Keep getting com.google.process.gapps has stopped while syncing contacts - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989

I have tried syncing my contacts today because I noticed the newest one hasn't shown up on my google account yet, but for some darn reason the phone freezes for a bit and shows "Unfortunately, the process com.google.process.gapps has stopped."
In sync settings I only have Sync Contacts checked, nothing else. If I sync other things I don't have any issues.
When in sync settings and I check and uncheck the box it will sync in 2 seconds, when I sync it again it will do so for 30 seconds, the error will pop up and close itself then stop syncing. In accounts and sync it will freeze for a while and show the popup which I have to close myself.
My phone is rooted running 4.0.3. I also have ~5000 contacts (that includes g+,facebook,numbers,emails)
What can I do to fix this? It's getting on my nerves.

Clear the data for your google contact within settings. See if it helps.

I've cleared data for Google Service Framework, Google Contacts Sync and cleared dalvik cache.
Which one is the Google contacts app? Contacts Storage? Won't clearing it erase all my contacts??

Back up the data first. I had a similar problem before when my contact storage reached over 1 GB, which is bogus, caused by program bug. Clear the storage solved my problem.
Contacts can be back by you're google account, if you have one

That seems to have worked. Thanks!

Help: VZW Galaxy Nexus Contacts and Gmail "Sync is currently experiencing problems"

Help: VZW Galaxy Nexus Contacts and Gmail "Sync is currently experiencing problems"
My new nexus will not sync contacts or gmail. I get the error "Sync is currently experiencing problems. It will be back shortly." I have tried clearing the cache on both apps and restarting the phone, but the error reoccurs. It has synced some contacts (58 of 141). But the error remains, and the rest of the contacts do not appear, even after choosing to display "all contacts".
Can anyone help?

I'm seeing the same thing, though it's only affecting my synched bookmarks. If you go into settings > Accounts & Sync, it'll have an exclamation by the problem child/children. Uncheck whatevers not working and your contacts should finish in theory. I was able to get all my contacts.
Last time I restarted after a cache wipe, contacts gave the error, but gmail synced for a long time before giving the error. This time, contacts again errored right away, but gmail is still syncing. I'm hoping it will finish this time, and then I'll work on getting the contacts to sync.
I've checked the syncing on my other android devices and there are no problems there, so I don't think it's a problem with the servers.
I actually had the same problem when I wiped my touchpad last night. unchecked and rechecked and it started working again.
Well I hope it's temporary, but I'd really like to get it fixed. Does anyone know how long it usually takes to sync gmail? It's been going for over 30 minutes now.
Bump for a fast board, I still need help with this. I just formatted the cache in recovery and the problem came back immediately.
Edit: I deleted my google account and readded it and it seems to be working, sorry for the bump. I hope this helps someone else.
Unfortunately mine is still broken and I've tried everything. Adding it back in doesn't help. I'm using "[email protected] and my email will not synch even though others do. I have other gmail accounts that are synching just fine. What's up Google??? Man this is frustrating; the email account I actually need most is not working.
I just got my wife a Nexus, and I have been getting the sync error, along with a pop-up saying "unfortunately contacts have stopped working". Gmail is working fine, it's just contacts. This started happening after unlocking, rooting, and installing Codename ROM. I'm running Codename on my Nexus without problems. I unrooted, and relocked hers, and it seemed to be fine. Went back to unlocked, rooted, and Codename, and the problem came back. I'm going to try the previous versions of Codename, and Nova Launcher to see if it makes a difference, but if anyone has any more info about this, I'd like to hear about it.
Thanks

One of 3 Gmail accounts causes app to crash.

I have 3 Gmail accounts (well 1 Gmail and 2 Sky mail accounts) on my phone which I access through the Gmail app. They have been working fine but after flashing Paranoid Android and Trinity and reinstalling, one of the accounts (a Sky one) causes Gmail to FC. Everything else works normally so I'm thinking it's not a bad flash of the ROM/kernel.
The other 2 work fine, but on the affected account the inbox and folders show but as soon as I click on an email to read it I get the "Gmail has stopped working" message and the app FC.
I've deleted the account and replaced it and it hasn't helped, the problem persists.
Any thoughts or solutions?
Thanks

Suggestion: Clear app data. Uninstall Gmail, reboot, install it from the market.
Tried that and no joy. Thanks for the suggestion though. Any other ideas?

Gmail account "sync error"

This randomly started a few days ago. My contacts and email seem to be syncing just fine, but my calendar isn't. I've done a clean wipe and re flashed ROMs, but I can't even add my Google account after doing that (can't establish reliable connection, or similar message).
Everything else works fine, so I'm at a loss. I've tried multiple ROMs and gapps and kernels, but nothing fixes it. Could my specific Google account be messed up somehow?
Thanks!

Yep I can browse https without problems. It's weird because email and contacts are syncing even though it shows that error. The bad part is that my calendar won't sync.

I found a possible solution for that trouble, try this and let me know:
1. Turn off sync google calendar
2. got to settings ->apps -> manage apps -> all
3. find calendar storage -> clear cache -> clear
4. find calendar sync (settings-> accounts and sync->click on gmail and turn off sync)
5. Reboot Phone
6. Re-enable Sync

Well I tried it, but unfortunately it didn't help. Also, I have done a completely clean wipe, so it sure seems to be a Google problem. I'm not sure where to go from here.

[Q] gmail calendar won't sync

on my Optimus G in Calendar/settings/accounts when I go to my gmail account the top of the screen has a message "This account is not being synced..." How can I make this happen? I read a suggestion to delete the information in the calendar and let it re-sync, but I don't know how to delete the calendar info. I've gone into gmail calendars on my pc and things seem ok there??? Is there another way to enable the sync?

are you using the power saver features or greenify it has option to turn sync off/hibernate i've noticed sometimes it doesn't reenable them from time to time, try un checking the sync options and can go into settings from the app and mashed sync is clicked

If you have calendar synced (will delete local data): Go to system settings and apps. Click the all tab. Scroll down and find calendar storage clear data and force close. Check calendar/syncing.

unfortunately neither suggestion worked. When I go to the Account & Sync page, Gmail is not listed. I would have expected that. Is this the problem? How do I add Gmail to the sync, or Gmail calendars. My Gmail account actually syncs and pushed mail.
Weird... Gmail should be added to Accounts & Sync when Gmail is installed. I would try uninstalling Gmail entirely and reinstalling.
As for Calendar... as stated above, System Settings>Apps and clear Data on Calendar Storage. This fixed syncing errors for me.
Also, try going into Settings within the Calendar app itself. There you can select which calendars to sync. Maybe all are deselected, so that is the reason for it saying that in Accounts & Sync?

[Q] Gmail notifications and sync after JB update not working

I updated from ICS to rooted JB using DoomLord's method 2 days ago. Since then, Gmail is syncing only very intermittently.
I have Gmail set to sync in my Google account settings, and also in the actual Gmail app's own account setting section, I don't have Extended Standby Mode enabled.
On the few occasions when I have received an email in the app, I've only found it when opening the app itself, as I've not had a notification.
In previous versions, I'd get a Gmail notification immediately if I sent an email from, say, my work PC. Not anymore, though.
Is anyone else having this problem? Has the push Gmail functionality broken in the JB update?
Nope... My Gmail sync works normally..
Have you enabled "Auto Sync data" option in Data Usage settings..?

Yes, I do have "Auto-sync data" enabled in the Data Usage settings.
This is really annoying. Even when I click the Refresh button in the Gmail app, it does not sync the new emails After doing this, and then going into the Account settings for Google, it shows a really old time for Lasy Sync on Gmail.
Any other ideas, anyone?

Wipe? I backed up my apps and wiped the data then restored using titanium backup. No bug except laggy 1080p video recording.
