I switched from defult 8gig card with phone to a 16gig pny, the watch app loaded no issue and now it wont?
Any ideas asvto how to fix?
I have copied the files across from old card again but with no joy?
I've just checked this out and I'm in the same situation!!
Same card as you as well...
Anyone have an idea about this?
I deleted my account and re-added it, but didn't work :s
K i fixed mine, i found if i went into my sync options and logged into the account then manually synced it, it allowed the app to open no issue!
There is a bigger issue then that it kill your battery its always.on constant sync watch the sync icon on top bar it almost never goes away unless you stop sync on settings.
I dont think watch is the issue?
I killed weather and mail and my problem stopped!
I have found a fix for this issue, use advanced task killer from the market, force stop watch then clear cache. Load the app re-enter your details it will close reopen and will then work

Anyone else have their sync symbol constantly "on" in the status bar... Even with no data transfers taking place? This has only been occurring for the last 24hrs or so. Weird.

Go under accounts & sync and uncheck one account at a time (try FB first). If the sync goes away, there's probably an issue with that account.
I have that issue as well. I have unchecked all of the boxes and it still does it. For me it does cause issues in getting gmail pushed to the phone. What else uses the sync feature that is not listed in the sync section?

After investigating this issue, I have a bad feeling this may be due to a bad/data-mining app - specifically, Tetris by Tetris Games (com.pp.tetris). Here's what I did...
After turning off all the syncing and background data in Setttings > Accounts, the sync icon persisted on the notification bar. I did some reboots, cleared app caches, etc., yet there it remained. I was beginning to get concerned that my phone may have been compromised by a "bad" app, but I didn't know which one. So knowing I had a good backup that I made last week from ROM Manager - I decided to install it.
After installing the "good" ROM, the sync icon disappeared from the notification bar. Where things got interesting is when I tried to restore my apps from the market. All went successfully accept for "Tetris" by "Tetris Games", which reported a download error when trying to restore. After checking the Android Market, I've discovered it is no longer available. Furthermore, I recall playing that Tetris app two days ago, just around the time the sync icon problem started.
So, while this isn't 100% confirmation that Tetris by Tetris Games is a bad app... I have a feeling it may have been sending data without authorization - hence its removal from the App Store.
I strongly urge those users who have it, to uninstall it.
that happened to me when i had the facebook picture gallery synced with the gallery on my phone. so as i logged out of it, it went away.
Interesting... How does one log out of the Facebook picture gallery?

I never used a tetris app.
How did you log out of the facebook photo gallery?
Have any of you updated to the OTA and seen this issue resolved?
Hey guys, I have been experiencing a problem since yesterday: Although syncing is activated (I tripple checked!) my google account does not sync anymore as long as I use mobile data (other apps like google chrome are able to use mobile data, however, so I am able to surf the internet). This also means that I don't get any emails in push from my gmail account. As soon as I switch to WI-FI, syncing works flawlessly, emails are pushed without any delay. Manual syncing works (pulling down in the gmail app or via the options in the google account settings on the phone).
Another weird thing is the signal status icon. When using WI-FI it is white, as soon as I switch to mobile data, it turns orange (I'm using nova launcher).
So I decided to completly wipe the phone and then reinstalled CM 11s 33R which I downloaded directly from the CM-page. I reinstalled all the apps afresh which means I don't think I carried any wrong settings from my last ROM over to the newly installed one.
Anybody got an idea what the reason could be that there is no syncing anymore and how I can resolve this?
Hi,
im facing the same problem since yesterday morning. I've recognized the exact same issues with the same situation.
As long as im in WLAN all is good. As soon as i am on mobile-data network push is not working anymore. I has been working before fine, but till yesterday it stopped. I didnt change anything in the configuration.
Very strange. I would be very happy if anybody has a glue on how to fix that.
I've also made twice a reset (once per TWRP, and another reset with android reset function) but both didnt help to get rid of that problem.

Push and sync works again with my device. Also, the orange color in the Signal Status is gone and it is White again.
Found something in the OPO-Forum (thanks to gabriel3714):
Go to:
google.com /Settings /security
under section "account permissions" find "apps and websites" and click "view all" then try and revoke access to you OPO and any other items that shouldn't be there. Then restart your phone.
If anybody still has Troubles, here are some other things to try which were sent to me in an email by Matt Oli:
If Sync isn't working when you're using your data, here are a few things to check for:
•Make sure that Background data is enabled◦Phone settings> Data Usage> Scroll down to Gmail and make sure that "Restrict background data" is not selected.
•Disable Power saving mode
•Clear your App's cache and data◦Open Phone settings> Select Application manager> Swipe to "All"> Choose Gmail> Clear cache and data
•Limit your folder size◦Open Gmail via a desktop> Settings> Forwarding and POP/IMAP> Next to "IMAP access" select "Limit folder size"
•Try Unsyncing your Gmail account temporarily. Try this a few times.◦Settings> Accounts> Google> Select your account> Uncheck Gmail> Check Gmail
•Resetting IMAP◦Gmail> Settings> POP/IMAP> Disable POP & IMAP> Save Settings> Re-enable IMAP> Save Settings
•Remove Gmail Account and setup again◦Phone Setting> Accounts> Google> Select you email account> "Remove account"
◦Re-establish account.

Hi all,
Have a strange "issue" with my Z3 Dual.
I noticed yesterday that the Downloader seemed to be running, even though I hadn't asked the phone to download anything. Sliding the notification open seems to suggest that the download isn't actually running, but simply keeps notifying.
Data is not being sent or received, and the items always seemed to be images. I had thought it was my work exchange email (through Mailwise) or maybe even IM chats downloading images. Uninstalled them and reinstalled and that did nothing.
Finally this morning, I received and email (through my Gmail) from my property manager, and it had a pdf, the same pdf was trying to be downloaded by the manager! So it appears, that on my phone at least, Gmail is asking my downloader to download, without the actual download initiating, but simply keeps a persistent notification there! I also have a nexus 9 with the newest Gmail and its not happening there.
Has anyone else had this issue? I'm about to roll back latest update of Gmail to see if it fixes.....
screenshot attached
Rolling back Gmail to original version has not helped.
It has happened to me, and it seems to be when using autodownload on any of the email apps if it begins to download and you suddenly lose the data is connection it gets stuck.
Just go to settings and apps and go to the Download app and clear the cache and data and that will take care of the persistent notification, then try to adjust your autodownload settings.

Agree with everything you've said, but in gmail, i've auto download of attachments on wifi to OFF, and Images to "ASk before showing". Not sure there are any other settings I can access?
I have, for the time being, turned OFF notifications from the download app - this is obviously not idea if I really DID have an actual download of a large size or being stuck I have no way of monitoring it.
Open to any other suggestions / ideas

Same happened to me (also have Z3 dual) but updating Gmail app seemed to fix this issue.
I have the dual sim z3. I originally had my active tmobile SIM in SIM slot 2 when I put it in SIM Slot 1 the problem went away. Rebooted and no more download manager in the background.
Since setting up my phone on 20th April, Google contacts has failed to sync, but Samsung contacts is working fine. This is showing up in both the Cloud/Accounts/Google contact sync and in the Contacts App /manage contacts/sync contacts. Is anyone else experiencing the same, thinking it may be that i used Smart switch to transfer content from my S6.

Download "contacts sync fix" from the play store and run it. Worked for me.
Is this with all contacts? Or just those You've entered in your new phone? What if you add a contact via the website? Does that sync to your phone?

I was having the same issue of not syncing Contacts in two Google Account, used the suggested app, it seems to be working. Thanks.
I've noticed I lost some contacts when I synched my s7 to my s8. I realized it when I would get texts from someone, see no name and just their number in the messaging app but was able to figure out who it was based on the message history which transferred over fine using smart switch. Of course the missing contacts were propogated to google and not sure how they got deleted.
Hope this solution might work for you ! I'm using S8 plus and the root cause was that the battery saving mode disabled these things

This sucks!
"sync is currently experiencing problems, it will be back shortly"
... AND I HAVEN'T SEEN IT WORK SINCE!
Does the app in the store kick it back into gear... Or is it just a temporary fix?
Fixed
After switching over to to the S8+ from the S7 EDGE, I
1. uninstalled the main Gmail account from my new phone
2. Reinstalled it
3. Restored contacts from main phone settings menu
4. Went to phone, contacts menu, and removed the "hide contacts with no number"
5. Magically, the contacts I wanted... were there. But they had their numbers stored in another account. Not sure why.
6. Copied and pasted the number I had been missing into all my main or pertinent Gmail accounts from within the contacts app of the phone.
7. Beautifully, the contact shows up now... AND... the phone backs up and syncs contacts as it should with no error message.
:laugh:
Thanks, my friend was having this issue on his older galaxy phone.

If you turn on power saving mode , just turning off the Power Saving feature .
I try on my Galaxy Note 5 it work....
This app fixed my contacts issue as well. I've used iOS for five years now, but now bought a Samsung S8. LOVE this new device! Only my new contacts wouldn't keep properly synced to my Google Apps account (basically my domain coupled with gmail). This app fixed this, everything now works peachy! I'm going to buy this app just to reward its creator! THANKS!

Disappearing contacts
I have Verizon S8+ and lately gmail contacts I have had in my Android phones for years, have started disappearing. Last week, I noticed in messages, a number with no name. when I looked at texts, I noticed this is a friend I have had in my phone for years and his number had been deleted in gmail. I noticed about 10 others that same thing has happened. I had to go back into gmail and enter number. Anyone know why this is happening?
Root cause = battery saving mode

I have the same phone and issue and this was the root cause too! Thank you!!!
What's annoying is that no where does it say anything about the mode interfering with your account settings.
Thank you for the find!
I am suffering from this problem as well, tried turning off battery saving mode, downloaded the contact sync fix app and still nothing. Still says last contact synced in March. Also my calender won't sync nor Keep Notes either :/

I have had the Note 8 for about 2 weeks now and earlier this week I just started noticing the freezing problem with the contacts and messages application. I have tried clearing data/cache. I have tried going into safe mode and removing third party apps. I have factory reset my phone as well. I have noticed that holding the contact down to select it will work, but simply tapping it freezes the phone. This goes for both the default messages and contacts apps.

The contact app is the same for both messaging and phone. It's a stand alone app. I've seen a few people with this issue, and am curious what causes it. I have had no issues with my so my guess is it has something to do with your setup.
Take a look at the below and see if any work
1.) What version of Contacts is in stalled on your phone?
I'm running v 3.4.04.4 Contacts and v 1.0.01.25 contacts storage. If you are not on either of those go grab the APK from APK MIRROR
2.) Check your account settings
Start with you Google account and see if there is a sync error. If not there then check Samsung cloud. If not there check your sync settings in the contact app. If there is any issue syncing it could be causing the crash.
3.) see if all of your contacts cause it to crash or just a specific one.
It could be an issue with something one app is trying to add to your contacts. I've seen linked in cause contacts to crash, and I've seen Facebook cause contacts to crash. If either of those are syncing with your contacts (check permissions) they could be causing the issue.
4.) Finally back on my S7 edge for some reason the contacts sync got jacked up when moving from my Note 4. The only thing that fixed it was running this app (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ru.ivary.ContactsSyncFix) Haven't had an issue since.
If any of these work let me know so we can help spread the word. Thanks.

Hi. I had similar problem. Try find solutions on web, none. Complaint to samsung facebook, no response. So I decided to;
1. Do System Update... but it says I have the latest installed already.
2. Open PlayStore, found out I set Auto Update to OFF. So I manually update everything (except Games apps)
3 Open Galaxy Store also Auto Update turned OFF. So do manual update everything (except games again)
4 Restart Phone
Dont know which steps solved it, but I dont have issue with Contacts or Message anymore. Its been more than 3 days now... no issue. So I guess you can try the above and see if it helps.
Its started to happen to me but while im in a game not on the phone or messenger.

If it's in game and not the contacts app try adjusting your performance mode in Gamer Tuner.
If it's not that then the game is probably the issue.
