I flashed the latest stable CM10 last night and the install went flawlessly. however I noticed that my google contacts did not all drop in. I am about 47 people short of what appears on my account when I log in from the computer. Also, I have a galaxy tab 2 running the stock rom and they all drop in no problem there. I have cleared out the contact cache and I even reflashed just to ensure that there was no hang up on my end but nothing works. It was working fine with all contacts dropping in seamlessly when I was running CM9
any help would be greatly appreciated!!

***** UPDATE *****
okay so I came across a nugget of information that is really baffling me even more. I exported all my contacts from my google account and then i cleared out the contacts cache and then disabled sync. then i downloaded the vcard file to my fone and ran an import from there. the confusion part about this is that in the notification bar showed that it was importing 1449 which is the correct number but when the import completes it only shows 1417. this happens also when I sync. i dissected the csv file as well from the google account and i dont really see any major differences.
im probably more confused now than i was before but at least i have a little bit of direction. would anyone know if there is something built into Jelly Bean that would filter out certain types of contacts? thats the only thing i can think of at the moment.
thanks!!!!!!!
anyone???

I have had my HTC Desire (stock 2.1-update1 ROM) for a couple of months now and I'm enjoying all it's features. Especially the integrated Picasa tool. Take a photo, select share, then select Picasa and off you go. Great. Until recently.
Cannot find anyone else with this problem, so hoping someone has some ideas.
When I select the Picasa option for sharing, it brings up the usual Picasa upload options page that I am used to only very briefly (talking 0.5 seconds here) then quickly jumps to a screen asking me to create a google account!!! This is despite my phone sync'd perfectly with my Google account. E-mails pushing though, videos upload to youtube just fine. No sync errors at all.
OK I thought, I'll just sign back in with my existing Google account. Except when I do this, it spends a couple of minutes "signing in" only to then fail telling me that I do not have a network connection! This is despite trying my phone connected to wi-fi both at home, in my office, and whilst using 3G in strong signal area.
I think this all started after I accepted an OTA update taking my software number to 1.21.405.2. but I can't be certain as it was a week or so after updating before I noticed the problem.
I have Picasa Tool app installed, but personally I think its an ugly, badly laid out mess even though it does seem to work. I would rather fix what has happened to stop my phone uploading to Picasa directly.
Can anyone help me?
Thanks in advance.
Sorry, can't help you with this but very interested as I have exactly the same issue. Also, as a google engined phone, why on earth have they made flikr & fb instantly available but not picasa You're right about the picasa tool pro too, functional but aesthetically it leaves a lot to be desired...see what I did there...
I have never used Picasa. But like 2 hours ago, I said why not and wanted to use it. To be greeted with the same problem. The account is active (gmail syncs without problem), everything goes ok... but it doesn't work.
Factory reset fixed it. OK, but not sure what I did to break it in the first place! Oh well.
It didn't work for me either. Yesterday I went from MCR r18 to stock Sense > r17 > r19 > r17 > r18. Suddenly, it got fixed.
You should make sure you actually have a picasa web account, and that you've uploaded at least one photo to it.
Hi all.
Having rooted with unrevoked and made a nandroid backup of my rom, I installed OpenDesire Team's Official Froyo HTC Sense ROM and radio on my phone. It worked well and it's the mod I am going to use. Problem is I don't have the time to set it all up now and reinstall everything and put all my settings as I'd like them since I am going to be on a business trip for the next 2 to 3 weeks. So I did a nandroid restore. All well and OK. Except I could no longer see any of my videos. Always an error telling me Sorry, you cannot play this video or whatnot. I rebooted and immediately after reboot I tried to play the same files. The first one started, then froze, and then all video files gave me the same error. Even files I had recorded with the phone. This went on for a few hours till I remembered the damn radio file. Thinking "it can't be that" I dloaded a previous version from the development section and flashed. Believe it or not, I can now play videos. Crises averted... except it's not.
Today I noticed that my Gmail app isn't syncing anymore. I receive mails in real time (pushed to the device) and can open and read them fine. I can even delete them from the inbox (or so it seems), but when I tried to reply to an email I noticed my mail just sat there saying "sending" in those red / pink letters. I tried to compose a new mail and sending that only to find all my composed mails since I had restored were still sitting in my outbox label / folder. And when I accessed Gmail from my PC's web browser, I found that all the mails I had opened in the Gmail app on the phone were still unopened on the servers. And the deleted ones were still there too, untouched. So it seems my Gmail stopped syncing. And I have already checked the settings. All else is working including calendar and contacts.
I have performed over a dozen restores now and tried all radio files in the forum. Nothing worked.
Does anyone have a solution for this issue? Please!!!!! Very urgent I fix it before leaving tomorrow evening.
I posted this in the MIUI forum, but I still couldn't get it to work, so please no one get pissed for this double post. Here is the problem I am having and I hope someone will be able to help me out. When I check my email on my phone it will still show that I never read it on my computer and visa versa. Also, when I delete an email on my phone it still shows up in my inbox on my computer. It just seems like its not syncing with the server or something. I am running the MIUI ROM 1.1.28 version. It was working perfectly until yesterday. If anyone could help my out, I would really appreciate it!
well i would back up my programs and flash one of my nandroid backups
Context:
Verizon Galaxy Nexus, Stock ROM, Android 4.1.1.
When I check in Settings...Accounts...Google...
It shows a Sync Error for my account. At the bottom of the screen it says:
Sync is currently experiencing problems. It will be back shortly.
If I then click on my [email protected]
All of the entries are checked and properly synced, and up to date, except Contacts. It says 'Last Synced 4/20/2012..."
Despite this, Contact additions or edits that I make on my phone do in fact get synced to my other devices. And Contact additions or edits that I make elsewhere do get synced to my phone.
So, this appears to be a faulty error message. Since everything is working right, I'm reluctant to do anything major to try and clear the message, for fear of actually creating a functional problem. And yet, it bugs me that it's there.
One of the frequently suggested solutions is to go to Settings...Apps...Contacts Storage...
And once there, hit "Clear Data".
So my question is what exactly happens when "Clear Data" is hit? I want to eliminate the potential for inadvertently deleting my contacts overall, don't want to create new problems, etc., so would like a little more information about what this does or doesn't do.
And, if someone has any insight on another way to get rid of this message, that would be appreciated as well.
Thanks!
Anybody have any information here??
Thanks.
Try this
Hi, i face the same problem. After few hrs search in Internet, I found a way to solve it, so far it works.
Go to Google Play and install this apps: Contacts Sync Fix
Run the apps
Go to setting, open Google account and try to sync again.
It should be OK then.
Hope it helps.

Very interesting! Looks like it just came out this month. This is an incredibly common problem, if you read Google's "support" forums, which I find hard to believe how this is such a core function of the whole Google enterprise.
I wonder what this App is doing behind the scenes, or actually how it does it. All of the reviews so far are very positive, although there are only 11 of them at this time. I'll probably monitor this for a bit, and then try it out.
Thanks!
I exchanged a quick email with the Author, and went ahead and installed and ran the Contacts Sync Fix App. It identified a single problem, fixed it, and my error message is now gone, and sync continues to work fine. I went ahead and bought the ad-free version for $.99 - I have no idea if a problem will recur in the future, but I'll now be able to fix it. And besides, he fixed something Google has been unable or unwilling to do!
This solved my same problem

I was browsing my installed Applications and noticed two Google Calendars. Naturally, I wanted to get rid of one. I checked when I last used them and uninstalled the one listing some time in 2008. Turned out to be a mistake. Since then the Calendar force closed without error message on me when I tried changing into Appointment Overview (or whatever it may be called in English). In trying to rectify my mistake I first uninstalled and reinstalled the Application and when that didn't work I uninstalled everything even remotely associated with Calendars. Including Calendar Storage and Calendar Sync App. Really should not have done that.
I tried to install the Application again but it is still force closing and on top of it now i obviously cannot sync anything any longer.
I would really like to avoid flashing and was hoping someone over here would be kind enough to help me out.
I am obviously using a Galaxy Nexus with CM 10.1-20130411-EXPERIMENTAL-maguro-m3 and 3.0.7.1.-leanKernel-6.3.1-05165-g0f0c8df
Thanks alot!
Reflash the rom, kernel, and gapps package. That will replace the missing system apps.

Well, that was significantly less hustle than I expected and it worked admirably. Thank you very much not only for your expertise but also for your swiftness and the general lack of "you stupid noob, you are the reason for carrier locked bootloaders".
Cheers!
