Hi there,
I've got a problem with Active Sync.
I'm using Dutty's Holy grail rom, with HSPL and radio 2.07.
All works fine (except the data connection loss), but it's the second time now that Active Sync can't seem to find my phone. It's says Acitve Sync is unable to connect with the Windows Mobile device.
First time I had to hard reset my phone and it worked again. I'm hoping there is an other way to get my phone connected again with active sync, without a hard reset of my phone, since I've done lots of reg changes and installed lots of programs...
I've re-installed Active Sync, but that wasn't a solution.
Can someone help me please?
Thanx!

I own 128 MB JAM since March 2005 and use it with T-Mobile USA.
In May I installed 1.11.00 WWE upgrade. I had it synchronized with my desktop and laptop and it worked fine for me.
Last week I was on the Business trip and used the JAM only as a phone and a PDA.
When I've got back home I tried to synchronize and charge it as usual.
Synchronization started, but after 25-30 secs it gave me a message within the ActiveSync window "Connected. Synchronization error" and then immediately after that it changed to "Not connected".
I tried again - same result.
Next I tried to synchronize it with my laptop - same story.
After all I tried to delete partnerships and create new - no result. I am able though to connect as a guest.
At that point I decided to try the hard reset. By coincidence that same day I saw the news that ROM 1.13.00 WWE became available. I successfully installed it and tried to ActiveSync without installing the back-up then - no luck, same problem.
As well I'd like to mention that I have HP iPAQ 2215 and I can synchronize it with both computers without any problems.
So it looks like something is wrong with the JAM.
I hope you guys can help me to fix this problem...
Alex,
Had this problem also but my hard reset solved it. Have you tried re-installing Activesync? You may also want to take a look under C:\Documents and Settings\{Your Desktop}\Application Data\Microsoft\ActiveSync\Profiles to check if indeed the profile data was deleted properly. Goodluck!
Yes, I did hard reset, uninstalled the ActiveSync, erased all files in the 'Profiles' folder, disconnnected the cable, rebooted the desktop, downloaded the latest version of AS from the MS website, lnstalled it.
Then installed the AS, connected the cable, and tryed to establish the partnership.
SAME negative result.
It created the partnership and wright after it said 'Connected. Synchronization error' and immediately droped connection.
I am puzzled here...
I'm stumped! Usually a HR solves this for me... Have you tried a Bluetooth sync (this may be a temp workaround til you find the solution) have you tried using a diff USB port and/or cable to sync your device?
bnycastro,
Thanks for your help.
No, I did not try the bluetooth sync yet, but I definitely know that it is my JAM's problem now.
This morning I installed the latest version of ActiveSync available on the MS website on my daughter's PC. ActiveSync was never installed there before.
Then I tried to sync the JAM - same problem as I described in the previous posts. Right after that I paired my HP 2215 and no problem. It work as it supposed to.
It is a real mistery cause between the last time I was able to syncronize the JAM and the time the problem occure I did not install any software, did not pair it with any other PC... I only used it as a phone and a PDA on the trip.
The only what I noticed is that all of a sudden it started to freeze after every 10 -15 min of use. But now after I flashed the ROM to 1.13.00 it works normally except for the syncing problem.
Any other ideas how I can fix it?
I would really appreciate your help...
I'd suggest the Bluetooth sync and maybe taking it (your device) for service.
Hi all.
I had ActiveSync setup back in California on my computer, but now that I am at my parents place and have been trying to setup activesync on there computer to sync with my mda.
I had no problems back in Cali, but now when I load ActiveSync and connect the device, etc. it says that device is not connected and therefore I cannot sync. When I plug the device the computer recongizes that there is a windows mobile device, and ActiveSync tries to connect but with no success.
Does anybody know what I should do to fix this problem? I've searched and haven't really found anything specific to my problems, and I really need to be able to sync my mda for I won't be going back to my computer for a while.
Thanx alot
peter
I'd suspect a firewall issue. Use this guide from Microsoft to troubleshoot ActiveSync 4.0/4.1/4.2 USB Connection Troubleshooting Guide
Good luck!
I've already troubleshooted, and we're talking about the firewall for my internet, right? Because if thats the case I've already disabled the firewall for all of my connections. Would there be other types of firewall that I should be aware of?
*I've tried it on another computer in the house, and I get the same problem. It recongizes a windows mobile device is connected, but it won't pick up the usb connection through activesync.
Thanx again
I am having the EXACT same problem... Does anyone know how to fix it???
Does anyone know how to fix it???

Anymore tips??? I havent been able to sync for 2 weeks now!!!!!!!!!
I am having the same problem with my MDA. My 8125 never had this problem its quite the PITA.
May not help...
You may have already tried all this...
First, don't use Activesync 4.2. Uninstall it, reboot, and install 4.1. I couldn't get sync with two PCs with 4.2. Removing it is a nuisance since it starts automatically and doesn't have an off selection; I use activesynctoggle.exe to turn it off. I keep activesync around since activesync problems sometimes can be fixed by turning it off and on again.
Second, if you are running zonealarm or another firewall, the procedure for permitting sync is more complicated; see e.g.
http://www.pocketpcfaq.com/raj/ZA.html
Third, remove the connection from the PC (on activesync, File/Remove Connections) and from the PPC (run activesync when not connected and remove), remove activesync from the PC and reinstall, and start fresh. Use a USB cable and don't mess with Bluetooth -- it is *much* more sensitive, as I found out painfully.
Good luck. It is really amazing that microsoft can't make software that syncs two microsoft operating systems, when Palm can make software that syncs windows with the palm OS reliably. Activesync is one of the worst programs I have ever encountered, and the release of 4.2, which seems to work less well than 4.1, is astounding.
Well my device stopped recognizinig my sim car yesterday so my device is worthless.
DOES ANYONE KNOW ANYTHING THAT CAN HELP!!!!?!?!?! I HAVENT SYNCED IN 25 DAYS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!!!!
A little more info please. Saying you have the exact same problem isn't enough! (trust me, no two people or computers have the same problems, exactly)
Please post what you're doing, AS version, ROM version... actually anything that might help us possibly help you.
When I connect my 8125 to my computer activesync doesnt recognize it on the computer or the pocket pc. But yet it still makes the chime noise. Im am still able to charge it on my computer, but activesync says "no connection"
ROM version 2.25.11.1 WWE
ROM date: 5/11/06
Radio version 02.25.11
Protocol version 4.1.13.12
ExtROM version 2.25.11.102
Did you even try the suggestions I made?

I have had a similar problem and solved it with those procedures. Activesync is unreasonably sensitive and sometimes removing the program and connection and starting over seems necessary; then it will work until some setting or other gets messed up.
I'm having a similar issue but when I connect my T-Mobile Vario II (HTC Hermes) it starts the process but as soon as it's about to start syncing my PC reboots. I've just got a new laptop and it syncs fine. I've been using ActiveSync for many years and this is the first time I've had this issue. I've also got an Orange SPV C500 (can't remember which HTC device that is) but it's a smartphone and it still syncs fine.
I don't have any software firewall enabled as I'm behind a hardware one. I've looked round the web but no-one seems to have this issue that the system reboots.
Any ideas? I've re-installed ActiveSync, I've not tried removing the partnerships off the device yet but I don't think it's even created on. I've tried repairing Outlook but that didn't help. I may try re-installing Outlook but that is a bit of a last resort.
Thanks in advance,
Rob.
I also had a no connection when I first connect to new computer....
Check the network connections, there should be a new network connection created for the computer/pda, check the properties and make sure all checkboxes are selected.
Mine wasn't ticked in the beginning, and was able to sync after I selected all the boxes...

Windows XP has an event viewer (Control Panel/Administrative Tools/Event Viewer) that can probably tell you what took down your system. That would help isolate the problem - maybe.
Nothing so far... Does anyone else have any tips...
Hi there,
Over the last few weeks I have had a problem syncing mu phone, I am able to connect and browse and install software via my PC but it refuses to sync, it starts good by saying that it is looking for changes, then it asks me if I want to combine, overwrite and so on and then after I make my selection it simply says 'Synchronization Error' and remains connected but that is it.
I have tried upgrading and downgrading activesync and my ROM, but what ever I do I get the same result, I have tried on another computer also and still the same.
Please help me as I am going mad, it is not quite a brick, bu is not far from it if I can not get my information on to it.
Cheers
Update
After going back anf forth with versions, I managed to do one full sync ( thank God, now I have my data back at least). but now again, it is failing,WHY ? connection exists, browse and so on works, only the sync does not work.
Do you have bluetooth?
I has a similar problem, I setup a sync profile with my PC via bluetooth and synchronised it through BT. After plugging in the cable afterwards my Syncing was fine...
worth a try
syncing problems
I had the same problem but I seemed to work through it by removing the Mobile Sync 4.5 and re-installing it. It looks like it's not working, but after the install bar goes about half way, everything is on, including the calendar and the Outlook Database. Good luck!
Hey fellas, i´m facing some trouble to sync my trinity.
last sunday i´ve formated my notebook (after two years of use, it was a bit "heavy") and everything went well.
However, only yeasterday i had time to install microsoft outlook and activesync but when i tried to sync my P3600 some kind of error ocurred and both the devices (notebook and ppc) says "Attention Required".
I did reinstall the active sync, but the issue is still there.
I really don´t know what to do. Can someone help me out?
Thanks
Antonio

don't know how or why, but 15 min ago i was trying to sync it with my office's computer and it worked.
now i came home to have my lunch, and it's working now...
I had this occur yesterday on my office and home PC. The PPC would connect via active sync, and files can be browes etc, but it will not sync with outlook. It just stays on 'looking for changes'
The only change I made was installing a trial of Spb Wallet - the PPC sync'd before the install but not afterwards.
I have uninstalled the trial, but the PPC still wont sync
Hi,
I have researched in the forum in order to find some issue similar than mine but unfortunally I couldn't .
I bought my Blackstone at the end of December and since that, everything worked fine: I used to sincronize data with activesync at home (Windows Vista) and in the office (Windows XP), connected the device to the internet, downloaded e-mails (using outlook or Seven Mail), used GPS (Destinator and Igo8). Everything was fine until the day I decided to perform a hard reset. Then the nighmare comes! After the hard reset I started the sincronization with activesync. Everything sincronized very well. However, when I configured my e-mail accounts the tmail.exe hanged. Also the activesync stopped sincronizing. It stays all the time with the message: "looking for changes"...but never starts sincronizing. Then, I tried to perform another hard reset. The same thing happened: the first sincro is fine (in Windows XP or Windows Vista). But then, if I configure e-mail accounts or if I reinstall GPS programs, the activesync hangs again. I can only sincro with activesync if I don't use any other connection application. If I´m using GPS application and GPRS starts, immediately GPS hangs. Is that possible? I performed probably 10-12 hard resets, reinstalled activesync 3-4 times, but the problem keeps unsolved. Anyone have a clue for this issue?

Hi olivas1971 and welcome to the forum.
Your problem does sound strange & unusual. It sound as if you might need to flash another radio or ROM or both. But for that you will need to use hardspl on your device first (preferably from XP as it has less problems).
Use the search function and readup WELL before you start. Good luck with it.
Hi Abram,
I have flashed my device with new ROM and radio as you suggested. My device seems to be fine again. I´ll be monitoring it during this week. However, I want to thank you in advance, because I´m sure you find the solution.
brgds.
