Hi.
Can anyone help me with a scheduled bluetooth sync? Say, every day at 8pm (when I get home from work) and sometime in the morning so I can read my e-mail on the train? Here's what I've done so far:
1. Successfully configured Bluetooth between the MUSICPC and my PDA. I can now go to ActiveSync and select 'Connect via Bluetooth' and it works.
2. Copied the rasbook entry for MUSICPC and put a ' in front of it, so that it appears in the list for "When cradled, sync via..". Set ActiveSync to use 'MUSICPC to sync.
3. Used WakeUp to set repllog.exe to run on a schedule (I also just discovered RunEveryDay, which means I can even make this repeat!)
So, with all this I thought I finally had it, BUT then I got to work and found out my phone now won't sync via USB anymore... I have to go back into ActiveSync and set it back to 'USB Default, which kinds of defeats the purpose of trying to make it all automatic.
I guess my question is, therefore, can I change this setting automatically, or is there a better way to do this? VJBlueSync seemed to do exactly what I wanted, but it is WM2003 only.. Looking on the forum it appears I can do this with a Mort script, but they seem SO complicated.
Help! I am SO close. Thanks.
Mortscript could do that for you, you'd have to write your own script though. It can simulate screen clicks & modify the registry.
My Vario II is set to automatically do a send/receive to check my pop3 email account every 15 mins. This was working fine but suddenly has stopped and no longer checks automatically. I have checked all the settings and they all seem to be correct. It may or may not be linked but I have also been having difficulty getting active sync to work recently. Any ideas?
Thanks
Michael
P.S. I should add that if I manually select send/receive then it works fine, it just won't do it automatically.
I take it you're running WM5. There is an option to do it, but it sounds like you already have it set.
Oh, check your roaming settings. The phone may think you're roaming, on WM6, there's a checkbox under the mailbox settings to download mail even when roaming. I don't have a WM5 to refer to in order to tell you exactly where the setting is.
I must add my related problem to yours, I hope you don't mind. The option doesn't seem to exist at all with WM6. Has anyone been able to set the pop mail to download automatically?
Yes it's WM5. I checked and can't find that anywhere in the menus. All I can think off is that i've installed something then removed the programme and somehow it's changed a setting. Looks like a hard reset is on the cards unless anyone else can help.

You didn't do the "Fake server trick" did you? That sets your Active sync connection to manual. What kind of problems were you having with AS?
Mike
I don't think so, or at least I haven't done that intentionally. Basically active sync won't connect at all anymore to my PC. It's all very frustrating!

Have you found a solution? We are having similar problems on the new Kaiser:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=332362
It sounds like an issue I had. If you are pressing the power button to stand-by the device it will not check your emails automatically for you. This is something that has been fixed in WM6.
To get around this add the "device lock" today screen item and use that instead of stand-by-ing your device.
Thanks. The Kaiser is a WM6, so it may not have been fixed....I will try the device-lock-then-let-it-go-into-standby-by-itself trick to see if this works...

I have the smae problem and I think it hapens beacuse the active sync app is active somtimes. closing the app will terminate the connection...

You can disable ActiveSync by deleting the notifications that start it I believe. To do this, you will need a programm like MemMaid or SKTools. Be sure to have some sort of backup before!
But what's that disconnect thingy? I'm interested in that. It would make it easy to have mails checked every couple of minutes without having GPRS always on (I need to safe battery )

It auto disconnects all data connections if they're idle for 1 minute (actualy if phone is in standby for one minute I think..)
I thing that triggers the active sync is the weather update from spb panel and the web feeds update in the SE panel too (not sure, I tried to test this and had the web feeds autoupdate on 30 mins and i checked if connection was active every five minutes: after the first update the connection did auto dissconnect and after the second it didn't. It was on all the time until I shut it down... (Active sync was active after the second update)
Now I dont use any autoupdate things , beacuse I'm afraid draining the battery if it didn't autodisconnect, is there a way to completly remove active sync? I use only the SDcard data for USB to PC so I dont need active sync..
EDIT:
If you forceably kill the active sync proces the web feeds wont refresh anymore (thats the thing I want refreshing)

are you sure they r ok?
there's 2 options for GPRS when you check through advanced config
Auto attach enabled/disabled
auto disconnect "disable button"/"button"/"button and timer"
When auto attach is enabled, the disable button doesnt work anymore as far as i know
Guys,
Did anyone notice that when you set your appointment to Full Day, it will not appear on the stock Lock Screen, it will only show appointment with Start Time and End Time.
Any solution to that?

Yes it's true........any solution?
Also noticed this... bummer...
I though about contacting HTC for this one, but since the lock screen is a WinMo default, they don't have anything to do with it...
However, maybe there is a reg tweak someone found regarding what to show or not to show on the lock screen?
I think they did that on purpose. To show your next appointment just before it. What they didn't consider is if you have two appointments in a row. The second appointment will show when your second meeting has started, which is too late.
They should consider this:
I have two or three appointments, set as tentative, that are running in the same time. This means, if I understand correctly, that I will basically choose one of them to attend to. However, if I only want to remember which appointments are next (so I'll quickly turnon the screen, the lock screen pop-up up and shows some quick calendar info), I can only see one of them, thus completely forgeting about the rest of them...
Now I'm sure they could have found a better way of doing this!
For some reason, if an all day event was not set via HD2 for example on a web browser, I dont even see an all day event at all in any views (day, week or month).

I'm not quite sure I understand how you set an event in the Web Browser... Are you talking about OWA here? If so, you should check your ActiveSync server configuration settings. Maybe the app. are not downloaded because you chose not to sync them with your server! Or maybe you are using the Peak Time feature, and you've tried to create an appointment outside the peak time: the result is that you'll see the appointment in your phone only after:
1. you manually Send/Receive
2. you wait for the automatical Send/Receive to occur
3. you get into the Peak time
Hope it helps!

Sorry should of made it clearer. I am using Exchange server. I have push enabled, so auto send/receive. If I set an all day event using OWA, this does not show on HD2, if however I set an all day event on the HD2 it shows on both the server and phone. ROM 1.43 was fine, however 1.48 has this bug. I also have a touch pro and Omina 2 which also work fine.

This is what I just did:
- i've created an all day event for today and an event that starts at 11:45 AM, today. Both were synced with my phone, after I've pressed the Sync button in ActiveSync, so this works.
- afterwards, I've created an event that will start on 14:00, and waited for it to be synced with my phone (so NO manual Sync) -> worked like a charm.
- since the two app from above were created using the Office Outlook app. from my laptop, I've now created an app. from OWA, which starts on 12:30. Once again, there it is. I've also created an all-day app. for tomorrow from OWA: worked again!
Could you please detail on what date and which options are selected for you app. that doesn't appear in the phone calendar?
Good luck!

Hi, any other appointments except all day events work fine. All day appointments for either today or any day in the future (if set via OWA) do not show on the calendar on the HD. What ROM are you running, because I didnt have this problem with 1.43 rom only 1.48.

1.48.405.2 (71294) here. I've just deleted the exchange account and tried again. It still wont sync all day events. Bloody annoying. Oh and phone rang and crashed. My patience is being tested!
Uhm...
Phone crashing while calling: that a new one...
As for the sync issue, do you have a second Exchange account you could test? Surely, using a different server.
Also, what version of Exchange do you use?
ok, I've used the search button, found lots of stuff but not what I wanted or unclear. This is what I want: I want my mails from my gmail adress to be pushed to my HTC HD2. I want them to wake up the device and tell me, I have a mail ( like a text basically )
What do I do, what do I set up, I've tried turning on push, but it seems to be turning itself off or something, it doesn't look on when I go to the manager. If anybody can help me, that would be great. Ow, and we're talking 3G or edge, gprs, not wifi here.

There's no push feature that I know of, you set how ofter to check for new email, and in notifications you set how to let you know that you have new email.

Completely wrong.
kilrah is spot on, and it works extremely well. The only thing I would add is that it does add to battery drain, so I would disable it at night and other times it is not required. G-profile can be used for this. By the way, it will not work if you are connected to a computer using Activesync, and that computer does not allow connection to the internet (most work networks are set up this way).
so does this keep the internetconnection open all of the time, even when the phone is asleep? I suppose so?
I'm asking that because, when I put the settings on send and receive every 5 minutes, it appears as if the connection stays on after the first send and receive ( for instance, I check pxInternet and it has been connected for 40min ) and yeah, if that were to be the case, why not use push.
thx for the help so far, really, great and to the point.

Yes of course, otherwise the server would have no way to tell the phone there's something new for it. If you close the data connection in the connection manager it will warn you this also deactivates push.
I've found the idle data usage and battery drain is minimal (at least on 3G). Push on for one night drained 8% battery, which is pretty much the same as without it (~6%). Data usage was under 100kB, and I received 2 mails during the night. Makes great savings, as doing a send/receive on my IMAP account easily uses around 200kB, which would happen every 5 mins or whatever is set for automatic checking, and by extension less traffic = less battery usage...
EDGE might use more battery as there are more keepalive signals.
I agree with Kilrah, I have my calendar, contact and email all synced through google and i don't notice any obvious battery drain compared to when push is turned off.
I use ActiveSync to sync my Gmail account and the push works fine.

Because Google Sync works via ActiveSync, you can adjust the settings for ActiveSync (e.g. only during peak times). So no need to use G-profile.
PUSH mail is avalaible on GMail with HD2. Look here : http://www.google.com/support/mobile/bin/answer.py?answer=138636&topic=14299
can you synch/push more than 1 gmail account with this method?

How do you do that please?
As well as the battery/data aspect I would rather not have my sleep disturbed by the "bings" of new emails!
In activesync, menu -> scheduling.

ActiveSync > Menu > Schedule. And just set Off-peak times to Manually so you won't be disturbed when sleeping
At the bottom click on: "Adjust peak times to fit your schedule"
Sleep well
Thanks Guys!
I have set that up to push my main Gmail account and am using Gudusoft email scheduler to check the other one every 30mins.
Let's see how will it works now!
Sync issues
Anyone having any issues sync'ing with calender.
For some reason the only way I can sync at all is with that one disabled.
Currently I'm only using push with email and contacts only since the other won't work.
Can't believe I didn't know that google offered this service now...yes I just found out today reading this forum...
Been waiting too long for this...
Hello, I have some problems with gmail...
When HD2 turns off (standby), it doesn't sync my emails (haven't tried contacts or calendar yet). When I go to activesync to check what happened there are 2 possibilities:
1) If I am home (wifi always on even in standby mode) I get an error (0x80004004). Btw even with wifi on it still keeps the data connection on (?!?!?)
2) If wifi is off it starts syncing when I open activesync.
Any help would be appreciated
EDIT: Seems like there is no problem when wifi is off after all. I guess having wifi always enabled is a problem because it automatically disables 3g...
