Active Sync Starts Unnecessarily

I dont' know if anybody has noticed this. After going thorugh Start / Settings / System Tab / Memory / running programs tab I stop all running progrrams. After sometimes I go to this place again and I find Active Sync as a running application even though I have not started it.
This did not happen on my old pda2k. Why does it happen on the universal JJ. Though it does not matter but yet it is taking some useful RAM and more so my urge to know why does it happen.
I will appreicate your views
Regards

I had this problem too
It is a pain in the ass as this causes skype not work with me. No solution yet.

Same here. I hope they fix things like this in Rom updates.

Try putting in dummy exchange server settings, disable all scheduled updates. That should stop AS autostarting.

Hi Efjay. Remember me? Anyway.. :? can you tell me/us how to go about doing this please :roll: grovel, grovel!
Meanwhile, glad I was wrong about you! :lol:

Not to worry. Sussed it. Thanks for the tip though! :lol:

mackaby007, np glad you got it working, was at work and didn't see your reply til now on the way home. One-handed WM5 rocks.

Hi Efjay and All.
I'm not sure if this is related or not, but I had some problems whereby Active sync stopped working for me alltogether. Decided to download and install the unofficial 4.1 version of Activesync in conjunction with Magicbutton (and disabled the 'close' feature of Spb pocket plus 3) and presto, I'm no longer getting Activesync running in the background and all aplications close as they should!
If anyone is still experiencing problems in this area, give this a try and please post your experience back here.
Yeah your right Efjay, one handed operation in WM 5 rocks , but I'm still struggling to put the stylus down (I've become so used it, it's a new learning curve for me).

That's what you think
Try turning on wifi, and AS will come right back. I tried your solution and no luck. I tried faking the server and changing the schedule otpion, no luck, it just lives on....

No more annoying Activesync!!
Hi All. Just to report back, I,ve not had the recurring problem with Activesync poppin back anymore, at all, whatsoever!
Mikee: I tried as you said, and used wi-fi to surf the web, then watched a 2 hour movie on the JAsJar, then reconnected the wi-fi and listened to Resco Radio for 15 minutes, then checked memory status under settings. Nothing. No Activesync and nothing else running in memory. for me at least, the problem is gone and I'm not using any dummy server settings either! I'm typing this from the JasJar now and as we speak....just checked memory again. Nothing.
I don't know what to say, but I know you've had this problem a while now and all I can think is that it's either the software you have installed (possibly need a clean re-install of Activesync 4.1) like skype, which I uninstalled the minute I got my JasJar, or your Radio ROM update, which I have not done either.
Anyway, sorry I can't be of any more help to you, but please post your findings here if you snag the culprit.

For yor reference:
i-mate JasJar
ROM version: 1.12.38 WWE
ROM date: 08/24/05
Radio version: 1.03.00
Protocol version: 42.36.P8
ExtROM version: 1.12.120 WWE

Hello All,
I don't think this problem is specfic to the JasJar, as I have the very same problem on my PDA2K. This only started happening after I upgraded to the windows of OS. So, I think it's more to do with W05 and or activesyne 04 which is needed to run W05. I have also found that this happen befor I even installed any apps on system, and I never had Skype so that can be ruled out as the culprit. Anyway, still trying to solve this bug, Have not recieved my Universal as yet...I'm waiting for the o2 version :shock: Think the black rocks! Until then I have been keeping my eye on all the help from this section of the site...Just my 2cents

Wizard Tmobile Wifi

Hi everyone. I just bought the new Tmob MDA yesterday and have been tooling around tryin to figure the wifi thing out.
When i bought it from the store the salesperson said that the Wifi is only active when you have the Data plan activated..... Which kind of doesnt make sense. I understand the PRS side of it but not the Wifi side....
I downloaded the CABs and registry entries and all that good stuff, with no luck.
The latest thin I tried in order to connect to a network is install WoFo companion from Socket.
HERES THE CATCH!!!! The socket apprecognizes networx in the area, but the WM2005 doesnt allow it to connect. When you say connect the WM2005 Available Networx page is blank.
Can anyone help? I really need wifi on this machine....
thank you for listening.

Yes wifi should work out of the box to - b networks. Saleperson is wrong - that only applies to gprs as you said.
What reg tweaks and cabs did you install? that should be unnecessary unless you want to logon to g networks.
Try the registry wizard that will tweak for g and show wifi plugin on the today screen. http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=39725
use latest version r.

One thing it might be worth looking at is downloading and installing the latest T-mobile rom. My wizard refused to connect to my secured wireless network, unless I removed all security and made it completely open ( like that's a good thing to do in this day and age) Installed the latest ROM update, and I could connect a lot more easily.
After you get used to your wizard, I can heartily recommend installing the K-Jam rom, it seems a lot faster.

thx
thx for you replies guys. i just flashed the rom to the latest k-jam.
i knda prefer no to have any tmobile branding anyways.
everythingn worx fine now.

its v0.91...of wifirouter(not wififum)..it wasn't uploaded by me though...
Also, some advice..during the summer you may want to use a Fan specifically for your phone or it will overheat.

Perfect, thanx

While using the router, keeping the keyboard out will help dissipate the heat too.

what about ICS control, how can I make my phone a router using ICS Control 2.1?

Beats me? I wonder

Hi, thanks for response

question...do you have the problem that the x1's bluetooth is turning off randomly?

yes I have had the bluetooth problem and also my email signature keeps going back to the default one which is annoying.

Same problem
I have exactly the same problem. The bluetooth connection gets lost. And sometimes my phone has according to the HCB-700 an empty callers list.

This problem seems to have gone away since the rom update that is floating around as I had it until I put on Jack's 2.4 rom easily available on this forum.

problem with HCB 700 and X1
I have same problem of bluetooth turning off randomly and disconnecting from the HCB 700. This is so annoying.. what should I install? Please advise.

The rom update!!!!!!!!

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Could you please tell me how to do it and which one to use and where can i find it? Do i need to backup all the data on the device?

Switch to the rom development forum and choose a rom. Follow the instructions to install for one of the unofficial (but better) roms.
In certain countries you can get official updates from SE too.
Yes you will need to backup your data unless you keep it on a storage card as I do.

Recuring XV-6800 issues (keyboard, resetting)

I thought I knew the meaning of "a love/hate relationship" until I got the Verizon XV-6800. I love having a syncing calendar & contact list, Office Mobile, WiFi tethering with WMwifiRouter, & all of the other software available for the Windows Mobile OS. Unfortunately I hate the durability of the phone. It seems it can't even stand up to daily use. I'm now on my sixth replacement which I've had for 5 weeks now. Suddenly it's having the same problem the 2 phones prior to this one had; dropping keys, not responding to input (keyboard or on screen,) & randomly resetting upon hitting the power button.
I'm posting this here not just to complain somewhere, but more to see if anyone has had any similar issues or has any recommendations. I doubt these problems are the hardware, so I'm starting to wonder if anyone may have dealt with similar problems by flashing a new rom. I've considered it for GPS functionality, but if it would solve these issues then I'd definitely be all for it.

It is likely a hardware problem. The mogul a becoming way outdated. I would upgrade if you dont have gps abilities. I would think that means you have WM 6.0 is is old itself. What is your carrier. Please update it in your profile so help is easier to come by.

Alright, updated that. I'm with Verizon. It's really annoying to watch them lock down GPS on their phones, only to change their mind, and open it up on other phones just leaving XV-6800 users hanging.

Gps is easy to get going if you have a data package. Not as easy if you don't have one. I can help you get gps if you need it. Also what is your rom version under device information.

Ya, I've got the data package, and I've had GPS in the past using Valhalla (until VZW shut it down.) I'd love to have it back! It looks like I'm running 5.2.19212 (Build 19212.1.0.3)

If you had vahalla before then you have MR1/2 then it is easy. Just install the serf cab for vahalla then *22899 and gps works again. This assumes you have vahalla already installed. If not reinstall vahalla first then *22899. Then serf cab then *22899. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=3555579&postcount=703
Let me know how it works.

As I said in my initial post, I've replaced this phone many times. The last phone that ran GPS was maybe 3 devices back. At the time I had flashed that to MR1 & windows 6.1. Since then each replacement phone has come to me with WM6 loaded. My current one says 6.1, is it a fair assumption that this has MR1? I guess I need to reinstall the Valhalla stuff as you mentioned. I'm going to get started on that process. Where's the best place to find the Valhalla cab to get started?

If you see under rom version:3.57.605.1 or 3.57.605.2 then you have MR1 or MR2. You are then ok to install the vahalla cab the serf cab using *22899 after each install.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2936378&postcount=17

Ok, I'm using 3.57.605.2. I did install as you said; Valhalla, *22899, Serf, *22899, check location settings, check for active data connection. All successful, but no fix. Any suggestions? (I've been reading some other posts, and I'm afraid I'm running into the same problems.) Are there additional steps I need to be following?

I suggest you use HTC gps tool or gps viewer to check your lock status. Do you see any satellites come up under satellite view? Are you outside or near a window? And your location is turned on from 911 only correct?

No, it's still not getting a fix. Location is on, and the data connection is active. Still nothing. Are there any other steps I should try. I was reading some additional steps on the wiki...
I see that your running DCD 3.3.4 & 3.42.40. Since I've got this keyboard issue as well might that be another way to fix the GPS issue and simultaneously also the keyboard issue?

A new rom wont fix a bad keyboard. I suggest a hard reset and then install vahalla, then serf, then gps software. Then checking for lock. I have done this before so I know it works. Just for kicks try the vahalla cab attached because the link I provided could be different. I couldnt find a link for my version. Also I will ask again did you see any satellites under the satellite view for either gps software(blinking red dots).

The keyboard works fine at times; right now for example... I think the problem is software based. I'm just looking for a really clear how to on the flashing process.
I'll try working with the Valhalla cab you supplied, as I'm not sure if the version I used was the correct version. I know there's no uninstall for the valhalla cab, are ther certain files I should delete or just install over the old one?

Ok first i doubt it is software issue. Second why not just get another replacement handset, they are free. I dont know if installing the other vahalla over will work. That is why I suggested a hard reset. But if you dont want to do that now just get a another replacement and start with them on it.
