DirectPush & Notification OK

Dear All,
I have tested TWO Universal and an Wizard with this configuration:
Universal with M5000 Orange UK ROM (Orange CH)
Wizard with T-Mobile Rom 2.17..7.2 WWE (Swisscom CH)
The DirectPush work perfect with my Exchange Server 2003 SP2. The New E-mail notification took 2-3 sec to arrive to the device since the exchange server received the e-mail.
When the device is switched on I see the notification message on the screen and I hear the sound.
When the devide is in standby i hear the sound and the vibrating device with blinking led, but the screen remains off.
Traffic: I have tested only 2 hours but I have seen that the device use 5-7 kb / hours with 0 e-mail.
Thank you very much to all xda staff!!

OK - I will bite on this one. How is your setup different from that of (I believe) every other Wizard owner who does not receive vibrating notificatios of an incoming email when the device is in standby (i.e., both backlight and screen are off)? I would really like to know as this is a major problem for me, and several others, as discussed on a number of threads.

Hi matchtrader,
First to know is that my first device is a Qtek9100.
Yesterday I downloaded the
186504-ruu_9100_2170702_21707102_20710_qtek_wwe_ship.exe
and upgrade my Qtek.
With this release I had some problem with push (e-mail take 10 minutes or more).
After that I made some check on my exchange, just disabled the security. I made sure my account has Uptodate rights (user management)
After that I downloaded this ROM:
CUSTOM_RUU_Prodigy_2170702_217_20710_TMO_US.exe
After the update I just set the notification "new e-mail message" to vibrate and blink.
If I can help someone I can set up some Exchange accounts to test
I work with an Exchange 2003 SP2 on Windows Server Enterprise 2003 R2 with Microsoft ISA 2006 Server Enterprise in loadbalancing (2 servers)

Just to be clear on this, if you put your device in standby (screen off), and send yourself an email, the device will vibrate when the email is pushed to your device?
You seem to be the only one of hundreds that this actually works for.

quick question:
When you go into activesync and tap menu followed by schedule, do you see an additional link to set for "as items arrive" or do you only see an Adjust peak times to fit your schedule link. These links are at the bottom of the screen btw..

mine will make a sound and vibrate in Standby mode ONLY if I have the Outlook client hidden or closed in other words it works if you have the mail client on the background or closed at all

fx4rover -- I am assuming you have the AKU2 ROM upgrade applied? What you are saying doesn't work for me and to my knowledge hasn't seemed to work for anyone else using what I understand to be the latest Qtek or K-Jam ROMS. Thanks.

On ActiveSync I see only one link at the bottom: "adjust peak times".
The first time I set up an account I see two links, but I've noticed that this happan if Exchange 2003 isn't configured for Push.
The first time The DirectPush button is pressed, the Device check if the server accept push and remove the other link where you can set the SMS address of the device...
When my phone is in Standby Mode and I receive an e-mail, I hear the sound, the phone vibrate e I see the light flashing... but the screen remains off and the phone remains in standby mode till i press the power button...
This works with my device and other 2 M5000 configured on our server...

This is strange. Does anyone else running the T-Mobile ROM see this behaviour? Cerainly neither the K-jam ROM nor the Q-Tek ROM works this way as documented in numerous threads.

Yes I do have the update with the DirectPush, and since I applied the upgrade it has been working fine, I just need to have the mail client on the background, if I have it in front the notification will not work
this is the file that I used fot my phone, a Cingular 8125 :CUSTOM_RUU_WIZARD_217_AKU2_CINGULAR_WWE.exe

@summiter:
Is the rom that fox4rover installed your Qtek based AKU2 customization for the Cingular 8125?
@fox4rover:
I have been unable to reproduce your success on my Qtek equipped 8125. I can get the light to flash, but vibrate doesn't work when I'm in standby mode. I specifically started outlook and made sure it was running in the background.
I have verified that if outlook is the foreground app then notifications seem to be completely disabled. That appeared to be the case on my original ROM when running AUTD1.0 as well.
@moressi:
Ok, I'm convinced you have AUTDv2.0 based direct push up and running on your device. Could the T-Mobile AKU2 ROM actually contain the vibrate fix?

well i'm using the exact same ROM (the Qtek 2.17 customized for Cingular ROM) and on standby (even with outlook in the background) i don't get the vibrate at all. i DO however get the LED flashing, but that's it. MS has said that they did not add this feature to save battery life.

Can someone please send me the instructions on how to set up push mail. I upgraded my 8125 to this ROM yesterday...
Qtek ROM RUU with CING Splash:
ftp://xda:[email protected]/Up...s/CUSTOM_RUU_WIZARD_217_AKU2_CINGULAR_WWE.exe
after doing so I see new options in the COMM manager and I see an icon that appears to be a push email icon but when I try to select it it just stays greyed out, won;t do anything. Could someone please help me get this set up.
Thanks,
Geno

Have you tried setting it up through Active Sync by entering your exchange server settings when creating a new partnership?

I sure didn't. Do I need to create a new partnership to do this?

there's PLENTY of threads on how to properly enable push e-mail. but the gist is:
connect to an exchange server that has SP2 AND push e-mail enabled. enter the server settings in active sync on your phone (or desktop), then sync. push e-mail should automatically be enabled when you sync, and just make sure the push e-mail icon in teh comm manager is enabled. that's it.

I'm sure their are other ways to do it, but I do it by creating a partenership via active sync on my laptop. You also need to make sure that push email is enabled on your and exchange server and it is running SP2.

Yep that's the ROM I built.
As for the T-MO AKU2 ROM, it is based on the QTek (as is mine), so its exactly the same save for the customizations in extended ROM.

One important note is that if you enter the SMS address for push, you will get an SMS charge for every e-mail retrieved. I noticed that this morning with my T-Mo service.
Unless there is a way to get around it... What is your guys' experience with this? Is there a way to not have to enter the device's address?

If you have to enter an SMS address for push, you don't have the latest ROM.

How to activate Push Email on Qtek 9100??

Hello Everyone,
I just installed the latest Rom to my Qtek 9100 this evening.I wanted to setup the push email in the communication manager section and the button is greyed out? Any idea how to activate the push email feature so it can be set up?
Thanks in Advance!!

All you do si:
start - programs - activesync
once there you have to set up a server source.
Push e-mail works with exchange server, if you haven't got a server do a search on the forum as some people offer a free service or goto www.4smartphones.net they have a subscription service that works well (they do a seven day trial).
Good luck

Use this..
You can use the free service provided by Mail2web.com, they have explained the full process too. I am using it, flawless as of now.

Kerio's latest mailserver, version 6.3.0, also supports activesync and direct push. Running it on my own server for two weeks now with no problems .

WM6 and Exchange email issue

I'm using the Orwell WM6 rom and having problem syncing email with Exchange via GPRS. I can sync calendar and contacts with no problem and desktop sync is ok for email. But everytime I sync 'over the air' my email inbox ends up empty.
It all works perfectly with WM5.
I've read a few posts about problems with Exchange sync but haven't seen any solutions. Does anyone know how to fix this? This might be the only thing that sends me back to WM5 and I really don't want to do that unless I have to.
Thanks.

I tried to reproduce this error but have not been able to... I am using the PDAVIET3 WM6 ROM though, I use push-email and havent had a single issue with this ROM. Maybe you might want to try that wm6 version ( or pdaviet4 )
cheers

hmm I wonder if its because my Exchange is 2003 SP1. I sync on a schedule rather than push. Maybe SP2 is needed to sync with Exchange mail. Its a work server so I have no say in getting it upgraded.
I'll try one of the pdaviet roms. Thanks for the suggestion.

See if your IT guy can run through the settings. The only thing I could think of is he might not have the "Enable unsupported devices" checked. The screen below is of an Exchange server with SP2 installed. I assume that option is also in SP1.

Exchange 2003 SP2 is required to have Pushmail available, the scheduled synch should already work with SP1

I'd have your IT guy check the event logs on the Exchange box ...
I know it's not your decision but I'd really enjoy hearing the rational of your IT dept not installing SP2...
I remember when SP4 for NT blew up several of my servers (gotta love that BSOD!) but this update has been out for over a year and is considered critical.. and quite stable. Actually more stable than SP1...

Thanks for those suggestions guys. But it looks like I've got it fixed.
Before flashing one of the pdaviet roms I thought I'd hard reset the Orwell rom and see if that made a differance. And email is now syncing sweetly!
To make it even stranger, before the hard reset I found I could sync my sent items in email if I enabled that, just not the main inbox. Really strange.
I'm now reluctant to add any of the fixes in the Orwell rom for camera, mms etc. just in case they give me the old problem. But who cares. Exchange email sync is number 1 on my list.
Cheers.

Active Sync Problems with Exchange Server on Touch Diamond

Hi All-
I am looking for advise as I have problems synchronizing my emails with Active Sync. I am using a HTC Diamond with Windows Mobile Version 6.1. My current ROM on the device is 1.37.407.2 GER and the ROM Date is 06/15/08. I am using this with a Exchange Server. I am experiencing a problem while sending emails from my device. When I hit the “Send” button then the email will be sent two or more times and it keeps staying at the “Outbox Folder”. When Looking at Active Sync – it freeze and I will get a white screen. I was able to synchronize the calendar and contacts without any problems.
I am wondering if someone knows this problem and could provide me advice on how I could get this resolved.
MANY THANKS!
Thomas

We've seen this happening, apparently MS have a hotfix in the works for exchange 2007

The same problem here !!! I had to unistall my exchange configuration !!

I do have Exchange 2007 and is no problem here like you did mentioned above, but I do have another problem, from time to time is asking me for restart and tell me "Recent changes was made to your configuration...". I did not find anything on web about this ... My guess is that is enforcing the policy to the phone but why is asking for restart so many times ?

Only e2k7 configurations which use ISA to publish EAS externally will have the problem - so you can either wait for the patch, or get the infrastructure changed to remove ISA.
As for your policy keep being reapplied - are you using a stock rom and/or the util that changes the reg keys to disable the policy settings?

I'm using SBS Exchange and everything is working fine

[Q] Q: Exchange server

Hi guys,
Shoot me if this particular issue has shown up somewhere... (couldnt find it)
I am having problems connecting to the exchange server at work. My company has a very high security standard.
They have you digitally agree to usage conditions, and then have to activate you somewhere on a firewall...
They are using WOSH (whatever that is) ?
Now officially they said it would be only for rotten Apple phones. However i was told in confidence by enterprise application support it would work on any phone having exchange capabilties.
I have tried several programs: k9, touchdown, and now that standard android one.
In the guide to set it up for apple the information to enter is almost the same:
I now try with settings/accounts/add acount
email adress:
[email protected]
password:
Abcd1234
Next it fails and continues with:
domain/username
servercorp/firstletterlastname (1st letter of your first name + 7 of your last name)
password:
Abcd1234
Server:
wosh.server.com
Then there are options for using SSL
Use secured SSL connection
Accept all SSL certificates
here it mentions some ID: androidc2398921038
Client Certificate
This is how far I get, the guide continues with having to set a PIN after succesfull connection.... ?
I tried many permentations, in all cases I get "could not connect to server", i checked the server (wosh.server.com) it does resolve but does not allow ping.
Particulars / questions:
In the guide from work it does not mention SSL settings (and I tried with and without). In the guide there is a seperate field for Domain. The domain/username field shows up like that but in the prefilled example it show the slash backward instead of forward (\ vs /) I tried both to no avail.
Is there something specific to how apple phones identify themselves ? Can I mimmick that ? Could it be that kind off ID ?
Since they are so security sensitive could it be i need a client certifcate (it is not mentioned in the guide) ?
Are there any tests (telnet ?) i can do to find out the correct settings/changes ?
It is alot, I know, hope someone has an idea ?

So which client are you using now? This one?
If so format under Manual setup is:
domain\loginid
account pw
server.domain.ext
Use SSL
Accept All SSL
The ASOP client linked above supports (and ignores) most Exchange Policies.
If that doesn't work it's server related, it may pay to check in one of these threads but I don't know if they'll help with server issues:

yup using that one,
checking the other threads you posted..

hmmm,
In this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=12005679&postcount=49
you post some code aswell, do i need to use that to install the email.apk ? i just copied to sd and installed from there...
For starters I would like the policies implemented, scary i know, but at least I will adhere to company policies
Is there a way to check the device ID ? seems like different apps send different device IDs

Yes, it needs to run from /system/app/ so you'll need to follow the instructions on that page or use Root Explorer to drop it in there.
If you want one with Exchange Policies implemented you'll need to get a stock Froyo one from a custom rom somewhere (my Nexus ROM has it, see sig but make sure you get the CM6/Froyo version).
Not sure about device ID.

well I put the app on system app, using the sdk, seems fine only still not possible to use the exchange server....

Has anyone managed to get Excange Server to work?
I get it to work the first ½ hour (mail appears quickly, but calender and contacts takes quite some time to load).
Now the issues:
- After about ½ hour it cannot sync anymore unless removing and reinstalling Exchange Server. What is the trick?
- I do not get to understand why all my contacts disapear if I remove Exchange Server. Any way to have them saved?
- I cannot edit my appointments, only add alarms. Perhaps another calender program?
- Can the different calenders (google, outlook and LG PC sync) be merged
Phone just hard reset and only Exchange Server activated. Without the Exchange Server I do not want to keep the phone. At the same time it works fine on my Wildfire (from where I comy the settings) and on my Touch Diamond.
