i used to have a Hermes but the screen got stepped on and so i upgraded my plan to the Kaiser, but i have a big problem. all my important numbers are on the Hermes. so i wanted to know if the LCD screens are compatible, can i just take the screen from my Kaiser and attach it to the motherboard of my Hermes long enough to put the numbers on my SIM? or should i just go pay some guy in hong kong on ebay the $60 for a new screen?
Thanks in advance
Can't you just sync the Hermes with the PC (no screen needed for that) and then sync the Kaiser?
u serious? just sync ur hermes with outlook and then sync ur kaiser...
outlook
i've tried that, outlook was never installed on my phone and for some reason it won't install now
You shouldn't need to install it on your phone, it comes with windows, it is the program that handles contacts and messages. what happens when you sync?
it asks what i want to sync and contacts is greyed out, it won't let me
U sure u have (office) outlook installd on ur PC ?
Had the same problem with sync with MS outlook, installd Office and problem gone....
Goodluck
i have office on my pc, and i'm trying to sync it with wmdc and my phone will not appear, i have the phone plugged in, and nothing
syncing should do it.. but if not, then no.. the kaiser and hermes have different screens.
Although, the WIZARD and HERMES take the same LCD, just not the KAISER.
use this http://www.mymobiler.com/
It will let you use the computer to see whats going on and u can use ur mosue to click on things.
Used it for the same reason u need it.
Good lcuk
I also had broken screen and used mymobiler to control the PDA from PCs screen mouse and keyboard.
If you are unable to install mymobiler through activesync, active sysnc at least lets you access the file system:
Copy a file called pim.vol to PC and then to new PDA,and there you have all your contacts,tasks, and appointments !

Hi, this might not belong in this forum but hopefully my question can be answered quickly.
I have all my contacts in Outlook 2003, and ActiveSync is set up to sync contacts, but when my Tilt and computer sync, the contacts from my outlook don't go onto my Tilt. Conversely, I made a contact on my Tilt and synced, and I could not find it in my Outlook.
How do I get the contacts from my Outlook 2003 onto my Tilt?

If you are having problems with Outlook sync, I would suggest this if no-one else comes up with an alternative.
Make sure you have the latest A-sync (4.5xxx) installed.
Back up your phone with SPB or something similar if you can.
Delete the Activesync association in 'Activesync' on your device and then go through the process of setting it up again when you connect to your PC/laptop.
Once this is done, select 'Replace all data on device...' which will give a CLEAN sync and will put all data from your PC/laptop back on your device.
I tried that, and it didn't seem to work. The phone sync's fine, but nothing goes onto the phone. Thanks for the suggestion, though.
OK, one last thought.. If you have tried this before, your PC may be holding the association name.
Before you connect the phone, Open Activesync on the PC, go to 'File' 'Delete Mobile device' and remove all references...
May work?
I tried both.
I flashed to the HTC rom from the Tilt rom. Looks like I'll be flashing back to Tilt to see if that's the problem.

Really wierd?? you cant sync at all??
It SAYS it's all synced, but the contacts are not on my phone.
edit: Looks like it wasn't the rom's fault. The Tilt rom also won't sync my contacts.
same problem with AS
same here
since i upgrade my xda iis to pdaviet wm6. i just select the contact to be synchronize. in AS its show syncronize 150 contact, when i put my device on the cradle.
but when its done. nothing seem to be copied
i try to add 1 contact manualy in my device and sync, it copied to outlook. so the opposite, when i add contact in my outlook, it copied to my device contact. but not the rest ...
i havent try with other rom nor other ver outlook
i use winXP SP2 with ms outlook 2007. my xda on pdaviet 5.80.02 WWE, ROM date 12/06/07
any sugest would be helpful
regards
I had the same problem with activesync saying it had copied over over contacts but nothing appeared (using outlook 2007 by the way).
So i plugged it into another laptop that had outlook 2007 installed and it synced no problem over activesync
So i guessed that there was some sort of courruption or error on my main desktop pc.
Fixed the whole problem by installing the latest office service pack.
Syncs perfectly now
sync problem with tilt
I had a problem sync'ing the tilt- xp/pro and office 07
I finally found out there were other versions of office on the machine, and apparently it didnt know where to point to outlook.
Uninstalled previous versions of office, cleaned the registry, and like magic, it worked fine.
Many hours spent finding this out. Had help from Mr. Bean.
I hope this helps.

If I do this will I lose all the contact on my phone? Sim?
also what file is this: Activesync association......which file do I delete?
Ok so I searched the forum and the wiki and could not find how to do this. So I have a BB Curve and I am going to transfer to a AT&T Tilt. Now I need my phonebook that is on the device to transfer to the Tilt, and I can not find anyway to do so. Also to add to the problem I will not have the BB after I get the Tilt because I trading the BB for the Tilt and the BB needs to be completely wiped when I go meet the guy to trade. Also my phonebook is not on the SIM and there is no option from me to transfer contacts to the SIM so please HELP!
Do you have windows vista or xp?

VERY EASY
Number 1 you need some version of outlook on your computer
You want to set the desktop manager to sync to outlook
After you verify the contacts are there
Then install microsoft activesync
Activesync will put the contacts in outlook on your tilt
AND VIOLA
Does activesync work with blackberries?
ALSO
If you dont have outlook
You can download Yahoo Go 2.0
To your blackberry
Once you open it
hit the menu button and you should have the option to sync address book
Let it go through its sync process and you should be able to see the count increasing as it goes
Once its finished
Put your sim card in your tilt
and download ppcygonet
And install yahoo go to your tilt
After its installed you gonna do the same thing
except it will see 0 contacts on your tilt and pull them from yahoo and put them on your tilt
The only downside is it will also sync all the email addresses you have in your addressbook on yahoo as well

No activesync only works for Windows Mobile devices
For the blackberry you need Blackberry Desktop Manager
Which is on the BB User Tools CD that came with your device
Or download it from www.blackberry.com
Thanks a lot that worked like a charm. Never thought of it since I don't use outlook often.

When you have tilt, outlook is going to be your best buddy.
Hi all,
Just recently i re-formatted my hard drive on my laptop and put vista back on it. Now i went to connect my Diamond to the laptop...it downloaded some updates etc and installed and also installed the windows mobile device center.
Anyways the phone synched but it didnt give me a chance to specify where and what i wanted synched etc. So anyways it seems like all my contacts that were on the phone have gone missing...which annoys me to no end as i had no back up. Usually i have my contacts backed up on my outlook email program.
Now it must have synched the contacts somewhere but for the life of me i cannot find where. So does anyone have any ideas as to where my contacts have gone??. They arent on the sim card as i usually keep them on the phone memory. Ive checked through the phone memory...checking through all the files and cant see where they have gone...they have obviously been taken off the phone when the stupid thing decided to synch itself before i had a chance to stop the synch. I dont know how it synched because it only installed the microsoft stuff after the first synch.
Anyways really hoping someone can help as i cannot afford to lose all these contacts that i have had on the phone...
I would say that it synced all your contacts from your laptop to the Diamond i.e. nothing. It is usual to sync this way when first connecting.

Did you never synct your contacts with any Gmail or MSN account, or did you never create a backup of your system with SPB backup, if you have then there must be a way to import them again in Outlook and sync them to your phone, an other way maid be easy recovery, with this program you maid be able to find your .pst back at your harddsik important is that you install as less as possible during the time you didn't found it back cause everytime you install something at your pc the possebillity to overwrite the .pst files gets bigger.

I did something very similar and learnt my lesson the hard way. Good news was I recovered quite a few contacts from old phone and even better news is that I've cut down my contact list to people I actually contact, rather just accumulate!
I broke my phones screen so I can't accesss anything on my phone really, whats the best way to get contacts off a phone that are not saved on a SIM?
I was using a ROMeOS or however it was spelled and it was 6.1
I was thinking about trying to use outlook, do you think that would work when I sync them up? My phones not with me right now.

Active Sync and Outlook would work.
Also, Try using MyMobiler to Remote Access you phone via your PC, and then use PIM Backup
Or (as a final option) Copy \PIM.vol from your device root.

I got windows Vista, and i can't figure how to do nothing with the sync or the mobile device manager, its like it has no options for any of that.
how do i transfer my contacts that are now in "Windows contacts" to my Diamond ?
- also, appearntly i can't do anything with my vista, stuff just won't work, it won't sync (or i don't know how) any one has experience with this ?
I think im gonna go back to my iphone this phone is driving me crazy it's too complicated for a phone and it's annoying on top of all.
Thanks in advance.
Use the owner manual

Sorry for my english, but I have the contacts sicronized with vista and XP my 2 notebooks.
For this I user the owners manual and resolve the problem. I dont remember how because i dont have problems. I change many times the room, and syncorized again without problems.
Carlos
but how do u sync ? using what software ? i see the device it says: connect in the mobile device center but there is no options there to choose what to do just shows that its connected.
and when i try to flash a rom it says im not synced
As far as I know (and from a quick Google search), it's not possible to sync contacts from Windows Contacts. Only Outlook's contacts are supported.
Wouldn't it be easier to sync your contacts via your Windows Live Messenger or Outlook? I have my contacts stored in my messenger contact list and when I sync it with Windows Live the same information is synced to my contacts.
But i can't sync at all, I don't have active sync or anyway to choose my device and click sync it ! .. ?

Well then the first step would be to get ActiveSync. It's a free download from Microsoft (remember if you have Windows Vista or 7, get Windows Mobile Device Center instead).
The problem then is the fact that you don't have Outlook so you won't be able to sync anything. As VerusAmos said above, the best option if you don't have Outlook is to use the Windows Live contact sync. Of course, I'm not sure how this will help if you have all your contacts in Windows Contacts format.
It does seem pretty stupid to me that MS would just ignore people who don't have Outlook.
