Active$ync Error Code: 86000107 (Solution Needed!)

[Twiggerdingo]

I need your help on this. I have tried to sync both messchle's 6.1 roms (4.01 touch and 4.0 vanilla) at home and at work. Everytime I sync for the 3rd time (1 home, 2 work and 3 back home again) I get this same error (86000107) on activesync.

Googling for the sollution ive tried all options (new outlook profile, new partnerships, hard reset, etc.) which would work for a while (1st and 2nd time) but would again hick up at the third time i would sync.

Today i found this thread on the Hermes XDA forum:

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=368821

It appears to be the same problem and trouble in solving it. I am wondering if I am the only artemis user with this problem. Perhaps its a WM6.1 issue like was mentioned in their thread. Is Tom's rom any better so this last suggestion can be invalidated?

Will you help on this? Any info?

It would be a great pity if I would have to downgrade to 6.0...

BUMP!

75 views and not a single reply! If this problem is related tot WM6.1 i would have expected a little more response, since there are lots of new roms which come out lately.

Well, ive downgraded tot 6.0 anyway and all the syncproblems are solved again. So my best guess is that 6.1 is BUGGY if you want to sync your PPC on 2 pc's!

have been using the wm6.1 now for as long as it's out, bb5.0 from tom and the vanilla and touch versions from meschle now.

have used active sync on my home pc and on the laptop with out any problem.

USB to PC dashed out, cause dashed it always gave me probs active syncen a few time after eachother.

Twiggerdingo, face the same issue today at office. Fix it removing "Task", then "Contact" from the list of stuff to synchronize. Then, put them back and it works now like a charm.

Hope it helps.

Thank you for your fast replies on my post! Happy to see that you have everything working! I use tasks (approx 100) and appointments (700 total upcomming and last 2 weeks?) and depend a lot on it.

I saw the 'tasks' sollution as well and already tried it of course, but it made no difference. Sometimes it works, but then another day it did not. I do not have the time to solve it this way on a daily basis, and with me, the problem came back about 4 times a week (home and at work, on different occasions).

Hope the will be more info on this - and what causes it. Thanks again for your replies.

Although leaving TASK unchecked will temporary fix the problem, but that means you cannot sync TASK.

If you want to fix it properly, please follow these steps:
1: unplug usb cable if you are still connecting it with your WINDOWS MOBILE
2: Open MS Outlook (I m using 2007 as an example), go to File- > New -> Outlook Data File , and create a new PST file (what ever name/ location)
3: In outlook, Tools ->Account settings, then click Data Files tab, click the new PST file that you had just created, and set as default , then restart outlook
4: delete activesync partnership in both Windows Mobile and in your Desktop
5: Plug the WM to the USB port, and it should sync properly again.
6: restore the backup by using MS Outlook's Import and export function

It worked!

i have same problem, my solution:
first backup all data in phone (contacts, messages, calendar, ...)
check which category is problem (Contacts, Calendar, Task, ...) - in setting remove all checkboxes and let synchronize, then add one category and synchronize go on until you get error
uncheck problem category, delete all data in PC in problem category and let synchronize again then add category back - should be ok

Ive tried this as well and yes it worked (for a while). 2 syncs later the same thing reoccured. Strange thing is that pre 6.1 roms give me no problems whatsoever.

Just joining this thread.. yes it happens to me too...
and reoccurs...

I wondered:
Is PIM backup/restore the culprit?
I have a main Pc and a laptop which share info.

Any similarities?

Have you tried this?

Open registry (using something like task manager). Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\Version and change from ".1.0.0" to ".4.0.2"

Let me know if that works!
