Kaiser
Fix for the PIE slow (laggy) scrolling bug:
IE slow scroll fix.cab For KAISER /TILT / 8925 (CAB File - move to storage card or main memory. Navigate on it with File Explorer and tap it to install) Kaiser Tweaks
A tool with a host of different options to change settings in the registry, that would otherwise mean editing the registry manually. A very useful tool. Get it here:
Instructions -
Download the ZIP file and unzip it on your PC.
It will extract to Two files - an EXE and an XML. Copy both to your storage card (e.g using the "Explore" function on Active Sync.)
You may want to create a folder called Kaiser Tweak to hold the two files.
On your Kaiser/Tilt you can now just tap the EXE file to run it. (YES this is one of those EXE files that you run on the device not on the PC!) This Tool is being updated frequently with new features all the time so you can check out discussion here:

April 13 Repairing ActiveSync ConnectionGetting ActiveSync running again.
(Applies to situations where Active Sync fails to connect following the use of third party applications that clear the notifications queue but may include situations where AS does not connect through corrupt or missing notification files) Using applications such as Scarybear, Memmaid and Sktools to clear the notifications queue is often a necessity to solve problems with alarms (either not going off or not cancelling etc.) However, the file repllog,exe will show up using these applications and should NOT be deleted unless it is duplicated (exact duplicate, there may be 4 or 5 repllog files 2 of which are essential and may look like duplicates but are not). This is because these files notify the device that a USB cable has been connected and readies the device for Syncing. ActiveSync will not load if repllog.exe is missing in the TWO forms listed below:
1
repllog.exe
AppRunAtRs232Detect
AND
2.
repllog.exe
AppRunAfterRndisFnDetected
Adapted for the following but probably applies to other windows mobile devices:
HTC TyTN / XDA trion / MDA Vario II / VPA Compact III / SPV M3100 / Dopod CHT 9000 / Dopod 838 Pro Step 1 To Replace repllog.exe - AppRunAtRs232Detect
(i.e. to get Active Sync to detect when you plug in the USB cable) (Steps written for Memmaid, but Sktools is just as good. To ‘add’ a notification in Sktools just go to notifications and tap/hold an existing entry in the top list and an option to add appears.)
1) Open 'MemMaid and go to the Notification Queue tab 2) Tap Add 3) In the Add Notification - Program field, tap the '...' icon. 4) In the folder tree, find \windows\repllog.exe and tap it. 5) In Add Notification - Event', choose 'An RS232 connection was made'. 6) Tap the 'Add' icon. 7) Exit and long-press the on/off button until the warning appears and tap yes to turn off the device. 8) Long-press the on/off button to restart the device and Active Sync should work on connection of the USB cable. Step 2 To Replace repllog.exe AppRunAfterRndisFnDetected
(i.e. to get Active Sync to open/connect to network on detection of the USB cable)
The second notification you need is repllog.exe AppRunAfterRndisFnDetected
Follow same procedure as above choosing the option in sktools or memmaid to start when a network is detected OR just use this little application that will make the entry for you: http://forum.xda-developers.com/atta...6&d=1155128708 (to use this application save the file to your PC or Device. Put it on the storage card (using a PC card reader if necessary) and tap to run. (it is a PPC EXE file not to be run on PC) You will simply get a screen that has an OK button. Tap it and you are done. Restart your SKtools or Memmaid and the key should be there. Check you now have both replllog notifications present. You may have other repllog.exe notifications listed but you MUST have the two named above. The sub names of the repllog entries may differ slightly from those given above. The above names are in an abbreviated form as they appear on an untouched device, but so long as you have one that mentions RS232 and one that mentions network or RNDIS you should be OK. You may be able to run AS now or may need to restart device and or PC. NB: I have run a full test of the procedures here to test whether replacing these files reactivates Activesync. I deliberately deleted all my notifications (a risky thing as we know) - Activesync refused to start as expected. Using the methods above I replaced the two repllog entries and confirmed their presence. Activesync is working again. Mike March 07 Hermes Freezing/HangingReducing lock-ups and freezing:
A key consideration here is the active sync application that is linked with many lock up problems - particularly overnight or during active syncs auto scheduling process.
A quick way to temporarily shut Active Sync down (as well as any other programmes running in the background) would be say Magic Button or HTC X Button which are quicker than using the running programmes in the memory menu to do this.
However Active Sync can start again by itself via various scheduling routines. There is a way to prevent this known as the "Fake Server Trick":
This 'server trick' was discovered by an Aximsite forum member known as Invid This post originally created by IamNotMe fourpages.co.uk (Adapted)
1.
Turn on your Device
2.
Go to Start > Programs > Activesync. This will open the Activesync program.
3.
Tap Menu at the bottom right hand corner of the screen. This will bring up the Options Menu. Notice the option Schedule... is greyed out? This is the all-critical option we need to get access to. But as it's disabled we can't change Activesync's default synchronisation schedule. Ok, so how do we enable the Schedule option? Easy!!! Fool Activesync into thinking there is an Exchange Server to sync with:
1.
From Activesync's Menu tap on Add Server Source.
2.
In the following screens you can enter any old garbage. It does not matter, but just in case your unsure, just type the following in the indicated boxes:
Server Address: fake Tap Next
User name: fake
Password: fake
Domain: fake (Ticking save password or going into the Advanced menu makes no difference, so no need to bother). Tap Next Untick all of the 'Data you want to synchronise' options Tap Finish
3.
Ok, we're done creating the server. You should now see in Activesync's main screen your normal Activesync connection(s), and a new connection called Exchange Server.
4.
Go back into the Menu, and lo and behold the Schedule option is now enabled! Go ahead and tap it!
5. You will see that both options in the Schedule screen may be set to Every 5 Minutes
6.
Using the drop downs, change both the Peak times and Off-peak times boxes to Manually.
7. Press the OK button at the top right of the screen.
Congratulations! Activesync is now gagged from opening on it's own and ruining your life! Your work is not done just yet though - time to clean up and get rid of the now unwanted fake Exchange Server.
1.
Go back into Activesync's Menu, then Tap Options.
2.
Highlight Exchange Server, then tap Delete. A warning message will appear about removing files etc, but as you have no files associated with the fake Exchange Server, it's nothing to worry about - just tap Ok. Edit: Some people have reported that settings "stick" better if you Do Not delete the fake server just leave it, it does not actually do anything anyway - it was just a way to set active sync to manual operation not automatic. Item 3 below, if you leave it in place will therefore show two Sync Connections i.e. the real and the fake.
3. The list will now only show your remaining PC Sync connection(s). Obviously do not delete these!"
You should also:
A
ensure Active sync is turned off fully after use using a proprietry programme Magic Button say or HTC X Button.
B
consider using a scheduler to perform a soft reset automatically say before any alarms go off in the morning. This ensures unwanted programmes like active sync and others do not crash the system when the alarms go off or crash the device when you try to switch on. SKSchema or xbar would fit the bill for this.
C
Avoid leaving device on charge overnight.
D
Running only one or two Today Plugins and avoiding some apps that like to synchronise automatically with internet sources push mail / weather etc. (although with a good neat set up these can operate ok)
E
ensure any applications required on wake up are installed to Main memory (today plug ins, wallpapers etc), with all others installed to SD Card
F
Do not overfill main memory Hermes performs better with a good bit of spare space.
G
Do NOT let your device go to sleep by itself! Always use the on/off button to put it in sleep mode. In fact I would go further and suggest you go to:
Start>settings>system>power>advanced and remove the ticks in the two little boxes.
Just remember to use that on off button. Of course the device should be able to sleep by itself BUT this XDA does not perform well and often crashes if you let it sleep automatically.
