I've searched until I'm blue in the face on this and am sorry if i've missed it somewhere, but with any version of ShoStock2 ICS (including the newest 2.2.2) I can't get exchange to show emails newer than 3 weeks ago. Older one's show up fine. Also I can send emails and they will come through on the PC, but never on the phone. I've flashed back to ShoStock 1.9.4 gingerbread, and exchange works flawlessly. I have tried connecting on wifi and over the air, both with the same results. I would very much appreciate any insight you all might have.
Edit: Forgot to mention, exchange works fine on AOKP and Phone-Bricker ICS roms.
No one has any thoughts or help on this?
Hi,
I've installed everything yesterday night. Everything including the exchange servers are working fine on my end. Could it be your setting by any chance?
I didn't use any other kernel, I used cherrypicker.
Exchange seems to be working fine at this end.
Running 2.2.2 and using exchange, no issues here. No to be a smart arse but you did wipe first right?

I always wipe data, cache, and dalvik twice before flashing a new ROM (thanks to the advice of the great group of people on XDA forums), and this is the only one that I've had any issue getting exchange to play nice with. It sets up fine and syncs all of my emails except newer than 3 weeks ago. I've ran at least 10 different ROM's including two other ICS versions with no issue on this. I've tried 4 different ShoStock2 ICS versions beginning all the way back to the the RC1 release, all with this same result. I've tried using different kernels with different releases, removing and resetting the exchange acount, rebooting, connecting on wifi and HSPA+, swapped the email apk, held my breath and stood on my head. Something is missing somewhere, but I'll be damned if I can find it.
Just to be certain that the problem still exists, I downloaded AOKP and ShoStock2 latest versions last night to try this again. I wiped everything twice prior to flashing and got the same results. Exchange loads every email from today-on with AOKP, but none newer that 3 weeks on ShoStock2. I hate to keep beating a dead horse, but surely someone else has some thought on this. The only thing I have not tried is running a kernel cleaning script. Does anyone think this might help?
The reason why I removed email/exchange apk from my rom was this exactly.
No idea why, but if included with the rom it will just causes problems so I added it as an addon in the kitchen.
I would clear cache/force stop both apps, remove them, then install them again by just grabbing them from the zip file.

Thanks for that reply! At least someone knows I'm not crazy. (I was starting to think I was). I actually ran your ROM a few releases ago, before kitchen was in it and it was pretty smooth. I may have to give it another go. Thanks again for the reply my friend!
Problem solved.
Well, I solved the problem (sort of). I said to hell with fighting to get the exchange working on ShoStock2, and installed LiLChris06's Phone-Bricker 2.5 ROM. This thing is freaking sweet and exchange works like a champ. I've been running this ROM hard now for about two hours with no force-closes, no lag, and the battery seems to be holding up incredibly.
Thanks LiLChris06!!!
Just FYI as i ran into similar problems with OMEGA and SHOStock2 roms, a single exhchange account seemed to run fine, but when i started adding the rest, i had similar issues with it not syncing new mail, and randomly NOT CONNECT to the exchange server in question. everything would setup fine, but eventually the exchange servers would just not update anymore after a couple hours.
if i went into the accounts/sync option in settings, then it would say it synced and would even give a current time, but would never display any new mail. if i went to "refresh" from within the mail app, the account would try to refresh, give an old date of the last refresh and then give the error: "connection error [exchange server name]"
i have not yet tried LilChris's option though, will try that once i get some extra time.

Are you saying that if you included it with the ROM it wouldn't work but if you installed it after the ROM was installed it would work fine?

Yea sounds crazy but that's how it worked for many others.
In the early releases when I included I got complaints left and right, when I added it as an addon it worked flawless for everyone.
i can attest to that (so far)..
i would get exchange issues within 1 hour almost certainly..
its been almost a full 20 hours now and i havent had a single exchange hiccup yet.
one thing that might be worth noting also, i think the app is different that LiLChris uses vs what some of the other devs are using.
i have exchange 2003, 2007, 2010 servers that i connect to..
the options for connecting to 2003 and 2010 (as well as 2007) are the same in the email app that LiLChris uses, such as syncing mail, contacts, calendar (only). 2007 allows syncing of tasks, and i know 2010 allows syncing of tasks and sms, which the email app should detect.
i dont sync tasks or sms, so not a big deal to me, but i did wonder if the actual email apps were different, or different versions, or maybe one was just modded? *shrugs*.

I'm on stock / rooted 4.5.91 for ATT Atrix. Prior to the GB update I was having daily issues with my exchange email, where I would get a "Connection Error" and only removing the account, rebooting, and re-adding the account would get it temporarily resolved. It would work for 1-2 days, then it would have the same issue happen again. Unchecking the "verify certificates" box seemed to help, but again only temporarily.
Now that I'm on GB I've only seen it once, but I'm still frustrated by it. My work email is important (if it was absolutely critical, I'd suck it up an get a BB), and I'm seriously annoyed by connection issues.
I'd like to try the AOSP email.apk and stock Android exchange sync setup, but not sure how to do that from where I am now. I assume it is harder than removing the existing email.apk and installing a new one.
I know the Aura ROM has the AOSP email built in, but not quite ready to go down the unlocked bootloader path. I'd like to keep my warranty in case the AOSP email doesn't work and I need to return the Atrix.
Anyone able to help?
Thanks.

I don't know the answer to your question, but are you sure it's not your corpo's fault? We run 4 exchange servers here and we have had no complaints about failed connections or anything of the sort, whether it's android, iPhone or otherwise. I have an Atrix and had it set up with my email since day one and I have had no issues at all.

Nope, not sure. But I do know numerous iOS and other Android users (mostly HTC phones, a few OG Droids) that don't have this issue.
I work at a small company so we have a hosted exchange service, and I had our IT guy remove and re-add the Activesync service for my account. That seemed to help for a day, but then back to the same problem.
I'd be willing to bet it is something that is incompatible between the Atrix and the exchange environment, but I've got limited access / visibility to that, and a variety of data points that do not have issues, so I'm trying this route.
Thanks for the input. If you have suggestions on things I can ask my provider to check / uncheck, I'm open.
Thus doesn't actually answer your question but I got tired of dealing with that from rom to rom so I just bought "enhanced email" from the market. Its $10 and gets around the pin requirement if you want to.
Sent from my Att Atrix 4g unlocked.
I had this start on my Captivate running Serendipity VII a few days ago and it is now completely shut down, no emails getting through. I use Enhanced Email as my email program. Very interested in discovering a solution.
on my BB, it took 30+ mins or even an hour to get emails. My exchange works perfectly on my Atrix, as it did on my Inspire. Its probably your phone
Agreed EE is awesome. We use it on 14 different phones in my office.
Last time I tried to get rid of Corporate Sync I kept getting FC's afterwards.
I recommend using the exchange app included in CM roms. It's based on AOSP but has some mods like email signature, and on your atrix the account will show up next to the google accounts in settings menu.
go download a CM zip from http://www.cyanogenmod.com/devices/nexus-one and then extract system/app/email.apk to your phone and install it. then just add the account in settings.
I had issues with company exchange servers and went to Moxier Mail, they have a free 7 day trial then for $19.00 you get it all, contacts, calendar, email, tasks.....stays connected except when I changed my password (every 60 days). Then I had to remove and reload, but that was only issue....very reliable.....

Appreciate the help. Got the file extracted then realized I had one more question - do I need to change the name, or is it ok to have 2 "email.apk" applications?
I realize it is a total noob question, but figure better to ask than to screw something up.
you can just install it. the blur version is titled BlurEmail.apk. if a conflict were to arise - it would ask you to overwrite. the system identifies apps differently so just renaming it wont change how it installs.
ex. Google+ shows up as "Google+" but the system seems and calls on com.google.android.apps.plus
All of the sudden I can't use Google Talk. It says connection interrupted. I've tried older versions of the apk. I've tried clearing everything. Even reinstalling the complete ROM. This only happens on the stock or stock based roms. I've been using android for a long time but never seen this before. Anyone else have this problem or suggestions?

hi guys,
Hopefully this is the right forum but if it is not, i apologize. Anyway, i recently moved from a GB rom to ICS rom (AOKP and now on SHOstock2) and i have to say that i LOVE SHOstock. however, there is one issue that is shaping up to be a showstopper for me and that is the Exchange service that is killing my battery as well as giving me some other problems like push emails not coming through every once in a while. i did quite a bit of reading both here and on google and from what i can tell, the issue with Exchange service killing battery and misbehaving is actually a problem with ICS and not a particular rom. On GB, i used to get about 1-3% per hour drain and now i am at about 15% and i can see that mail.exchange is keeping the phone awake most of the time with a wakelock (unplugged at 6am today and i am seeing about 3 hours of wakelock).
i already tried some of the suggestions that are out there like removing the calender sync, deleting and readding the account, using different mail clients etc.. but all have the same exact result. am i screwed? do i have to go back to GB if i want to keep my Exchange?
while i am at it, anybody else notice some issues with Wifi switching? it takes me about 2 minutes to get data after i turn wifi off and i already tried 3 different modems including the latest leaked one.
thanks in advance.
I'm on AOKP and my exchange works just fine. No battery drain issues or anything. No issues with the wifi switching either. Unplugged for 4 hours so far today and at 94% right now.
Did you do full wipes between flashing?
No issue here with Exchange, I run my own server and do not use autodiscover for settings. No abnormal battery drain. However, I have read that some are experiencing drain and its normally due to configuration of the account on the device. What to change exactly, I'm not sure but double check your settings.

yep, full wipe between flashes as well as cache wipe and delvik wipe.

i triple checked my settings and they are actually identical to the settings that i had when i was on GB. this is such a weird thing since it happened both on AOKP and on SHOstock and i already tried different modems.
checkout enhanced email, otherwise ya definately do a full wipe backup your stuff, i had the problem then i formatted my internal sd card, and in ClockworkMod i wiped cache/dalvik/data fixed my problems right up
i am using Enhanced Email right now (i much prefer it to anything else i tried). i am doing a few more tests but if i can't get it to work, i am going to do full wipe and flash SHOstock again and see if it helped.

Were you having these issues on the stock email app? I've read that the calendar sync from enhanced email caused a big battery drain.
I did try the stock email and it was actually worse. Oh and I have Calender sync disabled in both email clients.

Is your phone abnormally warm? I had an issue with something not syncing correctly, so exchange was constantly trying to sync and killing the battery. I deleted the accounts and re-added, syncing things one at a time and it worked.
I run two exchange accounts, my work and personal, and I have no issues now.
Aokp here, not a single issue to report with exchange

alright, i once again disabled all calender syncs and removed and re added the exchange account. with Enhanced Email, so far i don't see the exchange service acting weird so i will monitor it through the day and report back.
alright, another update:
after switching to enhanced email and disabling calender sync, i did a few more tests yesterday. i charged my phone to 100%, reset all the timers and left it over night. i woke up today to 94% battery and deep sleep was about 98% and there was only about 8 seconds of wake locks from email. it looks like everything is working as it should now but i will update again if the issue returns.
I sync my own exchange server as well as the one I administer from work. I too had random sync failures and drain using the stock Samsung email app included in shostock. The Samsung email app from GB was fine.
The ICS email app from CM9/AOKP works great. Only thing missing is sync scheduling. Quiet hours is a decent replacement. Looks like you found a workaround, just saying you're not alone.

I've had nothing but issues with the stock ICS Email/Exchange app, it won't recognize/authenticate me - no issues when using GB.
However, K9 and Touchdown both work fine. Touchdown works so well I was planning on buying it but now I read some reviews where they are not supporting rooted/custom roms so I may just stick with K9.
I have been on all of the versions of Shostock2 and I have not had any issues with exchange other than when I flashed V1 where I had exchange wake lock issues. I resolved it by wiping and re flashing and have had no issues since.

No Exchange issues to report, un-modded yakju IMM76I OTA.
I work for a big corporation, so I connect to Exchange servers supported by corporate IT.
I'm currently on I9100XWLP7, but this is already the third ICS version where this happens randomly. I always did a full wipe before and after flashing, and I did not restore any Settings using Titanium Backup (in fact, restoring System Settings always causes trouble).
The Problem is not the application (K9, Social Hub, Android stock ecc.) you are using, but the stock Exchange ActiveSync implementation of ICS. This Problem also happens on some ICS 4.0.4 Nexus, so actually there is no hope for a decent solution with the current 4.0.3 on the SGS2.
Deleting and re-adding the accounts helps for some days, or even weeks, but eventually it will reappear.
I noticed that disconnections between the Server and the device seem to be crucial for this to happen. The last time I did a full wipe the SGS2 worked flawlessly for about one week, until we had a Problem with the HDSL in our company. After restoring the connection, the Problem reappeared and since them every now and then the SGS2 gets hot and I have a massive battery drain, no mather what Settings (even Default Settings don't work).
This does not happen on any device with GB.
Stopping the Exchange Services sometimes helps. They will be restarted next time you open the email app. If you are lucky, than it's solved for some hours, if not, it continues to cause massive wakelocks.
You described my symptoms exactly.
Do you know if Touchdown uses the same service or implemented their own?

I posted this in another forum, and no response. Hoping someone can help. Perhaps I missed an FAQ somewhere.
I searched and found the "sync is currently experiencing problems it will be back shortly" problem that others are experiencing, but most of the issues seem to be with the contacts. My problem is with the internet sync. See screenshot. Here's what I've tried:
- Searched this forum and Google
- Cleared the stock internet browser data / cache
- Factory reset on previous ROM and tried again
- Flashed another ROM (after full wipe)
- Since I use 2-step authentication, I tried disabling and re-logging in
None of those things worked. Everything is syncing fine except internet. I love the feature, but it is not a showstopper for me. It is important to understand the problem is in the Accounts & sync settings only, so swapping the browser shouldn't make a difference. {Edit: switching to Chrome browser didn't make a difference)
I am on ViperRez 1.0.3, stock browser. Previously, I was on Nils' Business ICS 4.0.3 Sense 3.6 which had the Google Now installed on it. The problem started when the Google Now servers wet down a few days ago. Since then I've had this internet sync problem. Not sure if that is related.
Is there anything I can reset? Any other suggestions? Any more information I should provide?

GOOGLE. and all it side add ons have alot of people and accts.. at any particular time a server can be experiencing maxamim capacity as im sure most of us has seen this happen on face book and good OLD myspace as well. its usually momentary but can last for days.. i get it alot for my email sync but im constantly syncing things.. my contacts too cuz i resync them everyfew days to make sure everythings in google and not just my phone.. hopefully youll see it come back soon.
Thanks, I've been waiting a week but I'll hang on and wait some more. Like I said, not a huge deal but it would be nice again to have that feature.
Have you tried turning that sync off and then back on?
Yes, I try that once a day. Happened on a freshly flashed rom. Just strange.

Same issue (with browser) here. Fresh flash of cm10.1 jb v4.2.2 kindle fire first gen. So?
So I was using the CM11 mod for my fascinate for about 2 months. The first 2 weeks of using it, it was awesome. After that, my RAM was going down for no reason, and i had some problems but i could fix it by optimizing my device.
A few days ago, my phone kept crashing. I kept on getting messages that Trebuchet had failed, Clock had failed, Play Store Services have failed, etc. Today morning, almost everything on my phone failed. It would just keep reloading the home page. I restarted my device several times, but after that nothing would really load.My battery had about 93% charge and i went to school. When it was 3rd period in school, my battery was 15%. I had no applications running. I just turned it off
When i got home, it would load but everything was slow. i optimized, cleared cache and everything but it wouldn't work. When i open an app, it takes a long time to load. The home screen, and menu pop us normally, but the apps are slow. I really dont know what to do and what ROM to move onto next. Im not getting a new phone for a while, and i really need help.
What ROM should i flash? I need something stable, that wont have problems like this. I also like to use Facebook a lot.
Please help me with my problem because i really want my phone to work. I bought the phone for $200 and it was a bad decision, since all these problems started occurring. What ROM would be the best for me?
@samsung striker
Wow, you have a lot going in there...
Hopefully when you say cm11, it's the version from unjust 06/04/14
That thing is ridiculously stable...
I'll start off with this, Facebook and any fb messenger apps are huge memory hogs.
Next, i saw you mention optimize several times, what program are you using to do that with?
The particular problem i see with the fascinate right now is browsing and using social media sites fill up the cache folder quickly. When that happens the phone well act like you have described.
You can easily fill the cache on one or two days depending on how heavily you browse.
At a minimum, what i think you need to do is boot into recovery and wipe cache and davlik.
Then reboot and let it rebuild things, if things don't smooth out within 15 minutes of booting up, go ahead and reboot again to see if it clears up.
It's very possible if you filled up the cache it probably tried to write information somewhere else and why it freaking out
I would recommend ever other day wiping cache from in recovery and you should be real safe with things and the ROM would be very stable.
If you have done that and are still having issues,,,
Or if you at ready to sacrifice losing your call history and text history and apps etc,,, Go ahead in recovery and do the factory reset,,, it will wipe your apps and stored data (not download items like music or zip files) & put everything back just like you did a fresh install of cm11, so you have to set up all your preferences and gapps and other apps you want all over again
.
Yea i use Facebook a lot. I like to download a lot of apps and most of the time it works fine, but sometimes these problems start to occur, followed by a lot of lag.
When i optimize my device, i optimize it with this program called "Smart Booster." I also use this other app called "Fast Reboot."
Anyways, ill try what you suggested and see if it works well. If it doesn't work out for me, do you have any other Rom's in mind that are better for me?
Thanks.
I had the same issue pop up a week or two ago. Cleared cache and Dalvik on a semi-regular basis (although I probably browse less than it sounds like you do) but it didn't do too much for me. Ended up on the most recent CM 10.1 nightly and only installed the apps I use regularly instead of my usual restore of every app that had a TiBu backup. It's been working great for me over the past week or so. Personally, I couldn't handle the data drops on CM 11 any longer either, so CM 10.1 has been a good solution on that front.

Grab the latest nightly from the CyanogenMod site - I PM'd you the link since I can't post them here.
I booted into recovery, wiped data/cache/dalvik and installed the zip. It failed, I rebooted back into recovery, and installed the zip again and it worked without a hitch. Very similar to flashing CM 11.

So i flashed it, and it was working pretty good. I downloaded a few apps such as Messenger, Kik, TB, Smart Lock, and Clash of clans. It was working well, until i used Facebook Messenger, which made it lag just a little. I used clash of clans, and it did lag a little so i had to get Smart Booster, and optimize.
I like to download a lot of apps so im not sure how my device would handle it, since im experiencing a little lag from these few apps. Did you download similar apps as me? Also, do you like to download a lot of apps? Im just asking just to see how well your Fascinate runs compared to mine.
Again, thanks for the help. My Fascinate runs better now
Im gonna try to get a custom kernel and see what happens.
I found that when I installed ALL of my apps that the phone would slow down significantly. I just have the essentials now - a few games, a few social apps, and some other items, well below what I had earlier. The Fassy didn't respond too well when I had a ton of apps on there, so I scaled back and it seems to be working a lot better for me. The single-core can only handle so much - hopefully Devil or another kernel will help you out if you need additional apps!

Yea that's the bad thing about the fascinate, and i don't think there are any kernels for Cm 10.1 because I searched online, and couldn't find anything.
Check out HHP's thread in the General section - plenty of JB kernels to choose from. I think Devil was the most widely liked from that group if I remember correctly.
