I was just trying to sync google contacts on my phone and its telling me "sync is currently experiencing problems. It will be back shortly."
i did flash a new Rom yesterday but i have never had this issue before, can someone chime in and let me know what may be going on?

what rom? how did you flash it? is this happening over 3g or wifi?

It has nothing to do with the ROM, Wifi, 4G or 3G...its just some thing that has been an issue since the EVO came out. It will tell you it is having issues and "will be back shortly" but when you're not looking, it will sync everything. I had the same problem and over the course of a few days - when I logged onto google - it had my contacts all loaded up - I was confused at first being that I saw the same msg you are seeing, but rest assured - its still working... Test it out and see in a few days if they have been up loaded or not, you have to log into google thru your PC to see your contacts though...

hey everyone, i'm new to this whole rooting thing, and i havent seen any threads regarding problems yet, so i thought it might be useful to start one.
i dont know if i'm the only one experiencing this, but ever since i've rooted (stock tmobile rom, didnt touch the eng build or slidemeroot rom), i've experienced a major problem. i wiped my phone to factory settings prior to rooting to try to get it to root properly, and ever since rooting, i'm unable to sync my contacts saved on the tmobile website to my phone. syncing the weather, gmail, yahoo mail, and facebook all work perfectly, but sycning my tmobile account just isnt working.
it might be a server problem with tmobile, but is anyone else experiencing this? or maybe other problems?
normally i'd post this kind of problem somewhere like the tmobile forums, but i looked through there and nobody else has posted about any similar problem.
it's a tmobile issue.
My phone was doing this prior to rooting.
T-Mo fails at sync... I'd use Google to store contacts. Keep it in the cloud and those with the know how = Google.
lol
Its not fair to blame the mob... especially since YOU rooted your phone... they cant guarantee itll work if you change settings and the phone in general... come on now... I bet if you un-root and revert to stock itll work fine...
Lots of other people are having the sync issue that arent rooted.
There are threads on the official tmobile board.
And this has been going on with my phone since monday, prior to root.
In fact, if you log into your mytmobile account and go to the contacts page, you can see it hanging there trying to sync, it will eventually timeout and tell you its server error.

done and done. didnt realize this was a recurring problem with tmobile.
just to clear things up, i wasnt blaming anyone, i just thought it was strange that i was syncing fine until i rooted. i spoke too soon.
That always happens to me after every reboot. I have to check and uncheck tmo contacts or sync will continue forever. The best way is use gmail contacts and remove all myfavs and it will stop syncing forever. Yeah, all and all tmobile contacts suck. Why even use them? Google works better anyways. And you can always bkup to sim.

Anybody with enough guts to delete their facebook sync account on their evo, reboot, then readd the account to see if their facebook contacts sync?

Already tried it about 5 times with no luck. I read elsewhere that it's a FB server issue.
Mine worked before I rooted, installed CM6 and then reverted back to stock 1.47 rooted image.
good to know. i spent HOURS trying to figure it out. now i have to reroot my phone becaue i unrooted trying to fix this ****.
I've been having issues with it all day and I'm on an unrooted rom. I deleted my facebook several times and even data wiped my phone trying to get it to work, all with no avail.
I have been going crazy about this also, trying numerous methods I found on Google. None of which worked. The weird part is it pulls my profile info from facebook, but nothing else, is that the same issue you all are having also?
It's definitely an issue on FB side (FB servers). Guys on Crackberry.com are having the same issues. It's not android specific.

yup same here. my profile is there fully.
Anyone else having this problem?
I cleaned up my contact list, which seems to be the issue i read on another website, and flashed Skyraider rom to my phone. noticed i wasn't getting msg, so i went back to stock, same issue.
I can get msg both ways from my pc, or other programs, which makes it that much more weird.
Just wondering if any of your guys had this issue, and if so, how did you resolve?

Have you cleared the data and cache in the application settings? I've seen odd issues happen with Gmail that are fixed by doing that after installing different ROMs.

Issue with Google. check below for more info if your effected by this issue.

I just noticed the other day that gmail was no longer pushing new mail, so I attempted to manually sync, but nothing at all happened. My phone is telling me "Sync is currently experiencing problems. It will be back shortly." Its been saying that for almost a week.
I also noticed that when I try to download from the Market, it hangs at "Starting Download..." and does nothing at all.
When I try to open Gtalk it immediately force-closes.
I've been trying to find the solution to this for about four or five days, and I really don't want to have to do a factory reset. I figure that these incidents are all related, but cannot for the life of me find out how to fix it.
If you know anything about this and can, please help! Running rooted stock 2.2 rom. clockwork recovery.
I don't know about the gmail issues but I had a few problems with the market too. What fixed it for me was trying it again when I'm connected to wifi with a strong network. It flys when I did it that way.
Did you try deleting gtalk? then reinstall
I want to, but unfortunately uninstall isn't even an option for gtalk since it is a part of android.
Hello, not sure if this is a known issue, but i am noticing an issue when i look at my google accounts in settings. I have a galaxy s3 running cm10.1 and for the last few months it has said there has been a sync error in settings when i look at my google account. At the bottom of the page, it also says "sync is currently experiencing problems. It will be back shortly". Does anyone know what may be causing this, or how to fix it?
Thanks and have a good one.

As it been doing this on every update?
Or better question, when is the last time you updated? And when is the last time you've done a clean flash?
