Unfortunately not! You're right, it does error and cancel the synchronisation on a single folder. However, if I delete the problematic folder, it'll throw the same error on a different folder on the subsequent sync. There must be a bigger issue at play, and I'm still unsure as to why it reports that BusyBox isn't installed.... Thanks in advance.
[Android Apps and Games] xuaozinho:
This app is great!

I have been using it for years and since the phones now dont use a memory card, only internal memory, wich could be a problem, the sync option to a cloud is the best scenario, to get all the info save and secure.

Hope the programmers keep the good work!

Thanks

MEGA account causes app crash

Hi,

I tried to add my MEGA account to Synchronize Ultimate. When I insert my account login information and save it, everything seems fine. However, whenever I try to access the account (using Test button in Remote Accounts -> Add dialog, or by accessing the account in a File Manager session), the app crashes.

Sometimes, in Remote Accounts -> Add dialog, if I tap the Test button twice, I get an error message: "An error occured while connecting: End of input at character 0 of". After a while the app crashes.

I tried to change some advanced settings to see if it doesn't help but with no success. I have made screenshots with different sets of advanced settings I have tried. See the attachment.

Can anyone else confirm a similar problem?

The device: Samsung Galaxy S4, Android KitKat 4.4.2, I9505XXUGNG8.

Dropbox synch keeps giving "error executing: null" on some files

Hi,

I'm experiencing "error executing: null" on some files that are being synced from my Dropbox account. Specifically one of the MP3 files in my music sync directory. It only has numbers letters and spaces in it's name and it's directory names.

It try's 4 times before giving up giving

error executing: null

error executing, trying again (2): null

error executing, trying again (3): null

error executing, trying again (4): null

I'm syncing it using Internal Root.

I've discovered that it's creating a music directory inside my music directory for the MP3 file and it's directory to be copied into and then fails possibly because it's looking in the proper directory to confirm.

ie copies into "music/music/album/track.mp3" instead of "music/album/track.mp3" but successfully creates the directory "music/album" then checks "music/album/track.mp3" which isn't there, therefore failure. ( my interpretation )

Log file attached.

Thanks

suggestions for file manager improvements

I would have few suggestions that according to my opinion would make the file manager even better.

1.

Current behaviour

Tap on File Manager.

In File Manager sessions tap on +ADD button.

Create a new session.

In a File Manager fragment tap to an area with the text "Click here to add a (remote) account".

Add file manager window will popup. Tap on one of the accounts.

File manager name window will popup. You can adjust the file manager name.

This is good.

Now, repeat the steps 1 to 3 and let's continue with different steps.

Tap on the sandwich button to show the left side panel.

Tap on one of the accounts in REMOTE ACCOUNTS section of the side panel.

The account is added immediately to a file manager fragment. No File manager name window will popup.

Suggestion

Change the behaviour so that even in this case the File manager name window will popup.
[Android Apps and Games] prorokrak:
suggestions for file manager improvements

My second suggestion is more complicated so I decided to make a new post.

2.

Current behaviour

When creating a new session you can add number of file manager fragments horizontally or vertically.

AFAIK if the Automatically option is selected the feature works in this way.

If in the moment of creating of a session a device is in horizontal position, two fragments are created automatically.

If in the moment of creating of a session a device is in vertical position, one fragment is created.

When the device is in horizontal position, having two fragments horizontally is quite good.

View attachment 3346734

However when the device is turned into vertical position, the two fragments remain placed horizontally which does not look good (and is not very useful, actually).

View attachment 3346735

I believe in this situation it would be much better if the placement of the fragments was changed to vertical.

View attachment 3346736

Similarly, the vertical placement of the file manager fragments does not look very appealing and practical when the device is in horizontal position.

View attachment 3346737

Suggestion

If a user selects his own number of file manager fragments, respect it.

However, if he sets the number of file manager fragments to Automatically, make the placement of the file manager fragments smarter.

If in the moment of creating of a session a device is in horizontal position, create two fragments placed horizontally.

If the user rotates the device into vertical position, change the placement of the file manager fragments to vertical.

----------

If in the moment of creating of a session a device is in vertical position, create two fragments placed vertically.

If the user rotates the device into horizontal position, change the placement of the file manager fragments to horizontal.

Hi,

Thanks for this great app , I was searching for this app for long time.

Appreciate your work, but I have one request from you, please allow us to remove tabs from file manager session because every time I need to remove a tab, i must remove the hole session.

Thanks

Dear, I have a problem with this app. When I'm synchronizing a file, specially for big file, and the wifi connection stops, i need to restart sync from zero, This is a big problem during sync of big files.

For example, Idrive official app allow to resume the file sync from the point where is stopped.

Can you solve it?

thank you in advance
[Android Apps and Games] Themuzz:
@bigdave79 It might be because there are so many items, but we just tested it with a folder with 2000 images and it seems to work fine... Could you try the latest version from Play?

[MENTION=5237838]seb706[/MENTION] The busybox not installed error is something general if it can't list a folder. So it appears there might be a specific bug with that top folder. You can access it using the file manager or do you get the same error?

[MENTION=2483571]xuaozinho[/MENTION] Thanks!

[MENTION=6046138]rakprorok@gmail.com[/MENTION]

- For the not syncing on schedule, it seems to be a problem with the way how Android goes to sleep when you turn of the screen for a while... We can implement a different method which should always work so we'll look into that, in the mean time could you try Tasker?

- And for the wifi lock, did you disable it on the general settings page? By default it is one. And after saving please restart the app fully. Does that help a bit?

- For Mega, does it work in the latest version?

- For suggestion 1: Should be fixed/added in the latest release, thanks!

- For suggestion 2: Really good idea, however really hard to implement.. sorry but it will take some time :)

Thanks for all the feedback!

[MENTION=6727281]Xudo Vi[/MENTION] We just released an update which updated the dropbox engine, let me know whether you still have the same problem.

@MAMZU89 You can already remove tabs, just click on the tab name and a list of options will show including the removing of the tab.

@mntr86 Good point, currently the app doesn't support pausing uploading of large files. We'll look into it later on!

@big-big Did you try the new advanced sync type to set a folder based on the dates of the file? Let me know! :D

[MENTION=5126068]tomvs16[/MENTION] What are the problems you experience?

Thanks for all the feedback! More if of course welcome :D
[Android Apps and Games] big-big:
Hi,

I've tested the new option for folders based on file attributes!

Cool, cool, cool! Works like expected!

Two little things, that I found:

- the file dates of the copied files are changed. They should keep their dates.

- when using the file creation dates, 1970-01-01 is taken. Something seems to be null here...

...keep going!

Cheers, big-big.

Edit: the file dates are correct when I copy the files to my NAS (SMB mount). Using my internal SD card, they are updated to the current date.

And when changing the variables I have the feeling that the paths are not updated...
[Android Apps and Games] prorokrak:
Thanks for the tip, I will have to find out how to set it up in Tasker.

In General settings I have disabled the options "Keep wifi lock" and "Keep the device awake". They are enabled only in Profile settings so it should keep my device awake only when the profile is running. Interestingly, this problem now appears quite randomly and fortunately not too often. However, when you have any idea how to debug it, please, let me know.

Unfortunately, the problem persists. The app doesn't crash always when the login is unsuccesful but the same error still appears :(

Thanks for your continuing effort to improve the app.
[Android Apps and Games] Alahdal:
It would be nice if you can add Tasker variables for the state and event for example to share the approximate time for syncing, part of the log file at the end of sync process, etc...

I found that you have different events for the stop i.e. Stop OK, stop error, etc... That's mean I have to create separate profile for each result. However, better to send variable to Tasker with the result of the stop event.

Worked flawlessly.

Amazing app I didn't knew such awesome app exists[emoji4]
[Android Apps and Games] seb706:
Good question. I was able to replicate the problem in the file manager after trying to access the 'lib' folder. So, it appears that the error is thrown when attempting to sync the 'lib' sub-directory in /data/data/com.app.name/. My understanding is that that folder is actually a symbolic link to the library files contained in /data/app/, which I assume is the cause of the error. Fortunately, it seems to be straightforward to workaround this by simply including an exclusion filter. Just a suggestion, but perhaps it might be worthwhile to add an option to ignore symbolic links? That would help in avoiding any potential circular loops and unnecessary data replication.

Thanks very much for your help - the sync profile seems to be all working as it should now.
[Android Apps and Games] tomvs16:
I was getting a random error, turns out there where some characters in my folder name which were not permitted in Windows. Maybe it is handy to change the error message so people know what really happened ?

I was using "/" as a separator in the folder name, and of course it is not allowed.
[Android Apps and Games] Themuzz:
[MENTION=792857]big-big[/MENTION] Great to hear you like the new option :) For the file date, that can only be kept on some accounts like the Internal Root account, for the Internal account it isn't possible to change file dates (Android doesn't allow that). And for the file creation dates, these are only available if the remote account support them, have a look at the file manage, select a file and view the details. If the date created isn't shown there it is not available, also something we unfortunately can't change.. I hope that helps!

And does it still work ok after using it for a while?

[MENTION=6046138]rakprorok@gmail.com[/MENTION] Interesting... it just shouldn't happen, however we think android might set it self on certain types of using the app. We'll keep on looking!

And for the Mega problem, really weird, we are not able to reproduce it. So when exactly does it crash? When you press the test button?

[MENTION=788245]iT iS Me[/MENTION] Good idea! However, we're not that into Tasker and have no idea how to implement it, maybe you have an idea or tutorial we could use?

@AhmedRana Cool!

[MENTION=5237838]seb706[/MENTION] Interesting! We'll add an option to not sync symbolic linked files/folders! Good idea! And good to hear it works ok now.

[MENTION=5126068]tomvs16[/MENTION] Ah, we looked into that! However, every remote account has their own requirements which change quite often so it is hard to keep up with, but maybe later on we will implement it. Anyway, good to hear you found the problem.

Also, we really need some reviews on Play and Amazon since downloads are quite low and we want to continue development. So if you are able to leave a review on one (or both) stores that would be great! And of course PM me afterwards for an unlock code :)

error executing, trying again (2): null

It's still happening, sort of. After synchronizing it completes calling it successful, but I'm only able to find the first file it started the synchronization with. Also afterwards none of my apps have write access to the External SD Card any more (I suspect Synchronize Ultimate also no long can either which is why the other files aren't present). Resetting doesn't help, the only thing that does is to un-mount and re-mount the SD Card in system settings. Immediately after this my apps can again write to the External SD Card.

I get a Notification that the Synchronization had a Error, but there is no error anywhere in the log and the status of the synchronization in the app say successfully completed.

I'll be trying a few more times to see if this is consistent. ( and so far it has been )

Hope this is helpful.

I'm synchronising from Dropbox to my External SD Card using the internal root selection.
[Android Apps and Games] Mr Andreas:
Failsafe Clone

This app seems to have it all! The only problem I keep having with it is that it fails to do a one way sync from my external SD card to my OneDrive as it keeps failing on one huge directory that has over 7000 files in it. This made me think, I really don't need a smart synchroniser that checks file sizes and whatnot but simply clones one folder but in a safe and reliable way that can survive failure without corrupting the last backup. Basically, what I wish I could do with Synchronizer Ultimate is the following process...

1) delete destination\incoming, if it exists

2) create destination\incoming

3) copy everything from source to destination\incoming

4) if successfully copied everything, rename destination\incoming to destination\backup (overwriting if destination\backup exists)

Obviously running this process for every backup would start eating up bandwidth if run every day especially when, like me, you have about 32GB of data to copy. So one could schedule to run this profile once a week while charging and connected to WiFi then have a schedule for the other days that, on the condition that destination\backup exists, would only copy missing/changed files in the destination\backup. The only problem with this is if a copy fails then there may be a corrupted destination file. The way to overcome this is that a copy would be done to a temporary destination file then renamed to overwrite the actual destination file.

Any thoughts on this?

I wish there was a way to disable a profile from the profiles screen without having to alter the profile itself.

---------- Post added at 11:38 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:34 PM ----------

I wish conditions as well as start/stop could be strung together with operators such as AND, etc. That way you could say, start if this AND this condition is true, for example.

---------- Post added at 11:41 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:38 PM ----------

I chain my profiles by starting one after the other has stopped. However, instead of displaying the display name of the linked profile under the "sync profile stopped" it displays the unique ID which is not very helpful for readability. Could this please be changed to display the name?

---------- Post added at 11:49 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:41 PM ----------

I wish there was some way of forcing a start on some profiles perhaps by adding a user-started override condition or similar. (This on profiles that wouldn't normally start, for example, because the device is not on charge.)

Great Backup Tool!

I have found Syncronize Ultimate v2.8.22 yesterday and tested it immediately. It's really the Backup tool I ever searched for. Now I have a tool which has the capability to make a Backup from my phone to my Synology NAS via SMB share. Works really fine. At the first look it has too much options for a easy configuration but after some testing I get a feeling for the mighty features it has. In the next days I will check some more of the possibilities of the tool.

BTW, is there a plan to translate the GUI into other languages e.g. German?

Thanks for writing this piece of software.

Yesterday i got the idea that i could sync my music with google drive to all my devices. So i've searched for a app that would do the job. First i have found an app called autosync but after some other searches i found synchronize ultimate. Now i'm really speechless because this app can handle about 100 different cloud options. It can even operate with SMB too. And yes a german translation would be very nice. :)

Hi,

Now, that I have some profiles running with the new file-based-folder-structure advanced option I can tell that it works pretty well!

I'm now able to backup my photos and sort them to a logical structure, that I defined some decades ago... ;)

The only downside is the documentation. It took me some time to figure out, what's possible and what not. With some help and hints from the forum I'm happy to run these profiles each night.

Thanks very much for realizing my request! I appreciate it!

Keep going!

[MENTION=6617354]xudovi[/MENTION] Ok, thanks, we'll look into the Internal Root account

[MENTION=4604037]Mr Andreas[/MENTION]

For the failing on 7000 files, we tested it with some other accounts and never had a problem. Also, if it fails in the middle it doesn't corrupt the backup right? Do you get a specific error? And in regard to the temporary file, we're actually looking into implementing that.

And you mention you received a busybox error, is there a reason you don't use the normal Internal account without root? And what Android version do you use? And for the log, it seems the listing of the folder /Android/ fails

- Disable profile: will be implemented!

- Conditions AND/OR: that's maybe a bit to much, for advanced options like that you can use Tasker and the Tasker plugin from Sync Ultimate

- Chain profile name: will be implemented!

- Override start: will be implemented!

- Detect SSID is available for run: we'll look into it however it might drain the battery since we would to scan quite often...

- Onedrive 100mb: I think so but need to check.

[MENTION=6767929]GC.Cacher[/MENTION] Great to hear you like the app, looking forward to more feedback. Thanks! And for the German translation, we're looking into translating the app.

[MENTION=4730076]Chriss123456789[/MENTION] Great to hear you like the app! And as mentioned in the previous paragraph, we're looking into translating the app, so stay tuned! :)

[MENTION=792857]big-big[/MENTION] Great to hear the file-based-folder-structure works as expected. In regard to the documentation, it's still on our list :)

Thanks for all the feedback and more if of course welcome. Also, a review on Play/Amazon is greatly appreciated!
