Google Sync / Android Market Issues - Nexus One General

Anyone else experiencing the following issues:
1. When attempting to download a Market app, error message states the download was unsuccessful and try again.
2. GMail doesn't appear to be synching - have to manually refresh to check for mail. Read messages are not synched to web-based Gmail app (they will still show as unread).
For me, this all started yesterday evening.
Thanks - P

same here, Also I cant use Gtalk either on mobile, gmail, windows, linux, gtalk, pidgin... anything :S! Maybe something is ****ed up with our G accounts.

Having the same problem

From the plethora of posts on Google's Android Market support forum, it appears limited to certain accounts, albeit an issue on Google's end. Sure hope it's addressed soon.

To log the issue with google post here
It would seem that they have acknowledged the issue and are looking into it - Talk, Market and Gmail sync all don't work since 4/22/10

Looks like it working again.
I unistalled the market app and then reinstalled it, shortly after it started working again woo hoo

Facebook update causes TouchFlo Restarts

Every time I update Facebook in Updates and Events it restarts TouchFlo. I've run into this problem before... After a hardware restart it fixed it but i'm sure there has to be a way to fix this. I have tried undoing anything I've done before this problem occured... But I've changed nor done anything... It just happen, any help will appreciated.

WE could really use some more info. Rom, OS version, Things of this type will most likely get you some answers
ROM version: 1.19.661.3 "Stock ROM"
Windows Mobile 6.1
Carrier: Telus "CDMA"
It seems i've fixed the problem, well more like it fixed it self, I took one of my contacts off the facebook link and it seems the crashing has stoped. It just seems weird to me that it would do that, would like to know the real reason behind this. Maybe there's a limit of contacts you can have linked to Facebook
Now that we're speaking of facebook on the TP2, does anyone know how to chat on facebook similar to the iphone app?
Ok, my reply is two fold....
@TeamSir
I ran into the same problem. I took a bit of a different route, though... It only seemed to crash on me when I updated from within the address book editing screen (not always, but often). On the Status Tab (Third or forth tab when in Address book, or viewing a contact), when I've updated from there, I haven't had any problems. Weird, but who knows.... Also noticed that if they Contact in the address book is exactly like it is on facebook, it automatically (after confirmation) sets everything up for you.
@Cacaman123 There isn't a way to "chat" through this integrated facebook feature. There are, however two options for you to look into.
Option #1
There is a Facebook App on the Microsoft website. Go to http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile. If you haven't already, sign up for an account (it's worth it, trust me... free apps and games, some of them pretty good too, some are demos, too). Once in there, arrow over "Free Extras" then click on "Games, Software, and More." From there, under the "Software and Services" side of the list, click "See all >" and on the next page there should be a facebook app. This app allows you to check friends status', update your own, check your messages, reply, and, as an added bonus, if any of your friends have their Phone number on FB, you can access it through the tab and call them directly from the app, through your phone.
Downfall: No Chat app. You are not allowed to do direct Facebook Chatting, you can send and receive messages, but no chatting.
Option #2
Palringo - Here is an app that I've been using for a long time. Bottom line, it's a multi service chatting program. You do have to sign up for an account (completely free), but after that, you can access any account of yours on the following networks:
* Windows Live Messenger ® (MSN)
* AOL ® Instant Messenger (AIM)
* Yahoo! ® Messenger
* Google Talk ™
* ICQ ®
* Jabber ®
* iChat® / MobileMe ®
* Gadu-Gadu ®
* Facebook Chat (Alpha)
With this program, you can chat directly with your friends on facebook.
Downfall: Chatting is the only thing you can do with facebook and this app.
I do hope this helps...

My problem was the same, I was using the intergraded Facebook, crashed everytime I update in the address book editing screen. As soon as I took one of my contacts off of the link with facebook it started to work... But then everytime I open up File Explorer it would hang on loading "The last folder I tried to view was My Device\Windows". Couldn't even change which folder I was viewing, so with much frustration I turned to Hardware reset.
I deleted the "FacebookInfo" file in My Device folder, and it started working again.

Facebook Help: Help: An error had occurred while fetching data [null]

All of a sudden I got "An error had occurred while fetching data [null]" every time I want to see my live feed and my own profile from my Nexus One phone (stock Facebook app). I have no problem accessing it from the browser or PC.
Strange thing though, when i log out, then re-login using OTHER facebook account, I can see the live feed and the profile page no problem. Everything works fine again.
However, once i login using MY account, problem starts again.
I have hard reset my N1, problem still there.
Any idea? Please help.
I like the stock Facebook app on N1, don't really want to install another app or use browser to access it.
Oh and my N1 is stock, no root yet.
Thank you
Calm down and take a deep breath I have the same problem. It is not your phone it is facebook server. I had the problem yesterday shortly and today in the morning. Now it seems ok for me...wait until they repair the problem and use the browser application in the meantime...
i had the same issue also, mine seems to be working now though.
so server related not my phone?
phew...
mine still isn't working though
still not working? dang, just give it some time, mine was out a good 6-7 hours
I've had this issue on the Desire ROM where the live feed on the Friend Stream just refuses to update... I was "locked out" for a few days.
strange, it wasn't working for a while until u put the facebook widget on my home. click on the facebook icon, then ta-da! all working again.
Not sure if it was a coincidence...
It's a problem with some 3rd party apps that push data to your facebook feed and the client's interpretation of the XML. Zynga apps being one of them.
You can experiment by hiding various 3rd party apps form your facebook feed (or logging in when you get the error on a computer and seeing what apps were there and not on your phone).
Once they're hidden (or, over time as they pass further down the history list) your feed will work fine.
i don't play games on facebook, nor have i allow any games to be on my profile.
strange, but it works ok now.
Not just games this can be form ANY third party app that has an illegal character in it....this includes quizes, "who visited your profile", horoscopes, any of those things, anything that is not a pure-facebook update.
Same problem here on htc desire S. On wifi all is ok. On 3g ''An error had occurred while fetching data (null.)'' This is very strange.

Facebook Push Notifications FIXED!!!

After doing some research on Google I stumbled upon this page that explains that having "Facebook for Blackberry Smartphones" in your app list on Facebook your push notifications will work. So I found someone who still uses a Blackberry (wasnt easy) and all I had to do was log into my Facebook on their phone and enable notifications and wait for my news feed to load. Then I just logged out. Went on my computer and sure enough the "Facebook for Blackberry Smartphones" appeared in my App list under account settings. Then on my EVO I just cleared the Facebook app data and logged in again and sure enough my Push Notifications were working. I have cleared the data before and it never worked so I dont know why having the Blackberry thing makes it work but it has for me. No more flooding my gmail inbox with Facebook crap... Please feel free to try this and post if it works for you.

[Q] Google account sign-in error but sync still working

I have this weird error on my stock P6800. When doing a sync with my google account, I get a Google sign-in error and need to enter my password. My password is not accepted, although in my I9100 it works fine.
Even with this google sign-in error, I am still getting my contacts, gmail, drive, calendar and g+ correctly synced ..... it's that annoying little triangle error that bugs me.
Tried to uncheck items to sync but still getting that error. Anybody else having this before I wipe everything to factory?
Same thing happened since yesterday. It started just after updating the new G+ apps. I thought it was due to my fiddling with 2-step authentication setup, but nope, that wasn't it. Tried reset/reinstall everything. Also tried changing new password. Same thing happened again after installing with the new G+.
I just turned off background sync for G+ (and leave other google apps as-is), and it seems did the trick to stop the error popping up. This is not exactly an answer, but simply a temporary workaround until google comes up with update to fix.
(This problem is not limited to any particular brand of android phone or tablet. Do a google search on "google sign-in error" and you may find many incident mushrooming in past day or so.)
I tried turning off sync, one item at a time. Still having that sign-in error. This is definitely affecting not all since my stock I9100 with the very same account and sets of google apps does not give the sign-in error.
Same problem here too and Problem started yesterday night here in KL. I'm using an HTC Incredible S btw.
It's getting really annoying now so hopefully Google will get it fixed ASAP.
Same here since yesterday.

+1 ....and I'm just ignoring it; but it is a nuisance having to clear the notification. Happened about 3 or 4 times in last 2 days.

I'm having the same. Had a few updates from Google and after that it started. Except from the notification still works so am ignoring it.
I think it's Firefox Sync problem
I think the problem is with the new Firefox Sync
he he I do not have Firefox on my Lenovo K800 but I still have the problem
Same here, since last night. Constant authentication errors; I can login fine from my computer and from other computers with the same password as always, and everything seems to sync fine - I still get e-mail, Reader works, G+ works...
Just ignoring it for now.

Solution
I found it's a Google+ sync error. Just deactivate Google+ sync on settings and it will be OK again.
Made a lot of tests, until I found the right way.
I tried with two separate accounts and it gave me the error with all of them. So just deactivating Google+ sync made the error dissapears.
Same for me. I just uninstalled Google+ and reinstalled it, and sync is now possible without error.
Google fixed this error
This seems to be fixed before the Google+ update last saturday. Glad we didn't factory reset
Same thing happened to me. I thought my account was hacked so ichanged the password but the error still persisted so i just let it be, after some updates with Google+ the error is now gone.
With the last revision, I have no sync error, but I can't open Google+, because as soon as I select the account, it tries to connect but gives an error "Without conection", and then a forzed close window. So I've got not sync error at this moment, but can't use Google+ too :crying:
This issue just started up again and I do not have google+ or firefox installed. Any solution that actually works?

Hangouts force closing?

Mine had been, and it was driving me nuts. The app would load just fine but the second I touched a conversation it would force close. Every time. I could hit menu and go to settings but that was about it. I would see it load all my contacts and their pics on the right sidebar.
I had tried uninstalling hangouts and reinstalling, no fix.
Signing out of google, clearing cache and data on google play services and on hangouts, then signing back in to google. No fix.
I short, I tried all the different fixes for broken apps we have all known for ages now, all to no avail.
I tried hangouts on my wife's nexus with my gmail account - it force closed. Tried her account information on my GS4 hangouts, it worked just fine... something else was going on.
Turns out, if you have old archived chats, especially group chats, the hangouts app cannot pull them or handle the data somehow, and will force it to force close.
TO FIX IT -
Sign in to hangouts on PC and clear out everything. All old chats, group chats, archives.
I had never used hangouts on PC before... Not sure I had even archived any chats on purpose.
The app started working immediately and I did not have to restart my phone.
I found the answer to my problem here http://productforums.google.com/forum/#!topic/hangouts/LByoWgqYOtM
I was a gmail beta tester as well - I don't know if this is a determining factor or not, I just thought I would share the information if anyone else is having a similar problem they can have an easy fix.
