Am unable to configure/View Exchange GAL on my O2 Xda mini S (Wiza 200).
Any one tried accessing/configuring corporate exchange Global Address List....? There is an option to configure address list in Outlook Email Account but it does not show/display the GAL.
Am using the Original Shipped RoM with below details.
IPL & SPL 1.03
GSM 1.8.10.0
OS 1.1.7.5
Please help.
Interesting post. There is no way to link to the GAL on AUTD v1.0 which is what is shipping on stock Wizards. However, rumors abound concerning this capability in AKU 2. Would anybody using the new iMate ROM that has true push email enabled care to comment on any GAL based enhancements?
I have downloaded the plugin from microsofts web site @ http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/downloads/global/default.mspx and then in the options set it up just like you would your mail account on the phone... mine works great
It works great... Many a Thanks for the link and Help. This has resolved a long pending problem of mine....
This is indeed a greatest of all forums ...
yeah but...
I was hoping this clunky GAL interface would be improved with the MSFP. M$ specifically indicated that there would be GAL based enhancements there. Is the "New Mail" and "New Meeting" applications still our only GAL interface option on AKU2?
far as I could tell
With AKU2, in Contacts you go to Menu and select 'Find Online' to access GAL contacts.
cool I like that much better
Ditto. Is there an improved free/busy meeting scheduler too?

Not that I am aware of.
Downloaded and installed than configured exactly the same as ActiveSync for Push Email and keep getting the error that the server could not be found.
Ideas?
Thanks.
As far as I know, the tool on the MS website is for 2003SE and earlier devices. It is not meant for WM5. It is best to uninstall it and use AKU2 instead.
Mine is WM5... and it works but it is low on features. May be AKU2 may have some more features.
I run an exchange server and I am welcoming pocketpc users that are in need of an exchange account to activesync with. This service also offers Direct Push for those of you that have have this on your PocketPC. As well as the ability to sync all of your contacts, calander events, and task wirelessly onto your Outlook desktop instantly.
NOTICE: Lots of users have been asking if they can have an alias setup so that it looks like they are sending from thier personal email address (ie gmail, hotmail, yahoo ect..) and the answers is YES! With each account you can have an alias setup so that your recipents see your email address as anything you like! In order to keep this service alive, it is asked that you donate $10.00 USD in order to use this Email Alias service. You can use paypal and send the money to [email protected]
Anyone that still needs a Exchange account, I can provide one for them. I will be providing up to 75 or so accounts for free, donations will be and are always appreciated. My constraint right now is how much hard drive space I have. If I can get enough donations for a bigger hard drive I would be able to give out many many more accounts. Also, my service will include Exchange over HTTPS as well if you want to use the server with Outlook on whatever computer you want to. I can provide these settings for people that want the service. Just PM me with the e-mail address you want. Domain is @getztek.com .
So if you like the service and feel that you can contribute, please send paypal payments to [email protected]. If you think you can donate in other ways, please send me an email!
Please submit the information in this format:
First Name:
Last Name or Initial:
E-Mail address requested:
Password:
Also, please give me at least 24 hours to set this up as it is a free service and I do have a job/life. Thanks!
Lastly, I did have this posted in the Wizard forum, but most people don't read both forums and I have more accounts that I can support, hence posting it here as well.
Also, if you want to let me know about something, please repond in the thread, only e-mail / PM your account information.
Hi
I think Im the first to reply, so firstly can I say thanks!
A couple of questions . .
What version of Exchange is this? Any HTML mail support?
How or where do I install the certificate you sent me? I have a mail2web account but that didnt require much setting up but no Outlook access either!
Thanks

It is Exchange 2003. Easiest way to install the certificate is put it on your phone, then tap it. It will run and install itself. Once you do that, just enter your info into Active Sync, easy peezie! The outlook access by itself can be tricky which is why I gave you the link to that tutorial showing you how to set it up. Hope this helps.
Sent you a pm . . .
Rob
Ok, Im now up and running on both my Tytn and Outlook 2003.
So far everything seems to be working just as it should and my initial impression is that its quicker than mail2web. The original sync of contacts and calendar etc seemed to take aout half the time.
All looking really good, what do I do about the email alias thing? Another pm request to Denial?
I will run for another day or so and update, hopefully will be running a new version of WM6 later today )
Thanks a lot DeniaL, this is a generous contribution to the community and I be making a donation shortly.

Sounds good. Glad to hear that you like it. As far as the e-mail alias thing, when you send your donation just include a note saying what your alias'd e-mail should be and I will set it up and send you an email back letting you know when it's finished. Take care!
Just bumping it so more people can get accounts if they want 'em.
Hi
i sent you an email,
Looking forward to working with your Exchange server

Why would someone host their email with some random individual they've never met, and open themselves up to remote wiping? Seems like a pretty big security breach to me...
I mean, you may be totally trustworthy. But you also may not be.

They can choose to trust me or not. I am not in this to screw with people. Just like the majority of this forum, I am just trying to offer a service. You can ask any of the people I offer this service to, I am not trying to screw anyone over.

I sent you an e-mail back. In regard's to your alias, I need to receive the $10 donation through paypal before I set that up. Go ahead and setup your phone, make sure everything is to your liking. As soon as you decide that, let me know and when I receive the $10 I will setup the alias'ing. Take care.
After much hassle, I'm finally up and running, haha. I trust him. I let him remote desktop connect to my computer to setup outlook and he didnt do anything fishy. He's legit and the service seems to work flawlessly once setup. Much recommended to anyone needing good push email/exchange. I will be donating to him once my paypal acct is funded on saturday. cheers on one of the best services yet!

WOOHOO i finally got the same set up configured on one of my home servers!! windows 2003 + exchange server 2003 and i'm golden also got aliases working so now my phone is sending emails as though i'm emailing from gmail, and also synching my work email simultaneously (set up a redirect).

Hi all,
Love the X1 but have a few niggles which bother me on a daily basis:
1. Email Signature
When ever I have reset the phone or lost power for some reason, my signature reverts to the "sent from my x1" signature. Have to change it back each time. Oddly, it only happens to the signature on my Exchange email, the Gmail one I use is not affected. It stays as what I set it as.
2. Reply All
I noticed this one on my crappy Omnia (had 3 in a row, all faulty). Must be a WM6.1 thing... When I am on the To part of the email, I select Reply All and it decides to send me my reply. How stupid!
Has anyone else seen these issues please?
Open the file explorer of your choice. Go to \Windows\Autostart\ or \Windows\Startup\ (depending on your ROM) and delete the file SignatureReplicator.exe, voila, you can now set your own exchange e-mail signature.
Thanks for that!! Brilliant answer.
I assume the Reply all issue just bothers all WM6.1 users and I have to live with it?

Regarding the reply all issues, check out the link below:

Basically it is saying that Messaging does not really know who you are, so to work around that issue, you have to enter your email address for that account.
There are instructions shown in the link.
Hope it helps.
This is really nice to have this stupid little problem fixed, thanks!
Odd - if you set up a new account (I have a gmx account) you don't get these issues... I think it only applies to the default outlook inbox account. My GMX account is a seperate inbox........

Guys,
do you know where to find the html file for a new mail composer in WM6.1...?
Dear all,
I set up an email account (my workplace's) for my jade today. I am able to receive emails. However, sending emails is not possible. I will get an error message sayin that "message cannot be sent... check if there is network coverage..." I use WIFI and i am sure that there is network coverage.
Can someone please advise on the solution?
Thanks.
Delete your account definitions and try again.
Try also to configure a gmail account for example...
Hi, i tried all means i could to no avail... the error message kept poppin out...
i installed the official microsoft hotfix (tried both the msi and cab versions), to my disappointment, it did not work.
i gave up on my company email account and tried my personal yahoomail account. i seemed to have a prob with the username, i tried enterin [email protected] or just simply XXXXXX as the username, but the system did not recognize it and gave an error message.... at the end, ya, i gave up again...
can someone please enlighten me?
i bought this smartphone with the purpose that i can send/receive emails on the go... but this bug is drivin me crazy.
somebody, help... and thanks.
Can U send emails using yahoo mail (or gmail, hotmail) through normal browser ?
For company emails, sometimes a certficate is required (especially outlook). Check with your administrator.
and try to set up the email account with the program http://www.mymobiler.com/ to be very sure not to mistype anything.
af the end, if nothing works, maybe a hard reset can help? be sure to backup contacts and calendar!
Mail
An Yahoo account is html based and if you want to send and recieve, just visit the website. On the other hand if you have an account from your isp you have to configure the pop and smtp server. Just follow the instructions on your Jade
If you are using POP or IMAP looks like your SMTP options are not correct. Check with you email account company
Dear azahidi, DaM79, hadimassa and colonel,
Many thanks for your posts... however, i gave up le... now i use opera browser to send emails...
By the way, will HTC release a Windows Mobile Pro 6.5 update for Jade? If it does, then upgradin to WinMo 6.5 might solve the problem.
I have seen people flashin their PPCs with WinMo 6.5. Is it tough and dangerous? Anyone can share?

did you try to do a hard reset? maybe you have some software installed which blocks the config... dont give up! via opera is not very comfortable, right?
wm6.5, we will see. i think i remember to have read about update possiblities on http://wmpoweruser.com or on http://www.1800pocketpc.com. the general message was, update yes, but it depends - in our case - on HTC if they will release an official update.
hi DaM79,
yes, sendin emails with opera is troublesome...
i actually had tried a hard reset, but the problem persists...
still, i thank you for your help.
winmo 6.5 looks cool... i think i will wait for an official ROM or at least, when a stable and bug-free custom ROM is available.
by the way, i love Jade, it is very useful.
are you using the stock rom? what does htc support say? i mean this cant be possible somehow. i had a wm5 device before, ipaq, and email setup was more difficult but worked.
hi Dam79, i did not consult htc support and i dun think i will. does a stock ROM mean the original ROM that comes with the phone? if so, yes.
Can't send out emails too!
I have EXACTLY the same problem! I can receive emails from my work and from yahoo, but can't send out. The same error message appears and when I try to configure the email settings again, the password saved by my phone is always different than what I originally set. In the end, I also gave up and just used the browser. It would be good, though, if this problem's solved.
I bought my jade from Singapore; maybe it's a ROM problem?
Can't send emails
Is there anybody who has encountered and solved this problem?
Okay, my first thoughts on the Hero.
Good
------
Hardware is lovely. The unit feels just right in the hand, and graphite colour is great.
Screen is very sharp and has excellent colour.
Sense UI is a huge improvement over stock Android is virtually every way.
HTC E-Mail client is great compared to standard cupcake version.
Browser is very fast, and text wrapping is very effective.
Phone is now unlocked and running on Vodafone (thanks to the folks at unlock-now.com). It detects this, and offers to update all my settings accordingly. Nice.
Bad
----
HTC Smart Dialer doesn't correctly display contacts that only have a company name in them. The numbers show up but with 'unknown' next to them. They display properly in the 'People' application, so it's definitely a HTC bug (I seem to remember the same problem with early versions of this dialer on WM).
GMail client won't let me set a 'reply-to' field. I use GMail for all my e-mail, but use a forwarding service (pobox.com) so want to set my reply to field accordingly. I can get the functionality by using the HTC e-mail client, but then I lose HTML mail capability.
GMail and HTC Mail don't integrate in the mail widget. You can only see accounts configured using HTC Mail.
Flash in browser is very hit and miss. Some simply stuff works, but not much.
Standard calendar application is rubbish. The iPhone is way better here. I guess I'll be looking for a third party alternative.
I'll post more as I discover it.
Bagpuss.
Cool, thanks for the quick update.
When you say the standard calendar is rubbish, can you elaberate more on this? I use the calendar quite a bit and was hoping there would be a widget to show tasks/appointments on my home screen.
Any chance of a video going round the calendar or a good detailed explanation of it?
Sorry to ask again, but the reviews say that the phone WILL sync directly with Outlook (not just exchange) and I have ordered one on that understanding. Could you confirm this for me, please? Ta...

Sorry, don't know about this as I don't use Windows or Outlook.
From what I understand, you can sync with Outlook, but you need to use the HTC Sync software. The only problem is that HTC haven't yet made the Hero version available for download. If you go to their support site, they don't have a section for the Hero yet. I'm guessing this will change once the phone is officially released SIM free.

The main problem is that you can't get a month view, and be able to move across days to see what they actually contain. On my E71, you see the month calendar on the left, and a small pane on the right which changes to show the events for each day. On the iPhone, you get something similar, but see the details at the bottom of the screen. On the Hero, you get a full screen month display, but have to click on individual days to see the detail. Not a big thing for some, but it's a change to what I like.
You can go to what they call 'Agenda' view which gives you a long list of all upcoming appointments, but you can't get a week view. There is a day view, however.
There is a calendar widget, and it does show today and tomorrow details, but it's very small.
Hope that helps,
Bagpuss.

Hi I´m newby spanish user.
I just bougth an HTC Hero with orange and I will like to use the phone with movistart => I need to free the phone. Is it the same as unlock the phone? Is a good method unlock using emai? Did you do it at "http://hero.unlock-now.com/sim-unlock-HTC-Hero/"?
A lot of thanks, sorry for my bad english.

Any Speed Issues noticed? Can You give us a brief Comparison to fE iphone 3G, 3GS or maybe TouchHD/Blackstone?
Thanks for the quick little review!
Just a quick couple of questions:
- Im not believing the battery life some have stated as the phone seems to be fully working round the clock
- Can the handset be rotated the other landscape way? So that the trackball is on the left side?

That's exactly were I got it unlocked. They were incredibly fast. I had my unlock code within about 10 minutes of ordering.
Simply insert your foreign SIM, it will prompt you for the unlock code. Enter the code from unlock-now.com, and it all works.

Not sure on the battery life at the moment, as I've not had it long enough to tell.
Sadly, you can't rotate it so the trackball is on the left. It's only a software thing, though, so HTC might implement it in future.

Hi Bagpuss,
I have a question. I have two different gmail addresses that I normally use. Is it possible to have the two accounts setup in the phone? Basically I want to know how it handles two e-mail accounts and two google calendar accounts.
Thanks mate.

yes the sync software for the orange phone is on the micro sd card provided you plug it in go to mass storage mode and then run the .exe I have syncned all my contacts and calendar , unfortunatly you cannot sync any other outlook items this way currently

you set up the reply to address on the Gmail website.
It's in Settings > accounts, and it sends as whatever you have the default email address set to in the 'send mail as' section.

No, you can not be signed in to two Gmail accounts at once. you can set up a second Gmail account in the mail application to access your mail from the second account, but i don't know any way to access calendars from a second account unless you can share calendars between accounts. maybe that will work?
How is the screen outdoors?

Thanks, I think that will do. I can sign in with one of the Gmail accounts and set the other one in the mail application. Regarding the calendars I just noticed that all my google calendars are only in one of the accounts. So I will sign in on the phone with that one and use the other only in the mail application.
The only problem will be moving all my contacts from one account to the other...

I noticed that there was considerable amount of lag for the first hour of using it, but now all the lag is gone and its working amazingly well.
HTC have taken a lot of the ideas from this site and implemented it in the sense ui, Customising the phone is fun and really easy, the only thing I'm unhappy with is being unable to get my Hotmail, and I don't really want it forwarded to my gmail.

Correct me if wrong, but you can always create a new dummy gmail account, forward your mail to that, and set in the gmail website that your 'identity mail address' (from address AND reply-to) is your hotmail address.
that way other people will not notice you use gmail to retrieve it (unless they look in the headers). Thing is you can't manage your hotmail account that way (delete / move / mark as read your mail)

Funnily I got hotmail working through the standard email app, it doesn't push the email but you can set the frequency at which it syncs, so it's good enough.
Also while using the hero i'v noticed that some times the phone doesn't respond after unlocking and it takes a couple of seconds to respond to your touch.
got mine this morning
only just got home to play with it.....
must say it really "feels"like a nice phone....time to play now
hi all to the lucky owners
reading mobile-review and engadget review they say about slowness and sluggyness and lag and devilsh ****ness
