Hi,
Yesterday the weirdest thing happened on my JB GNex for the first time.
My hotmail contacts and calendar entries have disappeared. Email is fine and using the stock email client with stock OS and unrooted International GSM version phone.
Anyone else experienced this & managed to find a fix?
PS. Temporarily managed to fix by going to settings/apps and clearing the data but next morning all disappear again...

well my girl friend had the same problem on her Galaxy nexus,
and every time i had to remove the Hotmail account and then add it again for the contacts to appear.
but it kept happening to her phone and it never happened to mine.
but after 2 months of this SH*T i decided to add her account to my phone so i'll have her contacts if they disappear and there is something urgent.
so i did add her Hotmail, and after 12hours this SH*T started happening to me too, even when i totally removed her account and mine.
it happens twice everyday.
the only thing i wanna do now is not just restore the phone to default settings, but totally flash a new firmware and clear all cache and try again but i have a lot on my phone to backup.
Wow that's pretty crap - temporarily, I cleared the cache/data under settings/apps which forces the contacts to reappear then did a local export and now I'm importing them at least once or twice a day...its the lamest work around ever if your workaround does work can you let me know pls?

Me Three
I'm (not) glad to see others are having this problem too.
I may be in the wrong thread running a Galaxy S2, but this recently started happening to me. I thought it was a combination of new ROM/Kernel (recently switched to Siyah 3.3.d) but have had this same problem with CyanogenMod 9 on both the Kernel they ship as well as Siyah. With Siyah running with Dual Boot and just a single ROM.
Clearing App data for Calendar, Calendar Storage, Contacts, Contacts Storage sometimes helps, but this is getting really annoying.
Does anyone know what the root cause is? I've considered going back to Stock Carrier ROM just to see if this keeps up. I've gone back to backups from weeks ago (when I don't think this was happening) and it now happens. Don't know what else to try.
Hey,
i totally restored to 4.1.1 locked back the phone just in case, and it still happened.
then i unlocked, restored to 4.0.4, no rooting, and it still happen.
i think my hotmail account got "infected" when i added my girlfriend's account.
anyone please help.
anyone has this problem with google mail ?

I've been having this issue too - from searching for answers it appears to be a bug with hotmail.
Some people have reported having success with changing the server to debug-m.hotmail.com, or xxx-m.hotmail.com (where xxx is the three letter server code assigned to your hotmail account). Neither of these solutions has worked for me.
I'd love to know what else people have tried.
I habe exactly the same Problem. Habe also tried setting up a different Server. Anyone Wirth a fix?

When I restored the phone on Fri I did it without restoring settings and no luck there in fact today its gotten worst I lost them already three times - this is sooooo annoying now...if its a bug with hotmail is certainly not affecting my mrs iPhone and probably not even windows phone either.

OMG.
Thank you guys SOOO much for putting this up. I thought it was just me!!!! I was about to post a thread of my own on this!
Yes, I've been having this issue all of last week. I thought it was my phone and or ROM configs. I can confirm that it's happening on all ICS ROMs. I tried 10 different ROMs, all 100% clean installs. As a matter of fact, I just finished loading Paranoid Android ROM, which is a JB ROM, in hopes that it resolves it.
My Hotmail account is set up as an Exchange account. Randomly, out of nowhere, all contacts, calendars, and emails are cleared, and it has to redownload itself. This is potentially disastrous as I depend very heavily on my Hotmail calendar.
Does anyone have any idea what's happening and what we can do to solve it?

After much research, it seems that this is a huge problem with Hotmail that started occurring mid May. I still haven't seen a concrete response from Microsoft regarding this issue.
Last night I deleted the email account under the stock email app and downloaded the free hotmail app from the app store...so far the contacts are intact ...if they disappear again I will update my post.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
OK they disappeared again, apparently the Google settings have nothing to do with this, its definitely Hotmail.
So i temporarily imported my contacts and switched to gmail it was easy because i already use Google calendar i only use Hotmail for email and contacts.
I already tried switching the m.hotmail.com server but i read that some hotmail users where switched to new servers, so maybe this is the problem.

I have seen this happening on my wive's, brother's and my Galaxy Nexus.
All of us have updated to JB.
I have solved this issue with exporting my Live-contacts and importing them to my Google Account.
I will use my Galaxy S3 from now on and my wife wife asked for a new phone, she's more impatient but will get the S3 now anyway.
I think Google does not like Microsoft anymore due to latest lawsuit results.
Anywho I blame Jellbean. :crying:

I can confirm that this is a problem on all ICS/JB ROMs and is therefor not related to a ROM.
now suddenly even my calender items disappeared as well - this is getting really annoying now - will export/import them to google again until MS has sorted this out. anyone reported this already in a MS forum or blog? if not maybe we should do that.
I'm having the same issue here. I was having the issue with the stock ICS ROM on my Samsung Galaxy Nexus. I rooted and flashed the BB Jelly Bean ROM but the problem is still happening. When I delete the account and add it back it syncs. But then the next day the contacts disappear. When I create the account I put in m.hotmail.com. But the next day when I look it says col-m.hotmail.com. I don't think this is the issue, but I also saw comments to try changing to this. It seems to be happening automatically.
Anyway, I noticed that when I go into Hotmail and edit a contact and save it, it syncs. I don't know how long that contact will stay on my phone. So it seems to me that it could be related to identifiying which contacts to synch. I tried changing the synch frequency but that didn't work either.
Does anyone know which Microsoft Hotmail forum we should post this?
- I installed the Hotmail Microsoft + 7 app. I now have my contacts again. I'm not sure if this will work long term. I tried using the app and it crashed, so I plan on continue to use the built in Android mail app. But hopefully the Microsoft app will allow me to synch my contacts. If this doesn't work, I think I'll import them into Google to have as a backup copy.

I've had the app since last night and for me all contacts and calendar entries have stayed put and not disappeared once. I will stick with the app for a while but would like to go back to stock app if/when fixed.

I posted my issue on answers.Microsoft forum. The only response I got was to install the Microsoft App. I also would like the stock android app to get fixed, but I'm not sure if the issue is with Android or Microsoft.

Same problem on stock 4.1.1 Galaxy Nexus
I've got the same problem too on the official stock 4.1.1 Jellybean update. My contacts and calendar go completely missing and removing/adding the account only makes it work for a day or so and then it disappears again. Email still syncs fine.
As someone reported in this thread Hotmail is still working fine with their iPhone, and it is working fine with my Windows Phone... I'm pretty sure this is Google's fault. It makes my phone near useless, that's for sure.
This better get fixed soon! If someone finds or hears about a fix, post it here and let everyone know!

Last night I updated my wife's Epic to DK28. The problem is her contacts are gone and syncing doesn't bring them back. Why wouldn't they have saved to her gmail am I overlooking something. I have flashed my phones a lot and never had this issue.
Sent from my SPH-M900 using XDA App
check google/contacts online and see if her contacts are listed there. My wife had a similar problem and turns out when she added a contact she added them to her phone address book and not google.

They are not there is there a way to add them to Google after they are back in the phone?
Sent from my SPH-M900 using XDA App
can you get them back on the phone? Are there a lot of them?
I had a similar problem on the syndicate rom a while ago. It would say it was syncing for a second then stop. I also noticed when i went to facebook.com and tried to install the app from there it thought my phone was something other than the epic. I resolved the issue by using a different ROM. I don't know if these things are related, but that might be a start...
Yeah luckily we found her old phone and transferred thru bluetooth but I am tryin to figure out how to get them to google in case this happens again. As far as the rom she was totally stock di18 not even rooted for 5 weeks and I updated her to unrooted dk28.

You should be able to export them from contacts via the import/export menu option. This will create a file named something like 00001.vcf(vCard file) in sdcard/external_sd/. Then go to the google contacts and import it. Hope that helps!
Ok I will try that. Thanks alot guys.

Just make sure when she adds any new contacts that she adds them to google.
Stupid question but she does have syncing turned on in her contacts right? After they're restored try to force sync, then check her google account from a desktop/laptop to see if it worked.
I've not had much luck with the import export v card feature. I recently had to delete all contacts on my phone, then go to my google account via desktop, export all contacts to google.csv, delete all contacts online, then reinstall online from the google.csv file in order to fix a syncing problem.
Sent from my SPH-D700
I think google may be having an issue at the moment. My phone is saying that Sync is currently offline and will be back shortly.
Yeah her sync is on I just don't get what happened. I have reflashed my epic about 10 times without issue. And my moment ugh probably 75-100. Never lost contacts it has been automatic since I got my first android.

After my last rom flash I had a situation where any time I added a contact on the phone it got deleted after syncing. No idea why but a google search lead me to others that had the same issue.
I think this OS still has a lot to be ironed out. I wish they'd stop adding features and just make a decent contacts app. I can't for the life of me figure out why I have to select which of the same four phone numbers I want to dial when I try to call a contact that is synced to multiple accounts, for example.
Sent from my SPH-D700
sometimes when i have synching issues, i fix it by going into 'manage applications' and clearing the data for that app. i've had to do that with gmail.... it erases and re-synchs the app, and afterwards it works like normal. of course, only do it if she does indeed have her contacts backed up on Google... otherwise they will be gone. not sure if this will fix hers, but just saying it did fix my synching issues a few times.
Hi all, How are you?
I have a Galaxy Nexus with Android stock 4.1.1 JR003C and Facebook app 1.9.8.
I am experiencing a weird issue with latest fb app update, May someone help me please?
I have turned on all notifications on my fb account and on the app settings, but I still don`t get any notifications at all.
I mean, I have push notifications enabled on fb app and also in my fb account. However, I don`t receive any notifications on my cell phone.
I have tried clean the fb app cache/data and also re-install it. However, It didn`t fix this issue.
Please, does someone know what can be this issue root cause?
Thanks in advance,

Make sure allow notifications is ticked in the Android App Options or use G+ or the browser

just wanted to chime in that im not receiving notifications even though ive made sure all the proper options are checked.
running mROm.
Facebook notifications on Android 4.x are VERY buggy. Try a Google search on the matter. For some people it works, for others it has never worked. Despite all settings are OK. I fixed mine by lending a Blackberry device from someone and logged into Facebook using the BB Facebook app for that one time. The theory is that allowing the BB app access to your FB account somehow fixes notifications for Android as well. This workaround has proved to fix it for many people myself included. Worth a shot imho.
The only way mine work was to activated bb on facebook. Hello facebook android is not a bb!

Hi all,
thanks a lot for helping
I was wondering, besides the blackberry workaround, is the another workaround for this issue?
I don't know anyone with a blackberry
Is there a kind of blackberry emulator for developers that I can use?
Btw, all notifications settings on Facebook website and on Facebook Android app are correct. Fb app notifications have stopped to work on my cell phone after the latest fb app update...
Google plus looks like good choice, but nobody uses it.
Access fb website on cell phone doesn't give me push notifications.
Thanks in advance,

Guys, same thing here! Notifications not working! Galaxy Note, using AOKP 4.0.4 ROM.
In fact, I had this problem in the past, but I solved it using exactly this BlackBerry method. Now it's not working again! I even did this BlackBerry login thing using emulator again, but still without notifications here. As my birthday was on August 27, I thought that, maybe, due to lots of notifications about "happy birthday", Facebook stopped on purpose all those notifications, but now I'm noticing it's in fact a bug!
Please, Roger, tell us if it will work to you! As I said, I tried this again and now it's not working!
And I really don't know when Facebook will made decent apps for Android. Probably Mark Z. is an stupid Crapple fan boy!

Did this tomorrow before going to sleep, after doing one more time BlackBerry trick. A few hours ago, when I woke up I noticed a Facebook notification, about a comment in a picture I was tagged. I became happy, because I thought the issue was solved, but I had more notifications after that and it's not working again.
Hi all,
I tried the blackberry workaround, and It didn't work for me.
Please, does someone know another workaround for this issue?
Btw,I tried Facebook app on my ipod touch, and it seems that notifications works on IOS...

I have also tried wiping Facebook app cache, and also reinstalling the app itself.
Unfortunately, neither worked.
does this notifications issue only affects galaxy nexus?

No, it's an issue of the Android Facebook app. It's supposed to get a major overhaul that will be released in the next few weeks, just like iOS. Let's hope that will fix a lot of issues including buggy notifications.

let me clarify it for you. Google had blocked Facebook syncing on android because of privacy issue. Facebook notification doesn't have any issues with privacy, so that's why Google only blocked contact syncing
Swyped on my Galaxy Nexus running AOKP with Franco Kernel, overclocked to 1.4GHz
I think my notifications are back here, although just some of them are being notified here.
Using Galaxy Note, AOKP 4.0.4 and latest Facebook app.

thanks for clarifying
I am aware about this privacy disagreement between Google and Facebook (I am very concerned about my privacy on internet), but the majority of the users don't care about it. Besides, I think that blocking fb sync is stupid decision as it is very unlikely that fb will do something about it...
I hope that Android will lose market share to Apple with new IOS with fb integration, thus Google might realize that it was a bad decision, and hopefully will stop to force users to use Google plus (it is good,but nobody uses it).
Btw, I have just received an update for fb app(1.9.9) and it didn't fix the notifications issue. Did it fix this issue for someone?
Just reverted back to 4.12 and works fine. My company forces Administrator access which in turn enforces having a pin. I get prompted for neither of these with 4.2 and therefore exchange email will not work. Anyone else facing this issue? It appears something is broken. I am on stock 4.2 rooted and odexed. Appreciate any suggestions
At my work we also use exchange and have enforced pin and a lot of other things, i don't have any problems at all. When i set up my exchange account on my phone i got promted that the exchange server demanded all kinds of remote access, pin being one of them and since i didn't have one it took me to the settings menu and asked me to set a pin code, just like it did on 4.1.2

I can connect just fine. However, everyday it starts over. Meaning that, if I have it set to sync for a week. It will regenerate the emails from the beginning of the week until it catches up. I reset it to sync one day only and it is still starting over.

Keith, what you describe above happens to myself and another colleague with the same phone but completely inconsistently. It will reset itself and start downloading email all over again.
I have the same issue on unrooted ics. But my company doesn't allow rooted phones so I have a nandroid backup I use when I need it for work. I thought it was just me going back and forth between unrooted and rooted jb rom. Sounds like an issue between android and exchange.

There's no issue with android and exchange. The issue is that your exchange admins have enforced policies that android doesn't like and/or your exchange admins have no idea what they're doing.
I'm the administrator here and just set up a fresh MS Exchange 2010 server and my Nexus with 4.2 is working flawless.
I think it's more what we're doing. Admins don't exactly like us messing around like we are. But service providers aren't supporting us like developers are so what's a guy supposed to do

If you search the Themes and Apps section for this device you will have noticed that someone has a modified Exchange apk to remove the security check. Push this to your phone and you should be good to go.
Glad to see there are some good ones out there who are reasonable. Actually, I'm being a little hard because there are quite a few good ones out there. So how do I get around having to be unrooted with Mobil fusion. Would love to be able to run 4.1.2 on my skyrocket.

I have no issues with Exchange account and 4.2.1. Running stock 4.2.1 rooted. No issues of the like you have (I also have PIN enforced, and it works flowlessly).
If it's related to your company security policy FYI you can bypass them by sideloading a modded version of the Mail app. It's probably already available somewhere here on XDA.
Just check on which email the sync stops. Delete that email and give it another try...
I have had that as well. I deleted the complete profile on the server and rebuilt it.
I have use 4.1 and now I am on 4.2 (Rootbox 3.3.1/Dorimanx 1.34) without any issues....
Although I would like to see my subdirs on the main screen (what seems to be impossible with the current email.apk versions....).
Bye and enjoy your holidays,

Ever since flashing the ROM on 12/12 I have not had my contacts sync. I'm getting the "sync is currently experiencing problems" notice. I've tried numerous fixes after Googling the message, nothing works. Has anybody else had this issue and successfully fixed it?
Not here, everything synced. AOKP, Dec 4
I have the same issue with the Google sync. I don't have a fix for you, unfortunately.
Although the sync page for all my gmails constantly says its not working right now, my emails seem to be working just fine. And I have 4 gmails, besides one Hotmail and one yahoo email account. But, if someone does know what's up, it would be nice to know why it is stuck with red spiral and not green.

No matter what, gmail emails will not automatically be synced unless i manually refresh the gmail app. On my old Nexus 5 and any other android device I've used the gmail app will always send a push notification whenever i receive an email but that does not happen on my N5X. I have enabled all the sync settings etc, compared them with the N5 to see if i had any setting unticked etc but they are the same yet my new 5X doesn't sync.
Anyone know any solutions?

Working okay here. Doze mode can stop Gmail notifications, so if the phone is left for 30 minutes or so and isn't moved that might explain it. Generally the notifications then ping through when you turn on the phone, or they just arrive late at the next scheduled wake-up event that Doze controls.
It might just be a registration problem at Googles side with their cloud notification system, it may sort itself out, have you tried restarting the phone?
Are Hangout notifications coming through okay?

Check your settings in Gmail. I had checked do not notify me for every message at one point. But to check your situation unchecked that and am getting a good sync
I am experiencing this issue. Gmail just stopped syncing a week ago. It doesn't even check for new emails when I open Gmail app. Only Gmail has sync problem. Other apps including other Google apps don't have any problems. I'm on OnePlus One CM13 nightlies.
Thank god, I'm not alone. This has been happening for a week plus, for me. It's ridiculous. And only on my 5x. Tablet is fine.
I am not having any issues with syncing of Gmail. I am having an issue with getting notified from any inbox that's not my primary inbox (like social and promotions, etc...). When i open gmail and before it refreshes it says i have new emails. I have made sure I have my label Notifications set correctly. This started around December 24th.
Also just noticed this as well I have Light Manager installed and when i get a new email the light will blink informing me I received a new email, but there won't be any notification on the lock screen or in the notification bar. Hopefully Google gets this sorted out

Yeah, it's been flaky for me lately the last couple of weeks. I read on 9 to 5 google about a bug around the do not disturb feature, I wonder if this weirdness is related. I'll be fine for a while, then i'll go hours without syncing until I manually sync. Not sure what's going on.
I fixed the same problem by uninstalling greenify and rebooting.
There's a bug ticket on this:
https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=197805
Star or comment and maybe they'll take the hint.
Been happening to me now for quite some time, even before 6.0.1. Neither Gmail nor Inbox are auto-syncing.

Same problem, only with Inbox. I have to enter the app in order to get it to sync. Starred the bug @plwalsh88 has posted.
Hi guys,
I had the same issue back when I first got my Nexus 5X. I fixed it eventually by factory resting the device. Been great since, no issues. I suggest you guys try the same if you want a possible solution.
Cheers,
Nath
That's what I was thinking... Wonder what rom you guys are running because everything is fine on pure stock. Gmail and everything else syncs without problems.
You may want to go back to a nightly from before Xmas and see if that fixes it. Or read the change log to find out what changed.

I am pure stock. Haven't even rooted or anything. Just taken the two OTAs I've received since I bought the phone back in Oct, putting me on MMB29K now. Waiting to see if anything comes out of the bug ticket before factory resetting... Shouldn't have to do that on a pure stock, unmodified phone.

I dont see that as a reasonable solution

Me neither. But I'm just suggesting it in case you desperately need it fixed. Otherwise feel free to wait and see if Google bother to fix it.

I've had issues with Gmail for over a year and nothing fixed it, I had to use inbox to get any notifications since then. I did notice that I haven't had any inbox notifications in the past week, but my connection hasn't been stable until today so I didn't think about it.
with my nexus 7 close by, i noticed as well that my 5x wasn't syncing gmail properly while having the exact same settings. what seems to have done the in my case was deactivating the battery-optimization for gmail. i have had it like that for almost a week now. mails once again come throug without me entering the app and i have not noticed any difference in the apps energy consumption.
So a couple more comments on this. 1) I read somewhere I believe on the bug post, about turning off the doze feature for GMail might solve the problem. I tried that along with turning it off for Nine(I use that for work Exchange email) 2) I see the problem with Nine also, so it's not just GMail. I'm thinking maybe Doze and ActiveSync aren't playing nice together. I've turned off Doze for both the email applications as of yesterday morning and so far, no issues. Anecdotal unfortunately at this point as It's not a simple repeatable problem to know for sure yet if it's really fixed.
I'm having the same issue. It's definitely the Nexus 5X and not gmail as I have my Nexus 7 with me and it notifies me fine (in fact, that's how I know I have emails most of the time). Not sure what's going on, but it's really getting annoying. I'm desperate enough to try a factory data reset soon.
