Did you make sure your start.txt is read-only using total commander???

How did you format the card? I've read that any microsoft tool will mess up android. There were some other sd formatting tools mentioned like one from HP.

This sounds like the EXACT same problem the RHOD100 guys are having as well. No resolution for them yet unfortunately.

I have a RHOD400 and haven't been able to recreate the issue... Have you tried a different SD card...?

Oh I almost forgot - they said if they go back to the kernel from 10.23 it's fine & boots. Can you confirm/deny?

There is also a known issue on some activesync implementations that don't do well with incomplete contacts where you don't have a first name or last name filled out. You could take a look at that as well.

Also, I can tell you that if you are syncing with a real Exchange server that is still running 2003, you may hit major performance problems when you have over 5,000 contacts in your primary address book.

I think answer number one is closer to the real problem. I do use notes extensively, with pictures and resumes. However, that being said, I can sync all the contacts with exchange and active sync in WinMo 6.5 without any problem and all the notes come across, but not the pics.

Well remember, Android doesn't have the same Exchange support WinMo does for obvious reasons.

Based on your knowledge of Android, would a devoted Android phone work better in this regard? Say a Motorola A855? Or is the issue not that it's running non-natively, it's just that Android doesn't work as well with Exchange?

I would say it's a limit with Android, not with our port. I doubt an actual Android phone would handle it any better.

With that said, I genuinely do not know - and it sounds like you have a very unique situation. Might try to corner a friend with an Android phone and see how it sync's with your unwieldy contact list. I don't think I could say I even "know" 1,000 people, let alone have them all in my contact list!!
