The message about failed contacts backup appeared for the first time about 3-4 days ago. If i click on it, it disappears but then comes back in the next few minutes. I've been searching Internet about this problem with no success.
Tried to play around with accounts and sync options. Disabling auto-sync indeed solves the problem. But if I have auto-sync enabled and manually uncheck all the accounts updates, then this message still appears.
None of the accounts show that there was an error while synchronization. I've just clicked sync all and it did synced everything successfully but in a minute this message appeared again. Is it related to Samsung main account? Anyone else faced the same problem? Any how to solve it?
I suspect it might be related to the main account but deleting it requires hard reset, which I do not consider yet.

It's Orange trying to backup the contacts
I had this too and was confused about where it had come from, then last night there was another icon that talked about the Orange network trying to back up my contacts.
So, find the application "Backup" in your applications, go to settings and set it to manual backup and set the reminder to off. This is what I have done and I haven't seen the orange icon since
just to be safe you could enable Contacts sync in your Google account to backup your contacts to google (if you don't mind google having this private data). and on the google contacts website you can even merge duplicates, scan contacts, revert to 30 day old backups and so on...actually quite a nice service!
This has been driving my wife to distraction for the last few weeks.
This fixed the annoying notification issue even though the program had never been run.
Thanks for the info.

uninstall
I've had this problem for a while too, I tried setting it to manual updates but it still seems to run and eat up my battery, I've uninstalled an update to see if this fixes it, is everyone else losing battery to this parasite still?
Solution
Hi, I was getting the same error after installing the latest HTC Desire HD update (on orange). The error message was associated with Orange's "Backup" application. To remove the message, I disabled the application. Go to Settings->Applications->Backup->Force Stop. The message went away and hasn't come back since.
Incidentally, this forum gave me a lot of hassle just to post a (hopefully helpful) reply. 3 different CAPTCHAs, and email verification?! You might get more replies on a forum that treats its users with some respect.
Easy....
settings>applications>manage applications>select 'Backup'>select 'Force stop'.
Done!

Hi
the best way to cure this is not to disable it.
simply switch of WiFi then go to app's, click backup and follow on screen instructions, once completed switch WiFi back on, done!
the backup app doesn't work on WiFi the first time it needs to sync, after that it works fine

Hi ...
I use jabber on my XDA as well as on my PC (firewall issues :? )
Currently, all Jabber servers have a major problem with the Yahoo transporter, as Yahoo team is sending a broadcasting messages and Jabber team tried to modify their transporter to stop this kind of messages.
I usually use Tipic.com, but its Yahoo service is down now. I found that "amessage.info" is working fine (at least for today ).
In all cases, if you went to www.jabber.org, you should find a link "public servres" which is updated by a list of Jabber servers and their support.
How to get iMov setup???
How do you get imov set up? I'm running 4.0.21 WM2003 and when I start up iMov and try to run the setup wizzard nothing seems to happen. I select which services I want to use it with, and press ok, but that's it. Nothing seems to happen.
Please help
I 'm so sorry dear .... I 'm not familiar with WM2003 ... I couldn't upgrade to any version ... u better check with any 2003 user
Good luck
Tell me how it works on yours...
Tell me, if you don't mind, how it works on your version and I'll try it on mine.
Thanx
Hi again ...
Nothing much more creating an account on one of Jabber servers (tipic.com is good) ... then register on each service with the required data (UIN for icq and ID for yahoo and e-mail address for MSN) ... you don't have to use the wizard. On the bottom bar press 'menu -> setup' ... if everything is correct, you should see the icon of each registered service in yellow ... if not, either its gateway is down, or you entered wrong data.
one more thing, in the login screen, you must see or enter the jabber server you registered with.
hope that will help ... good luck
where to add service name?
How do you add the jabber service name? From the Menu menu I tried setup, but when I press setup from the service setup screen nothing happens. I even tried under the advanced and put a jabber server there, but nothing happens. I'm sure I'm just missing something small.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanx again
Thanx for the help... I figured it out...
I finally figured it out. It defaults to auto-login, but since I hadn't logged in before I didn't get the login screen to enter my info. Once I unchecked that option I was able to login and use it...
Thanx for your help.

Has anyone have this issue with the email app?
One of my accounts shows -1/0 emails.
What gives with that, when I have no emails in that account. I have totally cleaned it out of all emails but yet I get -1/0.
Is there a way to correct this.

Mine never disappears though. Its always at -1 unless I recieve emails. But after i delete them its back at -1/0. its been like that for over a week now.
Has anyone been able to figure this one out. I just cant seem to get rid of the -1 on my email. Its only in that one yahoo.com account. I have other yahoo accounts as well, but they seem to be fine. I dont want to completely wipe the phone and set everything back up again. I have the phone just the way i like it.
just deleta that one account and re-set it. that should do it

I would if i could but its the first account that was made on the phone which if you have a vibrant and try to delete it. It tells you the only way to do it is to reset the whole entire phone to delete the account. Which I think is dumb in a way that was built. Also to note to delete that account, the account may be associated with other things like apps or whatever. Which I have no clue to which ones they are associated with since just about all my email accounts are associated with many things that use multiple email accounts. So basically I guess the only way is to just wipe the whole entire phone and start new.
Email sync and notifications
I set up my hotmail on the email. And it does not sync the account properly and never gives me notifications for new email.
Even when I refresh it, it doesn't load up all my emails.
I have deleted the account and set it up again, but that didnt help either..
HELPPP please! I need email on my phone!
Hey everyone, I was wondering if anyone else is having this same issue, and hopefully if anyone knows of a way to fix it.
Essentially what's going on is my phone is having issues syncing contacts on my main google account. I have five accounts on the phone (work, school, personal, etc.) and they all sync everything great, except my main google account, the one I've used for my contacts ever since my Nexus One days back in 2010. I've never had sync issues before on that phone, my iPhone 4S (using both exchange and CardDAV), or my Galaxy Nexus. I got the One two weeks ago and ever since I got it, it's been doing this strange thing where it syncs my contacts fine but in the accounts & sync section it tells me that "Sync is currently experiencing problems. It will be back shortly."
Screenshot:

In addition to this strange behavior, only about 10% of the contact photos show up on the phone (they are still present in gmail though). This is annoying because I don't always want to use the facebook photo for someone's contact, and also I have friends not on facebook.
Anybody know what's going on here?
P.S. I have 2-Step turned on but that has never given me issues on android before.
Thanks in advance guys!

hey sorry, very late to the game, but I hope you've figured this out. I had the same issue as well but think i just found the fix posted elsewhere. If you're still stuck, try this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=42257807&postcount=7
I hope someone here has seen this issue so they can give me some advice as viber support has been very slow and next to useless.
Basically I have a just came from a Xperia Z1 (Viber working) to a Nexus 5 and put on my defacto apps of which Viber is one of them and straight away after entering the phone number it said waiting for sms activation and a couple of seconds after it pops up with 'error' on the screen and that is all it says.
Prior to this I have had many android phones and never had an issue with activating viber.
Troubleshooting wise I have tried all of the below and nothing so far works.
1. Tried activating on wifi and 3g
2. Tried my wife's number on my nexus 5 which gets past the initial country code and phone number screen and tries to send an sms
3. Tried my number on my wife's phone and get the same lovely 'Error' popup
4. Placed my wife's sim card into my phone and activation works so proving this issue is number specific not phone specific.
The screenshot of the 'Error' is below.

Viber support seem to of gone very quiet and it looks like a Viber rep does lurk around here so bumping the thread to see if they can help me out.
Word of warning guys if any of you like myself installed the Android SDK and emulator to try and teach yourself programming then make sure Viber does not get installed if you login with your google account.
Basically this triggers their 'system' into thinking you are a spammer and they then block your number so you are unable to use Viber ever again on any device you own.
Viber support are next to useless and it looks like I will never be able to use Viber again despite doing absolutely nothing wrong whatsoever.
Viber support is blocked your GSM number
Viber support is blocked your GSM number, because of Viber spam politics, or something like this. I have the same problem with one of my GSM numbers. From Viber support answered me that they will never UNBLOCK this number (Viber politics and rules) , I already change my blocked GSM number...
Hi all,
I regularly use the Samsung Internet browser for checking out links in other apps. I recently decided I wanted to check out a link I viewef a couple months ago but when I view my browser history, I only see history up to "last month". This is confusing as I haven't cleared the history and I cant see any settings that would automatically clear the history on a schedule. Also, when I start to type the sites address it comes up with auto completion for the site but not the specific url which suggests its storing history of some kind past the "last month". Is there a way to force a full history view? Is this by design? If so it's a really poor design choice especially since there is no option to disable it. Any help would be appreciated.
I heard that deleted browsing history normally ends in the tempory buffer memory. After you closed the app or after still using it after deleting the browsing history, recovering is very difficult and can only be achieved with recovery tools wich mostly need root permissions and usb debuging and if you don't know how to use these tools this can lead to serious damage to your system. Developer tools might also help, but only if one has the knowledge to handle it.

I have the exact same problem, only like 1% of my actual browsing history is shown in the browser's history. And it's 2022 already, they still didn't fix it. I'm afraid if this is important to you, then you should choose a different browser because history is unusable in Samsung Internet.

I'm thinking its some kind of optimisation that helps the browser load faster. Imagine how long it would take to load the entire database of history in to memory. By only selecting a limited amount of records, the browser loading time will be reduced. Google does the same thing but when you scroll to the bottom of the list, it lazy loads more records. As I said in my post, the history is still there but only a limited amount is shown in the UI. I have a drop down now called "older" which are from a couple months ago but as I view more sites today, those in the older section disappear. This makes me think its based on a hard limit, for example, the last 100 history entries rather than based on am arbitrary date. Samsung should really come out and explain this so we can know for sure how it works.
Yes, history is there somewhere (my option to delete history lists 2050 items), but when you view the actual history, it only shows a fraction of those items. But I guess it doesn't bother enough people so they use this system and won't change it because it's been ages...
