Every morning my Alltel PPC-6800 phone is locked with a password. I didn't enable the feature so I don't know the password.(tried several) When I reboot the phone the problem appears to go away until the next morning. I have DCD 3.1.2 ROM and 3.39.10 radio. If I enable the feature and set a password, the password I set works.
Are you connecting to a corporate Exchange server? If so, your Exchange administrator can require your Windows Mobile device be protected by a password. The first time you connect it should tell you that one is required and ask for you to set it up.

I recently upgraded my XDA to 4.01.00 rom with 6.24 radio stack. Before the upgrade I was using the server based activesync with Exchange 2003 to synchronize email, schedule and contacts. After the upgrade I now get errors stating that I didn't have permission to perform the operation with a HTTP_400 error. I turned on verbose logging and the log shows permission denied on the web server. (keep in mind that this still works fine for other PPC 2002 users.) I have verified that all remote sync permissions are set correctly for each user. I have verified that in the Exchange System Manager the Mobile Services are setup correctly. I have created a mobile service and set the smtp domain to @tmomail.net I have created an smtp connector with the same name tmomail.net and it is used when mail is sent out to tmomail.net for instant notification of emails. (Which doesn't work either... I have a call open with Microsoft on this and I will post the resolution here if they provide one)
Now it gets weird... I have figured out that if I do not set a password in ActiveSync for remote sync it will prompt me for a password. If I either enter no password or a bad password and select to continue it will prompt me again for a password. I do the same thing again and it will then prompt me again. On the third prompt, I enter the correct password and it works fine!
I have found several references to this issue, minus what I have found out with the third time a charm senario, and no one knows the resolution.
I am hoping someone can help me out.
Thanks,
Doug
I thought I would share the cause of my problem. The ActiveSync virtual directory on my IIS server had both Basic and Windows Integrated Security turned on. Only Basic security should be used on the ActiveSync virtual directory. Note: The exchange virtual directory should have both though.
I upgraded to the new a.30.07 and I can not do a wireless Activesync, I get "Synchronization failed. Try again, and if the condition persists, reset your device. Erroe code 0x80004005" I have done a hard reset and retried with out any apps installed and I still get this error message. Has anybody had this probelm and fixed it, or can someone point me in a direction?
TIA

Did it work before you did the upgrade, if so check your VPN connection settings.
FYI I've never been able to get it to work!

Yeah I got it to work again. I did another hard reset and it started working again. It doesn't use a VPN connection, rather SSL and you have to tell your XDA to accept any SSL certificate, unless you can afford to buy a cert from Verisign.
Great! 8)
I'm interested in seeing your configuration / settings if you're will to post them. :wink:

I'm running Exchange 2003 on Windows 2003, by default under the user properities, all Mobile Services are enabled under the Exchange Features tab. Also, your Windows box has to be able to dish out SSL certificates so enable Certificate Services, create a certificate and install it into your default web site. Then you need to install a cab file on your XDA called AS_Cert_OFF.CAB, just Google it. Then in Activesync on the XDA, under options, server enter the server IP and your username, password and domain and then try to sync. Things are different if you are using MIS 2002 with Exchange 2000, as MIS can not reside on the same box as Exchange, and I've never gone down that road.
Here is some good information about troubleshooting the Always-Up-To-Date Notification feature of Exchange 2003.

Has anyone got VPN connectivity working with DCD 3.2.5? I have been trying for hours with no luck. Every time I try to connect I just get the generic unable to connect message (VPN Server problems. Verify your username and password..... I do know its not a user name / password issue. I set the VPN up and administer it. Its a ClarkConnect Community Edition Firewall Router 4.3.
I can however use the phone with Internet Sharing and connect to the same VPN end point with my laptop. I know the VPN is working.
Any one have any experience with this?

I'll be honest. I haven't really tried yet, but I am interested in getting this working myself, as I need to set it up; in addition to somehow getting this damn thing to connect to my school's network - which it has refused to for many weeks now.

Did you try using the kitchen and enabling the Enterprise IPSEC checkbox? It's the first item on the list. I assumed this was for those who needed VPN connections, so have not used it myself personally.

yep you need that for IPSEC vpn, but PPTP vpn would work without it.

Yes. Im going to flash back to a stock ROM later today and test.
I'll post the results.
DCD have you ever got PPTP to work?

Telus ROM can authenticate just fine. Hmmmm. DCD Any thoughts?
PPTP VPN works
Here is what I did:
Configured the VPN connection.
Create a nework exception for a valid DNS name or use wildcards:
*.myvpnconnection.com
Anything you go to in that domain will use the VPN. IE seems to be the only thing that will initiate the connection.
It sounds like you might have something wrong on the server side.

I just setup mine to use the vpn into my office and it worked slick as "stuff"... but we use a MS VPN server with AD...
I'm able to use VPN on 3.2.5 (stock, not cooked in kitchen) It works, but often time I have to soft reset before it will let me connect. Windows even suggests it... I haven't figured out a way around this when it happens, other then to soft reset.
Also I'm having a problem where VPN locks up the phone if I leave it connected, and the phone goes into lower power mode. It won't wake up with power. I have to soft reset.
Lastly, I'm trying to figure out the fastest way to actually launch the connection. It seems horribly buried / inefficent, the way I'm doing it:
I'm going to Start -> Settings -> Connections Tab -> Connections Icon -> Under the VPN Connection hitting "Manage Existing Connections -> VPN Tab -> Selecting the VPN Connection and "right clicking (hold until context menu pops up) and hitting "Connect".
Anyone know of a faster way?
Thanks in advance!!
PPTP and L2TP work fine here. I do have an issue where if I leave the connection live and the device goes to sleep it doesn't wake up and requires a soft reset. It's been like that for a number of revisions. Other than that it works fine.
Device is a Sprint HTC Touch Pro. Every time I connect it to my laptop with the USB cable to ActiveSync it makes me enter my password on the phone before it will sync. This is rather annoying. I also do Exchange ActiveSync which requires the device to have a password set for security reasons.
Is there some way to disable having to enter the device password every time I sync with the computer, or is this just something I am going to have to learn to live with due to the device password requirement in order to do Exchange sync?
I know on my old Treo 700 there was a way you could just disable it but I can't find anything like that on this device.
Help please!!!
So I'm the only one having this problem??
When I first set up the active sync with my PC it asked me if I want to use a password every time I sync with my PC. The default is yes. Try delating the partnership and set it up again. I am also syncing with an exchange along with my PC.
Since you have a password set up on your device, you'll be promped on ActiveSync to enter the same password. So yes you'll have to live with it. I know it kind of is annoying.
I've had Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync set up on my phone for a few weeks now. Over the past weekend I noticed that it quit working. When I opened up the email app it said something to the effect of it wasn't connecting to the server. I deleted the email account and tried adding it in again, but it just won't connect. I will put in my email account and password and it'll eventually say it couldn't connect and there is a button to manually edit the setting. When I click that It shows the server as pod51010.outlook.com. I know this is the correct server and since I didn't put it in it must have been able to successfully find the server, just will not allow me to connect for whatever reason. I have co workers that are using other android phones(HTC inspire, Samsung Stratosphere, Google Nexus) and none of them have the issues. It's just my phone.
Anyone have any idea what's happening?
EDIT: I also check my Captivate and it no longer works, So maybe its just a selection of Samsung phones.
