Wondered if anyone else had this problem. I enable direct push but a few minutes later it shuts down again.
In ActiveSync I set it to "every 5 minuntes" but again it goes back to "as items arrive" very shortly.
Am I missing a setting somewhere?
I have a Mogul with WM6
direct push = 'as items arrive'.
if you 'enable' direct push via comm manager, it automatically sets the interval to 'as items arrive'
Thanks. For some reason I wasn't making that association that dp is synonymous with 'as items arrive'. I finally understand that 'every 5 min' is actually a pull from the device, not a push from the server and taxes the battery, and that one of the reasons for dp is to get around this and still have real time email delivery.

Hi all,
I've been monitoring my memory usage to find out which application is using the most memory and which one is leaking. However, accidentallty, I found out that ActiveSync keep on starting itself and run in the background, taking about 300-400K.
I noticed this when I was trying to figured out why my memory seems to decrease when nothing is running (I didn't start any application). However, if I set the MEssaging application to check email every 15 minutes, ActiveSync seems to start itself every 15-30 minutes. This is shown in the "Running" program tab in the "Memory" applet (Control Panel).
I'll kill the ActiveSync process, then later on it'll come back again.
Does anyone know why is this? It's taking up my previous memory...
***********************************************************
* ACTIVESYNC 4.0 TURNS ON AUTOMATICALLY (DRAINS BATTERY): *
***********************************************************
1) Start up AS on your PDA.
2) Tap the menu tab/soft key and tap "Add Server Source"
3) Configure a server source with a dummy IP address, user id,
password and domain name; these do not have to be real.
4) Once configured you should have another sync source show up
on your main AS screen...continue on.
5) Tap the menu soft key again and you should see that the
sync schedule option is no longer greyed out.
6) Change your schedule from a timed automatic start of AS to
manual under both fields
7) If you try to sync now, AS will try to contact your imaginary
exchange server and that will take forever until it times out,
so you can now delete the exchange server from your list of
sync sources. Your changes to the sync schedule will remain and
will survive soft resets too.
Hi Dodger,
Thanks for your help! I am trying out your solution now and waiting (of course) for the SYnc to my "imaginary" Exchange Server to time out, since it takes ages to do so.
Just a quick question on Step 7 below:
"...so you can now delete the exchange server from your list of
sync sources. Your changes to the sync schedule will remain and
will survive soft resets too.
So you're saying that once I delete the Exhcange Server from my list, ActiveSync will no longer startup automatically but my regular Sync to AS4.1 on my desktop will stay the same?
Well,
I'm not sure about step 7. I've found these steps sometime on the Ineternet and don't know the author of it (forgot, sorry).
I never do step 7.
The procedure however works fine on my 2020 under WM2005.
I just deleted the Exchange Server from the List and so far ActiveSync hasn't started in my MDA yet. I'll keep monitoring and post if it start-up again.
Cheers!
if i set my phone schedule as
peak times - when new items arrive (push)
off peak times - (anything else , eg. manually)
go to the comms manager
turn off direct push , turn on direct push
the off peak schedule changes itself
back to - when new items arrive
this behaviour is also seen in the k jam
is this default , is there anyway of changing this ??
My Qtek s200 does the same thing..
I think you can't change this, it's default.
Hey all
Got my activesync schedule button highlighted by adding another Fake server as per post, set all to manual
but Activesync still turn it self on a 8.01am every morning!!!
In the peak time option, none of the days are highlighted so I don't get it
WHY!!!!
and if you change time in outlook according to picture active sync still run itself on 08.01am?

I dont sync with outlook
i just sync my document folder
Set the phake server again... but this time, DO NOT DELETE THE PHAKE SERVER. Apparently, from WM5 AKU 2.0 and above, the device goes back to a default sync timetable if you do not explicitly set a server, which is why people claim that the phake server trick no longer works.
PS: I do not have Outlook installed, but it still happens. If I don't keep the fake connection settings up, Async will insist on resyncing (with NOTHING, I might add) every 5 minutes. This is easy to mitigate when the PPC is disconnected - but downright frustrating when I'm trying to update my RSS feeds.
The other method is to delete all profiles on your activesync, and now and forevermore connect your PPC as Guest.
I've searched and searched, but I can't seem to find anyone with this problem.
Basically, I'm trying to get my new Treo 750 to sync over wireless with my Exchange server. I run the Exchange server from my own house, on it's own domain. I've upgraded the Treo 750 to WM6. I previously did not try wireless sync on WM5. My Exchange server is 2003 SP2.
At first, I tried connecting via SSL only to get a message about the certificate not being valid. After fighting and fighting with trying to get the cert on the phone, I finally gave up and disabled SSL on the device in an attempt to connect.... via any means possible.
What I first thought was success has turned into another problem. I know I'm communicating with the server, as the policy from the domain controller made me set a device password. It was at that point that I knew I was getting somewhere. Now, when I hit "sync", I see it checking for changes. At the bottom of the screen, it'll run through each step: Contacts, Calendar, Email and Tasks.
Let me see if I can describe this..... It'll briefly pause at say... 0/80 for my Inbox, then count (very quickly, in large increments) till it hits the 80 and move on to the next item in the synchronization list. This cycle happens every 30 seconds or so.
When I go to look in my Inbox, it's empty. The only thing I see is at the bottom: "Outlook E-mail 0 Items". Same with Contacts, Calendar, etc...
Now here's the kicker. If I send myself a test email from an outside account... say, Gmail, the sync app will then show "Email 0/81", then tick up to 81 and move on to the next item. However, nothing is downloaded. I can pull up a list of all the personalized folders I've created for my mailstore, and they're all there. I can "subscribe" to them, yet they remain empty as well.
I'm completely at a loss. I don't know what else to do at this point, and it's proving to be a difficult thing to search for. Any advice you can give would be very much appreciated....
Well i do not use Direct Push but maybe the guys at Treo 750 forums can help you more, here is the Blueangel WM6 section
Hi
I want to set my THD with Push email rather than the usual send/receive.
But I have a personal email domain hosted by 1&1.com, and when I go to my admin, I can either purchase a Microsoft Exchange license or a 1&1 MailXchange, and both seem to be major collaboration tools for teams of people. I only want for Push for me using my current @arjayweb.net domain. Are there any cheaper options?
My main reason for wanting Push is that I can I currently send/receive every 15 mins, but I've found too many times that emails haven't come through. Sometimes I can watch the 'connecting..' status line and see it go to 'Looking for changes' and then disconnect, but if I manually hit send/receive again, emails come through. If I can solve this, no need for Push..
Any ideas?
hi,on my htc i can change the send/recieve to every 5 mins

i've been using 1&1's Exchange Mail for over a year and am very satisfied with the service. i'm using the Exchange service to push my MSN email, it also allows me to use my MSN account as an alias (e.g., sending/receiving using a different email address). although i haven't searched in great detail, i haven't found a hosted Exchange service that provides the features i want (aliased emails, notes, calendar & task synching), 1 GB of space, push mail, ActiveSync, webmail, etc.
Thanks Cortez - couple of questions though:
- I only want my email to be pushed. Don't need synchronising of any other bits. Did you ever find a service that does just that?
- why do you need Activesynch if you have push?
JonPickles70 - one for you too:
-Not sure if you actually have your send/receive set to every 5 mins, but do you find it always manages to connect and download new mails each time it attempts? Like I said before, I have a problem that my phone attempts to connect every 15 mins, but doesn't list any new messages, but when I manually kick-off, new emails come through. Do you (anyone else?) have this problem
Thanks
