Not been a android user long but this was a Duh moment.
You were correct and I had just did all this but was still not sure it I had done anything that would make a difference.
Just reading this reply assured me I had.
Thanks for the proper and great input.
To the original post,
I'm having the same issue and am pulling my hair out. My problem, is that I don't have a smart phone, I just "upgraded" to a regular phone with the intent to save on data (which, it didn't turns out...but that's another story). I'm trying to run the cheapest I can so have a limited data plan. However, this stupid backup assistant keeps backing up 5-6 times a day and I can't turn it off, and its running against my data plan. None of the options allow me to change the sync scheduled, or stop the app from syncing. I just want to stop the dang thing.
harilor,
We're here to help! I understand how important it is to save on your data plan; I appreciate you being proactive. Backup Assistant is a free service and will not use your data to back up your contacts on a basic phone. However, if you'd like to adjust the syncing schedule, all you have to do is reset the application http://vz.to/1hMhPKQ ;once you do this and open the application, you will have a choice to select the schedule you want.

I know this is an old thread, but here's what you do:
Switch your phone to 4g
Go to Settings
Click on Backup Assistant Plus
Click on Contacts
Uncheck "Sync Contacts"
The sync will not work over Wi-Fi, so that's why it says it fails. It also will not let you uncheck the sync when you are on Wi-Fi, so that is why you have to change to 4g first.
Hope this helps!
