Symptoms

Assume that some Exchange ActiveSync (EAS) devices are synchronizing with servers in a Microsoft Exchange Server 2010 environment. When you check the status of the EAS devices in Exchange Control Panel (ECP) or by running the Get-ActiveSyncDevice cmdlet in Exchange Management Shell (EMS), the status is unexpectedly marked as Blocked. However, the data is synchronized successfully.
