Hi there

I resume this thread because I extracted DSP Manager 2.0 from the latest CM9 Alpha and tried to put it to work under NexusBeam 4.1.0. (ICS)

It gets installed and the options are tickable.

While as I tap upon the manual Eq, the app FC.

Any idea/trick/hint?

Thx

Nope its not odex, its AOSP 4.0.3 built from source for NS4G.

I guess the next question is what roms that did not have DSP (all besides CM9) did the zip posted work on and test the eq? Am I the only one?

Hi everyone

Anyone else having a huge amount of data traffic when using Exchange ActiveSync on the Galaxy S2?

I've configured my Exchange Account and did the initial sync over WLAN. The next day, starting from 8 o'clock the device started push mal activity.

Through the day I've just received around 6 e-mails (without attachments). But the E-Mail client on the Galaxy S2 generated around 15 MB !!! of data traffic from 8 AM to 3 PM. I've monitored this using 3G Watchdog Pro.

This is absolutely unbelievable. Other Android devices with 2.3.3 (HTC Desire HD for example) do not generate such an huge amount of data traffic.

My HD7 with Windows Phone 7 uses around 400 to 500 KB data trough the day while using Push Mail.

The Samsung support told me to factory reset the device. Funny enough... I indeed tried it, without luck.

Just interested to know, if there are other people having the same problems.

Thanks, René

Great to hear I'm not the only having this issue.

Meanwhile I already got in contact with Samsung support. Their official response was to have an internet flat :confused:

Fantastic answer. In my opinion, they simply did some mistakes implementing the Active Sync protocol. But that my opinion ;)

I switched back to my HD7. With less than 10 MB per day I'm able to surf the internet, use push for my company email and even hotmail sync...
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] (•.•):
Maybe its their agenda... "secret's meant to be shared"

like they say in the trailer.

sync all your files.. including private files, like videos and fotos..

I don't use sync, because I don't like to give my private files away, to a big company..
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] paolo.olgiati:
I have the same problem.

My mail server is actually a Zimbra server.

With my old HTC HD2 I consumed less than 30Mb at a month of data traffic for the mail.

I analyzed the logs of the server and there is the message "suspending for 470 seconds" which seems to be good.

But the phone connects every 30 seconds. That's because it generates so much data traffic.

I tried to change the time to check mail from "push" to 5 minutes, but the phone always connects every 30 seconds.

A colleague of mine has the Samsung Galaxy Tab P1000 and it works correctly on the same server.

I have a potential fix on VillainROM 1.4, and I had a total of 800 MB of data usage in a whole month (and I'm not a light user), so it seems to work.

It's the ported stock Vanilla email app, and it seems to work fine.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AriesInMotion:
Hi guys, seems I have found a possible problem. It looks like the phone was syncing in bg the picasa web albums posted on google over the years... That explained the traffic...

I disabled that ( to be able to do it you must have auto sync enabled. Then you can untick picasa from syncing list).

I have also installed an application Traffic Counter Extender which hopefully will tell me more about what is going on behind my back :)

Hope it's helpful for others as well.

Hi everyone

Has this problem meanwhile been fixed by Samsung? Some people say, they no longer see the huge data traffic, others still have it.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] niceguymattx:
I'm definitelt still having a problem like this - got my phone on saturday afternoon and already my data usage is over 150mb. Using traffic counter it looks like at least 105mb is due to the email app.

Its also killing my battery - my phone wont last 10 hours without charging.

I've turning off Sync, but I dont think its helping

Anybody got a solution

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raftbone:
Hi Matt

Thanks for your reply. Hopefully Samsung will fix this. The device itself is really great, but for me it's unusable with this bug...

René
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pume:
I have had the exactly same problem (or so I do presume, haven't checked the data consumption). The battery was going flat in about 12hours if I kept the push on all the time. My solution has been to disable push and but the inbox check frequency to never / manual. That I can live with because I'm sitting in front of my computer at work most of the time anyway. While travelling this is still problematic because the laptop is either not connected to the network or it's in my backpack. I hope there's a fix coming to this soon.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] niceguymattx:
Glad to here the thread is still alive!

I really like the phone, and am glad I've moved to android from an iphone.

But I totally agree - this problem is making me think of returning the phone and switching to either a HTC Sensation or back to an iphone.

Very annoying

Superfast Battery drain and Humongous data traffic

I have all the above problems in my gs2 too. Please tell how can i remove picasa sync from google account sync section. I have crossed 1 gb usage in just 9 days and got to pay atleast 12000 INR :(

Battery drain is another problem... 100% cause is data traffic, because my outgoing calls/sms and data traffic have been barred since yesterday and battery is still going strong. 92% at 9am and stil 63% remaining at 11 pm!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mddmx:
Have you changed your sync settings from PUSH to every hour and see it that helps?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fikus:
Hello every1!

Looks like i solved the mistery, at least for my case. I tried all posible roms etc an read hundreds of pages on internet about email problems on android. I figured, that i can initial sync over wifi but not 3G. So there must be something wrong with APN!? Yes, exchange wants to contact your phone directly, so it can wipe an do security policy? So there should not be no proxy in your apn. I guess it can not do it over proxy... I deleted proxy and its port from APN settings and voila. When i check syncs in OWA, it does not do it in 20 seconds period. It just wait for an email!

I waited now for an hour. If tommorow won't work anymore, i'll write again :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raftbone:
Hmm, sound interesting. I'll test it myself tomorrow evening. Unfortunately I'm away and do not have my SGS2 with me...

But I could definitely be a problem with wrong APN settings.

Thanks for the info...
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raftbone:
Some more news of my situation. Unfortunately removing the proxy server entry in my APN did not solve the problem for me.

After doing a lot of testing, it seems that syncing the calendar with my corporate Exchange server is causing the problems.

Let me explain, how I was able to figure this out.

For some testing, I have removed both exchange accounts. Of course, no traffic from the email app.

Then I added my personal email account which is using Office 365 from Microsoft. Syncing email, calendar and contacts using Push without any issue. No huge traffic.

Then I added my corporate email account (Exchange 2010 with SP1) and started syncing email, calendar and contacts. Voilà, the permanent sync started happening again and email app is constantly generating data traffic. Seems to be a problem with our corporate Exchange server.

To figure out, what exactly makes trouble, I disabled syncing contacts and calendar. Only syncing email gives me normal behaviour. No massive traffic.

Then I additionally added contacts sync. No problem as well.

BUT. As soon as I start syncing my calendar with or corporate Exchange Server, my Galaxy S2 is permanently syncing. This behaviour can even be seen in Settings, Accounts. If I look at the options of my corporate exchange account, the sync icon near calendar is permanently active.

Unfortunately I have no idea, why this happens or why my Galaxy S2 has problems syncing the calendar with my corporate Exchange server. Maybe there's a bug within the Samsung calendar app.

Anyone else seeing the same behaviour?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] paolo.olgiati:
I can confirm the same behaviour.

As soon as I disabled the sync of the calendar, the push mail was ok.

I tried to empty the calendar but the problem persist.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raftbone:
Thanks for your reply. There seems definitely to be something strange with the calender app from Samsung.

I'm still using 2.3.3, but 2.3.4 should arrive this week. Probably our problems will be solved...
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gbrown2036:
I'm on the Samsung Infuse (v2.2.1) and am having the same problem with excessive traffic from syncing calendar items. It causes increased RPC latency on our Exchange 2007 SP1 server.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raftbone:
Any idea on how to solve it?

I already contacted Samsung support twice, both times I got absolutely stupid answers, which did not help.

This problems must have been something within Samsung apps, because other devices such as the HTC Sensation do not have this problems...

I simply have no idea on how to get this accepted as an issue at Samsung...
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gbrown2036:
I just chatted with Samsung and it was pointless since they apparently don't even have access to the knowledge-base of known issues to even confirm that it's a problem -- "You'll have to call Voice Support".

I used to have the Samsung Captivate and didn't have this problem and if you download the Touchdown trial app it can sync the calendars no problem so it must be something with the Samsung implementation of ActiveSync? Do you have a large number of Outlook calendar items?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] paolo.olgiati:
I already have a 2.3.4 ROM (XXKG6) and the problem is still there.

I tried to configure another mail account of my server (I have a Zimbra server) and the calendar syncronize perfectly, with no huge data traffic.

I suspect a problem on the calendar of my mail account, but I don't know how to destroy and recreate my calendar.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gbrown2036:
How many calendar items are in your mail account that is having the issue?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raftbone:
In my case, there are 2021 calendar items. The funny thing is, if I enable sync of calendar, but set automatically sync to "never", the email is anyhow permanently generating internet traffic :confused:

Unbelievable. If set to "never" this should really mean to sync NEVER.

I simply cannot explain what's causing the problems...
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gbrown2036:
Yes, before I realized that the calender items were the culprit I set it to sync every 5 minutes but it never stopped generating excessive traffic.

Also, once I sync calendar items if I then uncheck it it still generates heavy traffic. I have to remove the entire account and re-add it without ever synching the calendar items.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raftbone:
OK, I just got in contact with Samsung (once more). Hopefully this time my request will be definitely analyzed.

Please, anyone having the same problem. Get in contact with Samsung. The more people complaining about the sync problem, the better our chance to get this solved...
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] paolo.olgiati:
I solved the problem.

The problem does not seem to be in the calendar, but in the contacts.

In fact, I created with my Outlook a local .pst file and I transferred all my contacts in the local file.

In this way on the server I have an empty contacts folder: the synchronization has started to function properly.

After that I moved back from the local .pst file the contacts to the server contacts folder.

Everything seems to work well.

Presumably I had some birthday or anniversary on the contacts that created problems on the calendar.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raftbone:
Indeed, I just tried your solution and it almost solved my problem too.

It's definitely a problem with birthdays...

I just deleted all my contacts from my Exchange account and the sync worked well, even with syncing calendar. Then I just added 1 contact in which I have entered his birthday, the problems started again.

As soon as I delete the birthday field in Outlook, everything is working fine. Can't believe it.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raftbone:
I just got a reply from Samsung. They indeed forwarded my request to their specialty departement.

I included some links to several discussion. Hopefully they'll really read in here and see what the problem is.

Meanwhile other people from other forums acknowledged that the birthday entries in Outlook make the SGS2 permanently syncing...

Keep the fingers crossed :-)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gbrown2036:
I removed all of my Exchange contacts (leaving my calendar items there) and turned on syncing again for both contacts and calendar and the RPC server latency immediately jumped. I had to stop calendar syncing and then reboot my Infuse for it to stop redlining.

I then added a single test contact with a birthday and had it sync my contacts again and all is still well.

This makes me think my problem is not a contact linked to the calendar but the calendar itself. I suppose I could try the analogous test by removing all my calendar items then resynching...
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gbrown2036:
Any updates on fixes/workarounds for the stock Infuse ROM? I ended up flashing the CM7 ROM and everything works great with regards to this and many other things.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marasp:
Hi there, i have very similar problem with huge data traffic but i do not know if it's caused by exchange as i do not use it. i use hotmail account though, so this may be a culprit. so far i found that as soon as i switch conection to G only, whatever it is, it stops eating data. my daily usage is back to reasonable 15-20mb. could anyone do a test and confirm or deny my findings that huge data consumption occure on 3g and H connections?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WhiteOwl:
On my Galaxy S2 this drain was caused by exchange contacts which had Birthday set before 1.1.1970 (anniversary maybe too) ... it may be related to known bug : exchange contact birthdys set before 1.1.1970 are not visible in android contacts detail.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dasiro:
I just bought the S2 last week with android 2.3.5 and kernel 2.6.35.7-I9100XWKI9-CL630390 build GINGERBREAD.WXKI9 and the problem is still in this version:

192MB today of which 20MB on 3G)

hopefully samsung fixes this in the ICS 4.0 that should come out in the middle of february.

I've also disabled the contacts/calendar syncing so hopefully it will be bearable.

anyone knows if they will finally support GAL's on exchange and sharing contacts over bluetooth with a in-car boardcomputer/navigation in the 4.0 ?

edit: maybe background and auto-sync are also into play ?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] der.Vogt:
just tested ROM	I9100XWLP7 and CSC I9100XENLP3 from sammobile.com (the new NL ROM), the issue is not existing in this ROM.

Tested with Exchange 2003 , SP2 and there the push email works flawlessly on my T-Mobile NL SGS2

=========

Need to update myself: after 1 1/2 days of flawless functionality, the issue re-appeared.So my conclusion is, that this is some kind of issue on the SGS2 mail application and not really a ug in ICS as many other mention
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d_train:
This is still an issue with battery drain and also ignoring the sync setup (I had mine set to every 2hrs and it still did push). The data traffic for exchange is through the roof and at the moment I have disabled sync altogether. The problem with that is that if I add a contact on the phone I have to remember to either sync it or create it manually in my Outlook - same with a calendar entry - it is a pain because I run my business from my phone when I am not in the office, so it is essential that all is sync'd correctly. Never had this issue with HTC, so it is a Samsung thing.

I have a 2000mA battery that drains in 8hrs - without sync I get 3days.

I am using a stock ICS ROM - XXLPH

Looks like Samsung ignores issues as I have had this issue from day 1 with my SGS2, and even with the ICS update, there are still issues. Before the ICS, I would get an initial sync, but then contact or calendar changes stops working after a period of time - unless they are created in Outlook and not on the phone - so some stuff has been fixed, but the battery drain and constant connection to Exchange is still a problem.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] geertmeersman:
I noticed that using push for the email drains battery and traffic...

Have set it up to sync every 15mins and everything is solved here...

Hope it can help you.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d_train:
I never have used push - I always set it to sync every 2hours, and initially it seems that what happens, then over time I find a high battery drain returns and the emails are arriving immediately when received in exchange, so it somehow is doing push. As others have found, it may be related to calendar or contacts, but these are also essential to me running my business, so all need to be sync'd.

Surely there is a fix - it has been an issue for so long?

Does anyone know if the CM9 or CM7 builds have this issue?
