Anyone point me in the right direction here? I'm pretty sure there are some threads covering this but I can't find them.
Mines a standard HD2 from O2. I've had it for a while and every so often after a soft reset, a load of my email accounts are deleted - just leaving the hotmail and outlook account (my pop 3 account disappears) If I restore the previous night's backup data (I backup daily), they all re-appear, but it's a pain because then when I then try and sync it with AS, I get the message 'there's been a change on the server that requires the whole of your device to be re-synced' (or something like that) Which takes an age
Wondered if anyone else had experienced 'disappearing email accounts' and whether there's a fix?
AFAIK I've always had this problem - but in the past it only deleted them occasionally. This week, after almost EVERY reboot, the email accounts have been deleted
Thanks guys!

hey guys,
I've been having a problem with my gmail calendar not syncing, which is very important to me. Not sure if anyone else has this issue. It worked for about 2 weeks then stopped. I still got email, but not sure if my contacts were syncing. I tried the manual sync in Accounts and it said it was synced, but it wasn't. No phone to gmail or gmail to phone on the calendar. I set up a multiple day event (every thursday) and that was when it stopped working.
Anyway, here's how I got it working again. I went into Settings/Applications/Manage Applications, then the ALL tab. First I opened the Calendar Sync Adapter and Clear Data. (That didn't fix it, but I'm not sure if it fixed something else, but this is all the steps I took.) Next was Calendar and Clear Data. (Still no fix). Lastly was Calendar Storage and Clear Data. I'm not sure if the last one was the important one or it was a combination of all three, but that seemed to fix it. I had to re-enter all the events that were originally inputted through my phone so you might want to write those down, but now my phone goes both ways... with gmail... haha. Hope this saves someone some time.
Oh, and I'm stock 2.2.2 not rooted.
What bloat ware have u frozen/uninstalled also you could try force stopping you calender and clearing data and reboot idk if it will do ne thing but its worth a shot
I'm unrooted stock. I haven't frozen or uninstalled any bloatware. I cleared the data and that seemed to do the trick for a day. Now I'm starting to have the same problem again. I haven't rebooted since so I guess I'll try that.
Has anyone experienced this before?
My phone goes through phases of reloading old, read mail. It notifies to say there's new mail but its not normally visible, so I scroll down and find that some mail that has been read but not deleted has now been highlighted, as if it hasn't been read.
I have the settings for this account set to keep the past 7 days of mail and is set to Push email during the day, and its set up via the Social Hub. Sometimes after reading a deleting a message the phone immediately alerts me that there is New mail, only to find it has reloaded old mail as new! Its as if it feels the need to replace any spaces in the 7 days of mail. This only happens with Hotmail, not Gmail.
I've tried deleting and reloading the Hotmail account but it doesn't change things, I even did a complete wipe of the phone the last time it started doing this but it didn't help. Eventually it stopped doing it by itself. Unfortunately, its started to do it again.
Its an non branded, UK spec phone, running standard 2.3.4
I switched to the Rezound over Christmas from the DInc, and I'm still having the same problem. I have all my contacts stored on Google. When I set up my phone, I can do an initial sync and get all of my contacts over, but anytime after the initial sync, on Accounts and Sync-> Google-> Sync Contacts, I have the red exclamation mark and a sync error. Won't resync.
I've contacted HTC a couple of times, the first time, he had me clear my Contacts Storage on Applications, again, this was like the initial sync, worked, but wouldn't resync. Called again today and he had me do a few other "clears" first, then Contacts Storage again, which worked but wouldn't resync after. He wanted me to do factory reset. Ok, I have done this in the past too, it does fix the problem.
Has anyone else gone thru this? What can I do?? This is getting frustrating, putting in a contact on my phone, only for it to be gone after hard reset and not merging with my Google acct. Please help! Thanks
I recently solved a real pain of an email issue I was having, and wanted to pass along the experience. I had tried searching these forums for several days, but didn't quite find my problem, and didn't find the solution all in one place. With that in mind, I'm hoping this information helps someone, even if a bit of it may be covered in other threads (sorry if so).
I had upgraded recently to JB 4.1.1, and was having a lot of problems getting my corporate/exchange email account to work. The calendar and contacts would work sometimes, and the email never got past the "waiting for sync" screen. Anytime the calendar and contacts would work, they would break after a reboot of the phone.
I also found that sometimes exchange account would stick around after it stopped working, and other times it would disappear (from the Android settings > accounts list) completely. I had set the accounts up both through the stock email app, and through a third - party email app (Enhanced Email, a good app).
I tried deleting and recreating the accounts, with varying settings (port numbers, accepting all security certificates, etc.). Later on, I went to my company's online web access for Exchange, and deleted all the mobile connections so that it would create a new connection for my current phone and ROM. I recreated the account (for what seemed like the 50th time) after that. Still no good.
The thing that made the difference: I finally read a tip somewhere to force stop the (stock) email client, and clear its cache and data. After that, the email app needed to be set up again, but email synched for the first time since I installed this ROM, and my calendar and contacts work reliably. It's been several days and reboots, and no further problems have come up.
I hope this helps someone, and again, apologies if the information is duplicative. I couldn't find it all in one place, and was really beating my head against the wall trying to find a fix.

Hi there, I think im glad i found this thread although not sure it will help with my corporate mail problem. My problem exists only with contacts not syncing from my corporate exchange account. My mail and calendar is ok just no contacts sync.
You mention to force stop the stock email client, can you advise the steps and exact name of the process? Do you mean in manage apps - All - Email ? I cant seem to stop that process its all greyed out.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, due to my role i really need my exchange contacts to sync.
Cheers,
Hi guys,
My experience is different.
If you have problems to sync your email you need to clear all previous mobile connections from outlook (via outlook web access) and set up your account from zero on the device.
Quick question why do you use a third party email client? Do you have Samsung device? Got the same problem and had to move to a asop (CM10)
Samsung email client and exchange doesn't work well since the original Galaxy.

solution for me
For me what solved was a solution I found in another post here in the forum: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1774978&page=2
In summary:
"Settings --> Data Usage --> Menu --> and check Auto Sync Data
Try setting up Exchange account again and you'll see the prompt to activate a Device Administrator this time. "
