I've setup my Google account on my SGS3 and all is working fine except for that one thing.
Not sure why, but under the Accounts and Sync settings for my Google account, I have an error when it comes to "Sync Internet"
Any ideas on how to get this working?
Anything?
I guess its got something to do with the software. I has happened on many Samsung phones.
BTW I don't have a s3.

I had the .GS before that. That option was not available to sync. Not sure what it does but it's not working

another workaround would be to delete the associated gmail/google account from settings > accounts & sync.
then launch play store again and it should prompt u for an account but if you have existing other gmail/google account in there. in play store, press menu then > accounts then > new account and input the previous account credential.
hope this helps as it works for me.
Thanks but it didn't work... thinking maybe it's something in my Google Account page. I'll have a look at the settings
Do you guys have the app "Chrome Beta" installed. If not, download those then see if this works.

sync internet
I have had the same problem on my sensation with all roms i have used. sync internet always has the problem. you can remove the account and start again but I noticed that the sync internet will only work when you first log back into your google account then it will "experience problems" again. What is sync internet? yes done a google search but no clear answer. found something that says it is for bookmarks, but that sounds iffy.
the solution is here

I searched and couldn't find anything. I'll give it a shot later. At the office now.
Thanks though

GS3 and Google Account now properly syncing! XDA Once Again!
google account sync reset adds 'Sync Chrome'
Using the linked to solution (go to Google dashboard and reset sync data) worked Somewhat. An extra item in the list to sync appeared, 'Sync Chrome'. Which works.
But 'Sync Internet' still does not work.
Any hints on that?

Hey,
I have two issues and two questions regarding them......
1) I would like to sync the Tasks app. with Google however I do not see Google in the Sync Task profile only my Samsung account.
2) I'd like to sync the Memo app. with Google. It says that I'm not logged in to Google Docs however when I put both my email and password in the login tab does not light up, if I use a different email address it does.
As an added note I also declined a popup from Google about permissions to see what would happen. The window disappeared and nothing did happen!..... At least thats what I thought till now! Not sure how to undo that and suspect that's the problem!
I have also tried to remove my Google account, this only seems possible if you hard reset-which would have to be a last resort for me. I've also been on to my Gmail and Google docs setting via P.C. and am unable to find any setting there that would be affecting these issues.
Any Ideas on how to fix this?
I also have this problem and can not solve it.
I have google docs installed on my phone, but the e-mail address which is registered does not end with gmail.com but a different domain. I can use google docs without a problem but I can not login inside Memo to sync it with my google account.
Any ideas?
I prefer this app. Works great for me http://www.appbrain.com/app/gtasks/org.dayup.gtask

Is very good (I use it a lot)... But doesn't solve the sync of Memo... Any recommendations?
i use document to go for google doc... they work fantastic!
Since there's still no way to sync memo with google, i just use Simple Notepad. Color note sounds good too, it supports online back up and sync but haven't try it yet ...
Im using Mobisle Notes. Is very good, not perfect... But... the best u could find.
Any solution on this problem? I also would like to sync my task and memo with my google account. But when I hit the "Sync task" only Samsung Account is available for sync. When I hit the "Add Account", I can only add Exchange ActiveSync account".
I read in this forum and elsewhere, many have successfully sync their task with google task. I wonder is it really possible to sync stock task app with google task? Maybe it is the bug of my ROM. I am using stock ROM Gingerbread 2.3.3.
Use Google docs ore dropbox

Thanks for the information. But since the Tasks is already available for TouchWiz, I would rather use the built in Tasks app. I think the only way is to configure the Gmail Account as an Exchange ActiveSync account. There is a sample configuration for that in the Internet.
Sorry, you mean Task or Notes is on TouchWiz?
Also, can you post the "There is a sample configuration" you mention?
I would like to see it.
Thanks!
Is there anyway to use any calendar related features on the Atrix without it syncing to Google? I've searched the internet for answers, searched the device for settings...and I always get the same result. Under Settings > Accounts > Other Accounts heading > "My Google Gmail account" the tick box next to Sync Calendar is UN-ticked. Yet, no matter what calendar app I use, eventually everything shows up online in Google calendars. So I go back and check the tick box and its still cleared. I put a test event online in Google calendars, and in less than a minute it's on my phone. Is there a setting I'm overlooking here?
thanks
Have you tried Calendar(app)>menu>more>calendars ?

Yes, but If I 'un-sync' it there, the whole calendar disappears from phone. I want to use the calendar on my phone, but not have it sync to Google. There's only 3 options there, but not a 'Visible, not synced' option. Only 'not synced, not visible'. The only way i can stop it from going to Google is turn on Airplane mode, but that's pretty pointless, and it just syncs as soon as I turn it off. It doesn't appear that sync settings under accounts do anything on my phone. This is my first Android device, so maybe that's just how it is?
I recently got a HTC One X and noticed that there was an error syncing with my google account. When I checked it out, my "Sync Internet" is failing. Then I remembered that on my Logitech Revue with Honeycomb had the same issue.
What exactly is "Sync Internet" and how come it is failing on more than one device? Is there a way to fix this?
anyone?
I think that its just trying to sync your browser (bookmarks, etc.).
As for fixing it - I don't have any terribly deep insight. Try disabling it and re-enabling it. Do you need your browser settings synced?
I don't need it synced but since the error happened across two different devices, i wanted to know what it could be
I am afraid I don’t trust any web storage space. I prefer to some Android PC Managers such as AirDroid. Or another one Moborobo, it has the backup and restore feature. Both are free! Worth of try!

hi manage to find solution for this? i have re flash my rom just want to correct the problem but it still not working. perhaps is there any log that we can check why it is not connecting?
Same problem here. After reflashing my phone yesterday (due to slowdowns and hanging apps) I noticed that sync of Google account is constantly failing. The reason is sync of Internet. No specific error is reported, other items are synced OK. I have Samsung Galaxy S II 4.0.3 ICS. Before it was OK.

its the sync settings in chrome!
In google chrome settings via a computer, There is a hyperlink to google dashboard. Go there and down to Chrome Sync, Reset and delete chrome data. Then in Chrome settings reset sync and do NOT set it to "encrypt all data" just use the fist option "encrypt with password",
Problem fixed.
i had to clear the data from "contacts" and "contacts data" to clear an error that kept popping up after i flashed the latest task aokp rom, coming from a previous 4.1 version of the rom.
but now i cant sync the contacts back into my phone from the google servers/gmail. ive been trying regular syncing and resyncing but im still not getting my contacts back. the contacts are on gmail but i cant get them back on my phone.
does anyone have any solutions to this? tried searching google and xda but im getting much luck. thanks

-Did you try deleting your Google account in accounts from your phone and then add it back? That might work. Since you checked online and your contacts are still on Google, it sounds like a sync-focused problem and not an account issue. Is your Google Calendar syncing? Also are other accounts syncing?
I once installed a rom (not Tasks) and the contacts did not show up until I reloaded gmail and sent myself an email. (I don't normally use Gmail, but did for that issue!)
Sorry, I don't have more recommendations!
Good Luck!

good job! However, I would be concerned that they may not sync or stay updated. . . You might still have a sync issue.
Does your calendar sync? Also gmail on the phone stays sync'd with the desktop /web versions? That's the issue!

This point here kind of confuses me. Have you checked/enabled "internet" syncing for this account? i assume you know where you could selectively turn off and on syncing different items for an account. how did you conclude that internet does not sync for one account?
Syncing is been the basics of smartphones and i don't expect this to be a bug somewhere.
If you have got the time, i would suggest a system reset.
Just for clarification, are you saving numbers and it is not syncing back to your Google account? I had this problem when I first got this phone since I am used to AOSP Roms. I noticed that I did not change my "Contact Type" to my Google account when saving new contacts. The default saves to your phone if you do not select another account. I am not sure if this is the issue you are experiencing. Good luck.

Yes that's right in the area where you can selectively choose what to sync the only thing that's ever an error is the internet for one account that says" sync is experiencing troubles please try again later "
I'll try a reset tonight and see what happens ....

When you say your contact type do you mean yours or the contact tyour saving?
I'll have to dig through the settings a bit more.

When you create a new contact it has a box that says "Contact Type". If you do not change it to Google, it will default to be saved on your phone only. That is all I can think of if you are saving a contact and it is not syncing. Unless it is a syncing problem throughout your phone.

In address book you can also chose to only display Google contacts or any combination of all your sources.
