Help with background and auto sync - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I moved to an Android device recently, and I'm having trouble with auto sync on a few of the apps. I've back ground and auto sync turned on, I've the always on mobile data enabled but still my weather, email and twitter won't sync according to the set schedule. I've ATK installed but I've disabled auto-kill on it. This is quite frustrating, what am I missing. Thanks.

Need to add something, these auto sync on twitter cast probably keeps working when the device is on but stops working after the device goes into standby mode. I'm really looking forward for some guidance on this nagging issue. Thanks.

[Q] Sync stuck running?

Something is causing my phone not to sleep. Looks like it's trying to sync because the sync icon is always there. Google Framework Services is listed in Spare Parts. I've tried removing all my accounts. Killing the data in Gmail. Still stuck. Any other ideas?
Looks like it may have been ooVoo. I had tried killing it, killing it's service, both with no luck. Checked CatLog and saw that it was still throwing an exception. Cleared data on it and sync icon went away. Now to wait and see if that was the culprit.
Mine was stuck syncing too, found it was picasa...didn't want that, not sure how it got checked but in checking stopped it.

I ended up uninstalling ooVoo... HUGE difference in battery life. I was shocked.

Facebook notifications come back

I have to disable notifications on the Facebook app at least one a day. Sometime after disabling it, I will get a Facebook notification. I open the app up and sure enough notifications are turned back on. Does this happen to anybody else? Any way to stop it other than removing the app?

Do you have auto sync turned on for Facebook?
In the Facebook app i have unchecked sync. I don't even have it stop in my accounts.
I get no FB notifications, and everything is turned on. I have gone as far as trying the BB trick, and it did not help. Been trying to solve this for days.
The Facebook app for Android has ALWAYS been a piece of @#$%. I've had the settings change on me as well, or randomly the contact sync screen would open when I click on the app. I'd try clearing the app data and then making your choices again. I also noticed that even though I have the refresh set to never, my messages still come through immediately as well.
I may just completely remove it and install Friends caster.

[Q] Not receiving Gmail Notifications

I have looked up this problem and tried everything. I have cleared the data, forced stop, rebooted, and even uninstalled the app but nothing. The only time I receive those notifications are when the app syncs. I have everything turned on in the Gmail settings for notifications I just really want notifications to work. Thanks.

The only time this happened to me was when I flashed Clean Rom 3.0 (back then) the first time. I found that nothing was syncing except only when I manually pushed. I got frustrated and just did a clean re-flash... all was good (never had the problem since). I am not exactly sure where the issue was so I just chalked it up as a bad flash.
Edit: Just realized yes, it was a bad flash when I re-installed google apps with Titanium Back Up... The clean flash installed from Play Store : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2077310&highlight=gmail+sync+issue

Settings > [email protected] > Sound & Vibrate > uncheck "Notify once"
that should make your emails come to you instantly whenever you get a new email. if it's something else, you would just have to clear data like the poster above mentioned, and then go to these settings again.

[Q] Facebook app - major battery drain

Has anyone experienced this before with the Facebook app? Something's throwing it for a loop! It only seemed to start with the latest app update. However, I am also using TeslaUnread with Nova Prime (I also use Pushbullet, but disabled the notification push for Facebook). Guess that's a place to start, disabling Tesla for Facebook and see where that takes me. The investigation continues, but I thought I'd post here to see if anyone else has seen this before with a similar config.

Use Greenify
Yep greenify
Thanks guys, will look into that.
Go into app settings in Facebook and disable sync and refresh time to never. That slows Facebook battery drain. Good luck

Yes, saw that one day. It was surprising just how bad it was. I uninstalled Facebook, reset, and reinstalled later. It's been fine since, but the problem may recur (I don't know why it happened in the first place).

I went ahead and set the app to never auto-refresh (looks like it doesn't affect the notifications, so that's good), since I don't need my news feed updating every hour when I can just do that when I go into the app. I've been just closing the app completely every time I'm done using it for the past few days, but I think I'll give it another go letting it run in the background, and see how it does. I did notice a couple other people mentioned bad Note 4 battery on the latest reviews in the Play Store.
