I get a message, telling me to soft reboot my XDA. When I do that nothing happens and the GPRS monitor isn't getting installed, I've tried looking for the CAB file but can't find it.
Does anyone have any ideas?

Anybody help me please. After a hard re-set, I can't load SPB GPRS Monitor back to my o2 XDA Exec. When I try and transfer the application it is not picked up as an application that can be loaded through activesync. What is going on?
Thanks :?
Hi Guys
I have the JJ working well, and I have always seemed to have this problem, but the ActiveSync always just starts up by itself without being connected or requested to.
I have read a few forums on this but nothing really helped. My original thought was SPB Weather wanting to auto update, but any changes to these settings didnt help.
I have done a full hard reset today, and keeped the apps pretty straight forward, ie the SPB suite (PP, Diary, Play, Weather, GPRS), and Resco (Explorer, Audio, Radio, Photo). Switched to MSVC rather than the original phone dialler. The rest is pretty much as it has come.
I havent done any registry hacks yet as I thought I would test a clean run on this to see how it goes.
I have read that ActiveSync is a big drain on the memory, and never likes to give all the memory back from what it needs when starting up, so every time I kill it in running programs, it comes back. I get about 600kb every time I kill it, but I am sure it takes more than that to run and start it.
Anyway, any ideas as to what might be causing it to startup by iteslf would be great. Further ideas on how to stop it from automatically starting would be wonderful.
activesync autostart
doesnt anybody have any comments or feedback as to their experiences with activesync auto starting of it own accord? it constantly needs to be shut down from running programs.
Does it happen to you? does it not happen to you? do you know what the cause is? do you know how to fix it?
anybody?
Simon, I have no major issues with activesync running.
Are you saying that AS is popping up even from hard reset?
Ensure that you're not running an RSS reader etc, I use Newsbreak and it loves to try to connect up to the 'net.
It seems that it is likely to be the weather, or possibly gprs prog, that is requesting access to a net connection. Try disabling the weather app completely. I use weather panel, and it took some arm twisting to get it to stop automatically seeking out a net connection.
Worst case, set up a spoof or dummy network connection that is unable to connect to the net. Set this as your default connection when you're offline, and then any progs trying to access the net will be thwarted. This solution at least works perfectly for me with Newsbreak for reading the news "offline".

I had the same problem with my JJ and I found a setting ("Schedule") in AS on the JJ that allowed me to set the syn to "Manual". Funny, I've not this problem on my Exec.
hi
this happens as AS is by default required to connect to server automatically at a given interval
inorder to get rid of this...go into AS and create a fake server (put any values) then after creating it..reclick options and go into schedule and change the settings to manual sync and check the roam box aswell
tht shod take care of it
Thanks zohaer21 and jah
I will let you know how it goes, it was more frustrating than anything, not sure if it is the cause of my memory drain. I knew of sync manually option somewhere from my 2003 days, but since I didnt setup a sync with a server connection, the ability to set a schedule was always greyed out.
I'll see how long it takes, if at all before it pops up again.
Cheers
Simon
I have the same problem... AS starts without been requested...

@Betox, from what I remember you need to be linked via AS to your PC/laptop and then from either the JJ or the PC you should be able to change the Schedule to "manual".
JJ & AS
worked perfectly thanks people for your help.
create the dummy server sync, set the sync connections to manual.
delete the server sync.
havent seen head nor tail of activesync since.

Can anyone tell me how to install the GPRS Monitor for SPV-M5000. The manual says it is on the CD but I cannot find it on there anywhere. What directory contains the setup files etc ??
Thanks
It doesn't come with the GPRS monitor. It was pulled just before release but the Docs were not changed. Call Orange and complain.
Hi
I have a KJam and I am trying to sync it at work. I downloaded AS 4.1 on my Win2K pc but it keeps giving me the Retrieving Settings message for ever. I dont think there is firewall on the pc and I need some help to get it running
Thanks a lot
any help guys, still have the problem
XP Needed
i think you have to use microsoft windows xp to sync your wizard.
So no luck with Win2K, I thought that people can do it with Win2000 and aslo from Microsoft Site AS seems to be working on 2000
Thats really bad
Me too
I also have this problem with one Wizard - my wife also has a Wizard, exactly the same which has no problem syncing to the same PC. I get the same message you get " retrieving settings" which hangs for ever until I disconnect. I'm on W2k.
Did you find and answer? It's obviously not a W2k issue if one Wizard can sync.
No I cant still sync with WIN2K, someone suggested that you do hard reset and it should work. I tried on mine and still didnt work
A random guess- applied SP4? Also which firmware version you are using?
Finally I have it working!
William - Yes, I'm on SP4
Akronica - I've finally managed to get both Wizards sync'ed. Here's what I had to do. Firstly, I'm using Sygate Personal Firewall, so I follwed the directions via the link here to set up the advanced rules. See http://www.pocketpcfaq.com/faqs/activesync/tshoot-as4x.htm This also might be useful to you for troubleshooting.
Then I added/altered 3 registry settings in my PPC (as also mentioned in the above link) using a freeware called "PHM Regedit". I downloaded the PHM Regedit from here:
http://www.pocketpcfreewares.com/en/index.php?soft=31
Just a note: I obviously couldn't use the ActiveSync installer to get this product installed, so I copied the entire directory over to my phone (via mini SD card) and then tried to launch each file. The first few didn't install successfully, but I finally did get one to install OK. The file that worked for me was "regedit_Mrln_ARM.CAB".
So, after all that I connected up and as soon as the cable was in, I soft reset the PPC. Sure enough, it made a new connection via the connection wizard and off it went.
Another note: I also turned off any passwords on the PPC, just in case. I'll do some more playing and see if this makes any difference.
Hope this helps!
Rob

Interesting
On mine it connects (win2k SP4), but drops the connection about 60s into sync.
:wink:
I've now confirmed that the passwords had no impact.
I don't have any problems with it dropping connection either.
Wow yeah, I've had absolutely no problems synching with my win2k sp4. hm.

That is odd. I think the only thing that would do that is if you installed something new. But you already said, you did not install anything. My only recommendation is try to uninstall any programs of yours that requires internet access one at a time and see if it will restore PIE functions. One of them might be the culprit. Always perform a soft reset after each uninstall then test PIE. Because if you don't find out which application is causing the coflict with PIE, it does not matter if you do a hard reset and install everything from the start, because you are not getting rid of the problem by doing it that way you might encounter the same problem in the future.
Give us a list of all your installed applications and where you installed them, to the SD Card, Ext ROM, or Main Memory. Someone from this site might recognize something. Sorry if I did not help.
Hello, have you tried using opera or some other browser?
Are you connecting through 3G/GPRS or via activesync/wi-fi - and if so does it work the other way?
How about your connection settings - e.g. VPN's, modems wich network connects to work, which to internet.
Do you have any sites IP addresses in your exceptions list?
If you are at work can you connect to any directories on your file server, or any intranet sites?
Cheers
ok opera works but i dont want to pay for it, lol will try the uninstalling of apps, but i have it in my head that it could have started on the first, im on o2 and their free gprs ended on the 31st march, but then the fact that everything else is working kinda rules that out, i have went through my device connection settings, i am gona put it down to either a registry setting has changed sumhow by either sumthing i did or by sumthing an app did, or its a conflict with another app, thanks for ur support guys, will try out the sugestions tonite, thanks
