Hello,
I use the free Pushmail service from mail2web since a while now and now I am going to get a second PPC device.
Can I connect to mail2web LIVE with both devices at the same time? I would be cool, if I entry a task on device 1 and seconds later it is also on device 2
I don't know about doing it at the exact same time, but I have both my Tilt and Treo 750 syncing to the same account. So basically when I switch my sim to the other phone the next time it synchs it picks up the changes I made with the first phone. Although if I remember correctly I had to do a reg hack to make this work but I can't remember what it was.
I am going to use a dual sim card to do this. Maybe this could be a problem
This is driving me crazy now because I can't find the hack. I'm not sure how a dual sim will impact it, but I don't think that should be a problem. Basically, the way I understand it, for an exchange server source sync you are only allowed one connection standard. So I had my mail2web set up on my Tilt. I bought a 750 for one and set it up exactly the same way but the sync would never complete. I did some searching and found that there was a registry hack I did on my 750 to allow it to sync. And since then it has worked perfectly. Like I said, I make a change on my Tilt, calendar, contact or whatever. The next time I throw my sim in my 750 and it syncs up the change are automatically reflected. I guess you might have issues with two devices only if they are trying to sync at the exact same time. I guess that could be a concern. But this has worked perfectly for me with mail2web.
Ok, found it. I also understand that this change needs to be made if you want to have two server sync connections, but I'm not sure about that. Also, I only made this change on the second device that I set up for the mail2web sync. Let me know if it works out for you:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\ActiveSync\EnableNonLocalCrossPollination]
= (DWORD) 1
This key will most probably be there already, but if it is, its value
will be 0. If so, change it to 1.
Thank you a lot
I will try this, as soon as my second device is here

Hi, before I get into my problem let me tell you what I have done so far. I used the great tutorial on here for flashing to WM6. I installed the 2 cabs ran them use shell tool and flashed to Crossbow 1.7 Final. Performed a hard reset. Everything is great! Now I have SunCom and never put on a radio rom etc or anything like this. I setup my GPRS works great. Email works great everything again works great. If I try to goto my comm manager and enable direct push though I get no options it's greyed out. Also I screwed up last night and disabled my Data in comm manager. Couldn't figure out how to turn it back on ended up doing a hard reset . Anyway all these posts are so helpful but I could not find one related to my problem. I am thinking it is because I didn't put a radio rom on I'm not sure that's why i'm turning to you guys. Also the phone is a G4 is this help?
Thanks in advance.
you'll need to configure a server in activesync first. and for that you need to have an ccount with a provider that runs exchange server 2003 sp2. if you choose "as items arrive" as your sync frequency, you have direct push mail.
Ahh thank you. I thought (And could definatly be wrong!) That on WM5 I could select it with just a pop3 account. Am I mistaking? Thanks for the quick reply as well.
nope, you need to have some sort of push email service subscription.. either through work (exchange server, etc.) or something like blackberry connect, 7, etc.
Thanks for the information. I guess I need to do some research into the blackberry app if it works for our phone. Was sure I saw the program on the FTP here. I'm sure I will need to subscribe for there services though. Unfortunatly the company I work for isn't that big and I don't have to resources to build a server just for exchange. Not to mention how big of a pain it would be to set everyone up as well, and downtime I shutter thinking about it .
mail2web offer a push service. it works well too. i used it for a while till i got my office server configured for the job.
But there still is an issue with direct push, at least for me. Before I flashed to WM6 my email would arrive on my 8125 before or at the same time as they would come to my inbox on my PC. After installing Crossbow WM6 the email comes as much as 10 minutes after it hits my inbox on the PC.
seems like you are just synching your phone every 15 mins or so. Do you have exchange server with direct push?

As I have stated before going to WM6 direct push would receive the emails few seconds before my PC did, and yes I have it enabled right now and I have selected to receive items as they arrive.
Have a Kaiser not TILT which out of the box had no issue calendar syncing via Exchange directly along w/ emails and contacts.
I am on the AT&T network as well.
Upgraded ROM to Schap's newest and calendar wouldn't sync
Upgraded to Dutty's Touch WWE as well and calendar wouldn't sync
My radio is the standard from Kaiser 1.27.12.11
ANY AND ALL HELP WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED>>>
PLEASE HELP!!!

Just curious....
Are you syncing directly with Exchange via push-type activesync? Or syncing with your local calendar on your PC with activesync?
I am going direct to Exchange. For my company, I had to add Server Source in Activesync (after adding my company's security certificate), and enter in all the relevant info (server name, secure connection or not, username/password, etc).
Not sure if that sheds any light....good luck.

I am doing it directly to Exchange...we don't use certficates and it works on my hermes with no problem and with custom ROMS...yet once I began using custom ROMS on my Kaiser it stopped syncing ONLY my calendar items...I just deleted the partnership directly on the phone just now and re-added it back, but to no avail...problem still exists...during the initial sync Active Sync on the phone even says syncing 200 calendar items, yet the calendar shows nothing...
HELP!!!!
When you look in activesync on your phone does it give any error code etc? I have heard of issues with corrupt appointments giving off errors when syncing. Any error will stop the sync of that piece of outlook. IE email gets and error email won't sync, but calendar will etc etc...

Unfortunately no error codes at all it as if it works perfectly...yet when looking at your calendar, nothing is there...i am miffed and pissed at the same time therefore miff-pissed
I guess for the sake of narrowing down the issue, you could re-flash the original Kaiser ROM. The link is posted here somewhere.
I don't know what could be going on. I have the Tilt. I have flashed several ROMs (all based on ATT ROM though), and never had any issues.
Best of luck.
i know this sounds strange but did you flash another radio when you flashed the new ROM's?
Reason being, on my Hermes certain Radio's made my Exchange syncing go crazy. Flashing a different radio version solve my problem. Might be worth a try if you havent?
This may sound stupid, but have you verified the date on your phone? Maybe you are accidently 1 year early, so it is syncing your appts but you are looking for them a year from now or whatever. I did this once and it drove me crazy.
Thank you both for your comments/suggestions...the date is correct as I have verified it...as for the radio, I did NOT upgrade the radio from the original that came with the device...even on my hermes I never ever had this type of issue...guess I will try looking at a different radio and seeing if I should flash that..problem is that most people who have the HTC radio .11 say that there is no benefit to upgrading the radio at all. I am beyond miffed!!!
Just upgraded the radio to .17; deleted partnership on the PC and the Kaiser, soft reset device; added partnership back and sync'd...STILL NO CALENDAR!!!! UGGH!!!!! PLEASE HELP!!!

What operating system are you using? Vista WMDC v6.1 or MS Active Sync v4.5? If you're using Vista you may need to update WMDC to v6.1 and if WinXP you may need to update to Active Sync v4.5. If that is done, please delete and recreate your partnership again...sorry, then under File > Connections menu please select option that says "This computer is connected to" and choose [The Internet]. This is basically part of the process for "How to: Connect to Internet via 2 different proxy settings (1 for GPRS and 1 for Wifi/ActiveSync) and somehow it works for me...maybe as a fluke of luck... Establish a cable connection and sync...takes a bit of time...Please PM me for the documentation if you're interested.
I'm having a similar problem but email won't sync on mine where Calendar does.
I'm using a fresh O2 Stellar (no mods) & Vista WMDC 6.1.6965
Calendar syncs over the air without issue.
My previous O2 mini-s worked flawlessly as do others in my company.
No errors are reported by activesync and it thinks everything is wonderful.
Any tips? It's immensley annoying.
I am using Vista along with the most recent version of WMDC 6.1xxx; i have deleted and recreated the partnerships so many times...no matter what ROM i use it only syncs my contacts and emails...never the calendar..gonna try 1 more time now..I just don't understand this...even w/ my Hermes I never had this issue.
Stranger still...
In my case I can sync everything except appointments created on my device. They just never sync.
Same Problem with user in my company...
I am part of the IT group in my company and 1 of our users are experiencing the same issue.
Good News: Its not your phone. I've tested the users email on multiple phones and receives same result.
Ban News: Still haven't pin pointed the issue
Try running ScanPST.exe on your pc... Maybe something corrupt in your outlook calendar causing the problem.
Calendar appointments created on my device are the only things that won't sync for me. First noticed it when ActiveSync drained my battery in about an hour and a half from attempting and re-attempting to sync to exchange server. I have not installed any new programs, changed any configuration settings, or updated ROM recently to cause this.

Had this problem awhile ago, and switched ROMS and it went away. Back again. ran the scanpst on all psts and ost, deleted partnesrhips and no go. Really annoying.
See this thread as well. I started it awhile ago and it never had a firm resolution.

I have had the same problem on a few ROMs as well as the one I’m on now. One thing to note is I also noticed a contact added to the device would not sync as well. Anyway it's a bad work around but I found something and it will get ALL of your stuff to sync. I found it on another site's forums (sorry cvan remember which one) when I could not find anything about it here other than people mentioning they had the same problem but no solution.
1. Change your Time Zone to a NON-DST time zone (I’ve used GMT-4:30 Caracas) and save the setting.
2. Click ‘Yes” to saving changes to the clock setting.
3. Manually hit Sync in ActiveSync on your device and let it go over your cellular line (sorry haven’t tried it hooked a PC)
4. Once completed change back to your original Time Zone, sync again, and all should be well.
I have to do this EVERY time I add a new appointment to the device directly. I hope this help and I’m REALLY hoping one of you guys can figure this one out and come up with a fix.

no success for me . . . .
I have HTC Fuze I purchase two weeks ago and having problems with Activesync.
I've installed the software and hook the usb to the computer and it sync just fine.
The next day I tried to sync, it didn't reconize my profile from previous day and made me do another one.
It worked for a couple days, now it says I have two profiles on the device and I need to delete one to sync.
Why is the Activesync not recognizing the very first one I did?
I'm assuming you are getting an error code. It would help if you could tell us the specific code #. It would narrow it down.
Also, are you using Activesync 4.5? Which would be the most recent. My last question is, which Windows Mobile are you using? If you are using WM 6.1 it has a bug which causes problems with Activesync, if you have more than 100 of any category of item that is being synced. Contacts, appointments, notes, etc.
One possibility for why it didn't recognize your profile, have you made any significant changes in your phone during this time?
When you delete one of the profiles, make sure you not only delete the profile on your PC, make sure you delete the extra profile(s) on the activesync on your phone.
I'm not getting an error code, I get the "welcome to Pocket PC Wizard" and it wants me to set the device up all over again.
I am using ActiveSync 4.5 and WM 6.1.
When it sync, I have 54 contacts and 28 calendar events, so it didn't reach the 100 you were talking about.
I did delete everything from the device and PC last night when I set the lastest profile up.
I just plug the USB to the device again today and it pop open the "Welcome to Pocket PC Wizard". I just set everything up last night.
I guess until they fix the bug, I will always have to do this.
Hi all, I'm fairly experienced with the WM world (been using since WM2002) and am usually able to fix plenty of people's problems (on here and in the real world). I have run into an issue that I haven't quite been able to figure out. If it were my phone, I'd probably reflash a different rom on it (or even same one) and try it again fresh, but since it is not my phone I haven't tried it yet. Anyways, here is the issue.
My coworker has configured his phone running his provider's stock WM6.1 standard rom. He (well me, he had no idea it was possible until I showed him) is trying to connect his phone to the company's exchange server to get email on the phone. I have configured this (or instructed how to do this) for over 25 people where I work, and the only issues that I have ever run into were certificate issues. I manually pulled down the root certificate, made a cab file containing it, and installed it on his phone. This is easily verified by accessing the company's OWA site from Pocket IE. Without the certificate installed, a certificate warning appears, and with it you access without a problem (which I can do). So certificate, checked.
Now after a soft reset, it comes time to configure it. I get the email address, password, and domain in without a problem. Then the OWA address is put into the server address. Then the specific mail and calendar items are configured (such as retain last 3 days of mail, download 50KB of each message, show last 2 weeks of calendar, etc.), and finish is hit. The device successfully syncs, with no errors appearing on the screen. I even see items come down in activesync (such as syncing 82 contacts, 5 calendar events, and some emails).
I opened pocket outlook, and his inbox is empty. Odd, so I send him a test email from my AT&T Tilt (cooked WM 6.1 rom), and it arrives to his device on the next send/receive. Then, I hit send receive again on his phone and the test email disappears. I have tried changing the "retain" option for email from last 3 days to last 2 weeks, and no difference. Also the Calendar is empty. I sent him a meeting request and he accepted it, but it isn't on his mobile phone's calendar (but it is on the exchange calendar).
The only thing that I could think of is a rule to move everything to his personal folder on his laptop, but he says that he doesn't have one and moves everything over by hand. I'm thinking about swinging by his desk and confirming, but he isn't dumb and I'm sure he isn't lying about it.
I have been searching google (here and full internet google) without much luck. Thanks for any ideas to try, or else I'm gonna go soft reset his phone
Jason
Well he did tell me when he closed outlook on his work PC, everything started working right. I might try to swing by and look at his outlook afterall.
Jason
btw, if your poutlook syncs only new mails, and your server is configured to not keep messages on the server, the message might be deleted every other send/receive.
Phone not syncing hotmail as items arrive.
I just changed my LG Optimus 7 for a Nokia Lumia 800 and Hotmail is not syncing Hotmail as items arrive even when it is configured to do so in the Windows Live configuration tab.
At the bottom of the Windows Live Configuration tab there is an option called register that is deactivated by default but I cannot find any information of what it does.
Any idea about what it does (register) or what might be my problem with hotmail?
Thanks,
Does it at least sync them automatically at some point? Or is the auto-sync broken entirely?
Obviously, automatic sync requires data connectivity, but it also goes through some different network connections than the web interface. I've seen files arrive on my PC both before and after they arrive on the phone, even when both are set to automatic sync as items arrive. The difference is usually only a few seconds though, rarely anywhere near a minute.
They often arrive several minutes after I should have received them (max 2 hours). I think that the problem might be with Hotmail itself, today I read something about people reporting issues with hotmail at wmpowerusers.
Also during lunch I went back to the LG Optimus 7 and it does have the same issue when it was working fine until I made the switch during the weekend.
Another thing that I tried with initial success was to disable the wifi and started to work for a couple of hours, now is the same as before.
Hopefully it’ll be the Hotmail issue and will be temporal. I use mail instead of SMS and it cost me a lot to get friends jump from SMS to email.
Well, it is working fine today. I think that it was a temporal problem.
