yes it works great
like i say i have a small cron running every 15mins syncing small apps
and one every hour doing bigger stuff like music etc
i just made a file with the syncs i required and saved them in my home
directory and saved them as say for instance owncloudsynapps.sh then did
a chmod +x
and the added these lines to cron using crontab -e
*/15 * * * * /home/phablet/owncloudsyncapps.sh
/0 * * * * /home/phablet/owncloudsyncdocs.sh
im pretty certain that they dont run when screen is closed im just
testing now so i know for sure.

Thanks, but that wasn't my question, I already sync with owncloud.
Does the cron jobs work as you described?

It certainly does I'm just doing apps and data but it will do
calendar and contacts aswell.
You have to make your image writable to install. If you have stock bq
you need a couple of debs so id probably wait till OTA 4 as
owncloundcmd is in the ppa

ive set up my owncloud again and have it syncing good now
i have these on a cron tab which ive been told doesnt run unless
the phones open ..
is there a way to make it run when the screens closed or would i be
right in saying if i changed the ron to every five minute it will
start syncing as soon as i open my phone anyway? and it shouldnt
consume battery as the cron wont run when the screens closed so can
run the cron every minute and use the battery?
i have one full data sync set up for every hour which does my
photos and music on the SD card
and a small app sync that syncs my task app, memories and notes app
this one i set to every 15 minutes
my battery i took of charge at 7.30am and the battery lasted to
12pm at night with moderate use so its not chewing battery...
any thoughts
Wayne :)
