Can't help, but I'd like to know how you are syncing any bookmarks from Chrome on a PC to your EeePad, I have sync configured on my PC using the same Google account as on my EeePad, but I don't see any way to pull the bookmarks down.
What's the config ?

Does anybody else expediences the problem sync problem? Mines fixed automatically on 2011 Aug 18 and on 2011 Sep 18 it stopped working again. Google dashboard shows chrome info. Logcat says something like this:
Code:
I/BookmarksSync( 265): Sync failed due to soft error: While parsing a protocol message, the input ended unexpectedly in the middle of a field. This could mean either than the input has been truncated or that an embedded message misreported its own length.
D/SyncManager( 137): failed sync operation [email protected] (com.google), com.android.browser, SERVER, earliestRunTime 4439211, SyncResult: stats [ numIoExceptions: 1]
BTW there is an open issue on this at code.google

does anyone else still suffer this problem? My bookmarks haven't synced since 30th August. Anyone have a way to force a sync?

Browser -> Settings -> General -> Syn -> Sync with Google Chrome.
It will ask what you want it to do with any existing bookmarks on the tablet. I have used it since September and it works GREAT. I did have an issue at one point but was easily able to resolve it sufficiently.
So nice being able to sync bookmarks

I have been using chromemarks..
Out of all the ways at this stage it has been the most reliable for me..
I have over 3500 bookmarks and it has been keeping them synced nicely..
Was using firefox for a while but seems to have lost the ball a little..
The only complaint, I got with chromemarks is that to get to a bookmark deep in there you have to keep going
back to the top of the directory tree then work your way down into the sub-directries
The joys of research..

My bookmarks have never completely synced on the transformer. It seems to only have problems with the bookmarks that I have in folders and subfolders, all others seem ok. This has been like this since day one and even when it says it has synced them, some in my folders are still not there.
I'm pretty sure Asus knows about some of these sync problems because there has been updates for bookmarks in the last two updates, but nothing I have tried or Asus has done has fixed this. It would be nice to have it work correctly someday Cheers.

I cant sync any of my bookmarks. I get the following.
"sync is currently experiencing problems. it will be back shortly."
This came after i updated the tf to 3.2.1. It was working fine in 3.1 and 3.2.

(PROBLEM) Inesoft Calendar

tried the above today, so using the latest version.
the GUI has problems, once I switch to Today or List or anything that changes the page, all the entries disappear. Only works again (for the first load) if I exit and restart the app.
anyone else got this problem?

I had the exact same problem, went back to v2.27 and its working great again.
Maybe u can try using SBSH Calendar Touch.
I am using it and it works well with HTC HD2
I have it installed on the Tilt2 and have the same problem. What I have found that fixes it for now is to shut down the software, then delete the file InesoftCalendar.vol file from the device. Once deleted start the program again and then update your calendars.
Make sure to disable the autosync function from the program otherwise when it syncs you will have trouble with the software again. I am disappointed that they have not yet fixed this nor responded to my e-mails.

As mentioned above 2.27 has no problems and it appears the same as the latest build ie/ it gets updated so often but looks the same
How can I get the older version?

Problem starting Inesoft calendar
Hi, this is my first post.
I installed Inesoft calendar just fine. Downloaded my Google calendars and appointment, no problem. But here's what happens, if I exit the program I can't start it again. (The apps name briefly appears in top left hand corner of the screen)
I've tried to uninstall and reinstall the app, same result.
Any ideas as to what is wrong?
I like Inesoft calendar because it lets me have multiple separate calendars. So if anyone knows of another program for WM 6.5 that can do that I would to hear.
I know of app's that can sync multiple Google calendars to Outlook, but I'm on a Microsoft exchange server, and my Outlook calendar is also my work calender viewable by all my colleagues, so syncing is not an option.

[Q]Mango and syncing Google contacts...error?

Hi all, I've updated to Mango and ever since then my Google contacts list has failed to sync ("there was a problem syncing, please try again later error 8004010f"). This is with a Google account tied to another email address not an @gmail.com address. If I put in an incorrect password or incorrect server details I get different errors so it seems as if I'm at least getting the details correct. I've tried all the steps I could find (mainly a useless KB article) so I'm wondering whether it's a Mango thing. Or possibly a Google+ thing?? (No I'm not on it.) Either way I foolishly unchecked the 'sync contacts' box so i now dont have any contacts

My google account sync perfectly with mango in my trophy...so must be something in your phone...Maybe the tied account has to do something with it
I figured it wasn't a common problem or I wouldnt be the only person complaining about this
Well, some more testing, I have tried deleting the account from my wp7 and adding it again - still the same error msg.
Bizarrely, though my Google contacts don't show up in my people hub, if I go to the hub and search for a contact and then hit "search Google directory" the contact will appear.
Also, checking my Google dashboard under Google Sync shows a "last sync: 8:25pm" or whenever the last time I tried to sync was. So I'm fairly certain this is an issue with my particular phone...Maybe it's time to hit the Microsoft support forums!

I think I know what's up
So I woke up this morning and the google sync button required attention. So I clicked on it and synced and well.. my contacts disappeared. Now I was perplexed by this. I erased and re introduced my account information. And nothing... so I went ahead and went to the Gmail webclient and somehow my contacts had been deleted. Google now has a function where you can restore your contacts. And I was able to sync again... Lets see how long this lasts. Let me know if you are able to fix your issue
Jose Moreno
I'm having the same issue on my Arrive. Can't sync and foolishly tried to delete and reconnect now all my contacts are gone. Did you figure out anything?
Actually, its not the exact same issue as I reread your problem as I am trying to sync directly with a gmail account, however, I am having the same results and same error.
Ah yes. I should've updated this. I never found a fix...but what I did do was add Gmail and Calendar to my google account. Then it synced fine. Not ideal as I never use Gmail but meh. Sorry I haven't got anything better!

[Q] Browser didn't sync bookmarks

After I flashed a custom ROM the Browse didn't sync the bookmarks.
Whith stock was fine working.
anybody can help
You should always manually backup your book marks anyway, even on my house pc i have it backed up sevral times on diffrent drives!
I hope you used a back program for the other rom!
The problem is not that i lost my bookmarks because i use the coustom rom.
i want to sync the bookmarks from crome over the cloud direct to the browser.
i'm having the same problem running prime 1.5, here's what i see in logcat:
D/SyncManager( 169): failed sync operation ***@gmail.com (com.google), com.android.browser, LOCAL, earliestRunTime 6351479, SyncResult: stats [ numIoExceptions: 1 numEntries: 1809]
today the tf sync some bookmarks, 5 of 100 i hope in the next days ore houres i get more. Did someone know if the issue is from google server ore from tf self.
Same issue without custom ROM.
Hello all,
I have a B60K that I can't seem to get the stock browser to sync bookmarks with. This was on the 3.1 that came with the TF along with the one from earlier today (Kernel 2.6.36.3-00011-g3eb19ec).
It worked fine on my old B50K (also stock, just with the previous 3.1 update).
I have tried Resetting the browser to default a few times along with deleting the account and setting it up so that I am only syncing the browser on the TF and only syncing bookmarks in Chrome.
An odd thing is that now the B50K TF will no longer sync. I had reset it to factory but not returned it yet. If I boot it up and just setup what is needed to sync the browser it doesn't work.
Below are a couple of messages I that helped me find this post.
Any assistance with the sync would be great. That being said, I would also be happy if anyone could point me in the right direction for just importing the bookmarks as a temp work around.
Thanks in advance,
Matt

I am stock 3.1 with latest OTA. The bookmark sync stopped working about a week ago, not long after installing Google+
I get about 50 bookmarks, starting fom the last ones, then sync fails.
Would love to know if anyone has fixed this.

I am getting the exact same thing on my Galaxy Tab 10.1 running rooted-but-otherwise-stock 3.1. I have tried deleting the account but that didn't help. Local problem (client) or problem on Google's side? Any known fix yet?
I am having this problem too today. US TF with latest OTA, unrooted. Looks like a server problem.
Workaround is to export your chrome bookmark into Dropbox.

Thank you and where should I put the bookmarks.
I am also not sure what to do once I get a bookmark folder onto the TF. While Dropbox will make it easier to keep them synced, it doesn't actually help those of us that are looking for a method of importing them into the stock browser.
Is the idea that it is just an html file that we call up with one long list of bookmarks?
In the interim, you could try chromemarks, it will at least extract all your synced bookmarks into the app, and you can launch from there. The dev noted that Google made changes to their db structure which required a fix on July 12. That's right around when my sync started to fail.
I haven't found a way to import into the stock browser. Looking forward to seeing this fixed.

Thanks mike5065. I tried chromemarks. Now I do have my Chrome bookmarks on the TF. That said, I need the full chromemarks version to integrate them into the stock browser.
Does anyone have any ideas for a free method to import bookmarks into the stock browser?

Don't buy the full version of chromemarks it can't integrate bookmarks to the tf browser.

Thanks for saving me (and it sounds like some others) some money. Does anyone have any other ideas?
hello all, and just wanted to share a bit of info I saw on the web--can't remember where. It seems Google changed the way it handles chrome bookmarks and sync sometime about a week ago, and that's why we can no longer sync. Hopefully an update will come that fixes it.
Wow, I just figured out some interesting things that might help clarify troubleshooting and apps for this issue for others as well.
There is a distinct difference between Chrome Bookmarks and Google Bookmarks. Further, they are not compatible. In fact if you want to import Chrome Bookmarks into Google Bookmarks you have to either do it via Firefox or a Delicious Bookmarks account. At any rate, Google Bookmarks seem to work fine syncing with HC right now. It is just the Chrome Bookmarks that are having an issue.
Here is a Google forum entry where they seem to be tracking a current issue with Chrome Bookmarks not syncing:
http://www.google.com/support/forum...ae&hl=en&fid=27043147d44d99ae0004a85d5169dc33
It may be a good idea if we start posting to that forum in order to (maybe) speed up any fix. It may add more urgency to the issue if Google realizes that the scope of the impact is greater then they thought.
Hope this is helpful to some.
Oh, on a quick side note, does anyone know if there is a name for the Honeycomb stock browser? Googling "Honeycomb stock browser" for this issue doesn't seem to help narrow down the search. It would be nice if I knew the name.
Thanks.
A bit update: if you go to settings->accounts & sync->manage accounts, click the up-right corner sync icon, you might notice the same thing as mine: all other sync are updated with the current time except the "sync browser".
The strange thing on mine is that part of the bookmarks are synced, but not all.
looks like it might be fixed, my bookmarks started magically syncing again today

No such luck for me. I did get two empty folders to show up, but nothing else. Are you sure you got all of your bookmarks? Can you check HC account settings to see if the browser has really finished syncing?
Thanks.

[Q] Problems with re-sync browser bookmarks in 3.2

Hi, today I install 3.2 Rom and tiamat 2.0.0 kernel and I have problems with sync of browser bookmarks... I can´t do it to work.
I sync with PC and Macbook pro without problems with chrome but I can´t sync my Xoom...
I read another forums and there is a lot of people with the same problem.
Can someone help us?.
Tnx
Chrome bookmark sync doesn't work with Android devices. Your best bet is to use "Chrome to Phone" and push the bookmarks that you want to your Xoom.
i know its broke for me in 3.2... 3.1 and 3.01 worked fine.

Having the same problem here. Worked fine before.
add me to the list, 3.2 stock. Never used chrome on pc only on xoom. But I have the same sync issue.
Same problem with bookmark sync. Rooted 3.2.
No customer rom or kernel.
Same Sh**
Same thing here ...
I've tried to post everywhere, but nobody seems to know anything about this.
I've gone back to 3.1 with full wipe, but the sync problem stays
seems to me something gone really wrong on the Google side of the equation ..
same also here, fine on 3.1, not working for gmail account (main acccount) on 3.2 with tiamat 2.0
Thought is sunk with apps account as a test, but now nothing is syncing.
Yep will sync with a google apps account quickly, but not my main google account and one I use for appstore etc.
Also when "sycing" with my main gmail/google account, it won't save bookmarks either - it says saved to bookmarks but bookmarks within the browser is empty "there are no bookmarks"

Syncing Google calendars

So, I have a galaxy Nexus and my girlfriend has a stratosphere, i am able to get her calendar synced to my phone, but not get mine on hers. We can get the calendar onto her google calendar via the browser, but will not sync to her stock calendar app. Any ideas?

Sync to Google calendar on Litening Rom v2.3 failure
Hi,
I'm am currently experiencing a similar issue. I recently rooted a Samsung Galaxy S2 (i91000) with an original kernal (XWKK2) and flashed the Litening Rom v2.3 onto the device. Everything else works fine but the syncing with google calendar. I noticed in the changelog that v2.2 had added the google calendar but I'm unsure whether the syncing aspect was added. I was originally intending to post to:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1095274
but because I am a new member I am unable to. I'm wondering if other people are experiencing this issue?
The error message was very vague. I will include it on a follow up post. I am hoping to bump this post as I haven't been able to find a solution yet.
Many thanks for the help,
Pat
Edited text: I'm hoping to get a response first just so I know whether to install ADB - i.e. whether this is already a known issue or not.
I had this problem and solved the syncing last night. On your mobile device go into settings, applications, manage, all, then find calendar storage and clear data. Ok that and reboot. It will then resync with your online calendar.
See vmiller's post in following link.

Calendar was syncing with my kf but not my Droid X. Did this on my Droid x and it syncs fine now.
Thanks so much!
I'll try this soon.
Looks like this will solve the issue.
I'll thanks the post when I can - did more then 8 today
Cheers,
Pat
Oh, and only need to do that once.
It solved the problem of new events created online or on kf not showing up on my Droid and it solved the problem of new events created on Droid not appearing online and on my kf.
IMHO , when i log in my google account , the calendar start sync
Hi guys,
I've tried it on the phone and it seems to work after the restart. However, if you restart the phone again (for any reason), the sync issues reoccur. I've found that if I clear the data, restart the phone and re-sync it works but it fails to sync again once the phone is restarted. I'll stick with the workaround for the moment but I hope a fix comes about.
Cheers,
Pat
