Seems like the Google Apps ActiveSync (Exchange Emulation) is broken on the GS3 (ATT Version). It sets up successfully but never syncs. Device Policy looks OK as well. Occasionally get an "..unable to connect" error.
It worked on 2.3 on the Skyrocket and several users who are experiencing this issue on the GS3 (noted in several Google Apps Groups) say it worked with ICS on Galaxy Note.
Anyone noted this issue?

Good Morning,
I've recently tried to install a few different 4.0.3 ROMS to my phone and have had a universal problem across them with my email. Specifically my Exchange account for work. I've been reading some conflicting information about it being a known bug and there being workarounds.
Our organization doesn't have any enchanced Exchange security that requires a PIN on the device at this time, although I have tried adding a PIN to be certain.
I'm getting incomplete synchronizations with an error of "Connection Error" in the email client. New mail is not being delivered. I have tried different message size and push/manual configurations to no avail. My coworker has an i9100 S2 that has no problems at all with his email/exchange configuration running on an i9100 4.0.3 ICS ROM. It's the only real deal breaker for me with these new ROMs as I really enjoy the new OS.
I have confirmed that my issues traverse the latest versions of SHOstock and Lil Phone Bricker. When rolling back to my Unoriginal ROM, behavior is as expected and no email sync issues exist.
Does anyone have any recommendations or email/exchange.apk files that seem to work without issue for corporate exchange email?
Update
Just posting that I attempted to install email.apk and exchange.apk from my coworkers i9100 phone and I still am getting the same connection error with incomplete sync.
I've tried a couple of third party apps:
K-9 - Works great but doesn't push through WebDAV
Touchdown - Awesome App and Push is working - 20$ for license
So it seems i can get it working through other means, just not with the native apps.
Thanks
Ever since I got the DNA at launch, all services that rely on communicating/syncing with Google will randomly cease until reboot, but I've only recently started digging into it. I'm currently S-OFF on Viper 1.2.0 with its included 2.04 OTA kernel from Verizon, butI've noticed this across multiple ROMs and 1.15 based kernels since stock. Like many others, I always had the "Sync is currently experiencing problems. It will be back shortly" error for my Google account. I had a thread up here, but with no response.
So far, all my thorough testing has been done only on Viper 1.2.0, and as a baseline, my initial flash of the ROM started with a full desense, and removing nearly all preloaded apps through aroma (including most of HTC's).
Basically, I ended up noticing that upon successful receipt of a calendar notification, my connection to Google would immediately drop, which seemed odd. Many fresh installs of Viper later, I noticed that keeping HTC Browser, Mail, Tasks, and Google Talk installed in aroma got rid of the sync error message (which was the first time since I bought the phone that I did NOT see it), while still able to do a full desense and remove most apps. With the error message gone, I have been unable to reproduce my issue anymore, but it hasn't been up and running long enough like this for me to call it solved.
I have been unable to find a fix while on pure stock or using any other 1.15 based kernel/ROM combo, even with all HTC and Google apps installed. It seems that the 2.04 OTA did something that helped this issue. I wanted to know if anyone else has noticed these or similar issues, and if so, hopefully we can figure it out, as I'd like to be able to get rid of these apps I don't use.
If you have a DNA with a Google account, please vote whether or not you have issues!
i've been having sync issues as well. any contact i add on the phone doesn't sync up to my google account. if i add it from the pc, it'll sync. also, the sync icon just stays there next to Contacts in the accounts & sync section.
i was trying to research it as well, and somebody else mentioned sync issues with their htc device. maybe its an htc issue? i don't know. definitely an annoyance though

I'm looking for a complete drop in communication to Google. However, from my research, I saw a few others with similar issues (only with contacts) who had a high success rate simply by going to Settings>Apps>All>Contacts Storage and press Clear Data. Once it resyncs, it should be fine. Worth a try if you haven't already.
I've tried that, but to no avail. Funny how Google sync has an issue on ANDROID! Lol
Google Talk

When you added those apps back in, did you try only keeping Google Talk? I have had sync issues before when I try uninstaling Talk, as well as being unable to use the Play Store. I was getting a message about "you must be able to connect to Google Talk in order to complete" Just a thought.
Howdy!
So - I'm coming from Galaxy Nexus and love this phone. However, I notice that Google Voice (in particular) doesn't seem to notify or sync well. My settings are fine and it works sometimes but more often than not, I'm not getting the notifications for new messages.
Gmail also seems to be affected but less so.
Anyone else having this issue?
So I'm having issues with google now and reminders.
Be it manually entering or by voice, it shows the reminder saving, but then never appear in my upcoming reminders list.
And obviously, no reminder is played when the time or location comes.
I'm running stock note 2 rooted.
I tried updating to the 4.4 google search along with the launcher, but that didnt fix the issue. So I revert back.
Anyone else experiencing this?
Well, I decided to upgrade (complete wipe) and using a new rom.
Reminders still do not work.
They do work in google Keep ... which is only a work around. However, I found out something interesting.
#1 - I'm not the only one having this problem. And it seems to be random, across multiple devices, including iOS.
#2 - I tried logging into google now with my other google account and it worked!
So something is up between the google account and Now's sync... I can only assume.
Does anyone know of a setting withing gmail or your google account that can cause problems? I tried comparing my two accounts, but couldnt figure it out
Sounds like a Google issue for sure. I'd report it to them.
Experiencing the same problem

I am having PRECISELY the same issue. It started at random, but now my Google account will not display notifications for reminders. One day they were all working perfectly. The next day, they all just stopped cold turkey.
I used my backup Gmail account, and BAM they worked! Just for that account however. After I switched back to my primary Gmail account, they still would not work. I tried so many roms and methods, but I can only conclude that it must be a google account problem. I have been all over Google Dashboard and through every single setting.
I am running the Galaxy Note 3 on T-mobile (hltetmo) with JediElite 4.4.2. Has anyone experienced the same issue?
Thank guys!
UPDATE:
After starting to look again (and actually coming across my own question on google lol) I got it working!
It must have been an update that changed or even added the option.
Just for the hell of it, i was going through the "customize" options and found "Continue to get reminders"
IT was set to "no"
As soon as it turned to yes, all of my test reminders showed up.
recap:
open Google Now > select the "magic wand" on the bottom right > Select Everything Else > set "Continue to get reminders" to yes
Hello guys
I know this question was asked a lot of times already, but I couldn't find a working solution yet.
I use two phones very often; A OnePlus 5 and a Samsung Galaxy S6. Both are connected to my Google account in the Google app, and are running Android 7.1 Nougat.
But when I add a reminder on either phone, it never shows up on the other, neither in the calendar app. Other syncs like notes work just fine.
Has anyone an idea of a fix?
