Syncing Nokia N9 with Windows Live [UPDATED 26.10.2012]

This way of syncing Nokia N9 is probably my favourite as it keeps full backup of all contacts and calendar in both Windows Live cloud and Outlook 2010, and Outlook 2013 (preview at the moment), and the entries are kept updated no matter where you change them. The possibilities to access your mail, calendar and contacts are plenty. You can e.g. add calendar entries in Windows Live (Hotmail) Calendar, Outlook on your PC, or your Nokia N9. Everything syncs as soon as you sync the Mail for Exchange account.
Nokia does not (officially) offer Windows Live support in the accounts list. 


Here are several easy steps I found to make the magic happen:




1. Configure your Windows Live/Hotmail account as Mail for Exchange (the blue icon)

Email address: my.account@yourdomain.com
username: my.account@yourdomain.com (full address)
password: your Windows Live password (NOT your gmail password)
domain: leave  empty
Server: m.hotmail.com


Adjust your other schedule options and sync details.

2. At this point the account will not sync, due to problem with Microsoft servers. Many people reported this and MS have not resolved the matter.

Download a small tweak and install it. Run the MeMailSettings app from your phone's menu.

3. Use Easy Tweak Mode, choose your mail account, select Force EAS protocol version. (See screenshots below)





4. Enter 2.5 and press Save Settings. Close the app.

5. Restart your phone. Enjoy your fully synced N9+Outlook+Windows Live!

    I suppose there is still no way of receiving the e-mails from the Hotmail/Outlook accounts in their original HTML format?

    I wasn't precise though: I'm trying to sync my google contacts with the N9 via Outlook. With this tweak it pushes the contacts between the N9 and Outlook, but then Outlook won't sync with Google.

    The other thing that you could do, which is what I do to save on battery life, is just to access Hotmail from the default web browser. Make sure you use the iPhone user agent mod here, it really makes a big difference!
