[Q] Exchange Sync Issues - Please Help topic

Morning all,

I just picked-up an AT&T Nexus 6. I set it up, upgraded to 5.01, did a wipe after and then configured my phone. I setup Exchange first (hosted Exchange with Rackspace) and started running into all sorts of problems with the native Gmail Exchange App. First it wouldn't sync contacts and calendars - only email. So I did some Googling and the removed the account, re-setup the Syn with just Calendars....and then adding Contacts after Calendars was done...and then added Email at the end after Contacts was done. This worked, but then email wouldn't sync with Push after the initial setup (or with Pull configured either) and would only get new emails after closing the App or rebooting the phone. Frustrated, I wiped and re-started with Nine (gorgeous interface BTW) and it was able to sync contacts, calendars and email all at once - perfect! BUT then the same issue happened - - email wouldn't sync (push or pull) until I restarted the App or the phone. Disclaimer - I have an iPhone 6 and a Note 4 and an iPad Air 2 that ALL sync perfectly fine with our hosted Exchange from Rackspace - never, ever had an issue. I have SSL set to "Accept all Certificates" as well (per the Googling) and still no good. When i try to do a manual Refresh in Nine, it just keeps "spinning" and never syncs-up with Exchange that was either (and just winds-up draining the battery because it keeps trying).

Everywhere I read about people having Exchange problems with the new Gmail app on 5.0 - - supposedly installing Nine solved the problem, but not for me, which is obviously frustrating. Can anyone please give me some hints as to what I should be looking for? I would greatly appreciate any advice and support.

Thanks!
Adam

Exchange contact topic

Firstly, apologies if this is in the wrong forum as this is more than likely a generic Gapps issue rather than this Rom but as I'm using it, I thought I'd try here. This is an exchange issue so need someone that's using this service. Everything is syncing fine other than my contacts. The contacts from my exchange server DO sync but I also get about 200 email addresses syncing from people I may have emailed once years ago. This has never happened before so I dont know whether this is a Gapps issue, an exchange issue or hopefully just a settings issue.

If someone knows a simple solution I'd be very grateful :)

[Q] Can't connect my work email (exchange) topic

I had a note 2, bought few days a note 4, tried to link it to my work exchange email account, when I insert all the data and I start the procedure it starts with :
"retrieving account information..."
then it gives me a security warning:
"there are problems with security certificate for this site"
when I click on view it gives me my company informations and the dates of validity and if I click continue it tells me that it has been:
"unable to connect to serve".

How can I solve this? I need the sync the email with the phone especially for the calendar. Any help will be really appreciated. Thank you to anyone that can give me a hint.

Moto avanced exchange topic

So I bought a used Droid ultra and everthing works fine but I can't connect to pc to access storage. So I go onto Moto to check my phone and there is warranty till June. I file a repair claim and they have a "Adavance Exchange Program". They send me a "like new" replacement. So most likely refurb phone. Then I send them back my old phone but they put a 0 hold on my CC.
I'm wondering if they even have these phone? If they don't, will they upgrade my phone, give me credit? A upgrade would be cool but what phone would they upgrade me too? Whats a comparable upgraded phone?
They do send me a refurb phone whats the warranty on it? Would it be 90 days? That means I lose out because my current phone has 5 months left.
Has anyone dealt with Moto advance exchanged?
