Previously, my S2 didn't have this issue of it perpetually syncing. However, all of a sudden it kept syncing and doesn't stop. Meaning that when I look in the Accounts & Sync, the white syncing symbol keeps coming up now and then, perhaps every minute or so. Any idea what's going on?
I actually disabled the sync for Contacts and this stopped. I'd prefer to leave Sync Contacts on so please don't give suggestions to turn it off.
I'm using CheckROM RevoHD v4 and Siyah Kernel 2.6.11.

For some reason recently my Vibrant gets stuck with the sync symbol on (white circle with two circular arrows). Sometimes it stops my text messages from sending or receiving, today texts are working (for now).
The symbol is the usual one that comes up when Gmail is syncing, but mine has been staying on for hours at a time and I believe interrupting on normal phone functions, anyone have any idea what it means and why?
Samsung Vibrant rooted with a few bloatware removed (a week before this issue started) Nandriod backup and a few irrelevant apps.
Whats going on here???
Go to sync settings, click on your google account, uncheck things you don't want to sync.
Uncheck calendar just in case.
Go back and cut off auto sync.
Reboot
Sync icon gone?
Go back and cut on calendar and auto sync.
Did it work?
I see the sign next to the calender and it may be where my issues are coming from. Now that I think of it all this happened right after I upload a ton of scheduling crap to my google calender via the phone (bored in class) one day. I will check to see if everything is loaded and go ahead and remove the auto sync. I do like having my crap sync automatically though. Sigh another thing I have to give up on the Vibrant vs my old slow MyTouch 3g
This thing also eats the crap out of my battery, I get 12-16hrs of battery life depending on use, with this sync on I get less than 8hours.
Today the phone drained from fully charged to 20% in some hours. Noticed the sync icon was on despite sync setting was off. Looked in accounts, and the calendar was trying to sync\ seemed stuck.
Enabled sync then unchecked calendar and checked it again, for now it seems ok.
Any ideas what may have caused this? If this happens it can drain the phone fast
switch off data in background , may be solve your problem ...

You probably have auto sync on as well...
background data and auto sync was off...
Looked in settings and under account noticed that the calendar sync was stuck\trying to sync every few minutes.
So enable auto sync, uncheck then check calendar again, then turn off auto sync seems to have worked.
In normal use the battery doesnt last long, this bug drained the phone in 8 hours.
I'm running Calkulin's rom and ever since I installed it, I randomly get the syncing icon in the status bar. It stays there for a while and keeps my tab up when I try to put it to sleep. Big battery drain. I've tried fcing different apps that I thought were the culprit, but nothing seems to work. Is there a way to see what's syncing? Or, does anyone have any ideas what might be going on?
turn your gmail sync off
I was thinking it was gmail too. How do I turn off sync? I've checked the main settings menu, but I don't see under accounts and sync where to do it. This rom uses tnt's menu layout.
Hey guys,
I wonder if any of you has the same issue as me.. Basically, when phone is connected via WiFi it barely syncs Gmail/Facebook twice a day, I can go for hours without seeing a new email notification on the phone.. When it's on Data/3G it syncs properly and I'm getting a notification as soon as the email comes in.. I've checked everything on the phone, and I can't seem to find anything which would explain this behavior.. Currently I had to set Keep Wi-Fi on during sleep to never in order to have sync working properly when I'm at home..
Btw. stock ROM, haven't touched anything since I've purchased it.
Any ideas?

Do you notice any other internet connection irregularities when on wifi? e.g. after a deep sleep if you try the browser it fails to load the page straight away and takes a refresh?
No, after I wake up the phone when it's on wifi during sleep - internet works fine.. Ie. I can load websites in the browser, open up Google Play, lookup Imdb from the application etc. Everything is working fine apart from the phone syncing my mails and everything else while it's on Wifi/Sleeping. Checking the last time it synced in Settings >> Accounts and sync also shows that it synced last time hours ago (it didn't even try to sync while it's on wifi).
Can someone please test this if it happens on other phones as well?
I've been having a problem the last couple of days where my DNA, when auto-sync is enabled, is constantly syncing my google account. In Accounts & Settings, I can see the sync icon rotate, the text will say "Last sync [today's date and time]" followed almost immediately by it syncing again followed by "Last sync [today's date and updated time]".
I've tried it while connected to different Wifi connections, as well as on 4g. I've also tried removing and re-adding the google account with no change. Anyone have any ideas? Thanks.
