I've been hearing reports that google has been having sync issues even on different devices fwiw. I've noticed google plus does this for me on several different Roms even aosp based. I don't even use g+ if that matters. Just trying to save you some time with a rebase is all.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] andybones:
Thanks for this, Sir.

I also don't use Google+ on the accpuy giving me error. Do you just not use it, or did you delete it from yourgmail? I literally ddon't have it activated, maybe that could be it?
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] disconnecktie:
Well I don't use it at all but it still tries syncing still on a lot of different Roms. I usually delete the app and any of the google apps that I don't use to prevent them from even getting to sync. Some of you may try that for any that you don't use or disable the sync in the settings to keep them from using up your battery.

Also is it possible to add the Mail or Email app without the security..man I hate having to enter pin every freaking time to unlock the phone..it jus spoils the fun for me .. Thanks for the great Rom Andy.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] murtaza217:
for what its worth. before i flashed this I was on Nusense6_MAX, and I was getting the same sync error on that (sync error on contacts). similarly, it would work if i checked/unchecked, and then the '!' comes back
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] disconnecktie:
Have you tried removing any apps that you have issues syncing and then installing them again? Sometimes that helps.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] andybones:
From the reports I've read and also from my buddies as well, it seems that this Google is an issue across the board. Hopefully they will get it figured out soon!

In the meantime, it seems that checking and unchecking will bring it back, usually it takes about 3 check/unckecks for me. lol

How is the ROM running for everyone??

I apologize, but I have to revisit the Google Sync issue. I'm still having the error and while it seems that my emails are coming in, I can't risk there being a longer delay.

If I flash the stock 4.10.605.3 ROM available here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2485319, I don't get the Google Sync issue.

Are we sure that emails are still being pushed immediately, even with the error? I'm not convinced that Google would let an issue like this go on for so long.

Thanks!
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] andybones:
Give the stock ROM long enough you'll get the Google sync issue. It's a Google issue, many are posting issues across many devices.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] brymaster5000:
That's on ecliptic and caused by the sync issue. Look at my awake time versus battery time. You're not the only one and it isn't a Rom thing...purely Google...

[Verizon HTC One (M7)] tcwota:
I'm having a problem with Google Now and am wondering if it's me, the ROM, Google Now, or what.

So I download Google Search and try to do a voice command to call or text someone in my contacts. It cannot find the contact (also, when I click on the resulting "Pick contact" and then select the contact from my People, it just goes back to the previous screen like I didn't do anything). When I go to Google Settings and "Search & Now," and "Phone search," there are no options. I'm sure this is the problem, as it's not searching my phone/contacts when I give it the command. I know there should be options/checkboxes on this option screen, but there are none.

Anybody?

Edit: It does appear to be a ROM issue, as I flashed Santod's new stock rom and the correct options are available under "phone search."
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] eudoxia:
Having the same problem here. Clean flashed a couple of times and Google Now doesn't find contact nor has any options in the settings.

Restored backup of previous Bonestock and Google Now search works great and no Google account sync errors like it worked before.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] andybones:
Sorry about Google search issue will look into that. As for sync, I'm baffled. It's working now for me but it does seem to an issue that many are seeing and I just don't know if it's ROM or Google. I didn't change anything to do this. I will have an update out soon that hopefully fixes some things
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] mperson007:
Great ROM! Been running it since the 7th with no issues. Hope you're planning on further development of this ROM. Thanks for your hard work!
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] isdnmatt:
Thanks! Any ETA on the update? Something is definitely wrong with sync (I'm still leaning towards the ROM), emails aren't coming in immediately and some are getting stuck in the outbox, google voice isn't notifying me of new voicemails until I manually refresh.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] hawknest:
I doubt it's the Rom, As it's based on stock.

Post a screen of Settings/Power/Usage please

I know this is Andy's build but we're a team

Also are you using greenify or titanium to freeze anything ?

Oh and ETA's are a no no lol ?

Lunar Powered EclipticONE
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] isdnmatt:
As requested. I posted earlier that I don't have the problem on the stock ROM, but the bloat is just unbearable. Nothing frozen in titanium. Didn't even use it to restore anything after the last time I tried the stock ROM.

EDIT: Updated for images not showing
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] andybones:
It's hard for me to diagnose a Google situation, when only some people are having it, and then reading that people are also having the same issues on phones like Samsung at the same time, make it hard to say ROM, or Google issue.

I will do some tests though, and see if I can get this error on my phone, as it's working fine for me, or if others can comment on it, then we can confirm it.

I am not sure what could really be causing this issue to be perfectly honest.

If I find it present, I will see if I can find any differences in the stock ROM (which this ROM is based off of as it is)

The next best thing I could do is remove Aroma, make this a very stock ROM debloated and offer what I removed into a .zip (this will only happen if I find an issue within my Aroma scripting that is somehow causing a Google error)

I am short on time these day, and I apologize if you are having any issues.

Please do report any Google error (or others) if you come across any, thank you.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] hawknest:
Post these screens please

Lunar Powered EclipticONE
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] isdnmatt:
Here are the screen shots you requested. You can see that they haven't synced since the last time I forced them. Auto sync is set to ON. Last account is my main backup account.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] andybones:
When is the last time you tried full wiping the ROM? I think you should do a full clean wipe and you will be surprised with the results. (Or maybe wipe cache for like everything, all Google stuff, that may work). Before I released the ROM I was aware of the Google error, I marked it down to first it being my phone, as I had just re-activated my M7 from the M8. I couldn't get it to go away, I kept clean flashing, wiping cache, nothing. Then I found out it was a Google wipe error.

I just did a clean wipe expecting to see this error after seeing your screen shots and how I am familiar with this issue.

Although, after 3 clean wipes, I cannot get the error to come, and I have to mark this as resolved.

Please do a clean full wipe, and sign into Google during the set-up and let it sync your phone without touching or setting up anything and you should be fine. Before I would get the error when I manually synced using the quick settings Sync All Toggle, as per the screen shots below you can see that is no longer an issue.

I hope that a clean wipe resolves this once and for all for you.

[Verizon HTC One (M7)] isdnmatt:
I would love for this to be the case. I will try a wipe, it just takes so dang long to get everything set up again and I rely on my phone heavily for work. Thanks for sticking with this. I will report back in a day or two.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] andybones:
Very welcome. After my new testing today I am almost 100% positive that any Google Sync error issues will be resolved with a clean wipe.

I understand not wanting to fresh wipe, I never do, but when rooting and flashing custom ROMs, it's a given that it will be needed at times, especially with this new release considering it jumped from Sense 5.5 to Sense 6.0.

I do all testing personally so I can actually get my phone set up on a fresh wipe within 15 minutes.

My suggestion?

Make a nandroid backup.

Flash the ROM fresh. Confirm that Google error is not present, if so, start setting things up.. if need be make another nandroid, and go back to the previous said nandroid until you have time to go back to fresh working ROM to finish setting up.

-----------------------------------------------------------------

Can anyone else confirm or deny that Google Sync is working correctly or if you also have the red error sync icon.

All feedback is welcomed and appreciated.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] brymaster5000:
Running ecliptic. You can see the battery drain slow down after I wake my phone this morning and Google is able to sync up. Look at it controlling my usage. I still have great life, but Google is causing these issues...not your Rom bud.

Hey guys, just checking in, how is the ROM running for everyone?

[Verizon HTC One (M7)] yoshway:
Just flashed yesterday, it's running awesome for me and battery life is way better than it was for me on other roms. Never should have left bonestock!
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] coled91:
Still running 3.1 over here which has been awesome with no issues! Waiting for 4.1 so I don't have to wipe twice lol
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] andybones:
If waiting for v4.1 I would flash v4.0.

v4.1 won't be out for a bit and it will be a flash over v4.0 anyway. :)

The only thing needed is to flash the paid market apps fix found in post #3 add-on section after v4.0 is booted once.. Or add the file from the .zip into the ROM before flashing.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] coled91:
All I needed to hear! I'll probably take the plunge and flash tomorrow after work. Thanks for the great ROM ive been running your stuff since I got my One.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] steveg545:
Coming from a completely clean flash (I always fully wipe my device before flashing) , I seem to have the same sort of syncing issue that some others have discussed.

The odd thing is, all my data seems to come through, so I'm not sure that the error message is pointing to an actual error.

Thanks to Andy for his great work :)
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] major_works:
I haven't tried BoneStock for a long while so I thought I'd flash 4.0 for a test drive. One thing that's puzzling to me is what I could have done to prevent any social media stuff from being an option in Blinkfeed. When I open the menu to select Services & Apps, all that shows up there is Calendar, Restaurant Recommendations, and Zoe.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] andybones:
I think this is from not picking twitter/Facebook in aroma. I may have removed those, sorry, will add back for v4.1 and try and release soon.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] andybones:

Love it when I come to the forum to ask about an issue I'm having only to find out it's already been fixed with the latest update. Re: installing paid apps. You rock, Andy! A few beers coming your way shortly. :highfive:
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] isdnmatt:
I'm still having this issue. I did as Andy said and wiped the phone completely (3 times just to be sure) and didn't do anything but add my gmail account. It immediately came up with the sync error. Before I did this, I was not getting my emails being pushed for all the synced accounts. I got an angry call from my boss yesterday and why I haven't answered his emails for the past two days! Sure enough, I forced a sync in gmail for my work email and 25 emails came through for the past 2 days. Something is definitely wrong with the ROM. I cannot believe that Google would leave an issue like this on going (especially for my work account which we pay for as part of Google Apps for Business).

Please help.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] brymaster5000:
Flash another Rom... See if it happens. If it does, it's Google. If not, it's the Rom. If it's the Rom, please restore bonestock start grabbing a log cat and try syncing to capture the error. I'm not sure Andy will be able to debug unless you follow that order. Thanks.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] isdnmatt:
I have already flashed the Stock debloated ROM from santoad that I linked earlier in the thread. There was no problem with that ROM. Andy said that it would happen eventually, but it never did. Is there a link on instructions on taking the log cat and the file locations?

The error happens immediately for me. I even tried not adding the account during intial setup and going in later and adding the account. As soon as I finish adding the account, it says error, then it will sync for 15 minutes and the error remains.

I really don't want to move to another ROM as it has the perfect combination of added features and debloating.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] brymaster5000:
The best way imo is to use monitor. It comes with the Android sdk you use for adb. You should see it in the tools folder. It gives real time logging and you can simply go about your business, then copy the text.

Otherwise, adb logcat -v long > "folder address to save to"/log.txt

Let it run, do your thing, then hit Ctrl C to stop the logging. Then post the txt file.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] andybones:
I'm not saying this isn't a ROM issue nor an issue you aren't having.. Just one that is quite difficult to diagnose. Initially, I also had the error, as Google was having issues, so yes I said that the issue should also happen on the stock ROM.. The problem now is that right now you and only 1 other member is having this issue, so now, it may not be a ROM issue and actually could be a problem with your Google account. Do you mind making a dummy account and trying that for the very first account on a clean flash, do no use any of your normal accounts and see if you have the issue, if not, then it's a problem with your account. Google has some steps to try, like exporting your contacts, deleting them, then re importing them. I am not saying this is the case, just an option, as I also had the error sync issue but it went away.

A logcat will also be needed as this ROM and stock ROM, if you diff them, there is nothing that would be causing this. Do you know what is causing the error, if you click your account it should have a red error next to either contacts, or calendar usually. For me it was the contacts and simply checking the check for auto sync on then off then on then off then on, the sync error went away, and I haven't seen it since. I've read of people having calendar error sync and downloading google calendar or google contacts from the play store and that fixed things, can you try this?

I apologize for this inconvenience I honestly don't know what to do as I combed the entire ROM and couldn't find anything :confused:

My hangouts is adrellos42@gmail.com if u want to add me maybe we can brainstorm.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] ghilliek9:
Probably not going to help much but I had similar issue long time ago and it was due to my email. I had to log into my email account on my computer and it stopped but that had nothing to do with any of the ROMs. Also did it once because of the back up. Try another email account just to confirm that it's not the ROM

Edit: I see Andy has already suggested another email account
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] andybones:
Any input is helpful, thank you my friend.

If you Google Auto sync issues for HTC One, you can find some threads with some good suggestions, it's what I did for awhile when I had this issue, I suggest trying them as well, like this thread has some good suggestions: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2473612

so is sync working correctly for everyone else? It's just isdnmatt ? :(
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] ghilliek9:
I installed 4.1 last night and no issues thus far
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] andybones:
can you do me a favor?

add the Sync All icon into your toggles along with screenshot.

go into settings > accounts

then pull down and press the sync all button, and get a screen shot of the accounts while it's syncing and then one once it's done syncing showing that you have no sync errors please.

basically just like this:

This will help show others that sync is not an issue and hopefully doesn't scare away new users :)

[Verizon HTC One (M7)] ghilliek9:
Here you go [MENTION=413241]isdnmatt[/MENTION]

One shows that I have two accounts....

Next shows pre-sync so that one is before I hit Sync All

Then during Sync All so you can see that everything is syncing...

last one is post sync so after everything has synced it just stops and no issues at all...it's gotta be your account ....it must have some glitch. Like Andy said, create a new one and try it on a clean install....You can also see my WiFi signal and see that there is no incoming/outgoing traffic in the post sync one so obviously it is not doing anything.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] andybones:
Much appreciated, Sir. This was more for new users though. Isdnmatt is having sync errors I just can't give an explanation why but I wanted new users to be sure that they don't have to worry about sync and is not a bug.

[Verizon HTC One (M7)] tcwota:
I switched to Santod's debloated because of the issue with Google Now searching that I discussed a week or two ago. On Santod's debloated, I have two google accounts on my phone and Gmail was not syncing the mail for either. When I would go to Settings -- Accounts and Sync -- Google, there were no indications that things weren't working, and when I clicked on an account to see the list of Sync'd things, it would say that Gmail had been sync'd recently when in fact there was nothing to suggest that was the case. This had been the case for the last couple weeks and I just figured it was google's problem and it would clear up eventually. Well yesterday I went back to those settings and to the list of things to be sync'd and I unchecked Gmail and then rechecked it, for both accounts, and immediately that fixed my problem. Gmail is now pushing my mail and syncing automatically. For what it's worth.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] andybones:
Sorry about the Google Now issue, the only thing I can possibly think of as the reason is because I removed it from the ROM, reason being you can download it in play store. but this may be the issue. If you don't mind and want to try this ROM, just add in the Velvet.apk from Santod's debloated ROM into my ROM before flashing and see if it works(add into system/priv-app folder). I can upload ROM with it in for you to try but it'll take a bit to upload, but if you will test I'll do it.

Thank you for this input, it does make a lot of sense because one main fix to the Google Sync error was to simply check and unckeck the problem which was calendar and contacts. then simply contacts. then eventually solved just from tick and un tick (or Google's end fixing it lol)
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] disconnecktie:
It does sound like google now not being in the ROM from the start is the problem you're having. Since it is apart of the setup process in the stock ROM it may need to be in their to continue to work properly. Just a thought.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] tcwota:
Sure, I'll give that a try. Let me make a backup and I'll try it later today and report back with my results. edit: I mean I'll do it myself, not that I need you to send me the ROM. Getting ready to flash now...
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] tcwota:
No luck. Still an empty list under "Phone Search" in the Google settings after adding Santod's Velvet.apk to your ROM.

In addition, I immediately got the "Sync error" with the red circle for my google account. Unchecking and rechecking "Mail" was no help, and a test message I sent to my gmail wasn't even showing up in the Gmail app even after manually refreshing (but it was showing up on my Gmail on my computer, so I know it had arrived).

Gonna stick with Santod for now, but I love ya, Andy, and let me know if there's anything else I can try.

(sidenote: Do you have any idea where the pesky roaming triangle icon is at? I'd love to turn it transparent but I'm not seeing it in the framework apk)
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] andybones:
Not a competition, if you find a better result elsewhere, I am happy for you.

As for Google Error, I am still not convinced it is the ROM..

Sorry to those having this issue.

I will continue to try and help a find the cause but am out of ideas.
