When I ActiveSync, I notice my laptop shows that it is trying to make a network connection...then stops trying. A minute later, my K-Jam says it was unable to make a network connection. The strange part is that I haven't setup anything to make a network connection. Any thoughts?
Thanks,
Tom
Upgrade to 4.1
I read somewhere that the Wizard does not sync properly witch any ActiveSync versions before 4.1 (which is not officially out yet).
Check here for info and download: http://en.pdamobiz.com/en/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=375
activesync 4.x does use ip addresses, if you check this link and then the link in it, you will get some answeres & hopefully all your problems will be solved.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=32022
I'll check out the link....thanks!!! I have 4.1 installed since I got my K-Jam. I rarely ever used it with my PDA2K, but I have to install programs...damn those exe's...why can't everyone just use CAB files.
Thanks,
Tom
situation that can arise with cab files is they self destruct/delete after the install is completed,
unless you change the attributes to read only

I just tried installing this on my flashed-to-new-imate-jamin-rom dopod but it doesn't install, so i'm assuming it checks for ROM versions prior to installation. anyone have the same problem as i do? maybe the new imate rom already addresses this issue.
I have the same problem. Mine (818 Pro) was also flash to latest Jamin rom recently.

Strange?? I went to member download but only sees manual. Any idea where do I find it?
disappointed
I screamed in joy when I saw the USB Sync patch but only ended up crying in tears after installing it. I am still faced with the "need to soft-reset after 1st ActiveSync" problem. :roll:
Anyone has this problem solved???

Agreed... But the USB Switch is still useful, cause now syncing is instantanous, although I repair the ActiveStync instead of soft reset, cause even a Hard Reset doesn't work...
Hi,
I've got an Orange M500, upgraded with the Imate ROM 1.12.00WWE - ever since I upgraded the ROM, I can connect to my Orange GPRS service fine, however, if I disconnect then try to reconnect again, the connection fails. I have to turn on flight mode, then turn on the radio again in order to get GPRS access.
I've tried upgrading to Radio 1.13.00, but still no joy.
Any ideas?
Mine does that and I have the original ROM. A bit of a pain isn't it.
Here's the fix
This was originally posted by Peter for the imate JAM.
I just installed it and it's working like a charm.
1. Download the older version of caller-id from:
ftp://xda:[email protected]/BlueAngel/CAB_Files/Caller ID/IA_CallerID_1.20_WWE.CAB
and transfer it over to your device. Any directory is Ok. I used ActiveSync to put it into the My Documents folder.
2. Remove the file IA_CD-Startup.exe from \Windows\Startup on your device.
3. Rename iacontacts.dll to something else (e.g. old-iacontacts.dll). This file is in the \Windows directory of your device but is hidden. However you can rename it using your PC. Open Windows explorer, and navigate to Mobile Device>My PocketPC>Windows.
4. Rename displayCID.dll to something else (e.g. old-displayCID.dll). Access it via your PC the same as for the previous step.
5. Soft reset
6. Run the CAB file on the device - just tap on it.
7. Soft reset.
That should do it.
I have the same GPRS problem too. However, the link you provided just asked for the password to access that ftp. Hey, acs540, do you know the password or do you have that CAB file? Thanks in advance.
usernameassword is xda:xda
The fix in this post seems to refer to caller id!?! I too get the gprs connection problem and have made it better with different roms but not found a sure-fire fix.
If anyone has a patch that fixes this, please post it!
GPRS now working
Hi,
Finally I tried, or at least halfway, After I removed the CallerID everyone is talking about my Qtek9090 now works flawless regarding GPRS.
This is very interesting that Caller ID software makes GPRS not working
Anyway, now I can start and stop GPRS several times, I have now toggled it 10 times without any problem.
Before I had to reset/toggle radio to make it reconnect after a disconnect.
Thank you all that has investigated this problem!
One last thing, Do you really need CallerID? :roll:

Lars
I don't use Caller_ID, but Photo Contacts Pro.
Did you also try to change GPRS slot (Class 8 or Class 10) in GPRS settings?

i've tried to install AIM... and a webcam program.. both of which install through active sync.. however everytime I try I get the following message on my phone...
"Installation of (whatever).CAB was unsuccessful." and that's about all I get.
Also whenever I connect the phone to my PC is says it's unable to successfully syncronize and asks me to reconnect the device.
MS's support site has been less than helpful... any help you all can give would be greatly appriciated....
Installation problems.....
I am having the same problem too.
Even after a hard reset when I try and install Sprite Backup & Agenda Fusion I keep getting the install error: 'cannot be installed, try another location'
It's driving me up the wall! I would have thought after a hard reset this wouldn't be an issue. I'm now the proud owner of an MDA Pro (Universal) that I can't use because the software I want to install won't install.
Can anyone help me please?
Hi,
Couple of things you might consider / try: -
Establish an activesync connection, then use the "explore" button, navigate to your staorage card, and manually copying the .cab file from your pc to the storage card.
Then on the treo go to file explorer, storage card, and run the cab from the card.
The other thing is to check that you're using activesync 4.1 or later - updates are a free download from MS.
Hope this helps
Angus
Thank you for your suggestions.
Unfortunately i've already tried copying the CAB files straight to the device and launching them produces exactly the same result.
I'm also already using Activesync 4.2 latest version.
Is there anything else I can try?
judging from your sig, you're using a pretty old rom version... I would definitly upgrade it and then give it another go...
Many apologies if a solution to this has already been posted - if it has could someone lead me in the right direction?
My problem is with transfering large files to the Ameo's Microdrive. Activesync is too slow and wont transfer large files. I have tried two different versions of wm5torage, each time installing correctly and soft resetting. I am able to connect to my computer as a mass storage device without a hitch, and all files etc show up. The problem is that when i try to move, say a DivX onto the Microdrive after about 30 seconds I receive the message: "canot copy .....: cannot find the specified file. make sure you specify the correct path and file name"
Please can someone help me with this as it's ever-so-slightly doing my head in.
Many thanks
p.s. if it's any use i've tried this with both wm5 AND 6 with the same disappointing result
wm5torage works like a charge just dl on modaco forum then run it, your pc will see your ameo like a usbstick .

Hi Leon.
What version are you running? Try this one if you're not already running it.
If all else fails...and this is cumbersome, but works everytime....use SafeMode Advanced and use it at boot time...no other drivers will be loaded and no conflicts.. It will def work then. After transferring your files, soft-reset to go back into standard WM5/6.
Let us know how you got on.
When I try with version 1.75 it is unreliable and often produces the error message you see. It may be luck but I've not had problems with 1.73. I disconnect the USB cable first before running, activate the software, then reconnect the cable.
When it does go wrong my Microdrive file table corrupts, also the Ameo hangs on the rainbow-wheel. I soft reset. Once I get it working I get errors if I need to copy the same file again. To fix this, I open WM5torage and run Check Disk on the Microdrive from my PC.
what you need to do is go to settings and the connections tab and turn off the advanced network functionality in "USB to PC". then use WM5torage.
I've tried unchecking "advanced network functionality" but to no avail. I've tried uninstalling activsync, and I've even tried it on a pc which has NEVER had Activsync on it - all with the same disappointing result.
Invariably WM5torage crashes and is 'unkillable' (if that's a word!) via Running Programs. Whatever I do it just crashes when I try to deactivate it.
I tried a hard reset of the device AND microdrive prior to installing Wm6 and THIS didn't work either. I've also tried the WM5torage cab posted in this thread by mackaby007. No luck.
I've tried Softkey Card Export ii as well and that just keeps reconnecting to activesync before windows even gets chance to recognise it as a mass storage device.
I think I've ran out of ideas.....

Just tried it with WM5torage 1.72 and that seems to be working fine.
Just transferred a 700mb file without hitch.
Wonder what the problem was with 1.75
try out card export 3.0
i heard this is a god sofwtare
I tried to see what could be wrong
I installed Card Export II but it would not ran and complains of missing dll's, but WM5torage 1.73 worked instantly. I have just transfered 3.5 Gb of music and some clips to test it. No problems yet and transfer took about 20 mins.
Could your problem be caused by installed software? Will have a look at Card Export 3 (never heard of it, or their notice must have gone to spam folder)
I've always been able to use version 1.73 smoothly in the past. Then, later I tried out version 1.75 thinking that it might work better. I could connect and activate. I had no problem transferring small files. However, it always stopped recognising the device as a valid USB mass storage a few minutes into the transfer operation. The de-activation would hang the device. I then went back to the older version that I still kept in my PC, (Modaco only has the faulty new version), and everything works again. I transferred a 3.7 gb file without problem.
So, make sure you do not use version 1.75 from the Modaco site.
doh!
I just read the first page and installed the 1.75 version which does crach my ameo as well. Can anyone tell me where to get version 1.72?
Please test the new WM5torage 1.78 beta version on your Athenas. It should again work on long transfers without glitches.
Feedback is needed, so please report in the main support forum here - http://www.modaco.com/WM5torage-t238545.html
Unless people with Athenas will participate in testing, there will be no good support for it...
Where can we get the 1.78 version
when I go to the link in the previous post, and click on download, it suggest only versuin 1.75
I'm having same error described in post #1 on my HTC Athena WM6.
Actually the error occurs only when using PC with WIN XP OS, while on my laptop which runs Win 2000 I don't have that problem at all.
Cheers
I've tried version 1.73, 1.75 and 1.78 beta 2 and only 1.73 is working.
On other versions i'm getting same error as Leoni
Cheers
I've tried loads of versions now but can't seem to gwet my hands on 1.73.
All the cabs marked 1.73 are 1.75
Can someone post a working 1.73 cab please

yes its a good while ago now since I posted that thread. but I do recall trying unticking the advanced network functionality box with my original wm5 tmob rom and also with the leaked wm6 rom. I also recall that it still didn't work. I really did try everything but only found success when installing the older version of wm5torage.I still cannot fathom why wm5torage 1.75 worked for some people but not for me. I haven't tested it since installing p.k.s black rom but will try tomorrow.
sorry to be a buttlicker olipro but cheers for your work by the way
I have QuickGPS set to autoupdate everytime the HD is connected via activesync.
The problem is, I always get a message appear:
"A problem has occurred with QuickGPS.exe"
Can anyone help?
Thanks!
No more Quick gps after new ROM
I updated my HD with a new official ROM. I can download Quick gps - data only with gprs but not with Active Sync as before. I got an error message: "Connection failed. Please try again later.
The Weather - update is going well with Active Sync.
Does anybody know, how to fix the problem?

Update via Windows Mobile Device Centre (Vista's version of ActiveSync) has worked for me on the Original ROM, an updated Official ROM and the current up-to-date ROM.
I have not had an issue with QuickGPS not updating via ActiveSync/WMDC.
Answer found! It works again!
I did several things: edited registry entries, copied files and went back.. none worked. What finally did it was one of two things (and I don't really know which was it that did the trick - please try both and do tell):
1. I manually downloaded http://service.mio-tech.com/eeservice/packedephemeris.ee and put it as packedEphemeris.ee under the HD's \Windows folder (note the capital E in the middle of the name - you have to change that!) - this appears to be a manual way to update the QuickGPS database, as described elsewhere here in the forums. Soft Reset afterwards.
2. I removed and reinstalled ActiveSync 4.5... Kinda simpler
So although I spent 4 hours of my life looking for the answer... One of these did the trick
Cheers,
Ethan

Mobile Device Centre with Vista works also with my HD, but not Active sync with Windows XP. This is the first rom, which has that kind of problem with Quick gps.
Quick gps data updates with gprs and also Weather.

I took HD to my working place and tried to update Quick gps -data with different pc and Internet connection. It did not succeed.
Later at home Quick gps started to update data with my pc and Active sync.
The same thing happened also with my other Htc - phone, Iolite.
This helped me already the second time. I did not edit Registry or anything else.
