It seems my phone is no longer syncing normally as expected. GMail doesn't seem to be pushing email and the built-in EMail app isn't notifying me either. Other random apps aren't syncing properly, either. It happens over both 3G & Wi-Fi. Sometimes restarting will fix for a moment as everything gets synced and notifications pop up for G/EMail. Twitter is about the only app that seems to be working properly.
Also GPS constantly stops working. A restart usually will re-enable it but it keeps failing. Opening Maps or other GPS-enabled apps does not get fix (GPS icon never appears). Even the GPS On/Off toggle does nothing most of the time.
I'm running Eclipse 1.3 on a 2.3.4 kernel with the beautiful ICS theme (Email app NOT themed). No settings were ever changed and checked to be set properly. I've even tried wiping Cache/Davik without success. I want to see if there is anything I can do before trying to Wiping/SBF back to 2.3.4 stock and reflashing.

Running Cronos 1.80 with GB 2.3.3 on it
At random intervals the exchange sync will just stop working. No error messages just no email. This problem occurs both on wifi and normal data. I tried killing the email program in task manager, manually starting the sync, changed the settings on the account from push to polling and back. Nothing worked. Rebooted the phone and everything starts syncing again. Data works fine for other apps too when this is happening so it is an issue with mail only.
I used to get this issue with the non gingerbred cronos ROMs occasionally - maybe once every couple weeks. But now it is happening a couple times a day. Annoying when you don't get an error message you just think you haven't gotten any email. Thinking about just going back to Froyo as it didn't seem to have this issue unless someone can recommend a solution.
Hey.
I also noticed the exact same issue.
But i am on an desire with 2.3.4 (GingerVillian 2.4).
To me it happens every couple of days.
I have to reboot my phone to get it working again
Is there a solution out there?
thx

I'm running Calkulin's rom and ever since I installed it, I randomly get the syncing icon in the status bar. It stays there for a while and keeps my tab up when I try to put it to sleep. Big battery drain. I've tried fcing different apps that I thought were the culprit, but nothing seems to work. Is there a way to see what's syncing? Or, does anyone have any ideas what might be going on?
turn your gmail sync off
I was thinking it was gmail too. How do I turn off sync? I've checked the main settings menu, but I don't see under accounts and sync where to do it. This rom uses tnt's menu layout.
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?
It's like one day it decided to crap out. I hadn't changed any settings or installed new apps, was on nottachtrix, and suddenly when the wifi or mobile data are on the phone hangs left and right. Oh and the battery won't charge up properly (hardly at all) when it's in this state; off the charger it runs down to zero in just a few hours. Turn off all connectivity & it works just fine. Wtf?
I've fully fastboot wiped, moved back to a good fruitcake, moved to a good blur 2.3.4 rom, and within 24 hours the glitches slowly return. The fact that wifi works leads me to think software issue not hardware, but I'm at a loss otherwise.

UPDATE: nvm fixed it.
Here's what I found: My stock email app (which was synced to my work email) had somehow gone haywire. Since I only run modified stock roms, and this was a stock app, the issue persisted through every full wipe / reflash I'd gone through.
Symptoms were as described above. "Motorola Services" was eating up ~25% of a given battery charge because it was constantly pinging to sync my contacts -- in the meantime, that process was also taking priority over every other task I tried to do (like view contacts, launch other apps, etc) causing frequent FC errors that would all resolve themselves if I pressed "Wait." If I disabled wifi and 3G, the runaway sync process would stop and my phone would act normally.
So I've deleted that email account; that leaves me with my Blur and Gmail accounts on the phone. Three days and no problems whatsoever; "Motorola Services" doesn't even show up on the list of apps draining the battery anymore.
Hello
The weather is not updating properly on my phone.
Ive tried all three services (bug, accu, underground). They all report from the time I booted my phone (16:03) and it wont refresh no matter how many times i hit refresh.
All settings are correct (i think??) Google is allowed to use location from me by wifi, and stuff like that. GPS is not turned on as i have this option.
I am on working wifi, everything else works.
clean install of rom yesterday.
no extra settings except some battery tweaks in extweaks.
any ideas?
thanks.
