This is a very sad thing!
I have my Tilt (thankfully got the defective one replaced!) and I set it up to sync with my exchange 2007 server which should be push e-mail. In fact I know it is....
On the AT&T stock rom, it stays connected 24/7, never goes offline which is what it's supposed to do.
I get home, flash on the HTC ROM. Set up the partnership with my server, and I look, an hour later it's offline, showing last synchronized 45 minutes ago. I hit sync, it syncs, stays online for maybe ten minutes, then the same thing.
I've tried every cooked ROM too, same deal.
When I do manually sync, it doesnt try to connect to the network, it's already connected. I was wondering if the network settings may need to be tweaked...?
I've already tried adding an exclusive in task manager for activesync.
I'm using a Tilt and on AT&T.
I'm really going to be upset if Im locked to the AT&T rom just because the other ROMS dont handle active sync properly...and I can't beleive that the stock HTC rom has a problem like this...so I'm wondering if the network wizard may not be entering all of the proper settings...
Oh, and as a side note, this is my second Tilt, the first was defective, it it exhibited the exact same behavior. AT&T ROM stays connected properly, non-stock ROM disconnects....
Any advise? I dont want to be stuck with AT&T!
I'm wondering if it's you. it works fine for thousands of other people, and for you, 2 phones it's been "broke"
I had my phone disconnectng from active sync. It didnt bother me in the least because I'm not updating my phone but maybe once a day, i really dont care if it disconnects every 15 minutes. After I found out it was my USB hub, it's worked perfectly ever since. And I never once blamed the phone.
Hey now...no need for any snippy tones there...
I was asking for help here, not looking to be blamed as the source....
Exchange 2007 is supposed to remain totally connected 24/7....and it isnt. And Ive been able to recreate the problem on two separate devices....
So just looking to see if anyone else had had the same.....

You must admit - this statement boggles the mind. You expect AT&T to replace a device because it only works right on their network with the software they shipped on it? Umm, that's their whole EXCUSE for shipping custom ROMs and you're busily proving them right....
It's obviously too late to ask you not to return a hacked device as "defective" and f$ck it all up for the rest of us, but please don't do it again!!!!!!!!!!!!
Your actual question would probably better be phrased as "Anyone on AT&T managing to keep ActiveSync continuously connected to Exchange 2007 with non-AT&T ROM?"
Not at all...I actually had a boat of other problems with my first Tilt..I did not in any way return it because of this problem...
Im not daft...I would never go back to AT&T and ask them to replace something because I monkeyed with it and broke it...
My scroll wheel stopped working along with my GPS....which is why I returned it...after restoring the AT&T ROM back onto it.
So...I will just drop this since it seems as if nobody actually can listen to my problem and offer up solutions,but would rather take potshots at their impressions of my behavior.

No offense, but if you write more clearly you will be misunderstood less.
the first was defective, it it exhibited the exact same behavior doesn't read many other ways than "I returned the last one for this problem".
i gave you a suggestion to start looking at. AT&T and us posters arent out to get you. trust me.
this may sound kind of obvious, but did you check your sync schedule in ActiveSync? Make sure it is set to as items arrive.
I have my activesync working fine with Exchange 2003 on AT&T's network.
Only other thing I can think is if you have KaiserTweak set to disconnnect GPRS automatically after X amount of time.
I have the same problem with mt Tilt. If I use the ATT ROM it works fine but if I move to one of the HTC ROMS I get that problem with Activesync disconnecting from the Exchange server.
I had the same issue on my 8500 with some of the cooked ROMs. On that device the ATT ROM and vp3G's ROMS worked fine (except for one of his; the hybrid I think).
For now I'm just sticking to the ATT ROM and pray vp3G gets a Tilt so he can start making ROMs for our device.
If you don't want all the ATT bloat installed then hard reset and then just hit the soft reset button when it pops up saying it going to customize the device in 3 seconds.
me + kaiser + htc rom + exchange 2007 + at&t network = working just fine

Psy....
THANK YOU!
At least Im not nutso...
I am using the clear AT&T ROM which actually runs very well...its just the customizer in me that needs to make things better even if they arent broken!
Everybody else...sorry if we got off on the wrong foot with this thread...
Start fresh?
I wanted to throw an update out there....
My desire to figure this out got the best of me, so Ive been pretty much just flashing and experimenting for the last few days, and I think I may have actually figured this out....
It looks like it IS something to do with the network wizard. I pulled out a cingular settings cab from my hermes days. Flashed on the HTC rom, cancelled the network wizard, install it, and my AS has been connected for hours and hours. Did the same with one of the new cooked ROMs, same thing. So it looks like something just isnt quite right with the network wizard when it puts in the AT&T settings....

Nice work! What I've done to track this kind of thing is to use DotFred's TaskManager and export the *entire* registry before and after, then use a "diff" type utility to compare the two. Some obvious timestamps, etc, always change but it's usually pretty apparent where the change(s) were.
Might be interesting to do that between your working config and the wizard's config and see if there's just one or two settings different....

I wonder what all there is in the cab file? I haven't tested it on my Tilt but on the 8525 if I canceled the customization and inputed the network settings myself it didn't stay connected.
Where do I get a copy of this cab file so I can look at it?
I'm attaching the cab for the settings....been working like a champ for over a day now, so Im going to call this issue resolved in my book....
rsoloman,
Sounds like a plan...there definitely has to be something different between the AT&T settings both in the cab and included in the AT&T ROM versus what comes with the network wizard......
Sounds like a scooby doo mystery to me!

Well, personally I'm happy on the AT&T ROM, so it will take someone else running the .reg file extractions. I'll be happy to help analyze the two, but right now it won't be me extracting them
Richard
For the record I'm using a tilt flashed to HTC ROM on at&t without any AS problems running Exchange Push.
I always manually input the at&t settings though.
Mine actually worked fine both the stock AT&T rom and the HTC rom. I just started having this problem with duty's touchflo tilt rom. The cab posted here did not make any change for me. Any other suggestions?
ActiveSync BOOSTER
Is there a way to boost up speed of Sync
Is there a any software or Cab file for it ?
Also want to know after we sync Phone
It keeps repeating to sync, is there a way to stop it ?
With removing the phone
Please Help

For some odd reason a few days ago, my ATT Tilt decided it wouldn't operate correctly. The W key verifiably is causing the phone to freeze up requiring the battery to be removed to get the phone to operate again. Once the W key has been pushed, I can get the start menu to open but it takes forever. Nothing else will open within at least 2 minutes time. After waiting 2 minutes I pulled the battery.
The weird thing is that this situation ONLY occurs when I'm typing a text message or email message via the built in messages system. I can use the W key just fine in Internet Explorer.
I haven't done anything to change the phone up recently EXCLUDING a feature change from DataConnect to PDA PERSONAL. But that change is only on the network side, not phone software side.
Unfortunately I cannot call the support hotline at ATT because I'm training at Keesler AFB in preparations for a new deployment and only have my cellphone as a means of phone communications.
Any thoughts on how to rectify the situation would be highly appreciated by this US Serviceman. Thanks!

I'm assuming you're still running the stock AT&T rom, and as such the simplest thing for you to do would be to back up your information, and then hard reset the phone by holding in the two soft keys while resetting the phone using the stylus. This will take your phone back to it's original configuration. Then you can restore your backup information.
I'll try that. Hopefully I can get a backup done over the weekend and do a hard reset. Can't really do it during duty days as I work 14 hours a day in preparation for fun land overseas.
In the mean time, would it be safe to flash the ATT TILT with HTC's latest hardware ROM for the Kaiser? I'd love to have a try with Windows Mobile 6.1 amongst some other reasons such as better RADIO software built-in. If it's safe, know where to get it? I read that I couldn't download it since I have an ATT TILT and am not registered with HTC.
If that isn't possible, any recommendations on a WinMobile 6.1 ROM that's out there with a great RADIO setup, easy to use and acceptable for ATT Tilts?
Thanks!

Rumor has it that the AT&T WM6.1 Rom will be released on the 26th of August. You will need to HardSPL your device before flashing a non-AT&T rom. There are guides to flashing in the kaiser wiki which will step you through anything you need to know about flashing before you do it. If you have trouble finding it, just search "kaiser wiki" and that'll bring it up.
Please help me out with this, I'm getting very annoyed, upset and whatever else you can think of. Two days ago, I brought my Tilt into the ATT service center because of a problem, and they replaced it with a brand new Tilt. My older one was running 6.0 but this new one is running 6.1 WinMo, which I fear is the culprit here.
I get full HSPA bars here in NYC (kaiser tweak) under most circumstances, and it stays this way while I'm surfing the net and such but, whenever I make a phone call, it automatically switches to G ! ? There are times when it might go through with EDGE *the call*, but it's seldom. I never had this problem before the phone switch. It also happens without using Kaiser Tweak, with 3G. And while I AM able to use the phone with G, I feel that this might pose a problem at some point, and would like the phone to be able to reach its full potential or.. just be the way it was.
Help is seriously needed !

i think theyre still using EDGE / 2G for voice calls.. not all markets have switched to 3G/HSDPA voice
I too have the same issue. I'm not saying a problem, cause in my opinion it is not. When a call is made it switches back to gprs. It takes about 30 secs after the call to switch it back to hsdpa. It is probably a bug or perhaps a lack of your carrier.
BTW. I'm with T-mobile Holland, perhaps it is network related.
What I'm trying to convey though is that my other phone (which was exchanged because I thought the top of the slider was loose) did not behave like this. It kept its full H bars through every call. And the only difference between the two phones is that the previous one ran WinMo 6.0 and this one runs 6.1
They DO use HSPA here in NYC, you have to turn it on with Kaiser tweak in order to use it, though.
Doug
u nailed it 2 times on the head here..
kaiser tweak..and ur stock winmo 6.1
- kaiser tweak is an essential tool for a kaiser..never leave it behind after a flash and always enable ur HSDPA
- winmo 6.1 is a dirty dirty devil, what i suggest is to reflash and use a good radio..i live in Central New Jersey and im in and out of NY daily ( midtown / diamond district ) and i have yet to experience a dropped call!
im running the below mentioned rom and radio..give it a go..most likely u wont be disappointed!

Well, it's interesting. Paulbates over at hofo suggests (and I agree w/him) that it would have been silly for them to release a ROM which did this, and we'd see tons of threads here and elsewhere about it if it were the case. I only asserted though, that the radio version might not like the area in which I live yada yada..
As soon as the problem started however, I did install Kaiser Tweak, and enabled HSDA. It worked as usual, but the H disappears just as fast as 3G was disappearing, so it makes no difference. I'm also experiencing data connectivity issues on this phone for the first time ever. Last night, even with full E or H bars, as I tried to open Opera or PIE, I'd get an error saying I had no data session open and the web page wasn't available. I tried many different pages of course, so it was the phone.. This never happened with my other phone, and I'm really regretting having taken it back now.
P.S. as far as changing the ROM and radio, I'm very inexperienced (re: have never done it before) and will wait to see if changing the phone makes a difference first. I only wish they had given me an exchange phone with 6.0 on it. Even the guy at the shop said that a lot of people have been complaining about 6.1. Do you live in NYC btw ? If so, perhaps I will take your advice about changing the ROM/Radio myself. Only thing is though, I run Linux. I do also have a Macbook Pro.. Can I do it with either of those OS's ?
Doug
Oh this is so very annoying... I just brought the phone into the store and they replaced it again. The girl I dealt with was very nice, and went through testing it out, and agreed that it was indeed doing something it shouldn't be doing. She even swapped the SIM card, but it was still the same. I then got a new (refurb of course) and it seemed to stay on E in the store, but then I wandered outside into Bryant Park (where I am now) and the same ol' junk occurred.
The last call I made actually stayed on Edge, but that was about 1 of 7 calls. Not only that, but now my voice mail doesn't work either... It asks if I have an account, then prompts me to put in my phone number. When I do, it says it's not a valid account. I'm really regretting switching my phone over, big time.
I'm going to call CS and see what they have to say (yes, we know the network isn't solid right now, but we're "working on it") Yah...
This really puts me off, but if they can't do anything, I'll start messing with the ROMS. It's just that my download speed right now sucks, too. Can someone direct me to a mobile internet speed test, which is good ? I tried toast.net, but it's too slow to load anything on any of the servers. And speedtest.net requires flash, but those probably aren't very good for mobile phones, anyway.

Hi Everyone...
I have had mt HTC 8925 (AT&T Tilt Branded) for well over a year... I use this phone daily and love it... I have never flashed a new rom to it since I flashed the most updated at the time AT&T stock rom that was out the day I got it... It is still running on WM 6.0 and is great for the most part... Only real modification was I did the reset trick to advoid the bloatware... After trying MANY programs, some I liked & kept... others I removed... I have finally run into a snag where I am willing to flash and start over to fix the issue (my tomtom traffic won't update anymore, and after much trouble shooting, TomTom and myself think I need to "Reset the Tilt to factory settings" or flash it to a new rom... I was hoping to get some advice from you guys to which rom should suite me best... Here are some details..
The phone is unlocked, and I use Einstein Wireless for service... so I do not need AT&T or Tmobile settings on there, and I prefer no hidden proxies or anything... I will manually enter my carriers internet and mms settings..
I use a lot of WiFi as my providors internet service is slower than I would like
I use it as a GPS (with TomTom) almost daily...
I installed the HTC Home Plugin and love it with the weather updates.. would like to have that incorperated with whatever rom
The radio version on stock rom works great for me.. so something when paired to do simmilar settings on that ?
I use the S2P, S2V2, and S2V .... So I can install those or if any rom has them in it...
I have a good sized micro SD (8gb at the moment) so I tend to install jsut about everything onto the SD card.. maybe a rom where that is the defautl location or something ?
I use MS Voice Command daily...
I play games on it regularly.. love works, ka-blom, pac man, emulators, and others...
I use wireless BT2.0 stereo headphones for MP3's and such
I stream music and video from my home computer using orb
I have used IE Mobile, Skyfire, and other browsers.. I jsut want one that works well...
I love an iContact (or type) contact program
As you probalyl guessed, I like it to be as finger friendly in general as possible...
I have used a few programs so I can use the phone as a webcam when connected via USB to my computer, woudl be great if it has that built in as well
MMS/SMS managing software would be great.. I usually keep recent txt's for a while after receiving them... something that say only keep them til you have a certain amount or after a certian amount of time passes would be great....
Of course, I would also like the rom to be very stable as well if that isn;t too much to ask..
I am open to trying to some programs/features that I have not used before... and I don't expect any rom to do everything I have listed above... The main thing will be to get one that I can set up the internet easy enough without having to worry about hidden settigns for AT&T or other such carrier... If you have been using a rom that you really liked that you think would work for me, let me know... Thank you in advance for reading this and sending me you suggestions....

So let me get this right.... You have a standard Tilt, minus the bloatware which you're happy with (and have been) until TomTom stopped working with traffic updates. You're now considering changing the ROM to fix the problem Why not just hard reset after backing up your stuff and do the bloatware free reset trick again? Oh and mods don't like 'ROM Recommendation' type threads (read some of the sticky posts to see why) so if people post saying ROM x is better than y, this thread will probably be locked to stop any arguments breaking out. Also TomTom will be less likely to offer support with cooked ROMs - I was told they wouldn't even support a HTC Default WM 6.1 ROM, only the WM 6.0 ROM the device (and TomTom) came with (one of the reasons why I had my device reverted to WM 6.0). Good luck with your hard reset
+1 on the real issue being Tom Tom traffic, as you seem pretty happy with use and your exisiting configuration. I'd try to find a WiFi hotspot (where Tom Tom can also see satellites) and see if Traffic will update via WiFi. Could be Einstein is blocking Tom Tom traffic over GPRS.
still new to the kaiser/tilt/tytn II, etc(less than a week) so not in a position to really give any real advice, but what helped me in my decision is reading through PureSkillz reviews of the roms and seaching with google outside of xda to see what people are using and that helped me with my decision, T-mobile sux in about every way, so if it is good on T-mobile it'll probably be good on anything else. What I had a hard time on is choosing the right radio for my device but luckily the rom i chose allowed me to use whatever radio i wanted and I am happy with my setup and don't plan to change unless something radical happens in the scene. I am running Tomtom 7 on my rom and it works perfect, but i dont have internet via my provider cause they charge way too much so i use wifi. the one thing i don't like about this rom is lack of landscape support but hey, cant complain if i'm not smart enough to cook my own stuff.
see my choice in my sig below. Aloha
Thanks... It isnl;t an einstein blocking issue.. I already tried the WiFi... The problem started right after I installed igo GPS program to compair the 2... I have since uninstalled igo, but tomtom still wont; connect to traffic.. I talked ot them at tomtom.. they were very frienmdly with troubleshooting.. went htough a million steps.. even gave me an additional free year of traffic as well for the problem, even though it isn;t their fault...
Thank you... I read that... and thought I woudl advoid those "argument" because I wasn;t trying to ask "What is the best rom"... I was trying to ask what rom would work the easiest for me in my unique situation ? That is why I listed how I use to and what software I use... But thanks for the input... I considered just doing the hard reset.... I just thought if now I am wiping my phone and starting over, which rom would give me added advantages...
And on the TomTom not working with 6.1..... My son bought a phone like mine after he saw me using it so much.. when he got his (After me) we grabbed the newest offical rom form HTC's site (he actually uses AT&T prepay, so the AT&T software is ok for him).. It was WM 6.1 and his TomTom software works fine.... So don;t let that stop you from using 6.1
I have downloaded the Athine OS WM 6.5 Final as well as the Hyper Dragan III from Christmas day, 08 as many people reccomened... I have to decide between them now... You have any experiance with either?

Ive had my tytn 2 for a little over a month now, and I've noticed something when I'm using the phone for heavy texting. After a while, the phone will more or less freeze. The chime stops sounding for a new text, however, the phone continues to operate, and will recieve calls. Also, when the alert stops sounding, if I close the text messaging and return to the today screen, the screen is all scrambled. I have done a few hard resets now to try and clear the problem. I am going to be unable to return the phone to the place I bought it from, as we had a disagreement over the last phone I purchased through them(long story). The touch screen still works on the today screen, and if you know where to push, it will still open programs, just everything looks like snow....
Now, I have WM 6.1 on it(factory rom) ROM version 3.29.422.1 WWE, the ROM date is 05/20/08. The radio version is 1.70.18.02. The phone is used on a T-mobile affiliate(IWireless) network. The techs there are idiots, and I don't think they could dial with this let alone tell me how to fix it....
My previous phone was a T-mobile MDA, which I did love. I know about using different ROMS, Im just not sure how/which one to use on my TYTN 2. HELP ME PLEASE!
anybody have this problem too? it is getting incredibly irritating. I called tech support last night, and the people that I talked to had no idea what I was even talking about. It almost seems as if there is a lag in the programs. I occasionaly get a screen that is telling me that tmail.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close. i let it send the error report, but the text program stays open.
Any help would be appreciated!
have you tried to reflash to the factory rom?
Can you warranty it with HTC?
Sounds like a harware problem -- specifically the cable that connects the keyboard is either loosly connected or damaged.
Try to get service directly through HTC -- but if you can't you might want to open it up and see if the cable is seated properly
im not sure it it is a hardware problem, as the phone will go skitzo on me even if I open the keyboard and leave it open. it usually would only do it when im texting, but it did it today, when the phone was on silent, I switched it back to on, and read a text message(did not open it), and when I tried to close the text and return to the today screen, it froze up again, and I had to do a soft reset. im really thinking its a software issue...
I would try to reflash, I had a ROM on mine that had the same problem, I did a reflash and never had the problem again.
Is there any way that I can do the reflash and still have the pre-loaded settings from my carrier? I'm thinking that I can't, but is there a place that I can be pointed to to get a copy of how to do the re-flash? It's got WM 6.1 Professional on it, and it is a branded copy(maybe part of the problem?). Obviously, I need to take some time to write down all of the settings for internet and such...
Are you talking about the network settings or something else? Most ROM's have a connection wizard that will setup network and MMS settings.
mostly the settings for the mms messages, and the internet settings. when I flashed a new rom to my mda, I had to manually put them in, the auto wizards wouldn't work.
Hi there,
Sorry if this a retarded question, I can't find anyone else that's asked.
Basically my unbranded Touch Pro 2 has in the data connection settings the default selections of UK and then TMobile.
What i need to know is, on these cooked ROMs will that setting still be there? If not where do i get the settings to reenable my data.
I'm going to do the HardSPL and flash thing tonight for first time. I'm a little aprehensiveso just wanna make sure I don't install some flashy ROM but lose my 3G browsing.
Thanks to whoever can set my mind at rest.
I have an unbranded tp2 on tmobile uk from expansys, connection settings with custom roms bring up tmobile uk. It did when i was flashing Kaiser roms.
Having trouble at the mo with mms on the current rom I've flashed but gonna do a bit of searching tonight to sort that.
(need to update my sig from kaiser to tp2)
cool, good to know someone else with sam setup. mine is from mobilephonesdirect.
I don't send a lot of mms, but what is the known issue?
Also were there any complications for you or a smooth install and Hardspl flash?
cheers
I think maybe we should take this to pm to keep the forum uncluttered? check your inbox.
@dazkeirle
My unbranded TP2's on T-Mobile and from MobilePhonesDirect too!
OK I was all up for flashing last night (HardSPL) but lost my bottle when i came to something which was not mentioned.
When i first started tot run the program, with my phone in an activsync connection everything was normal.
Then when i click Automatic flash, then ok on the next screen (before the screen with the picture of the TP2 on it) my TP2 goes into a kind of dead mode, black screen no lights.
Now i think this is normal from what I've read, but the weird thing is my computer indicates here that the USB is dropped and activsync disconnects, however some other drivers are then installed and the phone is sort of still connected (although that isnt indicated anywhere).
I was nervous as activsync was not there so hit cancel, did a soft reset on phone and all was still normal (preflashed state).
Please can somebody confirm that activsync only is there at the start and that the activsync will disconnect after you hit ok, it's not explicitly defined in the tutorial and I'm nervous of bricking handset.
Thanks
