Thanks
After leaving all night and all day this is my situation.
Not sure if it's good or not
Kind regards.
Ps thanks I to all I, really appreciate all the help provided!!
If it synchronised only 57 notes overnight that doesn't look good to be honest.
I'm not too sure what to suggest - when it's synchronising it should show on the sidebar the progress like "Created local items: 123". Does this number keep increasing when you check it? Normally it should increase relatively quickly maybe once every second or two. How does it look for you?
Another possible reason is if your phone is particularly slow and the fact that it's decrypting objects may slow everything down. But it's hard to tell without having the phone in hand.
Hello same object after 3 days. I have samsunung S24 ultra. There is a way to load from a backup made from another device?
Cheers
Not without causing everything to be deleted and recreated on the sync target, which would be counter intuitive, as that would take longer than trying to download all the data from the sync target
Ok I officially give up.
I will give a try in the future and for now move my stuff on anytype.
Thank you all for your help. You are a great community.
I recently had the same Problem on Samsung S22 Ultra.
( Selfhosted Nextcloud, Linux Desktop and Android App )
Sync from NC on Linux Desktop always worked fine, but when I had to reinstall the Android App, it just loaded 30 notes within 24 h.
I marked the Joplin App never to go automatically into standby and now it works as fast as before and continues to sync.
Hello AxeIs,
Thank you so much for the suggestion.
I excluded Joplin from automatic suspension and from automatic battery saving on monday.
Joplin is keeping going on synchronize stuff. I leve all day Joplin app open andcleave my phone in charge all nigth to avoid any suspension.
Now it's saturday and it's not finish yet.
Still in sync after 10 days definitely a bug here.
Hello any clue on how can e it this enpass?
Kind regards
If you press Synchronize, what does it say?
Your problem may be related to the issue mentioned in this thread:
You have like over 100,000 objects in your profile according to the photo of your sync status screen on desktop. Other users have had issues with slowness syncing with only about 1000 objects on Android
EDIT: Actually this may be irrelevant as it seems if you're not using file system sync then sync operations do not touch the file system. I think the issue I linked was primarily caused by many revisions needing to be deleted and performing the remote deletions on Nextcloud is likely the cause of the blocked sync, due to throttling. From your log there is no evidence that there are revision deletions blocking the sync, and Joplin cloud should be faster at handling many requests as well. Also from your log it looks like over 8000 object have been created locally, so I suspect that all your notes have already been downloaded, but it might be that the notebooks objects which contain most of them have not yet been downloaded, which is why you only see a handful of notes on your device
@Pozlu70 Just to be clear, did you set your phone to not turn off the screen at all (or use an app like Caffeine to do this) when doing this? It's not enough to disable battery optimisations, as the screen needs to be on continuously as well, for the sync to work properly. If the screen does get turned off then that probably explains the network errors in your log file
I have the same situation. The sync to Android takes so long, which prevents me from using Joplin on Android.
The first initial sync took about 3 days. I had about 10,000 files (notes and resources). I needed to watch my tablet constantly, because once the tablet goes to sleep, the sync process is stopping.
I was hoping that once I make the initial sync the followin sync will be easyer. This was not the case. On average during one week I make about 50-100 notes with 2-3 images in each. To sync it Joplin needs 5+ hours and I should attend the tablet regulary. I cannot leave it for the night and have the notes synchronized in the morning.
Probably, as is, I cannot use Joplin on Adnroid.
By the way, on the same Android tablet, I have another app, DriveSync, which sync the same Joplin files between the Android file system and Google Drive. The sync takes 3-10 minutes and is working without any human intervention. It is scheduled to do sync 2 times a day.
@smelnich If you use file system sync on Android then yes it is going to be unbearably slow with 10,000 files in your profile for sure, if you’re on Android 11+. You should be able to get better performance if you use one of the other methods of sync (you’ll have to ditch Google Drive unfortunately).
See details in this comment and the rest of the thread:
I don't think so. I tried also with a phone with murena OS. Same behavior. It takes forever and never ends. I am sad because I have paied Joplin cloud storage. In my opinion there is a bug in the mobile version.
In reply, I have some 5.000 notes with heavy attachments and all the bells and whistles via Joplin Cloud.
If you set on Android the sync behaviour to “auto” (attachment downloaded only on viewing the note) + you use “Caffeïne” (very important!) to keep your screen on, initial sync is done in minutes.

Thank you @mrjo118 !
@Pozlu70 I think your issue is different to the one smelnich is experiencing. You did not reply to this comment in my previous post

So basically, did you do something to ensure the screen stayed on the entire time you were syncing?
Just for the record, you can do the same by enabling "Stay awake" in the Developer Options, which will keep the screen on while connected to a charger without having to install any 3rd party app.
