I'm having a very strange problem today. I reflashed back to my previous rom and now can't access my Google Account which has always worked previously. I can sign in to gmail and receive emails, but when run the Setup and I click on Google Account - nothing happens. Also it normally says "Tap to setup" and now it's showing google_login .
I also went to Settings>Accounts & Sync and tried to add an account, but Google is not one of the options available. If I try to access the Market thinking I could sign in there, again nothing happens - press market icon and it just returns to the app drawer. I have seen some posts and articles from endgadget where there were comments about problems being experienced with the market, but has anyone experienced this as haven't seen any similar posts?

check to make sure you have accountsyncmanager.apk in your system/apps folder. I repacked my own system.img and took out some apps I didn't need or wanted and accidently had taken that one out and experienced similar behavior.

Thanks for the pointer, but the accountsyncmanager.apk is there in the system/apps folder.
I can choose to add Facebook, Twitter, Flikr accounts etc, but not Google.

Hey all, new HTC Legend owner here and am absolutely loving the phone, but jsut had a quick question. I went into gmail and assigned some contacts (since I sync from gmail for contacts list) some pictures so our SMS chats would look pretty. And they do look pretty, but I can't figure out how to assign an avatar to MYSELF.
What I mean is, take a look at this chat message I'm having with a friend

I don't use stock messaging app (I don't even have it installed), but I can tell you that handcent has option to add your picture.
Since upgrading to 4.2, I can't use gmail.com in chrome. I use it for other accounts that I haven't linked. When I first went to gmail.com it automatically logged me into my primary account which prior to 4.2 it never did before. I chose to sign out and now it's caught in a loop constantly refreshing the url but nothing ever being displayed.
Are others getting this? If not, is there a way I can clear the cookies for just gmail.com?
I can.
All I did is it auto-logged me in and I clicked the menu icon on top left and "Sign in with different account", then just logged in.

Thank you for answering. I thought such a simple request but no one would answer.
It's strange, it will keep looping/refreshing in the address bar but no content ever comes up. However, if I request desktop version of the site, it does finally come up, but desktop gmail has always been extremely slow on chrome (I think it's actually slower now). Once I got in I successfully logged out hoping that would solve it, but once I go back to mobile it begins looping again.
I don't think there is a way of clearing all cookies/cache for a particular site in mobile chrome, but if anyone knows how I'd appreciate it. Otherwise I'm going to clear all of it's cache but I'll lose my saved logins etc for other sites.
Does anyone know why this is installed by default on jb 4.3? I came across it while browsing through the installed apps section in titanium backup. Google apps policy 4.25. If you look it up in the store its says its an administrator enterprise app. I'm assuming its part of the new security stuff in 4.3. Another strange thing is that its not enabled by default. It has some pretty wicked permission privlesges. I went ahead and froze it for now.

AFAIK it's only used if you have an account Google Apps For Business account. GAFB account admin can set up and force his employees to install this stuff on their devices in order to use their accounts at employers domain. You don't need to affraid - admin can only remove content connected with accounts he administrates, so [email protected] is still 100% private (yeah I know, Google and privacy... good joke ), but [email protected] can be controlled by him anytime and anywhere.
And yes - unfortunately employer can track you via GPS all the time, make fake calls (which turns volume to 100%, no matter what), wake up your phone, etc.
Summing: it's safe until your employer is not a dck.
P.S.:
You can track your device and make those fake calls too: https://www.google.com/android/devicemanager
Every time I bootup my Note 3, a Facebook notification shows up on the Notification bar. When you click on it, it's titled "Set up Facebook account" and within it, it says "Galaxy Note III will receive the following info. ....."
This is really annoying, especially when I've already installed and logged-in to Facebook's App, now Samsung's own Facebook account keeps nagging me to login with permissions to grab my info.

It won't stop starting up every time you bootup, possibly until you log-in.
What gives?
looks like there's a similar thread here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2252152
Same issue here.
On my s4 I pressed decline once & it never reappeared.
That is part of Samsung's Facebook Sync... I think it can be used for when you tell S-Voice to post a status update onto facebook. You can go into S-Voice, then settings, then towards the bottom, you will see where you can link facebook and twitter.
Go to your contacts
Then press the menu
Choose "accounts"
Remove the facebook account
That anoying notification is gone (at least with me worked)

As anyone gotten the Google phone app (dialer) to work? I can't install it and under my Google account it doesn't list the option to sync contacts.
I have the same problem
Same here in regards to contacts sync, though I have installed and successfully used the modded phone apks floating around (even the version of phone app from the pixel). Have even installed latest Google contacts sync apk but doesn't solve the problem.
So far I've used the workaround of exporting my contacts from google into a vcard file and then importing that into the phone.

Managed to finally solve this just now, here's what I did.
1. Remove Google apps that I had installed manually using the app manager in Mi-Assistant:

}
2. Downloaded Xaomi Google Play installer from here:

3. Rebooted.
4. Finished. I didn't even have to add my Google account again for some reason. Now I have this:
Finally saying all that please take note that none of the steps has been verified as being needed. Such as the first step of uninstalling before running the installer. Or rebooting after installer finished. These are just the steps that I personally used.
