[Q] auto sync not working on ICS 6.5.1 (Mikes ROM)

i've had pretty much every single one of Mikes ICS roms on my Sensation and never really had any problems until now. ever since installing 6.5 the autosync function does not seem to work and i have to turn it off and back on in order for the set stuff to refresh (mainly gmail). i;ve gone through settings a million times and just cant seeem to sort it, any ideas??

Hi,
Two things worth trying.
Clear cache and data in gmail.
Delete your account,reboot,and re-install it.

very late reply, but managed to sort this in the end, it was due to Titanium backup, i was restoring everything after a firmware change and in that was an old sync app that wouldnt work, superwipe and restore just the apps.

Email exchange issues

Hi all,
Just got the nexus 5 and live everything about it except one thing, the email app. I can't tell if it's exchange services or the app itself, but "unfortunately email has stopped" keeps popping up randomly and will not stop. Another wrote thing is that the so manager will not let me wipe data (screenshot). Things I tried:
*rebooting
*deleting the apk through titanium, wiping data and reinstalling
Any ideas? I really need exchange email for work and it's driving me crazy.

Seems you screwed up something with titanium so do a factory reset and flash back to stock and test it out then and see if it all works fine. After that then do some changes slowly to see if it comes back again to narrow it down?

I have this problem with my Nexus 5 as well. It's been this way since I got it. Really, really annoying. This has been an ongoing problem for a while. I wish there was a fix....

I just wiped, flashed factory image and factory reset the phone and still getting these crashes and it is still not letting me wipe data from the app manager...
Any other suggestions? Right now, I'm going to try to delete the exchange accounts but it's not even letting me delete accounts!! I'm going to try to switch to ART to see if that helps at all, and will give an update.
Any other email clients for android that support exchange?? I'm lost at this point and I really tried everything I know before posting.

This is total stock? As if factory image?

I don't think there's much you can do to fix the problem. There are a lot of people in the same boat. If you search Google, there are several posts about the same issue. Last time I checked, there's no fix.

Yeah, factory image and it still didn't work.
I just ended up flashing twrp and cataclysm ROM and that fixed it.

I'm using Touchdown (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.nitrodesk.droid20.nitroid) from Nitrodesk.
Works perfect for my needs
Had battery drain issues with the stock exchange app, so I switched to Touchdown
Hope this helps for you as well
EDIT:
Just read your later post that you switched ROM
cheers

I m experiencing another issue..!!
I get couldnt sign-in error!!
Any solutions for this!!
Dont frget to press the THANK button!!!

Just an update, the new ROM solution was working for a few hours but starting to have issues again with "unfortunately email app has stopped working" errors.
I think it has to be how my exchage accounts are setup:
- One gmail account on IMAP
- 3 Exchange accounts on push notifications and sync all mails
Outside of that setup, nothing special. Anyone experiencing the same?

One last update (unless it creeps up again). I switched the syncing of emails to date back 30 days instead of "All" and that fixed the "unfortunately email has stopped" messages completely. The HTC One email client never had that issue so I assumed that wasn't the problem but I guess the email client on this phone is a bit more sensitive.

Ok, the problem crept back up again... the error message keeps coming back, and in the app manager, the "clear data" button is greyed out so you can't even start over unless you remove all the accounts.
I would like to ask anyone that has working exchange accounts (multiple) on the native email client share their setup and the app versions etc.

Massive app crashes, phone unusable

Hi,
My girlfriend has the moto g and since this morning it's unusable: every second comes a crash message that a app fc. All apps belonging to Google (YouTube, calendar...) are crashing and especially the launcher. It's just possible to go to settings via quick toggles. But I can't delete any data etc from apps. And it won't accept any changes to any settings. I can't open any app because the launcher doesn't work...
The problem: it's an unrooted, totally stock phone with just a few apps (whatsapp, chronus...) . Now I wanted to ask if anyone can help and maybe knows this problem and how to fix it. And: I can't connect it to the PC (win7). Anyone has a link and a description to install the USB drivers? I tried all the "normal" ways with Motorola device manager and manually install USB drivers. I want to backup the messages and pictures before I try a factory reset. I rebooted it in secure mode, but all the problems still exist...
I hope anyone can help... Thanks in advance!

I want the moderator to ban me.

If it always crashes how would you be able to back up SMS and picture? Try to go to the store you bought your phone or call your tech support. But if nothing happens you just need to factory reset your phone.

If it connects to the pc, you can easily make a backup of these things. The Problem is that it doesn't connect because i have problems finding the correct usb driver.

alikpronoy said:
As much as we want to, but I think, there's no way to back it up. You just need to factory reset it.

Already tried a factory reset - doesn't work. Can't even boot into recovery... Now it's sent back to Motorola I would love to know what happened there on a complete stock phone with just a very few apps and just used for messaging, calls and photos. I hope Motorola says what went wrong when the phone is repaired.

Try to uninstal apps and try instal again.Maybe not completed installed before.

My girlfriends phone started doing the exact same thing this morning, what was the outcome? Did they replace the phone?

Google Data Back Up is not backing up my current data.

During the new phone setup in Lollipop, after flashed new rom, there is an option to restore old settings. Mine said that the last setting it back up is 27 days old. In the last few weeks i've flashed various roms and have setup my device as "new". For some reason it is not updating and backup my current settings and apps.
The 27 days backup settings have apps and settings that i no longer want to use. I like flashing new roms so it be nice to have settings and app back up current. I have tried various things to try to get my phone to update the settings with google but it is not working. Is there a way to force the phone to back up my current setting to google?
Thanks.
EDIT: If the back up is working for you, can you guy let us know so we have more info to troubleshoot the problem

I dont think this would be relate to the 10 devices limit. Wouldnt make sense if that is the case.

No, but a couple others have had the exact same problem.

I've been having the exact same issue.

I just went into the settings/backup option and clicked to turn off auto backups. It says it will also delete all backups on the servers. Hopefully next clean flash on set up it will show no backups and then I can turn it back on and thing will work from there.

Let us know how it goes.....

Did a clean flash this morning and my old backups were still there even though the pop up said they world be deleted. Instead of setting up as new I used the last backup from 28 days ago. Maybe the next clean flash it will update the data.
This is very frustrating.

Same here is there a way to Fix it

Yes, and this problem isn't Nexus 5 specific! What the hell is Google doing there? We need this feature. On my opinion, they can delete the old ones, so there is space for the latest. Oh well, Google....

Just did another clean flash after choosing an older backup to continue from. It did not work and did not backup any of my old settings.
I guess Google thinks we should only have 10 backups for infinity and after that we're screwed? Maybe they hope we will setup new accounts? I know this will only really affect tech enthusiasts but come on man.

I tested flashed as well. Turned off the back up option for a few days and flashed stocked 5.0 and setup new device., run for a few days, and flashed CM12, still no new back up choice.
When you guy select the backup to restore, how many choices do you have? I only have one and it is about 34 days old. I dont think google would limit it to 10, maybe they just turn off that feature for now???
Hopefully other people can chime in as well. Let us know if the back up is working for you.

I have only ten choices to choose from.
I've been searching for a fix for a week or two now and can't find anything that works. I can't even find good contact info to directly email Google and get the old backups erased.

I'm on an AOSP Lollipop rom on my Galaxy S5, and having same problem (still!)...
This really sux when doing a fresh install every couple of days...
Any news on this?

How can we fix this???

Weird. I just made a new install. And for the first time in a month I could choose a device from today! Yay!

You could always chose to setup as a new device, just click on the drop down during install and select new device instead of an older back up.
I gave up on finding a fix. My theory is that this is new to lollipop and maybe Google turn off the feature or something. Probably due to bug. I just shelled out money for titanium back up.

Have you tried removing the phone from googles security page? That should reset everything. Disclaimer, I am not having this problem and have not tried tried my tip myself.

Restoring Apps using Titanium Back Up

Since Android 6.0, I have used TB successfully several times to restore apps. For some reason today TB just hangs on restoration. The little symbol keeps spinning. Any suggestions?

Maybe someone can verify that they can restore missing apps to stock ROM using TB and what version of TB & SU they are using. I currently have TB 7.4.0 and SU 2.65.

I've had that problem from time to time. I'm using 7.40 also and I wrote the developer a couple of months ago about that problem. I never got an answer and forgot about it since it doesn't happen that often. I usually go into my apps and force stop TB to get out of it. By any chance it isn't an app on the SD is it? Eventually the app will restore if I play around with it.
Try restoring the app alone without the data then going back and restoring just the data.

Apps are on internal storage, backups are on external storage. Restoring app alone did not work. Reverted TB back to 7.3.0.2 and I can now restore deleted apps.

I reported the repeatable issue to developer including that there is no issue with 7.3.0.2. Got the form e-mail that they will get back within 48 hours. Never heard a word since. Just wish I could disable the playstore notifications of the update to 7.4.
