My People pictures/contacts/information are syncing properly...sort of.
I have it checked to only sync contacts of those I already have in my phone, but people still show up when I'm composing an email or message in the auto-complete? Intended?
Also, in settings for email & accounts the Facebook one always says, "Attention required". But everything still seems to be quite up to date?
Thanks!

Hey all,
I've been having some problems with POP3 and gmail on my TyTN/8525. That problem being: it doesn't work anymore. It worked great for about a week, then just stopped working for no apparent reason. I didn't change any of my gmail settings during this time.
After it stopped working, I randomly got 5 of the 100+ e-mails that I was suppsoed to get. Gmail is receiving them fine and I can see them when I login to gmail, they just don't get downloaded when my phone pops it. I can send e-mail through gmail's pop fine.
Anyone have a clue what my problem might be?
Thanks,
Todd

Which wireless provider?
Have you tried deleting the Gmail account on the TyTn and then re-adding it?
Can you POP3 access it from you'r home computer etc (to make sure it is not a Gmail issue)?
If these do not help post you're setup so we can take a look
I think the problem seems to stem from the fact that Gmail breaks down your messages in groups, like around 300 or so messages at a time. On top of that, Pocket IE doesn't download the full messages by default and, as such, leaves a copy of the messages on the server. I think when this happens, Gmail doesn't prepare the next "group" of messages to send to you. Also, Pocket IE, by default, is set to show only messages from the last 3 days, so even though it may have downloaded a bunch of messages, you'll only see the ones that are 3 days old or less. You'll want to uncheck that option.
Try setting up your account as you normally would in the desktop mail app of your choice, Outlook Express for example. Make sure it isn't set to leave a copy of the messages on the server. If Outlook Express didn't download the first group of messages, make sure to do a manual send and receive. That will hopefully tell Gmail to prepare your next group of messages. Alternate Send/Receives with your phone and Gmail until you get to your most recent messages. Also, try putting recent in front of your user name, IE, "recent:[email protected]" instead of just your user name/e-mail address.
i find with gmail that it stops working every few weeks and i have to go into gmail on my pc and re-check the Get all pop email from now, ( it seems there are too many emails to be sent down )
using the "recent:" prefix before your login in your outlook username should fix this.

How did you get them to sync? I am still unable to sync my Facebook contacts. Setup up the sync just like on other android phones. Thanks.
I have noticed that this phone has some issues with syncing info from facebook and twitter at times. The best way to confirm this is to go to your "accounts & sync" settings and see if any accounts have failed to sync. There is another issue which could be happening. Depending on how your individual contacts have set up their facebook privacy settings, you may or may not be able to see their info. Since facebook's recent security debacle, they have included a lockdown option for all applications and websites. Many facebook users have since opted not to allow any external apps to use their info. If that is the case with one of your contacts, you will not be able to see their stuff using your contacts no matter how you've set it up. So it's completely dependant on how your friends set up their privacy in facebook. This is why you may notice you can see some peoples photos and not their status updates or visa versa. If you have not allowed facebook to use external apps and websites in your own facebook account, you will not be able to sync your phone with facebook at all. Go to the facebook website and make sure you have allowed use of platform applications in your privacy settings. Sorry for the long reply but there are a few factors working together here. good luck.
Hi All
I have a Milestone 2 and have set this up so that it syncs my Hotmail (via corporate sync) and yahoo accounts. The hotmail account also syncs my contacts and calendar.
I noticed that random contacts would dissapear from my contacts list or that some would have part of their details removed (like phone numbers). On my hotmail account and outlook the contacts are still all there and fine and it is just my phone. I spoke to Motorola who told me to do a hard reset. I did this but still have the same issue. Now they want me to send the phone to them for 2 weeks. I dont see why this is needed as its obviously a software fault that they need to fix. Any ideas on how I can solve this?
I was thinking of not using motoblur and using another app to do the EAS for the hotmail account. Is this possible?
I also have some other issues I have listed below:
If set to automatic the weather widget always shows I am in Lyonsdown (unless I set it to manual and London - then it shows my local weather for London). But I want it to work out where I am wirelessly so when I move around I get the current weather where I am and not for Lyonsdown all the time.
Facebook errors all the time saying my password is wrong yet it still seems to sync OK with facebook. I have removed facebook for now as I am fed up with it asking me to continuously enter a correct password.
If I log into motoblur to locate my phone it never works and it also shows the wrong phone number for my phone.
Thanks in advance for any help.
is anyone else having trouble with multiple gmail accounts?
i get all my notifications instantly, like normal, for my first gmail account. but nothing gets pushed to my second one. if i go into the inbox and refresh it, then it works fine

thanks
Hi Guys,
I have a few email accounts setup on my phone, mostly Gmail, all with the same settings and setup with IMAP. Somehow most of the accounts work fine, but two of them seem to function more like a POP3 account. If I delete or mark the email as read from my phone, the change will update on the server and my computer. If I go the other way though and read or delete from my computer, the change will not reflect on my phone. Because of this most of my accounts show only a few unread emails, and two of them show 50 unread. Has anyone had a similar issue, and are there any thoughts to solve this?
I've tried deleting and adding the account again on my phone, and going through all the settings Gmail on working and nonworking accounts to compare. I'm using the stock email app on the Alliance KK Rom. Thanks,
Nila
