Hi All,
Yesterday night, my phone got switched off due to battery drain. When I switched it on again, I see that the "Phone Contacts- LG PC suite contacts" are no longer visible. I tried changing the display options but to no avail. I also noticed that the "Contacts Storage" app that is installed by default has considerably reduced in size. Does this mean that the "Contacts Storage" app has lost the contacts data? Is there any way to recover the contacts? I have no backups of this app. Any alternatives?
turn on sync for your account if you use this, and after that phone numbers shoud appear back, make a save/export to sd card for your contacts

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.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
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...
My Mate 9 is a set from Singapore telco and used in Singapore, so it had Google Play Store included.
Google Contacts sync worked fine for the first 1 year of use, never had to worry about it, it just worked in the background.
Then I noticed things were not quite right. (I sometimes add/edit contacts thru the phone, and sometimes I add/edit them thru my desktop browser via Gmail > Contacts.)
I noticed that if I manually did sync now, it would spin for about half minute, and the Last Synced time would update, as though successful, even though there was no effect. Changes did not go either way.
After Googling, I did these steps:
Main Settings > Apps.
three dots to show system apps
find "Contacts Storage" then "storage", then "clear app data".
This resulted in empty Contacts book. No change after repeated "sync now".
After a phone restart, the sync kind of worked, and I had Contacts in my phone populated again.
But I noticed now that changes are only going one-way, Add/Edit/Deletions do go from Google to phone, but changes do not go from phone to Google.
Do you think I should try removing the Google Account from the phone and re-adding it?
UPDATE: Without other changes, a few days later, I noticed that 2-way sync was working, although the sync latency seems longer than expected. In 2016, 2017, I was used to seeing a contact appear on my Whatsapp within 10 seconds of adding into Google Contacts via desktop browser. But now, it might take many minutes? hours?
OK, my HTC M8s (stock ROM, no recent flashing mods) has been playing up lately, seemingly just battery issues.
Today however it rebooted, and it's just lost its sh*t. Apps that were moved to the SD card are now lost/not showing up, my call history is blank (but contacts, photo's and other data are OK), and apps that were seemingly all up to date have suddenly decided they need updating again - these are not new apps either, they're like old HTC apps that were not even in use, and I doubt have all suddenly been updated.
It looks to me like some "cache" or storage area on the phone has been zapped, and reset to like a new phone. But my data seems (mostly) to be there, and apps that I installed (to main memory) are OK too, although their settings seem to have gone too (eg: one banking app is asking to re-verify setup info)
I just re-downloaded an app that was missing, to get it back again. The app installed OK. Upon checking the app settings however, it had located it again on the SD card (I did not do this, it somehow "remembered" where it supposed to be from earlier), but the settings and data of the app were not restored/visible.
Google settings too, like Play Store preferences (don't put apps on home screen) have also been lost and app permissions seem to have also been reset (eg: mail needed me to allow access to this and that again)
Anyone else had this?! Any ways to fix it? Seems very freaky and worrying...
Hey Guys,
So this morning when i started using my phone and wanted to add a contact from whatsapp the phone started lagging, and the said there is no app open this contact.
Finding it weird i tried opened the stock contacts app on my phone, and it was just a white screen and then the app crashed, I tried opening the dialer (phone) that was totally blank none of my previous call logs seen.
Then i tried switching off the phone and restarting, same issue no change, then going back to whatsapp all my contacts vanished and are only seen as the actual phone numbers.
Things ive tried:
I tried clearning cache and data of the contacts App
I dont have G+ installed
Went to google account and checked contacts sync, no issues there
but i'm not able to even add a contact or view them at all.
Please help
Phone: Vivo U10
Age: barely 10 months (new phone)
Today after so many days finally i got miui 12.0.3 and i updated. Everything was good except when I thought to call my gf. Dafuq. The entire call log was filled with plain numbers instead of Names and that was really distressing. I checked the contacts, the numbers were there but the same would not be reflected in call logs. I tried every trick in the book but before clearing data of Phone (contacts and dialer) app I thought to take a backup of my contacts but when i went to settings and pressed export Dafuq again, the app showed that no memory card found. Now this is really strange because earlier it didnt ask for it. I tried using another f1 at home (unupdated) and it didn't have this problem. So now i started thinking out of the box. I downloaded mi contacts and dialer 12.2.2.1 from apkmirror and installed it. Now the sdcard error was gone but yet it didnt show my call logs. Now i exported all contacts to device. Cleared the data of Phone (contacts and dialer) app and then imported the backup. The importing took around 20 mins and then everything was back to normal. Hope this helps somebody.
Thank u
Simple and 1000000% working way(i talked to a MI executive for this)
1. If you have already cleared data and cannot see anything on the dialer app(just black screen) then restart your device. Then you would be able to see everything.
2. Then go to contacts and tap on 3 dots on top right and open settings.
3. Go to 'more' option and select Rebuild Index Data
Note- Rebuilding will take a lot of time depending on how much contacts you have. Mine took 15-20minutes for 2000 contacts soo have patience.
Done
