Looking for a hand here...
I haven't posted in a while, and before the Senior FLamers hit me, I have already trolled the forums and tried the fixes in the Wikis...
I am having issuies with the BlueDot+Key mappings. Only a few seem affected, and the numbers work fine. I tried using a Reg Editor and changing the keys suggested with no changes.
I am also having a problem syncing with Vista, and can't seem to figure out how to fix it. Not a huge problem, because I have an XP machine too, but would like to sync with my laptop.
Th ekeyboard thing bugs the crap out of me. The ROM is great otherwise. Much more stable and alot faster than I expected.
Vista is a *****. Turn on "Enable advanced network functionality" and try again with syncing to vista.
As for the keyboard, that really has been answered about a thousand times. I believe there's even a cab file you can use. Read in the wiki about the ExtRom's on the cingular phones......
I was able to find an app in the wiki that fixed the problem... Wasnt really clear, and had to guess, but I found it....
The Vista Issuie still stands... The "Enable advanced network functionality" has been on the whole time...
remove the rndis driver from your device manager. Then, uninstall the windows mobile device center and update. Finally, connect the device to vista and run windows updates. Accept all updates. Should work.
Thanks for the reply!
I can't seem to find the rdnis in Device Manager, but I did uninstall and reinstalled WMDC with no change, it still wont aknowledge the phone. The windows XP machine in the other room works fine with activesync 4.5.
I was also curious about the supposed HTML email support in outlook... I have an exchange server, and synced all my email up, but the get HTML option in the menu is greyed out.... Whats up with that?

I'm gonna close this thread because each of the three issues you ask about here is discussed at length elsewhere.
The 8525 Keyboard issue is corrected using the WMXL 8525 Keyboard Fix.CAB file, I don't know how that is unclear.
The Windows Vista Issues are known and discussed at length, please ask your questions in one of those threads it will get you more and better help.
And Finally, the HTML e-mail via Activsync issue requires Exchange Server 2007. Again this is mentioned. discussed etc in several threads.
In closing, before you label anyone a "Senior Flamer" think about how much you enjoy being called a "Lazy Noobie". This is a community of volunteers, you get out of it exactly what you put into it.

I need your help on this. I have tried to sync both messchle's 6.1 roms (4.01 touch and 4.0 vanilla) at home and at work. Everytime I sync for the 3rd time (1 home, 2 work and 3 back home again) I get this same error (86000107) on activesync.
Googling for the sollution ive tried all options (new outlook profile, new partnerships, hard reset, etc.) which would work for a while (1st and 2nd time) but would again hick up at the third time i would sync.
Today i found this thread on the Hermes XDA forum:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=368821
It appears to be the same problem and trouble in solving it. I am wondering if I am the only artemis user with this problem. Perhaps its a WM6.1 issue like was mentioned in their thread. Is Tom's rom any better so this last suggestion can be invalidated?
Will you help on this? Any info?
It would be a great pity if I would have to downgrade to 6.0...
Buggy Wm 6.1?????
BUMP!
75 views and not a single reply! If this problem is related tot WM6.1 i would have expected a little more response, since there are lots of new roms which come out lately.
Well, ive downgraded tot 6.0 anyway and all the syncproblems are solved again. So my best guess is that 6.1 is BUGGY if you want to sync your PPC on 2 pc's!
have been using the wm6.1 now for as long as it's out, bb5.0 from tom and the vanilla and touch versions from meschle now.
have used active sync on my home pc and on the laptop with out any problem.
USB to PC dashed out, cause dashed it always gave me probs active syncen a few time after eachother.
Twiggerdingo, face the same issue today at office. Fix it removing "Task", then "Contact" from the list of stuff to synchronize. Then, put them back and it works now like a charm.
Hope it helps.
Thank you for your fast replies on my post! Happy to see that you have everything working! I use tasks (approx 100) and appointments (700 total upcomming and last 2 weeks?) and depend a lot on it.
I saw the 'tasks' sollution as well and already tried it of course, but it made no difference. Sometimes it works, but then another day it did not. I do not have the time to solve it this way on a daily basis, and with me, the problem came back about 4 times a week (home and at work, on different occasions).
Hope the will be more info on this - and what causes it. Thanks again for your replies.

Re: active sync encountered a problem on the desktop Support Code 86000107
Was this post helpful ?
Although leaving TASK unchecked will temporary fix the problem, but that means you cannot sync TASK.
If you want to fix it properly, please follow these steps:
1: unplug usb cable if you are still connecting it with your WINDOWS MOBILE
2: Open MS Outlook (I m using 2007 as an example), go to File- > New -> Outlook Data File , and create a new PST file (what ever name/ location)
3: In outlook, Tools ->Account settings, then click Data Files tab, click the new PST file that you had just created, and set as default , then restart outlook
4: delete activesync partnership in both Windows Mobile and in your Desktop
5: Plug the WM to the USB port, and it should sync properly again.
6: restore the backup by using MS Outlook's Import and export function
It worked!
i have same problem, my solution:
first backup all data in phone (contacts, messages, calendar, ...)
check which category is problem (Contacts, Calendar, Task, ...) - in setting remove all checkboxes and let synchronize, then add one category and synchronize go on until you get error
uncheck problem category, delete all data in PC in problem category and let synchronize again then add category back - should be ok

Ive tried this as well and yes it worked (for a while). 2 syncs later the same thing reoccured. Strange thing is that pre 6.1 roms give me no problems whatsoever.

Suggestion
Have you tried this?
Open registry (using something like task manager). Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\Version and change from ".1.0.0" to ".4.0.2"
Let me know if that works!

This registry edit don't work for me. I have same error for calender sync between outlook 2003 and outlook 2002. Other Task and note can sync without error.
I faced the same problem a few days ago. Im using HTC Prophet and using one of WM 6.1 builds.
86000107
I have the same problem on my kaiser.
However, mine only occurs after syncing at home AND at work. If I reset my device and resync with my home machine only, the problem goes away.
(having read the 1st post again, it may be exactly the same symptom - I will syncing again at work on Monday, and then back at home.
Why are people pointing to thier PCs as the problem when the common thing with this scenario is the wm device itself, and the fact that when I hard reset, it syncs ok again... maybe there's a problem with activesync on the WM device in this multi-sync situation?

Looks like my problem is that I need to sync with microsoft exchange directly at work. I will try syncing at home again tonight and then at work tomorrow to see if the problem has gone...
Right now I deleted partnership between PC and phone and erased all stuff (contacts, notes, calendar and tasks) in Outlook (there were some deplicities anyway so I had to clean it). I created new partnership. During sync it told me that it can not sync 3 notes in calendar so I erased them and did sync again. It finished properly and its working now.
Lets see if it will stay like that.

Nope, sync'd at home and got the same error - and my calendar won't sync now...
What now. If I delete the partnerships, I can sync to either machine ok, but not both...
I wonder if it's a 6.1 problem?
I am now in the situation where syncing at work is fine - I sync direct with microsoft exchange for contacts/calendar/email/tasks and have a work profile for the notes. Great.
Now I need to be able to sync contacts/calendar/tasks/notes at home... I'll keep trying...
It seems that this 86000107 is some sort of catch-all. No-one seems to know exactly what it's all about. Is there any logging I can switch on and look at to identify the error?
same here...
Hi!
i've got the same problem:
at home I'm running Vista Home Premium SP1, Office 2007 SP1 and MS SyncCenter 6.1
at work it's XP pro SP2, Office 2003 SP3 and ActiveSync 4.5
I can sync my Kaiser (Dutty's WM6) with each single of them without a problem, but not with both - as soon i connect it to the second machine an sync starts, it gives the error 86000107
no clue what to try next...
bye,

Had the same error, many people don't flash their roms twice. I decided to give it a shot:
1: Hard-Reset your device
2: At PIN connect device then flash Touch 4.01
3: At PIN flash again Touch 4.01
4: At PIN flash radio 03.08.90
This takes some time, but now my device runs flawlessly! Try it out...

Hello there, IF this works, it would be great! are u for sure to have synced it 3times (i mean at home-work-home) after reflashing twice?
Sure the error doesn't reappear?
I now have the same problem.
After reinstalling Office 2003 and active sync the problem is still there.
I hard resetted the ROM and installed a backup that didnt have this problem, and also this didnt resolve it.
I did see that the problem is with the Calander.
It is a strainge problem because it came out of nothing
Is there any software I can use on Windows PC that use Active Sync to send the sms using my mobile. So I type the SMS on my PC but it go out trhough my HTC HD... Any idea?
I cant see why youd want to do that as messages are only 160 characters each so you wouldnt save time or anything...
but no, there is no such app.

Hi Zeshan,
please attached file
Br
Actually you can try Jeyo Mobile Companion. I use it myself and it seems to work well.
Hope it helps...
You can also try something that was posted in these very forums not long ago - PocketSMS. Not only can you do that but it synchronises your contacts and the like also.
Give it a search :thumbup:
try efficasoft
zeshan77, i fully recommend efficasoft as sep recommended. I use it every day, very nice and simple. Has an outlook type interface. And dont listen to ask, u can type ur texts a LOT quicker on a computer keyboard than u can with the touch screen.
thanks guys, ofcourse while working on computers all day, it obviously feel more easy to type the sms on pc and send using your mobile network operator. I will try the softwares recommended over here. Thanks alot.

Your obviously wrong about both of your answers: There are such apps (as listed by others before me) and ofcourse it makes sense to send them via PC if you have your phone docked - not to mention the increased typing speed on a real keyboard.

Old topic, but i need to make it work for me now.
I have Windows 7 x64, and none of the programs is working correctly.
- efficasoft install the cab but then the windows client gives me a timeout error.
- PocketSMS after installing the cab starts giving random errors about arithmatic overflows etc..
- smssender 0.1 doesn't work
- i don't want mymobiler to see the mobile screen to write the sms, i want a normal windows program that connects to the mobile
are there new solutions??

hey i Just managed to get it working on my W7 x64 PC.
efficasoft - try it with Windows Vista Compatiblity mode and run it as admin.
works like a charm. ( establish active sync connection before that)
works via bluetooth too

I am trying, but it doesn't work, it installs the client cab on the mobile (Step 1/4) but then blocks on "Initializing Mobile Express Connector (2/4)" by saying Timed out connecting to device.
i am running as administrator, and vista compatibility mode...
- Does it matter if i have too many sms's on the device?
- Does it matter what is the ActiveSync configured to synchronize with the device? i have all services disabled, i connect it with active sync only to copy files on the device, no outlook, no nothing....
I have the same issue.
I have over 12 thousands sms in my inbox, and it's time to archive them and empty my device.
Efficasoft works here, connects to device, starts downloading sms (when doing i see a number next to inbox or draft folder showing unread messages), but since i have too much sms it needs more time than the software gives, and then it says timeout.
It's not a timeout, is just it should wait more, but it doesn't.
Somebody have a solution?
I am using version 1.55.
In my ROM (ENERGY 16FEB and above) there is a problem when using MS messaging. the SMS won't send and only wait in the outbox.
will these apps (like efficasoft) will work with the Manila SMS?
Hello
I am searching for a tool, and maybe you guys can help me.
With my previous phone (ericsson k750i) I used a program called MyPhoneExplorer.
It automatically connects itself to your cell and allows you to send sms via bluetooth (advantage: typing on the computer)
Now I'm using windows mobile (on the xperia) but I can't seem to find such an app. (probably because there are so many windows mobile apps)
I found one that works, but it is not free.
(link)
What do you guys recommend?
Tnx!
i used mymobiler
jeyo mobile companion
jeyo seems to be what i'm looking for
are you able to let it sync your contacts?
yes, it downloads the contacts from your phone and sim.
and ofcourse upload it to your phone when you edit contacts.
it works like a backup system. so you always have a copy on your pc.
super, gonna try it soon, when my x1 returns from the warranty service :-(
Hey guys,
Just received my HTC 7 Pro today.
So far i am liking the device and the OS, but one thing is annoying me:
- The first Windows Live ID you configure will sync all your contacts etc.
All of the Windows live contacts are added to the phone's contact list (which is rediculous because i talk to people on Windows Live which i have never even met IRL.....).
Is there any way to exclude the contacts from my list and still keep the Windows Live ID account? (of course i do want to keep the marketplace features etc).
I read this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=847139
But that didn't really solve the problem either.
The deeper problem is that i have a Windows mobile 6 phone which i want to sync up with this one. But if all contacts would be in 1 list i would end up with around 300 contacts......
Have many people here bit the bullet and finetuned their real-life phone contact list with Windows Live / Facebook?
If so, what was the easiest way to sort it all out?
Thanks in advance.
PS.
I think if MS would have just used the contact groups/categories settings (which you can set in Windows live messenger) all would have been fine.
An option to hide or always 'fold' and show certain groups at the bottom would have solved this entire issue (which a lot of ppl seem to have).

I already used my Windows Live account to organize all my contacts and emails and such before I got my windows Phone, so this was not an issue for me.
Unfortunately you cannot disable contact sync'ing from Windows Live, but you can filter your contact list in the People hub. So you can hide them, but they'll still be sync'd in the background.
The only real workaround if you don't to hide your Windows Live contacts would be to actually go and organize your Windows Live contacts so that they are useful.... or delete them all. XD
Hmm, i might be able to live with the hide option but can't seem to find it anywhere. Is it a mango beta feature?

I am on Mango, but I'm pretty sure you could always filter out contacts since the beginning of Windows Phone. Though to be honest, i don't know if you could filter out Windows Live contacts before Mango.
Look in Settings > People, then there should be an option titled 'filter my contact list' or something similar. If its not there, then i guess its a Mango-only thing.
I had similar experience like this when I was using windows mobile and synced it with my hotmail... It synced all my email addresses I ever sent an email to, to my phonebook... I knew something like this could happen again with windows phone again... So I created a new live id just for my phone with no contacts and anything . I only use Google contacts and calendar and my live id is only for SkyDrive ...

All i see when i go to Settings > People is:

So, how hard is it to obtain the latest Mango update?
Also, is there an easy way to import old text messages from WM 6 to WP7?

Yeah looks like this is a Mango only feature. That check mark for Facebook contacts that's currently in the NoDo release of Windows Phone 7 turns into a button that lets you filter contacts from multiple sources (Twitter, Facebook, Windows Live, etc.). So I guess you aren't gonna see that feature till Mango. Sorry.
Text messages cannot be imported to Windows Phone 7, and they cannot be exported from Windows Phone at all.
If you are a dev, you can get Mango very easily. But if you aren't, there are some methods around here on XDA you can use. Only problem it, when the real Mango comes out this fall, you have to go back to your current version of Windows Phone (which is gonna a couple months old backup by the time Mango comes out) before you can update to the final release of Mango. Just part of the fact that this is beta and really not meant for daily use (even though it far exceeds the quality of a typical beta product).
Thanks for the info man.
So, if i wait for mango i wouldnt have the roll-back issues, since right before the update the phones state will be backed up?
One more small question:
Does Windows Phone even read/handle SIM contacts (haven't had a SIM in the phone yet)?
If not i'll just update my Windows Live contact list till its current and start using it (untill Mango comes out and i can filter/hide the contacts i don't wish to see).

Yes, if you wait for the official release, then you will only need to update your phone once Mango officially comes out. All your settings will be retained and your phone will be backed up as part of the update process.
Windows Phone 7 can import your SIM contacts from the settings > people menu (you should see a button to import SIM contacts). But it does not display any contacts stored from your SIM. Once you import your SIM contacts, they get copied to your Windows Live account.
yup
import from sim option
Hmmm, i put in my SIM card etc. The network is working fine, but the option to "add SIM contacts" is greyed out and i can't select it.
Any ideas?

If the option is greyed out, its because your SIM has no contacts to import. Or maybe they are in some foreign format from some unknown device? Not sure. I have some junk SIM contacts that T-Mobile put into my phone, and they import fine when I press the button.
You sure the SIM card has contacts?
Hey,
I am positive the SIM has contact information since my other phone (HTC Touch Pro / WM 6.1) recognises them.
There are around 60 contacts on there or so...

Not sure then. If the option is greyed out, it means Windows Phone does not see any contacts on the SIM card. In which case, I cannot help you with that. Maybe plug the SIM into a different non-WP7 device, and try to clear out the SIM and then re-copy your contacts to the SIM? Not sure if that'll help.
u can't prevent sync of contacts in the primary live account on pre mango wp7, this is why I created a new live account,imported my contacts to it and then added that new live id first when I got my windows phone so if u hadn't really done anything important id recommend performing a hard reset then re-sync with the new live account. or install the mango beta.
I think i might have a solution here:
