ActiveSync always becoming active

[Guest Loftup]

So the new Touch HD is good but I've noticed that ActiveSync seems to keep opening even when I'm not connecting to a PC.

It's usually there as an active app on task manager.

I close it and it stays closed for a bit, then next time I check task manager it's open again.

I suppose it doesn't really matter, but it is annoying not knowing why it is happening.

Any ideas ?

Many thanks,

[Guest dr_nick]

i can confirm this behaviour on mine too!

That'll be because in Active Sync you either have it set to "As Mail Arrives" or on a schedule. If you set to manual for both peek and off peek it should not start.

Many thanks FlangeArtist, but where do I find these settings ? When I open ActiveSync and then its menu, I can't find such settings under "options" and "schedule" is greyed out ie cannot select it.

Thanks Again,

Mine too!

The Diamond has the same 'Bug' so maybe its a WinMo 6 issue?

If the options are 'grayed out' then either you have not got a partnership set-up, or Active Sync is currently running. Try killing the Active-sync process first.

nope and nope. B) any more suggestions? (i am sure this is eating my memory/batetry)

[Guest Loftup]

I think I've found the solution on xda-developers.

So far it seems to be working for me.

[Guest FlangeArtist]

Someone XDA Developers wrote a tiny little utility called ActiveSync Killer that does exactly what it’s name says. It kills the ActiveSync application-process running in background when idle. It will apparently run on any Windows Mobile Professional device.

[Guest dimaru]

have you tried creating a fake server in active sync (put in any details you like) - you then can access the settings for updates, worked for me on my raphael and seems to have done the job on my HD too.

[Guest dr_nick]

don't think any of the above suggestions worked for me. but there is an option within the advanced settings of phonealarm that seems to have done the trick...

[Guest dr_nick]

I still have this problem.

i have installed elias activesync killer from earlier link. and i cannot find the setting i mentioned before (^)

anyone have any other ideas?

I use a combination of activesync killer and this hack: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread...ght=active+sync works great for me - one suggestion, leave the added server instead of deleting; it doesn't affect syncing at the appropriate times.
