Let's take a look at the cases of errors in Google account synchronization on Android devices.

Reasons for error syncing Android and Google

When Android does not synchronize information with the Google server, you need to look for the reasons first of all in the operation of your gadget. Errors can also occur on Google's side, but quite rarely. Such failures are promptly detected and eliminated.

Users most often encounter a notification that indicates a failure, the exact reason for which is not clear. Perhaps it is with user actions or with incorrect settings for logging in. Devices with unofficial firmware can harm the system, so they will have to be removed and the gadget returned to its original state.

The most unpleasant situations, when a Google account sync error is displayed on Android, may be "frozen sync". In this case, the whole system "hangs", and the error can be corrected after restarting the tablet or smartphone.

Synchronization error may appear due to incorrect input of personal data (login and password). You must enter the correct information that was received during registration. In an emergency, you can recover your password.

Sometimes errors in synchronization are due to incorrect system settings. You can return to the factory settings, but in most cases this is not required. It is enough to go to the settings and examine the included services.

Synchronization must be enabled for all accounts. First, you can deselect the services that require authentication, and then restart the gadget. Then, on the newly turned on device, you need to go to the accounts section and check the boxes against the corresponding services and services.

In some situations, you will need to disable 2-level authentication in your account security settings. You can also use the transfer of information in the background and auto-sync.

If Android refuses to sync photos, mail, contacts and other information, follow these steps:

• We reboot the device.
• We check the stability of the Internet connection. We connect to Wi-Fi, if possible.
• We check that synchronization is enabled and the parameters are configured correctly.
• We delete Google account and add it again.

To delete an account, go to "Settings", "Accounts", then to "Google" and call up an additional menu (on the top right, there is a button in the form of 3 buttons). Now we press "Delete".

While deleting accounts, no data will be lost as the account remains intact. We reboot the gadget, and the next time we turn it on, add the Google profile again, specify the username and password.

If errors keep repeating during synchronization, you should add another Google account. If other accounts do not work properly, you need to reflash the gadget. It is recommended to use only official firmwares, since custom builds have their own drawbacks, which can lead to various system failures.

How to enable Google sync with Android?

To enable Google sync, you first need to go to Android Settings. Then we scroll down the settings until we reach the block with the "Personal data" settings. Go to "Accounts" or in other versions of "Accounts".

Then a list will be displayed with the accounts that you have logged into earlier on your Android. To enable synchronization, select a Google account. If there is no Google account in the list, then you are not included in it.

In this situation, you should click on "Add account", this button is located at the bottom of the list, and then follow the instructions displayed on the screen.

After selecting a Google account, the user will be shown the synchronization settings for this account. Here you can disable or enable synchronization of many services, such as Google Keep Notes, Gmail, Chrome web browser, and more. To enable synchronization, move the switch opposite the required services to the "Enabled" position.

To start an immediate synchronization of your account, you need to click on the button in the upper right corner of the screen. A menu will open where you should select "Synchronize".

By default, information from applications, contacts and calendar is synchronized. If you want to automatically sync photos with Google servers, you need to download the Google Photos app. Going to the application settings, the line "Startup and synchronization" is available. When activated, photos will be sent to the cloud storage.

Like most other operating systems, Android is not ideal. In it, from time to time, various failures may occur. Especially such failures can occur when installing applications not taken from PlayMarket. Also, problems can arise when installing unofficial firmware. Account sync error is one of the most common. Let's try to find out how you can get rid of this error.

Account sync error: common failures

First of all, it is worth noting that in the event of such problems, if the user is not always able to some of the OS's capabilities, you should not immediately blame everything on the device itself or the operating system. Most often, users are faced with such a message when there is some kind of failure, the exact cause of which is not fully understood. However, it should be noted that errors of this kind are usually associated with incorrect login settings, as well as with the actions of the user himself. In this review, we will not consider gadgets with unofficial firmware. In this case, the device may itself harm the operating system. Unofficial firmware will have to be removed and the device returned to its original state.

What to do if an account sync error occurs?

In a situation where an error occurs when syncing a Google Android account on a tablet or phone, the most unpleasant moment is "frozen sync". As practice shows, in this case the whole system "hangs". An elementary reboot of the device helps to fix the crash. This helps in most cases. Suffice it to recall how frozen programs start working again in Windows upon restart.

How to fix the error?

Probably, an error in synchronizing a Google Android account on a smartphone or tablet may be caused by an incorrect password and login. Here you just need to correctly enter the data received during registration. The email address in the G-mail is used as a login. You can also try to recover your password.

How to check sync options

In some cases, an error with syncing an account on Google Android may be associated with incorrect settings of the system itself. You can try to return the device to factory settings, but in most cases such drastic measures are not required. You just need to go to the settings and check the included services. Synchronization should usually be enabled for all accounts. First you need to uncheck all services that require authentication, and then reboot the device. Then, when the device is turned on again, you must go to the accounts section again and put a checkmark in front of the corresponding services, including the browser, data transfer, and the like. In some cases, it is mandatory to disable the 2-level authentication system in the account security settings. In this case, it is necessary to use automatic synchronization and transfer of information in the background.

Deleting an account

If all the methods described above do not help and the error related to account synchronization appears again, you will have to go to extreme measures, namely, to delete the existing account. To do this, you must use the settings menu. Here you need to select the accounts section. Pay attention to the Google account. Log in, enter your Gmail address and confirm the deletion using the menu command or the button below. Now you need to restart your devices. After this action, if there is an Internet connection, the system will offer to either create a new account, or use the existing registration data. You must enter your username and password and confirm your choice. In the event that this method does not help to fix the problem, you will have to create a new account. At the same time, you can forget about restoring your contact list and previously installed applications.

Conclusion

Errors related to syncing your Google Account are fairly common. You can deal with them using the most simple means and methods, it is enough to use the mobile gadget itself. In this case, no connection to a personal computer with access to the installed control program is required. It is also worth paying attention to the fact that this article did not address the problem of crashes that may occur on devices with unofficial firmware. The thing is that when installing unofficial updates, a rather serious problem may appear related to their safe removal. This issue requires special attention and utmost care. Otherwise, you can bring the system to an inoperative state.

Most often, users are faced with a message indicating a failure, the exact cause of which has not yet been clarified, but it can be assumed that it is connected exclusively with the actions of the user himself, as well as with incorrect login settings. Now gadgets with unofficial firmware will not be considered, since they themselves can harm the system, and they will have to be removed, returning the device to its original state.

Google Android account sync error: what to do?

The most frustrating situation when a Google Android account sync error appears on a phone or tablet may be the so-called "frozen sync".

In this case, as practice shows, the whole system "hangs", and it is possible to fix the failure by the most elementary reboot of the device. In most cases, this helps (remember frozen programs in Windows - they work again on reboot).

Correcting a syntax error

It is likely that an error in syncing a Google Android account on a tablet or smartphone may be caused by incorrectly entering your personal data (login and password).

Here you just need to enter the correct entries received during registration (the G-mail address is used as a login). As a last resort, you can try to recover your password.

Checking the synchronization parameters

Sometimes the Google Android account sync error is related to incorrect settings in the system itself. You can, of course, try to return to the factory settings, but in most cases this is not required. You just need to go into the settings and look at the included services.

Generally, sync should be turned on for all accounts. First, you can uncheck all services that require authentication, and then restart the device. After that, when the device is re-turned on, you should re-enter the accounts section and check the boxes next to the corresponding services and services, including data transfer, browser, etc.

In some cases, it is imperative to disable the two-level authentication system in the account security settings. At the same time, it is also worth using auto-sync and data transfer in the background.

Removing an account

If all the methods above do not help, and the Google Android account sync error appears again, you will have to take extreme measures - deleting the existing "account".

For this, the settings menu is used, in which the accounts section is selected. Here we are interested in a Google account. We enter it, enter the Gmail address and confirm the deletion with the button below or with a menu command.

Now, as is probably already clear, the device should be rebooted, after which, if there is an Internet connection and an attempt to enter Google services, the system will offer to either create a new record or use the existing registration data. Enter your username and password and confirm your choice. If this does not help (for example, on devices with installed firmware), you will have to create a new "account", however, there can be no question of restoring the list of contacts or previously installed applications.

Conclusion

Although errors of this type are very common, they can be dealt with using the simplest methods and means, which are not too complicated. It is enough to use only your mobile gadget. In this case, no connection to a computer with access to the installed control program is required.

In addition, it is worth noting that the problem of crashes that occur on devices with firmware was not specifically considered here. The fact is that when installing unofficial updates, a rather serious problem of their safe removal can arise, which requires special attention and maximum care. Otherwise, the entire system can be brought to a state of complete inoperability.

As for the rest, the standard tools considered are the simplest and do not cause any difficulties for any user. Finally, it can be noted that you can still delete the data and cache of the service itself, but these parameters are related to the account synchronization error, as they say, insofar as.
