Phone: Oneplus 5T
System Lineage 17.1
So i have just flashed my Oneplus handset with a clean install of lineage 17.1 & Open gapps 10.0 pico. During instalation i am required to log into my google account, which i did.
I then proceed to install my few required apps from the play store, i have not signed into any of the apps yet.
I then notice my contacts list has populated !! I have never added any contacts into google.
So i log into my google account on my laptop, check for contacts and it shows that i have no contacts.
So my question is where did my contacts list on my phone populate from? how do i remove them and stop this from happening again?

Hey,
I'm using Temasek's CM13 v4.3 with blu_spark r94.
I had install gapps from opengapps.org and got all but the contacts app connected with my Google account with no issue. Running the app brings me to a Google service login that will not let me login for my account "already exist on [my] device". The Accounts settings page and Google's sync shows no problem occurring and even has the Peoples confirming a sync.
It is as if I have no contacts on my Google account; I do.
A factory reset and updated gapps as well as grabbing Contacts from the app store shows no success. Is anyone else experiencing this strange mess or has an idea what is wrong?
I had this issue too, but after I waited a few hours (with wifi in) the issue was gone. Do you already looked online on the google contacts site? Maybe you really not have any contacts?
Sorry for my Bad english
Ciao
Fix
Caused by a bad apk in the package
Manually extract the apk from nano and put it in it's own folder in priv-apps

Can you give a little more detail/specifics? Still struggling to get contact sync working, much appreciated.

Thanks for the help. I tried but still do not work.
Will try with another GApps package tonight.
This worked for me ... Gapps missing Google Contacts Sync in the package
I found a solution. The problem is that the Open Gapps is missing or not installing the package Google Contacts Sync, which is needed for contacts to sync properly.
Install this apk:- apkmirror com/apk/google-inc/google-contacts-sync/google-contacts-sync-6-0-release/google-contacts-sync-6-0-2280749-android-6-0-android-apk-download/
(Add . after www and apkmirror)
And in Settings > Apps, enable the Contacts permission for Google Contacts Sync. Remove your Google account, reboot, and then re-add and your contacts should sync.
Hello Everyone. I have a Samsung Captivate Glide i927 (AT&T). It was running Omni ROM 4.4 but since the latest Google Play Services update keeps 'crashing' the phone (multiple pop-ups stating that Google Play Services has stopped), I have decided to go back to stock ICS 4.0.4
The problem now is that my Google account isn't syncing properly. My contacts, calendar, Keep notes are unable to sync. I keep getting an error that states that 'Sync is having problems.' I also can't connect to the Google account from certain apps like WhatsApp & SwiftKey keyboard and as a result, I can neither back my chats to Google Drive nor download my customs words for the SwiftKey keyboard app. I can however use the Google Drive app normally. The Play Store also works properly.
I have done everything that I can think of (& read online). They are:
1. Deleting the Google Play Services cache.
2. Emptied the phone's cache. I also formatted it & the Dalvik cache in CWM.
3. Removed my Google account from the phone. Restarted & added the Google account.
4. Reset the phone to factory settings.
5. Re-flashed the official/stock 4.0.4 ROM by using Odin.
6. Changed my Google account password to 'force' everything to 'reset' and resync.
7. I have added a hash prefix to the localhost IP address in the hosts file in the 'etc' folder. I have also deleted it.
Syncing still doesn't work for those services. I am at my wit's end. Please can anyone suggest a solution?
Thanks.
NB: I posted this question in the Samsung i927 section but there was no answer or comment.

Anyone? Pls
I thought I'd write a little guide on how to get Microg working with LineageOS, I've used Nanodroid in order to allow signature spoofing, since it isn't enabled in our LOS build (Play Store will not connect without this). So if you'd like to be free of GAPPS and want to try microg then follow the guide below.
STEP 1 - ENSURE YOU HAVE A CLEAN INSTALL, do a factory reset - If you don't, you'll get a bootloop after installation or errors with sync
STEP 2 - DOWNLOAD THE ZIPs you can find them here - androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=198483
There are two you need, one is the signature spoofing patch, and the other is Microg core. Or you can install the entire NanoDroid package which contains a whole bunch of useful open source apps, the full list of what's included is available here -
github.com/Nanolx/NanoDroid/blob/master/README.md
Once you have the files you need, reboot into recovery.
STEP 3 - Flash the patch first, then Microg or the full Nanodroid zip.
All going well you should now have everything you need, reboot.
STEP 4 - If you've booted all okay you should see an app labeled Microg Settings, open that and you'll see the option to check your installation. If everything is ticked you should be all good.
STEP 5 - If you only installed the bare minimum for Microg then you may need some more apps in order to get a few things working, the first is Network Location Provider which is available on F-Droid
droid.org/app/org.fitchfamily.android.dejavu
After installing this you should now see that under your Microg Settings UnifiedNlp is now ticked. This is required if you wish to use location services which are needed by some apps.
STEP 6 - If you use Google to store your contacts or use Google Calender then follow this to get Sync working - You'll have to login to your Google account first and enable logging in from less secure devices. Now since we don't have the Sync adapters from google anymore, we need another way to condavdroid
f-droid.org/app/at.bitfire.davdroid
Davdroid is an open source CalDAV/CardDAV sync adapter which will allow you to sync your contacts and Calender from Google
Open up DavDroid and add an account, choose the option that says Login with URL and password.
Google has the CardDAV service set uPMs
o use OAuth2, which does not support the username/password method of authenticating that DAVDroid uses. This URL is noted to possibly change in the future and should not be depended on for long-term synchronization.
Open DAVDroid and go to the page for adding a new service to sync with. Select the “Login with URL and user name” option. Enter this URL as the base URL, replacing*[email protected]*with your actual email:
Default contacts list:
googleapis.com/carddav/v1/principals/[email protected]/lists/default
STEP 7 - If everything went well with DavDROID you should now be able to Sync, however first you need to go to your phones settings, wipe the storage for the following Contacts, Contacts Storage and Phone/Dialler then reboot.
Your contacts should now Sync.
So there you go, a short guide to help those that want Microg. I spent hours trying to work out these issues so I hope it helps!.
Should anyone need any more help with us I will respond to PMs
i tried this but update to kernel pack couldn't work on 15.1 lineage, i wanted it to work SO bad too LOL.
@x86ARMx64 Can this be adapted to LOS 14.1 for other Samsung devices?
I am very new to working with/modifying an Android device.
I recently followed the instructions to successfully install LineageOS on an HTC smartphone. Included in those instructions was a section explaining how to install something called GAPPS. So, I did that.
I now have GAPPS on my phone, but never set up a Google account on it. Nor have I installed any of the "usual" Google apps: Maps (I have location turned off), gmail, calendar, photos, contacts, etc., nor do I plan to need or use them. Sooooo........ Two questions:
1) What, if any, information is Google able to extract from my phone?
2) What, if anything, is GAPPS "doing" on my phone in my current setup?
Thanks.
Google apps asking 4 Google account login each time they are installed ignoring system account with latest version of microg. Also Google sync is off permanently. In play service info app gfslogin and instant is showing missing.
Have you come across such scenario.
