Database Users

Anyone using SplashID on their K-Jam?

I'm trying to get my database moved to my K-Jam from my PDA2K. I can't seem to make it work. I move the .sdb, but it won't open on my K-Jam. Not sure if I'm missing something.
Thanks,
tom

This is what works for me: From the desktop SplashID app, "Export" all items in the PDA2K database to a .vid file, install SplashID on the KJAM setting the password to the same one as the desktop SplashID app and then sync. This will establish a new SplashID user (with blank data) in the desktop app with the same user name as the KJAM device name. Set the password for this new user to the same as on the KJAM SplashID. "Import" the saved database .vid file to the new user on the desktop. Make sure that SplashID is checked in the ActiveSync options and then re-sync. After that all the PDA2K data will be on your KJAM.

So there's not a way to just copy the database (or beam it) to my K-Jam?

Here's the strange part, I tried your suggestion but ran into a problem. I got the files into the SID desktop, but when I try to sync, it says the passwords don't match and it won't transfer. It takes the same password to open the desktop as it does to open the pda. Not sure what's wrong.
I keep getting "67 items unresolved" and password must match in order to sync. They do match though!
Thanks,
Tom

I don't know. This always works for me. I guess I would try uninstalling SID on the KJAM and then reinstalling it, making sure that the pw matches the desktop SID pw and then re-syncing. Seems like something is wrong with your pw somewhere so just redefining it to a simple one like "1234" on both SIDs and then syncing might be the first thing to try.
The problem that I used to have before using the procedure that I outlined before was that I would get duplicates of both the data items and the categories so I would sometimes wind up deleting all data and categories from both the desktop and PDA SIDs, then importing the data to the desktop SID from the .vid file and re-syncing. This would clear things up.
Sorry I am not more help here,
Frank

No problem....thanks for the suggestions. I just tried deleting everything I could find relating to SID and started over. No luck...password problem still. I've sent an email over to SplashData for help. Thanks again!!

I've had this several times after re-establishing an Activesync partnership. The cure is usually to reset the password on both the desktop and PPC a couple of times until they sync.

ActiveSync every 5 minute

Hi, new to the form. This is a useful place!
Am with O2 Mini S, 1.5.70, AS 4.1, XP sp1, Oulook 2k3.
Does anyone notice AS runs every 5 minutes? I first tried the Add Server Source hack by WM5 Axim users, but didn't work. I couldn't find any registry entry that relates to the sync frequency.
Apart from suffering the unplug usb and wizzard freeze problem seen here. AS syncs every 5 minutes really annoys me. I need to rely on AS's tcp via bluetooth to use networking on the device and AS is heavy weight process.
So far, I have some solutions:
1. kill the wce* processes, which leaves the device connected (TCP stack still works, USB charges) but AS on the desktop says disconnected. Your wizzard's AS will still TRY to sync every 5 minutes, but it'll return quickly because the desktop ain't listening. But remember to double click AS on your desktop when you need to sync stuff again.
2. Replace the useless MS bluetooth stack with the widcomm stack taken from the Atom? Then use the PAN profile for connection. Disconnect PAN and run AS via bt from the device when needed. (But PAN on PC is not always possible as company laptops will almost certainly not allow internet connection sharing, never mind allowing you to have BT PAN enabled in the first place)
So afterall, does anyone know how to re-enable manual syncing? Some registry hack? AS 4.x is such a big step backward, I already have to disable firewall and VPN service from my company laptop when connecting, AS 3.8 was so much better when I was with an ipaq or SP3i. May be a sticky with enough post on it to get M$' to fix AS.

There are numerous threads relating to AS 4.1 and starting every x mins .... Please try to search next time....
Anyway, the simplest way is to create a dummy server entry in AS (On the mobile device) then when creating it uncheck all the "MAIL / NOTES / ..." entries in the advanced section. Once the Server has been created you can modify the server sync to set it to never.
For more info have a look through this forum for other threads on AS 4.1.

sorry if that has been talked about alot before, I suspected it. But I did a search before and couldn't find related stuff on this site, plenty of firewall/VPN stuff found which I also had a problem with...
The Add Server Source hack has been widely referenced in the dell Axim WM5 forums. As I mentioned, it didn't work for me, my ROM is very recent, as the phone is new for two weeks. I couldn't find any entry in the device registry that suggests it will run at any schedule! Although I can see peak time settings...etc but none of the scheduling options in registry.
Am really wondering if this is a problem with the specific ROM.

Yeah, I aplogise, am I bad, didn't read all your post....
Have you got any other apps that try to update regularly like Weather plugins etc?

I can agree with humps on that.
I've got a new k-jam and tried to stop AS4.1 from syncing when not connected to pc, by creating a fake server then through options setting it to manual sync.
No luck however as it still comes up in the list of running programs whenever i check :evil:

fix for constantly syncing when USB-connected
Sorry in advance if this isn't the right place for this.
I was so mad about Activesync 4.5 re-syncing during two out of every five minutes when connected via USB that I implemented a workaround that might prove useful to others as well. The result is that you can click an icon on your desktop computer and instantly change whether your handheld willl connect to its partnership for syncing or as a guest for doing other work (or just charging). Most of my data syncs wirelessly with an Exchange server anyway, and MightySync and PocketController function independent of the ActiveSync partnership. Ah, the peace ;-)
Here are the steps:
1. Change HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows CE Services\GuestOnly to "1".
2. Export HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows CE Services\Partners\[your device's partnership key] to a .reg file with name like "partnership.reg".
3. Create a batch file or script to stop WCESMGR, import the .reg file (regedit /s = silent) and restart WCESMGR. Name it like "partnership.bat".
4. Make a copy of the .reg file, edit it to *delete* the reg info (place a minus sign inside the beginning bracket of each key/subkey name), and name it like "guest.reg".
5 Create a new batch file or script to stop WCESMGR, import the guest.reg file and restart WCESMGR. Name it like "guest.bat".
6. When you execute "guest.bat," your device's partnership is deleted, and with the "GuestOnly" key enabled and no partnership found, ActiveSync will connect it as a guest without asking. After you execute "partnership.bat," ActiveSync will be ready to recognize your device on connection and sync.
7. Now, create a batch file or script that allows you to choose which .bat to execute, so you have one thing to click to go back and forth between connection types.
As will be obvious, I'm not a programmer AT ALL. I use pskill to clobber WCESMGR, and CHOICE.EXE copied form Server 2003 to choose connection type. It could be done more elegantly...but it sure works.
Only caveat: Later changing of syncing settings might require re-export of .reg key and recreate/edit of.reg-delete file.

Keyboard

Well, very strange: Since a couple of days everytime I open up the keyboard menu I found myself with a list of probalby a hundred selection entries. Not only Keyboard etc, but also strange names like:
ATI Audio Decider DMO Class
Active SSCE engibe Object...
CE Shell...
(you get the idea)
I opened up sipchange.exe and found the same entries.
Seems my registry got corrupted. Everything else works. Could someone send me an export of the standard registry entries for the SIPs?
Would be very appreciated, thank you.

More on this issue ....
Ok, after reading some of the Wiki I found out, that I find all Input methods in
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\
Well, and I could put them on "hide" by setting the IsSIPInputMethod to "0".
since I found like 150 entries in CLSID - I would like to know if it is safe to completely delete the CLSID entries that are not corresponding to my standard inputs or if I have to manually set all IsSIPInputMethod to "0". Inother words: Do I need the other CLSID entries for anything else?
I would now really really appreciate if someone could send me his part of the registry below "HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\" from a Hermes.
Could Paypal help anyone for his effort? I would suggest SKTools since it can export a registry. I only need the part mentioned above.
Regards,
Apple*

And again...
Well, it seems the entries have to stay there. Just looked at an old backup registry.
Well, anyone knows a registry editor that can easily "search & replace" entries?
Regards,
Apple*

All done ...
No idea which application tampered with my registry - but I managed to put all the values back to normal:
I did a Export with the Registry-AddIn from Resco Explorer 2005, then I exported this to a PC, edited the file with an Texteditor and copied it back to the device. Resco Explorer did import the .reg file without problems.
Didnt know Resco Explorer had an import function as well :

Well done you did it with no help from anyone. I would have helped out but site was so slow until now that I was not able to do much for anybody recently - sorry.
Cheers
Mike

Is anyone using a 3 uk simcard in a hermes tytn or spvm3100. Im having problems connecting to msn and skype via gprs. I was wondering if anyone could post their 3 uk settings especially the phone band settings. I used to be able to connect to skype and msn but ever since I temperd with the settings it refuses to connect. It connects onto the 3g network to surf the net though. They both also connect using wifi. Help please!!!

Telco Settings - Wiki?
Well, there are more and more posts about GPRS/MMS settings in these forums. Could anyxone open up a Wiki for WM5/WM6 settings?
I could gladly provide german T-Mobile and Vodafone settings.
Mike, thanks for the offer. I suspect Beemer NullKeyboard in getting all my CLSID registry entries registered as SIP. So a big "caveat" to all readers using this software.

Gprs automaticly connecting

Hi guys,
I have little problem.
My touch dual connects automaticly to gprs without asking.
How can i find wich program or setting triggers this.
Weathers is manual.
Email is manual.
I've installed also NoData. This works fine. But when i enable the gprs and after a while its connecting to gprs.
Is there another program which asks for confirmation when its connecting to gprs.
Thanks.
Regards,
TMF

My phone started doing this randomly the other day, I softreset it and it hasnt happened since.

check again - this is most likely email .... maybe you have more than one email accounts installed and one is asking for data ?
also, what other software do you have on your nike ?

i have 3 email accounts and all are manual. i've checked it.
i've a lot of software on my dual:
fullscreenkeyboard
googlemaps
tomtom
pcmkeyboard
spb pocketplus
Resco Explorer
S2U2
Salling Clicker
Spb Backup
Touchpal
NoData
Opera
Spb Brain Evolution
TCPMP
TotalCommander
ClearTemp
Easysync Pro
SlideActions
I am gonna check if one of these do this.
But is it possible that a callendar entry do this??

I had the same problem and I have tried software reseting the phone, the email functionality was completly turned off. So the only way i found of fixing it is to go to your comm manager and switching off "Data Connection", "microsoft direct push" and "Internet Sharing"

my wifes elf started doing this but we found out it was 'worldmate'. After setting it to manual it was gone. Whatabout your RSSfeed program?

Maybe you have a pending incoming or outgoing mms? this was my problem i believe.

no unfortunately this is not it...

Check Windows Live Messenger if installed. On my TyTNII that was the problem. Start it and make sure to log off before exit the program. Soft reset and see what happens. It worked for me

Step by Step Guide on Making Blackberry Connect work on Touch Pro 2 + Multiple APN's

I have been seeing various posts on people struggling to make BBConnect work on HTC Touch Pro 2 a.k.a Rhodium and thought I would put down a step by step guide from various posts put down through this forum So rejoice all you HTC Touch Pro 2 owners like me BB Connect is finally working and so is Multiple APN's. I have BB Connect Enterprise and GPRS connecting simultaneously and its showing up on the notifications manager.
This step by step solution is thanks to Cornholio, Absahnen & NRGZ8(The Master Chef who cooks wonderful ROms across devices)
So Here Goes
Step I: GET YOURSELF A NEW ROM:
Trying to install Blackberry Connect is very buggy on most of the stock ROMS and will keep on failing. So go and get yourself the latest NRGZ8 ROM for Rhodium I am using Build 21877 27th Nov Standard Manila 2.1. The ROM is anyway faster with almost no bugs and free of Junk that you see on standard ROMS
download the ROM from this link:
http://hotfile.com/list/93322/b5a2687
Step2: CHANGE AKU SETTINGS
This change is needed to make BB Connect work on WinMo 6.5 ROMS.
Using a registry editor go to HKLM/System/Versions
There you will see the aku key usually on any WinMo 6.5 ROM its .5.xx.xx change the aku value to .1.6.0(.1.6.3 didnt work, the connection was getting dropped)
Step 3: FOOLING YOUR BB CONNECT SOFTWARE TO THINK YOUR DEVICE IS A RAPHAEL
The Rhodium is not yet supported by RIM and looks like they have withdrawn support for further devices. Therefore you need the BB connect to believe that your Touch Pro 2 is a Touch Pro i.e. Your Rhodium is a Raphael. To do this you have to make registry changes you can use any registry editor I used Resco Registry Editor which loads when you load Resco Explore on your device To do this follow the steps below very carefully, using the registry editor
Instructions:
------------
- Uninstall any BB Connect software if you loaded.
- Attached find a rar file which contains SetModelID.exe. Unzip it and copy it over to the \windows\ folder of your device.
- Using any registry editor of your choice navigate to HKLM\init Create a new String Value with the name "Launch130" and a value of "SetModelID.exe" (without the quotes)
If Launch130 already exists, choose a number greater than 130, it doesn't really matter, just make sure it is higher than the other entries so it get started after everything else.
This makes sure the exe isnt started after every softreset.
- Do a softreset
- The program changes your model-id from "HTC-Rhodium" to "HTC-Raphael" in memory
- Install Blackberry Connect like you usually do (My tests where successfull with version 4.0.0.106)
- After installation and the auto-reset through BBC open the BBC settings and go to the Info-Tab. Under device-name there should now be HTC-Raphael.
- If you're using BES configure your device using enterprise activation or the BB Connect desktop app
STEP 4: ENABLING MULTIPLE APN'S
This will allow you simultaneously have an active BBConnect and a GPRS connection active at the same time
Go to:
HKLM\Software\OEM\RIL\OperatorContexts
There you will find several numbers. E.g. 26202 for Vodafone in Germany.
The number is a combination of MCC / MNC so 262 02. You might find you operator in this list:
http://surfio.de/info/mcc_mnc/mcc_mnc_liste_6.html
or do a google search for your specific operators MCC/MNC nos
Create the two DWord Value Entries below if they arent there:
GPRSContextNumber = 3
UMTSContextNumber = 3
Just set the Contexts value to 3 and delete the NetworkContexts entry. It will be created from the source above with the value 3.
And voila you will have multiple connections running simultaneously you can get your BB Mails as well as see Youtube videos over GPRS. I managed to do this over a frustrating 48 hour period and I thought will share this for anyone seeking an answer.
Cheers and enjoy

Man! The guide looks great! but it makes my brain hurt!!! Arggg!!!
(Hardly understand some part of the guide.)
: )

Heres my step by step, plus all the software and a cab called black berry that someone else kindly put together for me that does all the registry steps (and makes the multiple APN switch for TMOB US). (BTW this has worked on EVERY ROM I have used, 6.1, 6.5, 6.53, sense 2.1 and 2.5):
['black berry cab' does all these]:
Copy SetModelID.exe into windows
HKLM\init: Create a new string: Launch130 with value: SetModelID.exe
HKLM\system\versions\aku - change to .1.6.3 [which works for me]
HKLM\Software\OEM\RIL\OperatorContexts\...
Create new ones or edit your relevant operators GPRS and UMTS to 3
[for US find them in http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_mobile_network_codes_in_the_United_States]
HKLM\Comm\Cellular\RIL\
set the Contexts value to 3
Delete the NetworkContexts entry
Soft Reset
Install BB Settings CAB
(I always create a shortcut in programs from 'BB Settings' in Program Files/Blackberry - its a quick way to run this file later)
Either: Using BB connect desktop for WM 'configure wireless handset' (see below)
Or: get new key generated by your company's tech support and enter them into BB Settings on your device
(Activesync blackberry connect desktop setup can be found at http://sems.org/content/download/bbc4/bb_desktop_4.0.0.22.zip. I use this becuase YOU CAN GENERATE YOUR OWN KEY and configure your handset again and again which means you dont have to bug tech support every time you burn a new ROM, which I do every few days!)

for some reason I cant upload the blackberry connect cab, so here is the link http://sems.org/content/download/bbc4/bbconnect_wm6_professional_bb.4.0.0.106.cab
black berry cab is attached.

Well what can I say Mr What 150 was trying to help. The step by step guid is written keeping noobs in mind so that you dont get back Q's on How to do this? and How to do that? and help ppl besides just those in the US who cant use the cab posted here anyways and dont know how to write complicated XML codes.

Thanks a lot patcat!!!
I had my rhodium working with BB connect but no multiple APNs... had to manually suspend BB service and enable GPRS everytime I needed anything from the internet. Those days are gone now!!!
Now, have you ever wondered why is it that BB Messenger, being a Java application, can not be ported to WM and run on our TP2s? I mean, we have our BB data plans, a PIN# and are connected to the Blackberry service.. what else do we need for BB Messenger to work?

You are welcome Roberto. I havent yet come across any cab for BB messenger. There has been talk of a BB application suite to run on WinMo but I havent seen any beta's also of that floating around. If you do come across any BB Messenger cab do post it here or PM me the cab.

Most reliable method
Here is what I do...I think it is the most reliable method....and I have used it with just about every ROM out there and it works...everytime...It looks like a lot of steps but it is very easy and after the first ROM flash you will know what do do for any others...I actually learned this from this site and MUCH smarter people than me...so thanks to all those who helped get Blackberry Connect working. Without this site I might still have an 8525 because I need blackberry connect...!
Installing Blackberry connect...this has to happen in this order...
1. Download a ROM
2. Edit the ROM using the information from here, it looks complicated but takes less than a minute essentially you use the program you download to change any reference to Rhodium to Raphael using a search: http://www.silentservices.de/HexEdit-ROM-for-BBC.html
3. Flash the edited ROM.
4. Install the CAB file I attached it will change the AKU for you...I actually put it in my UC script so it automatically installs before Blackberry Connect...
5. Install Blackberry Connect version 4.0.0.106
Allowing Multiple APN's (This can happen at ANY time)
Follow step four in the original guide or if you are AT&T all you have to do is use a registry editor and go to HKLM\Software\OEM\RIL\Operator Contexts\310410 and change UMTSContextNumber to 2. If you use 2 then you don't have to worry about anything else like deleting the Network Contexts entry....

Works excellently on my TP2 with .106 cab on Vodafone India network at Delhi.
Good work bro, well sorted out steps

PIN Pending
Hu there, Thanks for all your help, The device has changed into Raphael but I still get PIN pending? how can I have Blackberry Service if there is no pin? help please

Hello,
I have done as per above steps but I am still getting Pin Pending. I am using HTC touch Pro 2 with Win Mo 6.5. In BlackBerry Connect About Device Type is HTC-Raphael.
Please help me what to do how can I resolve thie issue.

Address book, Sending pictures via Email not available
Hi,
I've got everything working thanks to you guys.
When composing a new Email, the address book is not being used (no Auto completion or suggestion).
I would take a picture from the camera but the option to send via Email is greyed out with the account setup via BB.
No HTML Email viewing.
Is it designed to work like that with BB Connect?

PIN is provided by GSM service provider. These step enable the BBC software to accept your handset model as compatible for BB services. Its not a hack for working BB without BB activation. Get the BB services activated from GSM operator and u shall have a PIN also.

I added what I know...it does seem since Blackberry connect is an older program everything ends up like a work around...
When composing a new Email, the address book is not being used (no Auto completion or suggestion).
It won't auto complete. If you click the menu and use the "check Names" feature it will first look in your address book and then if you hit Lookup it will look in the global address book. A little more cumbersome but it works.
I would take a picture from the camera but the option to send via Email is greyed out with the account setup via BB.
I have not been able to send photos from the camera in the last several Roms...so I think it is the newer Album that doesn't allow it. You can still send it by attaching it when creating an email, but yes this is a little cumbersome as well...
I only have one email account setup on my device which i

hi there, i have the same problem of not having a pin on my tp2, my carrier says the pin is on the device here is a copy and paste of my carrier web iste when i tried to activate the service
"To find your PIN perform one of the following actions:
* In the BlackBerry device options or settings, click Status.
* Look for the PIN and IMEI information on the outside of the box that your BlackBerry device or BlackBerry-enabled device came in.
* Turn the BlackBerry device off and remove the battery. Look for the sticker on the BlackBerry device with the PIN information where the battery is usually located."

Nice tutorial, patcat007. On my TP2 with a 6.5 ROM my BB Connect work. Anyway, when I change the AKU to .1.6.3, something happens with graphics in my dialer like in the picture attached. Anyone could help to correct this? Thank's!
