A: The AT&T Tilt, actually an HTC 8925 came with Windows Mobile 6.0 before October 31, 2008 and Windows Mobile 6.1 Professional after October 31, 2008. You may have upgraded yours to Windows Mobile 6.1 Professional.
After the Daylight Savings Time patch pushed out in early November, the AT&T Tilt's calendar would not synchronize with Exchange Server.
E-mail, contacts and tasks continued to synchronize with both Exchange Server 2003 and Exchange Server 2007, but if you try to synchronize the calendar, the ActiveSync would go into an endless loop of appointments. Even if you somehow get that to stop, you still cannot get an appointment created or edited on your phone to sync with the server. Appointments created on the server will, however, sync to the phone and appointments deleted from the phone will be deleted from the server.
The solution is to manually change the date on the phone to a date before the fall Daylight Savings Time change and then change it back to the correct date. Here's how:
1. Stop your phone's data communications. Click the 3G or E symbol on the information bar at the top of the screen and then click Disconnect.
2. Change the time zone: Navigate to START | SETTINGS | SYSTEM | Clock. On the Time tab, change the time zone to London (GMT).
3. Synchronize with your server: Navigate to START | PROGRAMS | Active Sync and click the left soft key for Sync.
4. Change the time zone: Navigate to START | SETTINGS | SYSTEM | Clock. On the Time tab, change the time zone to YOUR TIME ZONE.
You should now be able to synchronize correctly in both directions (phone to server and server to phone).
A: Tired of that annoying sound and want a simple solution?
1. Create a wave file you like or create a blank .wav file. To create a blank file, right-click your desktop and select New Text Document. Rename the file to 3G_Up_Soft.wav (you'll need to make sure that you can see the file extension). You should end up with an empty wave file on your desktop.
2. Using ActiveSync or Windows Mobile Device Manager, save the file you made to your Tilt (storage card works nicely).
3. Copy that file into the \Windows directory on the Tilt.
4. Using File Explorer on the Tilt, rename the file you created within the \Windows directory to 3G_Up.wav. (It should allow you to do this without warning or issue, even though a file of that name already exists!)
5) Soft reset and enjoy the new sound or no sound at all!
