VERY weird problem

---

Hi all

I have a (see subject LOL) since a day or 2.
I was playing a game (bejeweled) on my machine when suddenly the game starting to be slow (it happens sometime if I don't reset my device for a few days and then everything is fine after a soft reset, so I decided to soft reset my device.
After that, it restarted and all then stayed on the windows logo (the one just before windows come up).
I waited and waited and waited, nothing. So I decided to hard reset my baby (it's no problem to me since I had not installed any special progs).
Set up OK, install of carrier options OK, set up of M$ exchange OK but THEN, as I was trying to sync my calendar with my exchange server, it stays hanging at "Synchronizing" (ONLY at the calendar section) and can stay like this forever, and when I soft reset, it hangs again on the windows logo. (for the record, if I ONLY sync my contacts, everything is fine).
I tried everything, by that I mean different RADIO, different versions of WM6 (all of them actually. NOTHING helps.
I KNOW for a fact that it goes wrong at the sync of my calender cause I took the problem from zero (that is hard reset, ISP settings and then sync) so I'm sure of where the problem occurs.
I also check the exchange server to make sure my calendar wasn't "too" full, that's not the case.
The only thing I have NOT tried yet is if it goes OK on WM5.
I NEVER had that problem before, just since 2 or 3 days.
Anyone any Idea??

Thnx

This may have absolutely nothing to do with your problem but - a long time ago I read some posts where folks had problems syncing when items in the calendar had notes attached at the pc end - for some reason these notes became corrupted and huge in size when the attempt was made to sync with device. As I say probably not your problem if you do not attach notes to calendar entries.

thnx mikechannon, but indeed I do not have any notes in my calendar, never had AND I do not sync with my PC, only with exchange.Thnx for the tip anyway.
BTW, I just put another ROM on it now (RUU_HER_CINGULAR_2.06.502.3_1.34.00.10_SPL1.04.ex e) witch is a WM5 ROM and I have exactly the same problem. After a sync with the exchange server I'm back on the Windows Mobile Splash screen and it's stays there, so it's NOT a WM version related problem.

I have the same problem, which started today. My XDA Exec seemed to be frozen, so I soft reset, now it's stuck on the Windows Mobile splash screen.

I've got data I need to get from the device, so don't want to hard reset (sounds like that wouldn't help anyway).

Can't think what has caused it.
- I upgraded to Radio 1.15 the other day, but it has been working fine.
- I changed my connection to GSM only, 2 days ago to try and stop the Disconnect problems on 3G/GSM, but that has been working OK.

I've tried removing the battery & SIM but no joy.

I'm running Helmi 1.1, and have been for months.

Can anyone help?

Hi all

In the meand time I had my baby sent back to HTC (BTW, they did NOT look for the SuoerCID what so ever, My guarenty is still intact ;)), they looked at it and sent it back to me. I don't know what they've done but the problem is still here.
I tried (just to be shure) to sync with my desktop and THAT works fine so I would think it's a server related thing.
However, I deleted a lot of things on the server but the problem remain so now I don't sync with the server.
Today I will install the new Black V2.0 and try it again.
I'll let u guys know.

I had problems getting my tytn to sync with my SBS running exchange 2003 SP2. It was due to SP2 adding HTTP compression which screwed syncing to some mobile devices. Sometimes i would get error 0x8503001A and sometimes it would just lock up! Check out this link for a fix, well, it fixed my problems anyway

May also be worth having a look at http://www.pocketpcfaq.com/faqs/acti...nge_errors.php for more error code info. I know you dont get an arror code, but something may shed some light for you!

@JamesAub

Thnx m8 for ur reply but I'm using the free mail2web exchange server witch use do be fine until (Iguess) too many people started to use it LOL. Then it stopped working.
I just install Black 2.0 and tried right away, the prob is still here so I'm 99,99% sure that the prob is on the server side.
I'll try to make a new account to see what happens.

I have a support message from mail2web, that there server experienced some delay problems. I changed my mail2web exchange to my work exchange server and all problems dissapeared.

Today I checked the mail2web box again and it seems to be working for now.

Good luck!

Well just to say how gooooooood the Black V2.0 is, I'm able now to reset my device when the exchange server hangs and it does NOT stay on the windows splash anymore. The problem is however still not resolved. I sync slowly the one after the other and I'm able to sync my contacts fully and see them. When it gets to my calender, it is syncked BUT when I want to open my calendar I just get the wheel forever. At least I konw now I can test without having to hard reset.
BLACK EDITION V2.0 ROCKS! THE BEST. you can pass the word ;)
