[FIXED] Market Problems

Anyone else's market having issues today?
Lets me search and such, but no downloading. Always "Starting Download...." both on WiFi, and 3G.
Also tried restarting, Airplane Mode toggle, clearing Market cache, and uninstalling Market updates....
any other ideas?
see last post for fix.

I just finished updating a few of my apps + downloaded a new one.
No problems here, only thing I noticed was that it took a good 10-20 sec to actually start downloading (not just hang on the "Starting Download")
I did read a day or two ago that the market was having problems, something about dev's updates not being listed in the market or something.

i purchased and installed root explorer, everything went well but this was at 12noon

Still having market issues. Could it be related to switching ROMs and using the same email address and how it registers to the Market in Google's servers?

You log into Gmail? What Rom do you have? Did you delete Gmail / GmailProvider / or any of the gTalk stuff?

Current system:
DC2.08.01
I am logged into gmail, with the same account since I got my phone in February.
I have not removed any gmail or talk apps.
This started happening after I cleared my gmail storage when I was having gmail sync issues.
I tried "resetting" things by changing my password, so my phone would have to re-login to the main account.
Any other ideas?

I fixed the problem by making a nandroid of my current ROM (that wouldn't download from the market) and installed another ROM after wiping all data, and I could download from the market on that ROM.
I restored my nandroid and it fixed my problem. Must be an issue with how my account was authenticated.

[Q] Gmail syncing slow on 4.4

I know I asked this before but every since I updated to 4.4 my gmail sync has been painfully slow. Once in a while I'll get an instant notification other times I'll have to wait upwards of 5 minutes for it to come through. I didn't have this issue on 4.3. All I noticed when I checked the sync settings is that the sync icon was stuck on gmail and I had to manually refresh it. Does anyone have any suggestions. I already cleared the data and rebooted but there is no change.

Check the sync settings on the gmail app.

All those are fine. I'll send a test email and it will be instant but if I repeat it I'll have to wait 5+ minutes for it to come up again.

Mine Is Just Slow To Sync
My issue is similar, but different. My Gmail app on my phone is not syncing (or at least it takes forever) to sync with the Gmail itself.
If I delete 10 messages from my phone (Gmail) then go to a computer and visit my Gmail account via a web browser, the messages are still there.
I'm running HTC One. 4.4 Kit Kat Seems to have started around the time I upgraded. I also have a Google Apps domain, not straight Gmail. But we all know Google Apps mail is just Gmail with your own domain name.
Anyone else having this issue?
DISREGARD, I RESOLVED BY: FORCE STOPPING MAIL APP, CLEAR DATA. THEN RECONFIG CLIENT/APP.

Google Contacts Import / Sync

Hi All
i'm on ZUI 2.1.140
Google Play works normal
i wonder how to import / sync google contact since on account & sync there is no Google Contacts options
Thanks

You just have to install this 3 apks in this order, Google Contacts Sync, Google Contacts and Google Play Store. Don't forget to install Google Play Services if you need it.
Here's what you need. https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=93727

Calendar also does not work on my ZUI 2.5, how to fix it?

Looks like the sync adapter does take care of the syncing for the calendar, works for me after the sync status has completed. But you could always choose to install Google calendar from the playstore. Then open Zui calendar > settings > then change the default calendar to Google calendar.

I managed to sync the contacts, my only problem is, profile pics are not synced. I had one Rom installed from Franco, the Sync Adapter was preinstalled in this rom, sync was with Pics.
Now on zui 2.5, no chance to get the pics.

hello,
my problem is, since i´ve installed nougat on my z2 pro, my google contacts doesnt sync anymore. with marshmallow was it ok.

Mine stopped working after a couple weeks but I got it going again. Definitely a hassle, though.
A little background: After a lot of playing with Mokee 7.1.2 (CONSTANT hard freezes with blue LED making me miss my alarm the next morning), RR, AICP, etc. I decided to just try and make ZUI work for me between Magisk for root and Nova Launcher. I had brought up a clean install from QFIL flash of ZUI 2.5.335, flashed TWRP 3.1.0 (LR.Team version) to recovery, flashed 2.5.415 update zip, installed Google Play Store, Play Services, Contacts, and Contacts Storage from apkmirror.com and set about making it mine and disabling Chinese system apps and so on. Spent some time screwing with Safe Center (which thinks AdAway is a virus, but oh well), it was pretty livable. Only hard freezes if I use bluetooth with my car too long, which IS pretty annoying. But I've never had it freeze overnight and make me late for work, and hey, the camera Just Works, and U-Health is pretty cool.
Anyway, after about 3 weeks it was working pretty well for me, I miss some of the CAF/AOSP kind of things, but at least they're deploying security updates even if it's still Nougat 7.0 based. But then I noticed a week ago contacts stopped syncing. I could switch sync off & back on for Contacts but it wouldn't update. I tried wiping data for all the Google things and even deleting and re-adding Google accounts, but that just resulted in no more switch to tell it to sync Contacts. Dammit.
I DID get it working again today: I removed all the Google accounts from Settings, then uninstalled Google Play Store (com.android.vending), Google Contacts (com.google.android.contacts), and Google Contact Storage (com.google.android.syncadapters.contacts - I used Titanium Backup to uninstall the package since I bought that long ago), and deleted the updated Google Play Services apk from /data/apps (com.google.android.gms - use whatever file explorer with root access you like, I'm a fan of Mixplorer from XDA Labs but I'm sure ES File Explorer will work great). Rebooted. Gmail app doesn't know what to do with itself now.
I then reinstalled with Contacts 2.0.8, Contacts Storage 7.0 (API 24 target, woo; maybe this will work better than the newer 7.1+/API 25 target one that I tried before), Play Store 7.9.30, and Play Services 11.0.55 (240 version - Android 5.0+, ARM/ARM64 v8 abi, nodpi) from apkmirror.com and specifically made sure to give them all full permissions access instead of leaving it at the more paranoid "prompt" settings. I then was able to re-add my Google accounts and get Play store and Gmail and all the other Google apps to see them again with a little effort (basically had to re-do all the Google apps; Play Books, Play Music, Drive, Gmail, Calendar, etc.).
But contact sync seems to be working again, both for new contacts created through a computer web browser and created on the phone. I'm a little worried it's only temporary, I guess we'll see. But deleting Google accounts, full deleting 4 packages, and reinstalling with full permission access seemed to work.

How did you manage to sync contacts? And does anyone else have "ok google" greyed out?

I am on zui 2.5.435 st installed via QFIL, BL unocked, rooted Super SU. The sync initially worked but after a few days stopped working as well.
New setup works again. But if I click on "Refresh" in google calendar the Syncing does not stop. Do you have the same issue? There is something broken.
Why can't we just use openGAPPS?

What ever I try. The Sync will not work. I reinstalled the google accound many times. Deleted all google apps. Started with Contact app but whatever i try. It always says: This account already exists on your device. Somehow after installing Google Contacts Sync it downloaded 47 of the 1250 contacts to the phone. Its not visible in Google contacts. those contacts are the contacts I recently added in the last year. Online I see all my contacts. Why cant I find all other contacts on my phone? I even changed data restrictions. Set it on "no restriction" and cleared cash and all after deleting google account end tried all possible varieties of this.. Still no success in the Contact app.. Weird thing is that when I ask Google app verbally to call some of my contactst it works. So all the contacts are clearly still in my google acount and even linked to my voice command for dialing. Only the contact apps dont show them.. What is wrong here? Spend all night trying everythng. Nothing seems to work..

Can't sign into chrome?

I can't seem to sign in to google chrome using my account. My bookmarks and etc. were showing but every time I try to sign it I get the message 'this account already exists on the phone' and my history wouldn't sync. So, I removed my google account and signed it back into my phone.
The google account signed in on my chrome app then it just went back by itself, now I've tried to log in again and it says the same message now with no bookmarks syncing either.
I've uninstalled and reinstalled the app updates too, not sure what to do from here.
Anybody have any ideas?

same here. deleting the google account or uninstalling chrome does not help.
i manage to auto sign in into all other google aps

This happened to me when I changed my Google password while still logged in on my phone. I backed up via Huawei desktop software and factory reset my phone through recovery and it's all good now. Nothing else seemed to fix it.

Finally managed to fix it! I made sure the app had all the permissions set then I uninstalled all the updates again, this time I signed in first and it ended up working as normal then I just updated the app again and it worked perfectly. Not sure if the apps permission effected it but definitely try uninstalling the updates then signing in first before updating again.

Uninstall Google play services & chrome update first (bring it back to factory pre installed version) then login using chrome first before updating anything.
happened to me before when i update before got chance to sign in

Uninstalling Google play services solved all my problems

thank you this issues solved for me with re-update google play services

Hi all. I also have this issue. Which Play Services do you have to uninstall?

Just give the Google apps permission to your contacts and it will work

Well done all. It worked perfectly. See there sad a bug in the last update

Question CN version in US: minor problems

Google Play was installed out of the box. i downloaded all apps through there.
-google contacts not syncing.
-i get no push notifications like from the Ring app, youtube or ESPN. i did tap on allow when i first opened the apps.
-is there any way to get google news to appear when i swipe left on home screen?
google photos, maps, play store, stadia all seem right.
maybe there’s a solution. i read through older threads and didn’t find one.
any help appreciated.

I noticed that the preinstalled play store sometimes does not work properly. I had to reset device completely. Play services are part of the rom and available right after reset, I just had to download and install the play store itself.
Google Play Store 25.5.27-21 [0] [PR] 375135971 (nodpi)
43.43 MB (45,537,921 bytes)
As for notifications, you might wanna disable or delete the power save app from vivo and enable staying connected all time.

If you factory reset your phone, the first app to download from the vivo appstore is Gboard, which will prompt you to download Google play. I logged in to my google account afterwards and have no issues syncing to all my contacts, calendars etc
For notifications not appearing, a lot of users experience problems with the vivo provided power management app (com.vivo.pem) cause it interferes with how your apps sends notifications or frequency of push notifications to save power. You may use adb to disable it or uninstall. Hope this workaround addresses your push notification issue

i fixed the contacts and calendar (also had no calendar entries) sync issues. i went to APKMirror.com through chrome and downloaded the latest Google Play Store. I had version 24... on my phone and the latest was 26... I installed it through chrome and it installed over the existing app. I uninstalled calendar and contacts and re-installed them. calendar worked immediately on opening. but contacts didn’t. i went back to APKMirror.com and downloaded and installed Google Contacts Sync. I now have my contacts.
to get the push notifications working I went to Settings -> Applications and Permissions -> Permission management -> Permission - Background pop-ups and none of my installed apps were toggled on. since enabling them, I have received a couple of notifications with the phone in my pocket. maybe the vivo power management app is still causing problems because im not getting most notifications.
can someone point me to learn about "adb". I've seen that in a few places here and i don’t know what it is. im a long long time android user since google's first t-mobile phone but ive never had a need to tweak.
thanks for the help so far. just need to get my notifications and im pretty much all set.

so my only goal today was to install adb on my mac and "learn" how to use it and hopefully disable com.vivo.pem
installed on mac, enabled developer mode on x60, have access to device...
using: adb shell pm disable com.vivo.pem I got an error message
using: adb shell pm disable-user com.vivo.pem i got a successful prompt
when charging my phone and having the apps opened in the background (ESPN, Ring, Fast Mail) I do get push notifications. also get them while using the phone with the apps open in background. but with phone sleeping and in my pocket i get nothing. any ideas?

my issues are basically resolved. hopefully this will help others. I read in another thread to enable "mobile data always on" in the developer settings. as long as i have the apps open in the background, i now get push notifications when the phone is sleeping and in my pocket.

Which carrier are you using in the states? And do you have volte or vowifi?

im using it with tmobile. i don’t know how to check for volte or vowifi. i don’t actually use for phone calls. maybe make 1 or 2 calls a year. lol
