for the past few weeks i have not been able to connect my phone with any computer using any cord. all are either vista computers or they have active sync 4.5. at this point i have reached the conclusion that the problem lies with the phone itself. i may have deleted the whatever it is that runs the usb on the phone.
any suggestions or past experience would help. i don't really feel like spending money on a new one. it gets frustrating when many mods are done from (or at least started) on the computer, and then require my to connect my phone.
btw... i have synced the phone many times before the problem started using all the same components i am trying now.
EDIT: the battery icon shows it is charging when i plug it into a usb, but from there, i have nothing, and i have also reset memory a few times since then too.
Thanks again from a modding newb!

How are you trying to sync it? Plug it in and wait for Active to launch? Launching Active yourself and clicking connect, or from within the phone itself?
I wonder if disabaling USB charging would allow you to sync it up again.. Have you reinstalled the computer software from the CD again?
I am sure there is something you can do aside from a full phone reset...
At first, i just plugged it in, like i do every day, and wait for active to launch, but it didn't, so i opened it manually.
I tried reinstalling from the OEM disk, and also downloading directly from Microsoft (both AS 4.5).
ill poke around and see if i can disable USB charging like u suggested. thank you.
Not sure if this is normal but, ActiveSync is always loading itself. Not been near a USB port or connected over BT. Even when a fresh restart is done, it loads... is this normal or not ?
If I quit it, I can still sync to my Mac via USB no problem.
I dunno but if you find out, let me know.... Activesync CONSTANTLY loads by itself for no reason at all.
I can do a soft reset and not touch the phone and on it comes.
I can not touch the phone and give it ten minutes and on it comes.
I mentioned this to HTC and of course, they thought I was wierd... never heard of it before.
I installed "quick menu" because someone told me that it was easier to close out applications but it still didn't affect activesync from loading.
Anyone else have this problem?

ditto on all of the above...
searching "stop active sync", one of the many, many results brought me to:

you'll also find that some of our beloved cookers added to their ROM a little prog called "elias_asynckiller" (not so sure about the name......).
keep searching, you'll find it.
this is an old, old problem thanks to micr$soft

Hi, this is big issue, couse nobody solved it yet. How is it posible, that Diamond is verys low after connection with PC using ActiveSync? Just try it, try scrolling in programs folder, then plug Diamond to PC using active sync, disconnect it, and try it again. It will be much slower. Or try VS bench after Active Sync session, you will get much worse results. Graphic went from 2300 to 1300 points after Active Sync connection. Diamond goes to normal speed after soft reset only. Please, share you ideas and experiences with this issue.

Indeed its true, but it does not happen when you use the device as a Disk Drive.
Yes, I know, but this should not happen. Any ideas why? It is strange. Do you think it is becouse some software problem? None of my previous phones did this. If it is software, new ROM can solve it, but if this is hardware... Did some of your phones do this?
this happens with other HTC devices (and maybe other WM) as well. I have a TC, and I notice it too. Its only when it's actually doing the sync. Once the sync is completed, mine goes back to normal. And when I disconnect, all's good as well. Are you saying its slow all the time once you activesync, even if you then disconnect?
Yes, exactly. I disconncet Diamond from PC, even stop ActiveSync in task manager on Diamond, and whole system is much slower. As I wrote, vs bench takes 1000 away after active sync. But, and that must be mistake, vs bench add 700 point to saund test, but as I said, this must be error of VS Bench. Whole system is slow.
Hmmm, well that's strange, and I don't know what might be causing that (esp sinc eI don't have a Diamond myself). i did have a similar issue with my TyTN a while back. I think it amounted to some software I installed and a very "dirty" notification queue. I ended up hard resetting and all was back to normal. I hope it isn't something like that for you.

Ahhhh, so this may be the issue I've been having ...
I'm going to have to test this further to confirm but after a soft reset, my "bubbleshooter" game (yes, I know - childish for a 45 year old company director but it passes the time at airports etc.) works great. However, at some point after running several things, the game becomes very slow. Still playable but at half speed. I thought it was my Intellisync client (for Lotus Notes) or some of the background apps like quickGPS etc. but this may be it. I also confirm that even if I stop all apps (cleanly or forcibly), the problem remains.
I'll post back and confirm if I can duplicate or not. I will also check TaskMgr (the good one included on Dutty's ROM) to see what's running after a soft reset and what's running after ActivSync is started / stopped. Maybe it's leaving something behind ...
Regards,
Gary.
There is to much communication going on thats why its slow!
Probably 3 megs a second in commsss. Thats why its slow!
You have to understand the reasons of WHY and then you will make the peace with the kick asssss Jewel.

Sergio,
Sorry to bring bad news but you've missed the point completely .... We are talking about AFTER you've run Activesync, unplugged the device and shut down Activesync. When Activesync is running, for me it's to replicate mail, charge, copy files etc. - not to play games or watch films. When it's connected, I'm aware that there may be many activities ongoing so don't expect high frame-rate etc. etc. However, when I disconnect from the USB line and shut down Activesync, I expect full performance (which is not the case).
Hope that clarifies the issue for you.
Regards,
Gary.

the "kick ass commsss" should not but slowing down the device after the activesync has disconnected, i think thats the problem
Not only being slow even after being disconnected: Activesync starts up by itself and even if I shut it down, it reopens...

Yes sorry if I missed the point.
What about this: Check if active sync is still running after you activate it.
Either tap on right upper part to close or use Task manager to close activesync. Cause it still runs after you disconect the Jewel from computer.

Well, yes, for begining it is good that finally somebody cares about this problem. For now, only one thing that can reverse phone slowdown after activesync is soft reset. I tested it on other phones (Asus P535, Mio a701) no one has this problem. But they all were running WM 5 maybe WM 6.1 coue this problem. I am begginer, i can only guess, you are the experts, so please excuse my mistakes if there are some. If you want to know this slowdown in numbers, go to ROM development -> some benchamrking -> and open tab of tested ROMs. Original ROM 1.93 has very bad graphics points, but Very goo sound points. This is the ActiveSync problem. I tested it twice, after soft reset, benchmark results are similiar to other ROMs withount any "strange" numbers.
So, I wrote message about this problem to HTC, maybe, just maybe some fix will come.
I've been told about eLiAs ASyncKiller. It seems to kill ActiveSync when you disconnect.
This may solve your problem
It happens to me to, but i notice that when I close Activesync down the memory usage figures in the top right corner when you select the drop down arrow, dont change. In fact, as we all know, the memory usage creeps up, and when mine gets to about 70% the phone does get quite slow and a soft reset always fixes it. Then memory usage goes back to 56% starting from scratch.
I thought the memory leaking problems were fixed in the latest 1.93 ROM? Is this not the case?
Thats what I put it down to.

I had this problem on my Orange UK Diamond with factory ROM. After 2 hard resets it stopped happening but I had other problems with the phone and had it replaced. Now whenever I soft reset the newly exchanged phone ActiveSync starts up and I have to close from Task Manager. I have tried a couple of hard resets to no avail. I also quite often get problems with manila.exe that may be linked. I'm getting really frustrated with this device! Never had so many problems with a new phone/pda.

Connecting to Activesync but not able to Sync
Connecting to Activesync but not able to Sync
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hi,
I am having a strange problem with Active Sync.
When I plug in my mobile with USB and use active sync. it does not synchornise.
I have tried all the options liek chaning schedule, changing the settings and diabling advanced network functionality still I am not able to make the diamond synchronise.
Finally, I downloaded the active sync. 4.5 even then my problem remains the same.
It always shows the message "connected" ( green icon )and fails to synchronise.
thanks for any help..
Hey all,
On a couple occasions now, my Diamond (Telus CDMA) has refused to wake up from standby. After a soft reboot (by pressing the little button under the back cover) I can see that the battery has drained very quickly. The phone is also noticeably warmer than usual. Seems like it's getting stuck in some sort of processing loop and burning battery while it's at it.
Has anyone else experienced this problem, and does anyone know what's going on?
Thanks,
-Michael
the same thing has happened to me twice! phone was fully charged last night, woke up this morning and battery had drained completely and turned itself off.
any ideas?
Did you have bluetooth on and visible?
Not at the time.
I've since purchased some bluetooth headphones and now have BT enabled, but I've not had this problem in a while.
i had that happen to me once too, never again tho.
I have a setting, which I do not know the purpose of, but I unchecked it.
Start -> Settings -> Personal -> Today -> Items -> Time-Out of Today
(I have a dutch TD, so the translation may be not exactly correct).
Could it be that the TD is automatically reset by this setting?
Maybe it is also because ActiveSync became active and is draining the battery?
This is a tip from someone else:
DISABLE ACTIVESYNC NOTIFICATION
===============================
When I start up the Touch, ActiveSync is running. I stop it, but sooner or later it will show up in the Tasks running again.
I did the ActiveSync Fake server Trick(Fake IP, Set schedules to Manual, etc..), but that didn't help.
Here is the Fix:
In the windows/activesync directory there is a file called “CtrlLog” file, in the file I noticed that at certain times it would say “KeepAwake” so I knew there had to be something trying to keep ActiveSync running.
I download an app called “Task Manager by FdcSoft”, cool little app for Free, it showed me all the processes running in the background. The one that caught my eye is a process called “repllog.exe”, because it had an ActiveSync icon next to it.
So just messing around with “Task Manager” I went to “Notifications” and noticed there were three “repllog.exe” in the notifications list towards the bottom. After disabling and enabling “repllog.exe” one by one, I believe the one that is causing ActiveSync to keep restarting itself is the “repllog.exe” that has an Argument named AppRunAfterTimeChange(must scroll to the right to see it). So I disabled that particular “repllog.exe” and did a Soft Reset.
I no longer see ActiveSync in the Task Manager list unless I connect to the PC using a USB cable.

I used also asynckiller, but that did not work for me.
Still Async came sometimes active and asynckiller did not stop this one.
No I do not use asynckiller anymore, but disabled the one mentioned in my previous post and the problems have not appeared again.
ok so i'm going to try and write down everything that is going wrong with my phone right now.
when i boot it up, touchflo will not start, i just see calender and contacts on the bottom. if i click on contacts, it takes a while to load, then just says enter a name on the top. with no list of my contacts.
i can not receive or send calls. i just had a friend try to call me and the middle round button and the send button blink, but no screen pops up saying i have a call. i try to press send and nothing happens.
i can barely send a text message, it takes about 10 minutes for the text message to load if it even loads. can't browse the internet.
calender works fine, google maps works fine, small games work fine, like teeter. age of empires will not load though. messenger will not load.
i can browse my programs though and go into file explorer.
activesync is giving me a message when i try to connect saying
"Activesync cannot connect ot the windows mobile powered device. to troubleshoot the problem, click ok."
the scan after says this
Unable to establish a connection between the PC and the device. Get up-to-date solutions to common connection problems. Please click the following link: http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=65257
when i was drunk and camping on the weekend my phone gave me a message saying it could not start because it was not properly turned off the last time and said i would have to press the volume button to restart it, which i didn't do cause i didn't want to lose my contacts.
has anyone else had these problems? any way to fix it? or am i just going to have to do a hard reset?
also i'm not sure if the Pim Backup v2.8 works for the diamond? i'm in there reading right now.
another problem i noticed is that when loaded a text message, if its the first text i've gotten from a number it loads really fast, but when i load one from someone that i've communicated with for a while, it takes forever to load if it does. most times it just doesnt load and freezes for a bit.
I think we need some more information. Maybe if you answer these questions, someone can help you, before you'll have to hard reset..
The ROM version?
The TF3D version?
What software, like lockers, screen rotators, key mappers, task managers, battery savers etc. are running in the background (as a service)?
What does Settings - System - Memory say about free program memory?
Anyway, PIM Backup works fine on the Diamond. Good luck!
