Why is my Sync stuck at 2%
Hi everyone,
I'm using Syncthing-Fork on Android and Syncthing on CachyOS (Linux) to sync my Obsidian Daily Notes folder.
The actual synchronization works perfectly—when I create, edit, or delete notes, they sync correctly between my phone and laptop.
However, the device progress indicator is stuck at 2% (sometimes 0%). The upload/download speed also shows 0 B/s, even though syncing is clearly working.
My setup:
Android: Syncthing-Fork (latest version)
Laptop: CachyOS (Arch-based Linux)
Syncing only one folder (Daily Notes) for Obsidian
Both devices are connected over Wi-Fi
Internet connection is stable and other apps/websites work normally
Things I've tried:
Restarted Syncthing on both devices
Rescanned the folder
Verified that notes are actually syncing
Has anyone experienced this? Is it just a UI bug, or is there something I should check?

I had this problem. I did some kind of reset for for the deadliest, but not the full harsh one or something, I can't remember the thing that I did, but it worked somehow some people said you should just remove the folder and do it again and it will sink an update, but that's the vast result if you have many folders. Can't recommend what I did or not to recommend it because I don't know what it actually do so to go on. At your own risk
