I have a few accounts on my phone set to sync every hour every day of the week from 7a-11p and it seems the autosync does not work. I have to go into the account which triggers the auto sync.

I am running the latest rom you have posted I just flashed it few days ago and have not installed or done anything else to it.

I know during my search I found someone say taskiller and some others can cause this as it may kill a task needed but I have not done anything except flash and setup my mail

Otherwise, GREAT ROM. I like the above dude and looking forward to trying the icons. That tweak app does not seem so great at doing anything with the icons. In fact even turning it so I see dBm on the app it's always off by about 15 compared to what the phone sees using the diag app within that app even lol.

Anyway more interested in the mail issue

I don't know if it's unique no my ROM or not, but I have had this issue for as long as I can remember. I have several pop3 accounts that I have set to check every 30 min, but they don't until I open the mail app. I've been meaning to look into it, but have not....yet

Well I "think" I kind of figured it out though not sure if can do anything.

IF you open "Mail" and hit the back button to back out of the screen that is actually ending the mail process thus no checking.

IF you open "Mail" and hit the home button when done instead, it keeps the process running and it all works fine.

I didn't have these issues when was on my original evo 3d with latest stock fw (non-rooted) but as a replacement phone I got a brand new in box one that had 1.3 boot so I updated to 1.4 and updated everything else, flashed yours and noticed this.

So must be something in the rom or kernal causeing the process/task to end on backup vs running in background. Kind of sucks because the mail task on mine uses about 34MB of ram to keep running but I know its really just some other smaller process that is all that needs to remain on.

Oh well, at least I figured out the work around for now so it checks, just hard to remember to not use back, haha.

thanks for the info....make sense....I ALWAYS back out of an app to close it....I'll try hitting home instead for mail.

and I think u are right, this issue came about after an update, not sure which one....I don't recall having this issue originally.
