Help Help with internet Sync problem

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.

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?

Thanks in advance.

I run stock on mine and dont use this feature but if its syncing with your computer, maybe clear that cache, cookies etc as well? Or possibly disable it, do another reset if your up for it or try a battery but and sim soft reset and reactivate it and try syncing again. If all else fail do the dreaded phone calls/ emails to the three company help lines. Im sure you are aware of the updated pdf manual on verizons site with the ICS features since it sounds like you know your way around the phone. If not, check that possibly. Sorry I couldnt be more help. Hope you get it running
