For me, version 2.1.2.31 BES (BB Enterprise Server ) works excellent. Email and Calendar. Address book is corporate and I can do lookups, but contacts I sync only with my home PC. Never used with BIS ( BB Internet Service ).

I think only one BES or BIS. I also have pocket outlook pulling my personal mail with POP from Yahoo and Gmail every 10 mins.

BIS vs. BES

hi guys. i'm no expert but I am using the blackberry internet service which supports gmail, yahoo, imap, and pop mail servers. I think there are 2 flavors of bbconnect, the enterprise version and the internet service. I work for a small business so i'm out a lot selling but keep in touch with the office mail using blackberry and the business imap server. been using it for over a year and so far so good. not sure if you can run bis and bes over the same bbconnect client though.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] titus666:
There are some big security implications for using Exchange push email vs BB.. so its not quite as simple as people fearing change if they already have BB established.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] lpsi2000:
@custel,

I am fortunate to have BB, Good, and Exchange and I must tell you now with a Pocket PC (PPC) there is nothing like Exchange 2007. BBConnect is limited on the features you can have with PPC, however it is great if you have a BlackBerry device. Good Technology takes over you PPC and it is very heavy on the resource side. However, you are looking for a single interface for various devices and don't care about any thing else on the device, then Good is excellent. With Exchange 2007, well you already have all of the tools you will need and there is no need for any additional client on the PPC. Overall if you are only concern with the e-mail part and nothing else, then they will all do the job and you ust have to pick one. In my case I prefer the Exhange push because I don't have to be bother with third party software.

I'm running BBconnect 4.0.0.67 with a BES service. BBC4 contains further security settings and services; giving me email, calendar, tasks, contacts note syncing and a blackberry browser.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] titus666:
whats the rom OS version (5.x.xxx), AKU and system version (found in the BBC about tab)?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] ZaJules:
I think we have similar requirements, this is how I set mine up for very little outlay

I also have my own business and this is the setup I am using and it works very well for me.

I Have a VPOP3 mail server (www.pscs.co.uk)

And each user has a mail2web account (the free one)

In Vpop3 I have it set so that each user's assistant is set to their mail2web account (this automatically forwards all mail to the mail2web account as well as leaving it in the users mailbox for when he downloads mail to his outlook on his pc. The only negatives is that when I send mail from my Hermes it shows my mail2web account but I use a signature on my device that informs the recipient that the mail was sent from my mobile and that they should please reply to the following account etc.

This solution works really well for me.

My Wife is on a corporate Blackberry server with a proper blackberry device and when I send a test mail to mine and her device mine gets the email withing 30 seconds where hers sometimes takes up to 15mins.

Edit: Hmmm I've tried that combination before and my BB 4 client is generating the same BB system version but I'm getting illegal pin. I wonder if RIM is checking device type as well as I'm on a Wizard...
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] radreck:
Does BBConnect enable you to send and receive PIN messages? That's the one thing Exchange push lacks. It's a nice thing to fall back on should there be anything wrong with either the Exchange or BES servers.

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] moisha:
On BES that will be a problem, as the connection is established with blackbery.net ( private, NAT'ed ). And it gets groped when any other edge/3g connection is requested.

I have multiple accounts w/ Exchange. I have a different mailbox for each one and they all sync at the same time.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] moisha:
Would you mind sharing what those keys are ?

Don't tell me we can .... no that'd be too good to be true :eek:

TIA
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] c0rnholio:
Well, these keys seem to have direct influence on the bb connection. I've seen these keys first in the BBC 2.1.2.31 binary (or was it 2.1.2.16...dunno), but they weren't used. Now I'm using 2.1.2.54 on my athena and they are in use. If I change the devicetype value and try to reregister my client my connection is dropped. If I change it back to the original value and reregister everthing is running fine again. These keys are also used in the new 4.0 version of bbc.

Some facts about the new bbc 4.0 client:

- Even if you change your OS version to 5.1.195 and your AKU to a correct setting, bbc refuses to work on devices that are not Hermes (or Dash for the 4.0.0.76 Smartphone version)

- OS Version 5.1.461 with AKU 3.3.0 should also work because vodafone also released the bbc 4.0.0.67 for the Hermes (link to vf germany: http://www.vodafone.de/hilfe-support/technischer-support/97014_110496.html )

- They changed the logging function. It seems that plaintextlogfiles are no longer supported. The current logging is in binary format.

So my assumption is that they enhanced their checks for a allowed devicetype, and so I am looking for all info I can get.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] ixian:
How? With Exchange and WM you can only have one Outlook/Exchange account set up. How are you syncing multiple accounts on one device?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] ixian:
Unless something has changed and DigitalFX is correct - and at least according to this MSDN dev blog, he isn't - BES isn't going to help you here, at least as far as being able to have 5 separate Exchange-based push accounts syncing with the same mobile device.

No offense but this is vaguely worded FUD. What "big security implications"? With Exchange 2003, maybe. 2007 however caught up in a lot of areas - stronger encryption, remote policy enforcement (passwords, etc), remote device wipe, etc. I'm my companies Exchange server admin and the additional mobile features in 2007 were among the top reasons I migrated over to it.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] titus666:
What Corn is saying is consistent with my experience with testing BBC 4 as well. The BBC 4 client is definitely requiring more than OS version/AKU change. I've a matching BB System version with a confirmed Hermes user (Black 3.0.1) and my device definitely get blocked by RIM with "Illegal handheld pin". Everything is fine again when I go back to 2.x.

Corn - Happy to experiment on my Wizard when you have more to go on...

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] moisha:
I asked this question in another thread some time ago, but would like to hear more opinions here. I am kinda happy with 2.x - all I care is mail ( Lotus Notes ) and work related calendar. One minor "but" is I'd love to be able to sync the handheld with both home and work, without propagating my personal appointments and contacts to the company I work for. But I guess that would be too much to ask from active sync, which very often can't even sync the files. Anyway ... Could BBC 4.X happy users explain me which useful options on their opinion am I missing not running 4.X, besides the BB browser ( what's the advantage if it anyway ? ), enterprise activation and management, forced security policies ( have to enter the password every hour ? ) ?

Please excuse me if I am hijacking the thread.

Good job, c0rnholio. Thanks a lot for tracking that dll thingie in the past ! Glad to see you hard at work again :)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] titus666:
You are right with Exchange 2007 MS is catching up, IT policy enforcement is a big one on the device side, although in a place like where I work, it takes a long time before we can roll out a new mail platform as we have quite a large number of exchange servers.

On the server side, things are a little different. Running BES, from a firewall/trust perspective, means you open up to RIM on a single port, that you can put behind a proxy as well as a firewall. In contrast, with Exchange, your Exchange server (well IIS thats serving it) needs to be opened up to all devices over the wireless network.

What I meant by "big security implications" is that to change from one platform to another, it will mean a re-assessment of the security & risk profile of both the server side, and the client side.

In your original mail, you presented the two solutions with zero difference which is obviously not the whole picture, and at the end of the day, I believe there are security implications that need to be reviewed. This does not mean one might not want to deploy an Exchange based solutions, but does not mean the security implications does not exist, especially for a shop that already has BB.

A Small Business ???

Hi Guys,

It's actually very interesting to hear about Exchange 2007 from the 'trenches' so to speak and how you guys seem to be taking to it.

I'm no expert on Exchange (and the pros and cons of the difference in security), but do run an SBS 2003 SP2 setup at work (only 10 of us, and only me using the push Exchange option at the moment).

Due to our small size, a number of us do have to 'double' up on the jobs we do and hence have multiple email address. My solution has been to get all my different email accounts forwarded to just one and then, using rules I have set up in Outlook, have them split into different subfolders in my Indox.

By changing the settings of my one and only exchange account on my Hermes, I can receive my push email from my Inbox sub folders as well.

'Remote Wipe' and some group policies can also be applied with Exchange 2003, but not HTML. (Yes, I have remote wiped my mobile from it's internal IE explorer ;))

(Thought I'd throw this into the mix as CUSTEL mentioned he was setting up his own company and it maybe small to start with.)

Titus,

they Keys are all DWORS with the values that have already been posted. Unfortunately they are the same on my Ameo and Hermes. They definately do affect the connection but seem not to be what we are looking for. I have to give up at the moment as I think that a loader would be needed wich calls BB and then intercepts the version and deviceinfo calls, and I currently don't have the time to get that deep into it.

Cheers

guys,

I have been using WM6 with BBCv4 for sometime now.. and it works great.. but was wondering how exactly you configure your WM6 device to receive direct push mail, without having to resort to 3rd party BBC software... at work we have a BES server with an Exchange Server 2003 SP2, so this would be viable..

checked out the following, but not too sure :

http://www.microsoft.com/technet/solutionaccelerators/mobile/deploy/msfp_7.mspx

..am i missing something simple?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] tonyb15re:
I'm using v4 client and BB Activesync, one thing I have noticed is that on WM6 you cannot sync folders e.g. seperate sub folders under the inbox, for some reason this functionallity doesnt work, the same version of the client on WM5 works fine and syncs folder.

Dont get me wrong BB sends and receives mail ok, Calendar Syncs well and the new Contact Sync works ok apart from not downloading pictures from the client app, I assume that the Contact photos are not stored within Exchange, when a standard contact sync is done through MS Activesync they come across but of course when you do an over the air BB Sync they dont. Not that thats important for BB
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] beginner:
yes, the exchange server administrator has to permit it. In my company there is a similar infraestructure to yours and the administrator prefer still using bb.

There is a simple option for enabling on your side pushmail by exchange, without bb. If your mobile phone provider is capable to send you sms when you receive a mail in your mail account. Check this:

http://www-rocq.inria.fr/who/Arnaud.Porterie/projects/PushMail/

it works perfect to me. I said to exchange to send a communication to a mail account at vodafone that I have. Later I configured the mail account to send me a sms, and it works great.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] palmop:
I found that the folders sync fine actually, but I had to switch to that folder manually to see new messages in there.

Also via the BB Connect Desktop, you can select which folders to sync.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] titus666:
A little bit more side info.. When I went back to BB 2.1.2.31 last time, my connection did not work until I deleted the keys that I added in the registry, so the keys definitely affects 2.x client even as old as the one I am using. I added the wrong key type last time though when I was testing with 4.x, so I'll try it again this weekend if I get a chance...

Hi Guys,

New to HTC Phones, fairly simple question.

Done a bit of Googling, can't find definitive answer.

Is there any way to disable the power saver mode coming on at 15% on the M9 ?

I've turned it off, and it just comes on at 15% there doesn't seem to be any option to stop this automatically happening.

Again you can turn it off and it seems to stay off, but crossing the 15% threshold triggers it again.

Any ideas ?

[Note Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marcolorenzo:
Hey guys, I just got a Note Edge (loving it btw) and was wondering if there are any lock screen replacements with decent notification features (like Snaplock) that also allows unlocking by fingerprint? I quite like the look of the normal TouchWiz lock screen so something like the DashClock Widget would be perfect since it adds notifications by way of widgets instead of a whole lock screen replacement but I just found out that TouchWiz doesn't allow widgets on the lock screen apart from the default digital clock. Can someone offer some suggestions? Either a lock screen replacement that allows fingerprint scanning or some way to allow widgets on the lock screen after I root it. Thanks a lot!

[Note Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bskarpa:
It's already built into the phone and works great for me. I also like how when using PayPal you can swipe your fingerprint to pay. Can't wait till you can lock different apps with the fingerprint, this would be super useful.
[Note Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marcolorenzo:
Sorry, maybe I didn't explain properly. I've already registered 3 fingerprints and they work quite well in the lock screen (a lot better than what I had read from some accounts prior to purchasing the phone). What I would like is to have notifications on my lock screen like what you'd get on an iPhone or through lock screen replacements like Snaplock or Next Lock Screen. The problem is, when I turn on one of these lock screen replacements in the settings, I get two lock screens. First the replacement lock screen appears with all the notifications and then after unlocking that through either swiping/pattern/pin (they don't support fingerprints), I get the system lock screen which allows me to use my fingerprint. Of course, I can just turn off the system lock screen but like I said, the other lock screen replacements like Snaplock or Next don't support fingerprints.

[Note Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] F1R3DUP:
With the upgrade to Lollipop, you can now get notifications to show on the lock screen (Settings > Device > Sound and Notifications). Unfortunately, Samsung doesn't allow widgets to be used on the secure (fingerprint, PIN, pass, etc.) lock screens, so I am unable to put a weather widget on my lock screen. And since I have a corporate Exchange email account set up on my phone i can't opt-out of using a secure lock screen.

Like all of the other unfortunate AT&T customers that purchased a Note Edge, I got screwed over without the ability to root my device. I would really like to set my phone up the way I want it, as it should be.

And while i'm *****ing, why can't Samsung set up one of their Edge panels (briefing maybe?) to wake the edge screen and display notifications for SMS messages? Am I missing something, or wouldn't that be an ideal function to have with the edge screen? It's nice that they will allow sms notifications on the main lock screen now via lollipop, but why not put them on the edge screen where they should be on a device such as this?

If i'm missing something and there are ways to resolve my two complains please feel free to fill me in.

[Note Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marcolorenzo:
Thanks for that. I'm still trying to get my phone to update to Lollipop so maybe that will solve everything. I have a factory unlocked phone bought in Australia so from what I read, the update should've rolled out ages ago but it never seems to see it. Anyways, I'm downloading the update manually now via sammobile so let's see!

Totally agree with you. Even if we don't get whole text messages scrolled across the Edge screen, at least light up a few pixels there to show us there that there are notifications waiting. I have a cover that doesn't allow me to see the notification light next to the logo but has a slit cut out for the Edge so that would be perfect.

I really don't know what to do, I've read a few topics here and there and some of them suggested I should flash with both the md5 and the pit file. I'm not sure if I should do this because I've also read that I could hard-brick my phone...

Anyway, I would really appreciate if anyone could tell me what to do now and if there's a way to return to 4.4.2 or, ultimately, to update to 5.0.
