Hi,
I've upgraded my Nexus S to ICS 4.0.3, and my market started to tell that an account is needed, I was always using this account.
I've upgraded my Nexus while in roaming, and there it worked just fine, now I'm back in portugal and the account stoped working.
The timezone if I don't set it to te carrier or choose it has also the default value of the roaming city.
How can I solve this problem, without reSetting the phone?
Do I have to remove the google account and set it up Again, i might have some new contacts not synched that i don want to loose.
I've used market while in roaming over a wi-fi network and it worked just fine.
Please help.
Thanx.
Try deleting your account from your phone (settings, accounts&sync, choose the account press menu, delete account), and then readding it again.

Try to go into Application Options and clear the cache of the Market Application,than terminate it.
After that,restart the market.
Well just try to remove the google account, reboot and add it again.
Are you asking if removing the google account removes your contacts, or just that you have new contacts on the phone and worry about them not being able to sync?
If the former, removing your google account does not have any effect on your contacts. If the latter after re-adding your account google contacts should resume syncing, providing it works.
If you are worried about your contacts just export them to a file and save it to your computer.

I find that there are SIM Contacts, Phone Contacts, and Google Contacts.My plan is that my official contacts are Google Contacts.
Do I need to have a data connection to see them? I don't want to count on a data connection being always there.Not quite sure how to proceed on this.
I find that not all of my Google contacts are on the phone if I select "Google contacts" only for contacts. I don't see a 'Sync' opton either.
Any thoughts?
on my current android device all of my google contacts sync and stay on my device. Mine is set up differently as I only have one set of contacts, but you shouldnt need a data connection once they've all synced unless you make changes.
Thanks.
So what are the thoughts about the fact that I have (maybe only 1) contact/s that are in my Google contacts, but not on the phone.
[edit]
I clicked the search, and found the contact. But the contact is no in my list. Only contacts I have displaying are Google Contacts. Maybe one thing I might need to do to be sure I don't get it all confused, is delete them from SIM and phone. But not sure how to do that, and be sure I don't delete from Google Contacts.
[EDIT2]
Well not having any luck. I tried adding another account (my wife's), but that won't work. Because there is no selection to synch calendar only. You must sync email. Don't want her email.
Looks like I need to hard reset the phone So, my next order of business is to figure out how to backup everything, so I don't have to do all the config again. Of course, what I don't know is if the restore will just bring the problem back, assumint the hard rest fixes my isse. I'll create a new post on backup topic.
Hi all,
I noticed a few days ago my HD7's battery was lasting just a few hours after a full recharge. I have now found that the phone is constantly syncronising all the email accounts! (1 live, 1 exchange & 1 Imap)
All 3 accounts are greyed out in the email settings page, so I can't even remove them.
I don't want to do a factory reset as I'll lose all of my Txt messages
Anyone have any ideas...?
Cheers
JQ
Have you rebooted your phone? Also, not absolutely certain about saving text messages but, I believe Live will restore all settings and info after a hard reset. It did on mine when I was switching out HD7s. Just make sure Live sync has run.
Well hard reset will definitely not bring back smses.
As for the sync: for 99% it's some kind of currupted email data.
Maybe try to clean these email accounts. It must be something like that.
I've had similar issue but with looped Contacts sync. Device was endlessly counting synced contacts, I was forcing this to stop after reaching 20000......
The problem was gone once I cleaned my contacts and removed corrupted data. This problem appeared after I made first ActiveSync from my WM6.5 device.
Now it's fine. WLive syncs hotmail emails, calendar and contacts.
Hope this helps......
Hmmmm not sure I can clean out my emails...
The live account has no emails in there, and my Exchange account has over 11,000 so don't want to mess with that!
I've tried disconecting from the internet (airplane mode etc) to see if the sync ever times out but it never does.

Do you try to sync all that 11,000 emails to your phone? Or just a few days worth of it?
Only the last 7 days worth.
I've changed the passwords on all my email accounts, thinking it might stop as it cant access it, but no joy...
Wierdly the Hotmail mail icon on the start screen has dissapeared and is gone from the apps list (ie I can't go into my hotmail email list)...
Q
Hard to say. It may be a problem started with 11000 emails but I am not sure.
But I'm sure there are some things which cause sync corruption and in this case
only hard reset helps. I think 11000 emails is sick for a device.
it started when my live account didn't update with new emails.
Now the live account is in the email list (under settings) but has completly gone from the rest of the phone! Like if I try and forward a picture via messaging, the hotmail account is not listed, when the exchange and Imap accounts are...
Hopefully the next update will be here within a week or so, and that may solve my problem...
Q
Same problem here, but with contacts. Live is constantly syncing. If you want to stop it, turn off wifi, turn off data and 3G in cellular settings and it will stop. Then go to settings for that account and write some bull**** in server adress. It will not be able to connect again.
I tried to clean all contacts from my live account, then sync with phone (which removes contacts from phone). Then i imported the contacts again to live and synced again. sync loop was back...
Any advices? This is common problem with all WP7 phones. Lot of people have this problem. I also dont want to hard reset. I am using different live account, which syncs just fine.

I don't think you can deal with it without hard reset.
I had this contacts loop and it was caused by corrupted and doubled contacts in Hotmail, plus the number of it - it was 1400.
After I sorted this - cleaned, removed empty ones and unnecessary, everything works perfect. So the deal is to clean corrupted data.
problem is that the email accounts never time out, even if there is no data connection, therefore I can't change passwords or anything...
Try to use airplane mode. It should disconnect everything.
yup tried that, no joy
i started using a samsung omnia 7 this weekend, and had the same problem with stuck e-mails. a soft reset while in flight mode did the trick for me. i could then delete all the accounts that were stuck.
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.
Solution to your problem
Hi, I had same issue.
Go to Keep website. Remove all shared notes. (Delete them, Don't Archive). Go back to Keep on Android. Clear data from Settings -> App -> Keep and launch app again.
Problem solved.
Hi im facing an issue with google sync, im not able to get the game data sync option in google sync. i have updated google play services,play store..and also play games. kindly help me if know any solution.
I am currently running on cm11 rc3...it was working before..now its not...
So back in October, my wife and I both purchased the Note 5. We started using Google Photos, and I found a way to add both of our google accounts to each others phones so we could share our photos instantly. I had a problem adding her account to my phone, as it would sync everything (contacts, calendar, health data, etc.) immediately, but this did not happen when adding my account to her phone. I messed around with it for some time, and found an option that was not the same on both of our phones. (I think it was the backup account, but can't remember for sure). Whenever I disabled the option, whatever it is, on my phone, it allowed me to add her account without initially syncing. Keep in mind, my method for doing this on both phone was as follows every time I tried it.
1. Turn off Global Auto Sync
2. Add alternate account
3. Turn Off Mobile Data and WiFi so the phone was not online
4. Turn Auto Sync back on
5. Settings>Accounts>Google>(other account) and turn off Auto Sync on everything except Photos (Gmail in the case below)
6. Turn On Mobile Data and WiFi
Kerblam! Success.
However, I am trying to accomplish the same thing with another google account I have an alternate use for, but only want the gmail to sync. But no matter what I try, every time I add the account, it initially syncs everything. (I know this because next to every category, it says "Last Synced on MM/DD/YYY hh:mm) And obviously, all of my other account contacts, calendar data, etc. appear. I don't want to take the chance of just manually deleting everything after turning off the sync for each item in case the sync gets turned back on after some update or somethings, and it syncs the account with the phone and I lose everything. Has anyone had success doing this? I've been scouring the web for quite some time now with no luck. Neither Google or Samsung were of any help. Thanks in advance for any help : )

Hi!
I am getting crazy. :crying::crying:
Since about 2 weeks ago my H955(rooted and xposed) and my friend's (original) do not sync properly GMAIL anymore (actually it sync randomly only 3-4 times at day).
I tried everything: deleted the system app and installed a new one from the market, I changed the account on my phone but nothing. The problem is still there.
As u can see from the screenshoot it seems that my google account sync randomly the google apps.
Do you have any suggestion?
PS: I am writing here cuz I tried my account in other 2 phones and it works like a charm and we have the same problem if we use another google account on ur phones.
I just noticed that hangout has the same problem. This morning I found a chat from a friend of mine of yesterday morning
Same here
I've got the same thing going on. I've tried everything I've found online and nothing has any effect. My G Flex 2 is unlocked and rooted but on the stock rom. It's not my account because it works fine in my old Nexus 4, and other Android devices I use.
Has anyone made any headway with this?

I had a similar issue with hangouts for a while, but recently fixed it when I went around and logged out of all my devices, and logged back into just a few of the important ones for hangouts.
I think one big issue was when I got messages and a shared device was on and hangouts running, it "saw" the notification first and never went through to the rest of my devices.
try to remove and re add the account 2-3 times .
try to clear data from google related apps gmail playstore....
maybe these fixes also resolves your issues https://www.androidpit.com/how-to-solve-google-play-store-errors
Fixed!
Thank you so much! I found a fix on that androidpit article. Specifically I followed these steps:
Delete your Google Play Store data in Settings > Apps > All > Google Play Store > Clear data. Delete data from Google Services Framework as well (note: this will assign a new Google ID to your device, as if you had factory reset it, meaning your Google apps may temporarily act up afterward).
Delete your Google account on the device, reboot your phone and re-add your Google account in Settings > Accounts > Add Account > Google Account.
