When I am checking Taskbar to close down apps I always seem to find ActiveSync there.
I thought this was only for syncing with pc [or MS Myphone which I don't think I have set up yet ]
Why does it keep restarting and how can I check/change its settings on the phone please?
Just trying to find a way to lessen battery drain

For some strange reason, Activesync keeps running on my XDA Mini S, I have no idea why can anyone help?
Basically after a soft reset if I check the memory no programs are running, but after sometime if I have done nothing with the phone, and check, it is running again, I close it down and then again after a while it is there.
This is not whilst or after connecting to my PC it is strange...
Is it because u have a wifi connection over which is constantly trying to sync with your pc?
Believe this is a known bug (sure I've seen something mentioned on here before)
try a search over this forum
Can't find anything in previous posts...
I mean the only thing my phone syncs is my desktop...it is not set up for any other sync, except for USB..no schedule nothing, so why activsync keeps launching is a mystery to me...
Any further help will be much appreciated...
Are you using any weather plugins etc? Anything that might request a remote sync? Use something like memmaid to check your services to see if you've got anything hidden like this.

Nothing at all...
Will try to see what is going on with memmaid
I also have the same thing happening. It only syncs over usb but as someone said must be when I connect over wifi its kicking in.
Thing is when I shut it down my wizard seems to show a better turn of speed. Wish I could get it to stop trying to connect only when hooked with usb to be honest. The less programs running the speedier the wizard will be.
Creat a dummy server sync in activesync. Put anything as server address and that shd be fine. Ignore unresolved .... message after syncing.

MemMaid has done it...I think...
Thanks to Vijay555 for suggesting using MemMaid.
Checking the running PROCESSES on MemMaid I found something called repllog.exe which I deleted and it stopped the ActiveSync running.
Then I did a soft reset and synced. The file is back where it should be but no unexpected incidences of ActiveSync running. I guess the repllog.exe file had become corrupted.
Be warned that the unit might seem to run a little slower after the soft reset, but within a few clicks it is back to normal.
Thanks for your time & help guys
Create a fake new ActiveSync connection. I say fake because you just need to make up the server name... put anything you want there. After you have created the connection, look at the scheduling options and make sure that it is not set to automatically synch. Once you have disabled automatic synching, you can remove that fake connection and your problem will be solved. I found this on www.pdaphonehome.com .

replog should know what it's doing. Glad it sorted your problem out though!

Not so cured...
OK it now only kicks in every 4-5 hours so I will try the fake server route...

Just tried that and hopefully it works. Active really does seem to be one of the main reasons the Wizard slows up.
When you have synced with a pc ie to install a program ( only reason I use AS ) will I then have to close the app down on my wizard in running programs or will it dissapear itself and not return ?
The fake server technique works by not starting ActiveSync on its own. However, if you start it in order to sync via bluetooth/usb, you will still have to manually end task it in order to close it again. The good thing is that you won't have to worry about it starting by itself, which will save you both memory and processing power, as well as the fact that you don't have to install any third-party tools for this solution.
Good stuff. I could always tell when it was running by the speed of my Wizard. Another gr8 tip.
Just got my HD and one thing I have noticed is active sync seems to be trying (every few minutes) to make a connection to/synching with something as I noticed upon checking the "quick menu" in the top right hand corner that Active Sync is listed in the quick menu, if I then close it by clicking the "x" it clears from the list. I then check it again a few minutes later and it's back in the quick menu again??
So it seems to keep opening up and running in the background, for some reason, is this "how it is" or is there a way to stop this?
I haven't setup active sync to connect/sync with anything it’s just as it came out the box?
Any help appreciated, not really a problem as such but not really much point in it continually trying to sync when it has nothing to sync with??
I'havent received my HTC HD yet, but on my FSC loox N560 PDA the situation with ActiveSync is the same. It always opens in the background no matter how many times you shut it down. Unfortunately I think that's just the way it is...
Hi.
I'm using nX1i v1.04 [SuperLiteSpeed][UC][WWE][R2A-R3A] (28.03.2009) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=478022

But Now I have a big problem for me:
I installed the cab for GPRS 1 Minute autodisconnect, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=268397 I'm looked at the registry and all values are OK, But my Xperia Don't disconnect after the idle specified time.
I searched all XDA forum, the web and i can´t find the right answer
Any bodie knows a solution for this??
Pleas Help.
I have the smae problem and I think it hapens beacuse the active sync app is active somtimes. closing the app will terminate the connection...
The problem is I cant disable active sync since there isnt a *.ink file in the startup folder...

You can disable ActiveSync by deleting the notifications that start it I believe. To do this, you will need a programm like MemMaid or SKTools. Be sure to have some sort of backup before!
But what's that disconnect thingy? I'm interested in that. It would make it easy to have mails checked every couple of minutes without having GPRS always on (I need to safe battery )

It auto disconnects all data connections if they're idle for 1 minute (actualy if phone is in standby for one minute I think..)
I thing that triggers the active sync is the weather update from spb panel and the web feeds update in the SE panel too (not sure, I tried to test this and had the web feeds autoupdate on 30 mins and i checked if connection was active every five minutes: after the first update the connection did auto dissconnect and after the second it didn't. It was on all the time until I shut it down... (Active sync was active after the second update)
Now I dont use any autoupdate things , beacuse I'm afraid draining the battery if it didn't autodisconnect, is there a way to completly remove active sync? I use only the SDcard data for USB to PC so I dont need active sync..
EDIT:
If you forceably kill the active sync proces the web feeds wont refresh anymore (thats the thing I want refreshing)

are you sure they r ok?
there's 2 options for GPRS when you check through advanced config
Auto attach enabled/disabled
auto disconnect "disable button"/"button"/"button and timer"
When auto attach is enabled, the disable button doesnt work anymore as far as i know
I can't seem to find any way for the clock to auto-update itself to keep it accurate!
There doesn't seem to be any option unless I've missed it..
Does anyone know how to do this?
try "SmartTimeSync 1.1"
but is there any way without having to install a seperate program?
Activesync syncs the time too... you don't need any if you sync with your pc often.
perhaps you listen to radio from time to time?
PowerRadio has an option to sync via RDS (if I remember right - have not used it in some time)
also there are many tools to sync via timeserver or gps...
I have to agree with the OP. Why isn't there a way to sync time natively on the phone? All of my other phones do.
As already said, clock is automatically synchronized when device is connected to a PC via Activesync or WMDC. In Activesync it is enabled by default but can be disabled in Options. I personally use GPS2Blue to get date&time from GPS sats..no need for a connection nor a pc,easy.
Hello,
For some strange reason, the active sync program always starts up in the background. When I open my taskmanager after a while, it is there again.
I close it and after a while it reopens again and runs in the background.
My device started doing this since last week.... Can't find anything that might cause this since my active sync connection is set to manual, so no auto checking for mail, agenda sync etc...
Does anyone know what might be the cause of this active sync launching itselve after an amount of time?
Thank you
