active sync question

[psyjohn]

Does anyone know if there's a way to find out what app is causing my PPC to turn on active sync and try to connect?

I recently did a hard reset and installed the following apps. Since then, active sync is frequently on when I turn on my device with the notification "unable to connect".

Installed apps:
SBSH: PocketBreeze, PocketWeather, iLauncher, MyList, ContactBreeze
MemMaid
Resco Explorer
Resco Registry
Wisbar Advance 2
Fitaly
Spb Insight
HandyShopper (on card)
Chronos
Pocket Bible (on card)
SuperCalendar
apMemo (on card)
psShutXP (on card)
+ several assorted games installed on the Storage Card

The only two apps(that I'm aware of) that require an internet connection are PocketWeather and Insight. I have checked the settings on both of these, but haven't found anything to indicate that either one would be automatically trying to connect.

I am running WM2003 on an HP4150.

One other thing I've noticed is that when I power off my device with the power button the screen there is still a faint glow on the screen. If I use ShutXP to power off I don't have the problem. 8O

Thanks,
John

Have you inadvertantly set ActiveSync to synch according to a schedule? On your device, open Activesync, then MENU, then SCHEDULE. That's where it may be set to try to connect at a given interval.

Let us know if that works.

I just checked and I have it set to only sync manually.

"Use mobile schedule to sync with this PC" is checked
"Sync with this PC during manual sync" is checked

Under the Mobile Schedule tab "Manually" is selected for both peak and off-peak.
