Hi, I just got my qtek 8500 and wanted to sync my contacts from outlook. But after using ActiveSync (4.1.0) all of the birthdays on my smartphone are off by one day, when in outlook the dates are still correct!! I tried playing with the regional settings but that didn't help me. Please help......
Check the clock settings, as there is an option for the timezone under the screen that allows you to set the time.
I have checked the options, the timezone is exactly the same as on my desktop computer, but the birthday dates are ALL shifted by one day (all remaining calendar entries are correct!)
Any clues ?

Everytime I reboot my phone it screws up the time and data generally I lose 8 hours from the correct time it was set at before reset.
I have it set to Enable Autoupdate and it is set to the correct time
Hi, I've this problem too. So how can I solve this problem ?
Is it maybe a problem in the ROM ? Maybe can an update solve the problem ?
Thx in advance for help !
I "solved" it by disabling the "Automatic Time/Time zone" setting. (In Settings - Clock & Alarm - Date and Time)!
But I still had to manually remove all the duplicate entries...
that is normal you can test this on every windows mobile device (new and old version). it is a work by design error from MS.
the format in that the date will be saved is the problem but there is no way to change this.
Sorry if this is in the wrong section, but
Recently ive been trying sense roms and they just haven't been able to sync facebook and my contacts, before sometimes by the time i had finished the setup, my contacts were linked with photos (well most of them) ive tried clearing the data, cache, removing the account and adding it again, leaving it overnight, but nothings happening. Maybe its a problem HTC is having.
Anyone having the same problem?
This is a common problem. You sometimes have to wait up to 6 hours for it to properly sync. I would wait at least 2 hours between trying each fix. Typically fixes have included:
Removing and re-adding your facebook account
Doing the above on 3G (or lower) only
Doing the above on WiFi only
Removing the account, re-installing the facebook app and adding your account through the app rather than the settings menu
ive tried all of that trust me
Then try again. It does work as i've had it broken and working on the same rom. It is just very picky sometimes.
Make sure you're on the latest version of whichever rom your using (would be helpful to know).
Don't do too much at once and be more patient with it. This isn't something you'll fix in a few hours or a day. Try spending a few hours without a facebook account activated at all. Reboot a few times without the facebook app and any account. Let your phone sync everything else for a few hours. Then try adding the facebook account without facebook app installed (don't force a sync) just let it sync in its own time - could take 3 hours or more. After that time try a forced sync. If nothing happens get the facebook app and add your details to that and see if that helps. etc etc. I would probably repeat this process on 3G and on WiFi separately.
Which rom's have you tried? and how long have you had each installed?
ok thanks, i'll try this
i'm using the mmod rom
EDIT: thanks very much, i removed facbeook, rmeoved the account, left it for about two hours, added the account and its working now!
Hello
The stock gmail app does not sync. It does not even push. Have to manual refresh to receive mails. Wots the problem?
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App
Settings/Accounts and sync/click on gmail account check that Gmail is ticked.
You prolly have the phone go into power saving mode when the battery drops to 50%.
When it goes into power saving mode, autosync turns off.
If u want autosync most of the time, then change power saving mode to 10%.
Even more funny with mine:
since yesterday 6.30 pm stock email app won´t do anything anymore, not even manual sync. Sync circle stays forever. Worked some minutes before faultless.
Tried to register server newly with my gmail address but green bar stayed forever ........
Clicked "cancel", went back to mail app and mail app told me: "account or password wrong"
It´s now completely dead. Tried to switch off, batt off, clear cache but it is dead .................... Google Gmail app works flawless as well as calendar, docs and all othet google account related apps.
Only thing I dedected: when I look into system - running apps - under Samsung mail app it says "Reboot" ???? (in German NEUstart) ...................
Wonder if anyone has an idea how to solve THIS ?
Am I stupid or what ?
I don´t find the register in the menu where I can SELECTIVELY and ONLY delete the account for the samsung stock email app .......................
Am I blind ?
Just for Info (I´m SOOO stupid)
Open stock mail app, long press on Gmail left upper box, choose "delete".
Then register same account again, voila, it works again ..........
(Found it in a German forum .......................... )
I have probably the same problem, although it could be something different. Teh gmail sync can be turned on under Accounts&Sync menu, but it turns off every time I reboot / turn-off the phone. I am using CM7, but I am not sure if this problem is CM7 related... I have reflashed GAPPS but it didn't help.
am facing the same problem not only my gmail does not sync properly, my whatsapp msgs are coming in really slow. am gonna try to delete the account and sign in again. see if it helps.
In my case deleting account didn't help. It still happens for some reason that the Gmail sync doesn't work and when I go to Accounts & Sync preferences I just see that the Gmail sync dialog box is unchecked. So, then I just check the box and it starts working until it, due to mysterious reasons, stop syncing and I need to repeat the process to start the sync again.
Do you have the battery saving feature enabled and if so check the settings.
Because one of the settings (I don't know which because I disabled the useless thing) disables sync or at least it did on my phone.

I have CM7 ROM and I don't use any other special tweaks or settings. The thing is only gmail stops syncing. When I open the sync settings (Accounts & Sync) I often find gmail unchecked, but contacts and everything else syncs just fine. When I set the gmail to sync, everything works until I restart my phone (I have it turned off overnight...).
Hope it described my problems well enough. I have already tried reflashing ROM, GAPPS, deleting my account, cache and all kinds of things I was able to think of. Nothing helped.
I couldn't find such setting. If you mean wi-fi sleep policy I have it set to never. The thing is Gmail sync box is being constantly unchecked whenever I turn off an on again my cell phone...
Hi everybody,
I recently downloaded K-9 Mail for my Galaxy S2 and setup all my email accounts, but the problem is that I want this program periodically check my emails.
I've set the "Folder Poll Frequency" for all accounts to "1 Hour", but it doesn't seem to automatically check email.
When, after sometime, I open K-9 Email, I see at the top the statement "Next Poll @ ..." which is always set to a time one hour later than the time I opened K-9; for example, if I open it at 9:32, it says "Next Poll @ 10:32" and I press the Home button and wait for 5 minutes and open it again at 9:37 and it says "Next Poll @ 10:37".
Anybody having the same issue? Is there any workaround?
Thank you...
Menu-more-settings-account settings-fetching email-folder poll frequency- you can try to set it never
Menu-more-settings-global settings-network-backround sync- set it to never
Hope this helps

I'm sorry, but I'm a little confused...
I'm not sure if I made myself clear; I actually DO WANT K-9 Mail to DO SYNC my emails in the background and DO NOTIFY me if I have any new email...
Thank you...

Could you do a test (if you haven't done it yet)?
Set the poll freq. to 15 min.
Wait 5 min and check K9 to see if poll time has changed.
Wait 5 min and email yourself something, so we know you will receive a msg.
Wait 5 min and see if K9 fetchs the message.
If it doesn't work, check if manual fetch works (and syncs). If manual fetch doesn't work, check your email settings.
If manual fetch works, do you have any data connection managers that could interfere (such as JuiceDefender)?
In my case I have K9 with two mail accounts and didn't saw any problem fetching (poll freq. @ 15 min)
Hello
Don't want to open another new post for K9-Mail but can you please advise if it works with Exchange 2010?
Thank You
[SOLVED]: Realized that my time zone in outlook.com was different than the one on Outlook 2013. Changing the time zones to match has fixed my problem.
When I use Outlook 2013 to create an appointment on Monday any time after 16:00 (4:00 pm), the appointment gets pushed to the Sunday on the phone.
If I tap into the appointment, the event date will still say "Monday" but its pinned location on the calendar is on Sunday.
Can anyone try reproducing this?
Process:
Create an appointment on Monday at 16:30 (4:30 pm) on Outlook 2013
Sync the calendar with your phone
Check your phone calendar to see if the phone pinned the event on the following Sunday or the Sunday before
Thanks much!
What gets pinned to the live tile is the notification, which goes 24h earlier than the event originates. The alarm itself will go off at the time u have specified. It sux big time, but I dunno how to by-pass this. Tried everything

Oh I'm not talking about the live tile. I'm talking about the location of the event in the calendar app itself. Are your notifications going off too early?
Just for the birthdays which r downloaded from FB, they go off exactly 1 day earlier - it seems that this is the default setting and cannot be altered.

That's interesting. Facebook doesn't display birthdays on my phone at all. Do I have to enable it somewhere?
Go to ur calendar settings, and there enable birthday calendar.
