AS4 Problem

Hi,
[ first of all - Thanks BUZZZZ ]
I've installed wm2k5 on my qtec2020, it works just fine but..
i can't synchronize my pocket with PC (i've done everything as described on: http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=20505 )
I've got AS4, win XP/SP2. tried on 2 computers.
every time i'm getting an error like on atteched screenshot..
Please help..
UPDATE: i've just discovered that i can explore my device.. but i can't synchronize :-/
Try a other download of ActiveSync, Link
This is Active Sync 4.0 Build 4343
I've got the same you've posted
It doesn't help
UPDATE: I can explore even If i choose to synchronize only notes and files it works. Only problem is with synchronization with outlook 2003.
The problem seems to be with outlook 2003 not being the default email client. Go to Outlook under Help menu choose detect and repair. Reboot once it finished and try.
Shikra: If i click on "mailto" link - outlook 2003 opens, so i think that outlook is default e-mail clinet. Detect& repair was first thing which i've made.
on AS 3.8 everything was just fine..
Active Sync 4.0
Active Sync is working fine for me now.
1. Make sure MS Outlook not running before new install
2. Turn off Windows Firewall
3. Uninstall previous Versions of Active Sync
4. Reboot PC
5. Install AS V4.0
6. Reboot PC
7. Power on XDA
8. Connect XDA to PC.....should now work
Sh*t.. Still nothing. What's going on? I have to go work.. Without my contacts??
Maybe it's outlooks fault? It is in polish.. I'm going crazy
Took me 3 installs and uninstalls before I got rid of the same error you have.

Active Sync 4 with Office 2003 (win XP) 85010014 error

Hello
so I spent over 3 about 5hour evenings at computer with searching, reading, reinstalling and I dont know what else while trying to eliminate this 85010014 error. God bless my beatifull girlfriend sitting by me and cooking cofee, without her I would jump of my skin.
On wiki pages you can read that 85XXXX... error are comming mostly from bad version or corrupted mapi32.dll. Well I found about 3 different mapi32.dlls /windows/system32/; /program files/common files/..... etc.) in my computer with different file size but same version descriptor !!! I asked even my friends with different OS versions (W2000, WXP) and different Office version (2000,XP,2003). Everybody had the /windows/system32/mapi32.dll in version 1.0.2536.0 but everybody with different size. Note, that no one is using or ever was using alternative email client.
Finally I found out that deleting the one in /windows/system32/ directory does no harm to Outlook 2003 - interesting isnt it ? But without mapi32.dll in /windows/system32/ directory will the activesync 4 installation (build 4343) not work.
So I came back to original (maybe from OS installation comming) mapi32.dll with size 112128 bytes. But this is not the problem. Active sync 4 still produced same error.
Reflashing PPC does no progress, the problem is really on the desktop as the application says. ScanPST for outlook.pst file will not help too. "detect and repair" function of Outlook 2003 - same, no help. Even choosing to "reinstall in the same manner" from office installation CD will not help, even it takes nearly 30 minuts of hard disk tyrania. Note, that I always had the "full" install of MS Office. Of course I always first uninstall active sync, then reinstall office, then install active sync again.
BUT - as I found - "reinstalling MS OFffice" is not the same as unistalling and installing again ! this really helped to solve the problem.
So here is step by step what I did.
1. backup Outlook.pst file (if default - /documents and setting/<user>/local settings/application data/microsoft/outlook.pst)
2. complete uninstall of ActiveSync, even deleting the directory (/program files/microsoft active sync)
3. complete uninstall of MS Office 2003
4. delete profiles (control panel/inbox)
5. full install Office 2003
6. full install Active Sync 4
7. run outlook, create profile, set up email account
8. run activesync without PPC in cradle
9. delete all devices from activesync
10. run activesync on PPC
11. delete all devices on PPC activesync
12. put PPC in cradle
13. establish connection
14. synchronise
15. it works !!!
NOTE:
dont run activesync before opening MS Outlook. In my case it always corrupts Outlook profile with doubling the Outlook folders and because of that corrupting the syndronisation procedure.
good luck to you !
T.H.
While this method may work, I think you will find my method for fixing this to be A LOT easier.
It's two steps, and it requires NO un-installing/re-installing.

siGGy method
Sorry,
but "detect and repair" did not work. I even do not and never had another email client. Maybe you just did not read all of my post.
thanks for your answer
T.
I read all of it, maybe read my post a bit more throughly. See where it says, "Even if you don't it's possible the outlook install got corrupted from another application"
So maybe you didn't read all of my post too
I've fixed 7 machines using this method. Most of them (6) didn't have any other e-mail clients installed.
I did something similar to that insanity 15 step method the 1st time it happened to me 2 week ago. Then I found the "detect and repair" fixed it.
I wonder what was different on your machine.
lol, Windows admins. uninstall/re-install. I'm glad I don't work on this O/S for a living.
I hope yours stays fixed permanently, I wouldn't want you to repeat all those steps again! What a PIA.
I'm sure more people will end up finding these posts, hopefully people get their systems fixed.
I solved my ActiveSync problem with Error 85010014.
I also run Eudora and Incredimail Plugin for Outlook on both PCs, Work and Home. Both are on XP Pro SP2 and when I installed ActiveSync 4.1 on my work PC without issue, I decided to attack my Home PC Outlook installation to see if I could resolve the issue.
So, At home:
Putting Outlook in Offline mode did not solve the problem.
I uninstalled ActiveSync 4.0 and installed ActiveSync 4.1 - No difference.
I backed up Outlook via 3rd party program to grab account settings as well as my 2GB pst file then ran Help->Detect and Repair... - reboot, no difference.
I then ran Control Panel -> Add or remove Programs -> Office 2003 and chose to modify my installation by adding or removing components. I unchecked Outlook and updated it to remove Outlook from my Office 2003 suite. Then returned to this option and re-checked Outlook to add it back to my Office 2003 Suite, CD-Rom in hand but updating, it did not ask for the Office 2003 Install CD-Rom... - Rebooted and connected - Bingo NO 85010014 error!
Support code 85010014 when syncing
Success! Re-install outlook is the only option... for me anyway.
I tried repairing outlook, no difference. Tried new partnerships etc, hard reset my XDA Exec and resync, no difference. Renamed all the mapi32 files I could find and repaired outlook, no difference. Ran the scanpst util, even fixed a problem, still wouldn't sync. Created a completely new pst file and put just 1 email in it (yes it was set to be the default mail delivery folder etc), it wouldn't even sync that 1 item.
So, as per foxnolds post, uncheck outlook in the add/remove programs bit, then re-check it and reinstall outlook, success! Didn't even have to uninstall activesync 4.0 and didn't lose any of my email profiles/settings as it picked them up again after the re-install.
What a palarver.
I am running XP sp2, Office 2003 small business edition, active sync 4.0 and windows mobile 5.0 on an XDA Exec.

[Q] Optimus One: Unable to sync contacts with PC

Dear All,
I have an LG Optimus One. I have google mail and office's microsoft exchange mail. All my contacts on the phone automatically came due to exchange server.
I wanted to sync my phone with home PC so that any new contacts created at home / office are synced.
Problem: The Optimus One does not syn with home PC. (It automatically sync with Office PC via exchange server).
Solutions tried:
1) Tried using LG PC Suite that came with the phone to sync contacts with home PC. It does not syn even a single contact.
2) Tried the updated PC sync.
3) Tried the LG outlook sync.
4) Even tried syncsquare - it also did not sync a single contact.
I have attached the screenshot for your reference.
Please let me know how to sync the Optimus One's contacts with home PC. I have both windows and Gentoo Linux at home and hence can use any OS to sync.
Thanks a ton in advance.
Regards,
Enable wireless u will be able to sync after that.

Hi,
First of all go to settings->SD card and phone
storage->uncheck 'Mass storage only' option. Now connect
the phone to the PC via USB. A green android bot will
appear which will notify you that the USB is connected. Now
you have 2 options:
1)Select 'Turn on USB storage' on the phone. The green bot
will now turn orange.(Alternatively, you can open the
notification bar and press upon 'Select to copy files
to/from your computer') Now you can access your memory card
through your computer. To disconnect press 'Turn off USB
storage' on the phone
2)To connect via PC suite: When the green bot appears,
don't select 'turn on usb storage'. Just open PCsuite and
select 'connect phone'. Now you will be able to sunchronize
your phone with the PC and also be able to update your
phone.
I can't even sync anything Tried everything, so I went to using the device to backup itself and sync with the cloud.
Hi All,
I have tried everything. The device is not connected as 'mass storage' when connected by USB.
The device is found by PC Suite (See screen shot) but is does not sync any contact.
Please help. I have more than 1000 entries in my address book on the Droid (ie. I got it from my Exchange Server).
Regards,
same problem for me
The PCsuite sees phone, it starts sync but after one minute the message "No response from phone" appears... Any help?
Any solution for this problem? My LG PC Suite crashes when I try to sync anything. Stupid.

yeah, mine too. I'm using w7 32 bits and it keeps crashing when I try to sync. i gave up and sync via google contacts.
Is it a windows 7 specific problem?
I tried installing LG pc suite IV on 3 different PC's (all windows 7 64 bit), but I can't sync contacts. Also, superoneclick crashes when i try to root it. The details of the phone are:
Android Version: 2.2.1
LG software version: V10c
Kernel version: 2.6.32.9
Please let me know if anyone else has found a solution to this problem. Else I will have to find a PC running XP

[Q] How do I transfer contacts.spb back to my phone?

Hi,
I made a backup of my phone contacts using Kies. I saved the contacts.spb file to my PC but I am unable to load them back to my phone. I have tried these steps but no luck:
Method 1
1. connected the phone to PC
2. Opened Samsung Kies
3. Opened the contacts.spb file from PC
4. "Transfer to Device" option in Kies is disabled.
Method 2(without using Kies)
1. connected my phone to PC
2. browse the contacts.spb file in my PC
3. saved it in the main folder of my phone.
I didn't find anything by searching, maybe because I'm the only one who doesn't know how to reload the contacts back to my phone
Appreciate any help!
same here.. I dont have customl Rom , I lost my contacts while flashing , Can anyone tell me any way of restoring contacts as i have got contacts backup via kies.

Correct is reverse order .

does Kies see your phone ??
You can try copy file to external sd card and see if it can be found via contacts import .

ive got the same problem and looking at having to go back to stock just to get that .spb file and starting all over again,
Kies will see the phone but say
'cannont start service on device. please disconect then reconect the device.'
and with usb debugging turned on
'reconect the device in samsung (pc studio ) mode. current mode not suported by Kies.'
and if you put the contacts.spb on the memory card and try import into contacts you get
'scanning sd card failed (reason no vcard files found on sd card)'
any other options before i have to start flashing again?
You need to restore the contacts in KIES. You can't just transfer the spb file.
Personally I prefer to backup in VCF. Just go to the contacts app, then hit menu, import/export and export to the SD card. It gives you the VCF file which you can then import back through the contacts app. Much safer since VCF is an common standard format. You can even import the SGSII's VCF file into an iPhone4 and it works fine.
thx sleepy thats just what ive done

Transfer contacts Phone->SIM

Hi guys,
i have HTC Leo HD 2 with Energie ROM WM 6.5. I dropped my phone ot the floor and the screen got crashed. Now my sense doesn't work and all my phone contacts are in the phone. Please, help me with coppying all the contacts to the SIM card without using the touch screen ????
HELPPPP
vladi_90, install Activesync or WMDC to your PC. Install Microsoft outlook (part of the office) to your PC. Connect HD2 to USB. When sync software starts - sync your contacts with Outlook. No SIM is needed.Another thing - if you have a file manager on your PC with mobile plugin support (Total Commander for example), you can sync the phone, open it in file manager on PC an run executable of backing up contacts to SIM straight by clicking it on PC. (In case you have yhid backup program on your phone)
connect to PC & use MyMobiler (link in my signature) depends on default setting of usb connection though.

Your in-signature stuff is useful only to run phone's build-in SIM Manager from PC. Nothing else. Sync transport anyway must be installed (activesync or wmdc depending on OS)

Correct & that all you really need, but you could also install whatever contacts backup software you want so can be useful but not always the answer for all scenarios.
Other options are copying the pim.vol then using the wm6.5 emulator to load the pim & retrieve data.
Activesync & WMDC are all in HD2wiki

Heh Dude does not know that the easiest way to keep his contacts safe is to just have outlook.com email and you want him to use emulator and to deal with pim.vol?

Sorry, never read any wiki for HD2, Because I don't need it - I usually cooked my own roms for HD2 and never used someone's else. To know this - you may read my sig.

Problem is if he not by default set for sync by usb then it a bit of a problem using sync & outlook or any other option requiring sync.
In that scenario recovering the pim.vol via sd card extraction software is not a bad option .
Dudes, i can't transfer the contacts ......
I'm installing activesync 4.5 for XP, after that installing MyMobiler, connecting my HD2 with USB to the PC and on the desktop of the phone to default is the second option - Disk Transfer. At the screen of the PC i'am seeing this:
tinypic_____com/view.php?pic=29erkw0&s=8 (i don't have 10 posts and i can't add a link, please put instead of "____" "." )
Ideas ??
Is your device connected in storage mode !
Have a look in 'My Computer' at drives & if showing SD card of the HD2 then that the issue .
For above suggested ideas involving Activesync you need your HD2 to be set in Sync option for USB & obviously you can not change that as touch not working on the HD2 (as mentioned in post #7)
Your best bet is using the autorun feature from SD card to copy the PIM.VOL from the HD2 to the sd card then use emulator or request help for someone use emulator to load the pim.vol & export contacts.
See post below (#3) for general details/download.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=699101
You could also try removing SD card & connect via USB & see what access you have yo HD2 with likes of Total Commander from your PC.
