Hi
recently picked up my GW5 (Bluetooth) after my GW2 died on me, Everything setup fine other than i appear to be unable to add a weather location?
Never had this issue before on my previous watch.
To confirm location service is enabled, and Weather has location set to Always Allow.
I have tried to open the Weather app within the Samsung Wearable app, selecting apps, going to weather and pressing App Settings. However the app crashes and returns to the previous screen.
All apps are updated, i have reset my watch a couple of times and still does the same, the only thing i have not done is reset / factory restore my phone, Something i really do not want to do.
Anyone else had such an issue?
Google Maps works fine on the watch, so its not go an issue with knowing my location / gps
Okay i feel abit of a numpty here, After countless methods it only just occured to me i debloated / disabled unused packages on my samsung phone.
Yes Weather was on of thoes APK's i disabled.
Anyone with a simlar issue, will need to ensure they have the Samsung Weather App installed on there Device and Enabled.

Hey guys, I have been experiencing a problem since yesterday: Although syncing is activated (I tripple checked!) my google account does not sync anymore as long as I use mobile data (other apps like google chrome are able to use mobile data, however, so I am able to surf the internet). This also means that I don't get any emails in push from my gmail account. As soon as I switch to WI-FI, syncing works flawlessly, emails are pushed without any delay. Manual syncing works (pulling down in the gmail app or via the options in the google account settings on the phone).
Another weird thing is the signal status icon. When using WI-FI it is white, as soon as I switch to mobile data, it turns orange (I'm using nova launcher).
So I decided to completly wipe the phone and then reinstalled CM 11s 33R which I downloaded directly from the CM-page. I reinstalled all the apps afresh which means I don't think I carried any wrong settings from my last ROM over to the newly installed one.
Anybody got an idea what the reason could be that there is no syncing anymore and how I can resolve this?
Hi,
im facing the same problem since yesterday morning. I've recognized the exact same issues with the same situation.
As long as im in WLAN all is good. As soon as i am on mobile-data network push is not working anymore. I has been working before fine, but till yesterday it stopped. I didnt change anything in the configuration.
Very strange. I would be very happy if anybody has a glue on how to fix that.
I've also made twice a reset (once per TWRP, and another reset with android reset function) but both didnt help to get rid of that problem.

Push and sync works again with my device. Also, the orange color in the Signal Status is gone and it is White again.
Found something in the OPO-Forum (thanks to gabriel3714):
Go to:
google.com /Settings /security
under section "account permissions" find "apps and websites" and click "view all" then try and revoke access to you OPO and any other items that shouldn't be there. Then restart your phone.
If anybody still has Troubles, here are some other things to try which were sent to me in an email by Matt Oli:
If Sync isn't working when you're using your data, here are a few things to check for:
•Make sure that Background data is enabled◦Phone settings> Data Usage> Scroll down to Gmail and make sure that "Restrict background data" is not selected.
•Disable Power saving mode
•Clear your App's cache and data◦Open Phone settings> Select Application manager> Swipe to "All"> Choose Gmail> Clear cache and data
•Limit your folder size◦Open Gmail via a desktop> Settings> Forwarding and POP/IMAP> Next to "IMAP access" select "Limit folder size"
•Try Unsyncing your Gmail account temporarily. Try this a few times.◦Settings> Accounts> Google> Select your account> Uncheck Gmail> Check Gmail
•Resetting IMAP◦Gmail> Settings> POP/IMAP> Disable POP & IMAP> Save Settings> Re-enable IMAP> Save Settings
•Remove Gmail Account and setup again◦Phone Setting> Accounts> Google> Select you email account> "Remove account"
◦Re-establish account.
Solution to your problem
Hi, I had same issue.
Go to Keep website. Remove all shared notes. (Delete them, Don't Archive). Go back to Keep on Android. Clear data from Settings -> App -> Keep and launch app again.
Problem solved.
Hi im facing an issue with google sync, im not able to get the game data sync option in google sync. i have updated google play services,play store..and also play games. kindly help me if know any solution.
I am currently running on cm11 rc3...it was working before..now its not...
Since upgrading to lollipop I'd noticed a couple of small niggles with me Galaxy S5. As I've not had to rebuild my phone since purchasing it, I decided a factory reset wouldn't do any harm. Since resetting, Google play services keeps waking my GPS and searching for my location, this happens every few minutes unless I turn the GPS off. I've got all the usual Google stalking features turned off (Google now, location history, location reporting) but I've still got the same issue. I've even reset again and unticked the box to restore my user data... But still Google want to know where I am.
Any ideas how to resolve this one? It's a pain if I have to keep turning my GPS off when I'm not using it, especially when I had no issue prior to factory resetting.

It's more likely one or several of the myriad of apps/services on your phone. Do you have a weather app on your phone? Well, how's it going to know how the weather is, if it doesn't know where you are? Facebook by default wants to know where you are so when you post or send a message, it tells everybody where you are. Even apps like music streamers want to know where you are so they can tell you where you were when you heard something. Lots of apps that you wouldn't expect to use GPS in fact do. The vast majority of this data collection is completely innocuous and harmless, but you always have the option to disallow it. Or not use the app(s) as well; remember, it was you that granted the app GPS permissions when you installed it.

Thanks for your suggestion, I don't think it is another app though. Prior to resetting my phone the 2nd and 3rd time I uninstalled any suspect apps one by one to see which one was the culprit. In the end I just went through the entire apps list and uninstalled/disabled everything I could, it made the phone really unstable and practically unusable but still didn't stop Google Play Services using my GPS every few minutes.
Any other ideas?

how about "Android Device Manager " .. is that disabled?
There are a lot of guides about how to fix this. It isn't always the same service that is an issue...but you can try and disable some of the ones that are known to be problematic. For example see post #3 in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2785128

Hello.
For several months, on my Galaxy S8 +, I suffered slowdowns on several levels:
update badges indicating the number of unread messages is only long after having passed a message or other read / unread
check for system updates with a result return after several minutes, see tens of minutes
calls of certain applications on click of the notification (google Play, system update ...) does not display the application immediately
installing apps via Google Play is long after download, 100% OK download but install after several mintues
This only happens from my home, so may be related to geolocation.
I tried lots of actions but nothing works, among other things erase all the data and caches of several Google applications:
Google locks framework
Google play store
Goolge
Google Play services for instant apps
Google Play Services
Badge Provider
etc ...
I also tried other solutions like:
Reset the S8 +
Delete and re create my Google Account
Delete Samsung account
Disable Smart Lock function
Switch to airplane mode, correct the problem for updating badges but obviously, can not check Gogle Play updates or System because no network
Disable WiFi only, problem persists
Disable GPS only, problem persists
Disable mobile data only, problem persists
Disable the IP V6 of my Box (BBox)
Call Google and Samsung without success
The only 2 actions that have a positive result are:
To uninstall all Google updates. It worked fine initially but unfortunately recently, after the update is done, in beta mode or not, the problem appears again.
Disable Bluetooth only, and the magic, after a few minutes, it works again and it is in time. Concern, more access to connected objects
For information, I use a Samsung Gear S3 Frontier connected watch with apk Samsung Gear and Samsung Health.
I did not push the tests beyond due to lack of time. For example, uninstalling some applications.
This post is a bit long, but it is the result of several months of investigation.
While navigating, on various forums, I note that I am not an isolated case and that several people are concerned of loan or by far. I tried to do a synthesizer.
Would you already know of such a problem and if so, do you have a solution, tracks, suggestions?
In advance, thank you to all those who will take some of their time to help me solve this problem.
Hi, I have One plus 3 with android 8.0.0
I went on holiday (10 hour zone difference)and deactivated all app connections (settings-data use-menu-data use control) except whatsapp and chrome and facebook, which only connected to the wifi in hotel.
I came back and activated all connections of apps (wifi and 4g).
All apps seem to work fine except for maps that finds the street I´m looking for, but just keeps on calculating best route.
Gmail opens emails, but doesn´t download or open the pdf or any file attached and google play store opens my apps ans similar ones on screen, but can´t seem to download any new ones to install and doesn´t search for any app I type in the search bar.
I´ve deleted all cache in recovery mode, and also tried changing the time to manual and to automatic rebooting in between (I read this somewhere), but it´s still the same.
I´ve also reset all app settings in app menu.
No idea what to do next.
Also, not sure if the trip had anything to do with this issue
Hopefully somebody can help me as I don´t really want to reset my phone.
Thanks
I'm at a loss here. I have asked Google for their help and they were useless. I have been using a Samsung Galaxy S8+ (AT&T). It has a feature called SMART LOCK that uses a Trusted Place, which has worked in the past without any issues. For those that don't know or use it, it allows you to keep your device unlocked while your at a trusted place. With that being said, My home address keeps deleting from Google Assistant > Settings> Personal Info> Home & Work Locations. My work location stays here, but my Home Location keeps getting deleted for some reason. I can't figure out what is causing it.
I've deleted it and edited it many times and yet it still happens.I thought it was an app or allowed program, but I went through them and didn't see anything that shouldn't be allowed in my Google account. I have deleted my cache, data and uninstalled updates on all, Google Play Store, Google Assistant as well as a few others. Yet my Home Location keeps on disappearing for no apparent reason. I wouldn't care so much, but I use the Smart Lock feature while home.
I have used Tasker from the play store and set up commands and this didn't even work to unlock phone while at home.
I have wiped my phone many times and it still happens. Does anyone else have this issue or at least know a fix or is this a bug?
Any help would be much appreciated.
Sounds very frustrating. I have not heard of the issue before.
I'm wondering if you have also cleared out your Gmail address/contact info and Google calendar profile, as well?
What happens when/if you create a new alias profile? Will the alias address remain?
I would have to get back to you on that. I haven't tried creating another profile (alias). I can create another Google account and see what happens. I was also wondering if it was a fb so that could be doing it, but I have the same apps on my tablet (running marshmallow) and it doesn't get deleted from there.
Is doing it on my phone and my wife's.
