After "re-installing" my laptop I launched ActiveSync the first time and telled him to synchronize with my Touch HD. But AS said: There allready exists a parthernsip on the mobile device - first go and delete it.

Ok... I started AS on my phone, opened the options dialogue and I deleted the partnership with my laptop. That was a mistake - because with the parthnership every contact was deleted.

Wow, nice feature, Microsoft!

So... i know i have a half year old backup, but is it possible to undelete the current contacts? Perhaps there is a file on my phone, where they all are stored?

every hint is helpful, thanks a lot in advance!

//E

puuh.. ok - i found the file "pim.vol". Obviously it contains every contact but they are marked as "invisible" respectivly "deleted". So, how can i reveal them, make them visible?
[Touch HD General] montag09:
Yes, I saw that issue when trying to remove association between my PC and my HD. I used ActiveSync to import contacts from PC, but when it's done, why can't I mantain the contacts if I remove the association? Can't understand.
[Touch HD General] Farsquidge:
Deleted as mis read the line of "re-installed" laptop.

Soz.
[Touch HD General] nickaat:
i guess it could be a good idea to move this thread to the general Q&A board, cause thats not really a blackstone related problem.
[Touch HD General] zoro25:
Also have the exact same issue,

used phone on my spare laptop and was asked to delete a setting,

Now I've lost about 220 contacts. - Any fixes?
[Touch HD General] PauloJ5:
I think there is no fix. Just dont do it again. Always have a backup somewhere. Now it is quite convenient to skip outlook altogether and active sync directly to gmail and gcalander.
[Touch HD General] nickaat:
perhaps there is a solution.

As I found out, the pim.vol is just a database called "EDB" that MS uses for mobile devices. Till now the file format is "closed" but there exists the so called "POOM" - an API to read informations from the EDB.

So... I guess there is someone out there who already coded a Interface to read the pim.vol.... and we have to find him...
[Touch HD General] harrispo:
This interests me because I tend to delete contacts quite often!
[Touch HD General] CorruptedSanity:
Just Run PPC PIM backup- it creates a backup of PIM on a daily basis. This way you can delete contacts,messages, appointments and so on as much as you like.

Hello,

I'm wondering if anyone know a good free SyncML program available?

Thanks

[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] tssi:
Hi catfishk,

Thanks for the reply. I'm looking for a client program for the Tytan which this program will not do.

Any one have any suggestion?
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] drnoir:
Try Funambol. It's open source and configurable... let me see... yes, here: https://www.forge.funambol.org/
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] tssi:
Thanks Drnoir,

I have look at this product. It is very nice but the only thing that I don't like is that it Sync all your phone contact, and schedule information to the Funambol server. I was looking for a client which will sync with my office instead.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] drnoir:
If you tell me what office service you're using, I might be able to help. Let me know what the specific platforms are and what you need to do to be more precise.

Also, bear in mind that it will also work with any service using SyncML services, not just Funambol.

That said, if it's MS Office you're trying to sync, there is also an Outlook Funambol plugin that will let you pull down the data from the Funambol server. Thus, the server is just the bridge to your data sync needs.

I know about the UC method, but is there something similar where i launch a batch or application, select few cabs then install, and also to be able to interact with installations that need user input?
[XPERIA X1 General] mcbyte_it:
In other words, something like UC but to be launched on demand with a program or a script, that loops on a list of cabs in a folder or text file and installs them, and to give the possibility to interact with those installs that require user input.

the question is similar to the ActiveSync Install/Remove apps on Windows that when you connect the X1 and select a series of apps to install, it copies them to the PDA and install one after the other...

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] SayKyo:
Hi everyone,

I am experiencing rather unpleasant situations with my HTC Touch Diamond, and I'd like to ask if this kind of behavior is occuring in general or what.

The device behaves itself nicely (e.g. GPS works, wifi works in max performance only but ok, photos can be taken etc.) , but the phone subsystem - receiving and making GSM calls (3G is turned off to save battery all the time for me) is rather buggy. A day doesn't pass in which there is some kind of missbehavior with my device. The phone tempts to deny incoming calls on it's own even though I have TouchLockPro installed (so I'm positive I'm not touching the screen in my pocket or anything). Sometimes, when there's a incoming call, the phone just locks up - continues vibrating and ringing (the lights on the keys are on) even though the caller already hung up a long time ago, doesn't respond to touches and keystrokes and a reset is usually needed (which is annoying since it takes the phone several minutes to become usable again + I loose a call). To me, it seems that the drivers controlling the radio chip are bugged, but overall usage shows that if I disable the stock HTC dialer and use the windows one, it's a bit more stable (not satisfactory though, bug crashes and lockups still occur).

So, does anyone have an idea what's wrong? Is Windows mobile always so crappy that I can't rely on my 400€ phone? For the record, I'm running the stock 1.93.479.3 WWE ROM, radio version is 1.00.25.05 .

A rom reflash seems like a nice idea, but it's gonna be the last resort for me since I'd like to keep my warranty (but if it's the only way to make this phone behave so be it).

Did anybody have similar experiences with the call subsystem on a Diamond and did you manage to solve it? Please share your experiences. Thank you in advance.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] JonInAtl:
Haven't had any of the problems you describe.

You won't hurt your warranty though if you flash to an "official" HTC Rom. I'd suggest flashing to the current 2.03 builds from HTC.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] SayKyo:
Hm, good idea, but I suppose I'll have to contact HTC first, as for my serial number, the site gives me a "Not supported" message, supposedly since it's my phone is in Slovak language and I'm viewing the English page.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] SayKyo:
My phone is a Eastern European version (= crappy? :D) so no official 2.03 ROM for me.

What happenes if I get my hands on a WWE 2.03 ROM and install it? Since they can tell what version should be installed, I suppose I lose my warranty?
[XPERIA X1 General] adolfotregosa:
UPDATE - Since this problem does not happen on firmware r1a i started cooking and after many cooked roms/oem packages mixing i found the file that is the cause for the problems i described here!!!

The new r2a HTCSrcFlt3.dll on the windows folder has some kind of bug that makes the media panel with some mp3 completely useless.

This mp3 is the perfect example. Anyone with a r2a original rom will have problems playing it. The panel will lag and if you forward the music to about 40min it will stutter !!

http://rapidshare.com/files/202091733/01-armin_van_buuren-76-int.rar

Replacing the HTCSrcFlt3.dll with the original r1a version the media panel no longer lags !! :) Perfect.

I hope it helps someone here that noticed what i described here.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hi guys. I have with me a xperia with r2a firmware.

I have found that the media panel has some big problems. I have made 3 videos showing off that while playing a simple mp3 the interface becomes very very slow for about 1 min. If i pause the music it starts working ok. If i wait for about 1min the media panel starts working ok again.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NVkzyU4n89I

Of course smt is very wrong here with the cpu usage. almost 90% cpu ?????? you can see that on the second video.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UnySXqS_P8Q

The 3rd video shows of a bug that makes the app crash needing a reset :(

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FQ85U_mBO7k

I know that i can use 3rd app for listening to music but why can't just things work ok out of the box especially for a phone of this price ??

I'm i alone on this ???
[XPERIA X1 General] adolfotregosa:
All video are uploaded. Look at the second one for a better idea of what's happening.
[XPERIA X1 General] adolfotregosa:
i forgot to say that the crash happen mostly with big/long mp3 tracks

Can someone please test if the same happens ??

thank you all
[XPERIA X1 General] adolfotregosa:
just to say that i've email SE with this problem and i'm awainting response.

In the mean time, nobody else took 5 min to test if you have the same problem ??

thank you
[XPERIA X1 General] Angelusz:
You posted 4x in a row, why not 1 post and 3 edits?

My media panel has no problem at all. Did you try the R1A media panel yet?

I'm thinking either you've got bad media file you're trying to play, or there's something not entirely right with your software. A hard reset is always a great way to start.
[XPERIA X1 General] adolfotregosa:
thank you for your reply but it's not a bad media file. hard reset , clean reset you name it !

I've tryed pocketplayer and i have no high cpu problem. I think it's sad for this kind of phone. Also the a2dp bug reported by other user is not comfortable.

For your own test, you have here one of the media files that gives me problems.

http://rapidshare.com/files/200061507/Anjunabeats_Worldwide_033_26.08.2007_with_Mike_Koglin.mp3

Please, someone, explain why is this mp3 so special to make the media panel very slow/crash.

Thank you all
[XPERIA X1 General] skycamefalling:
I could say "because it's 170MB and the music sucks" but that would not make things easier :D

I can't download your file due to a slow internet connection but I have 3 concert MP3 files on my phone, each has 200 - 300MB and I never had such problems with them. The player never crashed and never stopped. So it could really be the file itself (bad bitrate maybe?) or some software issue on you phone.

Sorry for cannot help you more.

[XPERIA X1 General] adolfotregosa:
guys, after reflashing the rom to r1a version the problem does not appear, the media panel no longer crashes/lags.

But here comes a very cool thing.

I've tested the r2a rom with the old media panel and the problem still exits so i've reflashed the r1a rom but installed at the end the r2a media panel, an it almost works perfectly (still crashes when trying to see some mp3 info)but FINALLY no more lags. So after all it's some file that was changed on the r2a rom that causes the problem.

I would appreciate some help trying to find what is the cause/file(s) that is causing the media panel to work very bad on the r2a rom !!

Any one ?? Thank you !!!
[Touch HD General] Wiggz:
Right guys...I don't know about you but I'm still having Video playback problems.

Frankly, Coreplayer is shocking. Yes it plays FLV which Album or WMP don't but the fact it has no h/ware acceleration on an HD player is a tad stupid.

This thread should be populated with people's own experiences as to what format, player, and encoding should be used to get the best results. I know there is already a thready about Super(c) converting, but again, this says to encode to FLV which you still have to risk in Coreplayer!

Anyone got any comments - I just want a decent player or a way of my HD vids playing half decent on the unit!

Cheers guys :D
[Touch HD General] nickaat:
in my humble opinion, this thread offers the best solution:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=467112

Use the encoder mentioned there, so you dont have to struggle around with eright super.

And then u can play the movie with HTCs built-in movie player. Ok, the player is everything but comfortable. But the TCPMP is pain-in-the-ass, too.

activesync is messed up in 21018, use 21015.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] FormerPalmOS:
I disagree. I have been using 21018 for 4 days now, heavy use, including ActiveSync over USB, ActiveSync over Bluetooth, and both with my local desktop as well as an Exchange Server over the air with push mail active. I can't say I've discovered anything broken with 21018.

That said, there was at least one version of 21018 SYS floating around that had a bad .NET load. If you want to try the SYS I'm cooking with, here is a link: http://www.blakemitchellweb.com/former/SYS21018.zip
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] dcd1182:
Activesync works but the notification to restart the process does not. I have to manually reconnect it anytime the process is killed. My 21018 source is legit, and I use the same .net package with all SYS versions. it seems to be a quirk of the build. The behavior is the same regardless of mxip_notify.vol, and the issue seems to be contained in the repllog.exe binary. I could replace the binary with an earlier build, but it's not my style.

I'll diff your source anyways though just out of curiosity. Thanks.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] dcd1182:
just FYI, the Shell rgu in your source has the typical chinese idiotic destruction. I wish those guys at xbeta.cn would figure out that modifying rgu in SYS is counterproductive.

I have repaired the rgu here.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] FormerPalmOS:
Thank you!
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] FormerPalmOS:
Do you have a CDMA or GSM device? Could be a difference in the ability of or implementation of simultaneous voice and data calls - which I believe GSM can do and CDMA cannot. I have a CDMA device - so it would have to restart any data connections after a voice call - so maybe there's something making that happen which is why I don't see the issue you see. For some reason maybe your data session is disconnecting during a voice call but ActiveSync doesn't know? Just reaching here.

Did you look at the ActiveSync log - anything strange there?
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] dcd1182:
I have a CDMA titan on Sprint.

Activesync works fine when the process is running. Without going off topic, some of the other things I do require me to kill processes, and AS gets killed pretty often. The problem I am seeing is that the process does not get restarted by the OS if it is killed. Normally, there should be a notification that runs the process upon certain events, ie plugging in a cable. The notification exists in the notifications database, mxip_notify.vol, but for some reason repllog.exe does not launch. As the process is not starting, the log isn't getting anything.

I do not setup my data connection to be persistent. Because I sync with exchange using "as items arrive", AS keeps my data connection active. I would have probably not even noticed the issue (I never look at AS) if I had not noticed the lack of data arrows, meaning no data connection.

I can replace mxip_notify.vol with 21015 version and no change. If I use repllog.exe from 21015, all is well.

However I have seen several other differences in your 21018 source and my own. I may swap your whole SYS in later if I get time.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] FormerPalmOS:
Good info - thanks. I did notice that if I kill repllog.exe it doesn't re-start on its own unless I plug in my USB cable or otherwise activate a data connection. I also notice that in my notifications queue I have repllog entries for RS232 events, RNDISFN events and time change events - but nothing that would trigger it to restart, though this explains why it launches when I plug-in USB. If I switch the ActiveSync schedule from "As Items Arive" to "Every 5 minutes" a new notification gets pushed onto the queue, but the time is now, not 5 minutes from now or anything. HOwever after I manually sync, the top-of-the-queue notification changes to 5 minutes from now - meaning if repllog did die, it should re-start.

Note - if you close the ActiveSync GUI, it also shuts down repllog.exe. I guess a huge question is this - is there something broken in 21018 with the pushmail notification - i.e. when the phone receives the push notification over the paging channel (like an SMS) and repllog isn't running, will it restart repllog? I'll test this out.

So it would seem that I would have the same issue as you - except maybe my ActiveSync isn't shutting off on voice calls? I'll play with this a bit - something different to do in an otherwise boring day.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] FormerPalmOS:
OK - tried the following. Set ActiveSync schedule to "As items arrive". Then killed repllog.exe. Then sent myself an e-mail. Repllog.exe did restart on its own and the e-mail was received.
