I've recently got an XDA Exec from work that I'm having two issues with. Knowing how good XDA-Developers is when I'm doing all sorts of crazy stuff with my Wizard I thought I'd jump ship to the Universal forum.
Unfortunately as it's a work unit I'm stuck with official ROMs, which means I'm using the latest O2 ROM that is AKU 2.0 I believe.
Issue 1) ActiveSync seems to get stuck some times and when it's 'looking for changes' when connected to Exchange. It just sticks there and fails to either proceed or cancel. I have to disconnect GPRS, then ActiveSync times out and it's ok again. Is there any way to fix this?
Issue 2) When I open the device and it's unlocked the screen comes on automatically. Is there any way to do this when it is locked too?
I have an HTC branded TyTN and even though the phone is on and the reception shows strong the calls are not getting through. Also when I try to make calls they are droped.
This does not happen all the time but very often. I miss about half of my calls.
Anybody has any ideas?
Need a little more info to help solve your problem.
1. Where are you located.
2. Who is your service Provider
3. Has the phone ever worked right with this provider
4, How long have you had the phone and was it new or used when you got it.
5. Does it still have the same Rom and Radio on it as when you got it.
6. What versions are those.
7. Have you tried a hard reset
Answer these for starters and let's see what we can do to help you out.
I am located in Cyprus and the service provider is cytamobile-vodafone. The phone was purchased from expansys.com.cy
It worked fine for more than a year. Although this particular problem occured very rarely during the first year.
I know of at least one more person who experienced this problem for a short period of time but it was sorted out on its own.
The only update I made to the phone was installing Windows mobile 6 from the official HTC website. The phone worked fine for a few months after the update.
No other update of any rom was made.
I tried a hard reset but it did not help.
OK, and thanks for the response. Based on what you have said, my only other suggestion would be to check your version of radio installed. If you are unfamiliar with how to do that, it appears on the screen at every reboot, or, you can go to settings, device info and it is listed there. I am unfamiliar with service Providers in Cyprus, so I would suggest doing a search of the forums to see if you can find another user with your service provider and a similar phone to see which radio works best for them. If I remember right, the WM6 update from the HTC site, does flash a new radio also, and that may be the problem. If you can't find anything, start a new thread with a title like best radio for cytamobile-vodafone in Cyprus, and hopefully you will only get relevant responses from fellow countrymen.
Does anyone else have any ideas to help this fellow XDAer out? Sorry I couldn't be more help.
thank a lot steve
To start with: I already posted my findings on USB connections with a mobile phone and windows XP in the thread that handles a USB utility
By Accident I just stumbled upon the next and I think it is worth posting.
As I connected my windows mobile 6.0 on an HTC MDA vario II today it suddenly failed to find my device.
To sync anyway, I connected it thrue Bluetooth and that worked fine.
Then: I wanted to sync some new tracks via my Windows Mediaplayer on the XPSP2 machine. As it seems it is unseen through bluetooth.
I considred that this time, the only difference between yesterday (when everything worked fine) and today, was changing my SIMcard from the WM6.1 HTC to this one.
SO I took it out.
And hey....my device (that I had already removed the USB devices) was seen; installed and started syncing like it was yesterday.
It seems T-mobile has some strange SIM-card that makes it impossible to use the USB - Activesync functionality when the SIM is in the phone.
This goes only for WM 6.0 because my WM 6.1 (HTC Vario IV) does not have that problem at all. Maybe there is some developer with any idea as to how this might happen. There are many issues on the net concerning the same symptoms.
It keeps us busy and does make you want to take your new WM 6.1 phone on holidays instead of taking the oldie and keep an eye on that one.
It is also not so very sustainable because I did not have this problem the first year. Before the T-mobile upgrade.....
PLease tell me we are not being scr**&$#@ for marketing and explain there is a perfictly logical reason for this unforseen behaviour. I'd love to sync without taking my SIM card out. Should I get in touch with T-mobile?
Good luck to everyone who stumbles upon this thread for a reason and let me know solutions if found.
This phone looks fantastic.. it nearly has everything i need...
I am moving from a blackberry pearl with push email on a Blackberry internet service.
What do you guys reckon.. Will it have or be possible to use with the blackberry service (connect maybe?)
appreciate your comments

I believe theres a software of BB for wmo devices, it lets u chat with your bb contacts and stuff...
Hi,
I am wondering if in the meantime anyone did get the Blackberry Connect software successfully run on the HTC Snap?
I bought the Snap in summer, installed several versions of BB connect, but it didn't work...always got the message "PIN pending".
On my HTC Touch HD it works fine...
Has anyone been able to get Blackberry Connect to work?

I tried before..still not worked..
i tried bb conect for Moto Q..the software can be install..but never got a pin from blackberry apn...the pin always stated as pending.
i tried to change device id via registry..but got same problem..never get a BB pin successfully.
I have worst trouble, trying to use BBC on my Snap (ROM MAPL_3VOLUTION_WM65_3VO.1.60.090209) but after install BBC SW (BBConnect_WM5_Smartphone_BB) and restart device as per request, my Snap gets bricked on the startup (WM6 3evo logo) and only way to recover is reinstall entire mentioned ROM again.
Installed BBC Desktop on my PC, it works but is not able to connect my Snap due to SW not installed on mobile.
Tried to HardSpl original manufacturer ROM (Movistar Spain in my case) also gets bricked, probably due to my previously installed "Dash3G HardSPL1.19 by JockyW" required to flash mentioned ROM MAPL_3VOLUTION_WM65_3VO.1.60.090209.
Each BBC installation test takes me a lot of time to recover system
Any help would really appreciated.
Kind regards.
Found a site with more information, testing but no chance due to I'm not able to find compatible mobile/ROM version:

what full rom version you using?
what network you on?

has this been happening long time or recently?
it has been happening recently it was more common before the sms fix, its not all sms's just sometimes,and sometimes i dont recieve the sms at all
i am in uk, on o2 network, using the htc 1.66 rom, the one off the htc website,
i am SO close to selling this and getting an iphone
Give O2 a ring, I had this issue with my Nokia E90, and it turned out to be a corrupt message on their servers.

its a network problem genrally
delayed sms sound
I have similar problem on htc iolite since the new coocket roo303oom. The message sound is delayed to when i unlock my screen.
Im having exactly the same problem. Im on o2 uk and its really starting to get on my tits.
I sometimes get them an hour or 2 after they are sent, yet they are date stamped with the time they were actually sent. Did you manage to get to the root of the problem? I called o2 weeks ago about it and they just suggested i try a new sim, which they promptly sent me but it has made absolutely no difference. Is this a phone problem or a network problem?
Both of you on O2, I doubt it's got something to do with the phone.
sort of same issue with my HTC HD2 on Voda UK.
MEssages being sent or recived are not arriving on my phone!!
thinking of getting rid of phone now!!
just to annoy you mine works fine on virgin in the uk
Mine works fine on T-Mobile too
SMS delay
could somebody PLEASE find a fix for this !!!,

this is a widespread problem with htc's , if u google , late sms, you wil find, people on all networks are having this problem
i have contacted them and they say it could be the phone
Hi everybody,
I'm still experiencing this problem. That happened after the last ROM upgrade (see attached screenshot for current versions).
The message arrived a couple of hours later. Not it's about 24 hours or I don't receive the messages at all.
This might be a coincidence, but I often was browsing with Opera when the messages finally showed up.
I'm using Zenyee disable htc messaging 1.2 as I'm syncing with an Exchange 2010.
It's definitely not the provider, but the phone. I've put my simcard in a standard cell phone where the messages arrived in an instant.
Anybody got an idea?
It not the network, its a file in HTC phones. I havent been able to figure out what was causing it until now. I am 90% sure I know the culprit, but I am not 100% sure. I am on a TP2 and I just ran across this problem today after I installed a cooked rom I made, before everything was fine. I am in the process of testing this theory out. I should have a better idea by either days end, or at latest by tomorrow. I am testing 3 packages out at the moment to see if my theory is correct.
Will keep you posted.
I have the same problem too or sometimes I only get the text if I unlock the phone then I get 3 texts at once also sending text if it has more then 160 but less than 180 (i think ) then ppl don't seem to get my text weird no lol
I've had this problem in my HTC Trinity...
Fortunately I don't have it in the Leo...
