lost accounts and sync - Captivate General

Just noticed that I have mysteriously lost the ability to sync my account. I had it there last night before I went to sleep, and now it is gone? Has anyone else had this problem? I know I haven't uninstalled anything between then and now.

[Q] Gmail Android Sync

I've been searching for a real answer to this question high and low... and yet the answer doesn't seem sufficient.
I am using the stock Gmail app (2.2). I'm trying to get push emails -- but it doesn't push, mostly because it doesn't seem that my account syncs very often even with auto-sync turned on. For example, I went to the Account window at 2:58pm, and it said the last sync was at 2:33pm, so I wasn't getting "push" email in the interim at all.
How do I consistently ensure that my Gmails arrive regularly and avoid this sync issue that obviously isn't a real "push"? I can't be getting emails on my phone 25 minutes after they're sent. And there's no way to set the frequency apparently, at least not with the Gmail app.
So does the lack of response mean that nobody knows the answer? Surely I can't be the only one this is affecting.
You are not alone ;-)
I am having the same issues today, (I flashed and unofficial version of gingerbread on my Desire yesterday)
With Android 2.2, I had no problems, I have no idea what the sync frequency was, but it seemed adequate. With Android 2.3, I am having the same kind of issues. My laptop knows I have new mail, but my phone doesn't.
If it is not possible to find out or update the sync frequency, then there are some gmail notifier apps in the market which may provide an acceptable solution.
Interesting, this was a problem for me always (2.1 and now 2.2). I thought it was attributed to the internal Android sync which seems to me to occur every 30 minutes (even though the "auto sync" checkbox should mean a little more frequently, no)?
What Gmail notifier apps would you recommend, and do they bypass the internal "Accounts and sync" settings? That's not the ideal solution at all, but I'll take it if it means my Android will check emails more frequently -- like as they arrive.
Hi,
I had the same problem after flashing CM7.
Under menu, accounts (Were you can see all accounts you sync with) press on Gmail account. There you need check if everything is activated.
On my phone the checkbox for sync gmail was missed. Contacts and calender where checked

Gmail is checked for me. My settings are correct. Like I said before, it's syncing every 30 minutes. That's not acceptable if my emails are really "push" as this doesn't seem like "push" to me.

Possibly a stupid question, but, on your main accounts and sync page, do you have "background data" checked? I have that checked and auto-sync checked and I get my G-Mail on my phone about 10 seconds after I get it on my desktop. Just asking because I don't see that mentioned anywhere here. BTW--I am running CM7.
I have Background data, and Auto-sync both ticked. I have now been waiting several hours for emails (that I know are waiting) to appear - they haven't, so I'm not even getting 30 minute responses.
The "Sync all" button has no effect either, so I guess that my problem is different
That is using 2 gmail accounts, both correctly setup - in theory.
OK, my problem is fixed. I switched off auto-sync, then I was able to manually sync everything: mail,calendar,contacts,books. I then switched auto sync back on, and now I am being notified of email from all sources in 2-3 minutes.
Yup, Background data is on. maersi - this might be my issue. Trying it and will see what happens.

Anyone having problems with accounts sync'ing getting stuck/failing?

All,
On 1.18 update for about 10-14 days now. Recently experienced syncing problems whereby most of the sync'able items from my accounts have the circular-arrows-sync icon next to the check box when I view the accounts & sync page, and they are not syncing. Weirdly, one or two *are* syncing (well the date/time says they are!).
Was at a loss (no "clear cache" button available in gmail) - had to revert to my N1! (which was working OK btw). So figured I didn't have anything to lose and did a "Clear data" on gmail. Syncing started OK again. WEIRD, as my Exchange ActiveSync started working too!
Three days later and i have the same problem.
Anyone else? Any permanent fixes?

Just switched my email client to K9 and sync issues appear to have dissapeared.
I think this could be related to amount of internal memory space left; i've uninstalled and deleted some bits so we'll see over next few days...

Sensation not Auto Syncing?

My sensation will not autosync, the only way it will is by me forcing it to via the AutoSync widget. It will not grab my email or Google voice texts unless I forcefully do so. I have background data and autosync checked in the accounts and sync section in the settings menu as well. Does anyone have any idea how to fix this? I have done a factory restore as well and I have the same issue. It worked fine before now it never does.

HI
I have the same problem, just like you i enabled everything, but no auto sync. it was syncing till last night. this morning it auto sync does not work any more. Hope someone can help
Weird, so it wasn't only me. Yeah I turned my phone on yesterday morning and my Weather Lock Screen said "No Weather Data" or something like that and noticed none of my calendars, email accounts, or news were updating. I rebooted and removed battery no luck.
I was able to fix it when I went to Settings > Accounts & Sync and noticed that "Auto-Sync" and "Background Data" were unchecked. Checked them both and everything was fine. Unsure as to why it's not working for you guys. Still working as of today.
My sensation have no problems with autosync, i just configure my differents email account, and my agenda and email are sync perfectly.
When i went to Settings > Accounts & Sync and noticed that "Auto-Sync" and "Background Data" were checked.
I have had this happen and found it to be a result of the temp root methods used. Well, at least since I haven't rooted again, it hasn't happened again. So are you temp rooted? If so reboot a couple times and see if it works after that with out re rooting. If so, it may just be the price of the temp root. Really the only thing temp root got me was backup and adfree, which I can live without to be honest.
I have the exact same problem. It syncs whenever it wants to. I have to manually sync it. Everything that is supposed to be checked is checked. I am not temp rooted or rooted
I hope for you and other people who have this mistake, a update will correct it.
I have the same problem on my XE ... It just stops syncing from time to time.

Secondary Hotmail syncing even though it's set to "manual"

Anyone else having this happen?
I have two hotmail accounts. One has my gamertag and is just my first and last name. That one's fine.
The second is my slush account which I use for forums, sign ups, etc. I have it set to Manual sync, yet it always syncs on its own. I just checked and it says "synced 17 mins ago". Anyone have an idea why it is doing that?
I have conversations turned off, and definitely set to "manual". I even set it to download email from "anytime", as I was thinking that possibly if it was set to "last 7 days" that it would auto-sync to keep it updated to email from the last 7 days?
Also, even though it's set to get email from "anytime" (which means in my other Hotmail that it grabs pretty much all of it), it still is only displaying the last week or so's worth.
I suppose I'll just delete it from my phone, then re-add it. But just wondering if anyone is familiar with this issue?
/LG Quantum with forced Mango in Ontario. Drivers as well.
I had the opposite problem, where I had the email set to sync every 15 min, and it had to be manually updated. It still showed the proper amount of emails though, since I had it set for last 7 days. I just ended up removing and re-adding the account.

[Q] data usage and calendar

Hi Everyone, I search everywhere and couldnt find an answer for this. So here goes.
Calendar
I was syncing and unsyncing with my samsung to google calendars, then the next day I checked, I realized all my events disappeared.
I did not erase anything yet all my events were gone.
I did notice that something was occurring during the period that I lost my data.
I saw that my default Samsung browser on my smart phone went on a refresh loop on google home page. This was an issue on googles end and was resolved eventually.
This was one of google's problems. There would be an issue with google recognizing me logging on the google home page and gmail. This lasted for a week. I wonder if that caused my data to disappear?
There are a few links below describing what happened. I'm wondering if this is an issue with Google, samsung+google, or syncing in general.
if I can recover my lost events that would be great!
It seems like a lot of them has to do with smartphones syncing, which is what I did. Even if there isn’t a solution or a recovery for this, it would be great to at least get an understanding as to why this happened (so i can avoid it in the future). I am currently storing everything local to my phone and havne’t experienced any loss of information. It’s quite disconcerting that if I did use google calendars, at any moment, all my events can go missing.

DATA
My data usage resets either randomly (before the cycles) or there is a delay on applying cycles? My data usage basically self erased leaving the charts to show nothing and the apps still ahve the data used.
1)
I realized that the data was still there until I started to sync with my TiBu to dropbox/google drive. Then my data went to 0 on the charts.
I was still able to see the data used per app, but nothing shows on the charts.
Although it may not be accurate I use this feature a lot. I would just like to know what makes it reset on its own?
My cycle is on the 2nd of each month and I lost it on the 15th.
2)
Another issue is the vertical lines that shows you data used on each time period. I would like it to default to my cycle (so i dont have to readjust everytime) Does anyone know how to do this?
Thinking back.......I think I did have my cycle set as the 15th, but that was changed a long time ago.
Could it be possible that the change only takes effect after the cycle is complete?
For example
Jan 1, 2000. I set my cycle to the 10th of every month.
Jan 2, 2000 I change it to 25th of every month.
I think it will still reset on the 10th?
Thanks everyone!!!
Bump
