I just flashed SkyRaider 4.0 recently and now only my main gmail account syncs automatically. I have to manually sync my other accounts for them to update.
I'd tried to clear cache and data and have gotten the same results.
Anyone else with this issue?
Stupid question: You checking in Accounts and Sync for those accounts to make sure they are set to sync email?
yep - def have it checked off - i just re-flashed sr4 again without loading any new apps and it still will only sync the main account and not another
well it's fixed - with a lot of tinkering and re-flashing i don't know what it was
Actually, I had that problem when I had SR4 installed. I'd get the messages when I would manually refresh, but push didn't work. I'd get messages about once per day, if I didn't refresh manually. Needless to say, that wasn't something I was prepared to live with. At the time, I didn't have much time to tinker with it, and CM had just released 7.0.3, so...
Anyway, I thought maybe it had to do with the fact that I installed with ROM Manager, but who knows?

Let me start off by saying that this issue has had me running in circles going batsh!t crazy for weeks now. Generally speaking, Exchange contacts and mail worked for me right out of the box using the built in Sense Mail and continued to work through several iterations of the Fresh ROM. Definitely occasional issues but all in all it worked. And, since I was constantly experimenting with new ROMs, I always just assumed it was me who had done something when syncing stopped working.
That said, after weeks of no tweaking Exchange Mail suddenly stopped working and despite all efforts I can't get it to work well again. Moxier, Roadsync, and Touchdown all work without a hitch. And, even the AOSP Email app I used when trying out Cyanogen continued to sync despite the occasional "connection error." Unfortunately, I would really prefer to use the built in Sense Mail app and hope someone here can help me fix whatever it is that is not working.
What Works and What Doesn't:
Exchange Mail - If I delete the account and start over I can nearly always set the account up but, on occasion get continuous "Failure, Try Again Later" dialogs. Once set up, the phone immediately starts trying to sync. The most frequent result at this point is no mail shows up but the syncing icon will spin for hours to no avail. However, if I go to view the folders, I can see my different folders which are clearly from my exchange account. However, sometimes after I set the account up and it starts syncing, some mail WILL start to show up in the inbox (10-20 messages) but then stop while the sync icon spins indefinitely.
Exchange Contacts - Always worked and continues to work
Exchange Calendar - From the very beginning had "connection timeout socket" issues but so I use a workaround using Google Calendar Sync. I am perfectly fine with this workaround so, if it can't be fixed it is no big deal.
Numerous times I have tried
-deleting and re-adding the account
-changing up the sync options
-wiping the phone and re-flashing ROM's (including stock)
-Using apps that prevent the phone from locking
-screaming and yelling
If anyone can help I would be very grateful. I also attached a logcat that ran this morning.

hmmmm...
For clarification:
After a hard reset, no rooting, no ROM, just a plain stock 2.2 EVO, you cannot sync Exchange mail? Contacts are OK, and Calendar requires workaround?
I would check with your IT dept and see if they have any restrictions on device synchronization. Ensure they are running at least Exchange 2007, and try having them delete the synchronization from the server-side.
I would test on a different EVO, preferably one that has never been rooted or flashed. Does your account sync, or can you duplicate the symptoms?
Fully stock EVO has the same inconsistencies. I'm on my second EVO due to a screen issue with the first one and was traveling so didn't root the new one for about a week and had same issues. Additionally, there is someone in our IT dept with an EVO who has had the same issues but, lacking my perseverance (or stupidity) gave up for touchdown.
It seems to be completely isolated to the HTC Mail app because even if I install the AOSP Email app on a Sense Rom I can sync email fine. Unfortunately, the AOSP Email app has little functionality in comparison and what I like most is the full screen widget of the Sense...

Check your settings for SSL and TLS. Maybe something is off there. Also check how much mail you are trying to sync and the size of the mails you're trying to download. These are all in the account settings.
Also find out if your IT dept has changed anything on their end. I had issues when upgraded from Exchange 2007 to Exchange 2010, it could be something related to that also...
Perhaps you can provide your settings and we can take a look. It's hard to pinpoint a problem without specific info.
there are some good suggestions in the thread already, but I have something relatively basic you could try. At anytime after deleting your exchange info, did you ever go into manage applications and see if there was any data still in the mail app, and if so, did you try to clear the data and cache before reloading your exchange info?
Regarding the amount of mail I am trying to sync, I've tried the default 14 days down to 3 days with no difference in reliability. I've also tried changing up the allowed size of emails from anywhere between 10kb and entire mail but still no consistency.
The settings I use are pretty straight forward and haven't messed around too much because I haven't seen to many areas to tweak. The server address is mail.companyname.com and the domain is companynameI've tried with and without the SSL box checked which has made no real difference.
What makes it frustrating is the inconsistency. For example, yesterday I deleted and set the account up again with another combination of settings and email started syncing almost immediately. But, as is typical, after syncing the first 20 messages or so nothing else showed up and the sync icon spun indefinitely. And, contacts of course synced without issue.
If there are other settings you recommend me looking at, please let me know.
fachadick had an excellent suggestion. I've seen similar sync issues when the local cache remains even after having removed the account (client-side), or if a particular mailbox in Exchange was previously synced with a Windows Mobile device (server-side).
1. Try removing the account from your EVO, and wiping out the local cache in Settings - Applications - Manage Applications (the 'All' tab). Check every app that is associated: Calendar, Calendar storage, Calendar Sync Adapter, Contacts Storage, etc, etc
2. Have your IT dept delete any and all sync relationships on the server side.
After these two items, reboot your phone, wait a while, and try again. Question: what version of Exchange does your company run?
Help: VZW Galaxy Nexus Contacts and Gmail "Sync is currently experiencing problems"
My new nexus will not sync contacts or gmail. I get the error "Sync is currently experiencing problems. It will be back shortly." I have tried clearing the cache on both apps and restarting the phone, but the error reoccurs. It has synced some contacts (58 of 141). But the error remains, and the rest of the contacts do not appear, even after choosing to display "all contacts".
Can anyone help?

I'm seeing the same thing, though it's only affecting my synched bookmarks. If you go into settings > Accounts & Sync, it'll have an exclamation by the problem child/children. Uncheck whatevers not working and your contacts should finish in theory. I was able to get all my contacts.
Last time I restarted after a cache wipe, contacts gave the error, but gmail synced for a long time before giving the error. This time, contacts again errored right away, but gmail is still syncing. I'm hoping it will finish this time, and then I'll work on getting the contacts to sync.
I've checked the syncing on my other android devices and there are no problems there, so I don't think it's a problem with the servers.
I actually had the same problem when I wiped my touchpad last night. unchecked and rechecked and it started working again.
Well I hope it's temporary, but I'd really like to get it fixed. Does anyone know how long it usually takes to sync gmail? It's been going for over 30 minutes now.
Bump for a fast board, I still need help with this. I just formatted the cache in recovery and the problem came back immediately.
Edit: I deleted my google account and readded it and it seems to be working, sorry for the bump. I hope this helps someone else.
Unfortunately mine is still broken and I've tried everything. Adding it back in doesn't help. I'm using "[email protected] and my email will not synch even though others do. I have other gmail accounts that are synching just fine. What's up Google??? Man this is frustrating; the email account I actually need most is not working.
I just got my wife a Nexus, and I have been getting the sync error, along with a pop-up saying "unfortunately contacts have stopped working". Gmail is working fine, it's just contacts. This started happening after unlocking, rooting, and installing Codename ROM. I'm running Codename on my Nexus without problems. I unrooted, and relocked hers, and it seemed to be fine. Went back to unlocked, rooted, and Codename, and the problem came back. I'm going to try the previous versions of Codename, and Nova Launcher to see if it makes a difference, but if anyone has any more info about this, I'd like to hear about it.
Thanks
My email worked fine with Exchange server in Gingerbread but since I've upgraded
to ICS is not working ok, it doesn't download all emails and I keep getting
"Connection Error" messages.
Who else is having issues with Exchange server in ICS4.0.3 ?
Can we report this issue somewhere to Samsung?
Got the same problem, contacts and calendar syncing, also in two days i got 3 emails on the device as well, but the oldest ones. Have bought Enhanced Email and is working perfect.
Mine is fine on bone stock LP7 or LPQ
check the exchange server for errors if you have access. the mobile device policy might be doing something funky
Problem I'm having is that when I configure my works's exchange environment settings, only the email and the contacts synch, the calendar is not synched at all. Same problem with the Enhanced Email app only mail and contacts and no calendar? Is this something with ICS specifically or with the kernel LP7.
running STOCK LPF with XXKL1 Baseband. was experiencing battery drain. apparently its a known issue with ICS 4.0.3. Tried couple different things and deleting account and re-adding seem to do the trick for me at this point
Same here
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA
Having the same problem. Mail/contacts sync like a charm, but the calendar just gets stuck. Lot's of wakelocks when I enable it too...
Have been searching my *** off to get this fixed, but thus far, no solution. Tried re-adding the account, even wiping the whole phone, installing AOSP calendar/mail... nothing helps
A search on Google taught me it was a 4.0.3 bug btw, and google is kind of neglecting the whole thing :/
Bottom line is, you need to delete ALL of your reoccurring events. That's the only one i haven't tried yet
Edit: Just tried it, it worked! I just deleted some random events which were really old and sometimes in Outlook 2011 giving some problems with reminders. Now my calendar is syncing again. No wipe needed btw
What I did:
In outlook 2011 for OSX (but can be any mailclient) i created a local folder. I searched for reocurring events, and started moving them one by one to the local folder, which removes them from exchange. Every 3 items, i tried sync again, and after a few tries, my calendar started working.
The problem for me was with some birthdays, which were added from the contacts by my HTC Desire in the past
Hi All,
I've done a mostly successful clean install of Leedroid 3.3.3 R5. I have an Exchange email issue that seems uncommon.
First off, I was running my Desire s-off, unlocked, but the stock ROM prior. The email on the stock setup had the same setup procedure as what I have now with Leedroid, and I have set up my email, and several others successfully many times. I really think this is not an issue with email settings.
-I set up an Exchange active sync account.
-At end of setup, I get error - unable to set up account, try again later.
-try again right away, and it proceeds.
-Contacts sync
-Calender fails to sync
-The weird one - email syncs - shows that it was retrieving 70 or so emails, and notifies me whenever i get new mail after that, even shows new mail on the mail icon, but when you got to the inbox, it just says 'No Mail'
So far I have deleted and recreated the mail account a few times, as well as re-loaded LeeDroid.
I like the ROM, but I only have a short time to get my email going again before I give up and revert to the stock setup, as this is a work phone.
Anyone know how I could repair this issue?. Possible reverting to the older email program? I do need email accounts and calender to sync.
Cheers.
I just got it to work after another re-install of Leedroid. Wish I could post some insight as to where I went wrong, but I'm not sure what I had missed. I'f i figure it out, I'll add to this post.
Thanks
Hello, I hope I can get some help from you guys about what is a petty issue I am having. I am having trouble getting my Google Calendar to sync up. The particulars are whenever I text GVENT and add a Calendar event i get the confirmation text message stating the even was added. However when I go into the Calendar it does not reflect the event was added. I can see the event on the online Google Calendar. If I manually sync the calendar the event appears on my mobile calendar. So I guess the issue is that the Calendar is not Auto Syncing. I have done the following. made sure auto sync is on, ensured the correct calendar is linked up, and even cleared data and cache. Removed account and added it back. I just reflashed this rom and it's not working now. Since I can sync it up manually is it rom related? Or something simple? Driving me crazy !
So after a day of searching I found the answer. Restoring system data in Titanium backup caused me to have this trouble. After re-flashing and restoring only certain basic apps without any system data it is fixed. Yea !:good:
