This morning, at approximately 6:00 AM EST, when I turned on my phone and attempted to access the market, it would begin loading then just boot me back to the home screen. No crash dialogue or anything.
After a few tries and some tinkering, I realized I couldn't use ANY Google service (GTalk [although AIM and the rest worked], Google Calendar, GMail, Market, ect.) they would all either boot back to home screen or display:
"Google sign in
There was a network error while trying to sign in to [email protected].
Retry now or press the back button to cancel."
and it offers the "Retry" button, but to no avail.
After about 30 minutes, all these symptoms went away, and just now (7:35 PM EST) the symptoms are back.
Any idea what this can be?
T-Mobile USA, running JFv1.41 (just upgraded to JFv1.42 before reporting this [hoping it would fix it]) RC33.
This should be forwarded to FailBlog.org
Maybe they will tell you to wipe your phone.
lol glad someone caught the failblog reference
but yea, i tried wiping.. same crap..
Haha, well then, why don't you try to make a NEW google account.
See if that works first.
Also try to log into your gmail account "not on the phone".
Maybe somebody changed your password.
lol i'm not that asinine.
of course, i use my google account almost constantly on my computer, if not more than on my phone.
my phone seems to be acting up over its APN choices i believe.
when i select T-Mobile USA (epc.tmobile.com) it resets my edge/3g connection and everything seems to work. but given a few moments, it soon decides to die again until i repeat the process.
I have a Tmobile G2 that I just got a week ago. I played around with it for a couple days before deciding to root it, but finally pulled the trigger. Two days after rooting it a very strange thing happened. In the middle of the evening some of my Google applications stopped syncing. Gmail, Voice, and Contacts stopped. Drive still worked. Hangouts still worked... It was just weird. I clicked around for awhile and hit the interwebs to find the solution or to see if there was some widespread google outage again, but nothing.
I did everything I could think of, and then I finally clicked the option to take the phone back to stock. I know it wasn't going to take away my root, but at this point I wasn't thinking root was the problem. I just thought maybe I installed something that messed up the phone or something. Anyway, I took it back to normal and now the problem was weirder. It wouldn't even let me connect my Google account (or any google account) to the phone. It kept saying there was some sort of server error. I called TMO support and they couldn't figure it out either. They gave me a number to call Google support to let them fix it. They said that this was a 'known issue' and google support would be the one to fix it.
I kind of got nervous that they were going to creep into my phone or something and void my warranty. If my phone was broken and wouldn't connect to Google anymore then I at least wanted to be able to return it to the store and get a new one. I kinda like this device. So I un-rooted it and took it way back to stock. That fixed the problem. I don't know why, but it did. It left SU on the phone, so I'll have to get that off if it has issues again, but for now it is working fine.
Any idea why it would have just suddenly stopped connecting to Google? It connected to Drive just fine and several other apps, but the important ones wouldn't work. Unrooting it did the trick, but that would suck if you have a really great setup built. Oh well... The price you pay for being a hacker I guess.

Google had problems with their servers, many services were unavailable... had most probably nothing to do with you rooting...
You just picked the right time to do that.
Google from time to time have some problems. But not related to rooting.

That's kind of what I thought, but it was miraculously healed when I unrooted it. It could have just been strange timing, but there was nothing on the web about anybody else having this issue. I'll root it again and see what happens. There are some definite advantages to root access that I don't want to lose, but getting my email and texts are pretty important too, so....

I'm talking about this past Saturday morning, though. February 1st. I know about the google issue a week or two ago, but this was only affecting my mobile apps and wasn't the same thing. I was able to access gmail on the computer just fine. I could even access it from the phone's browser fine, but connecting the Google account to the phone was not possible. All I kept getting was 'cannot make a reliable connection to the server' error, so that is why I took the phone back to stock and then all the way back to unrooted. Unrooting it solved it, so I don't think it was just a google server issue which only affected me between the hours of 7:30 on Friday night till Saturday afternoon when I finally gave up and unrooted. It could have been connected, but I doubt it.
Which rooting guide did you follow?

I'm having the same problem. I deleted my account and recreated it. But auto-sync does not work. This has nothing to do with syncing. That works - but I have to sync manually. If I manually sync it from either the app or from the accounts option in settings it works fine. But it won't sync again. I deleted the account, restarted the phone and added the account again. Still doesn't work. If you root it and run into the same problem, please post again. I'll unroot too then.
I know this used to work at some point. I don't know when it stopped working. But it's not been working for days now.

I don't recall. The root part worked fine. I was able to use several of my apps which require root access and they all worked fine for a couple days. It just seems really random that this would all stop working one day.
So here is the timeline.....
Monday 1/27/14 - phone arrives
Wednesday - Rooted
Friday evening - Strange sync issues
Saturday morning - restored to stock while keeping root (did not solve problem and now I cannot connect any google account)
Saturday afternoon - unrooted and restored device (solved problem and google account synced fine after)
That was all in the same week. I've only had the phone since last Monday. It is worth saying that my HTC G2 and my wife's HTC G2 didn't have any issues with google syncing during this time. Totally different products, but I really tried to find anything to link the problem to something systemic and not just a device issue.
I haven't rooted it again just yet. I need to do it before I go too nuts re-installing the apks on my machine anyway. I'll definitely post again if I have problems again, but I really want to believe it was just something left over from whatever bug plagued Google a couple weeks ago.
Google Now gives error "Network error. Check your network connections and try again."
UPDATE: FIXED, check comment below!
So, you may have heard of this error before, I got it randomly today for no reason while trying to use Google Now on Tap, so I tried uninstalling updates for Google Play Services etc. and it just resulted in me having to re-enable Google Now Cards blah blah blah, which wouldn't work and kept saying the error and doing nothing.
After spamming to opt-in to Google Now (after a fresh reset of the phone), it eventually let me, and I spammed refresh in the Google App and it eventually refreshed, but 9/10 times it will just fail with that error.
What do I do? This is seriously annoying and I use Google Now for so much crap nowadays, it's hard to live without now...
I've tried resetting, it seems to be an account related issue from the research I've done so far, reading up about other people's attempts to fix it etc.
Thanks in advance guys, I appreciate it.
I'm on a Nexus 6P running Android 6.0.1 and it's not rooted.

12 hours later and it fixed itself...
Such a weird error.
Oh well!
I bought a nearly new PH-1 to give to my 13 year old son. We use Google Family Link for all of our kid's devices without issue. Until the Ph-1. Usually I can set up a device after a Factory Reset using their managed log-in and it goes smoothly. They are up and running in 10 minutes. For some reason that I have not been able to track down, it's not working on the PH-1. I've tried several different pathways and every single time once it tries to verify the child's account it tells me it fails and I can retry or cancel.
I've gone through the setup process using my parent account and I get everything working perfectly. I can reproduce the problem (unfortunately) after 3 full resets and retries. I've tried using all of the affected apps to make sure they are functional. I've logged into and out of the device, rebooted, tried to log in a different kid...etc
Each time it fails with "something went wrong" and the only options are re-try or close.
I'm about to throw this thing under a bus.
Has anyone else been down this road?
Thanks!

Yep, it's broken. It has been a few months since I last tried, so I figured I'd give it another shot after this week's updates. Still doesn't work. I had mine working sometime around late summer/early fall 2018. The original setup and configuration went smoothly, and the Google components worked fine (Gmail, Google Play). But sometime later I noticed that my kids' Google profiles on my PH-1 were mangled. Google apps suddenly didn't work. I don't remember the details, but I figure it broke after an update. I ended up deleting and re-creating the phone profiles for them, but the Google configuration never would complete. It fails during the Family Link download. I've even gone into their Google Play account profiles and set it so that no approval is required for purchase or downloads. But the Family Link setup never completes under their PH-1 profiles. It's frustrating because one of the reasons I bought the PH-1 was the ability to manage multiple Android profiles. And it used to work.

Parent and child account can't be on same device.
I had the same issue over and over again on a moto g7. It wasn't until I attempted to add the user via the Family Link instead of the native Android method that the error came up that the parent and child account can't be on the same device and said to remove the parent account. I factory reset the moto G7 and added my child's account and it worked as desired.
EDIT:
Sorry, I hit this via google search and now noticed it's for the Essential Phone. Not sure if relevant here...

bad Google.
I got this Mediapad M3 2-3 years ago and loved the light weight and the speakers are sooo good!! I used it regularly for a year and then began using it less frequently. Once, I forgot my lockscreen password and had to factory reset it. This happened again some months later again, I forgot the lockscreen pattern and decided to reboot after trying and failing to remember the pattern for months, literally!!
Then, when I started it up after the reset, it gave me all the setup things like language, wifi and so on and then a "sign in with google account synced to this device" came up. Now, I had forgotten the synced email so I logged in from the one I remember but it kept saying "Unable to sign in due to password change. Please try after 24 hours.". So, I just decided to switch off the tablet and use it later on.
Many months later, I again charged it, booted it up and did the initial setup. Then had to sign in with my synced google account, now I remebered my google accounts but had forgotten their passwords. Luckily, I was able to recover the accounts and changed their passwords.
After that, I tried logging in to the google account on the device. But it said the same thing "Unable to sign in due to password change. Please try after 24 hours." So, I tried again after 24 hours, 72 hours, a week later but the same thing is happening about the password change. I am very sure the emails I am entering are the ones synced with the device. But it won't login.
Please Please help me get access to it. I am losing my mind trying to get in, it's been more than a year!!
Edit: I haven't rooted it or added custom ROM or other such software. It was running on the android it came packaged with.
