Re: Randomize working - Activesync 4.2 Beta & Windows Mobile 2005

I Used a XDA II mini with Mobile Windows 2003 64mg ROM and he/she didn't
have these problems.

Now I decided to change for a Torq P120 with Mobile Windows 2005 with 128 mb
ROM and it is a hell to synchronize.

I have + - 1000 contacts and he don't get to synchronize nor 600

He/she locks periodically

What do make??? Do I go back to the old?? The microsoft doesn't talk
anything about this, million in investment and thousands of programmers and
nothing works well!!!

e está um inferno sincronizar.

Tenho +- 1000 contatos e ele não consegue sincronizar nem 600

Trava periodicamente

O que faço ??? Volto para o antigo ?? A microsoft não fala nada sobre isto,
milhões em investimento e milhares de programadores e nada funciona bem!!!

Hi :

I recently bought a new Dell Axim X51V PDA. I was a 'more or less' happy
user of Dell Axim X5, windows mobile 2002 & activesync 3.8, which few
times
had some USB problems to synch, but normally worked OK.

Now, with the new PDA, I feel like a Beta tester, using a 'beta' version
of
Windows Mobile 2005 with a beta Activesync 4.1 (or 4.2). I see miles of
mails
in different world forums, too many people asking why are so many problems
to
sync through USB, and why Microsoft decided to forget about synch through
Wireless wifi, a very fast and confortable method used for so many users.
Why
Microsoft deleted the Schedule button just for Windows Mobile 2005 (it was
very useful with Windows Mobile 2002).

My panorama :

Two PC's (home and work) equipped with Windows XP, SP2 and the last
updates,
Activesync 4.1 or 4.2 Beta, correct setup for firewall and antivirus,
ethernet services like share deleted.

Home PC -> impossible to sync through USB. I usually did through wireless
with my old Dell Axim X5... but now I can not because I have activesync
4.1
and can not use older versions because they don't work with Windows Mobile
2005... Microsoft just inform you about 'no wireless possible' in few
lines
losted inside some big web page... So I had to buy a bluetooth-usb
adapter.
Now I can sync my new Dell Axim X51V through Bluetooth-usb adapter. (no
wireless wifi, no USB dock station).

Work PC -> I use USB dockstation to sync. No problem with my old Dell Axim
X5, but very difficult with Dell Axim X51V.
One of every 25 tries (or more) will work. The other 24 tries it will be
impossible to sync, with different results.

I send you some Ethereal sniffers from USB-Ethernet done while trying to
sync Dell Axim X51v PDA with work PC, wishing you'll find why it doesn't
work
and solve all the problems in version 4.3 as soon as possible. Please
contact
me if you need these files in a different format.

(files not really sended in this forum, if you would like to have them
please contact me)

Sended Files :

01.cap - Activesync does 'Connecting-Connected-Looking for
changes-Synchronizing' but stops at half done, showing disconnected.
02.cap - Activesync does connecting and after a long time shows error
'Critical communications... try reseting PDA...'
03.cap - Activesync does connecting and after a long time shows error
'Critical communications... try reseting PDA...'
04.cap - ActiveSync does Connecting-Connected-Looking for changes and 20
minuts later the message will be 'Looking for changes' so we'll stop.
05.cap - Activesync does 'Connecting-Connected-Looking for
changes-Synchronizing' but stops at half done, showing disconnected.
06.cap - Activesync does 'Connecting-Connected-Looking for
changes-Synchronizing' and finally Connected (so information has updated).
The connection will die in aprox. 2 minutes anyway.
07.cap - ActiveSync does Connecting-Connected-Looking for changes and 20
minuts later the message will be 'Looking for changes' so we'll stop.
08.cap - ActiveSync will be 'Connecting' for evermore after entering
password, but really is doing nothing.
09.cap - ActiveSync takes a long time in 'Connecting' and finally shows
error 'Sync can not be completed succesfully.
10.cap - Activesync does 'Connecting-Connected-Looking for
changes-Synchronizing' and finally Connected (so information has updated).
The connection will die in aprox. 2 minutes anyway.

Just once a week Activesync does 'Connecting-Connected-Looking for
changes-Synchronizing-Connected' and finnally mantains the connection for
hours and hours allowing to explore files and install new software. All
the
other times it's impossible to install nothing because you'll loose the
connection while...

Please, I understand I'm not alone with all this problems, miles of users
are having similar problems because of inestabilities of Activesync, I
wish
your programmers and designers will be serious and responsibles and try to
solve all this urgently.

Best regards,

Paco Plus
