Newly rooted NC. When I select gmail I get "This account is not configured to sync automatically. Pres Menu> Refresh to sync mail once. Or press Home and touch Settings > Accounts% Sync to configure....:"
When I refresh it does nothing.
When I press Home Settings there is no Accounts Sync
When I press the other menu option (to the right of the center arrow)and select accounts I see the account - when I press menu again to see account setup it just crashes and reboots.
Any ideas?
Did you use the youtube hack to add your google account? I know that process was very finicky for me. I'm pretty sure the reason you have to use youtube to add the account is the normal account management stuff doesn't fully work (which is probably why it crashes for you). I borked it all up the first time I tried it, ended up unrooting and starting over carefully following the nookdevs dot com tutorial for rooting. 2nd time worked like a charm although I'm not sure what I did differently.
Just tried to re-root after the 8x thing, got stuck in boot loops. Tried the fix for that and I seem to have bricked it, back to BN if I cant find a fix
Good Luck with the store...
I'm not familiar with exactly how your nook is acting but it's very hard to "brick" your NC. If you have no luck at the store be sure to browse around this forum more.... most likely the answers you need are already here
What is the Youtube hack to add a google account? I am having similar issues with gmail. It's not auto syncing at all and when I manually sync, it crashes. Thank you.
I'm on MoDaCo r12, and it has worked flawlessly thus far.
All of the sudden Google Talk started telling "Google Talk authentication error", and it keeps playing the notification sound at random and sometimes very often. Additionally Gmail has stopped synchronizing without any notice. Not a single error message!
I have never seen this strangeness in the two years of messing around with Android. Settings -> Accounts and sync sometimes tells me that "Sync is having problems and will be back shortly", but mostly it just doesn't work without telling me about any errors.
The log shows lines like these:
Code:
W/DefaultRequestDirector( 1373): Authentication error: Unable to respond to any of these challenges: {}
Sometimes there will be methods listed in the curly braces, but mostly not.
Code:
W/DefaultRequestDirector( 1406): Authentication error: Unable to respond to any of these challenges: {googlelogin=WWW-Authenticate: GoogleLogin realm="http://www.google.com/accounts/ClientLogin", service=""}
I have tried wiping /cache, re-flashing the ROM image, clearing data in any apps I think might be related to Google services. E.g. Google services framework, accounts, account and sync settings, Talk, Gmail, Market...
I have even tried changing the Google account password twice. The phone notices it and accepts my new password like it normally would, but the issue remains.
This is a @gmail.com account. I have a Google Apps account on my phone also, and that one works fine.
Does anyone have any ideas? I'm about to wipe everything and start fresh, but first I would like to know if anyone has any killer tips on to get rid of this. I'm thinking there might be a cached cookie/auth token or something somewhere that's causing this.

Check your date. Possibly you are either in the past or from the future

That's not it I'm afraid. Using ClockSync, so it was only off by about one second after a reboot just now. I tried fix permissions in despair, but to no avail.
As noted above, my Google Apps account works fine, it's just my gmail.com account that doesn't work. Somehow it seems that Contacts and Calendar are sync'ed. Meaning the time and date of last sync on those are a few minutes ago, but Picasa is dated two days ago, Gmail yesterday.
I checked it on my Nexus One too; it pops up the password prompt (because I changed my pass) and then goes on to synchronize everything perfectly fine. Wtf could cause this! I haven't really done anything but read Twitter, Facebook and some RSS via Pulse before it stopped working. I only updated a couple of apps that is not related in any way and have not changed any system settings.
Fcuk it, I wiped it all and restored apps with titanium backup. All good now.
Hi, i to have a problem with Google account sign in but its with Play store, every time i try to use Play store it asks me to ether use an existing Google account or make a new account even though i have a Google account set up on my phone. So my question is how can i get back on to Play store with my Google account? Tried by removing my account from my phone then going on to Play Store and signed in with my account but when i tried going back to Play store again it asked me to ether make a new account or use an existing account.
I guess its becoz in some parts of the world youtube services has been shutdown and it as affected google services communication badly. I live in pakistan and here we cant access to google play and other google services as well.

Once had the same problem and until I realized I had an error with my baseband, I pulled out a lot of my sparse hair.
Make a good backup and try to flash new bb, then Google will recognize you again (I hope!!!!)
I have a rooted KFHD7. SW is 7.4.3. I followed this thread to install Google Apps, and that thread essentially directed me to install these apps:
Account And Sync Settings-2.3.4.apk
Google Login Service-4.0.3-239410.apk
Google Play services-3.1.59 (736673-34) .apk
Google Play Store-4.1.10.apk
Google Services Framework-4.0.4-338691.apk
Vending.apk
I also installed Hangouts, Google+, etc.
Anyway, all my Google apps and Google push notifications are working fine. When I install the GMail apk (I just click it via ES File Explorer and I do not move anything to /system/app). it installs just fine. Upon launch of the app, it indicates that it is syncing, but never actually syncs. It just hangs (I waited several minutes).
I tried the latest GMail in the Play Store. I also tried version Gmail_4.5.2-714156.apk.
One I get GMail installed, my KFD will have all the GApps that I want on it. Any advice? Maybe I am using the wrong version or the wrong installation technique?
Thanks...

Have you tried it with notifications turned off? If it works then, then you're hitting a crash bug when Gmail tries to create notifications. There are a few fixes around the forums. If it still doesn't, I'm not sure what the deal is. It should sync fine.

Well, I installed the latest GMail from the Play store, then turned off notifications. Still looked like it was syncing... then... it worked. I see my email.
Thanks!

Have you tried to login in your gmail account in settings-my account-mail?

Yes, I did that too. So my GMail is now set to sync since I turned that on in the GMail settings.I also turned on notifications (within the Kindle App menu). Seems to be working just fine now and I have not experienced the issue with the notification bar... yet.
I'm on a Nook HD+ 32GB and CM 10.1.3. Sync is simply not working. I don't mean calendar or contacts, I mean everything that uses sync. Or, to put it another way, every app/service that registers themselves under the "Accounts" section of the settings. So for example, Firefox sync, Evernote, Vine and, of course, all Google services (including Gmail).
The only things that are syncing correctly are the apps that use their own sync like Aquamail, Plume and Wunderlist. Those are all working fine.
The symptoms: When I, for example, press "sync now" in any of the Google accounts, the little sync circle appears next to the first sync item. It doesn't spin (not sure if this rom the circle is supposed to spin) and it just stays there, forever, till I reboot the tablet. I am getting no error messages.
What I have done: Ok, the initial sync works. When I first set up the account, it syncs. I have since factory reset and re-flashed 4 times trying to fix this. The initial sync works but then it never syncs again. If I remove and re-add accounts, it syncs fine the first time but then it doesn't sync again.
I have tried deleting all data from every sync enabled app. When I do that, it doesn't sync at all, not even once. Only time it syncs, that I have seen, is on the initial account setup.
Help: I need troubleshooting ideas and, better, all the things that might stop syncing from working. The mechanism itself seems to be working as it does an initial sync. Something seems to be stopping it from doing any more syncs though and I have no clue what or how the sync system works. What apps are involved in syncing? Is it Google Framework? Other things?
Thanks!!
Be sure that you don't prevent google apps to see your personal data. Go to Settings -> Security -> Privacy guard to check that

Appreciate the help! I don't use Privacy guard and no apps are enabled, but I do use Open PDroid. I tried deleting all rules for every system app in in Pdroid and then syncing but it still does not work.
Any other ideas? Thanks!
After not getting any traction on fixing this, I started trying the 10.2 nightlies. However, I am running into issues with that and would really rather be back on my 10.1.3 build. So a quick "bump" to this thread.
I am wondering if AFwall is somehow to blame here? Before I flashed 10.2 I uninstalled afwall and Pdroid to see if that would fix anything and it didn't. I have also removed the following items from the rom:
email, news and weather, notepad, exchange services, Google+ and picasa uploader. I should note I have removed email, exchange services, google+ and picasa uploader on my 2 Samsung phones (G4 and Note 2) and my Asus tablet (TF300) as well and not had any issues, but I though I would mention it.
I think those are the only things that make my build different from everyone else.
All right, hope this info helps someone. Instead of reading the new Dan Brown, which has been on my want to to list, I sat in a nipa cabana on Saturday, restored my 10.1 nandroid, and tracked this one down.
The culprit is the Xposed module Gravity Box. Once that was disabled and uninstalled sync worked again.
A couple of weeks ago I gave up on CM 10.1 and put on 10.2 to get past this problem. I didn't have time to do a full rebuild of my environment and only things that Titanium could Hypershell restore was put back. Xposed was one of the many things that was not installed. So I am not sure if this problem persists on 10.2 but at this point I am not going back to 10.2 now that I got this worked out.
Someone can tag this one closed/resolved and I hope this helps someone.
I'm stuck with 24 corrupted home structures that I can't delete. Google knows it's a bug but has offered no timeline on a fix. Right now there are no home automation accounts connected to my account or the Google home app. Previously the only home automation app I had installed was the kasa app for a smart plug. But I have since disconnected it from my account and removed the device from the home app. When I look on my kids phones in the home app, I do not see any home automation connected to their account. Neither of their accounts have the option to remove the extra empty home structures which cannot be deleted from my account. Also, my backup email account, which I used to try and fix this whole issue, does not show the undeletable home structures. I completely deleted all information from my Google home app and my kids Google home apps before I factory reset all the devices and set everything back up. When I set everything back up, I started with only my account. And at that time the undeletable home structures were already there, before I linked my kids accounts. So, unlinking them (from voice match) does not help to remove the undeletable home structures.
Right before I noticed the undeletable home structures, the main things that I can think of are:
I removed myself as a home member (there where no home members in the home structure).
I deleted all devices and home structures.
I factory reset the device (Google home speaker).
I cleared all data for home app, Google app, Google play services, Google play store, and Google services framework. I disabled all of those apps that I could and reinstalled the updated versions (there was no way to completely deactivate or uninstall Google play services on my phone).
For my online information, I went into my Google account and deleted every single thing that I could, from my timeline history to all of my web activity, etc... I also went in to connected apps, and deleted the item that said Google home as well as the item that said Google Assistant connected device. Now that everything is set up again, in connected apps, there is an item for Google Assistant connected device, but there is no item for Google home.
I removed my Google account from my phone and re-added it.
I factory reset my wireless router.
Finally, I also went into my Google drive and deleted my backup for my phone before I factory reset it.
I really believe that the issue has to be a bug with the home app and refreshing the data on the server. Perhaps it has something to do with the fact that I removed all home members, and then deleted the devices & Home structures, as well as factory reset the devices.
Also, I really wonder if it has something to do with different versions of the home app. For example when I was troubleshooting, I tried logging in on a different device. On my old phone, I was logged in with an older version of the home app and an older Android system (Android 5 lollipop). However, even if I log back in on that device, there is no option to see the undeletable home structures. So I have no way to delete them even from an old version of the app. Also, when I first linked my kids accounts, it was on their tablets, which was using the older version of the home app, as well as an older Android system (Android 5 lollipop). Now they are using the newer version of the Google home app on their phones which have Android 7. And I'm using the newest version of the Google home app on Android 9 pie on my pixel 2 XL.
I'd really like to get this figured it out before I continue to add my other devices to the Google home app. Any help/feedback would be appreciated!
If nothing else, why can't they just have an option to manually delete any home structures from within the Google home app? There are separate areas for devices, rooms, and groups (within a home structure). Why can't they add a different area that lists all of the homes you are a member of, with the option to remove yourself and delete the home structure? Right now my account says that I am a home member of 25 different home structures. But I'm actually only a home member of one home structure. When I click on one of the empty home structures, it just sends me back to the one working structure that I have. So I have absolutely no way to delete the empty home structures. Even adding an option to completely delete all Google home app data from the servers would be a great option, that many people would appreciate.
Here is Google's official response so far:
"Our Engineering Team has informed that they don't have the option to wipe the account and it's not recommended. For now our workaround for this fix is using an alternate account."
Here is my reply back:
At this thread (https://support.google.com/googlehome/thread/624656?hl=en) there were others with the same issue and the problem was fixed by someone at support fixing their broken Google Home data in the cloud/server/back-end. They must have that option. Why could they fix it for others but not for me?
Why would it not be recommended? It would just be like starting over for the Google Home data. In fact, why isn't that an option yet, to be able to easily delete/reset all Google Home data? There are options to delete everything else account related (web activity, timeline, etc...). I think we should be able to delete/reset our Google Home data too.
How does using a different account help? I want to be able to access my own information and services.
Will there still be a definite fix for my issue? When will that fix happen?
Sorry for my absence in posting. My problem has actually been fixed since March 13th, but not before some work on my end. I actually searched around and emailed the Google Cast/Google Home Developers and got a reply from one very helpful Developer. We exchanged emails, I provided lots of details, and he was able to look into my account and eventually fix the issue. It took a couple weeks but eventually the broken home structures were gone. I still don't know what caused it or how they fixed it. I asked about other people with the same issue, and he replied that they were working on a fix for everybody but it could take a while. Hopefully now the issue is fixed. I don't want to give out his email because he was nice enough to help me and I don't want tons of people trying to contact him. So please don't ask. But have hope that if your issue isn't solved yet, there really is a team working on issues and there really should be a fix at some point.
