"Unfortunately, Google calendar sync has stopped" - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III

This is the message I get every time I try to sync my phones calendar with my Google account calendar. No appointments are showing up on my phone. Everything else such as e-mail and contacts sync just fine. I was on NoSympathy ROM.
Hard reset didn't work. I even flashed stock unrooted ROM via Odin. Now pretty much back to the phones original condition.
Still not syncing and getting the same message. So it's either the hardware (didnt think this could be a hardware problem) or a problem with my Google account (then why would email and contacts sync no problem?)
I'm stumped. Should I take the phone to the store?

when you go to calendar, settings, under sync settings(sync events/tasks) does it show your gmail acct?

Yes it does.

I'm having the problem with Google contacts too. If I add a new picture to my google account it will sync right too my phone but the ones I added before using Odin one click will not sync. Is there a way to force the pics to sync?
I tried to change some info on a contact thinking that might force a sync. The info updated but not the pic.

Where did my google account go?

I lost my google account all of the sudden. Is it this rom (BAND 3.0) or a google thing our maybe the MR2.5 radio. I went to check a message in gmail and noticed that it wouldn't open. Then I tried google talk and force close. Noticed on agenda widget that all of my google calender info was gone and went into settings and there is no google account. I tried to add an account and goggle isn't an option. Tried to restart my phone and same thing. Bat pull and still same thing. Now I am late and I wont be free until tomorrow. What happened? Is anyone else experiencing this?

Gtalk is the bloodline of the google services for some reason.
If Gtalk gets jacked everything stops... Try clearing the data on g talk then reboot.

Contacts in AOKP

I have a lot of contacts synced with gmail, but most of them are emails and i don't need them in my phones contacts. How do i delete multiple contacts at once?
Sent from my SGH-T959V using xda app-developers app
Don't remember if you can do a batch select (I've only done it once and for the same reason) but you need to log in to gmail from a computer and edit the contracts from there. Also I believe in contacts settings you can set it to show only contacts with phone numbers.

Like eb says using a computer you can edit the contacts. What I would do is setup groups and only sync the various groups with phone numbers.
Thanks guys, but i tried something else. I installed go contacts ex and then did a batch delete of all the contacts i don't want

Wait, couldn't you just have go into options on your phone and choose to hide e-mails?

Don't have that option. And i have one more problem. How do i sync all my Facebook contacts. When i was on gb and installed Facebook, the first screen would all if i wanted to sync all my contacts, sync with existing contracts, or don't sync at all. But now i don't see and can't find that screen

This works well for syncing fb contacts. You can choose all contacts or existing in the settings https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ro.weednet.contactssync

Open app drawer select People, then menu contacts to display, customize. Select your facebook account and it will show a box for all contacts if that isnt checked then it is only syncing with existing contacts. If you select your gmail account you will have the option to sync all the groups individually.
It says no contacts. There's no way to get to that screen on the Facebook app that asks how youwant to sync the contracts?

Clear all data log out and uninstall the app. Reboot your phone re-install the app. If that doesnt bring the option up then its go forever.
Maybe?

Found this. I haven't tried it since I'm at work doing a 24 hr shift. Figured I would let people know what I found. I plan to give a try after I get some sleep. If anyone gives it a go could you please let us know how it goes?

Calendar

A search has not fully answered my question. After having to factory reset today, I noticed my calendar (I input from the phone itself) did not sync with google calendar and back things up. I lost prior three weeks and next two weeks of appts. After looking through settings of the calendar app and the phone itself and messing with it, it still doesn't sync. Is there something missing? I noticed some others in the search had similar problems, but couldn't tell if they were the same as mine or not. Thanks!
stupid question but under your Gmail account you have calendar set to sync right? What happens when you tap the sync icon, does it sync or error out?

Yes the calendar is set to sync, when I sync it says it does. But again, if I check google calendar elsewhere, it hasn't changed.
Make sure you have your google calendar selected when adding events. The phone has its own calendar as well as all your google candidates that you have permission to write with. Perhaps you were writing to the phone's calendar instead of your google one?

Thanks, yeah I unchecked every car account excpet my google calendar and it still doesn't sync. Will see if replacement devcie does the same.

Email behavior is wierd now

I have 4 email accounts and they all sync 'ed perfectly until this week. Something must have updated, but I cant figure out what. All accounts are POP. Twice, my Gmail and Yahoo email accounts marked 25 emails as Unread. They each are set to load 25 messages, I re-read them and they get set to "read" until I Sync then they get set back to "unread". I deleted the Yahoo email acct & recreated it, and that fixed it, until tonight when it happened again, my unread count is 50 again. I rebooted out of desperation, but I'm still at 50 unread emails. Any ideas?
I sold my iPad for the SGN which was the best techie decision I made in a long time-but that means my support network is not helpful anymore! If the answer to every question is "Buy a Mac/ IPad" I'm going to scream! <sorry for Venting>

Check your tablet email program settings. That's what was wrong when I had a similar issue.
Do you remember the setting you changed to resolve the problem when you had it? The settings on mine look ok and I haven't change anything for a while. Thx.

Updates change settings without meaning to. What client are you using?
The app info says "email 4.0". I looked at all the settings for both Yahoo and Gmail. Didn't see anything odd.
