Google account auto sync does not work

Hi all,
I have Huawei Honor 6 plus PE-TL10 from China (not rooted, stock recovery, ROM ends with B150).
I have installed Google Play Store from APK (just move APK to phone and install it as usual) and added my google account through dialog when you opening Google Play Store first time.
Ok. My google account was added, then I have to add GoogleContactsSync and GoogleCalendarSync to sync my contacts and calendar
In my settings I can see all of my google things to synchronization, please see attachments.
I have auto sync option turn on (corporate account is working properly).
I tried to readd google account, clear cache of Gmail application, Google Services Framework, Google Play Store and restart.
I tried clear cache partition from recovery (stock recovery).
BUT, I can't get gmail auto sync - I have to click button "Sync now" and then I get new mails and notification, etc. But it is not done automatically.
Any ideas, how to fix this?
Should I root the phone and flash Gapps throught recovery?
Is here somebody who has this working on Honor 6+ without rooting?
The weird thing is, that I am not able to install Google apps as it is on the video on youtube when you search "How to Install Google Play Store to Huaweir Honor 6 Plus" - sorry, can't add external links yet, when I try to search for "google" in Huawei AppCenter I can't see for example "Google Play Services" in the result list.
Thanks,
Jakub

autosync under shortcuts (slide down status bar)

Enabled from the beginning of time Thanks for the advice, but this is not solution. As I wrote e.g. company mail works fine in the default email application with auto sync.

I would root and flash gapps via recocery

Install 2 app:

** = tt

as in my first post ... installed Thanks for your reply, but also without success.
I will have to flash it via recovery ... I am just waiting for the code to unlock my bootloader http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=60155167&postcount=187

I solved it by doing factory reset and install GoogleCalendarSync.apk and GoogleContactsSync.apk before installing Gmail app, now all auto sync options works fine.

Google Sync

Does anyone know how to make Google Sync work? I've installed Google calendar sync and Google Contact but when I go to accounts and choose Google, there is no entry for either.

Follow the steps here exactly as mentioned without skipping anything :
1) Factory reset your phone
2) After reset,
Download contact for android 6 apk
Then download contact sync APK for android 6
DO NOT LAUNCH OR EXECUTE any of them for now ...
Go to phone manager, go to permission manager and in CONTACT, let CONTACT app and CONTACT SYNC ALWAYS allow to change the contacts. It is by default on notify ...
Then, launch contacts app, introduce your login and password from google and it will sync all your contacts. AFTER that, you can download play store, google agenda etc ... You can find all apk i have mentioned on apkmirror
Then all will work perfectly with your chinese mate 8

Dear maly,
Is contacts apk really nessecary? The native contacts won't work? As there will be 2 contact apps in the end.
Is there a calendar sync app nessecary to synconize Google calendar with the one built into EMIU?

Don't know exactly what I did. I went to Settings > Permissions Manager > Applications and turned on "Trust this application" for Google Calendar Sync and Google Contacts Sync. I am using a different calendar other than Google's. Didn't have to reset the phone.

Hi there,
Thank you for your guide.
I did try exactly as you said, but it doesn't work none the less. After factory reset, and adding Contacts and Contacts Sync, there isn't any Google account (just an Exchange account option) that can be paired to it, as there is no Google Account that can be added, sadly.
Will now try to install Google Play and hope that it will create an account that can be paired to the Contacts app.
***EDIT***
Fixed! Installing Google Play did the trick.
Regards,

Outdated google play installed with accounts manager

Hi,
So i was searching for methods to atleast help me login to some apps including taking a backup of my whatsapp chats to google drive.
I came across this :
Run snapchat without google services and without rooting
(1) Download and install snapchat from www.mediafire.com/download/00hbnrp11bmq6jk/Snapchat_9.7.2.0.apk (can download latest version from other places too but i have tested on this version)
(2)download google framework from https://sourceforge.net/projects/se...2.A.0.42/GoogleServicesFramework.apk/download
(3)download google Account Manager from www.mediafire.com/download/lho1jmw49k1gpqq/Google+Account+Manager_4.4.2-940549.apk
(4) download google play services from www.mediafire.com/download/ounh79r7av7da71/Google+Play+services_7.3.29+(1866531-036).apk
(5) Now install first google firmware than google manager and in the end google play service
(6) Restart your mobile (note your mobile may give error that google play service stopped ignore that and click cancel)
(7) now download and install google play store from www.mediafire.com/download/n2z2smxttttt7m7/Google+Play+Store_5.4.12.apk
(8) open playstore and login your account than close play store
(7) Now open snapchat and login your account you would be loged in but app will stop working
(8) After that go to application manager in your mobile and delete google play service, google playstore and google firmware
(9) Run snapchat and you are done
(10) Update your snapchat from any market you use after that if you want
Tested on Nokia X X2 and XL.
After following all this with exactly the same apk's i could manage to login to a gmail ID on the phone via the google accounts manager but every time i open an app that needs services, it would ask me to update the google play services.
So experimentally i updated the play store and services apk's and snapchat still refused to let me login but a different error this time(I feel it comes under their "against tweak" parameters.
Also whatsapp detects the google account but goes on forever authenticating the account, so im sure there is an issue communicating with google serves here.
Let me know if this thread makes any sense, or else it can be deleted. Thanks.

I tried it too. It didn't with for me. Would you mind adding the exact link to where u say it?

here, but i doubt as much as we try, it wont work, because theres something related to tencent thats blocking google play services from communicating or even running because it keeps crashing.

Google play
Hi . I have Nokia 6 TA-1000 google play dont work. Please anybody help me ,what can i doing

Using a Nubia X without GApps

What are the possible replacements for google services?
Aptoide/Yalp store as replacement for play store?
If it works, I guess installing youtube, maps, etc. from either store should work? Or not?
Or we can find alternative apps thatbwork like youtube, gmaps, etc. anyway
How about retrieving contacts saved in google account? Can i retrieve them using browser logged in my google account? How to import into phone?
Users of Apps/games that require google login like pubg should use alternative logins now. Will it work?
What are the all the requirements for degooglefied phone like nubia x?

Hi,
I'm using one phone like that, until some solution for the google services is found.
It's a bit uncomfortable, but it's working. In anther one post I have uploaded a picture how it looks like.
Here is the answers of your questions:

YouTube app generally working, but closes when cant find the google services. Anyway I'm watching the videos from the browser.
Maps - you can install Chrome and then pin it to the home screen. Works like charm.
You can install Mesanger, WatsApp, Viber, Skype - they work.

With PUBG I had some issues installing it because except the apk has obb, may be I'll try later when I have some time. Fortnite is working like charm. Even with the back screen two additional buttons is like a cheat.
Things which I could not solve until now:
- Outlook cant import o365 mail hosted by GoDaddy.
- It seems that, a lot of applications rely on google services for the push notifications. If the app (let say Viber) is not running, you may not have popup notification on the lock screen. (If anyone knows how to solve that I'll be happy)
So, that's all. At the end you can live with the phone. I'm happy with it.
I hope that answers your question. If you have other questions - let me know

How about updating/syncing contacts? I mean after retrieving them and i added a new contact entry. How do i update/sync that contact into google?
And for photos? Do i have to manually backup to pc or cloud since there's no google photos and no google drive?
Any other concerns i might have forgotten?
Edit:
Link to this thread you mentioned?

I used aptoide - the only google apps that seems to work is Google Chrome Browser and gmaps. youtube did not work through aptoide as didn't all the other google apps i tried. I placed a youtube home page using the chrome broswer on the desktop. Whatsapp apk i downloaded from their official website and installed working fine. When I downloaded whatsapp through aptoide and the chinese market app it won't work and keeps saying date and time is not right even though it is - maybe because its not chinese date and time?
For Contacts i opened my pc with chrome broswer and downloaded the contacts VCARD which you can do and placed in root folder of Nubia X - picked all my contacts up - I'm not sure how to sync though to google accounts as you cant add a google account through the phone unless you root as per other posts.
Pretty silly how they just didn't let you install gapps without root - i buy a lot of chinese phones and its the standard now even if google isnt preinstalled - its been a long time since I've seen a phone that doesn't let you install gapps yourself if you want too even though they dont support it. I'm finding it hard to use the phone and it will probably end up in a drawer for a few months until the international rom is released with google. Its annoying, even switching the phone off the voice assistant starts in Chinese and i want to get rid of this.
I've deleted practically all the bloatware, yet can't get music player to detect music i placed in the music folder.
Should have done my reading before hand but oh well... I got it for less than £495 from geekbuying 128gb version but should have waited out for the international rom version
Most of my good apps I downloaded through the Amazon App Store which is also working so I have 3 markets on my phone at the moment.

Question [SOLVED] Motorola Edge S Google Contacts Sync Issue

Disclaimer: I do not intend to root/flash to a different ROM and will remain using China ROM.
Hi guys, I hope someone can help me with this issue. I already installed Google Play services and basically all Google apps via Play Store.
My issue is with Google Contacts as it seems the phone will not let me sync. My existing contacts do not appear due to sync issue.
If I go to Settings > Google Contacts Sync > then enable Automatically Sync, once I press back button, the phone will disable sync.
I already did the "usual" troubleshooting steps like restart your phone, kill the app and whatnot but this issue still persists.
Anybody knows how to fix this issue?
TIA.

Hi,
i facing this issue last month and solved it right now, i installed old apk google contact ( i will check it what version )
is there contact sync option under account google ?
you can check in settings->accounts->Google

The contacts sync option is available but the phone keeps "disabling" everytime I enable contacts sync (check my screenshot).
I'm kinda frustrated that I want to reset my phone and start from scratch just in case Google Play services got messed up.

I mean you can check in setting --- account --- your googgle account --- account sync
Are that option contacts sync option ?

I already found old apk google contact, you can try instal this, dont forget to disable smart background for aplication contact

YOU ARE A LIFESAVER! Thanks! It really fixed my sync contacts issue! GApps suite works perfectly now and I feel my phone is now completely... complete!
Also, I don't need to install Google Contacts since the default China ROM "Contacts" app does its job synching all my Google contacts already.

Just to add, make sure to DENY access on Google Contacts Sync app.
Reason: In other Moto devices running China ROM (ex. Edge S Pro), there is a bug in synching Google Contacts and Whatsapp.
Device will keep on deleting/modifying (removing symbols) entries RANDOMLY. This may be the culprit.
Also, you need to remove ALL contacts and re-add them after you have signed in to your WhatsApp. This is the only way for Google not to mess up with my conctacts.

Update: You need to DISABLE stock Moto dialer, contacts, Lenovo Appcenter and LeCloud apps as it is messing up Google contacts. Do this BEFORE installing Google contacts sync apk. Install Google dialer and contacts. Done.

thanks it finally work on my edge x30 , thanks you saved my life
cheers mate

Just to add for Edge x30 or any Moto China ROM users:
After setting up your GMS and you encountered this issue - "Intent Filter Verification Service has stopped"
- just search for the app and CLEAR DATA. Restart your phone and you won't have this error anymore.

Another update:
On latest software updates (Feb or April 2022 patch and above) on my Edge S Pro and Edge X30, Lenovo may have fixed the bug where the system modifies your contact numbers (ex. Removing the + symbol if you save your contacts with country code).
In my case, I do NOT need to disable any Moto apps (App Center, stock dialer, wallet, etc).
Here's what I did:
1. Installed all GApps (including contacts sync, Google Dialer and Google Contacts).
2. Disabled Moto apps (stock dialer, contacts, app center, etc)
3. Installed my other apps (Whatsapp, etc).
4. Enabled Moto apps
5. Uninstalled Google Dialer and Google Contacts.
6. Logged in to my other apps (Whatsapp, etc).
7. Done.
Side note: if you want your Google Calendar accounts to get sycned with the Moto calendar, just install Google Calendar then open Moto Calendar and you will now see your accounts/birthdays/holidays. You can proceed to uninstall Google Calendar. Weird bug but that's how it works.

Thx very much! I just bought a Moto Razr 2022 and the Google Contacts cant sync. This is helpful and works well on my new Razr
