[Q] Google sync can't connect on any rom - Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys, so I rooted my friends Tbolt and all was well on BAMF but he was sick of the bugs it had, so he wanted another rom. so we put on virus rom, and low and behold we couldn't get 3g at all (we flashed the MR2 radio i believe in order ot get BAMF to work, but virus didn't give us 3g at all even afteer a few flashse)
so ok whatever, we decided to try Gingertheory. In this, i noticed the market would open for a second, then close. finally i found out its because "google failed to authenitcate account" or something. so we're like, weird wtf. so i check accounts, and it shows the red sync icon saying Google Cannot currently connect to the servers, bla blah blah blah. so i'm like weird. so i try on my Incredible, aaaaaand it works fine, syncing is fine. so we're like ok, problme with the rom.
so we flash a plain rom that's just debloated, same thing happens. now we're just pissed, because this phone just seems to be rapidly deteriorating as of late (especially with the damn random reboots, he gets like 5 a day!)
so now, the phones still screwed and we can't connect to any google servers. is anyone else having these issues? this means nothing of his is syncing (mail, contacts, market, etc)

[Q] Google Voice/GV Dialer no longer working?

Up until like a week ago everything was running mostly OK. Once in a while it would say it was connecting but would actually go through to voice mail. All of a sudden (before flashing Eugene's V7 ROM, so that's not the issue) it says it is connecting but does not. All the settings are correct and where they always have been, but no matter what I do it just will not work. Anyone have any insights or solutions? I am still using a pre "Even More" plan with My Faves so it's really beneficial to have this all work. Thanks to all...

[Q] Can't add facebook account

ever since i flashed back to the original rom, i can't seem to be able to access my facebook account... i mean under "Accounts and sync"... i put in my acct/password and it just stays there loading for a while then says it couldn't connect... so i figured maybe it's my network, but i can still access the web and even use the facebook app... ne idea what's happening?
This happens to me when I was running stock with root only (Just updated to JI5, still stock kinda of), started today (maybe yesterday when I was sleeping but just noticed it today). Wait and see, maybe a fix is on the way.
i'm guessing that it's just a network problem? since i've seen both stock roms and J15 having this problem

[Q] can't establish a connection google.. nothing works.

I've tried EVERYTHING under the sun to get this working.
Here's the deal, my current custom rom, Tesla coil GB is the only thing that lets me add a google account AND connect to Market. Actually, Vicious' MIUI rom works too, but that isn't useable for a phone.
I really want to use BAMF Forever or Cyanogen mod, but every custom rom I throw at my thunderbolt will not connect to the server.
I tried pulling the sim card out and using wifi to connect, I've tried turning on airplane mode and trying to connect, I've tried a factory reset... nothing works.
Getting an account added to the phone isn't the problem here, I can actually do that with the youtube workaround very easily, but even after I do that, every time I try and open the market app, I get an error that flashes up that says "server error" and nothing else, and then crashes when you hit "OK".
I've been sticking with my current rom for a long while because of this infuriating problem. I could really use any help possible. I'm starting to think my phone is defective.
So the problem only occurs with the market? Do other Google products work?

Yup, only market. Everything else works just fine.
After a quick google, i'm seeing some people saying they didn't have background data enables and it worked once enabled. If it is enabled, disable it, then re-enable it. Others said that worked. Good luck.
I'll give it a shot, as it's nothing I've came across on google for this problem yet.

Sometimes its just different search terms. Thats where i found a ton of them for this. Good luck.

Lose data connection when using Talk

I'm having a problem that has me stumped.
YouTube
Earlier in the week, I noticed that I was unable to stream YouTube videos over mobile data. I could launch YouTube and it would bring up the top videos. I could search and it would get me results. I could not however get anything to actually play, when I choose a video it will just sit at the loading screen, and my bars will turn grey. I will not get a mobile data connection back until I back out of Youtube. I confirmed this issue with several different videos while in different parts of the state, so it isn't limited to a certain video or tower.
Google Talk
If I am at the main screen that shows who is online/offline, usually this will display properly. However as soon as I pick a name and go to send a message, my bars will turn grey and I will lose my data connection. It will not come back until I back out of Talk. Sometimes after this happens I can reopen talk and it will sit at the main screen for a while, get mobile data back, and display who is online and who is not. Most of the time, Talk will not work again until I force close it.
Edit: Talk will not disconnect until I actually send a message. The message makes it through most of the time, but then I lose mobile data. This results in Talk saying "Lost connection to Server. Messages will be sent when online."
I am on CM7 Nightly 20 with the stock CM7 kernel since the day Nightly 20 was released. Just to be safe, I did a full wipe in Fastboot erasing the following partitions before re-flashing: userdata, cache, webtop, system, boot.
I am unsure when this problem started. I know that YouTube worked last weeks, but when I think back, I can't remember the last time Google Talk worked while I was on mobile data. Note though, that while on Wifi everything works just fine.
I'm at wit's end here. I'm going to wipe the phone again and install stable Ba2tF and just Google Apps, and see what happens (after I flashed Nightly 20 earlier today I had the Market start spam reinstalling my apps before testing Google Talk - though I did get to test it and have it lose data after just a few apps were installed).
I'm on 30P for the radio, AT&T, Western Massachusetts, any help would be greatly appreciated!!!
I was going to post the same exact problem. The problem only appears over cellular. Over WiFi, everything works fine. Also, I just reflashed stock and it works. So it would seem to be a problem with CM7 and/or AT&T.
I'm going to get a good logcat of what's going on after I narrow it down a bit more... my current log is 1MB, which as about 2 minutes of info. I'm going to try to narrow it down to just the few seconds from when I hit "send" to when I get disconnected.
Hopefully at that point someone smarter than I can figure out what's going on.

Just thought I'd chime in and give some feedback. Tested this out on Weekly #2 both with wi-fi and regular data and everything was working as it should. I've been through a few different versions of CM7 and have not run into this.
Have you been using the same gtalk .zip each time? Maybe try re-downloading it along with your fresh install? Also, have you re-flashed your radio?
And here is a logcat capture. I force closed Talk, started the capture, launched talk, connected, pressed on my roommate's name, and lost my connection. The part that says "<SNIP>" is where my email address was.
I'm going to upload it here, then start to go over it myself.

Yeah, the GAPPS package ROM Manager lists as newest is still 20110828, which is also listed as newest on the Cyanogen Wiki. I never re-downloaded it, I've always used the same .zip everytime I've needed it... which is since Pre-Beta1.
I didn't flash my radio up to 36P when it came out since some people reported issues with it, and 30P had been working fine for me since June/July.
I am going to try to re-flash Google Apps now, this time without using the new version of talk that supports the front facing camera... since I never used the functionality anyway. I will report back in a few minutes.

I tried reflashing both AT&T radios and both versions of Talk (w/ and w/o video chat).
For me, I get disconnected as soon as I open Talk. Happens every time. I froze Talk and I was disconnected when I got a Gmail notification. Maybe it was a coincidence but either way I was disconnected so the problem isn't limited to Talk. Maybe it's a problem with the Google Services Framework.
Here is what I think is a better logcat of what happens. This time, I setup CM7 to have long press back kill the currently active process, so that I could kill Talk right away.
I started the logcat from killing Talk and hitting the home button while it was restarted. I sent one message that said "Son" to my roommate, and lost my data connection. I then waited 20-30 seconds, killed Talk, it restarted, I got data back, I sent another message to my roommate that said "disconnect", and I lost my data again.
NOTE: This is with the Talk from the newest GAPPS (fresh download with ROM Manager), but not the one with the camera support (camera crap was cluttering the logcat anyway).
Anyone who is smarter than I able to see what's going on here?

Same problem with CM7 Beta so I'm guessing there's some problem between CM7 and AT&T. I'm on AT&T in NYC.
I have a list of ROMs this does NOT happen on. I went back and restored to several points trying to figure out exactly where the problem started, and while I didn't find that, I do have a list that it does and does not happen to.
Talk Works on:
Prebeta2
Prebeta3
Prebeta4
Stopgap
Ba2tF
Weekly1
Nightly8 (likely it works on Nightlies 1-8, I just never made a backup after that and went right to 20 so I dont know exactly where the issue started with nightlies)
Talk does NOT work in:
Weekly3
Nightly20
So at some point between Nightly9 and Nightly20 (which includes the commits for Weekly3), something happened with Talk that is causing it to drop your data connection when you send message or refresh the friend list.
If any Dev happen to stumble upon this thread, I did take a logcat dump and linked it above as a txt file called "betterlog.txt" which clearly shows two disconnects while using Talk without having a lot of other "noise" in the logs from other things happening on the phone.

Same problem, only I have this in Ba2tF. Odd thing is, I was running Ba2tf for some time, then all of a sudden this issue just appeared. I couldn't get it to clear, even after wiping data, caches, re-flashing etc...
Looks like this is nothing new. Check out CyanogenMod issue 3557.

Same problem in Ba2tF. I was running Ba2tF for several weeks, then this problem just popped up. Couldn't get it to clear.
Looks like an old CyanogenMod issue. Issue #3557.
I don't know if it's AT&T that changed or CM7 but the problem's gone since I started using weekly #4.

[Q] androidacoreprocess force close

Hi everyone I posted this on my roms page but I thought I would branch out and ask others if they have seen anything like my problem. It seems my phone hates my brother or at least his phone number. Every time he calls me or I call him I get the error process.acore has stopped unexpectedly problem, force close. I tried to clear the phone app but no go. The problem has occurred on two separate roms, fresh installs over a two week period? Of course the phone stops working and I get frustrated. Thought it was a dirty download so I tried Flips newest creation and sure enough after I have it set up enough to do a nandroid make the back up then about the time I make a few phone calls it starts kicking our the error android.process.acore has stopped unexpectedly problem, force close.(just found it was only my brothers phone number) I am on TWRP 2.0 for my current recovery.
Oh thanks everyone for any ideas,
I'm on 1.4 hboot, baseband 0.97.10.0808, PRI 1.24.003, PRL 21083, Android version 2.3.4 & Sense 3.0 currently....boot ready to SVN back to most recent Warm nightly.
Ok now it gets really weird, I just realized it's my brothers phone that causes the issue? What the f?I called many different phone numbers even a Miami area code like his....it has happened on two different fresh installs of two different Roms. I did clear the data on the phone app but should I completely delete his contact and then allow google to sync? It seems I basically already did that with the installs of the different roms? Any ideas WHAT COULD POSSIBLY CAUSE THIS? Very weird.
Thanks again because I have no clue
Charles
Ok so I reprovisioned the phone and still the same problem. It varies as to which phone contact causes the force close issue. Going to try and delete contacts although I doubt it does any good.
Anyone, Buehler, Anyone?
The same thing is happening to me on my 3d and i haven't rooted it yet. I will turn on the phone and everything will crash. I don't think it has to do with the rom but maybe a phone defect. I would say unroot and see if the problem still occurs if it does bring it back to sprint. They have a warranty for stuff like this.
TWRP 2 is really buggy, try flashing through cwm or twrp 1.1.1

I've been running twrp2.0 since release and I've restored nands, did wipes, etc all has worked fine.
