i cnt seem to be able to connect via activesync for some strange reason. It has been working fine but since yesterday when i connect my mda it just keeps saying "connecting".
Anyone got any ideas on how to sort this......i want it to work so i can flash my mda with wm6 or a different rom.
thanks in advance...
Try to switch the connection (bluetooth / IR / USB)
i would but i want to flash my mda and it cannot be done unless synced via usb
Since you are going to flash it, backup your phone and do a hardreset and try again?
I have a same problem. I connect my Charmer to my notebook and it work fine. When I connect my desktop the Charmer can't connect.
I found the problem. The Charmer try to request an IP address for the DHCP server but the firewall block the request.

Hi All,
Before running the upgraded ROM, to enable ActiveSync via Bluetooth, I had to download and install a Bluetooth file from a site I can't remember now. After the upgrade I can't use ActiveSync via Bluetooth and am not sure whether I need to reinstall the same Bluetooth stuff as before as I thought the ROM had Bluetooth fixes in it for ActiveSync etc.
Has anybody else been able to connect via Bluetooth after the upgrade with no other files being installed ?
Thanks,
Rob.
yes i use activesync via bluetooth at work and home using the new rom and installing no other software.
It was a pain getting it to work, and what i did in the end was delete all parterships in activesync and start again from stratch, that worked for me.
This is what i did:
I couldnt get my XDA2 to access the net via BT active synch until i went into start / settings / system / bluetooth settings / bluetooth active synch setup.
It then asks you to bond the XDA2 with your pc ( if its already bonded, delete it ) once done, you then click yes to let the XDA2 use the pc's serial port, do the same on the pc, and connect via BT as normal.
Works great !
I've tried about one gazillion suggestions to make Activesync work over USB on my Qtek 9100, and I've given up. I went for BT connections, which works fine.
However, RUU doesnt work over a BT connection (i get to the multicolor boot screen, and, of course lose the BT that would allow the update to finish...).
Is there a way to do it via the SD card, and, if so, can somebody get me the SD image for the latest french version ?
Thanks all.
What is the problem with your USB ActiveSync?
I thought I was going to go crazy trying to sort out mine, because it would just hang on "Trying to obtain address" (=DHCP) when I connected.
In short, the problem turned out to be having the DHCP service at "Manual" (go to Start->Control Panel->Administrative Tools->Services). I resolved it by choosing "Automatic" for starting the DHCP service. If it's not set at "Automatic" for the start type,
ActiveSync won't recognize the device because the background method of connection for ActiveSync involves the PDA acting as a DHCP server and your computer receiving an arbitary IP address in order to communicate with the PDA.
Thanks for the suggestion, but its one of the many things I tried... to no avail.
So, back to my original Q, is there a way via the SD card ?
i've read that there is a prog. to specially format the sd card, and include the rom extracted from the .exe... please help me, I can't find the reference.
Use bootloader
If you put your Universal into bootloader mode as documented here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=37432 then you can connect to your PC over USB without Activesync and run the appropriate upgrade program.
Although I have Activesync working over USB intermittently I found this the surest way to upgrade.
Hope this helps!
excellent !!
Activesync doesnt work, but the RUU does !!
Thank you very much
Hi All
When trying to connect my new Vodafone 1605 to activesysnc, the device is not being recognised. Activsysnc runs through a test process, but only comes back with a possible port 990 problem. I have tried disabling the firewall and downloaded the latest activesync 4.2. neither of which has solved the problem.
If I connect my vpx it works fine and the partnership wizard starts
Any Ideas
Thanks
Terry
I got the new SPV 5000 as upgrade on orange and the first thing i did was unlock it using the bootloader by BUZZ from this site. Once i unlocked the phone, it works fine, everything is great. But when i try to connect it to the PC, it gives me an error, saying download Active sync 4.1 for it, I downloaded the latest 4.2 and tried to connect my universal to it, but it isnt able to connect, i dont know why..
sometimes it just gives me an error and says, check/report error and does all the status reports and stuff, but still not luck. I connected once and then when i clicked the explore button everything was blank, cant see my device or folders and nothing at all.
Please help me if someone knows the solution to it.. Cheers
Do you have another PC with which to try it out? Maybe the activesync installation or the USB drivers got corrupt.
Also, try syncing thru Bluetooth if your PC has BT. This might isolate the problem.
hello Jorgee, thanks for the reply, Yes it did work on the other PC, so does it mean that my current Pc's USB drivers are corrupt, coz the other day my USB TV stopped working on this one too. hehehe.. any solution to this PC problem
cheers mate
I find that if I'm connected to work using the Cisco VPN Client then ActiveSync won't connect, not really a big deal I guess but annoying all the same!
Hello together,
I have problems to connect my PDA via Active Sync. The computer trys to connect, but the connection failes. I happens on my computer at work and at home.
So if I reinstall the pda with factory settings it works again.
But why?
Someone knows this problem?
I use the newst AS with XP and already tried to reinstall the software and configured the USB to PC connection settings at my device.
The only way to connect the PDA again via AS is a hardreset on my device.
I have this problem all two or three months.
Best regards Karl
