I'm running Fennec beta on an original Motorola Droid. When trying to sync, after correctly entering in my credentials, I press the "sync now" button and only receive "Last Update: in progress..." notification. The app & screen have been on for over 30min and it hasn't successfully finished yet.

It might take even longer than 30 minutes for the initial sync to finish.

Also, Firefox 4 beta for Android is not compatible with the Firefox Sync 1.4 add-on. Please make sure that Firefox on your desktop or laptop has the latest version of the add-on (1.5).

Thanks for the tip! I went back to FF3.6, installed the Sync 1.5 add-on and everything worked on Fennec. Thanks again!
