Solution - Axim not turning on, Disappearing CF/SD Cards and Battery Discharge

[rlarson_mn]

I fixed my CF and SD card issues by upgrading my ROM to WM6. No problems after that. :approve:

I am an HP rx5915 owner and had the same problem with Msoft ActiveSync as described in this thread. I tried the OP's advice but the dat-burned ActiveSync still would not let up. But I realized after 2x-checking my handheld AS settings that it was the AS on my PC that was driving the update process. So I opened up AS Connection Settings on my PC and unchecked "Allow USB connections" and that as they say was that. Now the auto-sync doesn't happen anymore and I can always re-enable USB connections when I want it to sync, and stil keep the handheld plugged into the USB port to stay charged. Hope this helps others.

Oh yeah, just want to add this: I just discovered how to turn off AS on the handheld, too. In AS on the handheld, pick "Menu"->"Connections" and uncheck the "When cradled" box and life becomes happy again.

my solution was to tell activesync to use IR to sync; don't plug in the usb, so the cradle only charges. As long as no ir is close, AS doesn't launch & my peace is sweet!

I have been having the disappearing CF card thing for a while. But yesterday i got the WSOD, and it's stayed that way. I tried the active sync fix(though it was quite difficult with the white screen) but i stll have it. Should I just replace the digitizer or what, this thing cost me a fortune! HEEELLLPPP!!!
