Google photos problem - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi all,
When I try to turn my backup on for Google photo's there is no account to select when I turn it on so it currently isn't backing up.
I've cleared the cache and data for the app and still not working so am wondering if anyone has had the same issue and managed to resolve it?
Thanks in advance

Email exchange issues

Hi all,
Just got the nexus 5 and live everything about it except one thing, the email app. I can't tell if it's exchange services or the app itself, but "unfortunately email has stopped" keeps popping up randomly and will not stop. Another wrote thing is that the so manager will not let me wipe data (screenshot). Things I tried:
*rebooting
*deleting the apk through titanium, wiping data and reinstalling
Any ideas? I really need exchange email for work and it's driving me crazy.

Seems you screwed up something with titanium so do a factory reset and flash back to stock and test it out then and see if it all works fine. After that then do some changes slowly to see if it comes back again to narrow it down?
I have this problem with my Nexus 5 as well. It's been this way since I got it. Really, really annoying. This has been an ongoing problem for a while. I wish there was a fix....

I just wiped, flashed factory image and factory reset the phone and still getting these crashes and it is still not letting me wipe data from the app manager...
Any other suggestions? Right now, I'm going to try to delete the exchange accounts but it's not even letting me delete accounts!! I'm going to try to switch to ART to see if that helps at all, and will give an update.
Any other email clients for android that support exchange?? I'm lost at this point and I really tried everything I know before posting.

This is total stock? As if factory image?
I don't think there's much you can do to fix the problem. There are a lot of people in the same boat. If you search Google, there are several posts about the same issue. Last time I checked, there's no fix.

Yeah, factory image and it still didn't work.
I just ended up flashing twrp and cataclysm ROM and that fixed it.

I'm using Touchdown (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.nitrodesk.droid20.nitroid) from Nitrodesk.
Works perfect for my needs
Had battery drain issues with the stock exchange app, so I switched to Touchdown
Hope this helps for you as well
EDIT:
Just read your later post that you switched ROM
cheers
I m experiencing another issue..!!
I get couldnt sign-in error!!
Any solutions for this!!
Dont frget to press the THANK button!!!
Just an update, the new ROM solution was working for a few hours but starting to have issues again with "unfortunately email app has stopped working" errors.
I think it has to be how my exchage accounts are setup:
- One gmail account on IMAP
- 3 Exchange accounts on push notifications and sync all mails
Outside of that setup, nothing special. Anyone experiencing the same?

One last update (unless it creeps up again). I switched the syncing of emails to date back 30 days instead of "All" and that fixed the "unfortunately email has stopped" messages completely. The HTC One email client never had that issue so I assumed that wasn't the problem but I guess the email client on this phone is a bit more sensitive.
Ok, the problem crept back up again... the error message keeps coming back, and in the app manager, the "clear data" button is greyed out so you can't even start over unless you remove all the accounts.
I would like to ask anyone that has working exchange accounts (multiple) on the native email client share their setup and the app versions etc.

Gmail help

So my problem lays with gmail not notifying me of new emails. No sound, no icon in status tray, nothing. I've uninstalled and reinstalled the app. I reinstalled the ROM multiple times. Once with restoring the data and the once without restoring data. I restored a backup. I even reverted back to stock. Nothing seems to allow me to get notification of new mail. When I open the app, it shows new mail but I am never notified. Please help.

I had this problem once. Make sure that gmail sync is on under the Google settings and make sure you have app data sync on also.

Both items are on. I'm pretty stumped on this. I haven't had this happen before. I get notification for everything else except gmail.

Can't connect p3110

Hi Everyone
My dad has a Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 7 (I think p3110) and he has had some lag issues. He is running stock Sammy 4.2.2. I suggested he factory reset his tablet. We did this by holding power and volume up. Wiped data /factory reset and then cache partition (it rebooted automatically). When up and running he logged into Google account but then when he opened play store it said it couldn't connect. The Internet browser would not connect. But he could send and receive emails through sock email app (!). We tried factory reset through settings app and have tried removing and readding Google account and also clearing Google services and play store caches. Nothing seems to work. Anyone any ideas please?
Have you configured your WLAN again? After factory reset you have to do this.

Problem solved. We went to my house and as soon as it connected to my wifi everything worked fine. Maybe an issue with my dad's router. Good news is that I convinced him to root his tablet!

Google device manager (URGENT)

Hi, I've lost my Nexus 5 in a taxi, now It's off, gps is off and data is off, I just want to know, If someone finds my phone, and restore it to stock, can I still see my phone in device manager for a period of time ? If someone delete my google account from the phone I won't see it again in device manager ? Thanks !
Factory reset will delete all data and accounts

Nope. Google device manager is technically pointless I'm afraid. Even if it's pin locked, someone can swipe down and disable data so it still wouldn't work. It's far too flawed
