I got my phone to repairs because of a broken touchscreen.. Nicely done by HTC, they came to pick it up and returned a new unit a week later. Very good service...
However, now there's something strange going on.. I've reconfigured the Exchange mobile sync part with OWA server and all. Now everything (Mail and Contacts) is synchronizing nicely, except my Calendar??
When Calendar is being synced, you can see it tries 3 times and then a "cannot connect to server" error.. This seems odd, because for contacts and mail it connects perfectly to the exact same server...
I tried to configure it on 2 firmware versions, the original and the rooted Modaco rom, no change.
Is there some logging going on where I maybe can pinpoint the problem??
Out of the blue it works again

Hi,
After an upgrade (No2Chem 3.49 Radio 3.42.40) everything works really great!!! Except, I am having an issue with ActiveSync.
Intermittently, (sometimes every 3 seconds, sometimes every 10 minutes), a blank window covers the whole screen with a title of "ActiveSync" and an "ok" in the upper right corner. If I click ok, the ActiveSync main window appears. I believe everytime this happens, it is resending all of the email in my outbox and the message never gets removed from the outbox even though it is delivered to the recipient.
ActiveSync works fine with PC via USB and for all features besides the email. Also, SMS and Gmail correctly clear the inbox and send only the single email (this is what makes me think it is the ActiveSync).
TIA,
Brian.
I have seen that with the MR1 ROM while ActiveSync is doing its first sync with a large mailbox. (I've got a couple thousand messages from the past month that sync via Exchange.)
I've noticed intermittantly unreliable behavior of the Exchange mail client while it's still cranking away at the initial sync (failing to set message read flags server-side, to be specific).
Regardless, though, things worked fine for me after ActiveSync finished the big initial sync run.
Thanks Skywing,
That doesn't appear to be the case. I only have ~20 emails trying to sync. I did try re-flashing as well as reinstalling AS to no avail.
FYI to all --
I did just come across this thread on MS Mobile support forums...

It appears that this is an issue with Exchange 2007 and WM6.1. It looks like there is a hotfix that needs to be installed on the server side (which I don't have control over). There is a chance this isn't the issue, but it certainly sounds like all of the same symptoms. Unfortunately, there is no apparent client-side fix.

So I've been having a gmail sync issue for a few days now, don't know why. I'm running rooted stock with the black gloss theme. When I connect to WiFi I get gmail no problem butover tmo data I have to manually sync it. I did the clear data thing, same issue.
I see this too. Don't know if there is a workaround but it does seem strange that it acts this way. What if you don't have WiFi?
The thing that bothers me even more is the GMail doesn't allow you to Copy text??? This is weird considering Google made both GMail and Android. I understand that issue will be resolved with Froyo though.
Let us know if anyone knows how to allow for the updating of Gmail without WiFi.
I have a similar problem. My Gmail will sync randomly on 3g and syncs perfectly fine on wifi.
I have no problem getting or sending email, but if i change the "label" and move it to another folder, it will only move it on my phone, if i go to gmail on the computer the stuff will still be in my inbox.
I'm using Corporate Sync for my work email, coming from an Exchange Server (2003 I think). I can set it up, connect and sync fine for 1-5 days, then I get a connection error and the only way to resolve is to remove the account and add it back in.
Things I have tried:
-upper and lower case for domain name (have read some places that think it is case sensitive)
-checking and unchecking the "verify certificates" box
-factory data reset
-clearing the email app data (from Manage Applications) after I remove the account, before I add it back in
I know there are other people at my company that use Android and iOS devices and they do no have this issue, but no one else that has an Atrix.
Any thoughts? I'm rooted and about to jump on a ROM if there is a sliver of chance GB might help out, but I need my email and calendar to be up to date for work (part job requirement, part me being a little OCD).
Thanks.
I just switched to a Galaxy S3 from an Desire HD. Overall I'm not very happy.
One issue that is turning into a deal breaker is the BT connection with the car. I have been unable to make the S3 connect automatically with my Nissan Connect and it is a laborious process to establish a full phone and media connection.
This is what happens,
The pairing process goes well I get a a full media and phone connection. After about 30 secs the connection is dropped.
I reestablish the connection manually and I only get media audio no phone. I cancel the connection manually and reestablish the connection and there I get both media and phone audio.
If I turn off the car and turn it on again I have to go through the whole manual connection sequence again, without the pairing.
I have installed A2DP Volume app but it did not fix the problem.
This is very frustrating since my Desire HD worked flawlessly when connecting to the car.
Anyone have any tips or experiencing similar problems?
this exactly happens to me as well. i was on the stock XALE8, but upgraded to ALF5 and nothing new. this is frustrating because it happens to my car, and multiple bluetooth headsets.
Bluetooth working fine for me and my Fiat

Right I might know the answer to this as I had the same problem as few weeks ago.
If you have Facebook, twitter, whatsapp or anything like this best thing is to get rid of them if you don't want to, go to your accounts and sync on your phone and untick the sync with contacts on any of the apps you have installed.
Then go to call log and clear your call history.
Delete the bluetooth pairing turn the phone off and back on, repair with the car, mine has worked perfectly since I did this.

So from what you describe the problem lies in the syncing of the phone contacts with the car contacts. Maybe since it also tries to sync the FB contacts there is something in the format there that it does not recognize and it gets hung up.
Will need to try different sync configurations to see what happens.

I've got the same problem with my S3 not syncing with my car kit. The bluetooth is all paired but the car still says no phone. Tried unpairing and just about everything else with no luck at all. Any other thoughts please?
Mine works fine with the Toyota Touch & Go thingy. I only sync contacts from my Google account to the phone though, I don't bother with the ones from FB, etc

Hi there. Following up on this thread, I've had a similar issue with the miss's Galaxy S3 mini (android 4.1) and the Nissan Connect System on her Juke. It also happened with a HTC Status (ChaCha, android 2.3), so I can't narrow it down to a particular Android version or phone manufacturer. What happened was, both devices paired well with Nissan Connect, but after a short while, the system crashed completely (the cars, not the phone) :s. It would restart automatically, but just to crash again after re-pairing. With older devices, this issue never occurred.
After reading Motogp1s answer, I decided to give it a shot. Unpaired all devices, cleared the system on the nissan. On the S3 mini cleared the call history, and disabled all contact sync from facebook, google, etc. Re-paired the device, disabling the multimedia functions (she just wants the phone features) on the paired device settings (NISSAN CONNECT on the S3). Refused to give permission tho the car to retrieve call and contact information. At this point, the bluetooth connection would work without a glitch, never had a crash or problem again.
Like RaulTT said, the problem seems to be in the amount of information Android devices keep on their contact list (and can also be related to the amount of contacts, or the multimedia features in the case of Android 4). But given the sweetness of having your contacts also on the car, I think the best approach is to keep a short list of your most important contacts on the SIM card, and try to sync only that list. If you must go with the phone's list, you should indeed disable all contact sync from 3rd apps, plus limit the size of your contact list, and also be aware for special characters on the contacts names (in case of latin languages, p.e).
Thanks for the help.
Hey guys,
I wonder if any of you has the same issue as me.. Basically, when phone is connected via WiFi it barely syncs Gmail/Facebook twice a day, I can go for hours without seeing a new email notification on the phone.. When it's on Data/3G it syncs properly and I'm getting a notification as soon as the email comes in.. I've checked everything on the phone, and I can't seem to find anything which would explain this behavior.. Currently I had to set Keep Wi-Fi on during sleep to never in order to have sync working properly when I'm at home..
Btw. stock ROM, haven't touched anything since I've purchased it.
Any ideas?

Do you notice any other internet connection irregularities when on wifi? e.g. after a deep sleep if you try the browser it fails to load the page straight away and takes a refresh?
No, after I wake up the phone when it's on wifi during sleep - internet works fine.. Ie. I can load websites in the browser, open up Google Play, lookup Imdb from the application etc. Everything is working fine apart from the phone syncing my mails and everything else while it's on Wifi/Sleeping. Checking the last time it synced in Settings >> Accounts and sync also shows that it synced last time hours ago (it didn't even try to sync while it's on wifi).
Can someone please test this if it happens on other phones as well?
