Android Not Syncing Google Contacts - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi
Sorry if wrong thread, could not figure out correct thread for this question.
I'm not getting any errors, just not seeing my google contacts in Android contacts app.
This phone used to sync with google contacts no problem.
Then i removed the google account from the phone.
Then rebooted phone.
Then, re-added the google account to the phone, and sync'd contacts.
But, Android contacts app still not showing my google contacts.
How to fix?
I tried deleting the stored data in the Contacts Storage app, and then resync'd. But that did not fix.

[Q] Stock calendar not syncing with google calendar?

Hi all,
Just some strange behaviour in regards to my calendar. I added a bunch of entries in my Google Calendar, which synced fine to my phone. But I deleted all entries in Google, did a number of manual syncs and phone reboots, but the entries are still remaining in the phone calendar. They are completely gone in Google Calendar.
Any ideas?
Well I went through and deleted all the data from anything Calendar related which removed everything, now it's syncing with Google. However, it doesn't show my "Other Calendars". I have simple calendar widget which displays my other calendars in the options, but the stock calendar doesn't show them at all.
Edit: OK it looks like an issue with Facebook birthdays export. Just created a new calendar, exported the Facebook birthdays into this and all is good. Not surprised Google and Facebook aren't playing nicely!
I have this same problem, and I want to delete 'the data from anything calendar related'.
How do I do this?
Where is the calendar data stored?

Contacts not syncing with gmail acct.?? (Solved)

I cannot get my gmail acct to add the new contacts I put in my phone. Say I add 10 new numbers and contacts then sync with my gmail acct. Flash a new Rom after clearing all data then resign into my gmail acct. none of the contacts are there. This has happened to me several times and have lost some very important numbers in the process.
Anybody else having issues with google sync, or know another method to keeping all my contacts without having to write them all down and install them manually?

Sounds like you are adding them to the phone account instead of your google account.

[Q] Cannot sync google contacts to Streak contacts

Just purchased a Streak running Android 2.3.3. I set up my gmail account on phone and everything looked ok. Mail and calendar appear to sync fine but only a few contacts synced. When I open Settings/Accts & Sync, the gmail account shows and sync is turned on.But if I open Contacts/menu/Accounts, gmail does not appear and if I try to add an account, gmail is not present as an option. How do I get the google contacts to sync?
If I remember right you have to go into your Google Contacts on a web browser and move all your contacts into your My Contacts area.
problem solved
I discovered the problem. I had used Root Uninstaller to freeze the Google Sync application at the time I was trying to reduce the apps I didn't think I would need. Now everything in sync. Thanks

[Q] Can I recover synced Contacts from my Google Account?

Trying to resolve the Market issue, I removed my Google Account and reinstalled it, but this deleted all my synced contacts in the process.
Is there any way to recover them?
Sorry for not helping - because I can't - but am curious as to which "market issue" you're referring to?
Login to your gmail account on a PC and select contacts. If they are there you should be fine.
They should re sync when the account is added again. If not go on a computer and check the contacts in gmail, if they are gone which means they are deleted from the server. Gmail allows you to restore you contact list back to any point in the last 30 days. So it is really hard to accidently lose anything permanently.
Thanks for the help. Solved.

[Q] Google Contact Sync Errors

Has anyone else had a problem with their Google contacts syncing to their phone. I get the "Sync is currently experiencing problems. It will be back shortly message". I can download contacts from Google but it will not upload the new contacts i put into my phone from just regular day to day usage... I have backed up all my contacts on both sides then deleted all the contacts off my phone and my google account. I have wiped the data on the people app, contacts storage app, and the google account sync... I have deleted the groups and favorites... but still when i try to sync up it still give me the sync error... Has anyone else had this problem? Oh im running the Viper DNA rom btw.
