I have some fieldworkers whose phones are struggling to sync, after attempting over both 3G and Wifi.
I don't have access to the phones myself.

I want to suggest that they update the Android app to see if this may resolve the issue. Can you please confirm that no forms will be lost during an (Android) app update?

Any other tricks to try restore the syncing? 

Thanks,
Andrew

Hi Andrew,

Updating the Android app will not cause data loss. 

However, if their connection is strong enough to update the Android app but they're still unable to sync their forms with the server I would report a bug through CommCareHQ so that we can take a look to see if anything is going wrong.

Cheers,
Will

Thanks Will, will try update and report a bug if we're still stuck later.
