I noticed my google contacts stopped synching a week ago, not sure why and even if I hit the sync now button everything but contacts will update, I dig a little and a week ago was when I got the latest updated on the google app, wonder it this has something to do with it?
have any seen similar issues?
I'm planning on look for latest google contact apk and manually install it to see if it fixes the issue but would like to know why this is happening and how to prevent it if possible.
solved it deleting my account, deleting google contacts sync and then reinstall it again and add it back my accounts weird issues tho

Every day, sometimes twice a day, the phone will have a notification that it "found" some suggested contacts to link between my Google account and Facebook. So I link them all and click Ok. Then it comes back later again. This has been happening for months. Has anyone else seen this bug or know how to resolve it?
mine just started doing it lately and its annoying!

I don't have this problem but I don't use Google to sync contacts, I sync with my companies exchange server. I'm sure you've tried this, but maybe remove FB account and then add it back?
mine doesnt just do it with google. it also does it with the ones that are synced via tmobile as well. i may try deleting the facebook sync and start all over. funny thing is i froze my facebook account a few weeks ago via my pc and when i unfroze it, i had to delete the sync and re-add it for it to work again.
When I turned on Auto Sync. I get the message, "Sync is currently experiencing problems, it will be back shortly". I can't sync my contacts at all. I also tried Contacts Sync Fix(app), and thay didn't seem to help.
Please any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

I'm not so sure about that. Can you check the date the sync was last successful? My sync date on my Galaxy S3 was a few months old (in Feb I think). I think (at least I) am running into the problem described in http://code.google.com/p/android/is...s Owner Summary Stars&groupby=&sort=&id=42641. I tried a few suggestions there like clearing out my contacts data etc. And then I deleted my account and recreated it and the problem is worse now. I don't get a last successful sync date at all anymore. No errors. But no syncing either. I can create new dummy records and it will eventually (a few minutes later sync). And changes I make on the phone will also eventually reflect in the cloud. Meanwhile no problems syncing on my Nexus 10. But if I change a real record (possibly a Google+ account), it never syncs up.

Well I removed my google account yesterday and re added it and now everything syncs up fine. My last sync time was about 5 minutes ago. It syncs constantly throughout the day since I use G+.
I have the same problem. If I clear the contacts data, it'll sync but only once. If I add something on my phone or on the website, the sync won't work again until I re-delete the contacts data again.
I have this for about 3 weeks now. I even reinstalled the ROM, but not helped.
Acer E350 with Android 4.0.3 (with 5 different updates, even with the first version). Everything worked correctly until May 15.
I solve this problem, I think...
Google Account Dashboard -> Account -> Security, I deleted all (mobile) apps*connections to my account, then deleted my Google Apps account on Android and reinstalled it. Now I can access everything again!

I've been having this issue for the past week and can't seem to fix. I've gone to Settings and deleted cache and data, Google contacts will resync and bring the contacts back, but then a short time later, they are gone. I've done this about a hundred times already. I've also gone and deleted duplicate contacts, installed an app to fix broken contacts, all to no avail. I don't know what else to do at this point, very frustrating. I'm having this issue on different roms that I flash.

I am experiencing the same issue once again. I don't know if this is Rom related or anything, but it's driving me nuts!!

I'm a little late to the game here, having recently acquired a One, but this fix worked perfectly for me. So far it's been a few hours and the sync still refreshes without issue. Kudos.
Which settings?

I can't find this settings. Does anyone know where this settings is at? This sync error is heavily draining my battery.
i am having this problem in my nexus 5 with kit kat 4.4.4
all my appointments just vanished and i do not know why. when i try to sync it says that sync is currently experiencing problems and that it will be back shortly.
it is like that since 29 July. i already deleted the calendar updates, cleared cache, cleared data and no luck. i can see all my appointments in my browser but my calendar app is empty.
any tips?

Up grade to lollipop?

As far as I remember it can be related to bad contacts. Several similar situations (and solutions) can be easily found on Google.
I have tried but no luck.
At first, all my appointments disappeared from my mobile phone even when they are still active when i access them from my web browser. and everytime i made a sync (from the google account menu of the mobile phone) the calendar would not sync and it said that it was a problem related with google servers.
i left it alone for some days but thought it was strange for google to have the servers with problems for so many days. after some research i tried to clear cache, clear data, disable calendar and enable it back again.
this did not help me either. but from a clean installation, i tried to add my account again (before updating to the newer version) and i wasn't allowed to do it. after updating to the newer version, i still cannot sync it. now, from the google account menu of the mobile phone, i do not have the option to choose calendar as it is not there anymore. i have all the other options like chrome, contacts, drive, etc but nothing related to calendar.
i really need to make it sync as part of my life is related with appointments and calendar really helps in that.
I also tried to create new appointments all over again but when i try to do so, the calendar app just stands there with a little circle that never stops rotating.
i am using kitkat 4.4.4.
i hope to have some help as i have tried a lot of options but nothing solved my problem.
My Contacts have been refusing to sync for over a week now; the circular arrows showing the Contacts sync stay visible all the time, and the sync date/time does not update. All my other accounts are working, it's just the Google contacts. I've tried clearing various caches, removing and readding the account, downgrading Play services, reinstalling completely, nothing works. I've never had this problem before. I think it may have something to do with the Play services for Instant apps that was rolled out recently; things started getting wonky around that time. I don't know for sure. I'd rather not have to reflash over this though.
For the past two weeks, the Gmail android app has stopped automatically syncing mail from my primary Google account. Sync is turned on in both the Gmail app as well as in Settings. I've tried toggling them off and on as well. Other Google accounts sync mail without a problem so I don't think it's an issue of Gmail not running in the background but I've also set the app to "Unrestricted" battery usage.
I've tested this on 4 different Android devices and my personal account doesn't sync on any of them (including an older version of the app). I'm currently using the Outlook app until I can figure out the problem and it automatically syncs the account just fine. Co-incidence or not, I started noticing this around the time I installed Nameless ROM on my Oneplus 8T. I've tried totally removing the Google account from the devices and re-adding it multiple times. Any idea what could be causing my personal Google account not be playing nice with the Gmail android app?
Did you find a solution ? Im facing same problem. Just one account doesnt sync and its my primary... I tried different phones and on all of them it cannot sync my data on that account. Gmail not working untill I enter it

Unfortunately, no, I haven't found a solution. I'm just continuing to use another email for that account.
Did it start completely out of the blue for you or had you recently installed a custom ROM or anything?
Installed custom rom but on different phone. My main is stock
Also already uninstalled every device from myaccount.google.com and still doesnt work. I've tried also on fresh phone but it doesnt work too. I have other gmail accounts and they are syncing without any problems on every device.

Yeah, sounds like we have the exact same issue. I also asked on Reddit a couple weeks ago and didn't get any responses. I'll let you know if I find a solution though.
Just an update to say that my account has started syncing again today. I didn't make any changes recently on my end so I still don't know the cause but at least it's resolved.
