active sync

I just upgraded from the Sprint PPC 6700 to the NEW Sprint Mogul (PPC 6800) and encountered the same Active Sync RNDIS / USB issue that has been plagueing everyone else. Both HTC and Sprint's website is of no help on this PDA phone from a "download software" perspective.

I solved this problem using the ActiveSyncMode.sa.CAB downloaded as indicated in the above posts from the UT Starcom site for the PPC 6700. Since that worked splendidly for the PPC 6700 with Windows Mobile 5.0 and the fact that I am just plain destructive, I decided to give it a go with my brand spanky new Sprint Mogul (PPC 6800). That same "ActiveSyncMode.sa.CAB" seems to work with the Sprint Mogul (PPC 6800) and Windows Mobile 6 as well.

I downloaded the "ActiveSyncMode.sa.CAB" (originally specified for the PPC 6700) and copied it over to my tiny little flash card on the PPC 6800. I ran it from the "File Explorer", it loaded without errors, and magically showed up under the "Programs" area. I launched it and changed the settings to "USB" instead of "RNDIS" and voila, it magically synced with my Outlook, while my corporate Firewall software and VPN were both active! Problem solved so far, until it blows up for some weird incompatibility reason down the road in a few weeks... fingers crossed. Again I do not know if this is "Officially Supported" but it seems to work.

Cheers,
