I have had 3 XDA Execs and two XDA Mini S devices.
I have connected them to a Toshiba laptop running the latest firmware and Windows XP SP2.
I have connected them to a Dell desktop running the latest firmware and Windows 2000 SP4.
In every case, I experienced the following issue - Activesync is unreliable. It will sometimes connect and do a full sync, but more often will fail part way through connecting.
Usually, it will fail to notice that the device has connected at all.
A reboot will usually make the Activesync start to work, but usually the connection is broken before the sync can complete.
I have tried the following:
Disable Windows firewall (no change)
Ensure no other personal firewalls are present (there weren't).
Use ActiveSync 4.1 and 4.0 (no change).
It is now at the point where my current Mini S can't even stay connected long enough to install Microsoft Reader.
3 colleagues with Dell laptops and Minis / Exec devices have also experienced the exact same issue.
Am I really the only one to have expeienced this chronic unreliability issue?
MTU
There are some partially obscure references to the MTU size on the network interface that is created for the Windows Mobile device. Seemingly the default is a whopping 8000 but problems occur with anything over 5000 in practice.
I used DrTCP to identify and set my interfaces to 5000 and this improved stability somewhat but it is still a bit touch and go. Have been too busy to play with winding it down lower but I rather think this would help. I would certainly recommend that you give this a try.
Hope this helps!
Thanks, I'll give that a go. 8000? Usually a TCP/IP MTU is more like 1500... [FX: shakes head]
Usually a TCP/IP MTU is 1492
Hi. I've had problems also with activesync with my XDAII (running WM2005c) and my laptop. I've discovered the problems with synching comes when you're using Outlook 2003 and they usually go away when you use Outlook 2002 or earlier.
Hope that helps.
I am using Dopod838 TC version and Outlook2000 SR-1.
I also experienced some Activesync issue when reconnect to PC after the 1st sync-up(1st sync-up from reset always work). At reconnect and sync, my device go really really really slow, I have to do a reset to fix and sync again.
Upgrade to Activesync 4.1 and take care of the port does not help my case as I can sync once without any issues.
Recently i have installed an application call "Card Expert II" which allows me to switch between USB / Activesync mode. I notes CEII fail to switch to USB mode after disconnect from PC, but after sometimes it do. Then I realize probably something at the background of my PPC is still running which cause this issue.
I try to figure out what in between could help release the sync and at last I figure out if I check the SMS/Email on my today screen and close it again.... Card Expert can switch between USB/Sync mode again. I repeat the same trick and now it can sync without issue ....... Now I am 100% confidence my device will sync again after disconnect from PC.
Now whenever before I connect to PC, I would just click and close the SMS/Email on today screen... It's a bit annoying but this save me from reseting my device each time i try to re-sync up my device. Hope this help.
I have had the same problem with sync., the solution for me is to reboot my PC. So the problem must be there, and I have no clue how to solve it...
My solution is to sync once, then do every other sync via Bluetooth, avoiding the dodgy IP over USB implementation entirely.
Maybe ActiveSync 4.2 will fix it...
Hi,
Has anyone else noticed that the new activesync (wether it is connected or not) eats up 50% processor time???
Weirder still... it will only connect and sync to it one time... after that it won't recognize the machine anymore and you have to reboot.
I don't have this problem.
Active Sync is installed in the computer. I don't think it will affect the ROM on your device, or were you reffering to your computer?. It is just a medium of communication to your computer.

I dont think he meant ROM! After all such communication tool would only function (utilizes CPU) when required, otherwise remains idle! Check your taskmgr…
when syncing mine uses 2%
Hi, yes I meant 50% of processor time of my XP machine.
This is when it is connected and when it is not connected (as seen with taskmanager). obviously something is very wrong. Let's hope the final will be better
Active Sync 4.5 beta
Hi,
There's a beta 2 now!
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...46-f101-4852-96aa-398cb3b54681&DisplayLang=en
Maybe this is better.
Cheers, Leo
btw. I don't Sync My Documents folder, or Email, the only things I Sync are Favoriets, Calendar, Contacts, Tasks and Notes.
Saves important Memory!

Got the same problem with the final version. First connection is ok after disconnecting activesync keeps running (90-99% processor time). Have to reboot the computer to stop it. After reboot it works ok till I connect my exec again and get the same problem.
Used final and beta versions all with the same problem, so no more wm6 for me at the moment. Installed 4.2 again with no problems.
Suggestions anyone
same problems as dutchrhino
I have the same problems as dutchrhino, but it eats nearly 100% CPU usage!!! it's the rapimgr.exe
after that my pc crashes. i reinstalled it twice, but with result of having the same problems...
trying now beta 2 if it is better....
Facing odd problem with Active sync. Works perfectly with my home PC, but very inconsistant with my office PC. Gets disconnected very often and does not allow bluetooth sync even when connected. I have AS 4.5 both at home and office.

Hi all,
I have installed 6.1 Kumara series Final on my O2 xda Atom. I have configured push mail on this and it is working fine for Initial 10/12 minutes.
I have noticed if there is no mail with-in 15 minute or there is not interaction for few minutes then this link goes down. Active Sync shoes "waiting for network" and only reset is option to fix this.
I was able to use for 4/5 hours when I scheduled it after 10 minutes but it consuming more battery.
Some one told me that we can change in registry and reduce the gap in pinging the server
from activesync to make the connection alive.
Can you please help me on this.

Js

Hi everyone.
I always uses GPRS connection for my daily habits continuously connected.
I don’t know why suddenly sometime my msn disconnected & keep asking to retry & same goes with Opera or other Programs related to internet.
Every time I need to restart the hand held to refresh the connection sometimes happens twice a day.
No such problem with TYTN II in the past, I wonder where is the problem?
I have checked all the settings.
Hope someone can help me out.
Dear all,
i was connecting to my PC but suddenly i am not connecting anymore since couple days. what s happening.
Dear ,
I faced The same Problem , I tried to re-install the Microsoft Active sync and it works again , But the Problem is the when u tried to Browse the Internet using your Sync with PC ( ADSL HOME ) the Sync Lost forever , and No way to retain it unless u re-install the active Sync again . do u have a solution for Such issue ?
The only solution i found to this bug was to either restart the device, or delete the touch2 profile you made in your active sync and re-sync it again. I never syncd my contacts or other things like these, so syncing for me wasn't painful.
Even If I did n `t Sync , it loses Connection with PC and I have to re-install it again to retrieve internet Connection
even i did n`t Sync with my PC , i always loses internet Signal and no way to Re-connect unless a new Install for the Active Sync ..
I know this sucks. But i used it like this too. Some weird workarounds i found were:
1: Keep your cellphone standby off. Don't let the light dim down.
2: Don't let your PC switch the monitor off.
3: Don't lock your device.
Mostly i wanted to transfer files. So i used to take the mem-card out and put stuff into and put it back into Touch2. other wise i used to use wifi.
