Help Background Sync

My razr isn't seeming to Sync anything. My emails aren't coming through. The only way they come through is if I click the "Email" Icon and hit the "refresh" button (the curved arrows). I have toggle toggle widgets up that show wi-fi , bluetooth , gps , background sync and brightness. The background sync one is constantly on but yet it is not syncing or bringing anything through.

The other day I was playing with smart actions attempting to get the best battery life out of my phone. I had a bunch of different things set up (learning the best way to set up "smart actions from the net). So I set up several different things and about 20 hours later I decided that I didn't like the way my phone was operating. I went back and deleted all the rules I had come up with. Ever since then my is not syncing with any apps , interent , emails? Anyone have anyone suggestions?

Also I went into my email settings and checked the "fetch" it is set up to sync every 15 minutes.
 
Welcome to the forums Zoo!
Have you made sure to check into Accounts/Sync and ensure that they are syncing correctly? I've noticed that sometimes my accounts (Twitter mainly) on my TF Prime say "error syncing".

Thank you for the welcoming! I went to my accounts and they are all Syncing properly.

I'm in data manager right now it says the following/
-Data enabled *check
-Background data *check
-Data Saver
(I click on this and it is not check; does it need to be?)

Other than everything seems right I guess I dunno.....:thinking:

What do you mean?
Data manager>
*Data enabled~check
*Background data~check


I just went into my Task Manager>Aut End List> And removied everything that was in there. It should my Email accounts on the auto end list so maybe that had somthing to do with it ?

Yes.





Go into your email, then hit the menu key on the bottom left of the phone. Then select settings and make sure data push is enabled. Also check to make sure the fetch schedule is not set to manual.

This could be it also.
