[Q] Skype contacts syncing failing - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

heeey all,
this NOOB has got into a bit of pinch and hopes there is someone out there that might know the cause of it.
Last saterday a friend of mine rooted my Nexus.
After al that stuff was done, ive installed all my apps again including skype.
now here is the problem:
Before it was rooted it had all the contacts that i also have on the normal skype for PC.
After the rooting, i had to sync my contacts again, but this time i didnt get the contact list thats also on my normal PC, but instead i get contacts that are in my phone list.
I have also tried clearing the cache and reinstalling it up to 3 times, but still the same effect
I have tried all the 3 syncing options and none will get me my normal contacts as it used to be before it was rooted.
The version of skype that ive downloaded is 2.6.0.95
i hope there is someone out there who can help me with this problem, im getting pretty pissed of about it

Yes I have push gmail by using acrivesync and it worked for me about the last 3 weeks but today it says:
A network or server error is currently preventing your device from synchronizing with your exchange server. If this condition persists, please contact your system administrator.
Support code: 0x85010005
Last synchronized: Today 06:44am
I have almost the same problem ... before I change my phone, it worked fin on my iphone, and on my diamond for test, but now, nothing since 3 days ...
After a few tests, If I uncheck mail the synchro works fine, it should be a problem on google side ... ****
It was working earlier this morning....phew...I thought it was just me having the issue.
Hopefully Gmail will fix the issue.
I deleted my sync and re-established. no longer getting error.
try it out....see if that works for you.
I did it almost 10 times, got 2 or 3 mails, and then nothing else ...
it is fine now, i was getting no email updates previously, but now works fine
I don't, currently, sync my mail. But I do have other problems syncing with Gmail, for contacts and appointments.
1) It never actually synchronizes the first time I press sync (i have mine set to manual) I have to press it a second time for the data to actually sync.
2) Even if I make NO changes to any contact it always has a list of 20+ contacts it is updating (what is it updating??)
3) I stopped using HTC Favorites tab because all contacts in this list get screwed up everytime I sync with google, mainly loosing their photos and rearrangin how I have names displayed (reverts only these few back to standard last name first)
4) DO NOT, I repeat DO NOT use Tmo My Faves if you plan on using google sync. If you do every time you sync through google Tmo will go through and change your my faves contacts back to how they feel they should be displayed, including getting rid of custom ringtones for that contact and their photo. And you will get a txt message for every change tmo did.
5) Evey couple of weeks it tells me a change on the server requires every contact, and or appointment, to be erased and re-synced! Terrifying the first time it happens, not knowing if you are gonna loose anything.
These are almost too much trouble to keep using google sync... and yet I persist with it, hoping these stupid bugs will be worked out.
I have since dropped my faves, since I have the good customer unlimited plan. And have stopped using the HTC favorites tab. Even so, I still get problems with some of the contacts that used to be favorites.
WIll try again to use push ...
It seems like Google is still working some stuff out. I had the same issue and another as well.
Apparently the HTC favorites thing stores some data in proprietary places in your contacts and so that causes problems.
Also, for me unticking "Tasks" for syncing has solved the problem before.
Gmail Emails are not instant, I switched to Live because of this!

[Q] Problems with Gmail, Gtalk and Market. Please help!

I just noticed the other day that gmail was no longer pushing new mail, so I attempted to manually sync, but nothing at all happened. My phone is telling me "Sync is currently experiencing problems. It will be back shortly." Its been saying that for almost a week.
I also noticed that when I try to download from the Market, it hangs at "Starting Download..." and does nothing at all.
When I try to open Gtalk it immediately force-closes.
I've been trying to find the solution to this for about four or five days, and I really don't want to have to do a factory reset. I figure that these incidents are all related, but cannot for the life of me find out how to fix it.
If you know anything about this and can, please help! Running rooted stock 2.2 rom. clockwork recovery.
I don't know about the gmail issues but I had a few problems with the market too. What fixed it for me was trying it again when I'm connected to wifi with a strong network. It flys when I did it that way.
Did you try deleting gtalk? then reinstall
I want to, but unfortunately uninstall isn't even an option for gtalk since it is a part of android.

[Q] Contacts getting deleted by phone

This is my first post but have been reading this forums since S1 and LG p970. Thank you to all this comunity for all.
This is the first time i dont find the issue in the forums so i write.
My wife has a N7100 just the same as mine, same stock Rom and she doesnt have any wierd apps or nothing.
She has been losing all her contacts. And we restore them from Gmail and they sync ok, and some day again she has no contacts in her phone and in gmail.
I tried different things as erasing the accounts and putting them and still lose contacts. Then I reseted the phone to factory (and a fight you know why, people doesnt like to start from scratch to install apps) and after restoring from backup contacts in gmail and synced with phone, she has all contacts. Then one time she doesnt again has any contacts in phone or gmail, nothing!.
Any ideas? She is getting mad at me XD
Plz anyone??

Contacts always crashing the phone

Hello, I have a stock z1 compact and in the last 2 months every time I try to access the contacts or make a call the phone or contact app crashes making it a nightmare to make calls.
I have cleaned the cash, reinstated the full phone to factory, nothing works, anyone has a solution for this? Or an idea on why this happens? Is it the sync on LinkedIn and Facebook contacts?
Thanks for the support
Anyone?
No idea, never heard of it.
In any case, try to reset again and only sync google contacts, leave LinkedIn and Facebook away. If it still works, add either Facebook or LinkedIn and check again. If it still works add the third one and you might know the reason.
I there thanks for the idea I tried it yesterday actually and keeps doing the same thing I think I might go for a rom instead of stock. Can I do this having a branded phone?
You can do that, but I still wonder why it happens.
What exactly happens? Do you get the option to submit the data to google?
Which release are you currently running on the phone?
It just appears the damn error message of a app crash saying that the contacts application crashed and asking to close it.I am the latest version. Thanks for your help
Probably it's some contact which has some weird letter/symbol in his address. Maybe you could check all your contacts in gmail, if you synchronize it. But yeah, no idea why this is really happening.
Hehe damn computers! Well Thanks nevertheless for caring very much appreciated

android.process.acore on CM 11 rooted FIRE phone

For months I have hardly problems with this android.process.acore has ended message in my cm11 rooted fire phone installed nano GAPPS (but even with other versions of GAPPS the Problem stayed the same). I have no idea what to do any more, flashed and backuped everything again and again, deleted and restored the contact-datas the way it is discussed in many forums. The problem disappears while disabeling the contact-storage, but this way I cannot use my Fire Phone for phoning from the contacs anymore much less using contacts in Whatsapp . The problem seems to come along with WhatsApp and Facebook and its Messenger, but once installed the problem android.process.acore does not disappear when uninstalling these programs. Anyone got an idea? Thanks a lot for your help!
That's strange, has there been any recent updates to your phone?, i don't know how long you've been on cm11 but amazon recently stopped supporting Facebook who also owns whatsapp. I know someone on stock whose messenger and whatsapp stopped working and the tech on mayday had to relay that to them. Idk if they stopped support through an update or some other means since I haven't been on stock for a very long time. My advice would be to take a logcat and post the issue in the cm11 thread if you can
<romario3600> Thanks for yor advice. I've been with CM 11 from the very beginning and I don't really remember when the problem started, might be like half a year before.. That's weird, for any reasons that android. access. accore disappeared now after uninstalling both facebook and its messenger. Didn't know that the support stopped and this might have caused it. I got a solution now with a third party facebook version by apache. It's working well until I found a solution for my problem.
I have still no idea...
Now the android.process.acore is happening again. I uninstalled all the apps (facevook and it's messenger) that caused the malfunction. Now I got another app called Immonet that claimed the same rights with synchronisation owitg contact data. I uninstalled this app with all data and even wiped the old folders. But the error promt does not disappear anymore I did not find anything all over the net anyone having the same problems that I do.. Anyone got an idea how to solve this one out? I'm so much disappointed,hardly thinking of buying another phone but I like this fire phone with CM11 a lot.

As a last resort if you have the time and effort to put in, id say revert to stock and do a factory reset the normal way using the fire phone's recovery. That should at least ensure that everything is wiped and back to default. After that try downloading and installing CM11 again, don't cut any corners where you might have to wonder if something went wrong. Once the systems boots properly try installing the play store as well as messenger and whatsapp and see how things go from there. avoid rooting the device until you are sure things work
I got another completely new fire phone, rooten CM11 now from the latest FireOS 4.6.1..1. and at the beginning everything worked fine up to now. Now I got the same android.process.accore message again on this completely different device. As this problems is not very common I got now the idea that it might have anything to do with the synchronisation of google contact and it's permission management with these programs that have the rights to read sync the contact storage. But no idea ehat it might be exactly. A while ago I deleted all my contacts on the Google server. Is it possible that the synchronisation got a problem now with my different devices that were once registered on the server with not always having the very same telephone directories? How to solve it if my venture is right?
I just solved this (I hope, so far so good) on my Sony Xperia Z2 tablet. I cleared data on any and every app that had anything to do with Contacts. I went right down the list in All Apps. If it used contacts, I cleared it. That meant Gmail and Hangouts, Messenger, etc.
Before I did this, I tried to write an email and litterally had the error with every single letter. Since I did this, I haven't seen it once. I wrote out an email address on a draft email and posted 2 posts (this will be the third) here. No error yet!
Not an expert. Just a user and fellow acore victim, sharing what worked for me. Though I have been in tech support for 17 years (just more of a Windows PC tech really).

I will check this out on the weekend when there's some time for me doing so. Will tell you if it worked.
