Hi all,
A bit of a strange one, this.
Outlook seems to open on top of whatever program I usee at seemingly random times (not related to any of the 3 pop accounts polling)
I have tried uninstalling Email Scheduler (have had it since day one, but the problem only started yesterday, but thought I'd check) and no change.
I've also disabled/moved the polling to be doubly sure, but no change either.
I've tried removing the lnk in the start up folder as it opens on boot, but no change again.
Any ideas?
Found the issue. I reticked "show account picker when starting messaging".

Got my MDA yesterday and used it for a day before I setup ActiveSync.
Everything worked fine prior to the first ActiveSync. After the syncing my MDA crashes when I tap to the "Sounds & Notifications" icon and than select the "Notifications" tab.
A soft reset will get the device working again, but it will crash again if I go to the "Notifications" tab. The same thing happens when in phone mode and I select "Menu>Options".
I have done multiple hard resets and all is well after the hard reset until I again try to ActiveSync and than the problem returns.
Any Ideas?
Problem Solved!
Well I resolved my problem. I will post the solution here in case, for some bizare reason, this happens to anyone else.
It turns out that the culprit was an item in Outlook Notes that most have been currupted and was causing the crash.
I had to do a hard reset of the MDA and a complete uninstall/reinstall of AS on the PC. I then performed multiple syncs adding a catagory of data (i.e contacts, calendar, notes,etc) with each sync. My intial hunch was that the problem was with my Calendar data/alarms. But lo and behold it was notes.
I simply deleted all notes fromt he MDA and my issue was resolved..no more crashes. I then went back into Outlook and cleaned up my Notes by deleting a few things and renaming some others and now all is well.
Hi, I've got a Cingular 8125 with the updated ROM from HTC.
I have a peculiar issue with my Messaging inbox: if I try to launch it by pressing the hardkey, most of the screen doesn't redraw. The titlebar changes to indicate the name of the current messaging account (Outlook, MMS, Text Messages, etc), and the softkey menus appear and are usable. The problem is that the list of messages and current folder aren't shown, only the last application I was using.
This problem began after the ROM update. One interesting thing that I noticed when reconfiguring my device after the update was that when I was inputting the settings for my gmail account, I tried to rename that account "Gmail", and got a message indicating that that account name was already in use. (Perhaps this is related to restoring an email backup from SPB Backup that contained my email information.)
Another odd aspect of this problem is that if I launch messaging from the touchscreen, the message list appears as normal.
A few other people seem to be experiencing this problem as well, but without any apparent solutions (other than the dreaded hard reset):

Any help would be greatly appreciated!
afaik, there is no resolution to this issue other than what you've already seen and done..
Just got my TyTN Pro yesterday with ROM 1.18.255.3. Its my first foray into WM as long time Palm user, converted from the Treo 650
Okay, TyTN runs great in its virginal mode before anything is added. However after adding in my info from Outlook 2003: Contacts, Calender, Tasks, and Notes, I have problems. I also have ActiveSync set up to sync Windows Media and Files, but not Email.
First problem, when I go into the phone and choose options, then menu never comes up, same thing when I go into settings and choose phone, just nothing at all.
Second problem, it slows to a frickin crawl that is just plain unusable. I'm not sure if its related, but ActiveSync shows up frequently on the Running Programs Tab in the memory menu on the settings even when I didn't Activate it or set up an Exchange account.
Man, this is frustrating.
Actually I have a third problem too. When I have tried to send an MMS, it keeps resending it as though delivery failed, though the recipent receives all the MMS. kinda frustrating.
As for the first two issues in the first post...
I have slowly been syncing the TyTN.
I started with my 651 Contacts, things still worked fine
Added my 2374 Calender entries, still good
Added my 116 Tasks, still good
Added my 139 Notes/Memos and the problems start. WTF could be the problem that my Notes are causing the Phone options not to show up and the unit to slow?
And I just confirmed that it is something in the Notes after hard reseting and ONLY syncing just the notes. I am now going to separate the notes into two halves and see if I can further isolate the problem
Well, several hours later, it was one memo with 127 characters in the first line. Even when I tried to hit a return after the first few words, during the sync process it rendered it back to the intolerable format. Weird. Anybody know what the usable limit of characters in the title of a memo is?
lol very weird! :shock:
I don't know if this is the correct forum for my problem, if not please don't flame me
I've been looking all over the web, but haven't been able to find a sollution to my syncing issue. This issue didn't occur on my Diamond 2, Touch Dual or any other phone. Don't think it's a HD2 issue though...
When my HD2 is connected to my laptop via the desktop cradle, it of course syncs with my Outlook 2010 (beta testing).
Everything syncs very well, except for one thing which is really annoying.
It just keeps on syncing and syncing the calendar with 1 error, over and over again and again... (you get the picture)
When I open Outlook to see what it's having trouble syncing, it looks like it's trying to insert a "half hour appointment" during "today" with no name, content or anything. It keeps inserting it, and then removing it, and inserting it, and removing it, and inserting it and so forth...
Does anyone have this issue, or hopefully a sollution!?
EDIT
Installed applications that are using the .pst calendar file from Outlook:
- Rainlendar
- WMDC
- DeskTasks
Here is what I've tried:
Reinstalled WMDC...
Reinstalled Windows Mobile Device driver...
Deleted the partnership and then made a new one...
Deleted the syncing-tasks (calendar, notes and so forth) and then set them up again...
Banged my head on my desk...
Chewed a corner off of my keyboard...
PS: I've tried to "catch it" with a screenshot, but it's only in my calendar for a split second.
Hmmm...
Apparently there is also an entry it can't sync.
The entry is from a former installation of Manilla Birthday, but it's no longer in the calendar. Wonder how I'm supposed to delete it, when I can't see it...!?
Anyone got some input on this?
Would be much appriciated
My email stopped working right about 2 weeks ago. It MAY be related to the new TMOUS ROM I loaded, but not sure. I can reply to email without issue, but I can't auto-address an email, nor can I send an email that isn't a reply. In auto-addressing, usually I start typing an address and options show up, not anymore. In sending, I type in an email address (not a name) and hit send. The soft button flashes, but nothing changes on the screen. I tried searching on email issues, re setup all my email information without using Manilla (native windows setup), and tried soft-resets galore. No go.
One complication in the past has been I have a large contact database (12k names) and so autocomplete often took some time (30 secs or so) to bring up options. Now however, I can leave it plugged in over nite and no suggestions.
Any thoughts anyone?
OK tried a bunch of stuff, finally gave up and re-installed the 2.13 ROM update. Without re-installing all my stuff, I tried it again. Same problem. However, I had already sync'd my contacts, so don't know if the database size is the problem. Used to work fine in the previous ROM (2.10).
Any thoughts would be appreciated
Bump? Anyone else having trouble with email?
I found a portion of the issue:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=544453
While the autocomplete suggestions are coming up now, the email still doesn't send. An additional issue is that I can't save the email to drafts either.
Another symptom, periodically I will click on an email, and only a blank screen comes up.
Did the hard reset again, and rebuilt one app at a time. Nothing caused the email problem. Seems to be related to my contact database. I'm either going to have to shrink that, or find out if something in the database is corrupted...
So I restored my database a little at a time (by unplugging the cable during sync. ) It was working fine until I put the last ones in. Then all three symptoms occured simultaneously (no address drop down, no send, and blank emails on view). I suspect at this point a corrupted record in the database, but it might still be size based. I found a couple of chinese characters in the database, which might be the problem. Deleted an restored that record, but doesn't fix it. May have to hard reset again...
Does anyone know a way to clean up and verify the integrity of an outlook database?
PIM database too big?
The problem does seem to be with the size of the database. I found that by removing one category of contacts (~4000), behavior reverted to normal. Restoring and then removing another category (~4500) did the same thing, so it does not appear to be a corrupted database.
While this works, it would be nice to have all my contacts back in. Does anyone have an idea on the limitations of the contact database size?
