Hi I have a Huawei P9+ on 6.0 using stock Huawei messenger on phone and Gmail for emails. Messages are not syncing or saving to the phone or my Huawei Watch on 1.5. Even when sending messages from watch directly synched to phone no guarantee on sent to recipients.
All software up to date, only thing properly syncing every two minutes is weather just pops up on watch all the time. Why??
Have read on net could be 1.5 error or phone stopping sync. Find really annoying watch practically a paper weight. Phone & watch only 3 weeks old...
I have restored phone watch etc with basic Setup still same.
Even phone book not syncing properly missing some contacts
Hope you can help.

I've had my phone with me for awhile now, and so far so good and I've been regularly syncing with Gmail.
A couple of days back, when I wanted to send an e-mail from my computer, the list of contact suggestions that would automatically pop out as you type your contact's name wouldn't come out.
I found this strange, so I checked my contact book (from inside gmail on the computer). To my horror, the contact(s) were gone!
I've also noticed weird folders in my gmail, most that begin with "[IMAP]/" followed by drafts, inbox, etc
I checked my android, under the people app, and the contact's phone number, along with their email was still listed in my phone.
I've been searching around, and I understand that some people are having this problem in reverse, whereby contacts are disappearing from their android. Not much help there, I suppose.
So my question is; is this an android sync problem, or is gmail getting iffy?
I've now taken a precaution and have exported a back up of my gmail contacts in csv. ... but.. you can never know when this will happen again.
Pardon me if I sound noob-ish. The android is my first smartphone
Edit: Today it happened again. I seem to be losing contacts everyday. Even now my gmail chat client on the left seems to be missing contacts.
the imap folders etc you can turn off in the gmail settings server side not mobile side
Thank you
Any idea about the missing contacts?
Hello everyone,
I've tried to get a help on polish android forums but without a single reply. That's why I'm asking you for help guys. My problem is really really strange and I found nothing about such issue in whole Internet.
I have an issue with contacts synchronized with Exchange 2003 Server using Corporate Sync. After setting up account and initial synchronization everything works just perfect... until first reboot. After any reboot my contacts synchronized with Exchange starts to disappear. However mail and calc still synced well. Contacts don't disappear all at once but in "blocks" about 20 contacts every 30 seconds. It takes about 5-10 minutes till contact book is vanished. After all contacts disappear phone connects to Exchange server and starts to sync contacts again. Then it also takes 5-10 minutes till all contacts will shown (sync) depending on connection speed to server.
Initially I thought that after phone restart there's some issue with sync to exchange and that's why contacts are vanished and downloaded (synced) from exchange again. However when I disabled APN, WiFi and any other form of internet communication in phone and then restarted it, the scenario was excacly the same with one exception. Contacts got lost but not synced again since there was no internet communication. After that and due to nature of how contacts disappear (one-by-one, not all at once) I thought that maybe some indexing process is puring my phone book after device boot-up and I think I was not in mistake. Using some software (like Titanium backup) I've frozen com.motorola.blur.main and restarted the phone. After reboot contacts still started to vanish but in the middle of process I've de-frozen com.motorola.blur.main process and contacts STOPED to dissapear. From 624 contacts 507 was still remaing and not deleting themselves anymore. However those already deleted was not synced again at all. After that I re-created my account and all issue start over.
Sometimes after puring my phone book it can't sync again somehow and I have to even delete/add account again or disable contacts sync with exchange and enable it again.
Finally I've done hard reset of defy and start-over. The very first thing I've done after HR was to add Google and Exchange account and check if problem still persists on fresh system without any added software. Of course it still persists
For reference - Google account don't have this "issue" - only exchange have.
And now maybe the most important thing. This issue most probably happened after I upgraded my Defy from 2.1 to 2.2.2 throught official MSU (Motorola Software Upgrade). I can't be 100% sure that both things had their place in exact same time but for 80% they was. Maximum difference in time between upgrade and contacts issue is less than two weeks.
Finally it maybe some huge bug in Corporate Sync function in Froyo - OR Motorola has a huge bug in their BLUR software. Anyway it's very strange that no one reported that before. My phone is running stock firmware so it's no different like any other bought in Orange.
Hope anyone can give me any advice or help with it,
Regards
Exchange contacts every reboot of phone
Hi
did you solve this problem? I have the same issue every time I switch my phone off. Much to my demise when I went abroad without roaming data. I switch my phone on in the arrival hall and boom no contact in my exchange. Had no contact until I got back home. Disaster!
Unfortunatelly I did NOT. However I have a workaround for that. You can find on market app called TouchDown. It costs about $20 but does its job. Just disable synchronizing contacts by build-in exchange synchronization mechanism and let it do by TouchDown. The issue with TouchDown is that you have to edit/create/delete contacts from TouchDown application rather than from build-in contacts manager, otherwise it won't be synced to exchange.
Hello,
Last night all my contacts vanished from my S2.
They are still there when I log into my ymail via PC.
I've tried re-syncing, un-installing, re-installing etc. I just can't get them back.
I don't want to enter them all manually if I can help it.
Any ideas?
Thanks.
Welcome to the sh1tty Yahoo Mail for Android bud!
I too am a Yahoo emailer, have been since 2000, and up until yesterday i've been using it to sync my contacts. Mind you, it's always been a bit temperamental. If i updated one of my contacts online and then tried re-syncing, it would never update. NEVER! I always had to uninstall and then reinstall. How stupid is that?! As i undrstand it, Yahoo Mail for Android has always been a bit buggy in this regard, although i will say for the actual emailing side of things i really quite like it.
Well yesterday i tried uninstalling and reinstalling, as i wanted to update a particular contact, and just like yourself could i get my contacts back? Hell no! It frustrated the hell out of me, i tried everything, and in the end some 2 hours later i finally got if fixed (but you may not like the answer!).
I decided, fu<k it, Android is built by Google so let's use Google for my contacts. Even though i have never used G-Mail, i decided to put the hard work in and upload all my contacts to G-Mail. Luckily there's a shortcut to help with this, you can export your Yahoo contacts to a .csv file, and then import them into G-Mail. A lot of the numbers got garbled up in the process and needed to be manually fixed, but it gives you a head start anyway. Plus, in G-Mail you can assign your contact's photos, so now i won't have to manually put these in ever again
As soon as i was done, i tried syncing my Google account contacts and voila, they immediately showed up. And whats more, i even tried editing one straight away online, and one quick sync later it showed up immediately. Yay!
So now i have a G-Mail account (exact same ID & password as my Yahoo mail, so i won't forget! which i will use exclusively as a 'Contacts Management' solution, and my Yahoo Mail as per normal.
Trust me mate, take a couple of hours and do as i did, best move i've made since getting the phone. Yahoo need to seriously sort out the syncing on their android app!
I sync to hotmail for all my personal contacts and all of a sudden this morning none of my hotmail contacts are showing in my phone. Nothing has changed since last night and when I look in the account settings it is set up to sync contacts. Also when I go online my contacts are still in hotmail. My hotmail account is set up as an exchange active sync account and up until today it worked fine with no issues.
When I go into the contacts app I don't have any contacts for that account and when I go into groups its not even listed there at all as an account. But like I said in the account settings it is listed as syncing contacts.
Has anyone ever seen anything like this and fixed it? Or have any idea what causes it? Is it just some server issue on the hotmail side that will clear itself up randomly like it glitched out randomly? I highly doubt it's related but my phone has been unable to connect to the at&t update servers for a while now and never got the ota update I've heard about. TIA for any help.
EDIT: so I tried deleting the account and re-adding it and now some contacts are showing but not all even though the account sync shows completed. And for a second the account was listed in the contact app groups and then I literally watched it disappear. I am completely at a loss here.
I'm experiencing the same problem and can’t find a solution.
Not only my hotmail contacts keep disappearing from my standard contacts-app, also my hotmail-emails and agenda items keep disappearing. A few minutes later my smartphone tells me I’ve got new emails, but it just downloaded them back to my smartphone. The same with the contacts and agenda-items.
I already did a hard reset with my smartphone, but it keeps deleting everything from hotmail.
When I disable the synch-options for that account, it doesn’t delete my mails, contacts and agenda, but then again I have to manually look for new emails.
EDIT: I just noticed, when de synch-option is disabled for contacts, my smartphone randomly deletes everything from hotmail including the contacts. Only the contacts stay deleted, while emails and agenda-items are downloaded again.
So it probably has to be an issue with Galaxy S3 or Anroid.
I've got: Model GT-I9300 with Android-version: 4.0.4 (Ice Cream Sandwich)
Just like "erikk" my Hotmail account is set up as an Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync account.
Hi,
Lately I've had problems with the automatic synchronization with my tablet. Google apps like Gmail and calendar don't synchronize automatically when changes are made. My other Android devices are fine: when I receive an email, my phone will notify me, but my tablet won't. Not even when I pick it up after coming home, sending some e-mails at work.
When I turn the sync on and off, it does sync, but I don't want to do this manual procedure every hour to see whether I have mail or not, or whether I changed something in my calendar.
If I make a calendar change on my tablet, it won't synchronize that either (see image) the synchronization arrows show, but they don't rotate, and the current time and sync time are different. Also the text doesn't say,"synchronizing" as it normally would,( and should)
I've tried restarting the tablet, deleting and re-entering my Google account. Tried different networks, nothing seems to work.
Tablet runs 4.4.2 kitkat , haven't touched the Rom or that sort of thing.
Does anyone have any idea about this?
