Where did sync go? - Hero CDMA General

When I plug in my notifications drop down gives me an option to mount, but th option to syn is gone? What might have caused this?

still having this problem and my forum/google search turned up nothing.
so far I looked around in settings and apps but found nothing that might have changed htc sync,
also i reinstalled sync from the sd on my PC. still the same
when im plugged in i have an option to mount, but not to sync. one line only in notifications bar.

turned off usb debugging, thought it might be that... it wasnt, still no sync

well i feel like a dork.. i think something advanced task killer did might have done it.. i turned off auto start on it and rebooted again and now i have it back..
thanks for all the help =)
whats the best task stopper out there?

Screensaver inactive while using activesync -Help pse

When I connect my Tytn to the PC the today screen is displayed for the whole time I am connected, however I do remember when I first had the device that there was a slide show type of screen saver playing.
Is there a setting I have missed resetting after ROM upgrading?
I have looked in both activesync settings and the tytn but cannot find anything obvious.
Al
Anyone?
As no one has answered I'm wondering if this is just too dumb a question and the setting is obvious?
Al
Anyone Help
BUMP
Someone must surely know the answer to this?
Al
Don't know if it's what you're after, but in the standard "Pictures & Videos" application, look in Options, and then the Slide Show tab. There's an option called "Play screensaver when connected to my PC and idle for 2 minutes". Never used and don't know if it works, but that's the nearest non-3rd party thing I've heard of.
Screensaver
Thanks for the reply. I was sure that was the answer but sadly it isn't. The check box was empty so I checked it and plugged into the PC but after half an hour the screen was still on the Today screen.
Can't think of anything else except maybe the ROM doesn't let the screen saver work.
Al
I just did a SR and now it works so I guess that was the solution!

Wanting to delete bandswitch app.

Hey everyone
Before I start I'd just like to say I'm completely stoopid and went ahead and rather hastily downloaded the Bandswitch.V2.8.CAB on one of the threads on this forum and wasnt so sure how to work it (or if im completely honest what the app even did!). Anyway I'm a little lost with it and was wondering how to get rid of it. Ive tried to get rid of it by deleting the initial file i downloaded from my laptop but the icon remains on my screen and I cant seem to switch my wifi or data connection buttons on or off.
I'd like to reiterate that I'm pretty dumb regarding this so a step by step guide would be much appreciated! thanks!
Wait, you installed the app on your laptop?
well not not the app just put the program on my laptop to transfer to my phone
It will be in the programs list in Settings, System, Remove programs (or Settings tab, Menu, All settings, System, Remove programs).
You can uninstall it from there
Okay so I'm getting a little bit of a panic on now everyone... I decided to do a hard reset because it wouldnt get rid of all of the bandswitch app using the 'remove programs' program and although the hard reset has got rid of the bandswitch icon and any trace of the app im having problems with my comm manager. My wifi has gone grey so I cant even hit it on or off (never happened before) and the data connection button (although not turned grey like the wifi one) will not be turned on or off...help?
**** sorted it everyone phew thank god for that! sorry for being a pain in the ass!

Disabling Wi-Fi

Hey,
I am having problems disabling my Wi-Fi. To be honest this isn't really a problem because my Wi-Fi is faster than mobile data transfers. Having said that though, obviously i would like the option to turn it off.
I havn't changed anything today on my phone so no software changes etc. Just on 'Comm Manager' on the Wi-Fi switch the whole line is light grayed out (and therefore i cant do anything)
Tried the standard turn off/turn on, soft reset, holding power button and terminate data connection, yet it is still grayed out and still on...
Any Ideas?
Sorry if there is already a similar post. I had a quick look and search but couldn't find anything to help. Please point in the right direction if there is.

Go to Settings, Menu, All Settings, Connection, Wi-fi. There's a checkbox there for turning on and off. You may find that doing this re-enables the one on the comm manager, otherwise, you're stuck with doing it that way (for some strange reason).
I'd also recommend the Wifi shortcut on the cab thread in the HD2 themes and apps forum. I have that in my quicklinks so I can quickly toggle the wifi on and off whenever I get home or to work or a friend's house etc..
Cheers bud.
Thats turned it off, but yeh as you suspected it doesn't enable me to do it in comm manager. Do you think you could give me a link to that quick link?

Yes mate - it's in my signature - the cabs link. You want the Touch X reset and wifi cab. It creates shortcuts in your start menu, and you can then add them as quicklinks if you want.
This may well be a stupid question, but is the device connected to PC with a USB cable just now?
hicks:
Nope, not currently... It was earlier though... If that is meant to make it so you cant toggle it, maybe it might be stuck like that from earlier... I will try plugging it back in later and see if this sorts it.
Cheers

Excellent cheers! haha didn't see it there

They weren't there earlier. I decided that you'd be the last person I'd search for those threads myself for
legend.
Oh and yeh seems it was a minor fault... plugged it back into comp and disconnected again, seems to be sorted in comm manager now.

phone always in sync

Im currently running cmylxgo topia hd desire rom and for some reason my phone is always in sync. The cirle with the arrows is always on. Its killing my battery life. I have the background data checked as well as my 2 gmails cause I need my emails to push thru immediately. IS there something i'm doing wrong. Ive compared it to my wifes phone and we have the same things checked off but my sync is always on....
i had that issue. ont he power control widget uncheck the spinning arrows. the go to your email and just adjust yoru settign for the times you want your emails to bchecked for new emails. that should solve the problem it worked for me but on diffrent rom. so try it on yours.
Having this problem too...
Any other solutions?
Edit.
Hmmmm may have been related to a Google app trying to auto update

2 problems i cant figure out with my S3

the first one is every time i open a folder on my home screen my phone talks and says "folder is open" then when i close it it says "folder is closed". i cant figure it out for the life of me. anyone have a clue as to what is causing this? only way around it right now is if i turn the media volume off, but then i cant listen to music ect. its driving me crazy!
the other is right when i got the phone i installed light flow to change the led notification settings. but now whether i have light flow enabled or not, and whether i have led indicator notifications (under settings) enabled or disabled, whenever i lock the phone the led glows green constantly, wont turn off.
anyone have any ideas what is causing these 2 problems?
I dont know about the first issue, but regarding lightlow, at this point in time , it doesnt work properly with the us versions, I also install it and had the led green light on all the time, you still can use the notifications, but the color part is messed up
Uninstall light flow.

I uninstalled light flow. It got rid of the green light. I hope they fix light flow soon, i really like the idea of it, never used it before.
Other problem is still present. Any one have any idea of whats causing it to say "folder open" and "folder closed"?

If you root make a nandriod in cwm or use titanium backup or mybackup
