Can someone check to see if their Google Contacts is stuck after their first sync?
I've tried everything and cant fix it, first sync is fine then after that it I get "Sync is currently experiencing a problems, it will be back shortly"
FIXED: If you are using Signal, turn off the contact sync option under accounts as it will conflict with contacts! Only took me 2 days to find that!!

I have all sorts of weird bugs right now (been using BakedGoods 1.1) with my nexus: phone freezes up sometimes when i'm trying to answer a phone call, phone freezes up when trying to reboot/power off, text labels are misaligned sometimes...
So I've decided to flash to the cyanogen's latest ROM... but after flashing without wiping - I get infinite error popups of "process com.android.launcher2 has stopped unexpectedly", I can barely even power off the phone...
When I wipe the phone and then flash - everything seems to be alright... so I guess that's the only option left.
I've installed MyBackup and Titanium Backup - and backed up everything on my phone, but the only thing I couldnt backup was hundreds of links between contacts stored on google and facebook contacts (it took me FOREVER to link those, since my google contacts are saved in Hebrew, while the facebook contact names are in English...)
I really don't want to link the contacts one by one all over again... So my question is: is it possible to backup/restore the links between contacts?
Thanks in advance!
My question has ended up being on the bottom of Page 3, without any reply :/
I cant update my nexus without solving this issue, and I'm stuck with a buggy phone right now that freezes every now and then...
Please help, if you can :'(
Thanks...
I had the same problem but only with my gmail contacts + sim contacts, so after the second lost of "joins" I decided to do it the proper way.
Contacts were synced with my gmail accoutn and then in the gmail web I used the contacts manager to fix all the accounts for once (at least until I get a lot of new contacts), now everything is oganized in my gmail contacts and my N1 just fetches them, if I add a new contact in the N1 it will also end up in the gmail account and to make it better I used an app to sync all my contact's pictures with those on FB.
Good luck!
neoranga: thank you for your reply
I have a whole different scenario with my phone...
My contacts are already saved on my google account, but since many of my contacts have a Facebook account, I like them synced, so I can see their profile when I view a contact, and their profile picture on the phone is always in sync with their FB profile picture.
Since my contacts are saved in Hebrew, and the FB account names are in english, the phone cant 'Auto-match' them together... So I had to manually link each and every contact with its correct FB profile...
It took me so long to link them all together ( I have hundreds of contacts) and I'd **hate** to do it again, without even knowing if it'll be the last time of doing it...
There must be a way to backup these links too bad it cant sync with the google account...
Anyone else have faced this problem and got an idea of how to solve it?
I was on Darky's 10.1 rom when this first started and just updated to 10.2 and it looks like the glitch is still there. Usually I leave autosync off to conserve battery life but now I've left it on so Gmail and my contacts stay synced with my Google account. The weird thing that started occurring is that each of my contacts get copied multiple times after autosync happens. So I get about 6 entries for each contact. What I've been doing is signing on to my Gmail account and then going to "action" and merging duplicate contacts and then manually syncing the contacts on my phone, which corrects the problem. However! When auto sync kicks in again, the same thing happens. Has anyone else came across this problem?
Hey there!
A few days ago i started to have this issue with the google sync... When i turn on wi-fi, in the bar appears an icon saying that there was an error with the sync of the phone, and if i touch there, it tells me to put my mail password, i enter the password, it seems to do something and it takes me to the same position on puttin the pw again...
And if i go to the settings of the phone, on the google sync there is a small red icon with a "!", and inside there is problems with calendar, gmail and contacts...
I tried a lot of things and still doesnt work, and i already waited like 5 days to this problem to solve by it self if it was google, but clearly, it is not...
Goodbye!
UP!
Anyone?
go to settings/ Accounts & Sync and hit on auto-sync or down on list on your gmail account.
hit thanks
Using CM7 and every so often Gmail mail sync gets unchecked. When I go back in to accounts and recheck it, it syncs successfully. Calendar and contacts never unchecks. Anyway to resolve this?
Thanks.

I have run into this form time to time also. Someone on the cm forums also reported this for the heroc. No confirmation if it's a heroc issues, cm7 issue or a gmail issue. The cause is thought to be some issue related to not being able to sync for a certain time, i.e. loss of signal, or possible airplane mode, and then gmail decides to stop trying to automatically sync.
I also have the issue with google+
I can confirm that I have exactly the same problem. I use a zte blade with CM 7.1 stable release. I use the gmail app.
Any solutions?
i have this issue too htc legend
Try updating your gmail apk or roll back one.

I'm not sure if this is Note 8 related, Samsung related, or an Android-wide Google issue, but figured I'd start here.
I have a Verizon branded Note 8 that I'm using on T-Mo. I just bought the device Monday from an individual. I flashed the T-Mobile firmware and everything seemed to be working fine, until I noticed not all my contacts synced from Google. I'd say probably 75% of them synced, but I was missing a large random chunk of them.
I tried everything I read to resolve the issue. Deleted and re-added my Google account. Cleared the contacts app data/cache. Rebooted. Downloaded Contact Sync Fix. Nothing fixed it. I evwn downloaded Google Contacts, and they wouldbt all sync. I checked my Google contacts online and they're all there. If I ADD a contact to my Note 8, it syncs to my Google account.
I checked my S8+ and tried to re-sync my contacts on that device, and it keeps giving the "Sync is having issues..." message. I don't get that message on my Note 8, but obviously it isn't syncing properly.
I did a factory reset. That didn't fix it. I flashed the unlocked firmware, that didn't fix it. I set rhe phone back up, and I noticed issue #2. I suddenly lost the ability to customize my Google search bar. It wasn't a big deal at first. I usually have to wait for the app to update after setting the phone back up, and sometimes have to delete and add the search bar widget back. But no matter what I try, it won't work.
I factory reset again and flashed back to the T-Mo firmware. I didn't restore ANYTHING and set it all up from scratch as a new device. Still those two issues remain. I'm bone stock, not rooted, stock Touchwiz launcher, using all the stock Samsung apps. My work around is all my contacts were synced with my Samsung account, and they synced to my Note 8 just fine, but I want my Google Account contacts to sync properly. The search bar will just stay white I guess.
TL;DR:
1. Google contacts not syncing properly.
2. Google search bar widget no longer customizable.
google related problem.

Your link says page not found, but I finally got it working properly after you responded. I couldn't get it to Sync properly at first. It took me deleting my Google Account, turning off Samsung Contacts Sync, deleting all the contacts from my phone, force stopping the contacts app and clearing it's data. Then I rebooted, added my Google account and let it all Sync again. Low and behold, all my contacts have now synced properly.
My Google search bar widget has still lost its ability to be customised however. Which sucks, because I like a dark theme and it was awesome setting the bar to Black and transparent.
