activesync
 
activesync wont sync my contacts, calender, etc.

I've been trying to fix this for a while now and it just wont work, following all the instructions that i found online but nothing seems to work. Activesync just keeps telling me to install outlook when its already installed!!!

Do any of you know a fix for this bc i really want to sync my contacts and upgrade from my ancient rom!!!

thanks guys

you can use another program to sync such as sprite or dashwire. those will sync your contacts and can replace them after a flash.

thanks a million lilbitz!!!

if i flash a new rom and sync, will it put my contacts and other things back on or will it do the other way around?

Re: activesync
 
youre welcome and yes its amazing! lol

when you reflash. run the cab again and log in and it will run your pics and stuff back from the dashwire server to your phone. so the answer is everything being backed up will be replaced...minus the texts (they're only stored on the server)

I just started use Microsoft My Phone, and it works really well thus far, keeping a complete list of contacts, appointments, tasks, and all photos and documents stored in the My Documents folder. Plus it keeps a copy of the texts you have on your phone!

Oh, and you can log in on a computer and add contacts, appointments and tasks, and next time you update it syncs it with your phone!

EDIT * Woo hoo My first Thanks! :-D

Re: activesync
 
Thats exactly what Dashwire does [=
from the website you can even send and receive texts even if you're not around your phone.
As you take a pic it pops up in dashwire. same with texting.

lilbitz_1018 06-20-2009 06:24 PM

Re: activesync

see attachment. and to my knowledge its just like flashing to unlock. but it just locks it back up. dont forget to go back to stock rom and radio.

Re: activesync
 
Quick question lilbitz, does it use only the carrier network? I went to sign up and there is a check box you have to click that says "I understand that Dashwire uses the carrier data network and have an unlimited data plan" but I don't have ANY data plan. I would like to try it (the settings feature sounds cool) but don't want to get charged for data useage. Can you set it to use only WiFi?

Re: activesync
 
I'm not 100% sure. but I've used wifi with it. try it out on wifi

Stupid question, but are you "uploading" all your private information online? Where, if a hacker wanted, it can be viewed by someone other than you without your permission? If so, it sounds unsafe, any encryption, SSL, or some "protection"?

Sorry for the stupid question...

lol, any info you have on your phone can be viewed by someone at any given time unless the file itself is encrypted, but if you encrypted it wiht a program that's on the ppc, the person could use that program to un-encrypt it. so there's no point to worry about it because any decent hacker could hack into your phone the way it is!

Dude, that's scary, but encryption must work; else we would have some many hackers getting into phone with online banking enabled program. Again, I am assuming that the banks have more at stake and tested the encryption thorough enough to offer online banking that they don't have to worry about being sue for "unprotected/ hack'able" solutions.

Anyone else with a pro/con against encryption programs and their validity?

I signed up and downloaded Dashwire, but I do not see any settings anywhere that I can specify to work via Wi-Fi. Anyone here know anything? I checked their forum and couldn't get any answers, and when I tried posting got a 404, so I sent them a support request. If they get back with me I will post the solution here but I'm not holding my breath.

Re: activesync
 
Update - Dashwire got in touch with me, and said that it uses whichever connection is open, if WiFi is open that is what it uses. Since I have my Data disabled (both through NoData and through Diamond Tweak) I should be ok.
