Hi
I have my zubia z7 max for about half a year, maybe more
Running cm on it is nice but i'm having 2 annoying problems:
1.the device sometimes get laggy and sometimes is every 4 minutes
2. the battery is draining quickly in compare to the original rom with the same apps
I prefer the original and official but i get to even more annoying problems:
1. I can't save a new contact directly to my exchange (office365) account - only gmail or local. Tried almost every app for syncing my exchange.
2. Sync.me (and most of the apps that need to start on startup) doesn't automatically start. Every reboot i need to open those apps manually. I gave them the permission in the Nubia guard.
Can someone help me on any of those problems? I prefer the original rom but i must have the option to save directly to exchange
Thank you!!!

What'll drain more battery, the Samsung e-mail app on push 24/7 (with a single Gmail account), or the Gmail app with sync?
only one way to really find out since every ones phone behaves differently, try each one over two or three days.see how each one goes.
If you use the email app and set sync to just a few hours instead of a few minutes you may find that it uses less juice than gmail (you can also set gmail to sync less often)
If you choose to use one rather than the other don't forget to freeze the other app as they are system apps and will continue to run in background even if they are unconfigured

How do you change gmail to sync less often?
Thanks
The drain is not that bad, I always have mine on normal sync and drain is expected but not as bad it it seems using Gmail app.
I use Exchange on the Samsung App and that drains battery as there's a bug in the source code but not sure how that affects POP3/Imap.
It's a smartphone at the end of the day just enjoy it and charge nightly
Email App Error
Hi,
I am facing an error with my email app. Since i upgraed t GB 2.3.6 the app wont mark messages as read as soon as it is read. If i open the gmail app and mark a mail as read, then after a few minutes the email app also marks it as read, else stays as unread. Any help or suggestions appreciated. Thanks in Advance.
I'm running on CF-Root + Siyah 1.2.6 kernel + stock ROM (+ modified NFC_screen off). ROM is XXLE8.
I've been using the stock email since the begining (with only root & stock rom) with 3 Exchange accounts synced.
Email app is taking forever to launch. Navigation in email app is laggy.
Whenever I want to move emails to subfolders, it takes ages to get the whole list.
I'm still running a Samsung Captivate Glide (Rogers ROM, root, OC @1.3GHz) with Android 2.3.5 : email stock app synced with these 3 exhange email accounts: it is clearly faster, no latency at all.
Even when it comes to load the same subfolders to move emails ...
Right now, it is really the worse "email user experience" I had.
Thought ICS would do better than that. :-(
Anybody else experiencing this ?
Is there any tweaks to make this app much, much faster ...
Is there a way to replace this "Samsung stock email app" (I guess) with the standard ICS one (only if it is faster) ?
Thanks
i have noticed none of the problems you experied with the email app. though i am only using it with one account synced. The app launches instandly and never lags or something similar, try removing 2 of your accounts and see if the problem is still there. its the only thing i can think of now, if the problem persists maybe another app you installed interferes with the email app and causes problems or...?

I removed one account ...same. Slow as "usual".
I remoed 2 accounts (only one left) ... same.
I wiped the whole device. Reset to factory defaults.
Loaded one Exchange account: email app was definitely faster.
Added a second one (Exchange) ... started to get slow ... Not as slow as it was, but slower.
Found a thread mentionning a way to replace Samsung stock email app with ICS email app. Going to try that...
Same very annoying problem here.
Any chance to get the stock nexus email apk here?
Question. If I turn off autosync for Whatsapp will it stop being able to send and recieve messages?
You will be able to send and receive messages if autosync is off.

I stopped Whatsapp auto-sync but it keeps turning back on again (not immediately though). I believe it was re-enabled by Whatsapp background service.
Other than uninstalling the app, how do I disable Whatsapp auto-sync and make it stay that way?
Why would you disable it in first place?
I see no reason to becasue it only uses very little data I believe, maybe even none.
And it is very useful, because i you disable it, whatsapp won't be able to see wether your contacts have whatsapp or not.
I would just leave it enabled
Whatsapp uses about 20k a day just syncing. That's about 600k a month. This may not be much in the grand scheme of things but it's 600k more than necessary. And I don't like app's phoning home when it's not necessary.
I don't sit around adding new phone contacts every 5 minutes and I'm quite happy to manually sync when I need to (once in a blue moon). If it wasn't for gmail I'd have auto-sync turned off.
The only way I can think of doing this is to hack the apk and remove the write sync permissions... but then you'd have to do that for every update.
I've used apktool to remove the sync write permissions from whatsapp and so far it seems to be working ok; Still need to check it's effects on battery though.
If anybody wants to try this you can find instructions and tools here.
You'll need to make 2 versions of the apk:
The first version is unchanged but is needed so that the signatures match with the second version. You should uninstall the original version completely then install the first version so that the sync entry is created for whatsapp.
For the second version you need to edit the manifest file and remove the line that gives sync write permissions. This version needs to be installed over the top of the first so that the sync entry for whatsapp is already created. You can do this through adb with the command 'adb install -r yourwhatsapp.apk'.

Plz stop with this Promotion thing. You are breaking the rules.
If your app is so very useful it will automatically get featured on XDA.

WA sync causing problems with large number of contacts on GT-i9000

After much monitoring of my good old Galaxy S GT-I9000 on 2.3.6 XXJW4 and its countless freezes and auto reboots I realised the culprit seemed to be WhatsApp auto syncing address book to its servers.
I reached this conclusion after (i) freezing WhatsApp and seeing the problem disappear and (ii) not freezing WhatsApp but deleting full address book and the problem seemingly disappearing as well.
I 'only' have 2,700 contacts and I uploaded them onto the phone via Google Sync, importing the Outlook file into the Gmail account (and using it to deduplicate contacts etc).
I have tried both deleting the WhatsApp autosync account from the Account list on the phone and also manually disabling WA autosync but (i) the account will pop back up every time after some minutes, autosync enabled and all and (ii) autosync will turn itself back on automatically as well.
I have indeed disabled 'show hidden contacts' in WA settings to no avail (if purposefully enabling it, the Account and / or autosync seemed to come back instantly, together with the 'syncing' notification on the status bar).
I am simultaneously using Telegram and BBM as well as Facebook messaging and Twitter and it is only WhatsApp wreaking havoc with my phone.
I would be very interested to know if anyone else has experienced the same issue?
Cheers

I'm also experiencing the same problem. Auto sync always turns itself back on. I hate it when apps don't obey my command.
The main reason why I don't want autosync is because Android is powerless against so-called 'read only contacts' it can only offer to hide them instead of deleting them.
If I decide to delete a contact which happens to also be tied to whatsapp, Android can only hide the contact (and I don't want that).
I recently got to know an app called whatsapp+ but I don't know if it solves this problem.

Having this EXACT problem and tried everything you did too. It's really bothering me, I have to open messenger every couple of hours just to find old messages that I should have replied to.
I noticed that when I launch it, there's a brief "no internet connection" message, but just like you I gave it unrestricted access, background permissions, and enabled wi-fi and mobile data to run while phone is locked. I have problems with WhatsApp too though, every time I open it it downloads a bunch of new messages.
Also I don't have Play Services. Installing it causes other apps to glitch out for me, it seems. Maybe this is my issue?
I am not facing any issue with whatsapp and wechat..
And my messenger is solved for now after contacting Honor team..
They asked me to give same access to Facebook app (i.e unrestricted access and background running) and it solved the problem...
You should try the same hopefully it will work for you

tried this, but still won't work
hello everybody,
I have been having issues with Gmail App (stock from Play Store) for a while now and I have reached a point where i am seriously thinking dumping it from the phone. Why? Notifications of new emails do not appear in real time - I can be fine with 2 minutes, whatever.
So i have tried all the "recommended steps" from the useless Gmail Help Section, clearing cache, resetting the app etc. Still, the issue persists, at times i can see emails sent to me like 2 hours ago, that you can only see when pulling down the menu.
I do have quite a bit of emails in sent like 4000 emails but it's not millions and should handle that yes?
I have just NOW removed completely gmail app, uninstalled updates, restarted the phone and re-installed it and updated it, and same thing again.
On the other hand, the emails sent with the Samsung Stock Email App works beautifully, emails are sent and received, say if you email yourself in matter of seconds, that is using my own server of course.
So, is there a way to fully reset / flush / reinstall / reinitialize the Sync system onto the phone for Google stuff (have also tried to tick untick stuff, nothing)? I don't have root access but i can do stuff on it.
many thanks,
Gabrio
and here's a real world example. sent an email from my outlook account, first one came immediately - great, then sent a second one and didn't show up. it's already 10 minutes past that.
and here's how the sync section looks like
