Everyone in a while i check to see what programs are running and Active Sync is always on! I close it and later on it comes back on. Is there something that can be done to close it and only use it when i connect to pc?? I have the ATT Tilt 8900 incase that matters.
Same here on a TyTn II. I sync with exchange and have peak times set. So in the evening or on sunday the AS still starts when I power up the phone. And also when I close it it starts again...
Goto Start>Settings>Phone then to the "Time Zones" tab and un-check "automatic time zone change and clock".
Active sync will quit it's crazy auto launching madness, plus you won't get the "hey, my clock just jumped ahead for no reason" bug that many have seen.
This also will help:
Do the ActiveSync workaround now and you won't be sorry later. Thank you to the original poster in HowardForums for this workaround -- I did it on my older HTC TyTN and now on my Cingular 8525 as well as Tilt and found it to resolve the weirdness all around:
1. Turn on your 8525/8925
2. Go to Start > Programs > Activesync. This will open the Activesync program.
3. Tap Menu at the bottom right hand corner of the screen. This will bring up the Options Menu. Notice the option Schedule... is greyed out? This is the all-critical option we need to get access to. But as it's disabled we can't change Activesync's default synchronisation schedule.
Ok, so how do we enable the Schedule option? Easy!!! Fool Activesync into thinking there is an Exchange Server to sync with:
1. From Activesync's Menu tap on Add Server Source.
2. In the following screens you can enter any old garbage. It does not matter, but just in case your unsure, just type the following in the indicated boxes:
Server Address: fake
Tap Next
User name: fake
Password: fake
Domain: fake
(Ticking save password or going into the Advanced menu makes no difference, so no need to bother).
Tap Next
Untick all of the 'Data you want to synchronise' options
Tap Finish
3. Ok, we're done creating the server. You should now see in Activesync's main screen your normal Activesync connection(s), and a new connection called Exchange Server.
4. Go back into the Menu, and lo and behold the Schedule option is now enabled! Go ahead and tap it!
5. You will see that both options in the Schedule screen are set to Every 5 Minutes (A01 Rom), or Every 10 Minutes (A06 Rom). This simply will not do! ( * Advanced users - please see my note below * )
6. Using the drop downs, change both the Peak times and Off-peak times boxes to Manually.
7. Press the OK button at the top right of the screen.
Congratulations! Activesync is now gagged from opening on it's own and ruining your life! Your work is not done just yet though - time to clean up and get rid of the now unwanted fake Exchange Server.
1. Go back into Activesync's Menu, then Tap Options.
2. Highlight Exchange Server, then tap Delete. A warning message will appear about removing files etc, but as you have no files associated with the fake Exchange Server, it's nothing to worry about - just tap Ok.
3. The list will now only show your remaining PC Sync connection(s). Obviously do not delete these!
After you sync your 8525/8925 with a PC and have removed it from the dock, you must manually close ActiveSync on your pda or it will remain running and defeat the purpose of the fake exchange server hack (n.b. if you are not using a 3rd party program that will close apps permanently e.g. Magic Button or Wisbar, you will need to go to Start > Settings > System > Memory > Running Programs and Stop it manually). This could be why some people have had no luck with the hack.
I had applied the "fake" server trick but it had no effect on the Kaiser's active sync madness (although I also reccomend that it be done on all phones not using servers), the time zone fix nailed it.
Timezones trick does not work by me. I also have no problem with the clock jumping...
The Exchange trick, well I am using an Exchange server to sync with, so my peak times is set ot as items arrive, and non peak hours to manual... peak times are set only ot weekdays between 08:45 and 19:00 so I am afraid I have to live with the bug. Well it is not that bad since there is a load **** of memory on the kaiser.
How to Ungrey Schedule Permanently
If you want to be able to have the Schedule item ungreyed permanently, and therefore available for use, follow the procedure described by Pruben above, but don't delete the fake server. Now click on Schedule, select the Options tab and deselect all boxes in the Microsoft Exchange section. Press OK and you're done.
I haven't been able to test this out fully because Pruben's solution doesn't work for me, so maybe someone can test this and post results.

I am using an S730 since December 21st and after playing around I still have some issues unresolved, see if anyone has ideas.
1- How do I download multiple email account at the same time (manually) instead of having to open each account every time want to do this.
2- Bluetooth acts crazy sometimes, it take over my car stereo (Mercedes E-Class) by making the radio believe that it is making a call and mutes music, screen looks as if you were making a call but no call is made.
3- MEMORY, no matter what I do, SKTools or anything, memory does not let me use the camera. Only used it once, all other times it asks me to close programs even when none are open.
4- How do I input DNS, I have Wi-Fi conections that need me to input a DNS in order to pass through internet.
5- Windows Update never works.
Please coment and thanks for taking the time to read this.

3. There may be opened some unwanted processes on the background - close them using advanced task manager (which can handle processes - Celetask for example). Than just close processes like tmail, iexplore, rsshub...
4. Comm Manager -> WLAN Settings -> Connection Status -> IP Address -> Use specific IP address -> ... DNS
5. There are no available updates on Windows Update.
1) what do you mean? You want pocket outlook to not sync email for the mailboxes automatically, but want them to sync manually; but not do this from within pocket outlook? it can't be done without a program, and i've never seen one.
2) looking on the htc e-club, which has updates for the phones, a few other phones had strange bluetooth issues, and were issued updates. i'd say that htc is on the case, but give them a call anyway.
1. jdr1000 doesnt mean syncing mails with Outlook. When you set several email accounts in the messaging application you have to hit Send/Recieve and wait untit this operation is finished and then you can sync your next account. There is no Sync all option (as far I know). (At least there is Automatic Send/Recieve feature)
Thank you all for taking your time to help.
1- moneytoo is "on the money" that is what I want to do, it's like running 5 or 6 or X ammount of connections at the same time. It is one internet connectio after all.
2- I installed the fix for the vox and it happens 10% of the time.
3- Ok, I will look fo this.
4- How can I do this for a specific wi-fi connection and not for all of them, since this only happens when I am at work, all the other time it is ok if everything comes from the APs.
5- Ok. Thks

Alright, I just got my tilt, so if these are newbie questions sorry, I tried lookin around couldnt quite find the solutions to my problems... so here we go
#1 I got the HTC homescreen installed, and like it, but the icon for mail takes me to email sample, not my exchange account, how do i change that?
#2 I used to have a 8125, and I remember it had a program called terminal i believe that allowed me to do a remote desktop connection to a computer... Is this software available for the tilt?
#3 I had a T-Mobile dash for while, running the HTC s620 rom, in it, it had internet sharing i think it was called, where i could just hook my phone to my laptop and i could use its gprs connection for internet... Is the tilt able to do this?
Well gosh, higherbeing..... did you even search for these answers or did you at least bring a spoon so someone can feed you?
i tried... it gave me no results no matter what i entered
Let me take #2 for you...... I just drumed up a bunch of hits.

See if that is a starting place for you
thanks grizzley, with that link i was actually able to answer #3 and many more questions i had stored up yet i cant find a solution yet to #1
OK, I think I've got #1 after playing around abit. Not sure if this is the correct way of doing it, but it works!
Press the Mail Icon
Go to Menu > Tools > Options
If you want it to automatically open on your exchange account, ensure "Display Account Picker when opening Messaging" is TICKED. Ticking it will enable the phone to ask you which account you want to go into when you press the Mail Button.
Press OK to close, and close all running apps to get back to today screen
Now press the Mail Button again
Select your Exchange from the list of accounts
Then press the X (close) to exit the account
Press your mail button again
It should have automatically highlighted your Exchange account (i.e. it should be green).
Select Menu > Options
UNTICK "Display Account Picker when opening Messaging".
Press OK
That's it. It should now automatically open your exchange when you press the mail button.
Hi
My Tilt automatically deletes emails on its own. After hitting send and receive it gets the new emails and then the old one get removed and the are not in the deleted items folder. Please help.
It does not delete the emails but does not show them anymore, they're still available. Don't know if this is a setting or default.
I am new here sorry. So where do the emails go. I called ATT and spoke to HTC as well they said device was defective. This is my second device this week and it still does the same. ATT, HTC says they never heard anything like that before.
It's not defective. It's a setting. If you use mail from an external ISP you do the setup of your account. In outlook on PC (I presume you use that) there is a setting to keep a copy on the server. If that is not flagged, you send and receive mail on your device, but as soon as you do send and receive on your desktop it clears the files from the server and puts them on your PC. If you then again do a send and receive the mails are gone from the server and automatically removed from your device.
EDIT: Why not using exchange instead. Then you don't have this issue at all.
Yeah, it has to do with over how many days you want to download emails to your device. The default is typically 3 days, at least on mine, so if an email is older than 3 days it will be removed from the phone. It will still be on the main server though, unless you manually delete it from the phone in which case the aforementioned setting to keep a copy on the server is selected. So, in other words, if you are downloading Gmail, for example, if you log in to the Gmail website your email will be there, just not on your phone if it's older than 3 days. Obviously, changing that cutoff date will add or remove more emails. BTW, you change that by opening Messaging, go to Menu > Options, and pick the account you would like to change. Then go thru the wizard, and when you get to the panel that says "Download Messages", change the setting in that panel.
Re
Did you checked your e-mails with your pc as well? Your PC downloads the from the server, your tytn show them only.
so if you connect after you've been busy on your desktop, their gone and can be found on your desktoppc
Thanks Everyone I think i understan what you guys are saying. I am used to a blablberry where that leaves it on th BB until i delete them. Thanks
Is there a setting where i can leave them on both computer and phone at the same time?
not really, just increase the download time in the email settings, but none will stay permanently. (Unless there's a keep all emails option, I don't remember ATM and the girlfriend has my phone). It's a memory saving function.
Enter the messaging screen, tap 'Menu' then 'Tools' then 'Options'. Next, tap on the 'Storage' tab at the bottom, you will then see a dropdown menu for 'Empty Deleted items'. Select 'Manually' and your problems will be solved.

It is not working on Kaiser. Is there any solution for keep emails on pocket outlook when they gone from inbox on sever?
The one solution what i know is move email to the other folder ('draft' or created one) beacuse mails are deleting automaticly only from inbox folder in pocket outlook when it can't be find exacly the same copy on server.

This is not SOLVED
Here si the fix on the HTC and disappearing emails
1 start/message/click email account/menu/tools/options/tap email account/edit account setup/next/next/next/next/next/download message 3 pls days/advance setting/keep them on server/next/ finish
Do this for all accounts
Now go to your computer and outlook tools/email accounts/view or change email account/next/change/ more settings/advanced/leave copy on server/ how many days is up to you
You must do this for all you accounts on that computer. then do the same to all the computer you use to get the same e-mails.
I am actually having the same issue as the person that started this thread. It only started 2day. Ive had my phone for over a year and it was with WM 6.0 and my gmail on the phone was working fine....if i pressed send recieve it got my emails....i left them in the inbox and when i pressed send recieve again 30 mins later for an example my old emails still stayed while the new ones came in. Now i upgraded my phone to WM 6.1 last night and now when i press send recieve to get my gmail the older emails automatically erase/disappear from my phone. Anyone understand why? And yes its still on my regular gmail account...it doesnt disappear from there!
I'm set up with a hosted exchange service with push email working nicely.
Some things don't work quite the way I want them to and they seem like things I should be able to change in some settings menu somewhere, but no such menu exists. How can I change them? Registry changes?
The main thing I want to change is the duration for which new emails stay on my phone. When I get a new email it sits in my inbox for some period of time then disappears. It seems like maybe a week or less, and I would like for emails to stay on my device for more like a month, or even indefinitely until I manually delete them.
I really needed an email today that disappeared yesterday.
Someone help! This has to be changeable...
Try this from your device .. I think this is what I had done:
Start > Programs > Activesync (could be in a different folder depending on what ROM your using) ..
Menu > Configure Server .. Next > Next .. You should now be on the screen that shows Contacts, Calendar, Email and Tasks .. Tap Email and hit the Settings Button on the bottom ..
Under Download the past: try a longer timeframe.

Also I think that even though the email does not show on your device you might still have access to it.
From your Pocket Outlook: Menu > Tools > Search Server .. From there you can use the search to get any email on the server even if its not actively on your device.
How about the Reply To?
Anyone know if the Reply To can be changed while using Exchange? It would be nice to have it look like my emails are coming from my Gmail address, instead of my private address I use with exchange. I was able to do that with Outlook and Pop.
Thank you! That solved my issue just fine.
I recently had to hard reset my phone (after fiddling with the new Manilla version posted elsewhere on the forum) and restored my settings from a backup.
Since then I've been finding annoying little differences in email behaviour:-
1. In the menu, the send/receive option is permanently greyed out.
2. When I select to download the rest of a message (I have it set to headers only) instead of downloading immediately I get a message saying it will download next time I send/receive.
I used to have push email set up and working fine with our exchange server, so now I'm baffled. I have to keep popping into Activesync and hitting "sync" all the time. The ActiveSync options all look absolutely fine, as do all the Outlook options.
Where should I be looking to change this behaviour?
Kind regards
Dave
Interesting, this problem went away completely after flashing the new HTC ROM update. You live and learn
