Hi,
I bought a nexus 4 recently, upgraded it to 4.3 and i noticed that it keeps me online on my google account all the time(on gtalk/hangouts).
I signed out from hangouts from my phone, it does sign me out from gtalk, but after sometime i guess some application is running and changing it to "online" again.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. My friends are complaining that i am online and dont reply!
Thanks
Try opening hangouts, go into the settings, click on your email and then click sign out. The only thing to know is that if you open hangouts it will automatically log you back in and then when you close the app again make sure to click sign out again

More details might help. What rom are you running, have you done anything special to it, what steps you've taken to try and fix it, is this your first android phone?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I777 using XDA App
Stock rom, just rooted. Ive tried syncing manually, clearing the calendar data, trying to fix it via google calendar website, tried a few calendar applications. Not sure what to do now.
Its my second phone, Inspire was my first
Does everything else sync?
From your response it sounds like you have looked this up already. So with that in mind maybe it's more of a small detail.
Are the calender events you're saving being saved to your Google calender or your local calender?

Well I dont really sync anything honestly. This is pretty much the first time I've tried to sync with this phone. The event is being saved onto my Google Calender.
Edit:
When I go into Settings>Accounts and Sync>My Gmail, it only shows Contacts, Gmail, and Picasa. No calendar here.
Wow. That's a first for me. How did you root your phone?

So when you access your calendar none of the events show up?
And you have tried opening the menu once you access the calendar going to settings->Calendar Sync-> selecting gmail syncing that way?
I know that with my calendar, contacts, etc. it took a long time before the information updated. I would say about 10-15 minutes and I did not create 5 months events more like major holidays and 250 or so facebook related events.
I would suggest giving it more time or rebooting the phone and trying the whole thing all over again.

that was for the Nexus 1 but maybe it'll work for you. Add a 2nd gmail account and see if that calendar sync option reappears.

Ok I added my 2nd gmail account, I get "Sync Contacts, Sync Gmail" only
If it were my phone I'd flash stock to see if that fixes it. Seems like the software is messed up. I can't think of any reason Calender wouldn't show up under sync.

Well I didnt flash any ROM, i just rooted so I can get a few rooted apps. Im new to this, but that means im still on the stock ROM right?
Correct, you're still on stock then. I really like entropy512's method, as it flashes stock (can help fix most system problems if you're running a stock rom) and it's rooted.
I'm not promising you wont lose what apps you've installed, but I've had a few times I've done it now and all my apps stayed installed. Pretty quick process all in all.

Hello,
I found something strange, with the sync disabled in System settings and in the application settings I still manage to receive mail from the corporate app (Exchange), however not from my Gmail account.
Thank you

Thank you, but this does not solve my problem.
As I use corporate mail application for my work, I don't want to freeze it, I just want to be able to stop synchronizing when I want it (e.g. week-end).
So I do not understand why I continue to receive corporate emails when accounts synchronization is shut off.

As you can see in my signature, I'm running CM9 nightly builds with the latest fluxi Kernel
I'm getting a notification that says "Permission requested for account ***@gmail.com" about once a day since I changed my gmail password a week or so ago. When I tap on it, it just clears and doesn't open up anything... I can't figure out which app is requesting it since all the accounts in settings are properly signed in. Any ideas of how to track this down?
Stock, not rooted, latest OTA.

Do you have Google Voice install?
Sent from my EVO using Tapatalk 2
Yes, it's signed in and I'm just using it for voice mail... But I noticed I've been getting my voice mails through the stock Sprint app lately. That's probably the same issue. I'll see what I can do. Thanks
Sent from my EVO using xda app-developers app
Yep it was definitely google voice. I signed out and signed back in, my voice mails are now being handled properly and I haven't seen the notification again. It would've been helpful if the notification was labeled more clearly or actually did something though...
Sent from my EVO using xda app-developers app
Ok turns out it's something else besides google voice.. I still am getting the permission requested notifications. Any ideas?

Google Wallet. It's doing it to me. It happens every time I try to sign into wallet.
I did the recent OTA, then did a factory reset. Now I can't get Google Wallet to work.
I just got a request to enter my account information for my gmail account on my galaxy note 5. Upon doing that, I was directed to grant or allow the app "EMAIL" to view and manage my email and to know who I am. I clicked on the name of the app called Email and it displayed the developer information as email: [email protected] Clicking Allow will redirect you to a native application.
How is this NORMAL for a SAMSUNG Native Application developer email address go to a gmail account WTF?
Hey guys,
For about 5 months now, I've been unable to purchase any apps in Google Play. In fact, I can't even see paid apps, only free ones.
I've tried clearing the data and cache for Google Play. I've restored the device to factory settings using the volume down and power button several times. None of that has worked.
I've emailed Google about it, but they have been useless. The only way for me to get paid apps on my tablet is to purchase them on my phone and then download them on my tablet. Which isn't ideal as some apps are incompatible on my phone. And I've noticed there are a lot of apps incompatible with the Transformer Prime.
I live in the UK and the device is set to UK. Please can someone help, it's driving me mad!

Not a solution but you can also purchase apps on the google play web and push them to your tab.
I can't, when I go through the website, my tablet is greyed out and won't let me purchase apps on to it.
I can't even see paid apps on the website! What the hell is going on??
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
Create another google play account to purchase apps for your prime with?!
What about the apps I've purchased with my current Google account, can I still use them?

Things currently installed shouldnt stop working I would think.
At any rate, it was really a suggestion to narrow the problem down to the account, not your device. Then take that info to google and tell them to freaking fix it.
I'm sure you want to get your gmail etc... so you would have to switch accounts everytime you bought something. Not practical.
You could though say "Hey google, I made this new account named X, logged in with my prime and was able to add apps.
Ah, yes, that's a good idea. I will try that over the weekend. Thanks for the suggestion.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
Well, I tried making another account but it's still not showing any paid apps. I'll send an email to Google, see if they can come up with a solution.
If anyone can think of anything else, please let me know.

Hello guys. I'm currently using a stock rooted 4.2 Galaxy S4. I used to own a china made android phone before this and the same issue happened as well so I'm pretty sure it's not due to the ROM.
My emails from gmail suddenly stopped syncing after a couple of weeks after adding my Google account. This has happened 4 times already and after Googling the problem I couldn't find any solutions. Neither restarting my phone nor clearing the Gmail app data from Application Manager helped. In the account manager it says that everything but email was able to sync successfully (according to the update date). The only solution I have found so far is to completely remove my Google account from the phone and add it again.
I have 2 step verification on my Google account and at first I thought that was the issue; that my authentication token had expired, so I generated an application specific password and used it, however the problem still came back. Really hope someone can help me as it's really frustrating to have to remove and add my account every couple of weeks. Thank you.
Hope someone can help me out..

Factory reset is what comes to mind for me. Just remember to back up your data first. Good luck
