Hi to all!
I previously used WM2003SE ROM2.06 (the one modified by ZeroExtreme). Then I took the plunge coz I couldn't resist trying out WM2005. The upgrade went fine, but then ActiveSync started acting weird. It synchronizes, but it stays minimized, no matter what I do. When I right-click on the taskbar tray (BTW I'm running WinXP SP2) and click on "open activesync", it opens, but again, stays minimized so I cannot get into the options or tools. I got pissed off so I rreverted back using XdA2JoJo and toenailed's Final version (the exe file). The update went fine. Naturally, I removed a ActiveSync 4 and installed AS 3.8 It was installed fine, and it recognizes my device, but it can't sync. It says connected but when I try opening AS it give me nothing. it doesn't even prompt me for a new partnership. When I cchoose to "explore device" by right-clicking the taskbar icon, it gives me like a communication error and tells me to reset my PPC. I did, but still to no avail. I uninstalled and reinstalled AS3.8 and even AS3.7 - same problem. I searched the forum tried running replog.exe on my Xda2, nothing. Tried deleting everything including manually uninstalling AS by deleting its registry files - same problem. When I install AS4, it synchronizes alright, but again, AS4 won't open, it just stays minimized.
Please help me guys. Thanks in advance!

Activesync Problem
Still the same here. I can't be the only one who has thes same minimized activesync.
No matter what I do i just can;t get it to maximize.
Help please.
Tried uninstalling deleteing registry keys. The only thing ive been able to do is a system restore. and of course i'm left with 3.8
Help
solution !!!
I met exactly the same problem some days ago. The issue resulted from the undeleted DLL files in folder "\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft shared\NoteSync Forms".
You can find a install log file named "wcesetup.log" in the ActiveSync installation folder, in which it reccored everthing copied/replaced during installation. Some DLL were not copied/replaced, due to previous installation.
Just remove the DLL files which were not installed correctly. Then re-install, your problem should by solved.
Hopefully it's helpful.
Sorry for the late update. I solved my problem - I reinstalled windows! Well, apparently I had no choice for I already tried everything I could find in the forums.
installed activesync 4.0 due to curiosity.
failed to sync.
tried to re-install 3.8, but activesync failed to "pop-up" during startup. failed to maximize as well. indicates "Connected" at system tray.
it is such a great thing we have forums and threads like these.
after spending hours of trying to figure out what's wrong, it only just took me a few minutes to read this thread and fix the prob!
deleted files using WCESETUP as reference. some files didnt want to be replaced since they are "version 4.0.4343" and source file is older (from activesync 3.8 ). whew.
Still don't work
U said u deleted some files using 'wcesetup' can u explain yourself. I tried the above deleteing dll in nsync folder. That didn;t work.
Please this just keeps going and going and i need to fix it. And i don;t fancy reloading my machine to complete it
Thanks in advance
ok i can give some info
remove activesync from you pc
remove the XDA from the cradle
and use taskman to stop wcesmgr.exe and wcescomm.exe
go to control panel and remove activesync
restart pc
go to program files\microsoft activesync and delete all fire there or (if you have pocket pc apps instaled from the desktop backup it cos all cabs are there)
then if your xda as BUZmobile 2005 you MUST use activesync4
else activesync 3
dont use any type of anti-virus/firewall when using activesync4 cos it will prevent a good connection
after that install it again
for activesync4 is better to have outlookXP (outlook2003) and open it i did have some problems sync notes with it closed
well post what appened
Guys, I have a new problem now. I flashed my Xda to WM2005 again, using Buzz's ver. 1.6a
Activesync 4 (build 4343) installed fine but now, when I conect my Xda2, AS opens alright, but it doesn't prompt for a new partnership. Intead, the icon keeps on spinning and then I get an error on my device: "Unable to obtain a server-assigned IP address. Try again later or enter an IP address in Network settings." Please help...
I somehow made it sync! But now I'm back to the same problem in the first post! Now ActiveSync stays minimized and I cannot get it maximized! Please...
Try to disable windows firewall ... solved my activesync (via usb) problem

Hi.
I have a serious probelm
When ever I try to install anything to my SD Card through Active Sync, I just end up getting the .CAB file for the install file and whenever I click on it, it installs the program to the Main Storage memory :!:
What I do is this...
I connect my XDAIIi up with my computer and use active sync to sync them both. I just then click on any of the programs that I want to install, and it asks do you want to install blah blah to the default directory (or something like that) I click NO and choose my Storage Card. It then does the above :?
PLEASE could someone help.
I am using an XDAIIi with Active Sync 4. Up until now I have had no problems. I tred downgrading to Active Sync 3.8 but that still did not work.
Am I doing something stupidly wrong???????!!!!!!!
PLEASEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE HELP!!!!!!
PLEASE!!!!!!
I would greatly appreicate a reply as soon as posible.
Thankyou loads in advance,
Regards,
lydiachris
GURU'S NEEDED!!!
Please does anyone know?? There must be XDAIIi guru's out there somewhere!!!
Ohh..... how I wish I were one :roll:
did you try cabinst to install programs from your device to the storage card instead of using MS active sync......... ??
Ah Ha!!! Well done Just got that to work, I was trying to install Visual-IT London maps etc and I think they actually get extracted automatically to .CAB files, I have tried the bacIstall software and it works a treat Thankyou very much.
Cheers.
WHY on earth are these things ever simple?!?! :roll:
Hi,
Suddenly i can't install programs tru active sync anymore.
It worked until yesterday i wanna install a program but i didn't apear on my vario.
Try it for some times but it would not work.
Today i want to install another program this would also not install on my vario.
What is the problem?? does anyone know.
Grtz
Did Activesync stop synching before that ? Or did it crash during some install ? I had this too, my programs list on my wizard went empty, couldnt install/deinstall/synchronise anymore. Reinstall of ActiveSync did not work so I was forced to hard-reset my device in able to work with it again .... thanks ms activesync ...
Hi All,
Good Evening.
Do you guys know how can I restore Activesync on my Universal. I accidentally deleted the Activesync icon on the programs using total commander. Now it doesn't sync up anymore with my PC.
Is there any registry setting in the Universal that I can clean up or files that I can delete in order to install a new copy of activesync.
Or any steps that I need to follow to get it synched up again.
Please help.
I ended up using the clear storage button in the programs. Now it is in sync all I have to do is re-install the other softwares that I previously have.
Hello.
I seem to have made a "cleanup" of the Universal file in main storage (by only removing some today items not needed, and I think I removed a file inside WMDRM folder or something.
Anyway, since that day for some reason, my Universal connects to Activesync through USB but it Doesn't synchronize. I get a message on Activesync stating that sync cannot be made.
Also, I cannot install cab files moved Directly to my device. e.g. I have a file on storage card, run is, and get an "unsuccessful" message directly.
From the beginning, I couldn't uninstall any applications (with the 1.90.94 Aku3 rom...) and I could only do it from Activesync Install/Uninstall. Although the files apear in windows/installs (or something) folder, they are not shown on the device's add/remove programs function.
I don't care about uninstalling, but Installing and using Activesync is top priority. Any clues on how to solve it without a Hard Reset?
Thanks...
