Default Re: Contact Sync with Gmail

Please Login to Remove!

My BB has begun syncing Contacts again, and I have no logical explanation, but it must have something to do with some changes I made in the last few days, which were:
- Google informed me several days ago that somebody had hacked my gmail account, so I changed the password
- Yesterday, even though my google Calendar was syncing (but not Contacts), I thought it might be a good idea to delete and re-install my Google email, so I did, and this time it appeared to activate Contacts, although Contacts still did not sync, even after 24 hours.
- today, I unchecked the Contacts sync box, and saved. Then I rechecked and saved it.
- Not long after, I got a message from BB that Contacts were no longer syncing (they never were).
- So I unchecked the box and saved again, then checked it and saved.
- A short time later Contacts began syncing!
If anybody can figure that out, I'd be grateful

Did you try re-booting? taking backup and restoring?

It should not be a google issue!

Find a permanent solution for it rather going for temporary solution!

Tried it all. For details review this string from the beginning. I've tried re-booting, re-installing the operating system, restoring, checking and unchecking the sync boxes, and more. My calendar always syncs, but not Contacts, even though all indications are that it should. It synced yesterday, for no obvious reason, but has not done so again for 24 hours (Contacts should sync every 5 hours automatically).
I also have a Kindle Fire, and that syncs gmail Contacts automatically no problem.

Rolyb,
Doing a lot of reading on this issue and the only thing I found is a LOT of people have the same issue and not just recently but for years. It seems virtually all types of cell phones have the same problem and for some reason not every user of the same type have the issue. Some have it and it goes away like you and some never get it working.
After reading it seems to be a conflict with an app on the phone. Users have re-optioned the phone and it starts and others found it was Gmail being over ridden by another program trying to sync at the same time. PC's and Tablets don't seem to be having the problem just cell phones. It may be the phone cannot do two major apps at the same time and one gets stalled and does not reload. Some people have changed the sync time to 1 to 3 days with success and some have had to go longer.

Thanks tsac. That makes a lot of sense. I'm just going to forget about it now, as Contacts seems to be syncing on my new BB Classic. Thanks again, especially for your extra efforts in researching the problem.

Make sure to add your Google Account to your Android device:
1.Make sure that you have Gmail installed on your device.
2.Go to Settings, then go to ‘Accounts and Sync’.
3.Enable the Accounts and syncing service.
4.Select your Gmail account from the e-mail accounts setup .
5.Make sure that you’ve enabled the ‘Sync Contacts’ option.
6.Press ‘Sync now’ button and wait until all the phone contacts have been successfully synchronized with your gmail account.
7.Now open Gmail in your computer’s web browser and click the Gmail text link that is listed on the upper left side of the Gmail profile.
8.Select Contacts and then you should see a page where all the contacts from your Android smartphone have been stored.

Thanks ElvinSloth. The problem was with my BB 9810 Torch, which is not Android, and has a different access to Settings. In any case, although slightly different, all the points that you recommend were already done, without success. Then for no apparent reason, Contacts sync started again, then stopped after one sync. I'm not concerned any longer, because I have upgraded to a BB Classic, and that syncs just fine.
