Activesync SSL - MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading

Does anyone know the setting on 2005 to disable ActiveSync from checking to see if a ssl is valid and just to trust that it is? I have a cab from MS that does it on 2000 and 2003 but am a little afraid to try it since I upgraded.

I tried certchk.exe from MS which worked on 2003SE, but it didn't work. I'd like to find a solution as well.

I was able to add my root cert to WM5 using the instructions at:
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;841060
So far it is working well.

avantogo problem on AS 4.0

active sync 4.0 is not able to add avantgo servers am i not wrong about this? anyway to solve this? or do i have to revert back to 3.8?
I have the same problem. It still works under 3.8 as I have this installed on another machine. Does anyone know how to get this working under AS 4.0
You people are right, I had same problem…..to be honest I did not realizes that it is happening after upgrading to active Sync.4.0
At the end I was forced to uninstall avantgo,….and I am missing it now….please help us in this matter
go to avantgo website - they have a patch.
I'm obviously missing something as it doesn't work for me. I've tried manually adding a server to the server page of the Avantgo connect page - but it does not save the settings. Running the AgPPCEN.exe doesn't seem to do much but ionstall another version of Avantgo - even it's cant save changes to the Avantgo Connect server settings.
I've also got troubles. The only way to refresh avantgo was to do it manually on the device whilst docked.
I miss being able to sync avantgo thru activesync.
Anyone got any ideas?
Patch is here btw, Avantgo Patch
Avantgo activsync 4 & wm5 & XP
I am running an XP machine with activsync 4 and wm5 on the XDAII and I still can not get avantgo to sync
I'm running patched AG on XPpro with AS4 and it worked out of the box.

To make your BA compatable with Vista download Windows Mobile Device Center Driver Update from offsite.Choose the package?depending what OS you running - x86 or x64! And you will be able to sync all your contacts,data,programs...
Windows Mobile Device Center replaced Activesync in Vista.
I had the same problem, with the orginal Windows Mobil Device Manager which you get with vista you can only sync files, but nothing else.
You have to download Mobil Device Manager Beta 3, after installing this one you can make a full sync with your pda.

i did just that..but as soon as i plug in my BA sync center makes an error nd i get the close or debug window...whatever i do..it remains open nd u can browse and sync pictures but no contacts or installations...nd activesync on my BA wont connect..its always waiting for network!
if u use wm5 on your ba try this setting on your ba: start => settings => connections => usb to pc = and check "enabe advanced network functionaliity"

thanks guys the update worked a treat on my xda2`s with helmi upgrade
its already enabled....i've been tweaking with setting for a month now (i've had vista for 2 months) nd i cant get it to work :S
i think there's some service in vista thats disabled or something..i just cant figure it out...btw...i also have office 2007 (outlook) if that helps...if anyone knows of something else that can sync my contacts with outlook plz tell me.
btw..helmi...u took the data backup prog from ur latest rom..where can i get it from?
Hello, you are sure you have e release version of vista?, because i sync my pda every day with my computer with the things i told here, you can try die delete the device from devicemanager and let the system find it with the new drivers form the mobil device manager beta 3.
After i istall the MDM3 my system find a new deivce and install it.
Somting is wrong with your system.
I use outlook 2002 on vista, it's a little bit buggy ( every startup it want make a new profil), but i have not a newer one.
Greets MonsyX
yeah i have the pre-release final version..build 6000...but it seems that there's something buggy with the installation...i'm gonna reinstall windows nd see wat happens.
thx.
Theres no such thing as a pre-release final version!
You have the final version which was released 30th November 2006 to large companies, and to the general public on the 30th January 2007.
i have the final version...but i got it before nov30....which makes it pre-release...anyways its the same windows....the final build...nd thats not the point of my question!
anyone knows anything abt the backup program that used to come with helmi's rom?

just as a reminder, this tool will not let u restore the backup on different version of wm5.
say you backup on aku3.2, then u upgrade to aku3.5, the restore would not work.
ActiveSync is a better tool to backup contacts, calendar ......

OK i will say to everyone that official presentation of vista and office2007 is after few hours, so comments like i have vista from microsoft legally are just ridiculous, and the ridiculous part is not that someone have it, but that this someone do not know how to connect hes pocketpc to it. Only people that have vista before the official launch are large OEMs and Small group of beta testers which recieved thir copies as reward of beta testing. These are the two legal ways of having vista.
[/offtopic]
I got mine through the Beta program. It wasn't released on 30th November by the way, its original release was 8th November to MSDN subscribers.
/ontopic - I do however have a lot of problems with the Sync Center and my BA. I've not actually got it to sync properly yet on RTM.
Has anyone got any thoughts on the new system? Does the ActiveSync replacement:
1) allow more than one device to be connected?
2) avoid duplicate items?
Cheers!

@Biohead: yeah i forgot about MSDN subscribers you are right, but I am mad about that everyone claims that they have licensed vista and they are not MVP's, MSDN Subscribers, Technical Beta Testers or OEM's, why they are trying to lie, i was in the beta test, i have tested every version provided on connect, and i have not recieved a copy of vista, maybe guys who provided more bugs had copys. whatever i will buy it maybe after SP1 because it really needs a lot of patching. Vista is not what it was promissed to be(look at longhorn demos a way back and you will understand what i mean)
Ontopic:
I have problems with it too, The first time it syncs fine, after that it does not work at all or crash upon connecting.The temporary Fifx for this is remove the WMDC and reinstall it. I think it is not BA specific issue it is all WM device specific one. How we can not have problems with activesync under XP?

i dont know how valid this is right now...since vista is already out...but here's proof that my version is genuine...
i could send u pics of the intallation cds if u want!
anyway...all i needed to know is whether the sync center was buggy or not...nd it seems that i'm not the only one with this problem....btw...a simple solution to this problem would be to install TinyXP on a Vmware workstation nd sync ur BA on that...its a hassle...but it works.
Remember, Sync Center IS STILL IN BETA!!!

Extract App from WM6 Rom

Now that we have a WM6 Rom avaliable for the Wizard, does anyone know how to extract certain programs and replace them in the WM5 Roms??
Particularly the Email client and Remote Desktop
Now you may ask why the he!! don't you just use the WM6 Rom?
Because I am in a corporate environment where I use the program provided by the company to both sync and access my information (Lotus Notes) Intellisync and OneBridge and neither of those have support for the yet to be "Officially Released" WM6
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Well, bad and good news for you. First of all, what you are asking probably will not work. Good news is, you DONT NEED SUPPORT!~!! WM6 is STILL CE5, its just a minor upgrade (like windows 98 to windows98se). So.... most likely your programs will function perfectly. It is very rare when a wm5 program does not function in wm6 and useually those are system tweaking programs. I would make a complete backup of your device and try wm6.... you might be pleasantly surprised.
But moving apps from Crossbow/WinMob 6/5.2 to WinMob 5 isn't as easy and depends on how they were compiled. Most MS stuff won't work without modification I think.

Cant open attachments with WM 6.1

I have an unlocked Tilt I am running on the T-mobile network. I have managed to get some cooked roms on it, and they seem to run fine except one problem. With all the WM 6.1 roms i have tried, including the stock HTC rom (probably 4 or 5 total), I cannot open an attachment from email. It gives me the opportunity to download it, and it looks like it does, but nothing happens. I have hard reset, but this problem still persists. Right now i am running the stock AT&T WM 6.0 rom without the extra/trial junk it installs, because it does not have this problem, and i need this feature to work for my job. Does anyone know what may be causing this? Thanks in advance.
Problem solved. Sort of....
After extensive research into this problem, i finally found the solution. Thanks PaulW! It seems that this is an issue with WM 6.1 phones syncing with Exchange server that also has the citrix licensing server installed. The isapi_redirect.dll file in the Tomcat web server that Citrix Licensing Server installed is interfering with the activesync functions. when i disabled citrix licensing server and restarted IIS, all works as expected. Hopefully MS or Citrix will come up with a fix soon. I will post back if i find out something else. We have moved the licensing server to another machine temporarily as a workaround.

Any chance you have a copy of PaulW's modified dll file?

Worked for me.

GPS in Vista

hi all, I've just done the full on upgrade to functioning GPS, I can see from the GPS tool that it is working, Google maps is messing me about and refusing to download and install so I went to vista, I have autoroute 2007 but I can't get it to hook to the GPS, can someone out there point me in the right direction.
I can Sync with the WM side, I can browse it, but for the life of me I have no idea how to hook to the com port.
please help and keep up all the good work

Buy Franson's GPSGate for Vista and WinMo (costs you about $49). Install GPSGatePPC and GPSGate on WinMo and Vista. Configure GPSGatePPC on WinMo side to work on ActiveSync. Then Configure on Vista Side to recognize GPS on ActiveSync. Now ActiveSync using USBTool and run AutoRoute.
Thanks
Ram
so theres no way yet of doing it without buying software? I'll struggle on to find a way of getting google maps onto the WM side. and wait for a free option.

You have to liberate the shift to be able to install cab's like google maps... even with rom upgrade you still have to liberate the shift...
I used thaihugo's package, which is already liberated, it just seems not to complete the download, I've tried it on my phone and thats not playing either, there seems to be no way to get the cab from a pc either which is a pain in the backside.
I'll keep digging.

Hi Dammo
Did you update the registry setting to allow Shift to install cab files on WinMo side?
If not read the second page on thaihugo's ROM thread. This will allow you to install cabs.
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\cabfile\Shell\Open\Command and its value should be wceload.exe "%1" /nodelete
Please notice the space before and after quotes.
thanks
Ram
ok, so call me dummy, thank you.
That's why I told you to liberate. If you do MODACO procedure you don't have to mess with registry
It's a whole lot easier to just change one registry value with the tools already provided, than to go through the whole liberation procedure.

I know that but for unexperienced users I think it's easier, because for installing the ROM they had to liberate it before.
