every minute or two (random) my tytn wakes up by himself..
i think that ive narrow it down to "active sync" and/or "internet connection" (gprs data over sim) that i have.
i have an exchange account in my tytn AS ,i have tried to put it on "when items arrives" and "manual" and it still doesnt works the software that i have installed are:
SPB POCKET PLUSE
SPB PHONE SUITE
i dont know what to do...
I have the same issue...started happening when I installed Black 3.0 not sure if its related though.
Thats nothing. Quite regulary my phone makes random calls. The last one was a few nights ago at 3am. My phone called my wife while we were asleep.
I think your house is haunted...[GHOST NOISES]wooooooo ooooooooo! [/GHOST NOISES]

I have a similar problem with my phone and I think there are multiple causes.
I noticed that my phone would go on by itself until it timed out and then shut off again. I had set my backlight to turn off after 2 minutes when not in use and I had also set the screen to turn off after 2 minutes when not in use. Somehow these two settings conflicted causing the phone to cycle on/off every two minutes. I corrected it by disabling the backlight shutoff and just leaving the screen shutoff timer active.
I have my phone setup to connect to my exchange server at work. When I plug into my computer at home it tries to synch with my exchange server at work and the connection will NOT go through. I assume this is because the exchange server access is looking for a portable device not the home computer and will not allow the connect, but if I synch while not connected it works fine. The problem is that everytime I plug into the PC it will fail at the exchange portion of the synch leaving an error message on the screen and the screen will NOT power off automatically as long as that message is there. Additionally, the phone will try and synch automatically every x hours as it was setup regardless of whether it is connected to the computer or standalone which will trigger the situation above again.
I have also found that if the phone sits with that error on the screen for a while, when I disconnect from the PC and try to do something with the phone it will sometimes lock up and I have to reset it to get it working again. It remains unresponsive to any screen taps or button presses.
I believe that whenever the phone is plugged into the computer setup with ActiveSync it will use that computers internet connection rather than it's own connection which is what leads to my exchange synch problem.
Well i remember this happening on my wizard and i narrowed it to weatherpanel connecting to check for updates and also if you have a password for when you turn on your phone from sleeping that also kept making the phone come out of stand by.

hi
i have this annoying problem on my JJ
the activesync keeps turning itself on in the ppc...
i have 4.1 AS on the computer and i sync via usb... never made any connection settings on the pocketpc and dont have any server options aswell ... but every 4-5 mins if i go back to RUNNING PROGRAMS i can see activesync running... i have just formatted my JJ for last 2 days hoping i would get rid of this problem as i thought some 3rd party software was calling AS... but after hard reset (and no 3rd party software) im still having this problem
can any one advise? im on vacation and cant keep the damn charger in my pocket all the time nor is a socket available at all times to charge it ... this is for those who wonder why im bothered so much by AS running in background...coz it keeps the processor busy and that uses extra battery!!!
thanks
The active sync turns itself on because by default it is set to sync with an exchange server every so often. To get rid of this on your JJ go to the active sync program. From the menu create an imaginary server by any name say "ABC". Now go to menu again and select "Schedule". Finally under "Sync During" Peak times / Off-Peak times select "Manually" from both the drop down lists. You will never see the active sync progam start up by itself again.
Lately I've been having wierd connectivity issues with my Universal. It started happening occasionally a few weeks ago, but now seems to happen fairly frequently.
Sometimes after I soft reset the phone it makes it's GPRS connection, but it doesn't work. I am using ActiveSync with Exchange 2003 SP2 and when it's in this state I don't get new email. If I try to manually Send/Receive when it's in this state it says "Connecting..." then "Syncronizing Folders" for several minutes, then "Finished", however, nothing is actually syncronized. If I try to go to a web site in Opera it says "Looking up host", then "Sending Request" but never gets any further.
Originally I thought it might have been a Cingular issue, however, my wife's Treo 650 has no problems with data connections during the same time that it's not working for me, and if we swap SIMs my SIM works flawlessly in her Treo and hers exhibits the same issues on my phone. I've also just discovered that I have the same issues trying to connect to a wifi network when the phone is in this state. It clams that I'm connected to the network, but it just can't seem to send any data across.
In the past I had usually been able to fix by soft resetting once or twice, but lately that doesn't always seem to work. Sometimes I'll give up and just let it sit and all of a sudden I'll start receiving email (sometimes it takes several hours for this to happen) and sometimes after (quite) a few soft resets it starts working again. Once it's working, it seems to continue working (even for days at a time) until I soft reset the phone. Unfortunately, mostly because of memory issues I seem to have to reset at least once every day or two, if not more frequently.
I have no problem sending or receiving phone calls or text messages while I'm having problems with data.
I'm about ready to do a hard reset, but I was wondering if anyone else had seen anything like this or had any suggestions.
Thanks,
Brett
I don't know if mine is identical or not, but it sounds pretty close.
Here's what I'm seeing:
- Primarily in morning, ActiveSync will sync with Exchange server a la Direct Push. Sync happens fine. Another email comes in a moment or two later, it will not sync. Get an error code 80070008 (or close to it). What I do is disconnect GPRS, and stop the ActiveSync process. Restart it on the 8125, and the sync works just fine.
- Browsing. I'm using the Cingular settings. I'll try to go to a site, and it'll just sit there "locating".. Eventually, usually around the 1 minute mark, it will finally connect and find the site. I'll go to a different site, and it's generally just fine as long as I'm still in IE. I'll minimize it, go to another application, let it go for a bit, whatever, and it's the same thing all over again. Never dropped GPRS or closed IE. Strange thing about it is ActiveSync seems to work pretty quick by comparison, only difference is that it's going over SSL.
I'm not sure if it's a Cingular deal, or something with the WM-based devices. It happened all of a sudden. I've tried hard resetting, changing ROM's, using and not using the proxy...pretty much everything I can think of.
I know it doesn't help, but it doesn't sound like you're the only one having these problems.
Both my Hermes and my Universal have this problem so I must be doing something wrong.
My Hermes is set to check my work's exchange server for mail ever 15 mins or so. It works just fine, until I then connect it to my laptop for charging or transfer of applications etc.
When I hook it up to my laptop, it syncs with exchange again just fine using the laptop's connection but after I disconnect the device it refuses to get mail over the air unless I perform a soft reset. No errors are given it just takes a very long time to try to sync before timing out and displaying the last sync time as the last time it successfully synced.
After a soft reset everything is fine until I once again connect it to my laptop.
It's driving me mad.
Hi, we're experiencing the same problem with HTC TyTN and Microsoft DirectPush, so you are not alone

i've been searching around many forums for the past week and cant seem to find the answer. My mda connects to active sync for like 3 days and suddenly stops working. My computer recognizes the mda and you could hear the sound but active sync doesnt. The freen wheel keeps spinning and says connecting . Everytime i do a hard reset it connects for a quick minute and then it stops. I tried installing a fresh copy of windows and still it wouldnt work. Ive installed and reinstalled active sync about 10 times and still nothing.
update i have noticed that its starts doing the spinning wheel thing when a big G appears at the top of the screen
the g means its on gprs, usually so shouldnt be whats causing it.
do you have any firewalls installed? when you plug in your vario its connection to the computer emulates a network connection so your vario can see the internet when plugged into the pc for example.
its possible that your firewall is blocking it, so try disabling and see if it helps.
as for why it might work then not work, im not sure, maybe something about what active sync does might trigger some kind of attack detection.
hope this helps
I have a new AT&T Pure with an exchange email address set up to receive emails as they arrive. If the phone is not in standby mode the emails come in without a problem at the same time I receive them in Outlook. Once the phone is in standby mode (screen turns off) emails come in sporadically or not at all until I wake the phone up. If I just set it to dim and not turn screen off I am fine. Is anyone else having this issue?
I've found ActiveSync on my Touch Diamond2 very unreliable. It will work for a while but repllog.exe crashes at some point, usually overnight. Only fix is to restart the phone or manually kill the task - it's often doesn't respond to shutdown (indicating it's crashed) and has to be manually ended. Doing a sync immediately always works.
I'm hoping that they've fix this bug in WM 6.5...
Cheers, Rob.
This is a brand new phone with WM 6.5. Everything works finew when phone is not in standby. Once in standby emails don't come in when they should.

You mean by standby, not cable/activesync attached?
I'm still wondering about gmail push, I set everything up as said, but when I'm cabled to my work computer, I don't get gmail.
I have to disconnect and then get gmail push. **sigh**
Ahh, isn't that a setting on ActiveSync? Something about allowing internet connection when docked. I think when a WM is connected via ActiveSync, the internet connection goes through your PC which sometimes is blocked.

No, I unchecked that, same result, even after powering off/on. I think that option is misleading
some thoughts and my experience...
Do you expect emails to arrive over wifi, or gprs, The behavior is different by design.
As they arrive, in schedule settings for example only works as most people expected over gprs.( this is also called microsoft direct push) and can be toggled on/off in settings tab on most htc phones.
this also requires a constant open data connection over gprs. the phone will try to open it for you if you enable direct push option.
its also important that the carrier supports long http requests over grps for direct push to work correctly.(this is why gprs need to be open all the time)
if you deactivate the gprs-data connection, direct push will fail until it succeds a long http to the eas server again.(exchange active sync)
when i use direct push option over gprs, emails always arrive instantly (within a few sec.) to my phone regardless of standby or awake. 98% of the time anyway...
Now i have set mine to sync over wifi. however not pushed to my phone as it only works over gprs.i usually set schedule to 5 min.
if set direct push/as arrive over wifi the schedule seems to change depending on how often emails arrive. the polls seemes to be longer and longer apart if mailbox is idle. schedule a bit unclear...
i figured this out by setting a constant ping from pc to the phone and watched the response in standby mode.( wifi not set to always on even in standby) so i got response time out most of the time.
i noticed that after a certain time the phone began to respond to ping for a few seconds( active sync activated wifi in standby to check email according to my setting in schedule and then deactivated it).
if i had unread emails in my exchange mailbox they arrived in the phone as well.
i also read a paper where the direct push schedule where explained by microsoft. it is constructed that way to save as much bandwidh as possible,
i have based this on my observations only.
it would be nice if someone could find a technical paper explaining this further.
tests was done on htc p3600 and stock topaz. wm 6.1
i will do tests again on the 6.5 rom as they come online.
a
Phone is not docked nor am I connected with wifi. Just a GPRS connection. What I mean by standby is that I have the setting enabled to turn off screen after 1 minute.
I have no problem with push email from my exchange server. Remember Push email only works with cell data connection as pointed out. And if you establish ActiveSync connection with a desktop PC, it will be auto-disable and changed to polling instead regardless if you keep the data connection open or not.
I have never connected this phone to a PC.
exchange active sync and wifi
i previously had a TYTNii (Kaiser) which would exchange sync through my home and office wifi (over GPRS) when wifi was available and connected.... However on my Topaz i am unable to exchange sync through wifi when connected for some reason. it will only work through phone connection with wifi off. It appears there are additional connection settings with this WM6.1 device... (priority settings for one connection type over another) but im not sure how to set this up... Help on getting exchange sync working via wifi would be appreciated thanks..
