Ok, I don't think that I ever saw anyone discuss this problem that probably affects all prophets with WM6 and 6.1 roms.
With WM5 official roms, never tried cooked wm5 roms, when Prophet was connect to a PC by usb in Windows with Activesync or Windows Mobile Device Center (activesync in Vista), if I turn off on the Power button the device stayed always power off until I pressed the Power button again.
With all WM6 and 6.1 cooked roms, if I turn off the device, after a few seconds the device is again turn on without pressing the Power button.
Why this was never resolved is a mistery to me. If anyone could resolve this problem, would be great.

Never experienced this. If I turn my device off when connected with ActiveSync, the connection gets terminated, and the device stays off.

Same here, I tested it on a few different PC's (only have one Prophet...) and nothing unexpected occurred.

Mine works like onesolo, I press to Off and after maybe 2 to 3 minutes it goes on again. But I don´t know if it is a bug, it may be a wake up on activesync tranfer data function.

Maybe it's the Portuguese AS build...
Nope, because this affects activsync in english as well. And as I told before, it happens in WinXp and Vista...
Im portuguese and I have the same problem I dont think it is strange, cuz my old PDA Ipaq H3850 did the same so I didn't care about it^^
With the oficial WM5 rom I never had this problem.
Also with my grilfriend's HTC P3400 I don't have this problem.

1. it is not a problem.
2. the Prophet needs to communicate with the PC once cradled or USB connection.
3. wanna stop from power on automatically in your case? Just uncheck the usb connection option from PC or from the Prophet.....
thats is the fact of your case. ^^
Good Luck
Funny, this used to sometime happen WITHOUT being plugged in. Not anymore...

1. OK, that, 90% is caused by software installed from the 3rd parties.
2. if too disturbing for that circumstance, hardreset should solve that "problem".
3. the above is based on solid experience.

wanna spend 6 minutes to flash Korand's fast, stable and clean WM 6.1 rom? try this 2 in 1 tool (with ROM) ^^

Hi all,
First of all, thanks for all the hard work done by everybody and of course we have to praise ourselves to take the risk in upgrading these unofficial ROMs.
I would like to list all the problems and their solutions for this WM2005 ROM in this topic.
1. This is only for Himalaya. Don't think it is suitable for xdaIIs, mini or xdaIIi.
2. Activesync 4 is not working with USB. ---------- Work after disable fire wall!!!
3. Setting Memory lost problem e.g. set button to do other task, set backlight brightness to middle, set user name, word completion setting, etc. they will return to original after a softreset - seems okay now w/ the full RAM version
4. Of course the biggest issue is the RAM size, Program memory size, etc. too small. ----- okay now w/ the full RAM version.
5. No MSN messager.----- okay now w/ the full RAM version.
6. Can't sync word files, it will change to pwi and the Activesync conversion setting doesn't have the file type for doc.----- okay now w/ the latest activesync.
7. Extrom missing ----- Found as storage now by using extrom tool.
8. can't make regional setting to Chinese even after installing knife Chinese patch. Can read chinese in fie explorer but not wmp or PIE.
9. Does it work w/ backpack? i have the backpack and can see the extra power bar but cant use cf wifi card.
Pls reply with your solutions if you have.
Many thanks.
Cheers,
yeah, agree to the bugs..
but my active sync4 works... min requirements is xp sp2. Uninstall previous sync, install sync 4..
other problems in magneto:
no camera and record button.
active sync program cannot be stop in ppc
no mms
thinking of other..
tho.. i love this OS and can sleep with the "bugs" and can wait for til fixes will come out (just do softreset if hangs )
tnx xda-developers,buzz(2005 guru) and kababayans toenailed,jojo for helping buzz..
camera and record buttons work on mine.
1. call end button does not work.
2. re-dial malfunction: uses last call recieved instead of last number dialed.
reverted to 2003se briefly to use my bible today :wink:
will revert later

Many of the things you're stating are not quite valid. What you have is Windows CE 5.0, not Windows Mobile 2005. The added programs such as Messenger, camera app, Word etc. are all added programs that define Windows Mobile. You're working with just the core operating system right now. These are also things that I'm *sure* won't be overlooked when Windows Mobile 2005 goes live.

I have also noticed that the the date and time revert after a soft reset, this is resolved on sync. in addition i have had problems syncing with exchange server useing ssl. I generated a hole new set of certificates to do it, still no joy, though it work without it. I would like to test the GPRS if any one has the settings for O2 contract mobile web. I have not as yet been able to detect it with SMS server either. i lost my phone for a while too. other than that I love it!!
USB activesync
Here's my observation:
AS4 works on a PC with USB 2.0 port.
AS4 does not work on a PC with USB 1.1 port.
Please correct me if I'm wrong.
Good day to all of you!

Only with Win XP with all updates or does it works with W2K, too?
my PC
Btw, here's my PC specs:
>PC with USB 1.1 - runs Win XP Pro w/ SP2
>PC with USB 2.0 - runs Win XP Pro w/ SP2 also
I based my observations on that. I may be wrong. So if someone can successfully sync Magneto w/ AS4 running on Win XP SP2 on a USB 1.1 port, let us know. Thanks!
My workaround on not being able to sync w/ a USB 1.1 Win XP SP2 PC is to sync using bluetooth.
Hi all,
Activesync works fine for me usb1.1/usb2.0 and i've just test it in bluethooth mode and it works !!
ACtivesync can be stop from ppc but sometimes the action respond later.
Camera application works but is very slow.
The major problem is the memory, i've ever crash pocket outlook database with this problem.

active sync 4.0 problems
Hello Xpirate !!!
If it doesnot work try to reinstall Active Sync 4.o beacuse everyone gets problem with that because it is BETA version and during installation choose Repair. Then soft reset your computer and resync your device. If u have saved all your e-mail and contacts and appointments to your outlook then u can choose to delete partnership.
1. Open Active Sync
2. Choose File
3. choose delete partnership
make a sync and your problem is solved !!
MORE PROBLEMS
HI, from all the problems you have mentioned, i have only got
1 My camera and Rec buttons are not working.
2 of course there is very little memmory left for anything, just do "STOP ALL"
before doing something major. )
3. My date and Time resets on an irregular basis, not every soft reset though.
4. all the proggys seem to be working just fine, it's just that you have to
install some of them on to the DEVICE which takes our pressious space away.
5. NO LUCK WITH xBACKUP. Device just hangs. I have tried to copy .EXE file from 2003se, and simply override it but even that didnot help.
6. "AS4 will not stop in PPC" TOTALLY AGREE. VERY ANNOYING as it tend to eat some RAM.
THE REST LATER, IF SOMETHING COMES UP.
OH YES, FORGOT TO SAY THAT NO MATTER HOW MANY BUGS, I AM LOVING EVERY MOMENT TESTING THIS OS. ))
hi,,gays i have i have only one proplem that the device coluld'nt sync with the active sync 4 which is defirent of yours in my device the camera and record key working 100% (i dont know how it works in device and don work in other device and also syncing)
:roll: i think these depend on the perv ver of windows (i was using 2.20.07 chs and the devise could'nt sync but the camera and record works fine and the others whose devises could sync they may was using 2.06 or 1.72 rom :? :?
here's some more bugs
More bugs:
> When turning ON flight mode, it indeed shuts off the GSM radio BUT the Green LED still blinks for another 20-30 seconds then finally switches off
> Assuming flight mode is ON (GSM radio is off), there's no way you can turn OFF flight mode (turn on GSM radio) unless you perform a SOFT RESET
> Unable to set MIDI files as ring tones (midiringtone.cab is not installed, haven't tried installing it) but the GREAT thing is you can set .mp3 files as ring tones!
> Assuming power is off (nothing is displayed on screen), pressing the record button wakes up the XDA II (sometimes the record app launches then records, but after pressing "stop record" button, it records again then again then again...so you have to stop record app forcibly-"Stop All" in the memory app)
Why I cannot mark all contacts to beam them to my handsfree carkit at once via BT? I´ve got to mark every single contact, choose Beam, waiting for BT, sending, next contact. In this way, I was only able to send approximatly 2-3 contacts per minute. Any suggestions?
Hello,
a friend of mine got his new Qtek 8500. He first installed the latest ActiveSync 4.2, then connected the Qtek with the provided cable to his notebook. Charging started, as expected.
However, nothing else happens. Device Manager can't find anything new, of course ActiveSync does not find the phone.
Tried already different USB ports, still the same. Charging yes, ActiveSync no.
Am I missing something? Like enabling USB on the phone?
8500 - not recognized
I had the same issue and was able to correct it by downloading and installng ActiveSync 4.5 Beta - http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/activesync/default.mspx
Hope that works for you also

Make sure all your firewall are off as well...
Try to turn off Spyware and Antivirus programs. It helped for me
A problem - activesync and qtek 8500
Yesterday I got my qtek. I immediately wanted to synch all my contacts, it didn't work however. The phone established only a guest relationship. Reinstall didn't help at all, neiter did a hard reset.
After about 4 hours of looking for a solution I finally found it. Its not mine but taken from
http://www.pocketpcfaq.com/faqs/t-shootactivesync.htm
- really wonderful guide to active sync problems.
The solution: (a quote)
"Check and see of the registration key at HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows CE Services and see whether a key named GuestOnly has a value of 1. If it does then change the value to 0 to allow you to setup a partnership."
after that - just one mean digit, it simply worked.
hope it helps anybody in any way
All,
My Hermes is able to charge via USB on the usb port of my pc, but the hermes is not seen by activesync. I tried soft aswell as hard reset, but nothing seems to cure the USB syncing....
Any suggestions?

You may check in your desktop PC if ActiveSync got "Allow USB connections" checked. It's in File -> Communications.

did you by any chance did a backup restore?
i had once or twice the same problem.
if so try another time to restore it or else with an older backup

try going to Start>Settings>Connections "USB to PC" and either check or uncheck the box
Same problem happen to my friend's dopod last a few week. I found out that activesync application was gone. Why not try to check your program folder, whether activesync shortcut still there or valid.
So I decide to reflash the roms. After that everything back to normal.
I had the same problem, what i did was to uninstall Activesync, then Reboot, Re-install ActiveSync.
It work after that.
Cheers.

I've had this problem numerous times, but i think i stumbled upon a fix/workaround. Its seems lately within the past month my 8525 has been flawlessly connecting to activesync after i did a hard reset and installed the ext rom software manually, one by one. I left out all of the cingular custom crap, and its been good so far! Before this i used to all always get a dropped AS connection but it would still be charging, or my phone wouldnt sync upon the 1st connection, and i would have to unplug and plug again!

I'm currently only syncing via bluetooth, works excellent!
I'll try the hard reset some other time.
But thanks anyway!

Firewallsoftware stops ActiveSync
ActiveSync 4.1 and up is IP-based instead of the standard USB-protocol. Some Firewall-software block any IP-based communication. If you're affected update your firewall-rules to allow ActiveSync to pass.
I had this today - my T-Mobile MDA Vario II would not sync with either home or work pc. It just kept saying "usb device attatched to this computer has malfunctioned"
I phoned tmobile, who told me to take out the battery and that they would send a reset signal to my phone. I took the battery out, put it back in, powered up, got a txt from t-mobile to say the reset had happened, plugged the usb cable back in and it synced properly right away.
Might be worth calling your provider see if the same works for you?
Using WM6 my Athena would turn anytime the keyboard was snapped into place. With WM6.1 that feature no longer works - I have to press the "power on" switch.
Anyone know how to restore this feature? I tracked down HLM\control panel\mycpl\... but did not see anything about the keyboard power on issue.
Many thanks!
That would be annoying! Its a useful feature, I agree. Sorry I can't help...

Make sure all the pins are making contact. Mine stopped doing it also and come to find out 1 of the pins (left one looking at it from correct key readout) wasn't making contact, due to the fact that I had dropped it. So double check it and let us know. Good luck!!!
it has nothing to do with that the problem is that wm6.1 was ported from another device so it has just about everything that wm6 for athen had but not all. example, device turns on when keyboard is attached. it should be fixed with pawel's new rom

Hello, greetings all
Want to ask of my confusing problem, i had Dopod 838 Pro always freeze when used as modem (using Internet Sharing). My past experience with shipped ROM was normal, but after using cooked ROM (schap's, CRC, PDAViet) and upgrading Radio to 1.47.30.10 and then to 1.56.70.11, problem came true
By PIE, it goes normally, just always as PC modem always freeze. I had to did soft reset to get my system back.
Hope for enlighment...
Thank You
Adding info, it's happen both on 2G and 3G network, i'm suspecting fault on radio ROM, but why it's normal when using PPC itself, but not with PC (as modem)
Yesterday i fall back to my default WM6 shipped ROM, but problem still exist. I used both shipped ROM with radio 1.47.0.0.1 and the latest 1.47.30.10.
Don't know why, could it be my hardware? Or my laptop?
Oh, i forgot to asked, whenever we use Internet Sharing, do we had to uncheck "allow USB" check box on activesync? I want to know wether i do all the procedure right?
Please help
Hi...with usb Internet Sharing you do uncheck "allow USB" check box on activesync. I use internet sharing all the time, but never had a freeze...

Thanks Galaxys, Yes lately i do uncheck allow USB checkbox. I use pure shipped ROM (radio 1.47.0.10), but it still freezing some minutes ahead, after opening several pages.
I'm wonderring is all these radio ROM 1.47.30.10 and 1.56.70.11 are suitable be used on Indonesian? Here in Indonesia using standard GSM band (900, 1800) and WCDMA/3G band (2100).
Oh No, problem got worse
Now whenever i try to connecting via Internet Sharing, it always failed, it used to be the LED lit orange, now the LED was just blinking (means it's disconnected from PC) and on Internet sharing windows, it said check USB connection...arrrrrghhhh
When i click disconnect, then all comes normally, Hermes well synchronized.
I just hope it was an USB cable problem, not my beloved Hermes
Any clue for my problems?
Thanks for Your attentions
sounds like a cable...so try another cable to find out your issue. regards
