I am really puzzled by this one. I have been using the Cooked Official Hermes Mobile 6 for Cingular / ATT rom for a few months now with no problem. Just last night I lost my Outlook Inbox in my list of mailboxes. After looking a little deeper it appears that I cannot use direct push anymore. I have tried clearing memory and reloading the ROM onto the phone.
The very first time the phone comes up after running the AT&T cab packages, I set up the server sync options. While it is doing its initial sync I can quickly go into the Schedule setting ans it is set for As Items Arrive.
Here is the problem...
As soon as it finishes the first sync, grabs contacts, mail, calendar, and tasks. I go back into Schedule and it is defaulted to Manual, and the option for as items arrive is no longer there. If I go into comm manager there is an x through the Direct Push icon, I can enable it, close comm manager, attempt to sync again, go back to comm manager and it has an x through it again????
This one is killing me here. I know the server is set right as we have 10 total phones at my company that are all setup for direct push, they are working correctly, just not mine. Granted my phone is the only one running mobile 6. But it has worked flawlessly for months, even before the "official" rom. I have tried Schaps latest version but the problem seemed the same. Is there a problem with the phone outside of the rom image?? Something that needs to be reset? Please, I need some help with this! I don't want to switch back to my 3125, noooooooooooooooooo!!
Thanks in advance for your help!
Edit...
Still don't have it working but... Couple of things, Calendar, Tasks, and Contacts are working just fine. Subfolders in my Exchange mailbox are working ok. But i am still unable to select "As Items Arrive" or keep the Microsoft Direct Push button in Comm manager enabled. Again any thoughts would be very helpful. I am a network admin with direct control over my exchange server. Tonight I am going to fire up my 3125 and pop in my sim and I would imagine that things should work just fine. The part that boggles me is even with a fresh rom flash or with multiple roms the problem still exists?? I don't know if any of you out there are Exchange Admins too, but could it be something on the server side of things? Thanks again everyone for taking the time to read this!
direct push
a good test to eliminate phone vs. exchange would be in your web browser goto IP address of server + forward slash OMA (Outlook Mobile Access) i.e. www.domain.com/oma
this should open a login prompt, put your active directory credentials in there and click ok. If this works then your server is good...
An excellent troubleshooting step! Unfortunately I have tried that, and it did work correctly! I have reverted to my 3125 for the moment. All works well with that phone. 8-( Sooo, my exchange account is fine, my sim / AT&T account is working properly. I guess somehow the phone was corrupted?? Is it maybe worth reverting back to WM 5.0, and then bringing it back up to 6.0? Thanks for taking the time to help!!
I hope someone out there can help. I updated to dcd's titan ROM 3.3.4 and now I can't sync my contacts and calendar. I'm given the ability to sync everything but those two features (the only two I care about). I tried so much as reverting back to the old ROM, but still nothing. Now I don't know what to do. Can anyone help me out here?
***Nevermind. I just uninstalled/re-installed Windows Mobile Decive Center and it works now.***
Sorry if I have posted this in the incorrect area....
I have just installed Android 2.1 on my Hero and I am having a few problems with Facebook syncing.
Every single one of my Facebook contacts appears in People. So I select "View" and uncheck the Facebook tick box. Only my Gmail contacts now appear - great problem solved.
However when I go into "Messages" and select "People" all of my Facebook contacts still appear. Does anyone know how to get rid of these to only show Gmail contacts in Messages?
Thanks in advance.
sorry to be the arse that tells you this, and as you correctly mentioned, you posted this in the incorrect area, also would be helpful if you mentioned the ROM you are using etc
Really sorry. Im using Villain 6.2 but I think this is a general 2.1 issue rather than a specific ROM.
Thanks,
Dan.
Hi,
I was wondering if anyone could help me. I'm not able to sync my Twitter friends like I always have been. I just got the Amaze two days ago. I came back to T-Mobile after leaving Verizon where I had the TB. I was wondering why every time I went to link my Contacts with their Twitter accounts, it kept saying no names. I Removed and Re-Added the Twitter for HTC Sense under the Sync Accounts on the Amaze thinking that would help but it doesn't. I literally just came across the reason. When in the Twitter HTC app, under the Settings where I go to "Friend's List", it says I'm NOT FOLLOWING ANYONE and that NOBODY IS FOLLOWING ME! I refreshed it, logged out and back in but still seeing that.
I don't understand why it's saying that when I'm obviously logged into my account and I'm responding and reading Tweets from my followers and vice-versa. I've never come across this problem before on any of my devices. I'd greatly appreciate and help. THANK YOU VERY MUCH IN ADVANCE!
I recently solved a real pain of an email issue I was having, and wanted to pass along the experience. I had tried searching these forums for several days, but didn't quite find my problem, and didn't find the solution all in one place. With that in mind, I'm hoping this information helps someone, even if a bit of it may be covered in other threads (sorry if so).
I had upgraded recently to JB 4.1.1, and was having a lot of problems getting my corporate/exchange email account to work. The calendar and contacts would work sometimes, and the email never got past the "waiting for sync" screen. Anytime the calendar and contacts would work, they would break after a reboot of the phone.
I also found that sometimes exchange account would stick around after it stopped working, and other times it would disappear (from the Android settings > accounts list) completely. I had set the accounts up both through the stock email app, and through a third - party email app (Enhanced Email, a good app).
I tried deleting and recreating the accounts, with varying settings (port numbers, accepting all security certificates, etc.). Later on, I went to my company's online web access for Exchange, and deleted all the mobile connections so that it would create a new connection for my current phone and ROM. I recreated the account (for what seemed like the 50th time) after that. Still no good.
The thing that made the difference: I finally read a tip somewhere to force stop the (stock) email client, and clear its cache and data. After that, the email app needed to be set up again, but email synched for the first time since I installed this ROM, and my calendar and contacts work reliably. It's been several days and reboots, and no further problems have come up.
I hope this helps someone, and again, apologies if the information is duplicative. I couldn't find it all in one place, and was really beating my head against the wall trying to find a fix.

Hi there, I think im glad i found this thread although not sure it will help with my corporate mail problem. My problem exists only with contacts not syncing from my corporate exchange account. My mail and calendar is ok just no contacts sync.
You mention to force stop the stock email client, can you advise the steps and exact name of the process? Do you mean in manage apps - All - Email ? I cant seem to stop that process its all greyed out.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, due to my role i really need my exchange contacts to sync.
Cheers,
Hi guys,
My experience is different.
If you have problems to sync your email you need to clear all previous mobile connections from outlook (via outlook web access) and set up your account from zero on the device.
Quick question why do you use a third party email client? Do you have Samsung device? Got the same problem and had to move to a asop (CM10)
Samsung email client and exchange doesn't work well since the original Galaxy.

solution for me
For me what solved was a solution I found in another post here in the forum: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1774978&page=2
In summary:
"Settings --> Data Usage --> Menu --> and check Auto Sync Data
Try setting up Exchange account again and you'll see the prompt to activate a Device Administrator this time. "
