After running MikFroyo for about 6 months, I've been impatiently waiting for some GB rom to get stable and fully-functional enough to use as a daily--then of course as soon as I had a taste of Sense 3.0, that's what I want to run... For me, I'd be fine with using Touchdown (I just want the email), but I get the same error with that app as I get with Sense's embedded Exchange AS setup: Authentication error. I've checked and rechecked my username and password several times, and it works fine when I go back to Froyo (whatever sense). I'm on MikG sense 2.1v0.5, and I've tried VR Kingdom (Sense 3.0). I really like this MikG rom, that's pulled several elements of S3.0 into the 2.1, because it will run on my favorite kernel from way back in the Eclair days when I was running BakedSnack (this is the first GB ROM I've found that runs smoothly under my BakedBattery kernel-- hero-over #7).
I've rambled. I plan to check out some of the other mail programs mentioned above...
UPDATE: I tried Touchdown and k-9 Mail and DroidMail, all with unsuccessful results. I had submitted a case with the IT group at my company this morning and was waiting for some action on that (IT group is in India). A tech IM'd me and asked me what version of Android I was running--I told him 2.3.3, and he disappeared. So, I tried one more time on the native Exchange AS app, and viola, it worked--email, contacts, calendar are all syncing now. The notes in the case closure email state, "we have enabled your new device ID in server..." It seems like I noticed awhile ago that what my phone was called had changed, and I thought it was a GB thing, not a sense thing... Anyway, this may be a one-off case, or it may apply. Either way, I just wanted to update.
I also have problems using HTC's default mail client ever since Sense 2.1 and Sense 3.0.
I get the incompatibility with our corporate server due to:
- Remote Desktop
- Desktop sync
- S/MIME
Worked fine with Sense 2.0.
HTC must have changed/enhanced their security policy which has caused this issue.
Touch Down works, but if you actually go the "Security policies", it does mention incompatibilities with above, but it is ignoring them for now.
I wonder how one can report this to HTC?
I have similar problem - my corporate exchange does work only on Froyo (stock, Starburst) but fail to connect to server on Gingerbread CSW. I have tried Gingerburst, LeeDrOiD HD V3.3.1-Port-R2, RCMix S v2.0, InsertCoin 1.0.8 and all have same issue - server not available. Does GB identifies somehow differently? I know that server checks IMEI, but that is the same
Any hints would be welcome
Guy's,
I have upgraded to 5.2 and setup my hotmail account through the exchange active sync with push mail.
When an e-mail is received and I delete it from my phone it deletes then a minute later my phone goes off alerting me to a new e-mail only to find its the same e-mail back in my inbox again...any ideas?
This was happening on 5.1.11 too but not on rom's before this...help its driving me mad!
It's a bug with the sense email app. It has something to do with the ssl certificates hotmail uses, and the sense email app not accepting them. Basically, if you use an AOSP rom, you'll notice that there's a checkbox for "Accept all SSL certificates" when you're setting up an exchange account. On a sense based rom, it doesn't have that. I was hoping the new base would've fixed it, but they still haven't fixed the problem.
Thanks for the info...thats interesting as in version 5.1.11 it worked a treat...
That's even more interesting because I haven't been able to get it to work properly on any sense rom, including the stock rom on my Inspire.

Whoops, sorry totally got the wrong version in my last post there! It was the version before 5.1.11...it was beta 4 (sorry not sure on version number)...however it did have sense and it worked a treat...
Hmm I have even tried version 5.2 and flashed the no sense script but still an issue....
Don't suppose there are any rom's out there with it working? I would go back to the B4 version however it was very laggy :-(
I have finally found a working solution to get the exchange active sync working!!
I have downloaded the android mail client that was released in 2.2. Setup my hotmail account and I now have true two way syncing with push mail!!
Drop me a pm with your e-mail address and I will send over the apk...alternatively I found it from google
Hi guys.

I read all the info there is on this forum about problems witch that mail but nothnig works even via hotmail app there are times it can sync with server. Anyone had similar issue ? when i used GenY rom even the stock mail app didm;t had any problems.
Any ideas what can it be? And how to fix that ?
