I have tried a few of the new 2.2.1 based roms and I keep encountering the same issue. After i set up my corporate account, exchange email, i will get emails synced up to a couple weeks and then it just stops. It never gets current emails (or even ones newer than a week) and if i attempt to do a manual sync, the app just freezes for a bit and then looks at me all accomplished like, as if to to say "see i did it". Except, it never actually syncs.
I tried this with bionix frost and Gothi. Verified that the issue does not occur with other roms (bionix v, miu clones, axura, etc).
Has anyone seen this? I haven't seen a mention in any forums.

Gmail is acting kind of funky on this phone...
Every now and then Ill take a look at the Gmail account on my phone and Ill see:
Inbox (1)
But all my emails have been marked read on the phone. So Ill log in on a desktop, and see that one of my e-mails is unread, even though I just marked it read on my phone.
Sometimes Ill get a zero unread count in my app, login on a desktop and see that Ive got 3 or more that were never marked read.
Gmail used to be the best email experience out there on a mobile device, in my opinion. But its now gotten to the point where this bug plagues just about every email I receive.
Am I the only one? Is there even any action I take to prevent this?
Sounds like a syncing issue. Everything works fine for me. Are you on a custom ROM?
Stock rooted.
I seem to remember having the same issue on my G1 and the myTouch Slide, though not to this gravity. I guess it must have something to do with my account itself, but I would really hope not. Starting over with a new Gmail isnt the most elegant solution...
I'm getting this today too. Frustrating.
my wife's Vibrant can't even sync with gmail since yesterday
Alright, in the past few days, I have been running into the same issue. An issue I have never had before.
When I try to sync my Facebook Contacts it is able to sync my calendar, but after trying to sync my contacts it says:
"Sync is currently experiencing problems. It will be back shortly."
This only happens with MY account. I put in my sister's and dad's accounts, and they synced up perfectly.
I have never had this issue before.
I have tried EVERYTHING in the book to solve it.
This problem occurs on any ROM I use (Froyo and Eclair, but I am currently on Macnut). I have ODINed to stock, and the problem is still there, even on bone stock.
I tried going onto my account and uninstalling the Samsung Mobile application and the Facebook for Android Application, ODINed to stock, tried logging in/syncing but I still received the "Sync is currently experiencing problems. It will
be back shortly."
I tried deactivating my account and reactivating, changing my password, my email - still no change.
When I go to my contacts, the activities feed of my Facebook shows up perfectly, with pictures an all.
This thing is stumping me big time. My FB contacts are vital to me, and it's bothering the **** out of me.
Anyone have words of enlightenment?
Come on help me out here guys.

Lemme get this straight, you're using the built in facebook contacts thing right? From contacts > updates which will prompt you to log in?
If its not working try deleting your account off of it and putting it back in
Of course could be a sever issue as well

good to know i'm not the only one!
I'm wondering if anyone has any suggestions for me. I have a Fascinate which has worked fine up until I did a factory reset. I did this reset after picking up the Froyo update. The phone and calendar worked fine after getting Froyo, it was only after the reset that the exchange calendar stopped showing events...
I have never rooted or otherwise messed with my phone. It has picked up any available OTA updates and is running 2.2.1 and build ED04.
Here's some more info:
My corporate exchange calendar refuses to show any of my calendar events (but fortunately exchange email is fine).
I have been through multiple levels of support at both VZ and Samsung. I have also received a replacement phone from VZ (which behaves exactly the same).
No other Andriod phone hitting our exchange server seems to have this problem. I'm in our IT department so I know that all the account config settings are fine.
As I look at the timestamp for the corporate calendar it seems current but the calendar remains empty.
Both VZ and Samsung simply told me to use Touchdown as a "solution". I'd really, really like fix this and go back to using the stock calendar.
Any suggestions out there?
Welp, im just wondering all over today and i saw your question with not much of a response so i figured i'd throw in my "2 cents" as to what has solved that for a few people i work with.
First thing i'd like you to try (if you haven't already) is removing your account and creating your account again from scratch.
If that doesn't seem to fix it check and see if your calender events and such are going to your exchange moto calender...not google (Google doesnt sync with the Exchange were moto does)
All else fails, touchdown isn't the "stock" app but by standards, it's very effiecent and works just as well as the stock!
Sorry i couldn't be of more help, but i would love to know if any of my 2 suggestions above solved your problem, or if you've already done both and it still fails!
Best of Luck!
Same problem here...
On Friday, June 24th, while I was traveling on business I discovered to my horror that all of the corporate calendar items on my Samsung Fascinate suddenly disappeared and will no longer sync with my Exchange server. Almost a month and a half later, and I still can't find a solution. My corporate emails and contacts are still coming through like always, but it just won't sync the calendar anymore, even though the spinning disc beside the calendar indicates that it is. I've re-booted the phone, double-checked all of the settings, and even uninstalled and reinstalled the link to my Exchange, but always the same result: I can get my email and contacts, but not my calendar.
After all of my DIY ideas failed, I called Samsung's toll-free customer support number, and to her credit, the representative was very friendly and personable, but honestly, she was not very knowledgeable. I explained to her that my Fascinate suddenly lost all of my work calendar data and won't re-sync, even though my contacts and emails are still coming through. Her first question was what operating system I was running on my desktop at work. I told her that I'm running Microsoft XP, but I felt that it was necessary at that point to clarify that I don't sync my Fascinate to my desktop computer-- it syncs to my account on my employer's Microsoft Exchange, so my data gets pushed to my Fascinate through the Exchange server 24/7, even when my desktop computer is shut down. It took a little more explaining before she finally grasped it, but in the end, she agreed that the operating system was not relevant to my calendar sync issue. But then she asked me what version of Microsoft Outlook I'm running. Again, I was more than happy to give her the information that she requested (Outlook 2002 SP 3), but I felt compelled to explain yet again that the shell programs on my desktop doesn't matter, because my Fascinate syncs to Exchange (2003), and not to my desktop. I was respectful and patient, but unfortunately, there was simply no way to get her to comprehend that my desktop computer has nothing to do with the problem, and her parting advice before ending the call was that I must upgrade my Outlook to resolve the syncing issue. Face slap. When I told the IT director what she said, all he could do was laugh. I wish I could do the same. I'm very frustrated, because I really depend on my phone to manage my work calendar, and a few weeks ago, it worked perfectly for over six months. Like the OP says, none of the other Android/Fascinate who share my Exchange server are having syncing issues with their corporate calendars or other features.
When I went to a Verizon store, the rep listened to me, skeptically double-checked all of my settings, and then, stumped, suggested the nuclear option: reset the phone to the factory settings. I don't want to do that, for two reasons: one, it would take me days to reinstall all of my apps, data and media files, and two, I don't think that it would work anyway. According to others on the internet who have reported the same problem, even a replacement phone hasn't fixed the problem. So with that in mind, I again uninstalled my corporate account, and had the IT department delete my Exchange account as well. Later, we both re-established the account, and it still didn't work.
Finally, last night, the 2.2.2 update was pushed to my phone, and I thought, "Yes! At last, this could be the fix I've been waiting for!" But no such luck. Calendar still empty, and won't sync. I'm very disappointed. I need to access and manage my calendar while I'm on the go, so this is really affecting me. If anyone comes across the solution, PLEASE post. Thanks.
GQMoneySmooth,
I we must have been talking to the same reps at VZ. They could not get their mind around syncing directly with exchange.
I still have not found resolution to this problem either. I have even been lucky enough to have VZ replace my phone with another fascinate. Still the same problem.
I have installed Touchdown as means of getting my calendar info. It works but I HATE it.
I came really close to rooting and installing another ROM on my phone but I just don't have the time or energy to do this now. Minimally it IS functional...
Good luck and maybe someone smarter than us can figure out a way to get the native calendar working!
Hey all,
I am having a couple of weird issues with my brand new Thunderbolt (stock).
#1
The first is, one of my AOL email accounts keeps saying (and reminding me via a notification) that I have 6 new emails. Even though, all emails are read or old.
#2
The second is, the same account is not actually receiving/updating any new emails, whether I get one, or twenty. I have to go through a browser to see that I have received something.
The odd thing is, my other AOL email account (set up basically the same way) is working completely fine.
On my last Thunderbolt (which was rooted and running BAMF, shortly before it broke and got this new replacement), I was experiencing Problem #2 for the last few days or so.
Any ideas?
no ideas at all?
never had any email problems, but also have never had aol email...
New to the Streak and custom Roms. I have not been able to get my accounts to sync regularly. My two POP mail (aol)accounts did not update at all today, my exchange account, which is push, was way behind today. It seems Facebook and gmail seem to by updating properly.
I am running Android 2.3.3 with SD Gingerstreak 2.4.4 and kernal 2.6.35.7-perf Baswband GAUSB1A140515-US
When I go into Accounts and Sync Settings at the bottom I have the message "Sync is currently experiencing problems. It will be back soon"
This appears all the time using both tmobile and Straight Talk sims, today was the worst.
Any guidance is greatly appreciated.
Since your are new to the streak and custom roms, let me make a suggestion for you. Get rid of Gingerstreak and go with DSC. Gingerstreak was groundbreaking when it first came to be, but is now unsupported and has been for quite a while. The team involved with DSC, especially _n0p_, are nothing short of amazing and have produced a retail quality Gingerbread rom and associated kernel.
