WM6 and ActiveSync scheduling

Has anyone experienced weird ActiveSync behavior since upgrading? I sync with my work's exchange server and in WM5 I had no problems setting up a schedule and the Treo would stick to it, never trying to sync at other times. Now, even though I set it to sync at 30 minute intervals, it syncs on its own at random times (it tried about 50 times yesterday). It seems to totally ignore the settings within the phone. This is killing my battery time, I used to get about 3 days in WM5, but now only get about a day. I've tried resetting (hard and soft) a dozen times, setting it to manually sync, looked at the task manager and disabled repllog.exe, but it keeps syncing at will. I've noticed in the logs, on a scheduled sync it will say "type=scheduled", but all the other times it says "type=interactive". I never looked at the logs in WM5 because it worked like I told it to. Any suggestions, registry hacks to make it sync only on my schedule? Thanks in advance. BTW, I did scour the web for answers before posting, maybe I missed something.

OK, more info. I have gotten it to sync on schedule twice. If I fire up a task manager and look at the repllog.exe instances, on a good sync I will have 4 intances (three with AppRunAfter arguments which I understand are normal) and one with a /sched /remote /h argument which has the correct scheduled time to sync. On those occassions when it syncs at will, the task manager will show as many as 7 repllog.exe instances, with those above the normal 4 showing /remote /h /all arguments with various times before the next scheduled sync. Confusing? YES...Any takers?

Last post. It seems to be working now, I did have HandySwitcher running and set to close ActiveSync on disconnect. I turned that off and it has synced successfully for six 30 minute intervals. Thanks to all who may have been trying to troubleshoot. Still not convinced HandySwithcer was the culprit...but...

Active sync issue (change made on server require re-sync)

Heya, This is my first winmo device (HTC Raphael [aka HTC Fuze for At&T]) ever and I'm having an abominably annoying time with active sync for wm6.1
every once in a while when I plug my phone in for syncing, I get this error that says:
Result:
There has been a change made on your server that requires you to re-synchronize all items on your device. Please perform a manual sync.
Support Code: 0x80883001
Last synchronized:

I don't know what in the hell is wrong with active sync, but I do know that everytime it does this re-synchronization, I end up having to re-add all my contacts on the People tab on my TF3D interface AND I lose all the custom ring tone assignments for everyone. Is there a way I can make this stop. It's obscenely annoying and I hate active sync with a passion of a million burning suns.

help please?

The only times I've seen this message or a similar one, is when I try to sync with my laptop when I travel and it has a different time than my phone. For example, my laptop is one hour behind the phone time or the other way arround. Fixing the time settings has solved this for me in the past. Though I don't know how would this impact your contacts...
PS,
I hate it too...

The odd thing is, it happens very randomly and I have no idea why the change is there and why it screws with tf3d's favorite ppl tab and assigned ringtones, but it's annoying as all hell.

do you sync outlook calendar items?

I believe I do. I'll try changing something on the computer then sync it and see if the message comes up. otherwise I'll do the opposite and see if that's the issue.

I found out that after adding an event into my calendar via the fuze, active sync will display the above mentioned message and proceed to erase all my contacts in the "People" tab as well as all ringtones associated to all the callers on my contact list.

Help please?

Who do I have to make love to here to get some help?
p.s I'm a very kinky person irl

lol. we're trying to help everyone...
alright, which operating system are you using?
(are you female?)

I'm using Windows Vista
(I can be any gender you like, I don't do S&M though)XD

HELLO
HELLo
HELlo

Hello

Here is some more info for you. Says something creating outlook subfolders on the desktop w/o syncing first. Anyway, seems like this is the problem you are describing.
http://social.microsoft.com/Forums/.../thread/161c69c7-eba5-4909-8b2d-0212b5309c41/

I was actually browsing that exact thread. The problem is that I haven't made any folders under outlook. The only thing I did was to add an event into the calendar. Suppose I have an appointment next week say, Monday February 2nd. I go to my fuze and set the appointment via the calenda soft tab. From there, I later sync the fuze to my computer (Vista) and then the error message comes up.
Any attempts to delete the partnership and then recreate a new one will simply just erase all the people I have under the "Peoples" tab on my TF3d Interface. I'd also like to note that all the ringtones that I have assigned for specific contacts also get erased.

honestly, i can't think of anything...
I'd hard reset if i were you
and if you're using vista, you should try to use WMDC 6.1 instead of activesync

WMDC? is it an alternative to syncing?
Sorry, This is indeed my first windows mobile phone so I have very little grasp on various WM softwares and such.

That microsoft forum thread mentions some suggestions to compact your Outlook pst file and check it for errors. If you are syncing to an Outlook pst file, then I would disable the cache mode option in Outlook, make a backup of the pst file, check it for error / repair and compact it to see if that helps.

hihi...lol
i have this error...

:-(

If it was my type of problem as in everything gets wiped out and replaced back in (therefore screwing up the tf3d peoples tab.. then I found the answer..
when sync your phone, you are asked what to do if there are conflicts. I misread it and chose replace on device... It should be replace on desktop. Basically I told it that if there was a conflict, to replace everything on my device rather than on my desktop.. now that I changed that, i haven't had that problem.. at all.

Activsync problems

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.

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

DST Problems

Hope someone can help me with this. Since my phone has had the DST time change applied all my appointments are reported as an hour earlier on the phone than they are in Google or Outlook. I've searched everywhere, applied the MS DST updates (although I'm using the Ookba 6.5 ROM for my Snap) and nothing helps.
If I put the appointment in at the correct time on the phone it's an hour late in Google or Outlook, if I enter the appointment in Google or Outlook it's an hour early on the phone.
This is pretty frustrating, any ideas out there?
Thanks,
Mark.

Sorted!
Not sure what I did, but restarted the phone, had to change the time zone from Fiji time to NZ time(!!) and the appointments are now in sync.
Hmmm.
Mark.
