Arghhhh! Someone pls help me! - General Topics

Hopefully someone can pls pls help me my MDA compact 2 its driving me nuts!
Basically the darn thing wont sync with my laptop, Ive followed the instructions correctly, ive disabled my mcAfee Firewall therefore when I connect it it looks like its going well the tool bar in Microsoft ActiveSync says that its connecting.......
But thats it.
It goes on for ages, Ive made sure that on the compact in the ActiveSync program the connection is allowed to all PC's. I went to the Modem link and made sure that the USB connection's status was active but this stopped the connection.
I'm not on the net, is that why??
Please someone help me! :? Im so confuzled!
Thanks!

hope this helps....
You say you are trying to sync on a laptop.... is this a laptop that you use for work with a VPN client on it?
You describe the problems that I had... after a while I found that the AT&T VPN client that I used has a firewall that it turns on by default even if you are not connected via the client. I believe the cisco client is the same.
I hope this helps you.

Thanks Ive sorted it now, thankfully!

What steps did you take to sort out the problem? That information could be helpful to other users who are having the same problem so please share!
Regards,
Neil.

MDA + wm6 (faria) + Internet sharing + BT

I have searched for the last 3 days and can not come up with anything.
I upgraded to wm6 awhile back and on wm5 I was using dialup networking which worked perfectly.
Now with wm6 I guess you dont have dun anymore, so there's something called Internet sharing.
I found the Internet sharing feature 2 days into my trying to get dun working.
So my problem is Internet sharing does not seem to work.
I run the Internet sharing apps on the mda wm6 phone and it seems like its doing something as it says "connected"
,but when I try and find a bluetooth service from the laptop the only service available is serial port.
I tried using the microsoft bluetooth drivers and figured they were crap and not working so I got the d-link drivers finally working and still nothing.
I am wondering if my Faria's cooked rom is missing something.
Any ideas?
Jeff
I gave up
well... after playing some more I just figured too much was corupted in the registry/rom (faria) for Internet sharing to work.
I flashed to XDA 6.0 and Internet sharing worked perfect.
Now I have to reinstall everthing by hand
I think thats were the problem was as during my upgrade from wm5, I thought I would try and save the reinstall step and I restored from a backup, most things worked ,but little things still didnt work.
hope this helps someone

BT - Internet Sharing - Macs
Well, glad you got it working. I posted a quick set of instructions on my blog for how to connect WM6/BT/Internet Sharing with a Macintosh (since people were a bit confused as to how to do it).

Do you know how to configure Blackberry Connect 4.0.0.90?

Please, if someone knows how to configure the Blackberry service on WM6 please let me know...
i believe you need service for it.
I think he wants to know how to configure it.
I had problems on my Wizard as well. Can't seem to pickup an IP even though I have service for it.

Same problem here.. I have the service, I got the PIN and all stuff but never get connected (no IP)
Any advance / tip / anything on this issue???
Pin not right
After several hours with Tmobile and Blackberry Support, they tell me it will not work on my wizard because the pin is not a correct pin. The guy from Blackberry told me that Tmobile did not pay for this kind of support and that he would not be able to get ti to work. I got an IP, I even was able to send a service request and it come to my phone, but nothing ever would work besides that. I had the blackberry plan from Tmobile and never could get it to accept my pin. Any help would be appreciated, I miss push email.
i am havin the same problem with my wizard using orange

Have you paring your Cruise with your laptop via BT?? do that first, and you have/can surf with your phone so the connection settings are allright??. If you have this 2 done right all you do is open Internet Sharing->Bluetooth PAN-> connect and go to BTnetwork on your laptop klic connect and you are in the net. I use my Cruise as a modem and its works just perfect!! I use a BT Dongle, have no BT built in my laptop

Thank you, Bodisson, for publishing your /autoupdate data. Unfortunately it is not enough to make "working" Windows Update.
As far as i know there aren't any update packages... so even if WU works it won't do anything...

Bluetooth Services Missing

Hiya,
Was just wondering if anyone has come across this problem before...
Trying to make my phone bluetooth sync to my desktop (it works fine with my laptop, so I ruled out the phone as making the problem), and the problem I notice is that the Activesync service is missing from the "Bluetooth Devices">Properties>Services list. The only service listed there is "Telephony".
Another reason that I would like to get this working is to use Sideshow on my phone.
Any help would be much appreciated,
Thanks,
Chris
I've attatched a pic to help me explain the above post =] I don't think I was clear enough before. Hopefully that should clear thigns up a bit.

[Q] Anyone able to use Skype on TG01?

I installed Skype on my HTC 8525/Hermes (custom Schap's ROM for 6.0) a few months ago and it installed with no problem but just won't connect. It goes through the motions with the swirling icon, but finally times out. The same happened when I installed Skype on my 'new' TG01. I looked in the WM forums here and someone said to try a different ROM. I'm now on my 2nd ROM, FXDJ's excellent 6.5 ROM2_0,update 6, and still have the same problem. Of course, I tried it first with the original Orange 6.5 version. I've also tried 3 different Skype versions for WM that all installed with no errors. If anyone has a solution I would really appreciate it! BTW, during install it says have to have wi-fi/Active Sync or 3G connection. We don't even have 2G in this area of Thailand so connected to Internet via Active Sync.
Thanks in advance!
I tried my luck with Skype on TG01 a long time ago, both winmo6.1 and 6.5, found some outdated (even at that moment) skype winmo kits but they didn't seem to work anymore. Skype communication being proprietary, they can change it whenever they want, thus rendering old kits useless...
If however anybody does have Skype on Tg01, please share it with us the noobs that don't know that it works on winmo... Thanks

Greetings a_nini75,
I do remember a Skype announcement last year IIRC saying they weren't going to support WM anymore, but I thought that was just for software updates. Also, other WM users here seem to still be able to connect. My brother has been using Skype on his BB Storm 2 with no problems until recently when it suddenly would not connect to the Skype server. He called his telecom to see if they were blocking the connection but they said no blocking whatsoever. Now that M$ bought Skype one would think that WM support would rise from the ashes. Sure hope someone has a fix!
This is the last Skipe version working on WM

Hi Pere,
Thanks for the link. I have this version already and it didn't work, but downloaded and installed it from your link and it's doing the same thing...showing the Skype white and blue screen with the spinning icon, but not connecting. I confirmed that my Internet connection was good before starting it. Any suggestions?
Thanks!

Greetings pozitiv00,
I've tried that over and over again with 2 different phones, 2 different versions of WinMo and 2 or 3 or 4 different Skypemobile cab/exe files and it still won't connect. The Skype icon just spins. I wonder if connecting directly via USB to Windows Mobile Device Center (W7 Ult.) might cause a problem, since my D-Link Wi-Fi modem is in the shop...again. I've also tried connecting to Skype via cell tower, also no joy. I can peruse any other website except Skype.
This is baffling!
Yeahhh
I can send you CAB-file for SKYPE that works, and U can send me code of some PPC programs whats need it .
OK?

Sure, just send me a PM. I'm not having a problem with installing any of the Skype versions, they just won't connect. They go through all the motions, but just won't connect to the Skype server. As far as PPC programs I'll be happy to share whatever I have.
Thanks!

Greetings jorobg,
I've tried this version already. It installs OK but doesn't connect. How long to "wait and wait longer" before it connected for you?
Thanks!
