Anyone know where the Device Type is kept for HTC's Exchange stuff?
Currently it sends my device over to the Active Exchange network as "HTCHero" I'd prefer if it did not do this. I'd like it to present itself as a more secure device like... 'iPhone'
Right now I'm using TouchDown Pro and it will do this for me... and for the most part I like touchdown except that it's horribly ugly. I'd like the ability to use the phone's exchange integration again if I felt like going back.
Not sure if your Hero is rooted yet, but if it is, someone could probably baksmali/smali the .apk and change the activesync device string it returns.
I can't get mine to even link up with my gmail account.
You know what you are suppose to put when it asks you for the domain and server info?
With out starting a new thread here, and on the topic of exchage. Does anyone know how to remove an email from the device and not the server?? My blackberry gave me the option. Maybe a "Download a Copy" setting?
I have this posted in 3 other forums and no one is responding.
HTC support's response to Froyo & Exchange ActiveSync "Sync protocol error"
So after moving from HTC Hero to Desire Z, I started getting "Sync Protocol Error" after the initial sync with Exchange 2010.
Many threads on this site and on many others sites exist about this issue, a lot of them having a workaround in the shape of removing and re-adding the account, but absolutely nothing worked for me. until I ran into this one and gave it a try:
- I can't posts links..."
I implemented this solution successfully and I now have ActiveSync work perfectly on my device. so wanted this thread to stand out from the dozens of threads on many forums so people can find the solution to this very annoying problem easily.
This is the solution from the original poster and all credit goes to him:
"Have your Exchange admin use the Microsoft mobile admin tool to delete the partnership for the device. Once done, the next sync will succeed."
When trying to implement this solution on Exchange 2010, we found that the "Mobile Admin Tool" is already built into the Exchange Management Console, and these are the steps that you need to take in order to remove the partnership on 2010:
1. Open Exchange Management Console
2. Go to Recepient configuration
3. Right click on user and choose "Manage Mobile Phone"
4. At this stage my username had 3 different phones which Exchange identifies according to User Agent. the Desire Z was named HTC Vision.
5. We removed all the phones by choosing "Remove Mobile Phone Partnership" and choosing finish. you have to repeat this step for all phones because the dialog box actually closes without letting you delete all partnerships.
I'm not a big Exchange expert, but if you have a version prior to 2010 running on your Exchange server you might need to use "Microsoft Exchange Server ActiveSync Web Administration Tool":
- I can't post links..."
Anyway doesn't matter which version or tool you are using, removing the partnership is the golden solution.
No problems with syncing after that is done. many thanks to tscalzott from the HTC forums.
Oh cr*p... again this worked for a couple of days and stopped working.
I'm attacking this problem both with HTC email support and phone support.
Email support, after a few useless tips (factory reset etc') sent me the following:
"With regards to your inquiry,
Kindly note that this issue is escalated to a higher level to be investigated and we will be replying to you shortly the moment we get the update."
I have a feeling that I will not hear from them in the upcoming weeks or ever.
With phone support, they actually told me that I need to download the certificate from the OWA site and install it on the phone. they said they will send me instructions via email on the installation part because the support personnel probably had no idea how to do that. I also tried without any luck - I could find some tips on how to install WPA certificates but not the CET certificate that you can download from Exchange OWA.
After first call - didn't receive any email.
Called again asking for them to resend the email - still didn't receive anything.
Just got off the phone from the third call - the support agent made some more checks and said that there was probably a mistake with the first agent I talked to - as there is no need to install a certificate on the phone in order to work with Exchange ActiveSync on the phone.
He did however said, much like the email I got, that this issue is being escalated internally and at some point in time, information about a solution will be posted online at the HTC site.
If any of the many people having this problems are seeing this thread, please go ahead and send your case at h t t p : / / w w w . h t c .com/uk/CS_Mail.aspx or any other country in hopes that they will understand that there's a serious issue going on as they receive more complaints. I tried telling him to try and escalate the fact that although many people are not calling in (simply given up or using touchdown application instead), the escalation point should definitely just google the problem and see how many users are suffering from it. I do however understand that HTC's policy might be to only handle issues that are being reported to them, and not issues that are discussed on the web as they have no control over those users' actions.
Now we wait hoping for the best...
Any progress on this? I have a HD2 with the Desire Z NAND build on it. Love it for everythinggggg except that my exchange account doesnt sync calendar :'(
So.. I used my windows live account for my phone... and for some reason it detected it as if I lived in the USA... So now I can't add my bank card to my account and I can't buy applications.
I created a new account to set my country to Mexico (I already did this in zune.net). The problem now is that I would like to change the main account from my phone so I can buy applications without having to reset my phone.
I have an LG Quantum, so I can access the registry editor using the MFG app.
Anyone knows how to do this?

Thanks a lot man! =)
What is the difference between the email and the user?
Do you know if it is possible to change to use a messenger account for messaging that is different from the main account?
lol ... after actually trying this out... it didn't work and it screwed my accounts xD
it is good I remembered the original value for those fields so maybe I can fix it =)
The fields seem to have an id instead of the email of the account... maybe this would work if I could get the id from my other account :O
Hey, tenhotshot, first, when you do copy/paste, you must provide link to the original post, i.e. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1335240
Second, when you trying to answer on question what you have no idea what is the question for, please do not answer. I already told in my post - it's about changing email assigned to the primary Live acount, not a whole account...

Check my thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1335240 , I just added some important info (and of course tested on my handset - I'm able to use Marketplace, Games and Hotmail with new id!
P.S. Probably we need to add this hack to FAQ...

Awesome! I'm guessing I have to add the new account to the accounts list first?
And also... Do I have to do those 3 changes, or just the last one?
So.... it didn't work for me... again xD
Now I can't config contacts nor accounts... and I can't access my email...
It really sucks how microsoft restricts your account to only one country... u__u
I'll probably get a cheap used phone to try this kind of things first hehehe =P
Hmm, it's really strange, because I just did it and everything works fine. What phone do you have and how do you change the registry (registry editor, provisioning)?
Also, as I mentioned before, I changed the LiveID user name i.e. email account name, not a whole account (may be it's a reason?). Sorry, I don't know the difference and how it affects on WP7 settings.
First, I've changed email at the first two registry entries and was able to get new email (my old email associated with Live account, was blocked by damn stupid Verizon - after 10 years - still can't believe). Yesterday I found what Marketplace and game hub stop working, and asking for password with old email (LiveID?). So, I found the third entry and now all Live-services working fine, including Zune. It's 100% true.

I'm using an LG quantum and I edit the registry through the MFG application (it has a registry editor)
I actually wanted to be able to change my main account because for some reason the account I normally use for messenger is identified as being from the USA, so I can't use it to buy. So I created another account and set it to Mexico (my country) , so now I can buy apps from the market place...
The problem is now I have to re add all my friends to my new messenger account... x___x
So if I could change accounts, I could switch my account whenever I needed to buy something and then change it back to be able to send messages.
=)
For now I think I'll just start adding my contacts to the new account.
Hello all,
I'm currently running bruce's CM10 (awesome rom by the way!) and I was wondering if anyone could point me to any advice/apps that could help me with my issue.
I'm setting up exchange on jellybean and one of the main requirements of the university is to setup a 6digit pin after the email is setup through android. On ICS and gingerbread, it would usually prompt me to create the pin after I make the account and allow me to access my email. However, it's not allowing me/prompting me to setup a PIN after I setup the email account on my android device. As of now, anytime I create the account, it gets stuck at syncing my email (meaning nothing is actually showing up in the email apk).
I looked up a few threads and even downloaded a flashable file on the nexus forums that was compatible with CM10 that bypasses this issue of creating security on the phone when setting up an exchange account, nevertheless it didn't work and i'm still presented with the same problem. The link I used was here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1749921
^hopefully the above thread can elaborate more on my problem as it completely describes the issues i'm running into
So with that, has any one found any workarounds or what not?
Appreciate the help!
Greetings folks,
I want to use to Native Email App which came with N5, KK (4.4.2). After the update to 4.4.2, I was able to configure my Official Email account using SSL certificates. But I am still not able to -
1. Search the emails
2. Auto Sync my sub folders. I have to enter them and swipe it down to sync it. No auto email notification like inbox.
I am using TouchDown the free version. It is expensive to buy a license, plus it is not well integrated with ROM.
I rooted and installed KangKat and then Carbon, thinking probably it may work in any of them. It did not.
What do you recommend. I have checked with other fellows in the team, they say the Native App sucks, and it does not have search capability, some of them shifted Galaxy-4. I could not find any touchwiz ROM, or for what matter any any HTC Rom. I am sure their email app are better than Native Exchange Email App by Google.
Please recommend I need to -
1. an Email Client which is able to do two authentication. I mean in which i shall be able to import my certificate before i connect to the exchange/mail server.
2. be able to search my email
3. Sync my Calendar
4. Sync my sub folder.
Another good to have feature, probably i will spend time later figure out how to change the ROM, so that when i install SSL certificates for phone, it does not by default enforce security and i have to put a lock-pin (such a time waster).
Thank you fellows.
Thanks
Vivek Sharma
