[Q] Google Keyboard dictionary Sync? - Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

is anyone able to get the the google keyboard dictionary sync on s6? I can't seem to get it to choose which email to sync it with. (yes i have tried searching via google and the search thread here on xda).
please advise?

Hi mate,
I had the same issue. I did a lot of research on the web but I didn't find the source of the problem. However, if found a way that fixed it (at least for me). Try switching on/off the sync for a couple of times in a row without exiting the menu. After around 5 on/off cycles, a new windows appeared on my S6, informing me that google keyboard will save inputs and so on... after that, I could pick my @gmail account and set it up for sync.
Hope this helps.
All the best!

Problems with Activesync!

Hi...to some of the more experienced hands out there. I have a problem with Microsoft Active sync 4.5.
I introduced new categories for my contacts in Outlook 2007. these copied fine, but what happens is...i get an error message saying synchronization cannot be completed. at this time, when i sync using the active sync application on my vox, it works and synchronises fine....all this after i disabled advanced network functionality.
the above process takes nearly 10mins! that too, after i manually press the sync button on my mobile! is there any way to solve this problem?
also, i wish to know if there is anyway one can add more fields to the phones contact book. i added and entered data in new fields in outlook 2007, but this wasnt transmitted to my mobile.......we have useless entries like pager, radio ( what the hell is that!! ) and so on, but not a single place where one can enter an extra mobile no. for instance!!!
can any one help? tried a lot of fora, but no one seems to have any proper solution for this one!
a new challenge for xda developers forum! thanx in advance, its maddening doing this sync manually every bloody time!
Try deleting the device from activesync while device is disconnected and then adding it again by reconnecting.
Tried but no result!
thank u but i tried all the obvious solutions.....else i wouldnt have started this post. all this works only with advanced network functionality off, mind u, and it takes ages!

HTC Sense Twitter Tab (HTC Peep)

Hello everyone,
So far I have seen many people having off and on trouble with HTC Peep (Twitter tab in HTC Sense).
I wanted to create this to gather all the information and list a few different fixes that have worked for some people.
Specifically we are getting:
"There was a connection error while attempting to download tweets"
or
Issues actually entering the username and password.
Fixes so far:
Trying on only WiFi/3G (some people have it working on one and not the other)
Hard Reset (but sometimes only works for a couple of 'syncs')
Removing the login information from the registry
Making sure the Location settings are set
Using Dutty's 'Remove My Location' Tool
What have other people tried to get this working?
I found that using Dutty's tool worked, then it only worked on WiFi and now nothing again!

So setting the time correctly... can anyone define this? Syncing time with some server? I mean it's set to be the same as my PC time which syncs to time severs.

just need to adjust the time to the current time..and it will allows u to login without any problem.this way works for me.u can have a try on this.
It's making me mad! I have the latest dutty ROM (for topaz), tryed with other roms. It just says the same: error while connecting or after i login with wi-fi and then try with data connection it says network unavailable.
I installed duttys disable my location feature. Nothing...
Where in the registry are stored the login credetials an other settings? Do you have any idea what to try?
I tried to set up the clock correctly. It is correct (correct after what clock? ). Still nothing...
I found using the new EnergyROM on my Touch Pro2 works great. The Twitter engine was fixed up in the latest versions, works all the time now on 3G and WiFi.
I'm already using the latest version of manila 2.5 (19202525) but it just doesn't work. Did you do anything special? Like enabling my location or something...
I'm getting the same problem here on my HTC Topaz. Peep only connects through Wi-Fi and not through 3G. Is there a solution?
Kind regards,
Sander
I had the same problem.
I went under settings in manila and then Data services. Select the time sync one and turn off the Allow to use network value to update time.
Twitter was working and I turned the above on and twitter stops?
Anyhow the above worked for me. good luck
Background
Is it just me or is the TAB almost useless as the TEXT BOX for writing new PEEPS has black background? And when writing the text is blue so it almost impossible to see what you write....
Does any know of a solution?
I hope anyone can help me with the problems i am having with HTC Peep,
Some of the time it works fine while updating. other times i get a connection error.. but thats not the worst problem. i was wondering if anyone could help me find a register setting or tweak that would set a maximum limit to the amount of tweets in htc peep, the ammount of errors and loading time of the tab seems to increase when the ammount of tweets become more and more. for now the only solution i have found to speed it up again is hard reset and i dont like that if anyone could help me i would be really greatfull!

I've Already Fixed it...
Solved the problem...
Uncheck the Data services of twitter...
and then, check your Date and Time...
i tried to check the date is "My Locations" *i'm not input my city...
after that, i choose 12-Hours Time,Not 24-Hours Time...
i don't know which one the correct one...
but i changes that, after that my HTC PEEP came NORMALLY again....
to those of you who are still getting this error. mine error's where fixed after removing all of the auto disconnect data apps.. like wmlonglife
Have finally ditched Peep in favour of PockeTwit...
Today was the last straw. I had just installed a new Storage Card. Whether the problems with Peep stem from this or this was just coincidental I dont know.
It had been working fine for a month or so, until today.
But this is not the first time Peep has stopped working.
It gives me a combination of error connecting and incorrect username or password consistently.
In the past I was able to get it working by logging in with a new twitter account. Not this time though.
I have also tried:
- deleting all registry account settings for twitter - even deleted the registry keys in desperation and re-imported them.
- renewing the connection database.
- Checking the location and time settings.
All to no avail.
PockeTwit works perfectly - all the time, every time.
So I have removed the Peep Tab from the Sense UI until an update or new ROM comes out fixing the silly thing....
Life is too short to stuff around with this sort of bad programming.
There are too many tabs the sense UI in any case.
HTC Twitter login problem - what worked for me
I have a Sprint Rhodium with WM.6.5. My twitter tab kept giving me an incorrect login info message, even after several soft resets. I changed my password online, removed Twitter home tab, then replaced it after a soft reset. I was then able to login. I was very relieved I didn't have to hard reset or try registry changes.
I hope this works for someone else!
HTC Peep "All Tweets" Tab
Hello all,
I was wondering if anyone has been having the following problem with HTC Peep. IT loads fine, in the first screen I can read all my latest tweets. However, when I want to reply or press "All Tweets" the app goes to the next page and then freezes. This sometimes causes the whole telephone to hang and requires a soft reset. If I'm quick enough, then I can get out of the "All Tweets" screen and recover back to Sense.
Does this sound familiar to anyone? Perhaps I just need to hard reset? Who can give me any handy tips? Thanks in advance!
The solution
Just put your proxyserver off, and Twitter wil work again.
"All Tweets" direct link?
Hi,
I am searching mad for o way to direct link the "All Tweets" button from a shortcut. So far i figured out that "All Tweets" is a manila subpage so the link should look like
"\windows\manila.exe --switchtopage twitter.page.something".
Can someone help me make this work?
I started having a problem with my twitter on my HD2. When i try to update, an error message comes up saying " The account was forbidden to access the twitter server!?". Has anyone had this problem before?

Gmail Syncing issue?

I just noticed that I hadn't gotten any emails in a while on my N1. So I checked Gmail on my computer and it showed 5 new emails that I hadn't seen. Digging a little deeper, I found that the gmail app on my phone hasn't successfully synced in the last 24 hours and I also can't access any past emails other than those that are already shown in my inbox(it won't load any that aren't already on the phone, gives a "Network Issue" error). What's even more strange is everything else on the phone works perfectly and even the number of new emails is updated in the gmail app, it just won't download the emails themselves. Is anyone else having these problems?
I just checked mine and it is up to date. In fact, I am usually getting a notification of gmail on my N1 before it shows up on gmail web site or indicated by Gtalk.
Hopefully, your issue is temporary and the 'network issue' will go away.
....and fixed. I still have no idea what was going wrong but going into the manage applications settings menu and clearing the data on gmail and gmail storage fixed it. Hopefully this issue doesn't get too widespread, cause no non-tech savvy person would ever be able to figure that out.
Alright, it turns out this is a really big freaking deal(as far as I can test it anyway). Any time I try to attach pictures to an email and send it, it causes this. And there's no way to undo it that I can find other than manually clearing the data in Gmail Storage.
...And from looking at the logcat, It gets a file not found exception when trying to load the attachment. I'm using a fresh picture taken from the camera to test it so this looks like a pretty big bug. I'll poke around a bit more though.
After a bit more testing, this only happens pictures taken from the camera for some reason. Can anyone else confirm that this happens for them too?
Alright, I think I got this(at least partway) figured out. It wasn't all pictures but just a couple specific ones. For some reason, there are some pictures that I took yesterday with my Nexus One that didn't actually get saved anywhere(I'm not sure how it even knows they exist, or where it's finding the image). The image I was trying was one of those, but trying another one that did get saved worked perfectly. So I guess this is less an issue with gmail and more an issue with the camera not always saving pictures correctly. Gmail just completely chokes when you attach a file that doesn't actually exist.
Hmmm...
My gmail hadnt synced for several hours today.
Rebooted..seems ok now.
I did actually send an attachement from a note pad application to myself last night.
No idea what the correlation is if any.
Not sure if anyone has noticed this, but if you are actively logged in to gmail (say, from a desktop) while accessing your gmail on your phone, the results are somewhat wonky and unpredictable.
I've seen this issue on my G1 and it continues on my N1.
I experinced this issue also. The issue seemed to exist across reboots. For some reason I was convinced that the issue had something to do with facebook syncing. I deleted that account and the problem went away. But know that I think about it, I did try emailing a picture that I had just taken right before I noticed the problem(emailed straight from the camera app), and I know that email did not go through. Hmm, definitely sounds like a bug somewhere.

Me too. I noticed same in G1 and now on Nexus while all time logged-in Gmail using Mozilla on desktop while at work. Totally unpredictable many time I see first on desktop and then later (some times way later) on G1 and Nexus.

I've been having sync issues too. I don't really do much with email, mostly receiving and I find myself having to refresh manually, all the time. It has been about 3-4 days or so. It worked perfectly at first...
Here was my problem: check settings and then the sync menu. It says something & sync. My auto sync was unchecked. Working great now!
Been having sync issues, posting in a thread about it over on the google support boards. Not major to me, just annoying and hope it gets resolved.
Thank you so much for the detailed responses about this Marcus. I thought I had messed up gmail with my theme, but then I read this thread and remembered that I had tried to send a picture through gmail immediantly after taking it, and after clearing data for gmail and gmail storage, it worked again.
So again, thank you, that is one less bug I have to deal with my theme causing.
I've had this issue when trying to email "large" (over 2MB'ish, as a rough guess) files.

[Q] Gmail push email & Google Calendar sync stops working

Dear All,
I do apologize for starting a new thread on this topic (I know others have been berated for doing similar) but I have searched and not found anything that addresses the issue that I am having.
My Gmail app keeps dropping its push email function. Manual refresh works but not push. I can get it working again by clearing the Gmail app data and re-setting up all the Gmail settings (signature, notification, etc.) and all works well. However it only lasts for between a few hours to a couple of days before it stops working again and I have to repeat the process to get it working again.
Sending email, and my wife's Nexus S works fine. I have also just noticed (but not investigated it) but the Calendar does not seem to be automatically syncing either even though auto syncing is enabled.
Has anyone else experienced this problem and found a cure?
I also noticed similar Gmail sync issue yesterday. I tried all means but not successul till now. Hope someone comes up with a solution.
Oh, yesterday I got this error message couple of times " Google services framework force close or something like that". I rebooted the phone, and that error went away but not sure if that's the reason for my push email not working well.
Did you ever come with a solution to this? I've found it to be quite annoying.
This claims to be a solution: http://www.nexusoneforum.net/forum/...-gmail-app-has-stopped-syncing.html#post94541
It's written as though it's for situations that it started happening pre-empted by adding additional accounts though. I've only got 1 account and it's tending to happen every 2 or 3 days.
I have not found a "solution" - just a work around. What I have found is that when I do a full Google account sync (Settings/Accounts & sync/[Google account]/Menu button/Sync) it forces a sync of my entire Google account but then kicks my push email into life again for a couple of days without needing to wipe my Gmail app data.
I've just got into the habit of doing this every morning when I get into the office. I took a vacation a few weeks ago and forgot to do it for a couple of days and lo-and-behold my emails stopped coming through, so nothing's changed.

Well that's a better workaround than having to clear data all the time at least.
Thanks!
Has anyone found a solution to this one.
I am having the same issue on an HTC Sensation with GMAIL android app. Basically it works for about 2 days and I receive an email exactly as I receive it but then after some days it stops working.
What I normally have to do i switch off all Sync and then switch it on again and it restarts everything but this is not the ideal thing.
I had this problem before. The only way I found to fix it is to remove the google account from the phone and add it again. Also if you disable the Google account from the Account & Sync Settings and enable it again will fix the issue. I didn't have this problem again but not sure if was actualy fixed from the above steps.
Hi
I did what was said in post and now I am getting replies but I am afraid that this will stop after some time....
In the end for me I had to do a factory reset, the little workarounds weren't sticking.

Can't use Google Now Reminders?

So I've been playing around with my nexus 5 and overall I'm pleased so far, however whenever I try to add reminders via Google Now, I keep getting the message "can't reach Google at the moment" (see screenshot)
This happens on WiFi and mobile data and have rebooted the phone to check if that may solve it (never know...).
I can add reminders via Google Keep however being able to add reminders directly from the home screen simply by talking is so much easier than adding them via Keep.
I've tried looking through the Google product forums however the content never seems to load on the page.
Anyone know if the reminders issue is a common bug or if there's a fix available for this?

You need to open the keep app first, so it signs in to your account.

I'm guessing people having problems with this are using a Google Apps account?
I have exactly the same issue with my gapps account but when using a standard gmail account all works as it should.
As mentioned, I think this is a wider issue, affecting SOME gapps accounts when used in conjunction with the N5. I say some as I have had a friend set up a test account for me in his gapps and it also worked perfectly.
I have spent hours going through my settings but have so far drawn a blank.
If anyone knows what is causing this, please share!
This happens to me, but it ONLY happens on wifi. As soon as I switch to mobile it works again.

You using gapps or standard gmail?
Only solution for me is to use my non gapps account for Google Now.

I had this issue when I first got this phone about 2 days ago. I just tried to set a reminder on wifi and it worked for me. The only thing that has really changed are just apps and a few reboots, maybe the reboots did it? I honestly tried it out of the box and my service kept disconnecting, after that reboot all my issues were fixed. Doubt thatll fix the issue for you but who knows lol. I am also rooted, if that makesa difference
No amount of rebooting or even resetting to stock has cured this for me. I think it's server side - something to do with how the N5 talks to gapps servers. Only some though as I've tested it successfully with a friend's account. Odd.

I'm using a gapps account. Guessing by the responses it's something to do with this then. Ah well, will sit back and wait for ol' googs to trickle it down to gapps users then.
Not necessarily, it works with some gapps accounts and not others. Doesn't work with mine but had a friend set up an account for me on his and it worked perfectly. Its a very odd problem.

I'm on a Google Apps account too. Tried adding a second account from the same domain and that wouldn't work, but added a straight gmail account and it was fine. Very frustrating! I can't see anything obvious in the apps dashboard that migth be causing it.
tried Adding and Removing all my Google accounts but no luck through that method either.
Hi !
Undigging a very old thread, but I have the very same problem : I can't add a Google Now reminder with my GApps account, "can't reach Google at the moment".
I created a dummy Google account and it worked without any problem, instantly.
This thread is one year old, and I have been using Google Now reminders for a very long time without any problem. This bug just appeared some days ago. So what has happened to my GApps account ?
Has anyone here been able to fix this issue?
Thanks !
I'm having the same issue as well. Lollipop Nexus 4.
I find it very weird that this issue seems to have been going on for so long, without one definitive fix appearing. It started for me yesterday; I don't know if it's coincidence, but I fired up an old phone linked to the same gmail account in order to wipe it prior to selling on ebay. Then soon after doing that, I tried to set a voice reminder on my Nexus 5, and I got this error. I have never had a single problem before, but now I get the problem irrespective of whether I'm connected via wifi or 3g, at home or at work. Normal gmail account.
Tried turning Google Now cards off and back on again, tried clearing some related caches, tried signing out and back in to the google account.
Anybody got any suggestions.

Yep, I have one.
My problem was solved by setting my search domain to google.com.
I am in Belgium, and the default search domain for the Google App is the local one (google.be). Changing this setting in the google app worked like a charm. Of course, I don't have localized search results anymore though.
This setting is located in the Google app, under Settings > Accounts & Privacy > Search on google.com

Damn, you had my hopes up, but it didn't work for me; I changed the setting from local domain (google uk in my case) to google.com, no joy. Thanks for the reply though.
Maybe it's a clue, others have also suggested changing the search language to English (US) worked for them, it does point to certain areas of functionality as the cause.

Yes, in my case the problem is a combination of using a Google Apps account (with my own domain), and using a google.be domain for searches.
It seems that there are a lot of different problems that end up with the same error message. For some people, as you mentionned, just turning off Google Now then on again simply fixed it.
I'll be in France in some days, I'll try to witch back to using the local search domain (i.e. google.fr), and see how it goes. My Google Apps domain is a ".fr" domain, so there might be something to investigate here.
