Using cell data (not wifi, because it works fine with wifi), I cant refresh in my gmail app to check for new emails. I leave background data off. This was never an issue with any other device.
Any suggestions?
If I turn background data on, it works just fine, but I prefer to leave it off.
Without background data checked on, I don't believe you can. You could go to the gmail mobile site, but meh...

Why would this new version of gmail act this way but gmail for Gingerbread allowed that function?
Weird!
How'd it work with it off? Do you remember the steps?

No sure what you mean? With account synch off and only 3g, there is always the refresh button for the gmail app...
Never mind, yeah weird

I was wondering if there was an app to find out witch apps are trying to use data.
I live in BC Canada.
Data rates here are insane, so I don't have a data plan.
I have most things set to manual update.(so I can update off wifi)
My main issue is rogers likes to send me a text whenever my phone tries to use data, not so nice at 3 am, or whatever time..it's random.
I just want to know what I should do?
Any ideas?

You could disable data traffic in network settings. Mine still receives MMS, so you won't lose that. Or you could modify the APN settings
I'll give it a go.

Originally I had it disabled.
I'm guessing I switched it on somewhere along the way.
I want data but wow does it ever cost ya here in canada.

My phone shows the syncing icon 24/7. I have rebooted and also checked which apps are syncing. I don't have any custom apps that sync, only the Google apps. Under settings, it shows gmail and everything syncing but they just never finish. Anyone have this glitch?

Did you install the update? I think the update is suppose to fix this. I haven't installed the update but I have also not seen this happen on my device yet.
No, I haven't updated. I was trying to avoid because I don't want to miss out on root, but I guess I'm going to have too because this is killing my battery.

LOL....i just sent HTC another email about this.....i constantly get the SYNC icon in the NOTI bar....and in "accounts and sync" its not showing anything syncing....
Well I just went into system updates and updated the HTC software only. It fixed the problem so if I don't get root in the next three weeks this phone is going back to Sprint.

Too funny. You sent an email about an issue they already released a fix for.

This worked for me. If you created an HTC Sense account it's set to sync whenever anything changes (Push). Go to Settings-Accounts & Sync- click on HTC Sense and change the update schedule to something less ridiculous like an hour or more instead of push. Hope that helps.

If you guys haven't applied the updates then I wouldn't send HTC an email. The problem as far as I know has been resolved with the updates.
Hello all,
I have a question. Do any of you awesome XDA Peeps know of an app that allows you to select what apps sync with wifi and what apps can use the data provided by cellphone company?
I have a whopping 200mb from AT&T and I keep my mobile data turned off. I use quick settings to turn it on or off. I would like to be able to receive and send emails from my phone, but I don't want my phone to keep syncing or searching for updates, like facebook or weather. The problem I have when I turn my mobile data off is, if someone is sending me a text with a picture, I have to turn my mobile data on or else I wont be able to see the picture because my phone won't automatically download it.
Or is this something that has to be done per app?
I thank you in advanced!

I am assuming you can't download using your data plan?
Check your settings and see if you have a data limit checked on. This might stop you from using the data for apps etc . I think try enabling background data too. (Press menu in your data usage page for the options to tick) make sure you don't put a limit and enable mobile data

I would bet that you need to check (and change) your APN settings, if you aren't able to use mobile data properly.
Google for your provider's settings and enter them accordingly.

Whenever I toggle mobile data on/off the phone freezes but the power button will still toggle the screen on and off but the device will not respond until it eventually reboots. This happens when I turn wifi off, but not on, or when airplane mode is toggled. I have tried from settings and the status bar.
I'm running Stock, rooted, deodexed from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2044351 along with the APN editor flash (method 1) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2044449 with Setup Wizard frozen. I also have extsd2internalsd http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2036796 installed to utilize my 64gb sd card.
I tried to get a logcat using adb logcat *:W *:S but it was empty.
Anybody know what's going on before I wipe and try again?
Thanks
As weird as this sounds it appears to have been FB Messenger. Clean installs worked so I reinstalled one by one and this was the only app to cause the device to hot boot when toggling wifi or mobile data.

Nevermind, FB Messenger wasn't the culprit.
It turns out it was the AT&T VM Viewer app (for U-Verse VM). No problems if it's just installed but if you are logged in then whenever the apps loses connectivity (toggling wifi, mobile data, airplane mode, etc) the phone hot boots. This just reminded me the app would FC on my old Incredible 2 when the connection state changed.
