SOLVED!! Needless to say Orange were to blame. Once I turned off the porn filter, the Hero is able to upload data to Google. Thanks to the guys at Google answers for that one (would link it, but can't remember where I found it!)
Hi everyone. I've been having problems syncing my calendar on my Hero with Google Calendar.
I've ensured that any new entry is for my google calendar not the phone calendar. I can sync from Google calendar to the Hero but not the other way round.
Contacts and emails work fine.
On my sync settings menu (Settings, Data synchronisation, Google) I have the message "Sync is currently experiencing problems. It will be back shortly." It hasn't yet and the Hero is 1 week old!
Any suggestions would be gratefully received!
Pete
Sorry, just so you all know, I have had a good look already for solutions. Most people's just seem to work after they set the calendar on the Hero as the Google Calendar each time they make a new entry...
Sadly not mine!
Do you already have the new update on your Hero?
Mine sync great and I haven´t even installed the new update.
Greets.
Yep new update on unlocked Hero. HTC just said to do a hard reset (which didn't work).
I wonder whether its something to do with my Google calendar rather than the Hero?
I just noticed a few days ago that GMail isn't syncing with my phone anymore. I send myself an email just to check and it never showed any notification untill I manually entered the application and updated. Of course, I'd ran this test before and it worked flawlessly. I really need this to work because I use my email a lot for work purposes.
I'm currently on CM-5.0.3.1, ERE36B. I don't really know what may have happened. Configuration to receive notifications apparently is ok. As far as I know the only thing that may have changed is the number of apps. Can there be some kind of interference between some app and GMail sync? Come on it's the Google Phone, if GMail can't work we've got a problem...
Any help will be GREATLY appreciated.
Go into: Settings, Applications, Manage Applications, Filter - ALL, find GMAIL and GMAIL Storage, clear data for both.
Solved! Thanks!
Hi !
Used to get these issues too on my HTC Magic (G2). Nothing wrong with my N1, but this morning, no sync (last sync seven hours ago...).
Turned everything down then restarted and it worked again.
Do you often get that? Is it a google-related issue ?
Simple enough. I can't make my Facebook contacts sync, at all.
Obviously the Facebook app doesn't sync, that can be fixed with a build.prop edit I think, but I don't wanna deal with that.
The TouchWiz integration syncs calendar fine, but refuses to sync contacts. I've removed my account and readded it and it still won't work, just says sync is unavailable right now. It blows!
Also, since I updated to DI07 I have no protected apps available in the Market. How do I know? Search for Gameloft and see if you find anything. Or iDemolish, you can only find the free version. Again, another build.prop edit but I wanna know if it's just me.
Facebook sync has been down all morning for me. Its something on facebooks side.

Need help guys!!! My facebook contacts that I previously linked with my windows live contacts becomes unlinked everytime I perform synchronization in my hotmail livetile.
Pls help me regarding this problem. I have search the net but i couldn't find any solution. Anyone there with the same problem? Please help!!!!
Ive had the same problem. my contacts seem to randomly un-link with facebook and windows live as well as becoming un-pinned to my home page. Ive had the focus since november and this only recently started happening
Happened to me over the weekend as well, but just was a one time thing.
Word is that this should be fixed as of today. No specifics on the fix but there's nothing you need to do on your phone.
the feature was working just fine before I decided to do a fresh installation of nexusbeam 4.2.3 rom, now I can't sync my twitter account contacts.
I tried to rollback to nexusbeam 4.0.3 to sync twitter contacts but with no luck
I would post this in the NexusBeam thread but I still don't have sufficient post to access the reply feature

actually i had the same problem with a couple of ics roms so went back to cm7.1 and had the problem. In my case it did still sync the contacts just gave the error had to check and uncheck it a couple of times though, so it may be something with twitter.
rolling back to CM7 didn't fix it either, I suspect a leftover preference file from another ROM or something like that is causing the problem.
i will try to do another fresh of stock ROM and report back if it worked.
This seems to be a server-side problem, I can't sync contacts on my Nexus S with stock ICS (4.0.3), even though I didn't change any settings.
This problem started on Friday.
Same here (on cm7)
Previously (on stock rom) whenever I clicked on the twitter link of any contact in my list I would get an error about twitter not being available.
So contact sync never worked correctly for me
my xperia play sync the contacts without any problem, I think the problem might be related to Google devices only. hope they will fix this soon

Same here. It started Friday. Must be a Twitter problem. I can't sync my contacts on my Nexus S or my Xoom since Friday.
Got the same problems.
I re-installed the stock ICS package (no custom roms, no mods, only the same kernel - Matr1x - I had before wiping) and once I tried to sync my Twitter account it said "Unable to sync etc etc"...
Tried again after a few hours and today again but it keeps saying "unable to sync, connect, rofltrolol and so on..."
Nice to see that I'm not the only one having this problem.
PS: before I re-installed ICS, I did a proper wipe (system, data, boot and so on) so I don't think there is any trace of the previous ROM (however, the previous installation was the same IML74K I set up yesterday, so dunno...)
I thought I was the only one with this problem lol. I was messing around with the sync settings and thought I broke it by accident.
Hopefully it gets fixed soon. It was working a few days ago (or at least since my last full wipe)
Had the same problem did nothing now it is working :s

at least for you... I have again that problem...
anyone got this syncing issue solved ?
still not working here...
I don't think it's something we can solve. I think it's something Twitter has to solve.

Ditto. I have an HTC Vivid, stock and unrooted, and this problem started happening on my phone last Friday, 1/20.
Contacts still won't sync. Having read the other posts here, I tried creating a new twitter account in order to determine if it was related to settings associated with my account. I had the same issue with the brand new account.
To be clear-- Messages (tweets) sync just fine, and my account is accessible through the Twitter app, but the contacts added previously to my list by Twitter do not sync.

The issue is with the app-- Not your phone.
Just out of curiosity, I checked the comments on the app, itself, in the android market.
Anyone who is unsure if the contacts sync issue is with the app or some fouled up setting on your phone should check out those comments. You can see them for yourself here.
Multiple complaints that the latest update to the app prevents contacts from being sync'd.
The bad news is you won't get twitter updates on your contact list ("people" app on many android phones) and unless you uncheck the option in accounts, there will be a consistent "fail" warning.
The good news is, the app works fine outside of that one feature and the error is related to the app and not your phone or settings.
I'm sure there will be an update soon enough. In the meantime, just uncheck the sync option or ignore the error warning.
