Strange thing with ActiveSync, it has created a second mobile device. When I originally installed activesync on my pc and connected the phone the mobile device was named SCH-i760. Now there is a second one which was created with 6.1 and it is called WM_xxxxxxx1 The xxxx part is my name. The second on is now what activesync recognizes.
[quote=dangerous;744259]I changed the time, did a Send and receive with my exchange server. It changed back to mountain.
I am now changing to AZ and rebooting to see if this fixes that bug. Nope. when it came back up it was in mountain timezone.
Both phones on reboot go to Mountain time zone. this isn't good.

yes...we actually have found the fix for this...mine and iprob8's were doing the same...you have to go into settings...phone....scroll down to time...change setting...and then check the manual circle in timezone setting..after that its all good!
edit: guess you found the answer while i was posting

anytime you do a hard reset activesync creates what it calls a new partnership. This is what you are seeing...It would benefit you to delete the old partnership!

Does anyone have a 8 GB card and WM 6.1 to verify this really works?
rynoondew tried the 8g card but had some problems.
Anyone else try 8 GB cards?
I did some more fiddling with it the other night....It balloon prompted me this time when I inserted the card to view all pictures on the card. Which shows me it is recognizing it. I can view and edit files on the card, I can play music off of it, I can even save data to it....The only thing that I found is WMP will not recognize the storage card from the library screen...it acts like its not there!

It would be nice to have a separate thread with 6 & 8gb card results. I currently have a 4gb card that I used the SDHC hack under 6.0 to get working, but it's full now. I would sure like to hear about someone having success with an 8gb card.
Are you saying that you can't activate Voice Command by holding down the action button on your headset? Did it work for you in 6.0? I ask because I have an 855. I can initiate VC in 6.0 by holding the main button just fine - would hate to lose that.
Yes, that's what I'm saying. I waited until WM 6.1 to purchase the 855 so I have no experience with the it using WM 6.0. Prior to that, I had the old Moto 550 (or 505, I forget the model number). So far, with the "only during free time" box unchecked, no announcements come through the bluetooth or the wired headset. Very strange.
I've also just purchased a Plantronics 222 Mono headset and it doesn't get announcements, but I can press the headset button to initiate VC.
Hmm, worked for me under 6.0. I just upgraded to 6.1, so I will check this in the morning to confirm stanglifemike's finding. I wonder if you have a bad headset. Will the button answer and end calls (instead of using the slider)?
I can see the network, try to connect, and it eventually tells me that i entered the wrong security key.....however...i get the same error even when i disable all encryption on the network....
should i try to upgrade again?

MT, my router is set to talk to only certain MACs -- does yours do this?
From some other posts i have read here, people are saying their MAC has changed after the update to 6.1. Sounds strange, i know, but that's what some have said...
Turning the device off while the camera program was running used to render it comatose until I pulled the battery and restarted it. Now when I turn it off and back on it wakes up right where it was, with the camera app still open! This makes me very happy as I had to restart the device a lot when I first started using it.
Also, I can confirm that my wifi MAC address did indeed change with the update. I had to change the setting on my router to re-allow it. Very strange.
Nope...i dont have mac filtering turned on...even hard reset the router. Still cannot connect to any networks....
wrong password....even when its wide open.

Curious....what wireless A/P are you trying to connect to? After upgrading to 6.1 I can't connect to my wifi at home, which is a Linksys. However I have no problem connecting to my wifi at work, which is a Proxim.
Bug Fixed - OWA accepted appointments now showing up in Calendar
The ce 5.2.979 build 17233.0.0.0 had a bug with OWA (outlook web access/webmail of exchange).
When my users accepted appointments from OWA they would not show up in their calendar.
If the users accepted the calendar appointment via outlook worked ok, accepted via the phone it worked ok, but accepting it via OWA moved it out of the inbox and onto the calendar on OWA but not on the phone. I have a number of users that are off site in buildings with limited verizon signal so this was a big deal.
at least for WM 6.0.
avandelay, afaik, no BT headset receives the announcement of the name of the caller. However, it should read the text message.
I am talking about 6.0 -- still waiting to hear how it is working in 6.1
That's correct, I did get announcements through the speaker under 6.0 (even though all announcements were set to go through BT only). With 6.1, I get no announcements of any kind. I don't understand why.
Turning the device off while the camera program was running used to render it comatose until I pulled the battery and restarted it. Now when I turn it off and back on it wakes up right where it was, with the camera app still open! This makes me very happy as I had to restart the device a lot when I first started using it.

HAHA! That's great news. When I first got the thing it kept locking up on me and I thought it was a lemon until I figured out the camera thing. Good to see it was fixed!
