Sync Issues - G1 General

Using JF 1.51 ADP build, no themes, no other customizations, no A2SD.
I noticed my email hadn't been coming in for a while, so I looked under my sync settings. My phone hasn't synced since June 28th, and it is now July 9th.
I can't pinpoint the issue to that date, there was nothing special about it that would force it to stop syncing. I've tried rebooting and manually syncing, but even manual sync won't activate, it just sits there as if I hadn't tried to sync.
When I turn off the auto-sync and activate each specific sync, they just sit there with the sync logo beside them, and don't do anything.
Anybody have any clues?
EDIT: This was retarded, it started syncing after another reboot. Guess 17 was the lucky number.
Delete please.

Google Stopped Syncing?

Hi all,
just noticed something funny happened, as this morning I noticed no email alerts. Just checked the data synchronisation tab, and every stopped syncing from about last night midnight. As well as this, the mail one has a constant, non-moving sync icon on it.
Any one else had this problem? AFAIK, I haven't changed anything for a while, no new apps, ROM, radio for at least 2 weeks.
Thanks in advance
Syncing stopped
Same thing seemed to happen to facebook link. OK now
Yeah I saw the same thing yesterday, the night before I had changed my password and kept thinking it was related to that.
But at some point it started working again!
Mine, too, has begun to work again, after a few days of non-syncing... It is a bit weird, especially since this is all meant to be push email?
My contacts are not syncing but calendar and email is.

G2 stopped auto syncing Gmail?

And iv checked everything, sync is enabled everywhere. If I turn off sync and turn it on again, whatever is waiting comes through, but then never again. I even just did a factory reset and flashed the new update, and its still broken, before and after update. WTH could cause Gmail to stop syncing that a factory reset wont fix?????
even i am facing the same problem since this morning....gmail wont auto sync!! i have to refresh it manually.
Another thing i noticed is that i cant find the visual voicemail app in the market...does anyone have the apk for it?
wow im glad to here its not just me, i missed about 2 days worth of emails (I should have known...no way i could actually go 2 days with out some bs from work) before i realized it
Me as well. I haven't updated my phone yet.. so I don't think it's the ota causing the issue. I've missed numerous emails since yesterday.
Glad its not just me, I wonder if Gmail is borked for everyone at the moment? Im surprised we're not hearing more about this....
ive done everything but a factory reset, i have not had gmail sync since about 12pm MST
try going into settings/applications and find gmail and click it. clear the cache first and see if it works, otherwise clear data... it'll resync from scratch. this happens randomly and this usually fixes it.

ive been doing that about once an hour, still nothing.
I did both of those things multiple times, they didnt help. Then I did a factory reset, that also did nothing. I feel like if a factory reset doesn't help the problem is probably on google's end.
Mine has been doing this since yesterday (before OTA) and has been doing it today as well (since OTA).
I had to load the shipping ROM due to deleting Google Goggles before the OTA. So I doubt if a factory reset or anything will help the situation. I'm not getting automatic syncing of Gmail at all. I believe its something on Google's end. Hopefully it gets sorted out soon.

I've updated with the OTA and my gmail is syncing, so I doubt it's the update that's causing the issue. I did have this happen to me before when gmail stopped syncing, but all I had to do was to go back to "settings" -> "accounts & sync" and turn on auto-sync for gmail again.
I am only getting my gmail via manually choosing refresh. Also, deleting on the phone will not delete on my computer. Annoying. This has happened before, and seems to get resolved in a couple of days.
Seems to be an issue with other Android handsets as well.
I have a link, from Google Support forum, but since I'm a new user here, it will not allow me to submit the link.
Seems like Google is working on a fix though.
Well, that makes me feel a little bit better.
I noticed yesterday it wasn't syncing, so I followed the normal clearing of cache and data, and checked all the syncing settings.
It definitely has to be an issue on the other end for everyone to be having this problem at the same time.
same here. I thought the G2 update messed up the Gmail sync, but then I realized that my Nexus One was doing the same thing as well which I use as a tablet from time to time via wifi. Let's be patient and have Google work the issue, just a matter of time.
Easy fix
Go to settings and disable auto sync
Then turn off phone
Turn phone back on
Go to settings and enable auto sync
This fixed my issue after installing the updated OTA

Tried dilfatx's fix to no avail. Hopefully Google fixes this up quickly.
You are correct.. it worked for me for few hours.. tested it out.. now its not sync again.. this is a whole other issue..

Android central is reporting some issues with Google and sync e-mail accounts. Apparently Google is already hard work resolving the issue.
IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE OTA UPDATE!!!!

No Push Notifications Coming Through (Gmail, WordFeud to be exact)

So I have Gmail app and WordFeud app on my phone and just recently, the notifications have stopped. I'll log into Gmail on my computer and see that I have 2 or 3 new items from as long 4 or 5 hours ago and have not received any notificaiton on my phone about. On my phone, I'll go into Gmail, hit refresh, and then the mail shows.
With WordFeud, I go in and see that it's been "my turn" for hours but I never received a notification. I've checked and verified that background data and auto-sync is on, but regardless, no changes have been made to my phone between the time when I always received notifications and now, when I don't receive them. All SMS and MMS messages come through right on time with notifications, so I have no idea what's happened with Gmail and WordFeud.
Anybody else run into these issues in the past, or now? Thanks for any advice!
One more thing, which is odd... I've noticed that when I wake up in the morning, like 6:30AM, I have Gmail and WordFeud notifications that must have came through overnight, but it's for new stuff, nothing I previously manually refreshed and deleted in Gmail for example. After that, I don't get Gmail or Wordfeud notifications for the rest of the day until the next morning. So, it seems like I get them once a day, which is sometime overnight. Weird, I know, I wish I knew what caused this...
nevermind on this guys... after some testing i was able to determine the root cause. it was due to a combination of having gtalk disabled and the wifi connection that i'm connected to at work. basically, with the wifi connection i have at work, gtalk can't connect to it. i turned off my work wifi connection, which turned 3G back on, and i was able to connect to gtalk. once connected to gtalk, push notifications began coming thru just fine.
i re-tested this by connecting back to my work wifi and this made gtalk disable automatically, as it could no longer stay connected. i sent myself a test email via my computer and it never came thru on my phone (unless i opened gmail and manually refreshed). turned off work wifi... 3G comes back on and gtalk auto connected and my (2nd test) email finally came thru on my phone!
i tested this with my wifi connection at home and gtalk connects to that just fine, so the main culprit of this entire post was the wifi connection at my work (some strong security i guess)! the great thing i took away from this is that, bottom line, in order to receive push notifications, gtalk must be enabled and connected!!
(figured i'd post all of this, not only for you guys or anyone that has an issue like this, but also so i can come back and read it if i ever forget what i tested!)

[Q] Microsoft Exchange with Texts???

I got my G2 yesterday. I set up Exchange for my work and everything worked fine until today. I got an email followed shortly by a message that my id or password may be wrong. I double check, and re-enter my password, because this has been happening fairly often for the last 6 months, and this appears to fix it. It synced fine, but now, when I receive a text, I also get an exchange email of the text.
Never seen this before. Anyone know what's going on?
P.S. After this started, the phone stopped syncing email again, but the texts are still transcribing because I'm getting them on my other phones.
UPDATE: I figured out the problem. Please delete MOD. I'm a moron who panicked instead of following normal troubleshooting procedures.
And now syncing is working??? WTH is going on? I am trying to delete and reinstall my exchange now.
I'm such an idiot. I somehow accidentally checked "SMS sync". Never seen that option before. Once I unchecked, it no longer syncs the texts.

Email Randomly syncing with Exchange

Hello, I have read and searched for the last week trying to find the issue relating to my email not syncing without any luck. Although it seems that in most cases, the Auto-Sync data was turned off, that doesn't appear to be my issue.
So here are the details.
The Phone:
Samsung S5 Active SM-G870A running stock everything on Version 4.4.2. The Baseband is G870AUCU1ANG3
The Steps:
First off, I had no issues with it push email on my S4 active and exchange email what-so-ever for the last two years. Recently, the NFC quit working on my S4 Active, and insurance replaced it with an S5 Active.
I went into Exchange in the web interface (OWA) and deleted the old S4 profile before activating the new S5 Active.
I activated the email, set it to push, I don't use the peak time, as I have a 30 gig plan. I verified that the Auto-Sync-Data is checked, and I checked to see if exchange services is restricted to run in the background and it is not.
So the problem is, the email seems to sync when it wants too (Randomly), rather than push or any timed schedule. After a reboot, it will work fine for about an hour, then slowly, it syncs at 5 mins, 10 mins, sometimes 60 mins or longer. It just has a mind of its own of when it wants to sync rather than push. I want to stick with the stock app, and have tried Cloud Magic, and a couple others, and its just not my "cup of tea". I am at my wits end, and could use some suggestions. I appreciate any and all replies.
Thank you in advance.
