possible solution for TomTom-home map transfering problems - Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General

I couldn't transfer my new bought western europe map to the diamond by using TomTom-Home and activesync. I use on the Diamond TomTom Ver.7.450.9028. After some time I got a message "connection lost" by TomTom-Home and activesync disconnects too
I tried everything...rebooting, hard reset, newest ROM, other computer, new installation of activesync...same result.
At last I tried a bluetooth activesync connection...and what should I say: I worked! Slowly, but no more disconnects

Hi, mine does not work, does it use GPRS to connect or it also uses WIFI?
it uses gprs, i cant seem to get a connection while on WIFI so i havent tried it, but when you set it up, it asks for you to select either gprs of fast/wifi/broadband connection. so i assume if you select your connection type as faster than gprs it would use wifi. 8)
Yes, I initially selected the 2nd of the two bandwidth options when installing and Wifi works great.

Some apps won't use data connection?

I tried posting this in the WM6 forum last week but didn't get any replies... so, sorry for the cross-post.
I'm having a problem with several applications, and I'm not sure if its problem with how they were written, or if the problem is in my WM6.
I leave my phone connected to my computer all day long. When I first started doing this, I quickly realized that it was using my computer's internet connection via ActiveSync instead of my phone's data connection. I didn't want this, and I found the option to tell ActiveSync "This computer is connected to my Work Network". After that, Pocket IE and IM+ (the two apps I use the most) started using my data connection and everything was good.
Then I started getting more apps, for example, TCPMP and Palringo. When I am connected to my computer via ActiveSync, these apps still try to use that connection instead of my data plan. The big problem here is that my work's firewall blocks things like IM and streaming media, so these apps don't work at all.
If I disconnect from ActiveSync and start up TCPMP and Palringo first, then they work just fine. It seems to stick with the phone's data connection once its established.
So, is this a problem where those programs are picking the wrong network adapter? Or is this some issue from running WM6 on my MDA? Maybe even something that's been fixed in a more recent WM6 rom?
Any help would be greatly appreciated! I have:
T-Mobile MDA
WM6 (InGeNeTiCs_15342_by_mfrazzz)
IPL/SPL 3.08

Activesync connectivity! GRRRR!

All of a sudden my activesync has stopped working. I can't connect via USB or bluetooth. It worked fine in the past! Now, if I plug in my Tilt with the USB it gives me an error message saying Activesync cannot connect, and gives me the option of troubleshooting. Going through the troubleshooting process yeilds no diagnosis; everything appears to be working ok.
If I try and sync with bluetooth, I see the Tilt connect, and then disconnect a few seconds later. No error messages, no nothing.
My Tilt's activesync window displays the message:
"To synchronize your device with a desktop computer, install the synchronization software from the Getting Started Disc included with your device on your PC." It once displayed info such as my last sync, etc.
I've tried reinstalling activesync, and disabled my firewalls.
Anybody else have this issue, or know of a fix?

Needs a little bump here

Sounds like something has changed on your PC, perhaps via a Windows Update. Have you checked to see if your firewall is the culprit?
You may also want to do a clean uninstall and then reinstall Activeswync 4.5 and create a new partnership with your device.
You can also try restoring your PC back to a date that you were able to use Activesync....
This happens to me rather frequently (I am looking for an ActiveSync replacement because of it).
However, I fix it by either soft reset of the device, PC, or sometimes both. If that doesn't work, you need to delete the partnership with the PC and reconnect.

...any solutions yet?
I just got my kaiser 3 weeks ago after using a wizard for almost 2 years. what a great phone the wizard was... I kinda miss using it! Anyhow, i just experienced the sudden activesync failure. I now get random activesync openings on my kaiser with the message "To synchronize your device with a desktop computer... yada yada".
I have already setup a bogus server and set the scheduling to manual.
I have compared the wizard registry to the kaiser registry by searching every instance of 'activesync' and couldnt find anything.
I also deleted all instances of activesync in the notification queue and had memmaid rebuild it.
The device will connect to activesync but pops an error message that it could not synchronize and goes into a guest account setting. So for now I am having to use pimbackup to backup my data on the kaiser, bluetooth it to my wizard, then sync the wizard with my laptop to get the data into outlook. I am considering a hard reset but kind of want to wait until the at&t 6.1 official Rom comes out. I am also considering Chapura Pocketmirror Professional which worked well on an old Ipaq i had (wm2k3) that had sync issues. I also want to get this resolved so i can practice loading a new rom on the wizard. So....
Anyone have a fix yet? I hope so!!!
Oh, and for reference (to answer questions from other threads), my kaiser battery drains 4 to 5 times faster than the wizard in side by side use, and the kaiser definitely does not have a transflective screen while the wizard does... bummer. but the kaiser is tremednously faster!
1. Disconnect the device from your computer.
2. Try going to your device and select:
start->settings->connections->USB to PC.
3. Uncheck "enable advanced network functionality"
4. Reconnect the device.
Active Sync....
Hi,
You can try "PocketMirrorĀ® Professional 2.2.4 for Windows Mobile", its a pretty good syncronization tool, but it costs a few bucks...
I've been using the trial version of PocketMirror and must say its pretty good with my TYTN 2.
Regs,
The Reaper.
... my thoughts exactly
yeah, i tried the usb to pc option as well. even downloaded a cab from another thread that allowed me to choose rndis or usb mode. neither worked. I will probably use pocketmirror pro as well...
Hi, I just flashed a new ROM on my Orbit that works brilliantly, no issues at all, apart from the fact that the computer now doesn't see the device at all. Not even the blo-blong sound when you connect any USB device. The only thing I get connecting the cable is charging the battery. And if I start Active Sync on my Orbit I get the same message as mystic_nacho:
"To synchronize your device with a desktop computer, install the synchronization software from the Getting Started Disc included with your device on your PC"
I just tried an hard reset to try to fix the issue - no success..
Before flashing everything was fine..
Btw, my wife Diamond doesn't connect either, and it never did it: something related to the TouchFlo thing?
Any idea?
The ROM I flashed is
gullums TouchFlo2D beta 4
update
I found the Diamond 'Getting started disc' and installed the Windows Mobile resources tool...
The disc I have from the Orbit box is for Windows Mobile 5, I guess it's not worth to find it out and try...
Nothing changed, anyway.
update 2
Yesterday night out of the blue - while the Orbit was still connected to the pc - ActiveSync started to work... F. knows....
i had the same problem - sync was working fine and then stopped. what worked for me was to go to USB to PC under settings and uncheck "enable faster data syncronization".
hi,
i also had sync. problems in the past.
searched for months.. since i figured out that some registry entries on my PC where missing!
imported the mayor setting from my brothers PC and TADAAAAAA. problem solved.
search my threads and maybe you 've luck with my soloution!

Have you recently used a memory cleaning Application like memmaid, Clear Temp, or SKTools? You might have cleaned out some important notification files, like repllog,exe that is used for activesync.
I had the same thing happen to me when I first used these cleaners. I had to do a hard reset on the phone to make it work again found out about the remedies listed below after the reset.
I have heard others were successful repairing these notification Queue's with MemMaid. You can hold your stylus on the repllog,exe notification, and a popup up will appear, asking you to Recreate ActiveSync, or rebuild notification Queue. I don't know if this feature is available in Clear Temp, or SK tools.
I've also heard of restoring activesync by unchecking all of the folders, syncing, and then adding each folder back to the list, one by one, until all is restored.
I too have just developed the same problem.
I have 2 TYTN II' one will sync fine the other wont.
It all went horribly wrong after I tried to install Wisbar and an Ipod theme, after I uninstalled it, cos it didn't work I found I could no longer sync with USB to PC and the sync option is greyed out on my phone. The phone will charge with some of my usb cables, but now even seems fussy about which cable will charge and some now won't.
I am given to wondering whether the usb connection on my Phone is the problem...everything else seems to be working fine.
I have even installed different ROMS via the memory card still the problem persists.
I would love someone to come up with a fix
**UPDATE**
Well I now have got it working, in my case I was right, the usb connection on the phone was to blame. I took it to a mobile repair shop, I told the guy that I thought it was faulty he took one look at it and said that I had a bent pin, he got a little tool out and teased it back into position, sure enough when I got home it worked fine so now I am able to sync again. Not sure how long it will last though.
**Update 2**
Failed again, at least I know what's wrong now.

loosing ActiveSync connection every 20-30 min

Hi to all,
every 20-30 minutes I loose the connection. I tried everything which came in my mind....leaving it alone (don't touch phone nor computer)....tipping periodically on the screen/accessing the storage of the phone by Windows Explorer...try the same at a different computer...all with same result...the phone get disconnected
The time it stay connected is enough for syncing with Outlook, but how should I get my new bought Western Europe map for TomTom 7 on the phone???
TomTom-Home is such a crappy software it can not resume after a connection loss. Everytime it starts again from scratch
Does anybody has an idea what could be the reason for this behavior?
Or how to copy the map files manually to the device?
Rom: 1.37.407.2 GER
Rom-Datum: 06/15/08
Be sure that the screen on the mobile do NOT get turned off, then you will loose connection, thats probably what happened. Just touch the screen every now and then.
Thanks for the hint...I tried this...same result.
But I found a workaround: If I use bluetooth instead of usb I don't have disconnects anymore (but transfering files is really slow).
Doing a activesync by bluetooth I could transfer my TomTom map with TomTom-Home without problems.

HELP!? TomTom HOME & ActiveSync - can't install maps

Hey there,
I'm having real issues installing TomTom maps on my Diamond and I actually need them tonight because I'm going on a longer drive.
Yesterday I bought the western Europe maps for Navigator 7 and got the TomTom e-mails within minutes. The downloading instructions told me to download the maps with TomTom HOME. It took about half an hour and I was able to download them in about 5 minutes.
I tried to install the maps on my Diamond with TomTom HOME (several times now) without success. TT Home starts installing and copying the files bu after a few minutes ActiveSync tells me that there's no connection to the device. So the copying stops. I noticed the same connection problem with ActiveSync before with "larger" files (about 50mb). Normal sync with Outlook works without any problems.
I tried to install the maps with two different computers so far. Every time the same problem. I tried it with the following setups:
- iMac with Windows XP SP3 in VirtualBox and ActiveSync 4.5 / TT home 2.4
- Dell Laptop with Windows XP SP2 and ActiveSync 4.5 / TT Home 2.4
As soon as I connect the Diamond to my iMac and use it in disc mode I can copy any file doesn't matter what size without problems.
Does anybody know how to solve this? I really need the maps running on my Diamond until tonight.
If I can't fix the ActiveSync / TT HOME installation problem, could I copy the files to my Diamond via disc mode? Can anyone tell me which files I have to copy where? I noticed that TT Home started copying the files contained in the Western_Europe_1GB.zip to a folder called "Western_Europe_1GB" on the internal 4G memory. I could copy them myself. But do I have to do anything else? where should the activation_map_*****.cab be placed?
I'd really appreciate any answers to solve this! (Also in German)
Thank you!
PS: My Diamond is a O2 XDA Diamond running the official O2 ROM 1.93
