Google Apps not connecting and syncing issues [Huawi u9508 4.1.2] - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey,
I have a Huawei Honor 2 [U9508B 2GB RAM model] running EMUI B628.
I seem to be getting very strange syncing errors since my update. ALL google apps except for Play Store do not want to sync with Google, except on some very strange and rare occasions. I need to be able to access Gmail on my smartphone. It's one of my most important apps, but Gmail cannot sync properly, often staying at the Waiting for Sync screen for weeks on end.
I have tried reflashing my phone, but that was only a temporary remedy. The problem continued a mere 2 days after reflash.
Because I cleared the Google Framework Services data, YouTube is no longer connected to my account, so when I tap sign in, "There is a problem with your network" pops up a mere millisecond later.
Stuff I have tried:
1. Disable and re-enable auto sync a million times
2. Tap sync now a billion times
3. Remove account and re-add it. (I have only tried this once, but when I did, I couldn't sign in. it just said "couldn't sign in - couldn't establish a reliable connection to the server")
4. Clear the data of anything google
5. Clear cache and dalvik-cache in recovery
Is there anything else I could try? I've had this phone for just two months. I'd hate to go out and buy another phone.
Thanks!

Phone Contacts Disappear Daily Using Google Sync

I am running on the latest stock Verizon firmware on my Note 2. Starting last week I've been having this very annoying issue where at least once a day, all my contacts will disappear on my phone. I am using my Google contacts as my only source of contacts, it is a fairly simple contact list with no extra labels or anything complicated involved. When the contacts disappear, I go under settings --> (accounts) Google --> my gmail account, and see an error under Contacts stating "Sync error: Sync is currently experiencing problems. It will be back shortly." Hitting "Sync Now" again and again will not clear this error. When I restart my phone, the sync will work and my contacts will return, but after a day this error will occur again and my contact list disappears.
I have tried removing my google account from the phone, restarting, and readding the account without success. I have tried going under settings --> application manager and deleting the cache for the phone, contact list, and messanger without any effect. I have also tried completely resetting the phone and starting from scratch without any success as well.
It is sad because I have never had this issue before on my previous android phone (Droid X) and it is making me want to throw this phone against the wall!
Any insight would be greatly appreciated!
Try downloading app "Contacts Sync Fix" from the Play store. Worked for me!

Problem solved: I have an application called Call Control Pro that blocks telemarketer phone numbers. Apparently there was a bug that caused all contacts to disappear requiring a reboot for them to come back, process then repeats daily. They fixed the issue in the latest update. Thank goodness, because I was being driven crazy by this issue.

[Q] Gmail-app not syncing instantly

Hi!
I tried to do my due diligence before posting this. While this has been addressed in the past I didn't find any solution.
Anyhow, since a couple of days ago my Gmail-app (4.5.2) is not giving me instant notifications for new e-mails. I haven't flashed anything new or something along those lines. I did however disable some autostarts for Google Services Framework in order to resolve a wakelock, but that was 4 weeks ago.
Some symptoms:
It seems to sync eventually - this morning I found a notification for an e-mail that was received 6 p.m. the day before.
If I go to Settings > Google account > Sync Gmail I can manually force it to sync, which produces the notification.
Upon entering the app I find the e-mails there
Things I've tried so far:
Ensured that Sync is activated in the Notification Center-thingy you drag from the top
Ensured that sync is activated in the Gmail-app
Clear Gmail app-data > reboot
Clear Google Play Services app-data > reboot
Clear Dalvik cache (out of desperation more than anything)
Running Push Notification Fixer
Removing Google account and signing in again
So, the core of the problem seems to be that the app for whatever reason isn't syncing at the desired intervals anylonger: so instead of pushing, the mails needs to be pulled (semi-manually, it seems).
Many thanks for any input on how to solve this!

Hi Nollan,
It looks like I'm having the same issue as you. I see that no one responded to your question, but I was wondering if you ever figured out how to fix it.
Thanks,

[Q] [SOLVED] Big problems with nearly all google services

Hi (i know that i posted this in general android, but some may not read that)
I just got a new phone (Xperia Z Ultra (yay!)), but whenever i try to login to my google account, the following happen.
The login works.
Hangouts fail with the following: "Couldnt sign in possible because theres a problem with google account permissions"
Chrome fail with: "Unable to sign in"
Calendar, music widget and information about people doesn't sync.
Google Now fails: "Network error"
Google+ fails: Could not connect to server
Google Play Games just close when opening.
and i keep having a yellow triangle in my notification shade: "Login error for --email--"
I have tried both stock, CM and PA.
I would be really really grateful if someone could come up with a fix!
Thanks
If it doesn't work on Stock, CM and PA, there's clearly something going on with your account. Did you change some account settings that you can't remember? Did you change your password after you logged in on your Ultra?
I didn't change the password.
And i'm pretty sure no google settings where changed.
I worked fine when i set the device up for the first time yesterday.
But yesterday evening i flashed PA and logged in, and nothing has been working since.
I have already tried removing my 2 factor authenticator, resetting the device and then logging in again. Also did the same just changing my password instead.
Also on PA and CM i tried a couple of different google apps
and i tried logging in on both wifi and 4G
Try this.
Still has the sync error :-S
To make things even worse, i just tried logging in with my second google account, and everything sync and works just fine
Huh.. It's pretty clear that you're not the first one to have this problem (according to Google search), but I have no idea what's going on. It could be a fluke on Google's servers, so wait until tomorrow or later today and try again.

Make sure your system time and DATE are correct. That should fix it.

Thanks for all the help guys, iv'e contacted google and made a case.
Because everything except gmail has stopped working for me.
I'm unable to sign into chrome on my computer, Google Drive stopped syncing, i can't sign into Feedly (uses google authentication) and so on...
So wish me luck!
EDIT: YES! i just fixed everything, i just revoked every single thing under "Connected Sites, Apps, and Services"

Google calendar syncs issues (slow)

So it seems Google Calander on my Honor 9 can take >8 hours before it bothers to sync data from google servers.
As an example when i create a calendar appointment via the web interface on my PC i can leave my phone overnight and wake up and its still not picked up the new entry.
Is anyone else having these issues?
I understand EMUI has many power saving features so perhaps there is someway to say allow sync or something.
I kinda have the same problem, maybe even more.
My calendar won't sync with my Google Account, while I also can't update my apps (Wifi/4G), it'll stay pending whatever I do.
Also I can't receive push notification.
I've already cleared Play Store cache and Data, did a reset of all apps preferences, and many other manipulations I've seen on Internet, nothing has worked.
Maybe a factory reset will do the trick, but I don't want to save and backup my data.
This is really annoying.

Meizu M6 Syncing Issues

Hi all,
I am desperate to get some help with my new Meizu M6 (not Note) and I am posting here as I didn't find a specific M6 help page.
Overall great phone at great price but I ran into an issue with all gmail apps not syncing after few days. Here's a screenshot: https://imgur.com/a/UkyJw47
When I bought it and set it up it all synced fine. Then I noticed delay in emails (or not receiving them at all) and saw sync was sort of stuck in progress. I've tried everything to fix it:
1) Removed google account, cleared cache rebooted;
2) Soft reset;
3) Hard reset;
4) Twice firmware update;
Nothing helps. Essentially, I only see improvement when I Factory reset - no other measures ever get me to where all items sync. Contacts are stuck most notably because they affect Watsapp as well. Watsapp contacts are also stuck syncing. And I can't keep wiping my phone every two days to ensure i'm in sync.
I spent 1 week of email exchanges with Meizu customer service but to no avail. Does anybody have any ideas how to troubleshoot this? Maybe keep a logger running so we can see what's blocking the sync or something?
Thanks!
T.
I fixed it by disablng and then reenablng the Google Contacts Sync app. Has been working flawlessly since.
