Achievement will not sync from Windows Phone 8

GarySnook · Apr 25, 2017

I unlocked the "Around the Sphere" achievement from the game "Microsoft Bingo" on my Windows Phone 8 Device. It shows as unlocked in the game itself, but the Gamerscore does not sync on my profile.

Xbox Achievements Not Syncing on Windows Phone

I too have issues with getting my achievements on Windows Phone 7 and Windows Phone 8.1 to sync up to my profile. I can get to the leaderboards, but the data is not accurate on them on Microsoft Bingo and the progress in that game from Windows Phone 8 transfers
over to Windows Phone 10.

Windows Phone App Preview - From a Zune user since my Zune 30

This has some great options on alternative syncing. Definitely not what you would expect.

Since March 2020, achievements that are unlocked on windows phone 7, 8 or 8.1 will not sync to Xbox profiles. I've seen numerous people reporting that they have the same issue. That being when you unlock an achievement on windows phone 7, 8 or 8.1 it will
unlock however won't sync to your profile. This issue also happened in October of 2019, however was resolved and achievements started syncing again throughout November 2019 - February 2020. It is now broken again and needs to be fixed.

For me I'm using a Lumia 640 running Windows 8.1 and the achievements I've earned in March and May 2020 haven't synced. Everyone has the exact same problem and it is occurring on all windows phones using 7, 8 and 8.1 os.

This a service issue, I hope it gets fixed.

I have two Lumias, one with Windows Phone 8.1 with the Lumia 630 device and the other with Windows 10 Mobile with the Lumia 532 device, I am experiencing problems in obtaining and recording achievements, especially with Windows Phone 8.1. I hope this problem
is resolved, so that we can finish all pending games.

Please fix this. Even if you fix it and then give an end date for achievement support, that would be something.

Hope to see this solved soon too. At least fix something else, if not the Games for Windows Marketplace. Or you guys got a natural habit of leaving everything broken once it breaks?
