Exchange account constantly asking for password - Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General

I've searched high and low for an answer to this issue.
I have an AT&T Tilt currently running NATF 5 Loaded ROM. My phone keeps asking me for the password to my mail server. I can enter it, click the save password box, and it still will ask for my password after some time. It may happen in 5 minutes or 5 hours. No real rhyme or reason as to why.
Anyone else seen this or know of a fix?
TIA!

does it actually connect to the exchange server when you enter the password?

Yes, sir. It certainly does.
Also, this happens no matter what ROM I use. My guess is that there's something server side going on. I'd like to know what so I can get it fixed.

If you're connecting to a server with an SSL certificate chain that doesn't directly lead to a trusted root one built into the phone you'll get that. At least it happened to me where I run my own exchange server with a self-signed certificate.
Check out this page:
http://blogs.msdn.com/windowsmobile/archive/2008/05/18/sslchainsaver-v2-released.aspx
And install all of the certificates in the chain onto your device. When you run the program it will make some XML files that I couldn't get to work right, but just copy the actual certificate files (from the folder it makes with your mailserver's name) onto your device and run them to install. Reboot your device and see if the problem goes away. If it doesn't, it's probably a server-side issue.

Nopple,
Thanks for the insight, man! I'm testing it now. We have a self-signed certificate. When I ran SSL Chain Saver it told me it could not get the root but grabbed what it could. I originally exported a certificate from the OWA server but I guess you need more than that when you are self-signed.
Anyway, I'm testing now and will post back once I'm done.
Thanks!

try this
use pocket ie and go to:
http://yourexchangeserver.com/oma (replace yourexchangeserver.com with the correct address of your exchange server)
Log in to your email and see if you are asked for your password.
This should tell you if your exchange server is setup for outlook mobile access. If it isn't, then you won't be able to log in. I used this quite a bit when getting our corp exchange server setup for my mobile users.

Nopple,
That did the trick!! I'll document appropriately for our internal network.
Thanks a TON for your help!

Need help with cert issues and direct push

I've been messing with direct push but haven't gotten it working yet, and I'm basically curious if it's even possible with my company's setup. Our IT group will not assist in any way or alter any certificates.
My company uses a wildcard cert on our OWA. The signer is in the root store on my Tilt. The CN on the cert is *.mycompany.com which obviously does NOT match the OWA address which is webmail.mycompany.com. I've read in another thread that this is required but I wasn't sure if this is true. I can't even get to our OWA in PIE. It just throws "The page cannot be displayed because the Web site cannot be authenticated". It works fine in Opera mobile. When I set up direct push, ActiveSync fails with the support code 0x80072F7D. If I intentionally botch my username or password I still get the same error, so I'm assuming it is happening due to cert issues before the connection can even be made.
Is direct push even possible with my company's cert setup or am I just poked?
If you can get the the .cer file copy it to your kaiser and open it. You should get a message saying its been successfully installed. That should be enough to get it working as long as the server is set up correctly.
if you can't login to OWA or OMA through PIE then it won't work through direct push. They have to be accessible via the browser without any prompts about certs or whatnot. The issue here seems to be a funky cert. setup.
Thanks for the responses. The cert is/was already installed on the device. Looks like the CN matching the OWA address might really be true and I'm poked. I've gone to SEVEN as a workaround. Well written (unlike the emoze OWA app which brought my phone to a screeching halt), but sometimes emails have a delay of up to 30 minutes . All well. And damn the kaiser forums are busy, I was already page 7 news
Are you trying to access OWA using https? Also, *.mycompany.com does match webmail.mycompany.com. That is the point of the wildcard. ipodzsuck.mycompany.com would also match.
It could be a private certificate. Hell, exchaneg maynot be setup to allow activsync.
Try using a browser and going to https://webmail.mycompany.com/certsrv
There is probably a certificate server that was used to generate the private cert.
It is not neccacarilly the same as the webmail server but is worth a shot. Also if you know any other server names you can try those with a "/certsrv" at the end.
Good Luck, Lew
To the best of my knowledge and extensive frustration, you can't use a self-signed cert. If you aren't using a self-cert, you should be ok, HOWEVER, getting it set up right is extremely tricky. Once we got it up, I tried to help a customer a little, never got it working properly - we got the cert working but the folders wouldn't sync.
My experience is it is very easy as long as you install the private cert on everything that is goign to connect.
Later, Lew

Thanks Lew. I can indeed hit the OWA at /certsrv on any desktop, but not PIE. And yes, it's using https. I kind of doubt the exchange server is even set up to allow it. Is there any way I can tell for sure short of logging into the server? Also, I'm not sure if this has anything to do with my problems, but if you hit our OWA inside of our corp. network the cert is a different one and is self signed.
self signed certificates
I have been trying to resolve this same issue with my tilt. I have set up a self signed certificate for my exchange server. This certificate works on any pc inside or outside the local network; however, the certificate will not install as a root certificate on my tilt. After installing the certificate it appears as an intermediate certificate, but not a root certificate.
I think that att has blocked the software so that self signed certificates will not install in the root directory. Not sure of the motivation for this other than to force users to use their express mail service which costs $5 per month.
Are there any work arounds for this? Can applications be unlocked?

SOLVED: Exchange sync error 0x80072F0D

Hello,
My company uses Exchange server 2003 sp2. I've tried to sync my TyTN II several times but I always get this message: "The security certificate on the server is invalid. Contact your system administrator or ISP to install a valid certificate on the server and try again".
I'm actually able to access https://myserver.com/OMA (not http) using my nickname and password, but I don't even know what that means. I talked to the IT guys and they just sent me to a Microsoft page where it says: "This problem may occur because the device manufacturer locked the Windows Mobile 5.0-based device. This lock prevents you from installing Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) certificates correctly".
So, their only answer was: contact your manufacturer to see if the device is locked (??). (Although they also said I didn't need a SSL certificate)
¿Could anybody please help me to understand this? ¿Do I have to install a certificate? ¿Do the IT guys have to do it? I really need to solve this so any information is welcome
thanks a lot.
If it is a "self-signed" certificate (and not an official one bought f.e. via verisign.com), than you have to install it on your device to make it "valid". Additionally the Hostname provided in the certificate must exactly match the hostname of your exchange-server otherwise it won't work either. HTH
PS.: you can find out both when you access your companys exchange server via OWA (OutlookWebAccess). Once you're logged on you can examin the certificate and look if the hostname matches, if the certificate is still valid (every certificate has an expiration date) and who the "certification authority" is.
You can still use OWA if the company allows you to use it unencrypted. Just uncheck use SSL during setup.
I'd be curious if anyone would know how to rip the public key from Firefox or something so it can be imported to the phone to make it work.
I have been told if you can get your exchange admin to send you the .CERT file from the IIS webserver you can run that on your phone and get it to work. However, I believe that has the public and private key pairs, which is a security risk to your entire organization if you have the private pair!

domain credentials over unsecured channel, bad mojo man
Your IS guys should have a certificate for you to install which will resolve the problemI have a root ca certificate for my company installed on my phone so I have no problem using any certificate they sign.
As already said, check the hostname matches extacly and check the expiry date of the certificate.
Hey Guys, thanks for all your answers!
I'm logged on the OWA server and the certificate says "Equifax Secure global eBusiness CA-1". The expiration date is 24/02/2010. Does anybody know how can I install this on my device? I checked the hostname and it matches perfectly
If it is like the certificate I have to use to get my Tilt/Office Exchange to work, then you just double click on it and it should say "Installed" or something like that. After that, assuming you have everything else setup, it should work like a charm.
thanks a lot to all you guys! Had some problems because the certificate would install in the "intermediate" store, instead of the root store, but I found this site and followed the instructions:
http://www.confusedamused.com/notebook/installing-windows-mobile-60-root-certificates/
It's synchronizing right now and it's way faster than activesync!
Well I was able to save, and copy the certificate by going to my companies OWA site.
I copied it via memory card, and was able to install it. Upon installing it I'm not asked for an option of where to install it (root vs. intermediate, etc)
Unfortunately by default it is going to intermediate.
I hope that this will fix it once I figure out how to install it into root.
For now it has not fixed my problem, still get an error synchronizing with the server.
Edit:
Strange, I re-installed the certificate, to make sure it was from the "head" title branch (my company has an extra level to the branch so I tried both), and this time instead of soft-reset, I completely shut-down the phone.
Powering it back up, it now sync's fine, and there is a 2nd verisign cert with a different expiration installed in the root store. My poor outlook is still syncing data as it catches up for the last couple weeks!
Doh.

I also had this problem, and the sync. still does not work... if someone has some idea
Thank you
hello everyone,
I got this to work by installing the .cer certificate from the self signed website certificate AND installing a .cer from the server's self signed ROOT CERTIFICATE. The root certificate is usually located on the C: drive of the server with certificate services installed. Your IT guy should know where this is. You just copy the root cert to a file just as you would the website cert. Install both on the phone...the website cert will go to "intermediate" and the rott cert will go into the "root" store. Once I did this, no more error codes and my activesync shows "connected" instead of the last time it was synced.

Problems with synching exchange mail - Kaiser and Wizard...

I have received a HTC TYTN II from my company, which currently is synching with our mailserver so that I can read my email wherever I am.
Since I'm curious, I tried to get my old Wizard to do the same. I did the same install as with the Kaiser, but I get the dreaded "0x85010004". I scanned thru the Kaisers registry and took all root-certificates under "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\Security\SystemCertificates" and imported them into the Wizard and rebooted, but no luck. I am assuming it's a certificate of some kind that is missing, but I can't find where else it could be? Does Exchange install a hidden certificate on the phone in order to identify it, and if so - why isn't it shown in the certificates menu?
Any help is appreciated.

activesync cert with exchange
hi fredrik,
activesync accessing exchange on a mobile device uses OWA (outlook web access) to access your email through SSL. the best way to get the cert you need is to log into your OWA (probably something like https://webmail.yourcompanyname.com) or whatever it is (it's the same address you use when you put in when confiigure exchange with activesync) from a desktop pc. than, right click on a blank portion of the page and go to properties. you should see a button that says certificates, click on that, than click on the details tab. than click on the "copy to file" button and the cert export wizard will start. click next, than select base64 as the type of cert, than hit next, name it, save it, put it on a memory card or bluetooth the file to your phone and install it. sometimes, during the install, your phone will error out when installing it, just soft reset, and then install it again. you should get a message that says it was installed successfully. than configure for activesync for exchange on your phone and you should be all good. let me know if that works for you.
Thanks for the help!
Tried that and got the same problem. The original phone has Pointsec installed in it, but I do not think that it gerenates any certificates (at least not any I have found in the registry). Is the ACU version important?
/F
Talked to my IT department and they told me that Pointsec decodes a certificate in order to communicate with our mailservers. Anyone any good at pointsec and knows if it puts a crypto on the Registry or if it is purly file based? If the file is decrypted each time I punch in my code, it should register the time when the file is being decrypted... What programs can search files in WM and search for the time stamp?

I have an AT&T Tilt. I had Direct Push from Exchange Server working perfectly with no effort - was working for months. Then, I had a hardware problem with that phone and was given a replacement from AT&T. After replacing it I am unable to configure the direct push any more. I wrote down all the settings and carefully reapplied them on the new phone.
What I am seeing now is when manually invoking a send/receive, ActiveSync reports the following:
------
Result:
The server you are synchronizing with is not an Exchange Server, or is running incompatible
software. Choose Configure Server on the ActiveSync menu to specify the correct server.
Support Code: 0x85030022
------
I've been on the line with the hosted exchange server folks and there's no change on their end...
I installed the certificate as suggested above - seemed like it was worth a shot. No difference.
Any ideas?
sorry for the late reply.
I'm not too sure about your pointsec fredrick, as we don't use it on our mobile devices at work, but we do use it on our computers. as far as i know, pointsec is supposedly suppose to be transparent encrypt/decrypt after you first turn on your device and enter a passcode, heck, windows mobile should operate like pointsec isn't even on the device, so it shouldn't be a cert issue, but who knows, i never liked pointsec anyway. sorry i can't be more helpful.
ubetchya,
that error message is pretty straight forward, either the OWA address is wrong or your certificate isn't installed correctly. i know this sounds lame, but if you can, borrow a friend's Windows Mobile phone and config it with activesync to verify your settings are correct. for the owa address, try adding "/exchange" without the quotes at the end, maybe their redirect isn't working correctly. so if your server address is "https://webmail.hostedexchange.com", make it look like "https://webmail.hostedexchange.com/exchange" (that should take you to directly to the exchange server without using their redirect). if you want, you can also try downloading the certificate directly from your hosted exchange guys, if they have the cert page up that is (most exchange admins leave it up, i know we do =P ) to get to the cert page, go to a desktop pc...
1. type in your webmail server address and add "/certsrv" at the end without the quotes (ie; "https://webmail.hostedguys.com/certsrv"
2. it will prompt you for a username, it should be in the following format "domain\username", so if my domain was microsoft, and my username was bill, than my username would be "microsoft\bill" without the quotes
3. enter your password.
4. click on the last link, "download a certificate, certificate chain, etc"
5. select the base 64 encoding method and than click download CA certificate.
6. save it to a memory card or bluetooth it over to your phone and install it.
hope that helps!
oh... and one more thing about your server address, it could be different than adding "/exchange" at the end, to verify, just to your webmail and see wear it redirects, when you get to your login page (if using forms based authentication), use that address, if not using forms based, (small popup window for login) just log in and than use that address.

I got it working. The error message was pretty close to telling me that it's an invalid server "name". My hosted exchange provider uses owa3.... I was missing the all-important 3.
No matter how hard they try, programmers can't make it completely idiot proof...
All is working now beautifully. Thanks much for the suggestsions.
Tytn II
Hi there,
I'm trying to connnect my Tytn II to my work's exchange server so I can use it instead of having to use a Crackberry however I'm getting the following message in ActiveSync:
Support code # 0x85030022
The server you are synchronizing with is not an exchange sever, or is running incompatible software. Choose Configure Server on the ActiveSync menu to specify the correct server.
Can anyone help ?
Hi Smooth,
Have you tried all the steps in this thread already? make sure you have installed the correct certificate, have the correct server address and ask your administrator if activesync is enabled on the exchange server. post back with your results to the tricks in this thread and we'll see what else you can try.

[Q] Exchange 2003 Settings on HD7

Ok, so I don't know if anyone else is having a problem setting up their HD7 with corporate email (Exchange 2003) but I think I need some help on this one. I have tried some other forums in regards to troublesooting this issue but I still get one error or the other concerning not being able to connect.
Can someone just please tell me what the actual settings on the phone should be?
Username: ??
Password: (obvious)
Domain: ??
Server: ??
Server requires encrypted (SSL) connection (Check or uncheck)
Please I need the actual structure of how these fields should be entered.
Any help would be much appreciated.
What do you mean.. It's pretty straight forward. Did you configure your Exchange server on the Win 6.5 or any other Smart Phone Exchange account?
I personally use the OWA (Outlook Web Access) settings.
For my settings (this is how I log into my OWA)
Username: just my username NOT my entire email (this could be different as per your company's policies).
Password: You should know that
Domain: I have a domain for my work, but I know that it's not always required that you need a domain. I did have to enter a domain at my previous employer.
Server: This is always required. In my case, its the web address that comes after the https:// when I sign into my OWA account.
Hope this helps.
I have tried that and this is the error I get along with troubleshooting tips that I tried.
"There is a problem with the certificate for mail.mydomain.com. Error Code: 80072F06
I was told to try and retrieve the cert from my IIS and I emailed that to my hotmail and then installed the cert. The problem still persists. I also tried getting a third party root cert as well from www.cacert.org. Same issue.
What do you think the problem can be? And I don't think am the only one with this issue.

I have configured exchange on Win. MO 6.5 on my HTC Touch HD back then and it was a breeze. All I entered was incoming and outgoing set to mail.mydomain.com and that was it.
Apparently its a different ball game with Windows Phone 7.

I'm not sure if that was an exchange account you configured if you had options for incoming and outgoing mail servers. They are usually configured for POP mail accounts.
Sorry it the info wasn't helpful.
It's not really a different game with WP7. The same settings you would use on an iphone/WM6.5/Android is what you would use on a WP7.
As for the cert issue, if you are able to use exchange with any other smartphone OS, you should be able to with WP7.
My problem with exchange/WP7 is that I have to let it fail upon entering username/pw to get it to prompt for the domain. Then I have to let it fail so I can hit the advanced button to enter the servername (typically mail.servername.com).
I would like to be able to enter all 4 fields from the get go.
mail the .cert to your Live account that you use on your phone and open it on the phone click the .cert and it get downloaded , click it again . (it will install the .cert)
then try to setup your exchange again .
after i mail the cert, do I have to delete the account and reenter it or just try to resync or should it matter?
Honestly, this is really kicking my butt. I actually went on our exchange server, went to iis and got the cert off of the EAS and I rebooted my HD7 but no luck. I am going to try and setup the email again and see what happens.

I don't know , but I think it doesn't matter.
Still doesn't work....I am about to start pulling out my hair literally.
If you want a quick and easy solution, buy an actual digitally signed cert from a legit CoA like godaddy and install it on your exchange server. It will help with so many things, and your phone wont ask you for a cert anymore.
But my concern is why we have to go through that because we want to sync a "SMART" phone with corporate email. Really, is it worth buying a cert for that. I mean if Android, BB and Iphone can pull it off without any hassle, why should Microsoft make us go through all that and apparently no one complains much about this which makes it more annoying.
Yes, it is worth buying a cert for it. We're talking 30 bucks or so, and you won't have to rely on your servers self-signed cert. Things like mail.server.com/exchange will work flawlessly on any machine, never asking you to add an exception, etc.
Even if you had NO smartphones, it's a worthy investment, if only to have your mailserver more legit to the interwebs.
So yes, 30 dollars and an hour of your time are most certainly worth it.
"I mean if Android, BB and Iphone can pull it off without any hassle..."
It's a total hassle. You have to get a cert to the phone somehow and install it. Put a real cert on your server and you never ever have to do that crap again.
I am having similar problem. I tried the solution and saved the .cer file to HD7, however Exchange server is still not working with the same error
was anyone able to get this working?
Without having to buy the certificate

Where the hell do you get exchange cert for 30 bucks? The cheapest i´ve seen was like 200.
OP: you HAVE to import your servers self-issued cert, it won´t work without it, import it, and then do the settings, also make sure that you have activesync enabled on the server´s side.

[Q] Q: Exchange server

Hi guys,
Shoot me if this particular issue has shown up somewhere... (couldnt find it)
I am having problems connecting to the exchange server at work. My company has a very high security standard.
They have you digitally agree to usage conditions, and then have to activate you somewhere on a firewall...
They are using WOSH (whatever that is) ?
Now officially they said it would be only for rotten Apple phones. However i was told in confidence by enterprise application support it would work on any phone having exchange capabilties.
I have tried several programs: k9, touchdown, and now that standard android one.
In the guide to set it up for apple the information to enter is almost the same:
I now try with settings/accounts/add acount
email adress:
[email protected]
password:
Abcd1234
Next it fails and continues with:
domain/username
servercorp/firstletterlastname (1st letter of your first name + 7 of your last name)
password:
Abcd1234
Server:
wosh.server.com
Then there are options for using SSL
Use secured SSL connection
Accept all SSL certificates
here it mentions some ID: androidc2398921038
Client Certificate
This is how far I get, the guide continues with having to set a PIN after succesfull connection.... ?
I tried many permentations, in all cases I get "could not connect to server", i checked the server (wosh.server.com) it does resolve but does not allow ping.
Particulars / questions:
In the guide from work it does not mention SSL settings (and I tried with and without). In the guide there is a seperate field for Domain. The domain/username field shows up like that but in the prefilled example it show the slash backward instead of forward (\ vs /) I tried both to no avail.
Is there something specific to how apple phones identify themselves ? Can I mimmick that ? Could it be that kind off ID ?
Since they are so security sensitive could it be i need a client certifcate (it is not mentioned in the guide) ?
Are there any tests (telnet ?) i can do to find out the correct settings/changes ?
It is alot, I know, hope someone has an idea ?

If that doesn't work it's server related, it may pay to check in one of these threads but I don't know if they'll help with server issues:

Success.
yup using that one,
checking the other threads you posted..
hmmm,
In this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=12005679&postcount=49
you post some code aswell, do i need to use that to install the email.apk ? i just copied to sd and installed from there...
For starters I would like the policies implemented, scary i know, but at least I will adhere to company policies
Is there a way to check the device ID ? seems like different apps send different device IDs

Yes, it needs to run from /system/app/ so you'll need to follow the instructions on that page or use Root Explorer to drop it in there.
If you want one with Exchange Policies implemented you'll need to get a stock Froyo one from a custom rom somewhere (my Nexus ROM has it, see sig but make sure you get the CM6/Froyo version).
Not sure about device ID.
well I put the app on system app, using the sdk, seems fine only still not possible to use the exchange server....

I think you'll need to check with your server admin sorry.
NP thanks for the help, also tried the stock one from your sig (not the gingerbread one) same result unfortunately...
Has anyone managed to get Excange Server to work?
I get it to work the first ½ hour (mail appears quickly, but calender and contacts takes quite some time to load).
Now the issues:
- After about ½ hour it cannot sync anymore unless removing and reinstalling Exchange Server. What is the trick?
- I do not get to understand why all my contacts disapear if I remove Exchange Server. Any way to have them saved?
- I cannot edit my appointments, only add alarms. Perhaps another calender program?
- Can the different calenders (google, outlook and LG PC sync) be merged
Phone just hard reset and only Exchange Server activated. Without the Exchange Server I do not want to keep the phone. At the same time it works fine on my Wildfire (from where I comy the settings) and on my Touch Diamond.
