ActiveSync weirdness
Hi,
ActiveSync is behaving a little weirdly.
For example, in the TELUS Stock ROM, I _think_ I remember seeing a setting which basically allowed me to run a full sync (like manually hitting the sync button) every few minutes.
Subsequent custom ROMs do not have that setting (unless I never saw such a setting on stock ROM to begin with, those hrooms...).
Anyway, long story short. My Activesync sometimes kept going on a "sleep mode" (I call it sleep mode, don't confuse yourself). What happens in this sleep mode is, and there is no set pattern, that suddenly, activesync doesn't get the push email like it should. It's not the Exchange server, so don't even go there (because it works for my PC outlook, and now works for an associate oo). It does a few minutes/hours later.
I looked in the OWA (Outlook Web Access), which is basically like a web mail interface to my exchange email. In there I saw patterns of 25-30 minute syncs. Meaning it shows that my phone sync'd at 6.30, and then it sync'd at 6.59. Then at 7.28, and then at 8.01. So, it's not a set number of minutes obviously.. then what is it?! My settings are set to "As items arrive" even for the non-peak.
Then, I just installed ActiveSync on my PC when connected via USB and did the scheduling via the PC, and set my offpeak checks to 10 mins, and peak hours to as items arrive. I proceed to check my OWA for sync gaps, and weirdly, syncs have happened every 4-6 minutes.
Now, I'm still watching it.. the last sync was at 9.40PM. It's now 9.47PM, and nothing so far. Before this it sync'd at 9.34PM and at 9.30 before that. So if it has that patten, it should have sync'd by now! lol
I think I'm going crazy with this kinda attitude I'm getting from ActiveSync, "I'll do what I want, when I want!".
9.49PM and no sync.. submitting this post now.
