Have owned my Exec for about 6 months now and have had this problem for some time.
Activesynch used to work fine but then I have soft reset the device and Activesynch doesn't want to play any more. It was working before the reset and now it has stopped (no errors in the log or anything - it doesn't even try and follow the schedule).
It also won't 'send outgoing items immediately' even though this box is checked too.
The only thing I have found that fixes it is a soft reset - but maybe only 1 in 10 times resetting will that spark the synch to automatically connect and follow the schedule. And of course I have to wait for a while leaving the device in standby before I find out whether that reset has been the lucky one! Of course that all gets lost if I need to soft reset again.
Is there any bit of magic I can work to actually get the device to follow the schedule?????????
It is an o2 branded device but with CORPORATE user profile - none of that o2 GUI installed.
Is there anything else I can do
try deleting the paired computer from Menu -> options on async (ppc). Repair it, and try again...this fixed it for me!

On my old PC my 8525 connected to XP no problem, than I upgraded to Vista (dual-booted actually) and it just stopped working on both XP and Vista. Now I have a new pc and my problem still remains. I connect my 8525, sometimes the orange light goes on, sometimes it doesn't. When I installed WMDC (newest version) it didn't recognize the 8525 as being connected, so it installed drivers for an unrecognized device or something along those lines. Then sometimes when I connect the 8525 to my pc, it installs drivers for the 8525, and the box that says "enter your passcode" pops up. I enter it, and it'll either say it's wrong ( when it's right ) or the box will disappear and nothing will happen. It just never connects and I really want to put music on it. Any advice is much appreciated.
Edit: I went into ActiveSync on the phone and deleted all the PC's it had partnerships with already.
Read MrVanx's guide. It contains just about everything you'll ever need to know
I tried the guide but it didn't work because in Device Manager nothing shows up... no matter which USB port I put the 8525 in, it doesn't show up anywhere.
delete partnerships off the PC also, and temporarily remove your passcode.
try unchecking the advanced network functionality box in settings/connection/usb to pc
if worst comes to worst, backup stuff on your pocket pc and hard-reset
>>try unchecking the advanced network functionality box in settings/connection/usb to pc
Look for a "Windows Mobile Remote Adapter" in the network section of Device Manager. If you've already tried to connect with the "Advanced Functionality" checkbox checked, then the mobile remote adapter may have gotten installed. Once that happens, changing the "advanced functionality" won't help, and you won't be able to connect your 8525.
You need to unplug the 8525 from USB, then go into device manager and remove the mobile remote adapter, then change the "advanced functionality" checkbox on the 8525, and then connect your device again..
This is what happened to me, and how I finally got it working. Hope it helps you.

There was nothing in Network Adapters or anywhere in Vista about it. I tried removing the password and connecting it without the thing in USB to PC checked off, still no luck. I would back everything up and hard reset but I've seen so many posts by people saying they've hard reset, lost everything; and then they came to realize it still didn't work =(

Isnt that the point of backing up, so that you DONT lose everything?

If you get a trial version of spb backup and do a full one, it does more than just contacts and such, it'll do EVERYTHING, so when you put everything back its exactly the same as when u left it. Programs included.
i have tried several soft resets, hard resets, uninstalling activesync, reinstalling activesync and none of my computors will recognize my mogul. i have checked settings and for the life of me i can't seem to figure whats going on. can anyone please help?
Try this, go to:
Start > Settings > Connections tab > USB to PC
Uncheck "Enable advanced network functionality"
My VX6800 will not connect to Active Synch with this enabled. Hope it helps.

same boat...
i have the same problem. uncked the advance network settings, no go.
have synced before.
now looks like pc doesnt even see ppc plugged in.
wierd cause usb will charge phone but no connection.
One other thing I had noticed on mine during all this was that once the phone was in this state I would have to manually stop Active Sync on the phone and then reconnect to the PC.
try deleting the activesync partnership on the phone (not the pc)
Where do you do that at?

In activesync under menu|options|delete
I don't know if this is relevant to your issue but I had the same problem however, I was connecting my phone to my PC via a USB hub. I connected great the first time and when I tried to connect the second time Active Sync on my PC would not find my phone. What I ended up doing was unplugging my printer from the USB port on my PC and plugging my phone directly into the PC and it found it fine. This also happened with a card reader I have. I guess what I'm trying to say is that if you aren't plugging your phone directly into the USB port on your PC that may be what's causing the problem.
i have looked in the activesync on my mogul and the options isnt bold face print. the options is empty. im at total loss. i call a sprint rep and they said it was the phone.
I had the same problem, it went away when I updated the ROM!
Active sync worked for a about a week, it would not connect so that I could install applications, albeit I could browse the device using the explorer function.
(all of the following failed: deleted active sync profiles, disabled firewall, reinstalled activesync, hard reset and tried to use sprite backup restore (for contacts, which failed))

quinn, how did u flash a new rom if u can't activesync?
Try everything here first:
http://forums.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/ShowPost.aspx?postid=2620369&siteid=65
Then try a hard reset before flashing.
still stuck
i read the microsoft forum and to be honest nothing there helped me. there was another person on there that had the same issue but no one there seemed to resolve it. has anyone found a workable solution? i have read in another forum that i would have to call sprint because it might be an issue with the phone. i would try that venue except my phone has been flashed to cricket. any suggestions?
I had the same problem after spending lotof time trying all the things already posted, I find a solution that worked for me I hope works for you
in your pc go to:
C:\Program Files\Microsoft ActiveSync
then find WCESMgr.exe right click in the mouse and doble click run as
then type your login and you should be able to get back your sync
hope it work sfor you
try this... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=349997
I noticed that on Windows XP you have to uncheck the Enable advanced network functionality. If this does not resolve your problem Try plugging your phone into a different usb port on your computer. If this resolves your issue, You should consider deleting the phone from Device Manager. When you plug it in again it will reinstall the drivers and work.
On vista I have not experienced these issues. You can leave the Advanced network func checked.
Hope this helps,

yo I did this on my mogul and my computer recognized it but as a hardware. IT said something like this:"htcusbplug" i installed it but it still doesnt open up activesync.
@ artenis: im having the exact same problem...wont recognize the device at all, even though it charges fine...(im running alex's wm6.1 beta 2 rom...could wm6.1 have something to do with it?)
i had the exact same issue with my sprint mogul, tired everything, formatted my laptop, reinstalled activesync, hard and soft reset the phone, tried other usb/computers, nothing. luckily i have sprints EPP and just took it to the store for a swap for a new mogul, got a new box and everything.. good luck
Same problem with Vista Ultimate 64bit
I had the same issue with my desktop, but after trying everything I could think of, decided to give Microsoft a try.
The drivers included in the pre-installed version of Windows Mobile Device Center would not allow the computer to recognize the Mogul, so I simply reinstalled the application from here: http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/devicecenter.mspx
Everything works fine now.
Windows Mobile Device Centre and Active Sync Connection Problems – HTC HD2 / LEO
Hi All
Introduction:-
I have been and HTC HD2 and I have been having a lot of problems with the WMDC not connecting.
When it initially got the phone it was SIM locked and branded to T-Mobile. I managed to unlock and de-brand it by flashing the ROM. WMDC /ActiveSync worked fine for a while, then it all went ‘pear shaped ‘ regarding connections and syncing the phone to my PC.
I am not a big fan of cloud computing ie Microsoft My Phone online syncing. I like a bit of privacy, so I wanted to sort out the syncing problem. You also need the phone to sync to a PC for installing *.exe programs. Cloud Computing is not much use for that.
The Problem:-
I have 4 PC’s 1 desktop and 3 laptops. The desktop and one of my laptops are running Windows 7 H/P. The other 2 laptops are running Windows XP.
The problem I had showed up on 3 of my PC’s, so I concluded that the problem had to be with the phone. What was happening was, that when I connected my phone WMDC would start up, and then said no connection, and that was it. The WMDC did not offer any reason or suggestions as to why. On the phone, when I navigated to Start/Tools/ActiveSync. The ActiveSync page would flash up for a split second and revert back to the Start screen, this meant that I couldn’t access the ActiveSync on the phone either.
I tried all the usual suspects, ie reloading WMDC soft resetting the phone, connecting the phone first before starting WMDC, blah!!!, blah!!!, blah!!!.
Solution:-
It was apparent that the only option was a hard reset, however, a hard reset would totally wipe my phone and all my settings that I had spent ages (my wife was not too pleased about the time spent) setting up.
First I, used spb backup.to back up my phone settings. I copied the CAB file onto my to my Micro SD card then loaded the program onto the phone. This was a bit of a blessing in disguise because spb backup also backed up the problem as well.
That said, Sspb backup is absolutely great, because after the hard reset, it restored my phone and all it’s settings exactly to every last detail as far as I can tell. It is a truly amazing bit of software. The backup file is an .exe file which you navigate to via Start/File Explorer/ etc….click on and run as a program. So you don’t have to re-install the original spb backup program first.
You must however tell spb backup to save your backup file onto your flash memory and NOT the phone memory, otherwise it won’t be there after the hard reset. Doh!!
Just to be safe I removed my flash memory card from the phone during the hard reset.
After the Hard Reset but before the ‘Restore’, when I connected my phone to my Windows 7 Laptop, WMDC connected straightaway, the same was true when I connected it to one of my windows laptops. Also I was able to open the ActiveSync page on the phone as well. So the Hard Reset worked. However, when I then did a Restore, the old problem resurfaced . The problem I decided had to be a registry entry somewhere. I then loaded on Resco Registry Editor, using this utility I navigated to HKEY/CurrentUser/Software/Microsoft/ActiveSync. Here, I deleted the 2 Partnership folders keys, do not delete the default key. (Dabble in the Registry at your own risk).
Guess what!!! After deleting these keys and a soft reset, normality was restored WMDC started to work again.
Conclusion:-
Was the hard reset necessary, or was deleting the partnership keys all that was needed? Not sure.
