[Q] Google calendar broken - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys,
I'm using Stock 5.0 on my Nexus 5 with root.
Just removed my aosp calendar app with root explorer.
I am using the goolge calendar from the playstore and don't need 2 apps on my phone.
Now there is the problem that my remaining calendar has no access to my google account (no calendar selectable in settings/accounts/google/xxx)
Do I have to flash the aosp calendar zip in recovery (where can I download it) or what should I do?

gmail not signed properly

Hello guys, I have just flashed a new ROM (UCALC4 sky ICS - seanscreamz). I am getting an error with gmail because when the ROM flashes, he has it inverted colorwise, and gives us the revert. I am not familiar with the android signing process, but I can no longer update gmail via the google play store for this reason. gmail does not show up in the installed applications list, only in the running processes and I have no way to delete it. I was wondering if anyone knew where it is located so that I can delete it and grab the fresh one from the play store.

Manually install Google Playstore?

I bought my Huawei G520 direct from China and forgot Chinese dont like Google so no Google apps!!!!!
I just want Google Playstore & G+ app installing
I managed to root my phone but not been able to flash anything (too complicated)
Anyway, after playing around for weeks I managed to install Google manually by using Root Explorer & adding:
OneTime Initializer.apk
GoogleLoginService.apk
Google Services Framework.apk
Setup Wizard.apk
Gmail.apk
directly into my root\systems\apps folder
Restart my phone - login to Gmail & voila - totally googled and able to install any/all other google apps normally e.g.
Google playstore (sometimes called Phonesky.apk)
G+
ContactSyncAdaptor
CalendarSyncAdaptor
Chrome
Play movies
Google music
Anyway - I done this few times previously without issue - but recently messed up my camera and tried it again and it fails:
Same as always - reset my phone - rooted - Used Root Explorer and added:
OneTime Initializer.apk
GoogleLoginService.apk
Google Services Framework.apk
Setup Wizard.apk
Gmail.apk
directly into root\systems\apps folder
...and this is where it seems to fail - reboot the phone and get "Gmail has stopped working" and cant login
this has never been a problem before
Anybody make sense of this stuff and how I'm going to get Google apps (namely Playstore & G+) working on my Chinese mobile?
Is just 'copying' an apk file to system enough or should i still run them? - dunno - used to work fine - now it doesn't

[Q] no "Exchange" option in my stock email app (4.4.2) unlocked GSM version

Dear all:
I need to use exchange to sync with my company's calendar.
I have noticed that other Nexus 5 has an "Exchange" option when one goes to Setting --> Accounts --> Add an Account --> Corporate
illustrated by this link:
http://support.sprint.com/support/tutorial/Set_up_Exchange_email_Google_Nexus_5/50282-118
(page 4 out of 8)
But my Nexus 5, which is also a stock ROM with no modification, doesn't even have this "Exchange option"
(see attached)
I desperately need that exchange option. How to get it? Is there an stock email app that I can download / flash?
My phone is rooted with no custom recovery installed. Can I get away without a custom recovery?
Thanks in advance
Harv
Do you have tibu and did you freeze or delete exchange services? You should have an exchange option. I'm on stock, rooted too and have no problems.

[Resolved] [Q] How to add more than one Google Account? Add Google account option not in System

Hello,
I recently obtained a Huawei Honor 3C H30-U10 with International ROM. In this ROM the Google App Store comes pre-installed installed. When opening the Google App store I am asked to enter a new or exsisting Google Account. So far everything works fine. But I have two separate Google Accounts which I want to use. It is not possible to add an additional Google account through Settings > Add Account > Google Account. In this menu the option is missing.
Some references on internet say that it is due to a wrongly installed Google Apps, so I have unlocked the bootloader, added custom recovery and tried to flash gapps-kk-20140606-signed.zip from Goo.im but this does not work because I get a message that Gapps is already installed and that this package is signed differently.
I tried deinstalling the original google apps. Although some form of root and SU is pre-installed, the Phone will not let me de-install original Gapps because they are system files.
Phone specs:
Huawei Honor 3C H30-U10
Android version 4.4.2
Build number EMUI2.3_H30-U10_9.7.1
Any clues?
Regards,
Zollthar

You Cannot add any account or just google account?
So you're saying there is no Google account option when you try to add an account, after setting up a primary google account?
Correctly. There is no option to add another Google account when the primary account is added.
I found a work-around by installing google+ app. In this app there is an option to add another account. When I add an alternate account in Google+, the account is added to the list at Settings>Accounts, but at that location it is still not possible to add an account at that location. Strange, isn't it?
To be fair: the primary account is also not installed by using the 'add account' option, but it is triggered when first setting up the phone.
Although resolved by means of a work around I am still wondering how this situation is possible. So if anyone has a fair view on this, I would like to hear their opinion. For now I am changing the subject to "resolved".

Why not stay with the HiApp method? Just install Google play and then uninstall HiApp.

i did a factory reset but the problem is still there.
what could i have done wrong installing gmail from HiApp?
-after factory reset the first thing i did was giving full permissions to all apps, disable battery savers, autostart them, etc.
-thene installed only gmail (no other software all settings stock)
-give full permission to gmail
-no notification from gmail. whatsapp, etc are working
is the gmail-APP in HiApp a modified version for huawei phones or is it the same like in google playstore?
i installed b211 update from b209 whene it was in beta stage. maybe this is the problem? (i think the version b211 are all the same?)
Can't tell if the Gmail from HiApp is any different. Before I installed anything, I first updated from B028 (which was a forced install) to B029. Then installed Gmail, WhatsApp and so on. Never disabled anything globally, only gave permission to apps like Gmail and WhatsApp, like start on boot etc. I also lock them from being closed (by pulling them down in the running apps overview when you press the rectangle).
