My Contacts have been refusing to sync for over a week now; the circular arrows showing the Contacts sync stay visible all the time, and the sync date/time does not update. All my other accounts are working, it's just the Google contacts. I've tried clearing various caches, removing and readding the account, downgrading Play services, reinstalling completely, nothing works. I've never had this problem before. I think it may have something to do with the Play services for Instant apps that was rolled out recently; things started getting wonky around that time. I don't know for sure. I'd rather not have to reflash over this though.

hey guys,
I've been having a problem with my gmail calendar not syncing, which is very important to me. Not sure if anyone else has this issue. It worked for about 2 weeks then stopped. I still got email, but not sure if my contacts were syncing. I tried the manual sync in Accounts and it said it was synced, but it wasn't. No phone to gmail or gmail to phone on the calendar. I set up a multiple day event (every thursday) and that was when it stopped working.
Anyway, here's how I got it working again. I went into Settings/Applications/Manage Applications, then the ALL tab. First I opened the Calendar Sync Adapter and Clear Data. (That didn't fix it, but I'm not sure if it fixed something else, but this is all the steps I took.) Next was Calendar and Clear Data. (Still no fix). Lastly was Calendar Storage and Clear Data. I'm not sure if the last one was the important one or it was a combination of all three, but that seemed to fix it. I had to re-enter all the events that were originally inputted through my phone so you might want to write those down, but now my phone goes both ways... with gmail... haha. Hope this saves someone some time.
Oh, and I'm stock 2.2.2 not rooted.
What bloat ware have u frozen/uninstalled also you could try force stopping you calender and clearing data and reboot idk if it will do ne thing but its worth a shot
I'm unrooted stock. I haven't frozen or uninstalled any bloatware. I cleared the data and that seemed to do the trick for a day. Now I'm starting to have the same problem again. I haven't rebooted since so I guess I'll try that.
I have an exchange account set up to sync email, tasks, and contacts, but for some reason not all of my contacts will sync. And it seems like the contacts that won't sync are some of the most used ones. I have numbers for people I've never called, but most of my family, friends, and coworkers aren't in here.
Anyone have any idea why? I have it set up the same as on my international Note, where there were no problems, and I've gone over the settings several times now.
Nevermind, I gave up and did a hard reset. The problem was related to another problem I was having that I posted about a couple days ago. I kept getting lag and an error about google services framework stopping unexpectedly.
When I went to the account settings, I could clearly see google contacts was failing to sync and every time it would try, that's when I would get that error message. I didn't want to do a hard reset, but finally gave in.
Am I the only one having issues with Gmail not picking up new emails? So far, even though I have it configured to automatically sync, I have to manually sync in Gmail to pick up new emails. I have tried dropping and re-adding the Google account, turning off sync and back on, clearing data in the Gmail app, and restarting the phone. I read somewhere that it may have to do with being on Wifi at work, but it doesn't matter if I'm on Wifi or 4g, still the same behaviour. I have a work email account setup through activesync and am having no issues with that. My old phone (Droid 2) would pick up new Gmail emails within seconds. I'm running the root66 stock-based rooted ROM. Any ideas welcome!
Aaaand, it's fixed. I'm honestly not sure what did it. Newish things I tried included fixing permissions, clearing data/cache for Gmail and Google Services Framework, clearing system/dalvik cache. I'm now getting emails within a minute of them being sent, which was what I came to expect on Gingerbread. Who knows? Cheers!
Automatic sync gets locked up and never finishes. The sync status icon remains. What I find works, is if only one sync process is going at a time. If more than one, then sync hangs. I tried removing a google account and re-adding it, to no avail. I tried deleting the caches and files for the different apps also. However, based on the discovery that any individual syncs work, as long as they are not concurrent, I think it is not an app or cache or file issue.
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.
