Hey Guys,
Due to my companies outdated exchange servers I am in need of a good realtime redirector. I read that Smartner Duality Pro is very good but it doesn't seem to work with Win Mo 5.0. Anyone have any more info on this or could recommend another Real Time Redirector that is compatible with the Wizard.
Thanks,
Alex
can't u ask them to upgrade the exchange server? ... i've used smartner duality before with my XDA 2S but i haven't really used it on a WM5.0 device ... i use an O2 XDA Exec now with mine connecting to our exchange server at the office and it's cool and everything but it has a 1 to 5 second delay compared to using blackberry ...
Cheers!
I have actually looked into it, and apparently they will be upgrading sometime this year, which could mean 2008 knowing this company. I have asked to be one of the first on when it gets up and running. For now I am looking for something to bridge me till that time.

I have used the smartphone client successfully on the vario for sometime, however most recently been having some TCP connectivity issues.

Hi Jim,
Could you tell me which device client did you use. When I tried the 4.1 PPC client it won't install, just hangs up. The Smartphone one does install, however it never initializes once I try to get it going.
Thanks,
A

Like you I have been waiting with less and less patience for a Smartner WM5 client.
Yesterday I think I found the solution but it does seem a good deal more expensive than Smartner.

They do say that you get FULL support including calendars!!!!
My eval is on the way so I shall see.
Robin
Thanks Robin. Ill give it a shot as well and see how it works out.
Well I heard back from them, and they are only licensed to ditribute in Europe, so I am back on the search.
Some optimistic hopes declaims about mid february. Can't say for sure, I'll try to write here when confirmed.
I also heard back from Smartner, Seven, AlwaysOn....whatever their current name is. They will have an official Win Mo 5.0 client out by summer.
Has anyone found a workaround to this. I tried the cab file for Pocket PC and it just hangs on install. The smartphone edition one does install, but can't get it to intialize when I run it.

Smartner Duality and Win Mo 5.0
Contact Dan Metcalfe ([email protected]). In mid December he told me that they (Smartner/Seven) would be supporting WM 5.0 by January 2006 and the O2 mini S which I have. I decided I did not need it so I don't know if it has happened or not
AlexL,
I have this same issue. The work around is NOT to click the "OK" button in the warning dialog box about ActiveSync. Slide this box out of the way so you can get to the menu in the bottom right-hand corner. Under Menu, click on "Settings" -> double-click "Detail". In Detail change the Calendar Sync to "No". Finally, click Done. Then continue through the rest of the setup. Basically mail will work, but the calendar doesn't. There is something the Smartphone version doesn't like about the WM5 appointment database. In addition there are some settings that you can't get to. Like e-mail truncation sizes, etc...
Regards,
Blaine
Chaps,
Having just upgraded my trusty iPAQ and V3 for a T-Mobile Vario I was mortified to find the PPC Duality 4 client for Lotus Notes won't work. Unfortunately tech support at my organisation won't distribute the smartphone client for me to try even though we have people using C500's.
I don't suppose someone who has access to the V4 Duality Pro Smartphone client could make a copy available?
This is not a request for pirate software as it is useless without the appropriate back end, it's just a frustrated techie who has got himself caught on the bleeding edge while the technology laggards in my IT department pontificate the relative merits of running 'mobile phone' software on a PDA.
Any help would be appreciated as I will look a bit of a tit using my iPAQ to access mail through the bluetooth/GPRS connection or a perfectly good WM5 PDA.
EDIT:
Well I take back what I said about the internal guys, they supplied me with the new V5 ppc client which is 2005/WM5 compatibe and it works a dream.
Regards
Dave
Windows Mobile 5 Client for Smartner Duality
Hi, we have been using the Smartner duality Professional edition, with a PC in the office pushing emails out to 5 mobile devices. I have upgraded everyone to TMobile Variois and the old 4.1 Windows 2003 client will no longer install. Anyone got access to a working Mobile 5 client? The internet only client will not install with the Push connector.
Many thanks

Is there anyway to change the "Reply From" email address on the handset? The Windows Live website allows me to utilize an alternate email addresses to set as my default 'reply from' address. However, the handset only has the default Win Live logon ID as my reply address. I don't see any selectable email options at all. Is this a limitation or a bug of Win Live on the X1 handset?
Anyone has any idea on this?
would love to know the answer to this as well
Cheers
except im on a hermes using win 6.1
but its the software that matter eh
Hi
I used to be able sync to my work Outlook email via ActiveSync / Outlook Mobile Access (OMA). However, yesterday my work IT department disabled OMA on my Exchange server as they do not support anything other than the blackberry. Despite my protestation they are refusing to re-enable OMA. This leaves me with a big issue!
Does anyone on here know of a third party application that can sync outlook emails and calander using Outlook Web Access (OWA)?
I have found an application called Chronobis which is able to sync from OWA but only one way i.e. deleted items on Chronobis will not delete from my Outlook inbox and calendar appointments added won't sync to my outlook calander (or so I believe). Whilst this is a good start it really doesn't get me to where I need to be.
I am desperate to sync my work outlook emails to my new HTC HD2 (its the main reason I got it)!
Anyone got any other ideas / know of any other applications?
Would really appreciate any suggestions.
Thanks in advance.
Yes, you can use a service called Seven.
Thanks for your response.
I've had a look and it seems this could do the job! Seems that the only way to get it was to join the beta programme which I've done but when I put my the vendor in it doesnt give me the HD2 as an option.
Any ideas what handset I should choose that will work with the HD2?!
I've also read compatibility issues with Manilla 2.5 in their forums. Has anyone managed to get this working successfully on an HD2? Also, are you able to move emails to your different folders using this app and have them sync with the exchange?
Is this the best / only app out there for my requirement?
Sorry for all the qus!
Thanks again.
ActiveSync uses OWA. Put in webmail server, username, password and works.
OWA still works, like afterburn said, i got my calendar, email and tsks to synch. lol now all my contacts are on my university email accounts, pretty cool tho.
no need for thirdparty, active sync does it.
dont know what OMA is. but what you want is exactly what OWA gives you.
dont set your owa using HCT SENSE/MANILA SETTINGS. do it through normal out look ad account way. HTC tick boxes for tasks, calendar and other stuff are greyed out and only email is available.
but on the standard outlook mobile all the settings are there.
need a run through of how to set it up?
Thanks for your responses guys.
OMA is office mobile outlook. It is a setting within the exchange server which either allows or disallows a mobile device to access emails through the mail app. Having OWA does not mean that you will be able to access your emails from a mobile device (except through the mobile browser).
Activesync uses OMA rather than OWA so at the moment I'm stuck!
As a result I need an app that syncs via OWA.
Seven seems to be able to do it but I could do with any answers to my qus above.
Happy to be proved wrong on this but one day it was all working fine and the next my exchage server settings had been changed and it stopped working.
Any exchange server admins on here who can confirm my thinking is correct?

I'm using Seven on HD2. There were compatibility problems with custom ROMs on other devices based on leaked Leo Manila.
Why don't you use Blackberry Connect on your Wm device? That way, you can sync the same way as Blackberry devices. Of course that requires you to have BB access rights, but since they are so BB happy, you may be able to get that.
You can get it here: http://www.htc.com/us/mobile/connect/8925/install/default.html
Of course it is not specific for the HD2, and I have no idea if it'll work, but it is worth a try.
BB connect sounds like a good idea, wasn't aware it was a possibility, thanks.
I actually have a BB from work so I know that I am set up for it. However, I work for a company that are very keen on security so there is no way they will give out the settings I would need (its set up by the IT department and then just given to you).
Is there any way to get the info / settings I need from my current blackberry? Ive had a look on it and can't see anything obvious.
Just checked through some documentation on BB connect and unfortunatley it requires that I install ActiveSync and BB Connect on a computer connected to my works network.
As I dont have admin rights on my work laptop I won't be able to do this (unless anyone knows how to install programs without being an administrator!).
Looks like Seven might be the bset solution!
Vangrieg, which handset did you choose to set up for the HD2?
Thanks
I admin an exchange server, the most common reason for OMA not working is if there isnt a valid ssl cert for the domain, but i can confirm that as you mentioned, it will deffo not work if mobile access is turned off on the user account (there are 2 seperate options for web and mobile access)
i dont see any decent reason why a server admin would disable it, he must be on a power trip or sommert!
Thanks lancemate.
Could the valid ssl cert be the reason even if others in my company are still able to access as before? Its only affecting me. I've set up one of my collegues mail accounts on my phone to see if it still worked and it did without any issues.
When I called IT they said they hadn't changed any of my settings so I had assumed that OMA was the issue. I asked them to check and to re-enable and they told me they were unwilling to even look at my settings!!! Our IT department has been moved to India which makes it even harder to get any help!
Could an ssl cert suddenly just expire?!
Is there anyway of me to get a valid ssl cert for the domain witout going through IT to see if this is the issue?!
Been doing some more research and want to see if getting an ssl certificate onto my phone will make it work. Absoloutely no idea if it will work but its the last thing I can think off!
Is it possible to download the SSL certificate from my OWA site?
If I double click on the padlock in the bottom left corner I can get the certificate details up on the "details" tab (although there are loads of files and I don't know what I'm looking at!). When I click "copy to file" the export wizard come up but I have no idea where to go from there!
Anyone able to offer any assistance please?
Also, I'm sure this is a stupid question but would I need to put this certificate on my phone or could I use a different one?!
Thanks
It cant be an SSL Cerificate issue if your Colleague's account works on your device.
It MUST be that OMA is disabled on your account or something else is horribly wrong. As mentioned above i cant see any reason why an Exchange administrator would disable OMA.
Can you connect to your account using activesync on a different device to check whether its the phone or settings on server side?
To help you with using Blackberry Connect as a possible solution here are some resources on how to run programs that require admin level on machines you havent been given admin rights to. Some methods cover your tracks completely and others simply let you create/amend and delete windows accounts and associated rights in whatever way you need.
i would suggest using the first link to create a bootable usb stick that loads a modified linux command prompt. You can then use this to give yourself local admin rights.

I've tried to set up on 2 other phones, bith with no joy so I'm guessing its the server side rather than the phone.
Is there no way that its anything to do with the ssl certificate? Are they set up company rather than by user? Will my suggestion of putting a certificate on my phone definately not work (if I could even find out how to export it from OWA)?!
I also cant see why the OMA would have been diabled so thinking it must be something else!
Thanks
I share Gooner's concerns and look forward to finding a solution. 1) My company has not yet enabled mobile devices to sync via Outlook Web Access. 2) Blackberry Connect does not yet work on HD2. There is a thread for BBC on this very same forum.
I am confident that a solution will soon emerge for 1) and/or 2).

Well, sometimes you need to install the certificate manually on your device to make it work. That's the case where I work - we use a self-signed certificate.
I use zarafa as a direct replacement for exchange, it syncs my emails,calendars, contacts etc.
It allows push email as well.
Hi JMes
After looking around I have found it appears that there are 2 services that will allow you to sync a mobile device using OWA, even if it is not set up for OMA.
Seven - Currently in beta but others have had success with this service on an HD2. I believe that it will sync Calendar, Tasks and Email.
Emoze - Also allows you to check outlook via OWA and offers a free service or a paid for service. Paid for service allows you to remove the "sent from emoze" tag allows attachemnts to be sent up to 2mb (rather than 100kb). Think it costs 10 euros a year.
Hi,
i hope somebody can help me with my activesync error 0x80072F06; it says that the server security certificates are invalid, which i can't understand at all: I have my touch2 connected to my microsoft exchange server 2010 and imported my servers security certificate (which i first exported on my desktop using internet explorer). At first i tried to sync the phone at home by wifi and entered my servers local IP -> worked exactly as i should.
But as soon as i enter my external ip my certificate it doesnt work anymore and gives me the above error...
But i don't understand why i can successfully sync the phone the first time after i entered the settings and also the first time every day when the exchange server/the phone try to connect (some minutes after midnight) it works, but why not always?
I hope i could give you enough information to help me solve my problem.

I've always been able to sync without a security certificate...I don't know if this is related at all, but you can try this: http://www.mobilitydigest.com/forums/showthread.php?t=259&highlight=exchange+security
Thanks a lot, would be really great, but sadly it doesn't work under windows mobile 6.5... i tried to install the version for windows mobile 6.1 professional but it always gives me an error (unexpected error in stay config.exe) when i try to save the settings... (although i installed the 2.0 version)
is there any other way (maybe a registry setting) to disable the certificates?
thank you for your help,

can you try changing the connection speed?
mine is in dutch, but it must be something like:
settings-->connections-->USB to PC-->uncheck the option for a faster connection.
Hi,
i'm not connecting to a local pc over usb so i don't think i can change the connection speed as i'm connecting to an exchange server over umts/hsdpa/3g or wifi... I hope that was what you ment?
Thanks for your help!

Hey Saw,
Did you import the certificate with an .P7B extention? I also tried the DER encoded binary and the Base-64 encoded (both .CER). But the Cryptographic message syntax standard was the one that worked for me.

Hi,
which way did you export your certificate/ which program did you use?
Thank you for your help, i hope this is going to solve the problem! But if its not, nobody has an idea how to turn off windows mobile asking for valid certificates?
saw45
ok i imported now the certificate in cryptographic message syntax standard (.p7b) but it didn't change anything
I really don't know what to do... ironically the perfect exchange integration was one of the points why i decided to buy a windows mobile based phone
i don't really understand why it works at 00:01 and then the phone decides that the certificate isn't valid?? When i start the phone at 2 pm the first time (that day) it also works!? But after the first sync no matter what i do it won't work again!
I really hope somebody can help me!

Hi rdashora, under settings, Cellular you need to edit and enter the APN for for your service provider. You may need to search online for the correct string.
Exchange worked fine on my end...i must say that this has to be the best exchange capable Os out there. My work emails render as faithfully as they do on my desktop
Thanks, it works

Why have you posted this question in this thread?
Unfortunately, unlike iOS and Android, WP7, like WinMo before it, still does not accept unsigned certificates.
With iOS and Android, you can choose to accept te unsigned cert after viewing a warning. Microsoft still don't allow this.
To get it working you have to setup an email account that works (gmail/hotmail) and email yourself the root certificate for the exchange domain. You can then install on the device from the email. After that, you can now attach to you Exchange server.
It's a bit of a hassle and one that there's really no reason not to support along with the appropriate warnings.
worked data connection
The answer was given,
Enter cellular menu. there, add "APN" option is available. Enter here your own countrymen, the GSM operator information...
I worked very well. but too bad the app to be paid.
I still say android2.3 much better operating system.
Hello:
i have another problem related to exchange the user name name of my account has two word as "name surname". When I tried to configurate my excahnge account I cannot introduce any space on the username field.
Does anybody know any trick to solve the problem?
Any registry key to change where user name is stored? As know the automatic system of WP7 detected my username as the first part of my e-mail address (ex. [email protected] the user name detected is name.surname instead of name surname)
Any trick to force the keyboard to write spaces?
If I do not find a solution I will have to come back to 6.5 as I need my HD2 for work.
thanks in advance for your help.

That is weird, you say ur username has a space in it? I didnt think that was possible??? I would contact ur IT dept on that one.
Yes, my user name has a space in it. but not just mine also all the rest of my organization. Everybody gets the user name as 'name surname'. I already contact IT department and they told me they will not change nothing for security policy.
I have had 5 windows mobile phone, 3 androids and several symbian and I never got any problem, it was always possible to wirte my user name with the space. :-(
Hi, I'm having the same problem now. I was running either BOYPPCs or HD2Os (i can't remember) NODO rom and I could sync with my companies exchange no problems. However I installed the mango beta yesterday and now I have a certificate error, I tried going back to XBMODs nodo rom and it didn't work either. I know all these roms come from the same base, but could there be different certificates floating around?
