Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/ushahidi/SMSSync/issues/96

I have deselected 'enable auto sync' yet SMSSync continues to auto-sync all my SMS messages. This means - two SMS notices for every message sent to me plus extra battery and processing time.

I thought I could just adjust in the settings. Is there somewhere else it is pushing? I don't think it should be automatically on when you download or update.

version - v2.3

What happens if you disable the entire service? Could you aid with some screenshots?

Thanks for the screenshots.

Might it happen that the messages were already on the pending list before the upgrade? Looking at the timestamp from the screenshot, it says 10th June. We pushed v2.3 update somewhere on the 27th June.

Could you confirm if it's still happening?
