so i'm having a problem with syncing the internet on my gs3... any help?
basically whenever i go to sync all in the google account, it says "sync is currently experiencing problems, it will be back later" but it never works... it has never worked for me that i can remember. i want to be able to have my open tabs and my bookmarks etc come up on my phone from desktop and vice versa... i'm using the chrome browser if that matters, but i don't think it has worked with the stock browser either.
any help? thanks

so i downloaded the chrome beta that was released to market a few days ago on my prime and galaxy nexus..
i also use the chrome browser on my pc..
my question is that i use the sign in to chrome to sync the data i want (bookmarks and auto fill, etc)...but when i go to "other devices" on my prime, i only see the galaxy nexus..and vice versa. i don't see my chrome browser on other devices, nor are the bookmarks sent from the chrome pc browser to the g nexus or the prime...
am i doing something wrong? is syncing possible natively? (yes, i am logged in on my pc chrome as well..)
thanks!
I had a similar issue. I went into the sync settings in chrome on my pc and clicked "use default settings" Everything synced immediately.
It took a bit for the bookmarks to sync and a restart for the open tabs to sync for me. Make sure what you want synced is checked in the options as well.
thanks for the suggestion..i'll try checking the "sync everything" to see if it makes a difference...and then use the second suggestion and give it time..hehe
but yes, i have "sync everything" on my tablet and phone..and bookmarks and persona data on my pc...
i guess i should try to clear the data and restart the app...it's just odd that the pc browser is the only one that doesn't show up while the others do, no matter the order..hmm..

I am currently running an FC07 rom and under the Google sync settings there is one called Sync internet. This always fails. What exactly does that sync?
The complete internet .....lol
Your bookmarks....

That is what I thought but it gives me an error every time even though the bookmarks have been synced

Internet Sync
This works with your Google+ account. It will sync your pictures from there. They took away Facebook sync because it was a violation to Android TOS.
the solution is here

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
its the sync settings in chrome!
In google chrome settings via a computer, There is a hyperlink to google dashboard. Go there and down to Chrome Sync, Reset and delete chrome data. Then in Chrome settings reset sync and do NOT set it to "encrypt all data" just use the fist option "encrypt with password",
Problem fixed.
just to clarify...
It syncs your open tabs in cromebrowser as well as your bookmarks cross platforms... so from every device you run chrome browser on and are logged in to your account.
ps. would like to know if my posts helped.... reporting back or a thank you would be appreciated.
Hi There.
I have problems syncing bookmarks from chrome to ics browser.
When i set it up, it syncs just fine, but after that, any changes i made in google chrome dont get sync to ics browser. I see the icon rotating i settings, but nothing changes.
I tried the trick to clear google dashboard and so on, didnt help.
Tried changing roms, didnt help.
Its the same every time, it only syncs one time, then no matter what i do, it dont work.
On good ideas ?
I have the same problem even when I was stock. I use GBookmark app to sync
my bookmarks

Hi guys, I'm having problem Syncing Bookmark between my GNexus with PA 2.99 and Chrome for Windows.
The tab just can't sync it, and it's quite annoying... The fact is that sync bookmarks works like a charm with Chrome for Android, but nothing at all with the stock ICS browser... I would use chrome, but I really need flash for browsing
I checked on settings/account and sync/google account and i found the source of the problem: it seems that the sync function has stop working, in fact there's a "sync is currently experiencing problems. it will be back shortly". But the "shortly" has last a moth now!!!
I've tried to delete the google account and log in again, but still not working... So I tought it was a chrome for windows problem, I whent to google dashboard and deleted the sync setting from there... but still not working.
The problem occur even with my GTab 7.7 P6800 with SkyHigh 3.6!!!
So I'm guessing that the problem is not on the GTab, but in my google account...
Hi, I just recently purchased the HTC One from Verizon and everything seems to be working fine, except the Facebook blinkfeed. When I go to use my Facebook account my contacts and live feed sync okay but my calendar doesn't. It says that sync is currently available and to try again, and I also get authorization problem at the top of the screen. Well if I drop down the menu and click on the authorization problem, it tries to bring up facebook for a second and then close out. I then had a friend try his Facebook account and everything works fine, no issues with Facebook syncing and his posts from Facebook shows up on the main blinkfeed. So what am I overlooking here? I went into the local verizon to see if it was just my phone that might be bad, but I tried syncing up my facebook at the store and it also had the same issues.
I've tried removing my account, changing passwords, changing my email address I use to log in, I even done a factory reset with data wipe nothing works. Hopefully someone here might have experienced the same issue and knows where to try to fix it.
Thanks..
