I have tried multiple on-line solutions but so far I have found no solution to allow me to sync my Tytn-II between my home and work computer but I have no problem with 6.0 ROMS so I can only conclude that the issue lies with 6.1 ROMS and am surprised Microsoft are silent (as far as I can see) on getting a permanent solution for this error code.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] kaneelias:
I did post previously that i solved this issue well the error came back, on my home pc (B) i created a number of calendar entries, i went back to work pc (A) and got the error again, obviously this is a calendar issue for me, i found that if i make a calendar entry on PC A and then sync with PC B the entry will copy over and i can got back to PC A with no issue, but if i create the entry on PC B the issue will arise again, seriously considering going back to WM 6 now.

Frustrating is putting it mildly:mad: I thought I'd go for the official 6.1 Vodaphone ROM (downloaded direct from the Vodaphone site) in order to see if the issue was with 'cooked' roms but the problem of sync'ing between two PC's (both running XP) remains.

Am gonna hunt down a 6.0 ROM as I don't see this problem being solved in the near future.

*edit - got Sleuth's 6.0 ROM which served me extremely well a while back so am flashing that now*

Hi,

I had the same problem for a VERY long time, but i found that even with the error code popping up almost everything would sync on the PC with the error. I have never seen any data missing from any of the two PC's.

How to get past this:

I used HardSPL (the latest one 3.56) & the one of the newer ROMS (L26_KaiserDiamond_V9) and now I dont face problems like this anymore.

Do try it out.

aXe.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] pedmond:
Interesting! I'll check that tomorrow. It never occurred to me that it actually syncs despite the error.

info:

my athena (wm 6) sync perfectly with my pc and my laptop (both vista bussiness).

my trinity (wm 6.1) and my new diamond (wm 6.1) allways sync with the 86000107 error code on my PC but OK with my laptop.

it has to be the wm 6.1

i gave up... i am using now only the athena to sync the data between the pc and the laptop. using my diamond (trinity retired) to sync only with my laptop.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] pedmond:
Let's look in a different direction. Did anyone try to use PocketMirror (http://www.chapura.com/pmp_wm.php) ?

It may bypass the problem, but it's not free, nor cheap (50 USD). Still, it may be interesting to know if third party sync programs work...
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] AeronK:
Has anyone made any progress on this issue? Its getting very frustrating and I am affraid to use a cooked ROM in case I get the same error as some others have.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] ai6908:
For me the data sync works just fine. Apparently there is come problems with my contacts, so it does not sync either contacts or calendar properly!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Barneyabz:
Well I had the issue and resolved it by doing the following steps.

1) Identified and removed all duplicate entries in my calendar, contacts, tasks and notes folders (many programmes availabel to do this for you) - (Turns out I had many duplicate entries)

2) then set up a new pst and ost file on the pc and copied all entries across (only had to do this on the work pc which was syncing with microsoft exchange)

3) deleted old pst/ost file

Make sure when you sync with other pc you delete all old entries on the pc and copy over only the new clean ones from your phone.

All works fine now and syncs across both PCs

Good luck

Cheers

New HTC 6.1 ROM

Has anyone with this sync issue between 2 PCs tried the updated HTC 6.1 Rom?

Just wondered if it may fix this issue as well as whatever it was meant to fix. I have failed to sort mine out so have flashed the original HTC Wm 6 rom (original HTC 6.1 rom has the same issue for me) and all seems ok now, but I would like to have a 6.1 Rom installed.

O2 have responded to my query saying that they no longer have the WM 6 Rom available so I can't go back to that and they have raised my problem with their 'Devices team' to investigate the problem
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] pedmond:
This whole discussion is about WM6.1. WM6 doesn't have this problem. It's a Microsoft problem and as such it has nothing to do with HTC upgrades.

The problem still exists with the latest upgrade :(
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] pride429:
Agreed - tried many cooked 6.1 ROMS, the HTC one and the latest upgrade from Vodafone all of which refuse to sync between my work computer and my home computer - however 6.0 ROMS work fine without any fiddling around with pst files or selecting and de-selecting sync options. Am left to conclude that the problem lies with 6.1 ROMS and activesync - hence why I am currently running Sleuth's 6.0 ROM
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Matthes42:
I do agree with it. I tried several verasions of WM6.0 and never had this problem. It began with the first WM 6.1 version and all of it tested had this issue
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] joannaex:
Fix is confirmed.

1. Export your personal folders to a new PST.

2. Go to control panel -> inbox -> data file management, add the new pst, make it default.

3. Open Outlook once and close it

4. Go back to the data file management and remove the old pst from the list.

5. Delete parthnership and resync.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Matthes42:
Confirmed here as well.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] jackleung:
It's doesn't have to be 2 PC. Sync w/ 1 PC and Windows Live Mobile will have the same problem w/ the contacts.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] joannaex:
No it has nothing to do with two PCs but 2 anything. I was synching with exchange server.

Definately a WM6.1 error....

This is most definately a WM6.1 error, having suffered this on two separate devices.....the fix is to delete the pst (after backing up same) and then import the backup pst.........

Has worked for me. Wish some wally at MS would make a fix for this.....might only happen to large pst's though. BTW the error was only present in Contacts section for me.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] massa:
I found a way to fix 86000107 which will work! :-)

Hi there

I am too optimistic, maybe... but this worked for me and I think it will work for everyone.

Let's first give the disclaimer: my problem was ONLY with Contacts, not with anything else... (ie - if I unticked Contacts in one, then everything went smoothly; as soon as I ticked it in both: error 86000107)... so...

The problem is indeed with Windows 6.1. So I figured that the contacts already in the PPC (Diamond, in my case) would be accepted by the bloody device. So, in the PC where you have TICKED Contacts:

1) Unplug the Diamond

2) Create another Contacts folder in the PC with the FOLDER LIST tab on the left (I named it Stash) and MOVE all Contacts there

3) Sync the Diamond. The folder Contacts get repopulated

4) Unplug the Diamond

5) DELETE all Contacts in Contacts folder

6) Sync - the PPC's contacts will be erased (don't worry, you have them in Stash). If you have some contacts left in device - delete them manually.

7) Unplug

8) Copy all contacts from Stash to Contacts in PC

9) Sync again - all should be perfectly synced again.

Now, when you get to the second computer, BEFORE ticking the "Contacts" box, do the SAME process, ie:

1) Don't plug the Diamond YET.

2) Create another Contacts folder in the PC (eg Stash, again) and MOVE all contacts there: the Contacts folder becomes empty.

3) Now plug the Diamond (it will not sync contacts as it is unticked).

4) Once it's synchronized, TICK THE CONTACTS BOX in Options of ActiveSync.

5) It SHOULD sync properly.

Hope it works for you. It DID work for me.

Cheers,

Massa.-

Having upgraded my phone to the new Orange UK 6.1 ROM I had everything crossed that the activesync issue would not raise it's ugly head but how wrong was I - same error code as with all 6.1 ROMS.

I have tried everything suggested throughout this thread (today I rebuilt a new PST on both work and home computers and still no damn sync)

Am now concerned that my next upgrade (probably to the HTC Diamond Pro phone) will have the same sync issue as that's 6.1 as well. I have posted on the official Microsoft forum but I expect they are rather occupied with Vista (and all that entails) to bother about such an issue on 6.1 & activesync 4.5.

Am 100% convinced that the problem lies with 6.1 as I have (yet again) gone back to 6.0 and the problem disappears.

Hi, I want to downgrade from official HTC ROM 6.1 to Official HTC ROM 6.0, Do I need to flash a HardSPL before, or just flash the Official ROM. By the way I am having the 86000107 error, running XP and in one PC.

I've solved the problem... But with Chapura PocketMirror. I have Vista 64 on my PC, Vista 32 on my laptop and WM 6.1 official italian ROM. I think that I have spent well my money! ;)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] pedmond:
Thank you, that's good to know :) Does it work with Outlook 2007? It's not mentioned on their site...
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] AeronK:
when I had this problem and solved it by creating a new pst file, I synchronised over a shorter date range, going back only 1 month instead of 6. As it was something in my calendar appointments that was causing the issue I may have left the problem appointment out of the re-sync.

I haven't lost any of my previous appointments as they were all in Outlook anyway but not now on the Kaiser - only one month back and all future.

Just as a suggestion then, if you try and replace the pst file again, don't synchronise over a long date range and see if that helps you as it seems to have cured the problem for me.

All in all though, very annoying and clearly an issue with WM 6.1 - but why, no one seems to know - maybe its just less tollerant of problem items when synchronising.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Stateless:
Yes, it works! I have Outlook 2007 on my computers.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] pedmond:
Thanks again. I'll probably get Chapura - it's the first ray of light towards synchronizing 2 PC's with WM6.1. I tried all the other solutions - none worked for me.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Stateless:
You can download the trial version of Chapura PocketMirror and try if it works. I've done so and then I have purchased the full version.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] buckyg:
Thanks for all the helpful info everyone! I just started to get this error today and figured out that there was something with a new contact I recently entered on my Tilt.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] pedmond:
With me, Chapura first doubled, then tripled lots of entries in my calendar, plus giving all kind of birthdays it couldn't sync. Wasted about 3 hours to put it all back in order.

Syncing with only one PC seems better than none at all, so I'll just stick to this philosophy for the time being...

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] AeronK:
This is very fruntrating for all concerned. I am sorry that you have failed to get it to work - whilst mine is working at the moment I am half expectig it to fail again any time, but so far it has been fine since renewing the pst.

I wonder why, with so many suffering this problem it does not seem to be recognised offically as an issue - or at least they aren't saying that it is.

Hope you and everyone else manages to find a fix soon.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] pride429:
I can report exactly the same - found the key - changed the key etc etc and now I have the error again. So it's back to 6.0 (again) for me which is where I am staying until I hear that this has been sorted. Although I am now concerned that my next upgrade phone (which is due soon) will have 6.1 and won't work between the two computers either:mad:
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Barneyabz:
I have previously got rid of this problem, however after updating to a newer version of 6.1 and then syncing with my desktop again the problm reoccurred. Again I got rid of it by:

1) delete all entries on the main desktop (the one that syncs with Exchange) (left entries on ppc, did not delete them)

2) Delete .ost file

3) create a new .ost file

4) delete partnership (important or when you next sync it will delete all details on the ppc).

5) sync ppc, creating a new partnership, and all details from ppc are updated to desktop.

Looks like problem solved again.

Therefore for those that have said deleting and creating a new .PST file did not work for them, the problem may lie with the .OST file, try as above.

Good luck

i also investigating so much time to this issue on definitifly wm 6.1

the same database works great on 6.1.

on chance is to try the extra tool: "XTNDConnect PC" -> this works for me - also with 3 pc's.

1.) delete all partners from active sync

2.) active sync is now only used for connection - no data sncy i had selected

3.) sync with tool above - this works for me for hole the time.

;( now i tried thumbcal - and it seems to be that this makes the next problems ... it seems to be that the new apointments are serious on creating and something is wrong - so i had alot of extra fun now...

but as i wrote above - use for sync the tool: "XTNDConnect PC" -< that works for me.

summary:

wm 6.1 has definitv a bug on syncing !!!! (you can say what you want - i'm sure....)

Tried this and it deleted all on my diamond! I thought device was meant to overwrite pc?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] ai6908:
It worked!

Here is what I did, and it seemed to work for now!

Installed ODIR (free to download, google!) and removed duplicate items. There were some duplicates in my tasks and calendar. I also ran SCANPST to make sure there is no error. Then i synced information to a fresh copy of WM6.1 (PDACornerV25) with my work desktop. Came home, created a new pst file, and synced all the information to the new pst file.

Havent run into this error ever since. I did change some contact information today, and it seems to work just fine, without any errors. Previously, it just created a duplicate contact information whenever i changed a contact information. But it works perfectly now, no errors.

Next test is to install another WM6.1 ROM and see if the error pops back again.

I am keeping my fingers crossed! Hope this infor helps someone. Good luck people.

Hi people this is the way it worked for me,

I sync in 2 PC: my home PC [Sync calendar, contacts, task and notes] and Work PC [Notes and tasks]

On my home PC I went to TOOLS-OPTIONS and uncheck everything so my TILT stay empty. Then restart my device [I think this is optional] and sync everything back except for the TASKS...

If you don't care about the TASKS then this is a excellent way to get rid of the Error Code 86000107!!!

I may have fallen on a fix but I haven't exhaustively regression tested this yet.

Uninstall ActiveSync, download the latest version 4.5 from Microsoft Downloads and install it. Note that after the install two Hotfixes are installed one for Windows Media Player and the other for RNDIS framework and drivers. This second hotfix is not installed on XP until perhaps SP3 and I am not sure about Vista. But this seems to have cleanly fixed my problems so far...

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Keithj:
I have the same problem with my O2 Ignito (another name for HTC Touch Diamond). As long as I only connect to one PC, it will Sync fine. As soon as I connect to the other, I get the famous error 86000107. In my case, it's the Calendar that won't Sync. Contacts and Files are fine. I don't use the "Tasks" any more.

I know, now, to untick Calendar, let it synch the others, then turn Calendar back on. It takes about ten minutes to resync the Calendar, and it usually screws up a couple of dates. Its most recent game was to repeat one recurring item 15 times.

I conclude it's a WM6.1 problem, that it's fundamental in some way, so Microsoft can't find a fix. You can read about it in many places, with various complicated suggestions all the way to "hard reset and reinstall everything".

None of which helps. I've not found anyone with a firm and final fix for this - the only workaround is "turn off the offending function, resync, turn it back on, wait."

Maybe one day MS will sort it. Or WM6.2 won't have the bug. We'll see.
