Google Calender not Syncing on Desire - Desire General

Hey Guys,
Did a search, but couldn't see this specific issue come up.
Been trying to sync my Google Calender all morning but even though all the boxes are ticked and the little circle arrows show up next to the sync section, the phone just won't start syncing.
Never had a problem with this at all before and it's now becoming very frustrating.
I have no other syncs activated apart from the google calender and it's not working.
Anyone come across this issue or know a solution?

Problem solved.
Seems it wouldn't sync whilst I had low memory symbol up. (13.8mb available) so deleted app and now working.
Bloody annoying!

That's my main gripe with this phone. I used my hero for like 4 months and never saw low memory. First day I got my Desire, low mem.
Had to wait until I was willing to root, so now I have Modaco with APPS2SD+

Phone keeps hanging with 'Messaging' menu appearing

Hi All,
I'm a long time lurker and first poster - just want to say initially thanks for all the helpful hints, tips, software etc I've picked up from the forum.
However, I've recently got a problem that I can't seem to crack and wondered if anyone has any ideas. I've tried searching but to no avail.
Randomly (and often when browsing) 'Messaging' appears on the top bar (with 'Delete' and 'Menu' on the softkey bar (as if it had suddenly shifted to an email page) but the main portion of the screen remains frozen with whatever was going on before (i.e. the webpage, today screen or whatever). It'll happen a few times then Opera crashes, but it also happens with the phone on standby (not sure if Opera was still running).
If I hit 'Menu' then 'Reply' it comes up with the latest message from my Hotmail account. I'm running Windows Live as a push account I think it may be that triggering it when it starts to sync. Perhaps some sort of problem with Opera and Windows Live when they're both running?
I've not got any serious mods installed and didn't have this problem until recently. I've got the latest versions of Opera, Windows Live and have recently reflashed the ROM in case that was the problem but no such luck.
I'm going to disable the push email and see if it still happens then try uninstalling things to see if that stops it but any suggestions gratefully received if you've had a similar problem and have managed to solve it.
Brief spec:
WinMo 6.5 (latest official HTC ROM)
UK O2 network
Opera Mobile 10 Beta 2u (Ninja Duck enhanced, but it happened with the Opera official version too)
1% Battery mod
FInixNOverBatteryIconsOnly battery icon mod
sdkcerts for above
SmartPhone tracker (disabled - going to uninstall to check)
ive got the same issue with my stock att branded tilt2
hope someone knows whats causing this...
I'm now thinking it may be a memory shortage issue - last time it did it I checked on task manager and it said memory usage was 95%
It's only about 59% when I reboot so I can only assume that Opera or something is using an inordinate amount of system memory. No idea if that's it, though
HTC Imagio Too
Same problem with my HTC Imagio. Messaging just pops up randomly and for no reason. I believe, too, that it has something to do with the Hotmail push email, but it has not always done this, which is the real mystery.
I'm having the same thing happen. But when I hit the reply button, it just brings up a blank email with my address in the From line. I haven't noticed any increase in RAM though. To me, it's nothing more than a nuisance.
Same here, tmobile stock rom wm6.5.
But when I touch the center area the message tool bar goes away and I resumewhatever I was doing just fine, so I normally ignore this.
May have something to do with checking email. I don't have push (push for gmail still not good IMHO), but the phone is checking my two gmail accounts every 15 minutes.
I have this problem too, and can't stand it. Have push Hotmail via Windows Live, Sync "as items arrive" from 7am to 11pm.
I've also downloaded the HTC hotfix for SMS freezing (in case this is related somehow).
I searched for it and can't believe this hasn't been solved yet.
Same here.
I have had this problem since day one, about 5 months ago on my Tilt2. Grrr.
Same issue here.
I also have this issue.
I have observed this occur with 65% memory usage.
I can also confirm this occurs with POP3 email. I have 2 POP3 accounts and no push accounts.
It does not seem connection related, happens when connected via EDGE, 3G, & Wifi.
I am running an NRG wm6.5 ROM.
same problem here. was hoping to find a fix on here.
Same here, Verizon TP2 when I hit the messaging image, it just goes away. Using stock WinMo 6.5 rom with about 8 apps from OpenMkt. Device is pretty stable and other than above and very slow opening mail sometimes.
everyone has thais problem and no replies :-( I also have this problem
my phone freezes a lot when opening a new txt. I downloaded the hotfix sms fix from htc and when i go to install it it just says the hotfix is not compatible
I have a problem with mine regarding opening TXT messages in windows messaging app, not in the HTC txt app. When I close it, it just freezes then I have to hit the side button to reset....Anyone have a fix for this? Im running TMOUS windows 6.5
Same problem here. Although mine happens on both emails (pop and windows live) and text. Whenever I close any of them the messaging will pop up 5-30 seconds later.
Hopefully if we get enough people with the same problem someone will eventually find a solution!
EDIT: I'm running stock Verizon ROM with a couple minor mods (nothing that screws with messaging, other than the disable SMS sent popup)
Me 2
I too have the same issue with stock tmo 6.5 rom. I never noticed it with energy roms. I wonder if maybe he knows what could be causing this issue? Just an idea.

Gmail on my Desire not working this morning. Anyone else affected?

I've just discovered that my Gmail app is not receiving or sending. I knew it didn't recieve a mail I got in my box at arount 10.30 BST (GMT +1) and even after a restart, it's still pretty dead.
Actually, I didn't get any emails since 05.21 BST. That was the earliest one this morning that I can check from my computer that I got. Yesterday, my Gmail app was fine.
I'm not sure if this is linked to Rob Pomeroy's issue but this isn't about Exchange ActiveSync.
Anyone else have this issue?
Yep, having problems also.
I'm in the USA and my Gmail doesn't seem to be syncing either..
It used to be I'd hear my phone been before I got a popup on my screen.. Now it's just not doing it's job.. I can click and make it sync, but it seems to not be pushing email to me anymore..
I am on TMobile, but on wifi..
I don't know what the deal is.. I haven't loaded anything new lately..
Same here in Germany.
Edit: Now it works. But it takes longer then normally.
Mine here in uk is not syncing, even if you try to manually sync its not getting any new mails, wonder what's up.
I had this issue a couple of days ago. Couldn't work out what the problem was, until I found out there was a known issue with gmail failing to sync if internal memory got to low.
I had about 4mb left, so i then tried deleting some apps until the low memory warning went away, and sure enough gmail started syncing again. Pretty ****ty issue to be honest, but hopefully wont be a problem once google let you install apps to the sd.
So if you lot have a low memory warning, try clearing some space, and hopefully the issue will go .
yes that was the problem for me, finding it hard to find apps i can delete got a good selection of stuff i use, roll on apps on sd in froyo.
My Gmail has been working fine, but then again I'm using Google Apps for Domains, so it is possible that the difference is there.
Regards,
Dave
Yes me too. Started on Monday Tuesday this week (10th May) For no reason Exchange sync stopped worked and I couldn't receive any emails on my SIM unlocked Desire on Orange UK. Can still send.
Sorry off post as it's not a Gmail issue, but I'm looking for a solution - seems it might be and Exchange problem...?
According to the status dashboard (see here), Gmail has been having problems the past 3 days.
Note that this link is live, so it will move according to the date and current status.

Was just about to post my coincidence about having low memory, deleting Google Earth, low memory icon disappeared, and mail came in. Funny thing is, my GTalk had stopped working as well until I had more space! Now that one I have no idea why it is linked to low memory.
Come on, why wouldn't these things cache to SD card.
On another note, for some of the others still having this problem, I know I had it once before and it had nothing to do with low memory. I just kept on getting mail about 30mins-2hrs late. Then the problem just disappeared.
I hate intermittant problems. Too hard to diagnose since you show someone, then POOF!!! the problem is gone. You are left looking like a technophillic hyperchondriac.

I don't believe it!!! Why on earth couldn't it just pop up a little warning box saying "memory low, sync will halt until this has been resolved"? Or even better - use the bloomin' SD card!!
Many thanks to fozzy for pointing this out, I was on the verge of resetting my Desire until I read this!!

Contacts & calendar update failure connected to low disc space warning.

Last week, I had the problem, much reported here and elsewhere, of my contacts and calendar suddenly refusing to sync with Google. I damn near tore my hair out trying to solve the problem and whilst cursing and fiddling with my phone, I took time out to free up some space. The sync suddenly started working again, but I couldn't be sure whether the two were connected.
This morning I bought an app and this again tipped me into 'low disc space' territory. My sync also stopped. So, I deleted some more apps, lost the warning, tried to sync again, and... voila!
I hope this helps some of you.

Please forgive me for bumping this, but I think it may be useful to people who are having problems - as I was!
Thanks this helped me
I believe all syncĂ­ng stops, not just contacts and calendar.
Gmail and the weather widget will stop too.
Possibly also Friendstream, Twitter and Facebook apps/widgets (I hardly use these, so I don't know for sure).
Too bad there isn't a notification for this, such as "Couldn't sync <list of items> because of low space."

Activesync missing deletions

Hi
I have spent some time searching for this and can't find anything on it.
I think it's 2 problems that are related.
the first is to do with ACtivesync, it's currently syncing to exchange 2007 (I think, it's a hosted system) when i am deleting items in bulk i can deleted 10 or so from the phone at say 8am but when i get into office at say 9am some of those emails are still there, not all of them but atleast some of them.
the other thing which i have noticed is i think if i have done stuff in mail on the phone and then hit the power button to turn the screen off it stops syncing, if i think unlock the phone i see the sync icon at the top, the phone must sync while the display is off but but turning it off seems to stop it.
has anyone else found this or can shed any light on it
I have seen this problems you mentioned.
But I don't have a clue for this.
I'm also experiencing similar problems, I'm searching around a long time, but didn't find anything.
See this thread, where I describe my main problem.
forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=756377&highlight=exchange+2003
But I definitely also have your deletion problem some times.
I also have the same problem.
Regarding the sync stopping, do you have Enable Always On Data in settings? I think that else it will turn off data after a while when you turn off the screen to preserve battery.

Hi
Glad I am not the only one with this strange problem, my data is set to always on, it was one of the first things I did, I know the data connection works as as I have an IMAP account that is set to receive every 10:30 mins which works on standby.
Would be great if someone could shed some light in this.
Cheers
Tom
Ps I am using the its orange group Rom which updated straight off when phone was first on so don't know what it was like before up date

Anyone who's using Microsoft OneNote?

I have trouble getting my 300MB Notebook to to sync, Does anybody have a workaround or a tip?
I still couldn't set it up properly.
Just a little more info might help us.
What happens when you try to sync?
Are you on wifi or on 3g?
What is the behaviour you expect?
Have you tried syncing a small notebook?
Have you tried creating a new notebook just on the device and syncing that?
I use OneNote all the time and have no issues at all. My notebooks are rather large, too. Perhaps if we know what it is doing instead of syncing we could help you out.
My Bad, Thanks for the prompt response guys..
The Syncing never finishes. It's been two days now. I even put it for one full day.
Worst part is in this new version of OneNote I cant see the sync progress. Earlier version, there was an option to see which section is syncing and how many are more left on the notification bar. So I'd know if it gets stuck somewhere, there's a problem with a page. But in the new version, no notification appears. Since guys seem to be doing alright, it might be something on the device. My laptop syncs perfectly, and only the note 7 gave this problem now.
