Faria - The Real Thing --> problem with contacts, calendar, date - 8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development

well, congrats Faria! real good stuff!
But, i bought my PDA so i can have my calendar/contacts with me all the time and up to date and im not getting that...
first let me describe the problem:
1 - Contacts sincronize but the birthdays are all mixed (birthday from "ana" goes to "antonio" and bday from "antonio" goes to "jose" and so on)
2 - Calendar just dont sincronize or takes forever (several entries on OUT 2003 some day appoint, and birthdays that repeat every year)
3 - Date keeps changing random (doesnt takes the PC date/hour or any other date/hour that is configured)
tried these sugested fixes (from other posts):
- Hard reset after aplying regional settings and sync after that. (didnt work with neither problems)
- Sync only contacts (didnt resolve anything)
- remove "today Agenda" before sync (same)
- Remove the "enable advanced network functionality" from "usb to pc" (still a disapointment)
i really need some help, and from the forums, some other people have the same problem.
from monday until today, i reseted the device about 6 times and didnt resolve the problems...
i will be waiting for the resolution...
btw: i had the wm6 underground with no prob like this one...
thanks in advance!

Hi, I had a problem with synching the calendar entries when first using this ROM, it was resolved by going into settings "Clocks & Alarms" then changing the time zone to anything other than what it is already set on and then changing back to the setting you want. Hope it works.

well, i did it and...it worked!
here it goes how i did it:
- in clocks, puted the "home and visiting" with the same date (i dont know if this matters)
- changed the "home" date to some other gmt and closed clock settings
- entered clock and changed back to the real gmt setting.
- sync as i wanted!
edde: thanks for the help!

Time changes on Wizard when I connect with activesync 4.5

time on device changes back an hour when connecting to Active Sync 4.5b
>> using Xplore 1.1 WM6 ROM and activesync 4.5b, ticked off 'update date and time' in AS. MS DST patch ok on XP desktop
guest connection is fine but as soon as i create partnership the devices time goes back an hour on every connect.
The horrid thing is I wiped my calendar on exchange! HOW you ask
- all event times were off 1 hour on device
- changed device time manually - no luck
- used sk tools to wipe calendar
- AS sync - wiped calendar from exchange- no PST backup
so i learned that AS is crap and has no setting to let outlook rule etc. and that you have to delete partnership first in this case!
PISSED
update - seems like it's keeping the time on the device now but calendar appts are an hour behind on the device.
I was using WM6 'The Real Thing' rom prior (post DST)and did not have this problem.
fixed. chabnged from 0-5 GMT bogota to -5 GMT eastern US- funny

Time is always WRONG and there is no DST in Brisbane..

Hi all, I got my Touch Pro few days ago, and one thing that bothers me alot is the time is WRONG!
I've set the timezone on my phone as GMT+10 Brisbane where there is no daylight saving apply. However, as soon as I connect the phone to my computer, it automaticlly +1 Hour, It is now displaying GMT+11 time, even if there is DST, it should be GMT+9 rather than GMT+11. Appointments that sync from PC to WM are all +1 hour too, IE if i keep using the wrong time, I'll still be right with appointments... WTF... eg. Current time is 10 and flight is 12, my phone actually displays as Current time is 11 and flight is 1pm! ROFL.
I've tried to install WMDST2008-1.CAB and update my outlook with Outlook Timezone Move.exe and still no sucess on the issue.
Can any one help?
Go into ActiveSync, Tools | Options.
Highlight your PC sync name, click Settings, then untick to sync date and time

Birthday issue (1 day shifted)

Hello everybody,
I have an issue with my HTC Diamond and my contact's birthday date!
On MS Outlook 2003 (french release), birthday is ok (ie : 20 Oct. 79).
On the Diamond, it appears to be shifted 1 day in the past (ie : 19 OCt. 79)
Both PC & PDA are on the same time fuse (GMT+1 Paris), the date is the same, and the time is also the same !
I'm lost and it's driving me crazy... I already saved my contacts on the PC, then delete all of them in Outlook, the sync, and delete the sync parameters in PDA & PC, and import them back, but still not working.
Does someone already had the same problem ?
Regards
Sync time is decided by outlook's time preferences, not by the default cpu clock.
try to change the calendar's time to meet your requirements.
I already checked, and outlook calendar time is matching with both PC and PDA's.
So it seems the problem is not there
Might be a "daylight saving time" setting, not sure where to change it though...
edit; oops, thats only an hour difference, not a day, sorry
a workaround for this can be..
1. open outlook
2. go to tools/options/calendar options/time zone/change calendar time zone
3. change the time zone to fit the delay
this should change all your appointments..
but maybe you should go thru all calendar options over there to see you didn't miss anything

syncronizing problem...please help

this is the problem
Message pops up on wing... I snooze/dismiss it on the wing but I STILL have to do it on the PC...(after I sync it pops up as an outlook reminder)
this happens vice versa as welll.. I'll snooze an item on thee PC and it will still pop up on the wing..
any ideas?
Totally annoying I've searched all over without solid answers... I've reinstalled AS 4.2 without any luck.
guys please help... still having this problem...cant find solutions on the net
What is the message?? Calender reminder?
yes calendar reminder. Example dismissed an item earlier today on the phone...came home synced and now item pops up on my outlook... why wasnt it dismissed?

Ah I know what you mean, it hasn't been dismissed because your phone didn't tell outlook it was dismissed. I have the same at home but I never really cared.
There is an option in active sync where you can tell it what to do in case of a conflict; Replace on phone, replace in outlook, etc. I'm not at home right now so I can't check where it is but i think it's just under options. I'll get back to you tomorrow somewhere in the afternoon.

Not a very suddle bypass
Hay man just got home from work pretty late Nightlife you know.
I don't think it's a bug, Outlook just notifies you again even if you don't like it There is an option to disable calender notification in Outlook, but then there's the chance you'll miss an appointment when you don't have your phone with you, you don't hear it or the battery is dead, etc.
Personally I always have my phone charged and with me, so here it is:
Outlook -> Tools -> Options -> Other -> Advanced Options -> Reminder Options -> Uncheck: Display the reminder.
Hope it'll be to some use for you

DaanJordaan thanks for the try
but doing that wont display reminders on my desktop which i DID NOT snooze on my phone... it's definetly a bug because this never happened to be before... when i would dismiss an item on my phone and sync it wouldnt remind me in outlook....

Actually pretty annoying come to think of it

ActiveSync - ing and getting duplicates
Is it just me or are others frustrated with the "options" provided by active sync? I have for options; 1) replace information on laptop with information on device (and loose all new info on my laptop) 2) replace information on device with infor on laptop (and loose all new info on my device) or 3) combine info on devices (and duplicate all the contacts and calendar).
I am using AS vers 4.5.0. I remember AS 1.?.? I could "syncronize" with syncronization!..the program would update both devices with any information that was new (including changes to contacts and emails) since the last time they were sync'd
Am I missing something or has this program gotten stupid(er)
Thanks

HTC Sense Twitter Tab (HTC Peep)

Hello everyone,
So far I have seen many people having off and on trouble with HTC Peep (Twitter tab in HTC Sense).
I wanted to create this to gather all the information and list a few different fixes that have worked for some people.
Specifically we are getting:
"There was a connection error while attempting to download tweets"
or
Issues actually entering the username and password.
Fixes so far:
Trying on only WiFi/3G (some people have it working on one and not the other)
Hard Reset (but sometimes only works for a couple of 'syncs')
Removing the login information from the registry
Making sure the Location settings are set
Using Dutty's 'Remove My Location' Tool
What have other people tried to get this working?
I found that using Dutty's tool worked, then it only worked on WiFi and now nothing again!

So setting the time correctly... can anyone define this? Syncing time with some server? I mean it's set to be the same as my PC time which syncs to time severs.

just need to adjust the time to the current time..and it will allows u to login without any problem.this way works for me.u can have a try on this.
It's making me mad! I have the latest dutty ROM (for topaz), tryed with other roms. It just says the same: error while connecting or after i login with wi-fi and then try with data connection it says network unavailable.
I installed duttys disable my location feature. Nothing...
Where in the registry are stored the login credetials an other settings? Do you have any idea what to try?
I tried to set up the clock correctly. It is correct (correct after what clock? ). Still nothing...
I found using the new EnergyROM on my Touch Pro2 works great. The Twitter engine was fixed up in the latest versions, works all the time now on 3G and WiFi.
I'm already using the latest version of manila 2.5 (19202525) but it just doesn't work. Did you do anything special? Like enabling my location or something...
I'm getting the same problem here on my HTC Topaz. Peep only connects through Wi-Fi and not through 3G. Is there a solution?
Kind regards,
Sander
I had the same problem.
I went under settings in manila and then Data services. Select the time sync one and turn off the Allow to use network value to update time.
Twitter was working and I turned the above on and twitter stops?
Anyhow the above worked for me. good luck
Background
Is it just me or is the TAB almost useless as the TEXT BOX for writing new PEEPS has black background? And when writing the text is blue so it almost impossible to see what you write....
Does any know of a solution?
I hope anyone can help me with the problems i am having with HTC Peep,
Some of the time it works fine while updating. other times i get a connection error.. but thats not the worst problem. i was wondering if anyone could help me find a register setting or tweak that would set a maximum limit to the amount of tweets in htc peep, the ammount of errors and loading time of the tab seems to increase when the ammount of tweets become more and more. for now the only solution i have found to speed it up again is hard reset and i dont like that if anyone could help me i would be really greatfull!

I've Already Fixed it...
Solved the problem...
Uncheck the Data services of twitter...
and then, check your Date and Time...
i tried to check the date is "My Locations" *i'm not input my city...
after that, i choose 12-Hours Time,Not 24-Hours Time...
i don't know which one the correct one...
but i changes that, after that my HTC PEEP came NORMALLY again....
to those of you who are still getting this error. mine error's where fixed after removing all of the auto disconnect data apps.. like wmlonglife
Have finally ditched Peep in favour of PockeTwit...
Today was the last straw. I had just installed a new Storage Card. Whether the problems with Peep stem from this or this was just coincidental I dont know.
It had been working fine for a month or so, until today.
But this is not the first time Peep has stopped working.
It gives me a combination of error connecting and incorrect username or password consistently.
In the past I was able to get it working by logging in with a new twitter account. Not this time though.
I have also tried:
- deleting all registry account settings for twitter - even deleted the registry keys in desperation and re-imported them.
- renewing the connection database.
- Checking the location and time settings.
All to no avail.
PockeTwit works perfectly - all the time, every time.
So I have removed the Peep Tab from the Sense UI until an update or new ROM comes out fixing the silly thing....
Life is too short to stuff around with this sort of bad programming.
There are too many tabs the sense UI in any case.
HTC Twitter login problem - what worked for me
I have a Sprint Rhodium with WM.6.5. My twitter tab kept giving me an incorrect login info message, even after several soft resets. I changed my password online, removed Twitter home tab, then replaced it after a soft reset. I was then able to login. I was very relieved I didn't have to hard reset or try registry changes.
I hope this works for someone else!
HTC Peep "All Tweets" Tab
Hello all,
I was wondering if anyone has been having the following problem with HTC Peep. IT loads fine, in the first screen I can read all my latest tweets. However, when I want to reply or press "All Tweets" the app goes to the next page and then freezes. This sometimes causes the whole telephone to hang and requires a soft reset. If I'm quick enough, then I can get out of the "All Tweets" screen and recover back to Sense.
Does this sound familiar to anyone? Perhaps I just need to hard reset? Who can give me any handy tips? Thanks in advance!
The solution
Just put your proxyserver off, and Twitter wil work again.
"All Tweets" direct link?
Hi,
I am searching mad for o way to direct link the "All Tweets" button from a shortcut. So far i figured out that "All Tweets" is a manila subpage so the link should look like
"\windows\manila.exe --switchtopage twitter.page.something".
Can someone help me make this work?
I started having a problem with my twitter on my HD2. When i try to update, an error message comes up saying " The account was forbidden to access the twitter server!?". Has anyone had this problem before?
