Yesterday I suddenly can't link apps to Facebook with my nexus 7
here's the problem:
1. in app, I pressed the button "sign in with my facebook account"
2. it popped up a dialog asked me to login and authorized the permissions
3. when I confirmed, it back to 2. again and again, falls in a loop..
I've wiped the whole data and reset to factory, but the problem still there..
however, I can do facebook authorized with another android device,
someone can help me solve this :'( ?
Did you restore facebook app from a backup? Try a clean install, also uninstall fb messenger, if you have it, before trying to login to the fb app.

First problem:
A few days ago i changed my gmail PW. Now the android features on my phone don't work. When I'm prompted to enter my PW, i get a network connection error message. I've tried 'force stopping' the gmail, and google apps, turning 3g on/off, without any luck. Toying with this issue has been testing my patience. I'm hoping to find a solution before i perform a hard reset.
Second problem:
I've had the phone for over a year running 2.2.X CM6.X. Since 2.3.X released, I wanted to manually update to gingerbread but i keep getting the 'error 7' code. I've looked around on the forums for solutions: reverting to an unmodified build followed by 'update.zip'
Specs:
Android version 2.2.1
Baseband 32.41.00.32U_5.08.00.04
Kernal Version 2.6.35.9-cyanogenmod
Mod Version: Cyanogenmod-6.1.1-N1
Build: FRG83D
The phone is rooted and bootloader is unlocked. I'm a noob with the android.

Go to Settings > Accounts & Sync Settings
Tap on your Gmail account
You will see a 'Remove Account' button - Hit that
Your phone should now have no account associated with it
Do a reboot (not really necessary though)
Back in the Accounts & Sync Settings, Add a gmail account by hitting 'Add account' button
That should take care of Problem #1
Problem #2:
Get the zip from the OTA here
Boot into recovery and do a Nandroid backup
Wipe Data + everything
Wipe again
Flash the OTA ZIP you downloaded
Reboot into phone
Once rebooted, setup your Google account again
You should be back in business

Thanks for the reply chetanthaker.
1. I don't have gmail as a separate item under sync. i use the default email client for both yahoo/gmail. When i try to remove my gmail account, it says i can only get rid of it by restoring to factory default.
2. I'm not sure where the issue is but even after i did a hard reset i can't login with my google account (the one i changed my PW to) nor the new account i made to verify if the issue is with my phone or accounts. Let's say i manage to update the to Gingerbread, won't i still have the same issue logging into my G account?
1. If you say you do not have a separate Gmail account on the list, that means your phone is not really connected to Google (in it's real sense) - So forcibly closing Gmail and the other Gapps won't really have any effect. (I'm assuming when you have a data connection, your EDGE/3G/WIFI icons do not really turn green from the regular white.
When you first configure your phone, you should ideally configure your gmail account first (so you get access to Market and the other stuff as well). You can then disable Sync on Gmail and add 2 accounts in the default mail app to send/recv email.
Do a Nandroid and get rid of all the accounts (may do a factory reset)
Start with adding a google account and you should be set.
2. You will not have that problem unless you Wipe your data via recovery. All that will happen is you will start fresh with adding your primary Google account

so far i've tried the following (without success):
- removing all accounts from sync list (except the main google account which i can't remove unless i do a factory restor).
- toggle 3g/2g
- logging in with a new google account
- attempt to login via Wi-fi without SD card and/or sim card
- trying old passwords (i thought i might have been entering the wrong PW, but i verified by logging into my gmail account; i'm sane)
- holding my breath and crossing my fingers
- performing a wipe of the phone memory (still can't login with either new or old google account).
Logging into youtube (linked google account) won't work b/c im in china. Initially i thought the hiccup would be due to china's great wall, but i've used this phone here for 8 months and changed my google PW successfully in within. I'm truly at a loss.
I'm still getting emails via default email program (yahoo/gmail accounts).
The internet works
Whatsapp works
And most importantly angry birds still works.
Maybe if i can find a way to update to Gingerbread, this issue will miraculously disappear.
Hi.
Did you try removing the Email app from the Device Administrators?
Maybe that's the reason why you are unable to un-link your Gmail account
Settings > Location and Security > Device Administrators
Uncheck the Email app (screenshot) and try

i don't have the option for my email under device admin list :/
the really odd thing is, i can't log in to my TF101 either...even after restoring back to factory settings. I'm convinced its either Google or China that's punishing me.
Well, with you wanting to update, are you wanting to update to a stock Gingerbread version, or to CyanogenMod's Gingerbread version?
If it is the latter, just go download the latest version 7.1.0. The best way to upgrade is to backup all your apps and app data with an app like Titanium Backup. Then perform a nandroid backup (basically a snapshot of your current system) and wipe the /system partition and perform a Factory Reset/Data Wipe. Then install CM7 and the latest gapps (found from http://goo-inside.me/gapps) and reboot the phone. Once you are in, try to add your google account back to the phone (hopefully it works with a completely blank slate). Then connect to the market and get Titanium Backup back and restore all your apps and app data.
I'm not sure if it's a default security feature from google, but 24 hours after i changed my password and it let me login to my account again...However i'm having issues logging into Gtalk.
Thanks for all your help. Now let's see if i can get it running Gingerbread!
Hey so I have a basic knowledge of this stuff and was goofing around. I tried rooted my S5 and put CM12 on it but after a couple days decided I wasn't feeling it. I got the stock ROM from SamMobile and flashed it back.
Problem is now I do not have the ability to sync Facebook with my contacts. I have checked under Acounts and selected the Contacts sync but nothing happened. I checked the Facebook app and it no longer has the sync setting.
Is there an OEM apk I'm missing?
Thanks
A custom rom is a modified version of android (linux). Once installed, all apps downloaded from Playstore or other official store were no longer recognised by the said store. So no more auto sync, no more auto apps update etc.
Even after I put my phone back to stock ROM?
I have checked with the playstore and all other apps are updating fine. The only change is the fact that Facebook Galaxy integration is missing.
You can't "sync" with facebook now. To sync with any app, both users need to install and give permission to that app. Only then you can sync.

ever since i did the OxygenOS 2.2.0 update on my OP2 (android 5.1.1 build A2003_14_151211) , google messenger crashes as soon as I try to start it ... tried using google hangouts for SMS's but also crashes .. therefore I ended up without an SMS application which I need very much. Any idea please what I can do before I go for the factory reset path
Try to clear cache from recovery and settings and reboot. Used to happen with my phone app. This worked for me.

Have you updated android system web view.just uninstall the update and see the difference.if the problem persist you must format the device and do not update the android system web view.
i cleared cache from Reboot > Recovery option ... i did uninstall the web view update ... i even tried uninstall the google messenger update ... but problem still persists ... I did the factory reset two days ago and also problem persists ... cannot use any of these services ... google messenger (for SMS's), hangouts, contacts icon, phone icon .... all with same behavior.. when opening application, it crashes and closes instantly therefore will not let you be able to use the application

Hey! There is definitely no problem with the Android System Webview, I suggest (unfortunately) flashing TWRP, reflashing full OxygenOS 2.2.0 zip and a factory reset! Believe me it will fix all your problems!

I haven't advice to uninstall the web view.I only said that don't update webview and if you updated web view than uninstall the update.
Web view is a must app for android system.without it many Google apps will crash.

I had this issue too with google installers. wouldn't sync contacts.
found this installer and all was good. no issues with sync and contacts.
it is in Chinese but works like the rest so you should be able to get it working.

Hopefully this can help some people who don't want to use custom recovery or need root.
My MIX came with a vendor rom from gearbest "Global" 8.0.8.0.0 Stable. I was able to figure out that the bootloader was unlocked through the fastboot method. The vendor ROM didn't have the MIUnlock status within the developer options. I requested for unlock before I knew about the fastboot method. The updater app wouldn't work, no matter which app ROM from xiaomi I downloaded. It would always give me the cannot verify error. But I finally was able to flash to the Dev Rom (no eu) weekly build and then add gapps to it. None of this required twrp or rooting. So here are my steps that I went through. Yes there is Chinese bloatware, but many you can uninstall.
1. Make sure it's unlocked. I used the fastboot option via command prompt. I used this.
2. download XiaomiFlash (old version) here. The newest version kept giving me a Specified cast is invalid problem. you can read about it here
3. Download latest fastboot update Developer ROM.
4. Follow steps 4 through 6 on this webpage here. Make sure you decompress the .tgz file.
My vendor ROM had the Playstore access. But after the update, it was giving me a server error. So I installed the following apps in this order to get it working again. If at some point the install fails, then uninstall the app first and reinstall.
1. Install Google Services Framework 6.0.1
2. Install Google Play Services
3. Install Google Account Manager
4. Install Google Play Store
Reboot and you should have access to the google apps and start downloading other google apps. I then also started uninstalling all of the chinese apps that I couldn't read/understand.
If this is not new, then let this thread die. If this works for you. awesome.
Things that I still can't get to work
1. Android Pay
2. Google Play Movies still says this device is not supported.
3. Can't sync with google contacts
Update I haven't tested this, but you can try it on the Dev or the Stable

@Thorin78
A well put together resource is always welcome.
I think I have an answer/solution for some of your ongoing issues:
1) Android Pay not working:
The unlocked bootloader is probably the reason it's not working.I wouldn't recommend relocking it unless you're on an official Xiaomi ROM.
2) Cannot add new contacts:
I've run into that as well.For now, I'm just adding them on my PC via G-Mail (new contacts).Next time you sync on your phone & you should see the new contacts.
3) Google Play Movies issues may be a location issue.If the phone/Google settings isn't allowing for the exact area/country location where you are/Google Play Movies is official,then that may be the problem.
Loading one of the other ROMs may solve this.
These issues may possibly be solved utilizing root apps/Xposed/etc..... IDK,but,if one is savvy enough to unlock the bootloader/Root/ROM/install Xposed framework & modules,then they can likely find those solutions w/o any assistance.

Thanks @KOLIOSIS, I'm not as concerned w/ #1 and #3 so much. But now I can't get contacts to even sync or show up. It's quite weird. It's not part of the sync procedure.
I do agree, if people are already savvy enough to go through the entire process w/ twrp, they probably are better off w/ that procedure.
Anyways, if this isn't working for others either, hope it's made them more comfortable going the next step of twrp.

For whatever reason,(Google) contacts isn't automatically updating/syncing on the MIX.
Until there's a fix,you'll have to go to SETTINGS > ACCOUNTS > OTHER ACCOUNTS > GOOGLE
Tap on the affected Google account & tap CONTACTS.
Here's where part of the bug lies,as when doing so,the sync is turned off instead of syncing. Simply turn it back on & your contacts should update/match whatever you have on your desktop PC.

OK,now we're getting somewhere:
I've been running the EU ROM 6.12.xx & as of a couple days ago,the GlobeROM 6.12.22 (which looks identical to me) & have/had (Google) contacts on both.
Kinda odd,never seen contacts sync missing with any mfg/phone ROM I've run in the past & that list includes Huawei/OPPO/OnePlus & the typical better known mfgs most are familiar with.
Perhaps loading the Google Contacts app from the Google Play Store will kick it into gear...........................................

Ya, I've been searching on xiaomi forums too. Newp. I've uninstalled Google contacts, reinstalled google contacts (tho play store says it's incompatible).
Removed my google account, installed google contacts, google contacts sync and readded my google account through google contacts and still newp.
Everytime I start a google app, there's a new line added for Sync, but not for contacts.

Sounds like you've done your homework,IDK what else to suggest regarding contacts/syncing.
The only thing I can recommend is using the Nuclear Option & switching to either the EU ROM 6.12.xx (weekly) or the GlobeROM 6.12.xx
Oh this is the Xiaomi Dev GlobeROm.
But ya, EU ROM soon if I can't get this working. It's also interesting that I got root via the Permissions options in the settings.
I think someone fixed it from Xiaomi. Check here. You can download the apk, I haven't yet.
http://en.miui.com/thread-294362-1-1.html
To get the google contacts working, you need to assigned all permission to it first then remove and add your google account again.

I had the same problem on my MIX. The 1st time I saved my contacts on another device as a .vcf file, and imported it from the MIX's contacts menu. Suddenly contacts appeared under Google account along with everything else.
The second time I just downloaded and installed this version of google contants sync http://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google-inc/google-contacts-sync/google-contacts-sync-4-0-4-488656-release/google-contacts-sync-4-0-4-488656-android-apk-download/, and again contacts appeared and synced.
Try and let us know.
