Recently, my phone won't automatically retrieve my emails from the Exchange server. I have everything set correctly (including schedule and to receive every 5 min) but I have to manually retrieve my email. Also, I noticed that Activesync is not running. Isn't that required for Outlook email to function correctly. If I load Active sync and click sync, it loads new email. However, once I navigate away from Activesync, it does not show up in Task Manager.
Currently using Romeos' latest ROM but the issue is the same with other ROMS. I've retrieved my email on my phone for three years and have loaded many ROMS, so I'm 100% confident I'm setting up everything correctly.
yes you need active sync open to recive email. when you navigate away are you clicking the close at the top right (the x) if so check your settings in task manager
start > Settings > system tab > task manager > button tab > make sure 'end programs by tapping x' is not ticked if it choose the other option and problem solved.
Same here... No solution yet...

I have the same issue... Taskmanager is configured correctly, AS is configured correctly, but still;no automatic sync... However, it does work when I have the "as items arrive" configured. I want my battery to last as long as possible, so I don't really like this workaround...
Any ideas?

Thanks for the advice but my Task Manager is set to close apps by 'holding x'. Besides, even if I press the home key, Activesync disappears (i.e., it is no longer shown running in task manager).
Please post the required information when asking for help. Have you searched active sync? If you have you would have seen 100's of threads and post concerning it. What build of Rom are you using or is the chef using? there is a well documented problem with some of the builds and data connections and or active sync issues. Did you see those post? Have you tried flashing an older ROM to see if the active sync issues are gone?
Finally, this information should have been addressed in the thread where you got the ROM (Romeos). If no one else is having the issue in there, then it must be some other application you installed or your IT department has set up some new security procedures. I have posted a fix to the active sync issue in three threads if yours is in deed the same. One is a cab the other is aregistry edit. It has worked for some. You should search for it and you will find it.
Search
Yes, I searched (here and Google) and didn't find anything. I posted in the ROMeo thread with no luck. I always attempt to find info before I ask. You could have been a little nicer and posted your threads which present a fix. Have you "ever" asked a question and was told to go search. Does it really even matter? Why does it bother you so much?
And
I even attempted a search for posts by 'you' concerning 'active sync' and got nothing related. The vBulletin message board is not one of the more friendly boards to search. Most of the time it is like finding a needle in a haystack. The returned results are usually numerous, provide links which have nothing to do with the keyword searched. Most people don't have time to filter through 1000 messages to find an answer.
Test (of many): I did a search on outlook, email, automatic, http://forum.xda-developers.com/search.php?searchid=21868332
The result I got is one link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=444784&highlight=outlook+email+automatic
No where on this page is the word 'Outlook', 'email' or 'automatic'. The word 'automatically' exists. This is how flawed vBulletin search is. And you wonder why people ask the same questions again.

In the wiki it tells you to search via google and have it search XDA for the information. Here is the link to Google...

Thanks you for editing your post from what I first read this morning....since you changed it look here...There is an issue with some of the newest builds that Chefs are using...the 21018 is just one of the builds having problems...

This is starters....there was a cab posted in those threads please read search the threads you will find the cab,...However, as stated before it doesnt work perfect....the best thing to do is to switch roms...most chefs have done this including NRG and RRE....try one of those ROMS they changed their builds..
Great
This is good information. I've made the registry change and it seems to work. Thanks for the help.

i found some registry mods in wiki to get the BA to display first name last name in contacts but it says that you need to have cproghook installed.what is that and where can i get it?i tried a search in the forums but cant seem to shed any light on my query.is there someone who could lead me to the right direction?[/i]
I too would like this information and the thread starter is one up on me since I did not know there was a Wiki for this subject.
BTW - I am on MW5 if that matters [knowing my luck it will].
anyone?
cproghook has something to do with the phone application, in the Thread "a new button to quick dial" Mamaich gave us a little app that gives you a contacts button in the empty button in the dialer interface. You best look in that thread for some info on cproghook, since that has to do with some first/last name as well, but only in that little app! perhaps you have used it in the past and deleted it and the registry is still pointing to that program? For changing the order of contacts in the default contacts program, have a look around at this forum, I posted the link to 4 cab files somewhere that gave you the ability to choose how to display contacts. just search for "first name", "last name", "company name".
There is possibility to change manner of saving contact name to 'First Last' <-> 'Last, First' etc. in each of the contacts separately. But I'm looking for a solution how to do it on all contacts at once, but without using Outlook or any other computer software (directly in the device).
Thanks in advance for any suggestions...
Please search the forum, I am sure I answered this questuon about a year ago. It involves downloading a few cab files, which give you that option in the context menu. I no longer have the files ( did not need them), but there is still a link floating around here somewhere.

I've found this:

But not tested yet. Paul from MoDaCo also suggested using WebIS Toolbox for that.
Those are the .cab files I meant. Install them on your device, then select all your contacts (there is a separate .cab for that as well, not available in that thread, you have to search for it, it provides an option in your context menu) and then bring up your context menu. Then select the way you want to store your contacts. Worked on my Hermes, not tested on my kaiser

'Select all contacts' would be the secret then, as it's not possible to select multiple contacts by default...
Correct, but I found a .cab file around that period that makes it possible. It only works once though, after selecting all contacts once, only a soft reset would enable you to do it again, some kinda bug I think. But that file was posted here at xda or at modaco, it worked for me.
check out this tool @ http://www.shubaroo.com/index.php?module=contact. it's worked for me without issue...

Thanks - it looks very promising, and I'll test it later in the evening
You need no .cabs to change the way the contact names are displayed on your WM6 Kaiser. Just select a contact and select edit then scroll down till you come accross "File as" click the drop down box and this will give you several options by which to list your contact. For example: John Smith, Smith John or Company Name (Even By Nickname). Try this out.. And hope it helps.
Yeah, sorry read your question wrong...Sorry don't think there is a built in option to change whole list at once. Better stick to those .cabs
Am I Bad!?
Hi Folks,
Firstly the standard disclaimer: "Apologies to all but I have searched existing threads (and RTFM) and can't find a definitive answer to this noob-type question"
So here's why I'm feeling stupid. I can't seem to find an option to stop the weather updating except when connected to a PC, short of going into settings and manually ticking the upper box whenever I plug in the USB and unticking afterwards!
Data costs a lot on my tarriff but I lik ethe weather, even if it only updates via AS.
Grateful for any advcie as always folks.
Adam.
Same problem here, it's one of the main reasons why I don't use Touchflo. Everytime I just click on the weather page an error dialog appears (can't connect... blabla). Very annoying!
it is not only a noob question, but the answer is so easy that you should be ashamed of yourself and spent some time just looking at your phone.
ever heard of a thing called menu?
it is on the lower right in the weather tab. press it, a menu comes up, choose settings and you are done.
or...... go to the store an get a nokia.
Hello everybody.
I am not so active on this forum, but now I am asking for a little help.
Is there any way somehow to export a single SMS thread to my PC or to a file on the Kaiser SD-card?
I need extracts from a single sms thread for proof in a case, and therefore I need to be able to email it.
Sure there is. If you hit that little Icon along the top bar thingy called "Search" (third from the left) and put in you thread title you should be able to find it.

I think he's referring to sms messages as in sms/mms text messages.
I'd be interested in a solution for this too.

hi there
http://freewareppc.com/database/pimbackup.shtml
works great for me
deselect everything except Messages - click on that, clik Options, deselect all from email section and select what You need from SMS options
click next, select location, deselect "binary backup" and select all of the "keep ..." options = this way messages are left in Your Inbox
when You get that file copy it to PC, change extension to txt - now You can open it in notepad - it has A LOT ADDITIONAL INFO for every message so if You want You can open it in excel for easier editing
open excel, go to File/Open, on the bottom of that window "Files of type" change to "All Files" - find that txt and open it, it complains that it is not recognizible, clik ok, and on next window select "Delimited", click next, select Semicolon, click Finish, start editing - be carefull if You delete whole columns - sometimes some rows are miss-synchronized... just check the whole column before deleting it.
Hope this helps...
P.S. it was nice to finally be of some use on this forum so I got keyboard-happy on this

Winner!
Somehow I lost Messaging capability. When I click on Messages from the main TouchFLO interface, touchflo itself closes and restarts on the home screen. If I try to access Messaging from the Programs section in the start menu, nothing happens at all. I have not deleted anything from the device nor have I added any other programs other than those listed at the start of the below thread.
Initially I set up the Fuze with these steps: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=459335
I did however change other settings to suit my needs but I don't know what happened. It sucks to have a messaging phone that you can't send messages from.
Please Help!!!
hello, i am not 100% sure, but when u did the hard reset and skip "customization ie. bloatware" messaging "or mms " might not have gotten loaded, in other words, messaging was included in the bloatware... but i am not 100% sure, but thats what it sounds like, if that is the case, you can search for an mms cab. im sure someone has make a cab file for it, i will search and let you know.
EDIT.... dude you posted in the thread were you found these procedures, if you would have been patient and waited another hour you would see that you recieved a responce. go check, please post as you did in the thread were you get instructions from, download or whatever and then wait patiently. reading the response in the other thread, messaging should be installed even though you skipped customization.
