[SOLVED] [email protected] stopped synching - Hero, G2 Touch General

Hi,
since Friday/Saturday my phone can not synchronize the services configured under settings -> Accounts & Sync. Last sync was gmail @ saturday morning. All other syncs are from friday night. I can not remember that I changed something.
I have tried:
-> Restart phone.
-> deactivate/activate automatic syncing.
-> manully sync.
Only twitters android app can sync when I manually press refresh within the twitter app. Gmail, calendar and co can not sync, even when I press refresh or else.
Has anyone a hint for me, how I can activate sync again?
(I won't reinstall all before MCR 4.X. :-( )
Thanks for help,
Chr1s

How much ROM space have you got left?
When my phone gets low on memory space it stops syncing until I've deleted some apps.

That's it! Thanks a lot.
I should activate my new SD with A2SD.

Google calendar sync with Hero?

I'm a bit dim, it seems - sorry to ask, but I have set up my Outlook to sync with my Gmail account and although it shows on the Gmail page on my laptop browser, ever though I select that calendar on the phone, nothing happens.
I am obviously doing something slightly silly, but I assumed the problems would be in OTA syncing of contacts (Outlook --> Gmail account --> Hero) and I haven't even attempted that yet!
Many thanks for your help, in advance.
Hi Bigbamboo5
I am trying out an application / service called GooSync that allows you to have over the air synchronisation of calendar and contacts with your WM device.
I am unsure if there is a "free way" that you can carry out an over the air sync with google to WM devices (without restrictions) but if there is then I would be interested in finding out.
Best wishes
Kaid
Interesting, although their website doesn't show the Hero as being supported. Can you let us know what you think, if you get it working?

Nuevasync
Hi,
You might wanna look into nuevasync.com, it's a free service which I used on my ipod touch before I got my.
Now since I have everything centralized in my google calendar I don't have the need for the service anymore.
Nuevasync was always stable for me and is easy to set up.
Good luck

Well, I also have everything centralised in my Google calendar but I can't seem to get that to sync with my Hero. I should be able to, right? Thank you for your suggestion, by the way...

Yes you should. Mine does - no problem. You should not need to use 3rd party software.

There wasn't really any setup apart from switching the phone on for the first time and giving it my gmail login details. That's all there was to it.
My Hero calendar haven't managed to sync since the 20th august, both mail and contacts have been syncing perfect all alone.....
You can try clearing the data for the calendar on your phone. Go to Menu -> Settings -> Applications -> Manage Applications -> Calendar Storage -> Clear Data. You will obviously lose data but when you open Calendar again, it will re-sync to your Google Calendar. This seems to be the only way to get everything back in order, particularly if you have retroactively added things to your calendar (like anniversaries that originated before the current date that you have just added), or your Google Calendar wasn't active before you set up your phone. It means for the time being, the safest thing is to store all events in your Google Calendar and not in the local "My Calendar" until someone builds a better syncing mechanism with the current application.

is syncing to your calendar in your syncing options activated? to me this looks like the calender option isn't checked.
i had the strage occurance once, that somehow syncing my contacts was deactivated automatically. i just activated it again and it worked.
That seemed to kick everything back into action again. Thanks

[SOLVED] Gmail not syncing anymore

I just noticed a few days ago that GMail isn't syncing with my phone anymore. I send myself an email just to check and it never showed any notification untill I manually entered the application and updated. Of course, I'd ran this test before and it worked flawlessly. I really need this to work because I use my email a lot for work purposes.
I'm currently on CM-5.0.3.1, ERE36B. I don't really know what may have happened. Configuration to receive notifications apparently is ok. As far as I know the only thing that may have changed is the number of apps. Can there be some kind of interference between some app and GMail sync? Come on it's the Google Phone, if GMail can't work we've got a problem...
Any help will be GREATLY appreciated.
Go into: Settings, Applications, Manage Applications, Filter - ALL, find GMAIL and GMAIL Storage, clear data for both.
Solved! Thanks!
Hi !
Used to get these issues too on my HTC Magic (G2). Nothing wrong with my N1, but this morning, no sync (last sync seven hours ago...).
Turned everything down then restarted and it worked again.
Do you often get that? Is it a google-related issue ?

Help: Evo not syncing GMAIL

Hey,
I have had my Evo for a week or so now, and LOVE IT. For some reason it all the sudden has quit syncing my Gmail Emails. If I manually open my Gmail account, and click Refresh under Menu, it will download the new emails. Other than this, its not syncing them.
I have double checked under the Sync Settings in the Settings area, and they are all set to sync.
What have I done, or not done to make this happen?
Thanks,
Bryan

Mine started doing the same thing today. Have you rooted/flashed a new Rom? I am rooted and running Fresh .3.
Stock rom, but I have run Unrevoked Root program. Thats all I have other than the stock rom, and a ton of programs.
Bryan
I noticed this today as well. I thought it was just me! It seems to happen regardless of whether I'm on 3G or Wi-Fi. I'm running stock 2.1; no root. It worked perfectly from day one, and I only noticed it today. For some reason, I don't think the phone is syncing with the Google... or GMail isn't pushing it out to the Evo.
Yeah, same here. Tried playing with various settings - was syncing this morning, then quit around 10:30-ish. I'm assuming it's something on the backend and not a problem with the phones.
Yea, I am thinking the same thing, something with the Gmail Servers, if I am not the only one having the problem.
Figured it might have been something that I had installed, but I guess not.
Maybe a google techy will figure it out for us.

yep, same here. not worried about it, it'll be back
I'm glad we got this thread started. I was beginning to think I was going crazy, or my phone was at least. The last thing we need is another "problem" occurring with our phones.
Is it ok that knowing you all have the same problem makes me feel better? haha
I also noticed that my Google Account (Menu>Settings>Accounts & Sync>Google) hasn't updated in a few hours since giving it time to "work itself out." I know that if I update it manually, it'll push the Gmail through, but I don't understand why the Google sync would just stop updating on its own.
Just giving an update.
Didn't seem to get Gmail to sync today. I don't know whether this problem is isolated to a select few of us but I wanted to fix this and just resorted to resetting Gmail. I followed the instructions here, and it's been working as it should for the past few hours... I hope it lasts...
Directions: (Edit, I'm unable to post links so here are the instructions)...
Troubleshooting: Problems with sync
On Android devices, the Gmail application is automatically synced with the Gmail server, and vice versa. If you experience problems with syncing, try clearing your device's Gmail application data and doing a fresh sync with the server.
Just follow these steps:
1. Press your device's < Home > button, then press < Menu >.
2. Select Settings.
3. Select Applications, then Manage applications.
4. Select Gmail Storage.
Note: If you don't see 'Gmail Storage,' press < Menu > again, then select Filter > All.
5. Select Clear data. Answer OK when prompted.
6. Return to the list of applications by pressing the < Back > button on your device.
7. Select Gmail and then select Clear data. Answer OK when prompted.
To restart your device, press and hold the < Power > or < End call > button, then select Power off. Press the < Power > or < End call > button to power on.
Your device will re-sync with the server after restarting (this may take several minutes).
If the above steps don't resolve the issue, check to see if you have any account notifications on your device.
Press your device's < Home > button, then press < Menu >. Select Notifications. If you have any system notifications about a sign-in or password error, you should make sure your account information is correct in order for Gmail to sync.

I did the same thing and mine started working fine last night also.
Still working today.
Bryan
Had the same problem. I had two Gmail accounts syncing. I tried the fix above but it did not work. I removed the 2nd Gmail and did it again and then it worked. Not sure why. Wanted to post this if anyone had the problem that was not being fixed to try deleting multiple Gmail accounts.
Google Not Pushing to HTC EVO
Hey guys,
I wanted to state the fact that I am having the same problems and thought that I would get it out there.
I originally had 11 email accounts syncing with my device, and all were flawlessly pushing the mail to me as it came thought Google's servers. I have noticed that over the past few days that I have had to do this syncing manually by going into the app and pressing refresh.
I am deleting all my email accounts except the main two and forwarding all the others to the main email account.
Here is the kicker... I also have Google Voice and it has stopped syncing the text messages to me as well. I just now received a text from my sister that she sent yesterday. (Just arrived as I am typing this and it is timestamped for yesterday.)
I am testing this out to see if deleting 9 email accounts, deleting the Gmail storage through the application settings menu, and rebooting my device will help.
I do also want to add: I am utilizing the Task Killer application. I have enabled in the settings the option of viewing all of the background tasks. I have ignored everything that says Google on it, Gmail, or has the words sync in it. (Before it was killing all the apps and background tasks things.) I am on the Stock 2.1 rom and I am not rooted with my HTC EVO.
I am going to see if this works - and if it doesn't you will hear back from me.
Good luck to the rest of you guys out there experiencing the same problems with your Sprint EVO. (I still love the device and hope this is a minor bug...)
Update: Right now everything is working correctly... We will see tomorrow. Good luck guys and gals.

i started having gmail sync issues this morning. around the same time i turned off calendar sync to see how much it improved battery life.
although the box is still checked to sync, i've had to manually sync gmail all day.
i guess the next step is to re-enable calendar sync and see if that fixes it.
I've had problems with gmail auto syncing as well. This is what I've found gets things back in order..
clearing data for the gmail apps, I also clear data for the other google apps just to be safe.
Then I go into gmail and set settings>labels>inbox to "sync all"
I also learned that shutting down gtalk also breaks gmail auto sync, not signing out, stopping the app. I had sartup auditor set to prevent gtalk from starting on boot, when I let it start up on boot my gmail sync's just fine.

You are not alone. I have a friend with a BlackBerry storm from ATT which stopped syncing about the same time. It could be a problem at their end.
Still syncing today!

Mine stopped syncing yesterday around 2p mountain time, reset the phone, pulled the battery several times nothing helped. Set up a new gmail acct through the phone, that worked fine, but my original just would not sync. So I pull the battery, and pulled the sd card. Then I put it all back together and it started working. I dont know if it was coincidence or not. But yall might want to try pulling the SD card before going through a reset.

[Q] Contacts not syncing on new flash ***SOLVED***

*****SOLVED******
By recommendation of another member, I cleared data from 'contacts Storage' and 'People' and now its working perfectly!
I just flashed the newest Sprint Lovers ROM, and my contacts wont sync. I get the "Sync is currently experiencing problems. It will be back shortly" message. This has been for the last 5 hours. Maybe sync really is down? My email syncs fine, all my data works (market updates, internet) and have tried on WiFi also. I have also updated my profile succesfully.
Is it down for anyone else or any ideas?
edit: I have also tried unchecking the sync box in the accounts and sync menu, rebooting, and re-checking the box. No worky.
edit2: Well now it synced with no error, however, it shows last sync time as 1230pm today (6 1/2 hours ago when I flashed) and contacts didnt load. This is very bizzare.
Well I ended up just creating a vcard from my gmail account and importing. Although my sync this morning doesnt show the same error, it still shows last sync was yesterday.
I dunno.
edit: I just created a test contact and synced to see if it would add it to my gmail contacts when I log in online...now it gives me the error, and it didnt sync. Im perplexed.

2 Problems, please help

I am having problem regarding my screen wake up. It wakes up from time to time automatically. I installed Wakelock Detector to track the app and found out Window manager has woken up the screen. How to disable it?
Another problem I have is callendar sync.
From time to time after restart my calendar sync disappears, I have no callendar at all and there is no ability to sync it in settings -> accounts -> google -> callendar simply becouse, IT DISSAPPEARS!!! After restar everything comes back to normal for few hours or to next restart....
HELP!!!
I have figured out what wakes phone... It was battery manager which draineg my battery... sic...
About the second problem, I can add that deleting google account and re-adding it also gives me back option to sync calendar for few hours...
Do not use unnecessary apps, unless it requires for purpose. Stock apps are enough according to me. These all are just fashionable, no real purpose. Some rungs in background and keeps ram and drains battery.
About the calendar/splaner app: again look for any aftermarket apps if anything causing this. remove if any apps for sync automated etc. From account uncheck google calendar sync or turn off Sync from notification then Go to apps > all apps and find the splanner and clear all data including cache memory. (If you have only google calendar, contact birthdays data then no probs, but all manual events will be gone.) After clearing restart the phone and again check calendar from account or enable sync. Let it sync or do a manual google sync and then check. check once and again restart the phone and then check again.
If this solve then fine otherwise do a factory reset or do a hard reset by holding power+home+vol button. Its clearly a app related issue.
