Can anyone help please?
I cannot get my xda mini to sync. Basically it just keeps running and nothing happens.
I have researched a lot of threads which refer to setting up a dummy server connection for what I presume is the the "exchange server" which I have attempted - is this a false IP address please?
On my PC, activesync diplays Exchange Server and my XDA with a list of the sync items below.
I keep getting a message on the XDA saying it cannot retrieve an IP address for the connection. Sometimes when I sync the try to connect via GPRS
I do have a wifi connection set up which now works (most of the time).
TIA.
I have the same problem as you with my QTEK 9100. Sometimes it works to connect the device to my portable computer (Compaq Presario 2800) via ActiveSync but mostly it does not. ActiveSync just keep looking for the device but doesnt find it.
I have also tried after that I have turned off the firewall and antivirus software, but it still doesnt work. The few (2-3 times) that it did work I had my firewall and antivirus running.
Anyone have an idea what I should do? It's a brand new QTEK 9100 (just got it a few days ago) with ROM 1.3.7.13 SVE, ROM date 9/29/05. Since I can't connect my device to the computer I can't upgrade the ROM.
turn off your firewall
disable your onboar intell wifi card if you have one
Does this happen to your device when you connect to Activesync immediatly after soft-resetting the device?
I have a similar problem, but I have no problems when I connect to AS for the first time, if I try connecting again before performing a Soft-reset AS won't find the device and the device becomes unasable, only soft-reset solves this problem.
Anyone else with these symptoms?

thanks but as I said I have turned off the firewall, and I don't have a built in wifi card in the laptop.

Yes it is the same problem no matter of the soft reboots. The only times I get it to work is when I have reinstalled the activesync 4.1 software on my laptop, after a reboot (of the laptop) it does not work; instead it only display a network icon with "Limited or no connectivity" (this is also without both firewall and antivirus installed) when I connect the device. The result is that AS can't find the device...
My theory is that it somehow looses the USB drivers installed with ActiveSync 4.1 when I reboot the computer. Anyone know how to fix this? Which (dll?) files belong to the USB drivers? I might be able to manually replace them in the correct path if I find that out...
any news??? I just met the same problem
simple enuf chaps...
i just met the same problem and the fix is pretty simple...
remove a/s 4.1
re-install a/s 3.7 / 3.8.1
re-establish the partnership
re-install 4.1
How do you get a connection between a WM5 device and ActiveSync 3.7 or 3.8?
I cannot get a partnership.
Is this because a WM5 uses IP-protocol for the connection?
thanks

I am using Dopod 838, the asia version of Qtek9100.
I also seems to have problem on activesync 4.1 which keep on sync and fail to connect. When it fail. I will try
1) In Windows Task Manager, kill wcescomm.exe
2) Kill everything in wizard
3) manually turn-on activesync4.1 on pc again.
4) connect wizard with PC again..
I just bought my phone for 2 days and i have to try a few more times to confirm it really helps.. may be you can give it a try too.

you will need AS 4.0 and above for all WM5 devices
You might want to check device manager when your device is hooked up via USB and make sure there are no exclamation marks on your handheld device.
I have a laptop and I only installed ActiveSync 4.1 and it works fine. I've even re-imaged my laptop since getting the phone and wasn't a problem second time around. I also installed 4.1 on my work PC and it works fine there too.
Not sure if you can use anything older than 4.0. (Not sure the reasons why)
At work I tried to use 3.8 (Just for the hell of it) but 4.0 updates all the USB drivers and stuff. Anything below 4.0 will not recognize WM 5.0 devices as jfran said. After installing 4.x I don't know the reason or need to uninstall then install something older then uninstall and reinstall 4.x.
It should work straight after install. However I do NOT know what happens if by chance you had an older version of ActiveSync then tried upgrading to 4.x. Should work though. I know people have had success upgrading from 3.7 and 3.8 to 4.1 to use the newer Dell Axim x51v which have WM 5.0 here in my environment.
Thanks everybody for your replies,
it was after hamish_dy tip I wanted to know how to get an connection between AS3.x and a WM5 device, since I haven't been able to do so. And I also have read that WM5 needs AS 4.x in order to sync.
Have had my Qtek9100 now for a week, and have been studied this forum in detail for a solution on my problem.
Previously I had a Qtek S100 which synced with my laptop together with AS 3.8. My company uses Groupwise as e-mail system, but with Outlook 2002 also installed on laptop I got it working (also after some days of trial).
Now with my Qtek9100 nothing happends when I plug in the USB-cable. Well not true, it will connect with an IP-address and I can from AS see the filestructure on my Qtek, BUT nothing starts syncing (calendar, contacts, e-mails,etc.). I watch task-manager but nothing kicks in. Previously with my S100, mapisp32.exe always kicked in and was the magic component between outlook and groupwise. With AS 4.1 everything is dead in task-mgr. I also receive the 85010014-error message sometimes.
Have uninstalled AS 4.1 several times, cleaned out registry of AS keys, rebooted, installed AS again, reinstalled outlook, turned firewall off, turned antivirus off, soft-reseted my qtek, and so on. Have downloaded the swedish version of AS 4.1, since my Qtek has swedish language, and thought that was the reason. But no. Soon out of options and ready to take my new qtek back to the dealer.
Any help from anyone is very much appreciated.
thx in advance.

One thing you should try before sending your device in is to try sycnching up on a clean machine, i.e. (a freshly imaged machine)
I'm assuming initiating a manual sync does nothing?

No, manual sync does nothing.
If I can't find any solution before mid-next-week, I will find a workstation at work and load only the minimal components/applications needed and try to nail down the issue, as a last try. I work with IT myself so I'm not keen to reimage my laptop, there are just too many things to reinstall.
thanks for the advice!

Active Sync Sync via USB Resolved (well for me anyway)
Over the last month I have not been able to sync my Wizard to my laptop via USB. Via bluetooth worked a treat, but I was not able to upgrade ROM via btooth.
This morning, completely by accident I resolved the issue with USB sync'ing to Active sync 4.1.
This works for me:
1. Connect Wizard to laptop via USB (you will get the usual problem, with ActiveSync saying "Connecting" and nothing else
2. Whilst phone is still connected via USB perform soft reset on phone
3. The laptop system tray should display "Found new USB device" and then say "Pocket PC USB Sync found"
4. When the laptop / pc has finished installing software and displays "Your new hardware is installed and ready to use" Disconnect the USB cable from your Wizard.
5. Wait a couple of seconds and then reconnect your Wizard via USB and hopefully it will work.
Please let me know if this works for anyone else!
One more thing you could try before throwing it back at the salesman is to check your network connections.
Go to Control Panel and select network connections - make sure you are set to view details and look for the "Local Area Connection" that has a description of "Windows Mobile-based Device". On mine it is "Local Area Connection 3". You may have to scroll to the right to see the description.
Right click the relevant connection and then click "properties". Make sure that the following entries ONLY have a tick next to them.
Client for Microsoft Networks
File and Printer Sharing for Microsoft Networks
Internet Protocol (TCP/IP)
For some reason on mine none of them were initially selected :?
Click OK, when I did this it started syncing straight away!
Good luck!
I am also having a problem with activesync 4.1, up until now i have been able to sync perfectly via bluetooth or usb. However now when i try and sync activesync on my PC says connecting and nothing happens!!
I have tried everything, uninstalled, reinstalled, installed on my laptop (same problem)....
Given i have the same problem on 2 different PC's i am starting to think that its actually the Mini S and not the PC thats the problem. I feel a hard reset coming.............

Hard reset has done the trick, so it turns out all problems may not be down to our pc's......
The same thing happens for me sometimes. What I have found ou this helps.
Unplug pda from sync cable. Kill all active programs on the pda. Plug in sync cable again. Viola! It syncs.
I have the same trouble, activesync just says connecting and thats it, i havent found any particular reason for it. SR does not help, just HR which is kind of overkill. Im really glad for the sprite backup software. I have tried all different things i could think of while i couldnt sync and nothing helped. I have allready about 3 HR after me.
I have a MDA Compact (magician) (ignore the signature at the bottom of the page.. this is my spare phone) and for some reason I cannot get active sync on it working..
I plug in the USB cable and the phone will charge.. but thats it. wont connect... i thought that perhaps there was something wrong with the cable, so i connected the phone via bluetooth to the laptop and still activesync wont connect..
The phone is runing windows mobile 2003 second edition Version 4.21.1088 (build 15159.2.6.4)
I've cold booted the phone so its clean.. and still nothing. I thought i might have needed to upgrade something on there.. but i havent been able to find anything and also the phone cant connect to activesync to install anything..
Does anyone have any suggestions that might help..
thanks
If you're using ver 4.5 of activesync, drop it and use 4.2 instead, 4.5 has issues with non-WM5 PPCs.
no joy

This maybe a long shot but im suspecting that you may have accidentally deleted repllog.exe, are you using cleaning softwares? anyway try to use SKTools "recreate activesync" function under notifications Queue menu. If all still fails, a hard reset may have to be resorted to.

well i am pretty sure i have not deleted anything.. and i evern did a hard reset and tried syncing.. still no joy.. its like theres a conspiracy against me and that blasted phone..
any other suggestions??? i turned the phone into bootloader mode.. and plugged it into the laptop and the display changed to USB V1.0.. so it definately recognises the usb.. maybe theres something with the old version of activesync on that phone.
Question
Are you using sync by GPRS to Exchange? I'm using it and I can't sync by USB, however other PDA in my office which was not updated its ROM, works fine.

no.. i havent been trying to sync via gprs.. i have just been trying to connect via active sync to windows xp.. and its the original rom that came with the mda when it was bought.. its never been updated. thats what i wanted to do...
i even was going to try updating the rom from an SD card but couldnt find a big storage rom..
I am having a problem syncing with activesync, and i must think the problem is due to a drop i had the other day. It made the miniUSB port...smaller seemingly, although the cable still fits in (be it very snugly now). i can still charge it in the wall, and it shows "connected" on activesync when plugged into the pc and the amber light comes on every time. However activesync quickly gives me a message that "synchronization cannot be completed successfully, please remove device and try again or open the troubleshooter"
I'm not sure if i should just start to look for a different way to back up files via PIM or others and move on without activesync ...flash using microSD from now on? consider replacing the port (not even sure how much effort that is, or if it's possible yet)
Or is there anything simple i can try that i haven't done yet? TIA
EDIT: I Have tried unistalling and reinstalling Activesync and even dl'd latest version of AS again
How about deleting the sync partnership with ActiveSync, reestablishing the partnership and then seeing if you are able to sync?
have you tried syncing via bluetooth, then at least you would know its the usb port that is the problem, you say the connection is tight when you insert the cable, are you sure that nothing else is lodged in there when you dropped it?
well, it doesn't look like there's anything in there from what i can tell...the metal actually looks bent or mangled just a bit. Unfortunately my lappy does not have BT, so i can't try that. good thought though
Well if i was you i would invest in a bluetooth dongle for your laptop ,that way you should still be able to sync, and flash via sd card. That way you will have the problem sorted to a degree. Have you tried flashing another rom via cable btw. You say it connects via active sync. I would do a backup using spb backup or something similar and reflash the device and see if that fixes the sync issue. Try a cooked rom first, if that doesnt work try an original rom.
The only reason i mention the cooked rom to flash first is that it is quicker
I've had the same problem where active sync wasn't recognizing my phone.....that is until I soft reset'd my phone while still connected to pc...usually works for me.
another solution..on phone goto:
Settings->Connections->USB-to-PC->Advanced Network Functionality
on... I turned it off. I haven't had a random disconnect, nor PC crash.
A soft reset did the trick for me.

If you have a card reader, copy this - http://toril.ru/pda/akrndisadd.exe - onto the phone and run it there. It works every time my phone decides to stop talking to the PC.

Hi,
I am having a strange problem with Active Sync.
When I plug in my mobile with USB and use active sync. it does not synchornise.
I have tried all the options liek chaning schedule, changing the settings and diabling advanced network functionality still I am not able to make the diamond synchronise.
Finally, I download the active sync. 4.5 even then my problem remains the same.
It always shows the message "connected" and fails to synchronise.
thanks for any help..

Hello to everyone.

Solution:
Just add this:

"WCESMGR Windowplacement"="0,1,-1,-1,-1,-1,0,0,0,0"
in windows xp registry.
Error is no longer appeared when I connect t32 (WM6) with my pc.
Doing both things in post #6 worked for my TyTN. This trouble started only after I plugged my phone into a Vista laptop to use it as a modem. Gotta love Vista.... (smile)
Thank you for the help, and thank goodness for this forum!

Firstly, what operating system are you using on your PC?
Secondly, have you tried deleting the sync partnership on both your phone and the PC and recreating it?
Thirdly, try and connect your phone directly to the USB root hub on your PC and not via a hub.
The fact that the HD2 is identifying the physical connection suggest the problem may lie at the PC end. Recreating the sync partnership is probably all that's needed.
Hello
If you are using Vista or Win7 you need to download Microsoft Mobile Device Manager to get a successful connection. Once you download this and install all will be good.
There is an option (can´t remember where) where you can disable fast link for ActiveSync.
This fast option has created me a lot of problem.
i'm using win7, i reinstalled the mobile device.
If i disable enable faster data sync then I can sync the phone with the computer but if I enable faster data sync then the 3G band auto enables...
I have just in the last weekend somehow lost the ability to connect to any computer. I have an activesync connection with work and a connection via hsdpa to the server too, and then one via wmdc on my vista home computer.
All has been going swimmingly until the weekend when I noticed that it had stopped synching new appointments.
The computers (both) now no longer even detect the phone, although it does charge via the usb cables.
The settings are still set to sync on the phone (as opposed to say disk drive).
I've tried a bunch of things, and now annoyingly, have hard reset the phone, but no joy!! Now I have the joy of setting everything back up again... But still no synchronising with the computer.
Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

Did you reboot the PC? I occassionaly have problems with activesync stopping working suddenly. It doesn't really like being unplugged sometimes and get's a bit ansy about it. I've found that sometimes a soft reset of the phone does it, but sometimes I need to reboot the PC.
I hope you did try rebooting the PC before you did a hard reset. At least you wouldn't have wasted your time with having to set up your phone again!
Yes did indeed! Restarted both. But the fact that it's affecting 2 computers suggests to me that it's something wrong with the phone, and not computers themselves.
HTC haven't been any help as yet - just haven't responded to my requests.

The fact that it still doesn't work after a hard reset leaves me at a loss!
You're telling me!
Before anyone asks also, I've tried different cables and different usb ports on both computers too.
Any other thoughts out there? I'm starting to think now it's something inside the phone - i.e. the usb port?
Fixed for me!
After having sent off the phone to HTC, it was repaired in 8 days and that was sending it to and from Sweden to the UK!
Turns out the usb connector in the phone itself was not working. 10/10 for HTC repair service!
If you use the XPP OS.
You must select ‘To enable faster data synchronization’ (i dont konw how to translated that, sorry my English.) under the ActiveSyuc.
If you use the Vista OS.
You dont select this option otherwise you cannt connect you phone to computer.
me too,..i can't connect with my pc... my computer show me found new hardware & need 2 install driver,...tell me what kind of driver need...? thank!!!

To make Active Sync work
Turn off Setup\other\USB to PC\ActiveSync Enable Faster Data Synchronization
The all will be ok
SOLVED!! Joy, joy, happiness glow... . I removed AVG 9.0, restarted, reinstalled WMDC and the driver (all of which installed automatically when I plugged my HD2 in to the USB port), and reinstalled AVG 9.0 and… Voila, MAGIC! I had AVG configuered correctly to allow WMDC to make connections and pass through the antivirus, but I still had to uninstall it to get the driver to install. Sometimes antiviruses are stubborn!
hi i had the same problem try this go to settings on your phone all settings connections usb to pc and uncheck the fast sync box if that dont work theirs an option that is somewhere on your pc where you can choose the pc to search for an update driver for that device

I tried BOTH of those options prior to uninstalling AVG and no joy. Bytheway, I've switched to Microsoft Security Essentials and still have to uninstall MSE everytime I flash my HD2! UGH!
Hi,
I am in the UK, i just bought my HTC leo (known as HD2 here), reading through the instructions i was guided to install WMDC which i did, i had not plugged in the phone at this point and one error was thrown up saying device not connected which was easily explainable, so now i connect the phone expecting WMDC to jump up, it doesnt and never has, now i am no novice to these things and i have been in this forum a few years ago with another phone so i am well versed on searching for answers to my problem before making posts, so far all i can find on the problem is people reporting not being able to sync using office, this is not my problem as i cant even get the phone to sync with WMDC, i have tried other suggestions such as ...
registry key in question:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Svchost\WindowsMobile
- Right click -> Permissions -> Advanced
- Took owner ship of the registry key
- Gave the Users group Full Control.
Then in device manager:
- Uninstalled my Microsoft Mobile Remote Adapter
- Scan hardware changes
and then it installed properly and am able to sync again
but to no avail, i have uninstalled and reinstalled with the phone connected and unconnected, my pc seems to find the device but i dont think it is reporting it right, in device & printers the phone is seen as 'generic serial', when i do a properties on this it is said to be a 'pocketPC usb sync', when i connect and disconnect it does appear in the device manager under mobile devices, also if i just leave the phone, when the screen goes blank the device disappears from the device manager, i have tried uninstalling it from device manager and also updating drivers but it keeps saying the best driver for the device are installed, i have included some pictures and i am tearing my hair out over this, i bought this phone to replace my iphone but i am not to pleased yet.
Thanks.
Have you opened wmdc and setup a partnership?

What ROM are you on, btw, Cooked or Stock? and what version?

yes i did the disabling of fast sync, this is on stock rom out of the box its spl-1.42.0000, my plan was to install a cooked rom but i cant even get the phone to sync so i cant even do that to see if it will remedy the situation.
You can always install a cooked ROM as long as you can get to the bootloader...
Go to the bootloader...
Flash HSPL...
Use Task29 (Hex modified RUU.exe)
Flash your Cooked ROM of choice
I'm out of possible fixes for your sync problem though... I usually just uncheck "enable faster sync" and all is fine...
try this, if you haven't... as a last resort..
Uninstall WMDC
Reboot
Install WMDC
Reboot
Connect HD2 before your PC boots (with "enable faster sync" unchecked)
worth a try
no luck...this is highly frustrating
any firewalls up and running? I'm on Win 7 x64 and WMDC 6.1 is playing fine with Outpost Firewall
Good Luck and I hope you get everything sorted out...
IS your device configured to use the active sync as it might be in internet sharing, usb mode if this is set you wont be able to sync or connect right

Have you tried hard resetting the device and then trying to reconnect it?
Ok, done the hard reset...still saying not connected on WMDC and phone is registering in device manager
Is the phone showing up correctly in device manager, should it be 'pocketPC USB sync' ?

Try to disable your antivirus. I use Kaspersky and I have same problem if I don't disable antivirus.
Disabled antivirus and firewall...strange thing is..if i uninstall it from device manager, when i reinstall it with fast sync enabled on phone it installs as mobile remote adaptor or something like that, if i reinstall with fast sync disabled it installs as pocketpc usb sync
What I did with my HD2 and W7 64-bit was just turn it on and plug it in! Windows downloaded, installed and configured WMDC automatically so I didn't have to do a thing!

Thanks for that...nothing like having salt rubbed in to the wounds lol... thats exactly what i did but not so lucky...anyhow...i just uninstalled the thing again for numpteenth time and scanned for hardware changes and went out the room...when i come back in it was alive...dont know what i did that was different though, i will renable my AV and firewall and see if it was that.
Thanks to everyone for your help
Didn't mean to sound so smart-arse-ish - I just always plug things into W7 and only if they can't get something working do I go driver hunting!
No i know you wasnt, i wasnt offended at all...its so nice to be able to just plug things in though, with windows 7 its been a breeze and this is the first time i have had trouble, hopefully thats the end of that problem and i can get going with some cooked roms....anything you can recommend ? seem to be so many, whats the most popular ?
Personally, take a look at the one in my sig - new version of it is out later this evening and its a great ROM. Gets rid of all the crapware no one ever uses...
Other than that, take a look at Duttys or Miri's ROMs - but the newest version are only on HTCPedia
Well...that lasted all of 3 minutes !....now its not connecting again...no logic what so ever
Right...seems it may have been the USB port, i was initially trying 2 ports, one was a front panel usb port which is connected via a pin header on the mobo, the second one was an extension lead to the back mobo mounted usb port which is usb3...so as a last straw i thought i would try the usb hub i have connected to the other onboard usb port which is usb 2..the hub is powered so i am left wondering if that was the issue.
