Just received my phone from Aliexpress. I removed all of the Baidu references, ASUS store, and Chinese references, etc... then manually added google and updated play store, etc... For some reason, even after adding, removing and re-adding my google account, none of my google contacts will show in the "contacts" app. I confirmed that the check box to sync is checked and it says it succeeds but nothing shows except "me".
Any ideas what's going on there ?
same here

I need this too. Anyone?
You can add another account from almost any Google app (Gmail, Maps, Youtube). Open the app (I used Gmail), slide out the menu from the left and tap on your email address near the top left corner. Then tap on "Add Account"
As for removing, I couldn't find any way other than uninstalling and reinstalling the Play store and all associated services (Services Framework, Play services, Account Manager)
Greetings guys,
I had to reset my phone to defaults this afternoon, so i lost all apps, data and contacts. When i try to sync with my google contacts, i never got all of contacts back, althought i always selected save to google account when i added a new contact on my phone.
It's like some contacts "stuck " to the google account and where synced back, while others didn't.
What could have gone wrong ?
Hi All,
Thanks to this guide, I've been able to install working Google Play Store, Google Play Services, etc. on my AFTV2. I'm able to log into my Google account, and most google apps (Inbox, Drive, Sheets, Keep, Play Music, and Earth) work perfectly.
One exception is Google Hangouts (which requires syncing contacts). The version of Hangouts I've sideloaded is the latest arm64 version from APKMirror. It loads fine, and even lets me send and receive SMS messages. However, contact names do not appear in Hangouts (only phone numbers), and only my most recent contacts appear under the "contacts" tab. Same problem occurs in any older version of the hangouts .apk I've tried.
I suspect that all I've got to do to fix contact syncing is to add the necessary .apks, but I'm not sure where to start.
I attempted to side-load each available version of Google Contacts (1.3, 1.2, and 1.1) and Google Contact Sync (6.0) from APKPure. I can only successfully install Google Contacts 1.3 (the rest are incompatible). It starts, but stalls with the message "Contact list is being updated."
I've searched the forums for the right versions of contacts.apk or google contacts sync, but can't seem to find anything for Android 5.1. Before I try experimenting with older versions, has anyone had any luck with contacts / syncing?
Thanks
To be honest, hangouts is a pain lol.. ive had a number of issues with it in the past on my roms for various devices
THX for your post @vrl2.
I am trying currently to run any android based video call app without success currently.
Did you try video/audio calls?

So when I try to view my linked google accounts my settings crash. It wasn't an issue till someone linked a new account to my phone and now its complaining about log in. It just sits on a blank screen till it says settings has stopped. Other accounts can be motified, just not a google account.
After some detective work and boredom I have figured out that the specific problem I have is related to google service update. Uninstalling all updates from the google service on my phone solved the issue. But I have to have it updated to use inbox. I was able to remove the account however.
Yesterday my device was restarted, I saw message saying the I am signed out of my google account. No matter what I tried to do, it will not allow to sign in. I enter the user name and password correctly, and it seems it is accepted, then I see message the it is checking info, then I see the same login message again over and over.
In other screens when I try to add account from my InBox app, I finally see message that something went wrong. At that time, the other 2 devices (Huawei P10 and HTC One) were working fine.
On HTC One M9, I deleted the data for all Google Related Apps and Service, I removed all Google Related accounts and rebooted but no luck. It won't accept adding google account.
Also, I opened Google Play Services from Setting/Apps, and I uninstalled latest updates, and still won't let me add google account.
Then today morning, I saw the same message on the other two devices HTC One and Huawei P10.
Then I decided to logout my google account from all devices. So I logged in to my GMail on desktop, and signed out from all web sessions. Also, I changed my password. Now I am only able to login to google account from my Huawei P10 after several trials.
Still on my HTC One M9, it won't let me add google account. I will try shortly on my old HTC One as I didn't remove google account on HTC One.
After several trials, I'm able to login to my Google account on two devices (HTC one and Huawei P10)...
It seems it was temporary problem or maybe after I changed password... but HTC ONE M9 still I'm unable to add any Google account...
On HTC ONE M9, I uninstalled recent updates to Google Play Services from settings / Apps as I was trying to solve the problem. Can you help me reinstall the latest version of Google Play Services on HTC ONE M9 as now I'm unable to access Google Play app hopefully this will help me resolve this problem?

I am having the same issue with my HTC One M9. What was the solution?
I can't remember... I'll have to check... If you Google using matching keywords and my name you will find my solution I posted in another forum. I'll try to find it and I'll get back to you.
