[Q] Samsung Account wont sync

Hi i have a gs5 on xtrestolite 1.3.4 and i cant get my samsung account to sync and it has some important school documents saved in memo. Is there anyway i can get it to sync? The option for it is grayed out and i really need the documents for tomorrow! Thanks!

Just goes to show you the importance of backups and local copies that you can more reliably access.
Try in order;
Wiping the system partition from recovery mode.
Clearing the cache and data for the Samsung account from the Application manager screen (in the Settings menu)
Delete and recreate your Samsung account on your phone. Do not delete the account per se, just the info on your phone.
And as a last resort, if you are under time pressure.. back up anything important on your phone. Then write a 100% stock firmware image to the phone with the Odin software, followed by a factory data reset. Pretty much a sledgehammer approach that will fix pretty much any client side issues.

[Q] Help needed cannot sync calendar aftre root and delete

Hi all,
Been a long time since iv posted in XDA forums it was way back when it was for xda's as since iv had a iphone but now have android.
Anyway to my question.....
I rooted my N3 yesterday and deleted a load of stock apps but may have inadvertainly deleted something i should have because now i cannot sync any calendars or contacts, iv gone into titanium backup and i still have google calendar and google contacts sync so i cannot understand why they are not working.... i did deleted pretty much everything with samsung on it so could that be it?
Iv done the usual reboot phone, delete account, etc but it still says sync error ' sync is currently experiencing problems'
So my question is, does anybody know the files i need to put back to make sync work again without the need for me to go back to stock and do it all again?
thanks

[Q] Incoming phone calls not associated with contacts

Hi.
As title says Incoming phone calls not associated with contacts.
What ive tried:
* restore to previous date via google contacts on the web - unsuccessful
* restore to previous twrp backup - this works but as soon as i sync with google it brakes
* again restore to previous twrp backup but before i sync i export my contacts and delete all contacts via the web to import then sync. - this was ok but as soon as i sync with google it brakes again.
im out of ideas, anyone who has a better one to solve this?
Phone is a Galaxy s4+ i9506 running Cyanogen 12: http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...nogenmod-12-0-galaxy-s4-lte-gt-i9506-t2988464
My guess for when this started is after running Contacs Sync Fix https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ru.ivary.ContactsSyncFix&hl=en - which was supposed to fix contact sync errors. I did have a backup of my contact data but as soon as i setup a google account and it syncs it brakes. In retrospect instead of running this app i should have just removed the account then readded it. You live and you learn.....

1. Wipe all and flash a STOCK ROM.
2. Go to GMAIL and log in your account of Google. Modify or delete the contacts you wish (like in the pic attached). Don't restore any backup coz seems corrupted or with bugs.
3. Log in to your account of Google (gmail) in your android and you are done.

thanks for your reply! I however did a slightly different option instead of installing stock rom i wiped sys/data and boot flashed with cm and finally when restoring from titanium backup only selected a few apps being careful NOT to select anything to do with call log or contact.. sofar so good! Thanks for the hint

S Planner deleted all events. Advice how to restore it?

Hi guys.
I used S Planner in my S4 i9505 as I installed 'a Cakendar'.
When I selected the kalendar list, all events got deleted and now I have a plain calendar.
I don't have a backup on my Google account, nor Samsung Account or a backup with Kies.
Is there any way to get this data?
I don't have root or an unlocked bootloader on this device.

Make sure the accounts in the app are set properly. If so, then the data is gone and no way to retrieve it.

To get your data back you should backup your data to your Samsung account. If you was not backuped your things you can not get your notes. Sorry for bad English :good:

Thank you guys. The sync was disabled and not backuped in Google/Samsung account.
Well next time I know why you should backup everything.

Backup with Gmail

Hi all,
I have OPT with OxygenOS 2.2.1.
I want to update my OS to OxygenOS 3.0.2.
1. How can i backup my all Phone's data (everything) to my GMAIL account (if it possible) ?
2. Does a factory reset is necessary after updating to the new OS ?
Best,
Jonathan

You can backup your contacts and photos to your google account. Therefore enable the sync for that.
But best way to backup your data is to use TitaniumBackup.

Or using Helium, it supports Google Drive as destination.

You only need to connect using PC for the first time, this is to make it compatible with those who don't have root access on their phones.
