I have followed threads above and installed new o2 ROM on my XDA mini S. Active Sync shows that it has synchornised but is not adding contacts, calender, notes and tasks to the XDA. It does pick up favourites though. Any ideas please on how to get sync working fully, I have checked and rechecked settings on phone and active synch. (I did the soft reset during RoM install as suggested to lose the O2 Active, also tried install in corporate - all same for me...)
try to re-install activesync 4.1, then sync it again. Good luck!

Hi all, I had to hard reset my XdaIIi, but I had previously set the permanent save on my contacts, but when it finished setting up I tried to retrieve the contacts but it didnt work
I've also had the phone syncronised with my PC and have the past three partnerships still on it, is there anyway I can retrieve my contacts?
thanks
Whenever I've done a hard reset of my stuff, I've just done an ActiveSync before resetting it or flashing the ROM... When I've got my phone back to working order again on a fresh installation, I've just ActiveSynced again, and bingo - all my contacts, files, calendar, AvantGo files have appeared with no problem.
To do that, I've just set up a new full relationship, and ActiveSync has taken care of the rest. The only thing I've had to backup myself has been my SMSes... Of course, if you didn't have your Contacts selected as one of the things to synchronise with your PC every time you synced, you're straight outta luck.
Hi rmurph17,
:lol: you are not straight outta luck :lol:
Do the following if u have already Synced your XDA with outlook before resetting:
1. Delete all your partnerships from your PC's ActiveSync without pluging the XDA
2. Once deleted all partnerships, put ur XDA on cradle which is already connected to PC
3. PC will ask for a new partnership, tell it what do u want to sync and from where & which account e.g. Outlook
It will start syncing once it made the partnership.
GoodLuck

... So basically, what I said (see my original reply: " I've just ActiveSynced again, and bingo - all my contacts, files, calendar, AvantGo files have appeared with no problem") - I assumed you'd tried deleting your old ActiveSync partnerships from your PC via the ActiveSync software before attempting to resync again.
Have problem with contacts
I had use Nokia 9210i and use Outlook + plaxo (plaxo.com) to manager contacts.
I have around 10.000 contacts with full detail (numbers, email, website, extra information)
Now I change to XDA mini S and discovered that they can not do the same thing as N9210i.
Just about one forth of my contacts Syns from PC, the Programe Memory of XDA is full.
I am asking many person, searching site to site but no one have same problem.
Everyone, who have experien, please advice me:
1. Can I store the contacts file in SD card but not on the fone (Programe Memory)
2. if 1 not avaiable, Can I expand Program Memory more than 64M?
Thank you so much for help me.
Hi longpt,
I think in your situation u should better give a try to contact Microsoft.

by the way r u using Wallaby (XDA 1) ?
Up until recently, I've been successfully using "Microsoft Active Sync 4.5", to sync my 8925 Tilt's data to my PC (running Windows XP w/service pack2). Now Active Sync keeps crashing at/near the very end of the syncing process. I removed Active Sync from my PC via add/remove programs, and also moved the previously synced folder (Tilt files) from my PC desktop onto another HD, and then reinstalled Active Sync from scratch. Unfortunately Active Sync continues to crash even after reinstall, including removing the Tilt to PC link partnership and reassigning a new one. The crash error message window reads: "ActiveSync Application has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience."
Here is the list of items I've got selected for syncing:
contacts
calendar
tasks
notes
files
WorldmatePro
Autofile
Movie Guide
Spb Wallet
The syncing process appeared to hang when it attempts to complete syncing the 'files' and/or 'notes' section, so I subsequently removed both 'files' & 'notes' from the sync item list, but unfortunately, Active Sync continues to crash right after having successfully(?) syncing all items, as interestingly enough, a synced check mark appears next to all items before the program actually crashes.
Is Microsoft Active Sync the only program that can sync the phone's: contacts, calendar, tasks, notes, and backup/sync files to your PC? I also own Sprite backup (full version) but I don't believe its a syncing program like Active Sync is.
Anybody here experienced problems with ActiveSync 4.5?
I have lots of apps installed & have made a lot of tweaks on my Tilt, so short of performing a hard reset on my phone, are there any suggestions on how I can get Active Sync working (w/o crashing) again?
Thanks in advance for all help and input.

Try unchecking the "Enable advanced network functionality" box under the connections tab > USB to PC.
Make sure there are not any older versions of Microsoft office on your machine.
ActiveSync doesnt know where to look for the sync items if you havent COMPLETELY removed everything.
I had a similar problem, had an update from office 2000xp to 2007 and it wouldnt sync.

Many ppl have multiple versions of Office installed as a result of trial versions that were installed at the factory the never got removed, and other factors. Remove all versions of Office and all components. Then install only the version you intend to use in perpetuity.
I installed Activesync 4.5 and MS Outlook 2007 (both came in CD with phone). (I have Windows XP in comp.)
But, when I connect the phone it fails to sync and shows the error :
ActiveSync encountered a problem on the desktop.
Support Code:85010014
The Windows Mobile website is of no use. It asks us to download the ActiveSync 4.5 version, while I already have that.
I uninstalled both AvtiveSync and Outlook then reinstalled. The Problem still persists.
Try to reflash your Rom/Hard reset your phone
But, I never did flashing.
I don't have the backup of the contacts, so that I can hard reset.
Use PIMBackup to make a backup of your calendar, contacts, messages..etc..
There are various programs you can use to back up your phone ... HTC Backup, SPB Backup, SpriteBackup...etc.. PIMBackup is free.
I backed it up using PIMBackup. Not yet tried hard reset.
Mean time, my friend connected his P4350 to my computer (we bought the phones together). His phone got synchronized smoothly. No error.!!!!
How is this possible? Both have same stock rom. Similar applications installed.
I'll hardreset the phone later today.
Finally I hardereset the device. Now it does sync with computer easily.
The problem is, it is updating the contacts with my friends phone contacts (which I did synchronise previously with my computer). Not a big issue. Have to find the file where it is saving the synchronised contacts.
Recently I've used the recovery dvd to reset my PC. I also have to install Active Sync. Strangely enough I couldn't install the disk that HTC puts into the boxes where you buy your phones in. The program says that you must install flash 8.0 or higher with a link that link you up to Adobe's website. I already did install the latest flash player. I uninstall it, reset the computer, put in the disk, hit the link, install the flash player again, restart again. Still the same message. After that I downloaded ActiveSync 4.5 at the website of Microsoft. It works okay.
When I put a new contact in the phone it won't set the contact into Word Office Outlook 2003. Otherwise it works.
I've tried to delete the device into ActiveSync and loaded up in it again but that won't work unfortunately. Please help!
Is everything else you selected to sync sychronising properly? It's not just simply that you didn't select the options when you re-installed?
Does ActiveSync come up with any error messages? It could be that you need to delete partnerships and re-establish them - in my experience ActiveSync is a bit 'fussy' when uninstalled and re-installed.
Whatever, make sure you do full backup(s) before trying anything - I lost all my data one time when an engineer 'tried' to re-establish my ActiveSync partnership!
My pc was completly turned up side down so I used the recovery dvd and that deleted the whole C disk, also ActiveSync. I do had to download ActiveSync from the website because the disk wouldn't run. And yes I do change some options.
It can not synchronised some contacts that I install on my Topaz. Installing contacts in Outlook 2003 to the device works, otherwise not.
It gives the warning code 1.
Sorry, not sure what to suggest here.
If NOTHING from the phone is syncing with Outlook (i.e. no Appointments, Tasks or whatever) it sounds to me as though it could be a problem with the firewall - if you have one set up. Try disabling that and syncing.
If it's only Contacts that aren't syncing, but it works the other way, I'm at a loss.
Worth looking at the Microsoft Support pages - but ActiveSync often seems to have a mind of its own!
Sorry I can't help.

It does Sync tasks, appointments, etc. Just a couple of contacts strangely enough :S
...and it won't sync NEW Contacts at all? I've had the problem previously where existing Contacts didn't get changed - ActiveSync seemed to have got 'confused' as to which was the most up-to-date version and I had to go through entire Contacts list making small changes, waiting for them to be replicated, and if they were not then deleting that Contact on both devices and adding them back in.
That's simpler than it reads - but if you can't add NEW Contacts from the phone I'm not sure that's the problem.
Sorry.
Thnx for your input
ive tried to synce my gmail contacts all goes well with the setup then it wont even sync i keep hitting the synce button and NOTTA. so i said fuc* it and did it all manually. must be a microsoft thing.
Been using the Galaxy S as a second multi-media device while waiting for the official 2.2 to be released by O2 UK (don't want to risk any unofficial firmware update due to the 3 button combo, not being available on this device).
The Galaxy can see contacts on the Sim card, but I want to sync it with my contacts in Outlook 2007. When I connect the phone to Kies (latest version), Kies shows my contacts and when I ask it to sync with outlook, the progress bar appears and successfully completes, but when I disconnect the phone, the outlook contacts have not been transfered to the phone.
I don't want to use Google contacts but simply transfer contacts (name, address, email) to the Galaxy S from Outlook 2007.
What should I do ?
Maybe its not displayed because its not set up to? goto contacts and click on options/more/display options and play around with it. I think you want to look at PHONE setting but I don't know as I don't use kies and everything for me is set to GMAIL/GOOGLE only as i've had bad experiences with leaving numbers in phones and sim cards (if you loose the phone you loose both)
Beautiful...That done it (display options). Thanks
