Alright, in the past few days, I have been running into the same issue. An issue I have never had before.
When I try to sync my Facebook Contacts it is able to sync my calendar, but after trying to sync my contacts it says:
"Sync is currently experiencing problems. It will be back shortly."
This only happens with MY account. I put in my sister's and dad's accounts, and they synced up perfectly.
I have never had this issue before.
I have tried EVERYTHING in the book to solve it.
This problem occurs on any ROM I use (Froyo and Eclair, but I am currently on Macnut). I have ODINed to stock, and the problem is still there, even on bone stock.
I tried going onto my account and uninstalling the Samsung Mobile application and the Facebook for Android Application, ODINed to stock, tried logging in/syncing but I still received the "Sync is currently experiencing problems. It will
be back shortly."
I tried deactivating my account and reactivating, changing my password, my email - still no change.
When I go to my contacts, the activities feed of my Facebook shows up perfectly, with pictures an all.
This thing is stumping me big time. My FB contacts are vital to me, and it's bothering the **** out of me.
Anyone have words of enlightenment?
Come on help me out here guys.

Lemme get this straight, you're using the built in facebook contacts thing right? From contacts > updates which will prompt you to log in?
If its not working try deleting your account off of it and putting it back in
Of course could be a sever issue as well

good to know i'm not the only one!
So my problem is simple.
When I upgraded to latest official ICS ROM (I had to use Odin) I have this connection error in the stock e-mail client.
I'm using an Exchange 2010 server, I've removed account, and added it again, it did sync and retrieve new e-mail for about an hour, but suddenly it stopped working. It keeps coming back with the connection error...
Can any-one please help me?

Ok,
It's already done syncing... yesterday (when the trouble started) it synced very slowly.. Let's see if it stays like this now...
hi,
have the same problem.
tried what you suggested, it ectually cleared the account and i had to re-enter and reset it up.
did not work, it synced some emails and then stopped with connection error
i use exchange 2003, samsung galaxy s2 ics 4.0.3
any suggestions ?
thank you
addition:
--------
bow, after a few hours it did sync, VERY slow and when reading the mail the sync back to mark as read either not done or will also take hours...
where is the problem ?
i can avoid thinking of going back to 2.3.6 as this version really sucks.. it has so many problems.
same here
Hello,
Same problem here, on Android 2.3.3 no exchange sync problem, after update ti 4.0.3 connection error ...
Samsung Galaxy S II (Black) - Android 4.0.3
So I haven't had any problems since my last post until now :S
About an hour ago it synced an SMS messages over 3G, when I came home, I received an e-mail on my Outlook client and tablet at the same time, so I kept looking to my Galaxy.... nothing!
It's not my exchange server (2010 SP2), everything, including my tablet on android 4.03 using the ASUS client work perfectly fine...
Using POP3 or IMAP is not an option, even not as a temp workaround... I really need the activesync :S
it's a "known" defect affecting some Exchange accounts (f.e. google mail's ActiveSync): http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1545986
there are some people that claim they could get it to work by changing some settings, but that only helps for some exchange servers. the ASOP 4.0.4 exchange service & mail client seems to work tho.

The last post on page 10 of that topic seems like a working solution... To bad i don't have the time to root my phone and try it atm...
So replacing the e-mail and exchange apk's made it even worse for me... now I can't even start the mail app anymore
Issues with Exchange and other syncing with ICS
After reading lots of post and trying to resolve issues I believe I have resolved my issues using pop & Exchange accounts.
Try the following:
1. Edit every email account to the lowest retrevial size for emails.
and leave whatever email accounts you have setup as is.
2. Turn your phone off, do not restart.
3. Hold down the home button and press the power on button, keeping the button held down until you are at the full menu screen or pin code for your sim.
4. The if phone doesnt refresh, go to email settings and refresh each individual email account. Mine did automatically.
Hope this helps all the poor suckers out there that have spent hours on their phone trying to resolve issues rather than being the guinea pigs Samsung has made of us!
Good luck & god bless.

This doesn't work either...
Samsung has to fix this very soon... Some people try to use this thing for business, and the exchange feature is one of the most important features imo... I have to have a fix soon becaus this is soo ... annoying
I guess I have a good temporary fix, by setting the retrieval size to headers only it seems to work fine....
I am having same problem on galaxy s2. Recently upgraded to 4.0.3.
It syncs sometimes with exchange 2010 but most of the times it gives error as
'Connection error '. I have tried everything that you guys suggested. Nothing seems to work.
please help!!
Hope it help to solve
Changing the maximum email size to '100KB' from 'All' also solved my problem.
It Solves the problem for some time. When I reduced to size to Minimum, it worked for 3-4 days just fine. Altough 'Connection Error' Again started coming.
It stayed like that for couple of more days and exchange started working again.
Just to make it clear, our exchange is working fine since all others are getting updates.
Really strange!!!
Email client started working
Hi guys.
I updated to 4.0.4 on my skyrocket yesterday and faced this issue till today morning. Just while being in the email app.. go to the settings of FONT. It has not been selected and hence we do not see our mails.
Select any size.. and voila the mail appears.

Hi I had the same problem, the fix for me was to stop syncing contacts with Facebook or any other 3 party app, I only sync my contacts with Gmail and Exhange servers. Once all the links with Facebook and some other 3 party app I had was gone from my contacts list all was well.
Hope it helps you, cause a phone without a phone is no phone

No my UI dosent crash, so maybe its another problem you got. My Firmware version is IMM76D.I9300XXBLFB. I have done the update no trouble there for me.
But i had to stop syncing contacts with everything else then google contacts I had to manual go in my contacts list and de-link everything so all my contacts was only on google account. No cross-linkling in any of my contacts, and no PhotoSynk from Facebook of any sort.
I couldent wait for the Iphone 5, had a 4. Let´s hope it will work out for us Appel defecters
Mine keeps freezing up while surfing the net and the window says "unfortunately the process com.google.process.gapps has stopped working" then I hit the ok button and then it goes back to normal. But the annoying freeze-ups keep happening on a frequent basis. And, I just took one back for doing the same thing!:silly:
same issue here
it happens when my wife calls me, when i call my wife. i guess the reason might be because i linked her to facebook, linkedIN and 2 google accounts.
happened only since todays android/samsung firmware update.
have now unlinked her facebook and linkedIN and will see if that helps
I had this problem too and my solution was to take off all syncs from contacts and more importantly: remove birthdays from contacts!
Weird bug indeed.
Same here. The process crashes when recieving a call from a friend. Tried removing some contact info. Just got to wait and see I guess.
I got the same problem when i updated Facebook contact sync app, it now sync pictures in 720x720, and that makes this happend.
Change facebook contactpics to smaller then 720x720 and problem is gone.
I've tried a whole bunch of things and think I've narrowed it down on my S3. Note, in my case, I used TitaniumBackup to move over my apps/data from my old phone to my new, so if you haven't done that, then the info below will not be relevant to you.
First, I tried de-activating sync (FB and Google) and then actually removed the accounts. No difference.
I also wiped Davlik (No ROM + Root is what I have). No difference.
Cleared settings for the Phone. No difference.
What I realized is that I did a Titanium Backup on my old phone (HTC Evo 4G w/ CM7.2) and copied it over to my new phone. It's this restore that's hosing things. There must be a library that's copied over as part of the process that's hosing things.
I have reinstalled the app and didn't select the sync birthdays option this time.
Already received an incoming call from a facebook friend and phone didn't crashed.
Oh man, tha'ts a BIG problem! Many people with this annoying problem. I had this issue, and now I disabled status and birthday sync and changed the size of the pics to 520x520... fingers crossed!
I have a galaxy s3 i have just recently did a back up and reset also cleared the cache now that i'm trying to setup the phone im getting these error messages unfortunately google account manager has stopped working other apps do the same youtube and hangouts.

Got exact same problem. Doing my head in. Been searching for hours but no luck. I cant get past date/time screen
Last night, I was having trouble with one of my Google accounts in my tablet. I deleted it. It's not the main Google Account. It was the third, actually, one I only need on the tablet for one app. I was not running that one app.
I tried putting the account back in. I've Googled the issue and tried several things short of a Factory Reset.
I've cleared the data and cache for Contact, Contacts Storage and Calendar Storage. No help. I've completely removed Facebook to see if that would help. I've reset Application Preferences.
I still get the error.
Is there any other way I can get this to go away besides a factory reset or updating my Android Operating System?
I have a Sony Xperia Z2 running Android 4.4.2 It is an unlocked Verizon tablet on a T-Mobile SIM or just on Wifi. (I would LOVE to try updating Android but I'm running into issues there as well. I don't want to pay $40 for a Verizon SIM I'll only need for the update.)
Details about update issues

Details on the update:
On Wifi I get "Error during DM Session"
On T-Mobile SIM I get "There is no network available"
Verizon support doesn't know why I can't get it over WiFi.
Sony Support says I need to repair the software with Verizon's tool (losing all data) then maybe I can update over the Wifi.
T-Mobile doesn't know why I can get the internet with their SIM (I can) but not the update. Me neither.
I'm thinking that the update would fix the acore issue and just well, be better than Android 4.4.2 so I'd really love to give it a try if someone could help me past one of those errors.

I think I may have solved the acore issue. I may post a new post abuot the Android Update issue.
I opened Application Manager and went to All apps. I looked through each one. For any app I thought might use contact information, I cleared the data. That meant Hangouts, Gmail, etc. Any app that used contacts. I got the idea when I tried to send an email and got the error litterally after every single letter I typed in an email address.
I tested it with Gmail and no error this time!
I spoke too soon. Something is wrong. I can't open Google Play anymore. I wanted to reinstall Facebook but when I open the Play Store, I get "Error retrieving information [RH-01]"
Please help!
Google Play Store works again now. Not sure what fixed it but it's working now. So I'm back to before I deleted that account. That's good, but now I know I can't get a System Update. So not too happy about that.
And it's back. I redownloaded Facebook and as soon as I logged in, I got the acore error again. So I uninstalled it again. Hoping that did it. I tried writing an email address in Gmail and so far so good. We'll see. No more Facebook on my tablet, I guess.
