Simply for better battery life, I've been considering dropping background data and autosync. However, when I do that, I notice that my ability to sync my contacts and calendar with Google becomes greyed out.
How do I keep syncing my calendar and contacts with Google even with background data disabled?
You have to do it manually. Auto Sync is part of the background data.

I understand that, but I can't find a way to auto-sync. If I go into the accounts that sync under settings, it only shows "*account* sync is off". When I go into it, it shows the date that it last synced. No other options.
If you tap on one of them (contacts, calendar, or gmail) it will sync.

I want to use the stock email app. But I am needing to reset the tab every now and then to get the emails to come through. It attempts to connect and nothing happens. If I then do a reset it will work normal again.I am using a hotmail account. Any solutions to this problem?without changing the app or email account. Anyone else have this issue?

Instead of resetting, go to accounts, sync, and click on the hotmail account to re-sync.
I checked this. Doesn't have hotmail listed in there.

i guess you can't do a sync with Hotmail .. yahoo anf Gmail only ..
Just forward your hotmail to a gmail account.
Hi

I am not syncing with Google as Sync with Google in settings (Accounts & sync) is off. Anything I can do?
Thanks

Hey
I know it may be dumb to ask but is their a need to sync Facebook or social media apps with your phone? I'm Abit confused of the benefits? I have Google contacts synced to phone which i think will sync my new contacts so I'm fine with that but everything else is it really useful or is it better to have them auto sync turned off for battery life...
Cheers

I dont turn on my sync still i get the update in facebook, google mail, apps, and yahoo mail. I dont know what is the purpose of sync?
Its better to turn it off for added battery life.
That's what I'm thinking but I'm scarred to turn off Google as I want my phone contacts always backed up. That's the only one I have synced at the moment.

What's push and is their a option for that??
Sent from my GT-N7000 using XDA
yep when checking settings in email and accounts I think there are options there. At least for Exchange mail. Gmail its already push, dont think you can change it.
Always just check every setting within app as wel, Facebook has push for direct messages I think.
synch is old school, poll server, updates found download, repeat proces every few minutes
push, not entirely like blackberry but close, servers sees email and sends it to phone to download. Hence push.

Basically I sync all my contacts and photos with my google account so it will never be deleted unless I do
Syncing is to exchange the things between two accounts EG. Contacts & Google and if you lose the things on one account you can recover from the other account you synced by enabling the sync option again or you can delete on other also by syncing again
Its up to you
Hey
Thanx everyone for the advice. I think having Google contacts is a must just incase I add new contacts etc and I've synced my dropbox But apps like Facebook and whatsapp and twitter are so not needed so I've taken them all off. I can't understand why anyone would want to sync twitter or whatsapp lol just ludacris.

My stock mail app on HTC One only syncs when I open the mail app, I have tried various syncing settings from smart sync to syncing every 10 mins, but still only ever updates when I actually open the mail app.
any one with similar problems?
any solutions would be great.
thanks

Is auto sync enabled under Accounts? Have you enabled background sync?

HTC ONE - stock mail app not sync automatically
I actually upgraded from the HTC ONE X to the HTC ONE. On the ONE X I had no issue with the mail. On the HTC ONE my stock mail app stopped auto sync just out of the blue. I am running the stock 4.1.2 OS/Sense version 5. I have 3 mail accounts that do not sync.(Gmail, Yahoo, MS Exchange) They will sync only when I open up the mail app. I have the sync set to 5 min. intervals and to sync the inbox. I have the Data Connection put to sleep in the power save setting Turned Off and the " sleep mode " turned off in the power settings.
check 1
auto sync in settings is off or on
check 2
see if you hv ticked refresh on open in email account settngs
that may be super ceding all your other email settings.
