Greetings,
My old eTen x500 had a feature I kind of miss. I could assign a button to Recorder and as long as I held the button it would record a voice note. Then when I would connect to the PC via active sync, the recordings would show up as Outlook Notes where I could quickly review and delete them.
I know that HTC has it's own recorder, but it does not work by holding a button, I cannot assign it to a button in the same way, and the recordings do not sync with Outlook.
Is anyone aware of a way to get the functionality back. It was native to 6.1 not an eTen app.
I am running 6.5.
Thanks for any advice.

Hmm, for alternatives, try vito recorder or resco recorder. I'm not sure if either of these sync to outlook. But I do believe the filename is matched up with the date etc. Thenn you could set it up to always save the files in your my documents folder as mp3s and when you do sync to your computer as long as you told activesync to sync up the folder then it will automatically copy that file to your computer w/each sync.
Thanks for the reply. I have Resco Audio Recorder. I did not think about putting it in a sync'd folder. That may be a good work around.

I got this strange problem. Contacts which have photo callers embedded or those which have notes written on them won't sync to my Kaiser.
Only plain contacts with no notes/photo will be tranferred.
I tried to hardreset, delete partnership, reinstall activesync etc and none seems to work.
If I edit the contact photo & notes from kaiser and sync it back to outlook it will works. Seems like it is set automatically to PPC overwrite PC?
What is so strange is that my other devices: Samsung i600 & MTeoR will sync just fine.
Anyone else have the same issue? and knows how to solve it?
Thanks.
Mine works fine. I have over 1000 contacts which more than half has photos and notes in it.
Same here, contacts with Photos and notes sync just fine on mine. Wish I had an answer for you.
Mine work fine too
I've had trouble with mine too. The initial sync sent all the contacts down except ones with photos or notes. Add a new photo to the kaiser and it syncs ok back to outlook, but not the other way.
In the end forked out for pocketmirror from http://www.chapura.com/pmp_wm.php
Its now syncing everything correctly, and means I can sync my work contacts separately from my wife's pda's. Doesn't let you sync remote Exchange yet though.
id reinstall activesync off of the install disk. a good place to start
As I have been sifting through the forum I have come across several threads about people wanting to know how to get rid of outlook e-mail from messages.
The e-mail I have set up on my kaiser is the same as my outlook on my pc, so when I sync I get duplicate e-mails and have to disable the option to sync mail with pc, but this still leaves the outlook account in messages.
Well here's how to get rid of it.
First you will need a registry editor, I recommend Resco Registry editor but others will work fine.
Then you will need to make a backup of the registry key we are going to delete. So open up your registry editor and go to: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Inbox\Svc
Now in here you will find several folders(so to speak). These include Activesync, imap4, pop3, MMS1 and SMS.
Go into Activesync and their should be a key called "Friendly Name" this should say something like "Outlook" go back to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Inbox\Svc then select the "Activesync" folder and use menu to export the folder as a .reg file (backup file) then select the "Activesync" folder again, but this time delete it.
Now close your reg editor and go into messages and the Outlook title should be replaced with the title Activesync. Just soft-reset your device and the Outlook mailbox including "Activesync" has now disappeared leaving just the e-mail accounts and other message accounts that you use whilst mobile.
Should you wish to restore this option just inport the .reg file you created into the registry and soft-reset and it'll be back.
Well I hope this helps. And quick thanks to all members of this forum for your continued support to the community and even helping the little guys.

Thanks! Great solution!
EDIT: Wiped out my outgoing MMS. Dropped registry backup back in and both MMS and Outlook Mail were back.

Why do you have duplicate emails? With an exchange server, your emails on device and in your pc's outlook will replicate - and without exchange they sync anyway?
What's the settings for MMS1? I don't have that in my registry.

Each of these folders represent an account within messages. So "Activesync" is "outlook" (used and updated when syncing with a pc version of outlook or using an exchange server), IMAP4 Corresponds to my (@btinternet.com/using imap), SMS is for SMS (go figure/lol), MMS1 (this can also just be MMS on some device/dependant on version of Arcsoft) POP is for my (@3mail) account and Hotmail is for hotmail (in juction with using Windows live).
So by deleting the "activesync" folder you are in effect deleting the information to display the account.
Also I deleted the imap4 folder (after making a backup of course of the reg entry) And soft-reset the device. It removed my @btinternet account with e-mails. But after i imported the .reg backup I made and soft-reset the device again the account returned with all e-mails intact and fully readable.
**Possibility for a freeware app to hide accounts that are private??? using a password to auto add/remore .reg to access accounts or maybe not. **
Thanks trying to bring something to those who have helped me... Thanks

Hi unwired, The reason I get duplicates is because I don't actually use an exchange server. I have my @btinternet.com account set up on both my home Supreme Pc, My laptop and my Kaiser. But when I used to cradle my kaiser with my pc (mainly for appointments) to update it used to download my e-mails from outlook on my pc to my kaiser. So in the outlook account on my kaiser would be all the e-mails from my pc version of outlook, then in my @btinternet.com account were the same e-mails that I collected whilst I was mobile.
So I needed access to my @btinternet account whilst mobile but in the outlook folder that wqould not let me sync so then i had to set up the other.
So i stopped it syncing with outlook messages on the pc and then decided to try and get rid of the outlook account, which is what i then proceeded to do!
Ok i am going to stop now before i start going round in circles..
But thanks for the question..

Your welcome mate. To be honest I think it was your comment about it I came accross the other day on the forum, which is one of the reasons I decided to post it. I'll try and help more if I can. I've just setup talking dial tones. so when I dial a number it says the number rather than beep. Thanks to grumps for the tones!! I think he's compiling an app to do this easier. But i couldn't wait and so set it up via the registry...
Oh www.htcclassaction.org reports we could have proper display drivers by the end of march!! So fingers crossed our Kaiser will fullfil their legacy!!

I don't have that registry file (obviously). I have the Shogun's Palm SMS threading program installed and lost my MMS'. The fix to install the Arcsoft composer and run an enablemms.cab never worked for me. I wonder if this is what it's trying to fix.

Yeah, sounds like it. If you post that .cab here. I'll take a look for you mate and see what I can come up with over the next week. Failing that I can take my .reg setting for the mms and possibly create a link to the default messaging app.
However my best mate has an o2 xda orbit and I installed WM6 on it but there is no 6.1 yet and he wanted threaded sms. So i installed Shogun's Palm sms. Now when he opens that app he does not have mms, however when I linked to the default messaging app that still contained his mms account and all the mms I sent him were waiting there for him.
So try this out and if you need my help just ask. You can PM me for my e-mail address if you want to send the .cab direct or ask for any other help. I am at work tomorrow(or should I say today) and am on a sleep over so i will check my pm but it'll be from my Kaiser.
Hope I could help..

I have used a .cab analyser on the enablemms.cab and it contains no registry entries at all (none will be added or removed(except for unistall info and platform.reg which I believe is more to do with os at a guess))
and contains these files:
CeSetup.dll in the \Program Files\Tools Folder
checkfile.exe in the windows folder
Platformxxx.reg in the windows folder
CM_Entries.xml in the windows folder
And
Customize.lst in the \Program Files\Tools folder
Let me know how you get on..

hi there again...
the trick works great, but I think, that I have a small problem in here.
after applying Your trick on my stock t-mob uk vario III everything went fine except loosing sound for new sms. even if I have ticked in my options to play sound and show message I can't hear or see any notification. only sign of new message is number of new messages in the middle of htc home plugin.
now.. I made a backup of that key before deletion, but...
I've deleted it.. '(-_-)
any chance for You to post that .reg file for me mate?? or if You have some other solution, then I would be more than happy to avoid hard reset.

No worries mate, I still have sound on my sms notifications although I did have to deselect play sound in sound and notifications and reset then re-select the play sound option. And it worked for me but I have a stock htc tytn II. I am at work on my kaiser at the moment and the browser won't let me add an attachment, so when I get my laptop out at 6 i'll post the .reg entry. Fancy deleting it !! lol.. Check back around 6.30. It'll def be on tonight pal..

I know I sound like a dumbo saying that it's deleted.. but ... oh well

Thanks for the update diigibio. I appreciate any help. How did you link your friend's phone to the default MMS messaging app? Or would it help if I tried to reapply registry settings?

The default messaging application remains untouched, especially when installing third party replacements such as SMS threading (IMSMS, Palm, Textr and so on). The default link goes to \Windows\tmail.exe.
The quickest way to do this is by using Resco File Manager. click on the tmail.exe and hold until (right-click) menu appears and click "send to" then choose "Start Menu as Shortcut".
Once this is done you can access it via the start menu or use the button app to map it to a button or use with a today screen plugin (spb etc) As when you install the third party app it either replaces the original shortcut with its own or alters the original link to point to the third party app.
Hope this is of some help...

Thanks! worked great for me on WM 6.1 I didn't see the active sync option before the restart either.
Guys,
My org uses goodlink (good.com) as the email service provider not microsoft's push mail. I recently upgraded to a tilt and changed the rom promptly to schapps latest release.
The way the good software works is that it adds its own software stack (email/contacts/calendar etc) which syncs to the my outlook. The problem this creates is that my contacts do show up (the right softkey button leads to contacts which are the goodlink contact list) but are not connected to my dialer.
To be able to use smart dialling i then have to manually sync my phone to my computer to copy the contacts again which is a pain. My previous phone was based on windows 2003 whose dialler showed the goodlink contacts directly.
If there are any ideas or suggestions please let me know.

This is not what is supposed to happen. I use GL too. If you sync with Active synch eventually, you will end up with duplicate contacts. Sometimes it takes a bit of time for this to occur. This applies to GL 5. In 4.9, I had to do exactly as you are stating...synch only the contacts with active synch.
interestingly, I have a post regarding Good Mail. I found that using the XDA Live 3.0 (WM6.1) with the reTOUCHED dialpad, my contacts, while in the phone mode, linked to my Lotus notes contacts, not my local ones.
If I'm understanding you correctly, this is exactly what you want to happen (exactly the opposite of what I want to happen on mine).
I have 5.0.3.23 good mail with the above and it works the way you want yours...
Good luck,
MBN

With 5.0 the contacts are shared. If you sync with active sync, they will be duplicated because you are already syncing the mail server. GL 5 takes over much more of the system than past versions. I have found no way to change its behavior at all. If I make changes, it has protections in it that undoes the changes.
thanks for the help guys. I got on IT's case and changed my GL version to 5.0 and a hard reset and the installation of the retouched dialler everything is now working exactly the way i want it. Thanks guys!

Have you tried using Microsoft Voice command with Goodlink contacts? in my search for a solution i found a thread on another forum which said that voice commands/dialling wont work with goodlink contacts and we will have to sync them again. Im going to be trying it anyway but just wondering if somebody has already done the effort.
I can also vouch for that. I am the good admin at my org and the latest 5.0.4.46 works quite nice with outlook contacts and allows for smart dialing.

I use voice speed dial and it works with GL 5 owning the contacts without doing a sync via active sync. Haven't used MS VCMD so ymmv.

Hi,
can anybody tell me the easiest way to copy content like SMS, contacts (multiple phone numbers, address, email, photos), calender entries etc. from my Sony Ericsson K750i to the Diamond?
Thanks
I want to know that to! Couldn't get the Diamond to recieve the contact file from my SE K800i via Bluetooth..

Hello and welcome to xda-dev,
You have to use the Sync app from Sony-Ericsson on your PC.
The phone numbers, adress email, and calender entries are going to be copied on Outlook. After that, transfer your photos in a folder on you PC.
Synchronize your Diamond with ActiveSync (or Windows Mobile Device Center on Vista) follow instructions for all entries. Copy your photos where you want on the Diamond.
Sync your SE with Outlook. Software is available from SE or use 3rd party software.
For other files (pics, ringtones, etc.) use the bluetooth explorer on your Diamond or use USB cable.

Thanks, great! I guess I can create a new profile in Outlook in order to not mess up my existing Outlook contacts with my phone contacts. Right?
No!
Your contacts have to be in the MAIN Outlook-Contact-Folder
NOT in a subfolder, cause ActiveSync is not able to sync
subfolders in Outlook- neighter calendars nor contacts...
Is there any way to copy my SMS messages to the diamond?
No chance?

I fear that the only way to do it is using Jeyo Mobile Extender: http://www.jeyo.com
hmm... looks good. But how do I get the messages from my SE into Jeyo? I managed to transfer them to my PC to a xls file but I cannot load them into Jeyo...
I am saving the less important user credentials as well as some other short stuff like registry keys and other short notes on the notes in Outlook/Exchange.
On my HD2 with WM 6.5, I used to sync these notes and and also automatically had them at home too when I synced the pda with my home outlook.
Now with Desire HD, it does not sync the outlook notes.
Is there a way to sync outlook notes under froyo?
Somebody knows of some other solution to achieve this? I usually work on the desktop and therefore also want to administer and use the notes-information there, but it should also be safed on the pda for use out of office.
Outlook notes where also handy, because they followed automatically the move to a new pc and I do not have to install some additional program.
I know of secure solutions like KeePassDroid, but it seems to be a bit too complicated to handle when used frequently.
Hi,
I am using Documents To Go to sync my exchange stuff, I can choose which folders are synced. Although I do not use the notes myself I am quite sure they can be synchronized as well.
Only hickup I see (do not like it myself) is that it does not sync with two PC's at a time. This means if You sync with two PC's there will be two folders on your SD card, not one.
Maybe this would be a solution. If You do not want to edit the files on your device, there is no need for the full version either,
regards,
Ruud
