ok, i have been trying all morning to sync my phonebook to google... for some strange unknown reason it only syncs the contacts from 'C' - 'Z'!?!?
Why will it not sync the 'A' - 'C'?
I have went into the applications and cleared the contact sync data aswell but still cannot understand this.
Anyone any idea?
I had a similar problem, though I couldn't see which contacts got synced and which not. Solved by restoring phone to defaults (while rooting, formatting and installing Revolution HD).
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
I recently installed revolution rom 5.0 but gmail sync was working fine then all of a sudden this morning I stopped recieving emails in the gmail app, I have to actualy open the app and hit refresh to get my emails, all the settings are correctly configured and I already tried deleting cache, removing account, etc.
Any idea if this may be a gmail server issue instead?
Besides my Google accounts not syncing I can not get any calanders to work. I have tried removing the accounts and reinstalling them and no joy. Tried force sync. In setting when I try syncing then I get "Sync is currently experiencing problems. It will return shortly." This has been going on for 2 days. Any suggestions?
Just noticed my OP3 has an issue where gmail notifications don't fire up the notification LED :crying:
Others are suffering the same. Tried unistalling and reinstalling, clear gmail cache and data but the problem persists. From what I gather, its just Gmail that has this issue as outlook and text messages work fine.
