Hi all, i've searched far and wide to resolve this but nothing seems to work that i've tried. I cannot sign in to add my google calendar to my phone. I'm able to do everything else: get email, get to playstore, etc. As far as I know i do not have 2 step verification setup. I'm on 4.4.2, rooted. When i try to add my existing google account to the calendar i get "couldn't sign in. There was a problem communicating with the Google servers. Try again later."
I dont want to have to do a factory reset if possible.
Thanks all!

Clear cache and dalvik cache, and delete data from the calendar app. If that doesn't work, uninstall the app, repeat the clearing procedure, then reinstall. It should work:fingers-crossed:
@ldeveraux thanks for the reply. I tried what I think is the process above but still no luck. Maybe I'm not following what you suggested correctly. I went into the data/dalvik cache directory and wiped it out, cleared the calendar data. But not quite sure what you mean by "clear cache" in the very first part of what you wrote. Can you maybe give me a step by step with a little more info? Thanks again.

You're rooted and have safestrap installed?
1) Go to App info on the calendar app and Clear Data
2) reboot to safastrap.
3) go to wipe menu, advanced wipe, then check ONLY Cache and Dalvik Cache
4) wipe these 2 ONLY, then reboot.
If that doesn't work, uninstall the calendar app, reboot, reinstall the app from the play store.
I have no clue if this will work, but it's worth a shot

Hi, Im rooted but dont have Safestrap installed. I guess I can add it back if it'll fix this problem. Do I absolutely need it?

Hello again, I added back Safestrap and followed the above and still the same results. I appreciate the effort. Any other ideas out there?? Also I can't uninstall the calendar app. I guess its the stock one that came with the phone. I can freeze or uninstall it with TB but i don't see it available on the play store.

I'm getting the feeling you didn't do this as I explained. You shouldn't delete the files or folders in a file explorer app. It should be done like I explained in SS.
And you can uninstall google Calendar with any uninstaller app or TB, either way. the new app to download is here, so yes it exists:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.calendar&hl=en

I did follow your instructions once i re-installed Safestrap. But unfortunately still having the issue.
Its possible to clear the cache and davlik cache on stock using stock recovery and without root i thought id note..

Ok for almost a week now I have been unable to download anything from the Market. The downloads start and nothing every happens, they never download. Everything else on my tablet works fine. I have tried everything:
1. Flashed multiple roms, even rooted stock rom, cleared formatted everything, same problem.
2. Flashed multiple kernals including stock
3. Cleared market and download caches
4. Tried replacing with different market versions.
5. Deleted all files on internal sd
Nothing. I am going crazy. Could there be a file on my internal SD that maintains it self after a reflash (doesnt get formatted?). Anyways I am desperate and need any advice you can give me.
Thanks!
You probably already did this but on the off chance. In CWM clear cache and then goto advanced and clear Delvic cache.
yes I have done all of that.
i have the same problem, the way I fix it is to go out of the market, then start it up again, and try to download it again. This sometimes takes 3 or 4 tries. I try it on both the native market app as the website. No id why it happens, I am running 3.2 stock rooted.
Go to the android market on your computer.
https://market.android.com/
Find the app you want.
You put in your google account info and it will ask which device you want to install it on.
Click Iconia A500 and in a few minutes it will download to that device.
I had one that would not download and did it that way.
Did you try this by any chance?

TL;DR
Remove your google account and re-sync it
Try going to....
Settings, accounts & sync, click your gmail account, then on the top right of your screen it says "remove account", click that.
Go to the market, resign in with your gmail and password.
Worked for me... hope it works for you.

Hi all, I changed the levels automatic brightness adjustments, then a call occurred and I aswered. When I closed the call, my defy+ rebooted immediately (no messages appeared) and then went in a bootloop: cyano glowing logo, then a single red LED flash, then it repeats.
Tried to clear dalvik cache, with no luck.
Is there a way to recover easily? Unfortunately I have no backups but want to keep contacts and application data. Not interested in keeping SMS's or photos.
Thank you
Contacts are usually stored with gmail account. I don't know about the app data though.

tried to wipe cache, dalvik cache, then install latest CM10 but ended up with the very same problem.
Should I only go RSD?

Make a backup of your /data in custom recovery, then wipe your /data partition (and cache/dalvik if you want), then reboot.
This will most likely get it to boot up again, then you can use Titanium Backup to restore your apps and app data. Do not restore your complete backup, because it most likely got corrupted, and do not restore System apps either.
You can restore SMS, by restoring Phone/Messaging Storage, and to restore Call Logs/Contacts, restore Contacts Storage. You might want to check the "Migrate System Data" checkbox in Preferences if it doesn't work at first.
Thank you, but I've already gone RSD. Good to know anyway. tnx

Sorry we couldn't find a solution in time.
For me, it's not that important; I full wipe at every sign of a bootloop. With the Desire I used to wipe all, including /system!
As long as you have a google account, you can reinstall the ROM and add your Google account at the beginning. That restores your previous setup of applications and appdata. Contacts are automatically synced and added to People.

Maybe remove your gmail account, reboot, and add your gmail account again?

You said you cleared google cache, but I would wipe cache all together and let it rebuild. Are you modded? Or should I ask how modded are you?

welcome to the whatsapp hell,
someone getting this error and solved it?
Steps I've done until now
1. reinstalled whatsapp from backup
2. uninstalled completely and try to reinstall from play store
3. clear cache of play services, play store, whatsapp
but nothing works. btw I can install any other app from playstore. Maybe an art issue again? Someone updated wa and is on dalvik runtime and can confirm this thought?
thx

I have the almost the same issue. There's two ROMs in my phone, KitKat stock and CM11 snapshot 9. In KK the app was updated as usual, but in CM i got the invalid package error. Then tragedy strikes by my own hand: i made a backup from KK using Titanium Backup, rebooted to CM, UNISTALLED WhatsApp and tried to restore the backup. Nope, same error. Now I have CM and no WA.
Does anyone have the version prior to 2.238.11? please?
EDIT: Nevermind, I found the issue. This version doesn't works with ART. Switching CM to Dalvik allowed me to install the app and restoring everything using TiBkp.
i have the same problem. I tried to delete also Whatsapp and replace it with the new from the website, but it isn't installing the package.
I am on CM11 with ART
Hey guys! So I recently got the option to update to android pie, now since I have the phone for 1.5 years unrooted and it started to be a little slow i decided to factory reset it before updating, now after actually doing the reset it does not show the update anymore and keeps showing me the phone software is up to date, any suggestions? thanks!
Images attached.
Strange, I've never seen anything like it, but you can flash rom using odin.
Any ideas guys? Im still not getting any updates!

Assume you've tried to manually check for updates right?
If that does not work go to your apps, turn on show system apps, now find them "Google services framework" app and clear data, then immediately reboot.

What do you mean manually? Ive checked in the software updates many times since then, tried wiping cache, and google services framework data, tried checking with smart switch. Nothing.

By manually I just meant tapping the update manually button.
Can you use the emergency recovery option in SmartSwitch? Maybe it will reflash current or part of rom or at least reset a system version flag (that maybe factory reset doesn't). I guessing here, never had to use it, but if it was me I'd give it a try.
Only other ways I know would be to flash with Odin, or via recovery or use ADB (obviously make sure you have the correct file for your phone region, provider etc research if you are not familiar with doing this)
