This is steps,you can follow it.
1.Open your device's Settings app .

3.Tap Accounts.
4.Select Google (If you have more than one account on your device, tap the one you want.
5.See if the option to sync contacts is enabled.
Anyone else having trouble syncing contacts through google? I am on MIUI 9.6 China ROM, and I have installed the Google Contacts app and Google Contacts Sync from APKMirror (August 7th Version). Currently, when I try to restore contacts, it says that "No contacts are backed up to this account." However, when I go to Google.contacts.com, I can see all my contacts. Is the restore within the Google Contacts app searching a different location for the contacts? Thank you.
delete the gapps you installed manually and try the GoogleInstaller_V3.apk, for me contact sync and everything google related is working fine.

Is that the one that comes from the Mi Store when you search "Google"? I tried that one, but it didn't have contact sync.

i used this and it included google contacts sync app (and its working fine)
install everything (except playstore), playstore just download, decline install - reboot - install missing playstore.
Are you already install Google contacts too from play store? If not try to install it then turn on the sync
Had this problem as well, but fixed it. Make sure to set permissions for both the Google Contacts app as well as the Google Contacts Sync app.
This is the step to sync contacts from Google account to phone.
1.Open your device's Settings app .
2.Tap Cloud and Accounts.
3.Tap Accounts.
4.Select Google (If you have more than one account on your device, tap the one you want.
5.See if the option to sync contacts is enabled.
key here is to go to the App settings, and make sure all the permissions for Google Contacts Sync are checked, also change Battery to No Restrictions
What finally worked for me was to follow the instructions to download Googleinstallerv03.apk mentioned above... but when going into Account -> Google Account there was no "Contacts" setting...
BUT I went into Xiaomi's Contacts app and in there I chose to sync contacts from a mail account. Gmail was one of the options. I had to sign in again and now I have The Google account and a IMAP/POP3 account pointing to the same mail but it was able to sync all the contacts AND in Settings -> Account -> Google Account now it says "Contacts" and it syncs correctly..
So that worked for me on a Xiaomi Mi CC9 bought in China with the Chinese stable ROM
I couldn't get this working on my Redmi K20 Pro...
I used the Contacts app's bluetooth import feature instead.
I faced to that before, I think you need to make sure you installed a right google service. I found some time the google installer install a wrong google service, you may try to fix the problem by re-install the google service. hope it help!
You can also restore contacts from device directly.
Step 1: Enter the "Settings" on the device.
Step 2. Choose "Accounts & Sync" under the "Settings" section and elect the "Add account" option.
Step 3. Tap "Google" from the list and then follow the prompts to proceed to the next step.
Hi everyone,
I notice that my phone contacts do not sync with my Google contacts. If adding a contact from the PC it appears to my phone`s contacts. But adding it from the phone, even week later I can`t find it in my Google contacts.
I reinstall my google account, sync manually few times, checked the "Display Preferences", checked Google account settings (Sync Contacts option is checked) - zilch, nada.
Android Version: 9
EMUI Ver: 9.0.0 by Vodaphone
Would you give me a hand with this problem, please
Did you verify than when you add a contact on the phone you choose your Google account and not local/Huawei ID?

Ups, no That`s it! Thank you!
Im on chinese K20 Pro
Updated to Miui 12 a few days ago.
Since the miui 12 update, whatsapp loses contacts. And i had to go to "new chat" and "refresh" in order to have it show contact names and not just their numers.
In order to fix that, i fiddled with some settings and broken something. Contacts are not showing up and google contacts are not syncing.
In "settings" "accounts and sync" i have "basic google services" which is checked and "google" which has a message "Sync is currently experiencing problems. It will be back shortly." And i have an exclamation mark at contacts, where it says last synced june 29. If i press "sync now", contacts still dont sync.
In "phone", all recents dont have contact names. Same in messages app and whatsapp.
In "phone", "contacts" shows 0 contacts, "All contacts" shows "google 0 people".
Permissions
contacts, google account manager and google contacts sync are set to autostart and to modify and delete contacts.
Any help is welcomed. Please dont suggest factory reset.

Have you tried removing your Google account and re-adding it?

Maybe you are up to something. I removed my account, basic google services left checked, and when i sign in i get the message> "Couldnt sing in. There was a problem communicating with google servers. Try again later."
I deleted data of google framework, play store, play services and managed to add my account. Still have the same message about sync problems. Contacts has exclamation mark and last sync date has changed to today, but it still dont have the contacts.

Not sure what you messed around with in regards to contacts but it's broken play services, only thing I can think is to update play services, you can get it on apk mirror and see if that makes a difference

I have a Chinese k20 pro my version is 20.21.17 upto you if you try that version or a newer version

Check what version you have, go to settings, apps, top right hand side click 3 dots and select show all apps, search for google play services, 1st clear cache and data, if that doesn't work, uninstall play services and then install the one you downloaded or use the version you had already installed

Ok. So i deleted data from play services and managed to install the version i downloaded.
Syncing still has problems and contacts still has exclamation mark. My contacts still arent showing up.

What exactly did you change originally? Only thing I can think of is that Google contacts app settings may not be pointing to your Gmail account, go to your Google contacts app, top right hand corner click on the icon next to 3 dots and make sure it is signed in with your Gmail account

Im confused which contacts app? I have "contacts" and dialer and contacts. In "contacts" contacts are shown, in dialer and contacts they arent.

(i noticed with each restart keyboard canges from gboard to sogou and gboard gets deactivated. Whats up with that?)
I was changing permissions to phone and contacts for whatsapp and then for google.
In "contacts" app i can see the image from my google account in the top. i can search there for my contacts, but down it says no contacts. when i swipe down i get this message> https://imgur.com/a/gBQyrz2

Hmm not sure what's going on with your keyboard tbh, I've never seen that behaviour before..
Within the contacts app, click on top left hand icon and see if it gives you contacts and suggestions, it should give you the number of contacts, tap on that if it gives the correct amount, of it doesn't in the same place click on settings, and then contact sync settings and select your Gmail account, it should give you 2 bits, click in manage settings for automatically sync Google contacts and make sure sync is enabled

In the 1st pic in Google contacts, where is your Google account? the account connected is your mi account, and your other account is a yahoo one, go to add account from the 1st screenshot and add your Gmail account, I'm assuming your contacts are syncing with that right?

It should look like this, once you've added your Gmail account from where it says add another account in Google contacts

Ah okay, select that instead if the mi account, the top account should be your yahoo account and not mi account

after updating to the recent MIUI 12 every time I plug my phone into the charger I get this message:
"google play services" is trying to delete your contacts. This action can't be carried out by third-party apps. to delete contacts, use MIUI's built-in contacts app instead.
