Ok i flushed wallet and now resynching.. will take hours.. ill post if it works properly.. but i was getting strange issues with wallet like not synching and staking before synching while being about 1000 blocks from what block it should be at.. possible my wallet jumped on a fork? I have removed all connections except those that are necessary. Re-synching worked last time.. hoping it works again. This is the same thing that happened to me a few weeks ago along with others.. just thought I would share my experience.
Thanks - yes, been there done that and hopefully won't have to again. Hope it works ok for you.
I was having sync problems myself yesterday - the sync started ok but stalled after a minute or so and the connection was closed, so I closed the wallet and restarted it - the sync then began but again soon stalled (as I could see from the blk*.dat files) so I restarted the wallet again and this time the sync proceeded normally and the wallet was updated. This morning no problem.
@Bitstar_coin, maybe the op could be updated to include a short guide re what to do if someone is having problems synchronizing their wallet.
