Contacts not syncing, GPS unstable - Google Pixel 2 Questions & Answers

I'm wondering if anyone has or had the same issues.
I don't manage to get my contacts to sync with my google accounts, and when using google maps or Komoot, it doesn't find my position. Sometimes the position marker stays gray for a long time, showing some position I had a while ago.
My installation of Open Gapps nano didn't succeed when I did it right after installing Lineage OS, and before restarting. When booting into LOS, there was no Play Store. So I re-installed Open Gapps again from recovery, this time it worked. Maybe it got to do with the issue?
Thanks for any hints .

For me the contacts-issue got solved with this weeks LOS update. Suddenly all the contacts were on the phone.

[Q] GAPPS and Google Services Framework not working

Running CM7.1 nightly #165 along with Glitch v12 for some time and it worked really well. Just recently I started having issues with gapps force closing: "The Application Google Services Framework... "
I found a thread on the CM forums that helped: uncheck all google account syncs, reboot, sync each one back individually waiting until one finishes before doing the next one.
This worked really well, but the problem kept cropping up... updating to glitch v13 (from glitch app) seemed to make things work, but it wasn't on a clean install.
I just did a clean install of nightly #165, glitch v12 and updated to glitch v13 before restoring any apps, etc. Everything appeared to work great on home wifi, work on 3G, but when I went to bed and woke up the white bars were back and I was getting the force close issues.
Logically, it seems that this is on google's end. But it doesn't seem like it would last this long. Turning off wifi didn't help. I'm running out of ideas - especially without a root cause.
I found this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1339745 which mentions the google calendar causing the problem?
Any ideas are greatly appreciated. The biggest frustration is that when this happens, no other apps seem to work. All force close soon after opening.. even the non-google ones (Angry birds, words with friends, titanium backup, etc).
Thanks!

[Q] google maps is not responding..

My Google maps just started doing this where whenever I zoom in on the map, I get a box that pops up saying maps is not responding and it has 3 choices for me to do, wait, send report, or close. I have tried clearing cache, uninstall and reinstall, updated to the latest EOS nightly rom and this still happens. This problem just started recently happening too. Does anybody know how to get this problem fixed?

Google Services not working

My Google Play Store Stopped working + google play Games and also facing syncing problem with gmail and calendar , (no issue with internet connection) even after full reset .
also i am not able to add any other google account.
Nexus 5 Android 5.1.1 + rooted + xposed+ default kernel
and today i did clean cyanogen 12 installation but after adding my account this problem arrive again after some time
Have you tried narrowing down the issue, maybe a fresh install (don't root or install Xposed), add your account, run it for a day or two, or at least longer than you know it takes for the problem to occur. Just to make sure it's not an Xposed issue. I've never had issues just with rooting, but it always helps to eliminate any other possibilities.
I've seen something similar to this, and I never really figured it out. I'm using stock image, just root, but my issue was several google sync would not work, like contacts, calendar, and a few others. I tried removing the account and adding it back, it worked like you state, a few hours maybe, then it would have sync errors again. I re-imaged fresh, and I believe when I initially configured the phone the first time, I added my account when it asked instead of skipping it, like I do occasionally. It's been going strong since, but I still don't know if that was a correct "fix"
cyanogen have a setting to remove root access so i did , but the problem still there. i am 80% sure that this is not a root problem .
so i removed my google account but now i cant add any of my google account with my phone (Error -As shown in last screenshot)
i did a fresh start before so again its specifically related to my that google account (as i think)
possible cause of this problem -
1- Latest Stagefright Patch update by google on my nexus 5 (Problem occurs sometime after update)
2- Freedom app , which is used to activate some of my app . i tried this app 2 or 3 days before .http://onhax.net/freedom-iap-apk/
i found one quick solution
i Removed host file from Etc folder in root directory and now problem gone
One question, do you use or previously used an Ad-block app?
yup is that app cause problem?

on DP4 contacts wont sync

So I just installed dp4 over again just a clean flash and now the people app won't load any of my contacts that just worked on DP3
I attached a screenshot that's what it says most of the time it will eventually stop syncing but no contacts still it says I have 0 but that's not true
That has been a long time ago, I'm having the same issue now on a Pixel 2. My calendar syncs, though.
Was it the same for you? Did you find a solution?
For the the problem got fixed with this week's LOS update. Suddenly all contacts were on the phone.

Extremely Slow Play Store Downloads

Hello,
Since about a couple of weeks ago, the Play Store started getting really slow. Updates get stuck at "download pending", and sometimes they do download. Other app downloads get stuck at 100% downloaded for a long time before installing. I can leave my phone on updating all night and in the morning it is still not done. This happens both on LTE and on Wi-Fi, and I do have very fast Wi-Fi. I am on the OxygenOS Open Beta 10. I did not do any changes to my phone when this started happening.
I have tried all of the following to fix the problem, but it doesn't help:
Rebooting the phone
Uninstalling Play Store updates
Deleting and adding Google Account
Clearing cache
I tried wiping the phone and using OxygenOS 9.0.2 - same problem.
I have clean-wiped the phone, deleting even internal storage, and flashed OxygenOS clean stock, and still it does this. (it also has new problems, like Magisk doesn't offer root authorization anymore even though it installed and working according to Magisk Manager...)
The only way I could get the Play Store to work properly was to use a custom ROM, HAVOC 2, but that ROM has problems with the front camera in some apps.
It almost seems like the Play Store detects OOS and decides to act funky. Has anyone faced this problem, or resolved it? Should I contact Google and see if the problem is their Play Store?
I almost feel like, since I have tried with clean wiping and using stock ROMs, and things that weren't broken before just started breaking for no reason, that there is a problem with the hardware itself. It makes no sense that the problems carry over into stock ROM when I have wiped everything several times.
Uninstall or disable the google app.
That fixed it for me.
Let me know if that works.
