After factory data reset, Google calender won't sync

Have completed TWO factory data resets on HTC Thunderbolt. Once w/deleting SD Card and once without. Still cannot get the calendar to sync past 30 days! I asked Big Red about it and they told me an "in house" HTC programmer would call me. That never happened and this was two weeks ago. . Can anyone suggest how to get my calendar back?

Hi, Tweebolt!
I'm sorry you did not receive that call back! I want to see your calendar working properly for you! When you go into Settings>Accounts & Sync>Gmail/Google> are you seeing Calendar sync greyed out or checked? If greyed out I've got some tricks I want you to give a try. What I suggest is going into Settings>Account, then creating a new Gmail account (this is nothing you have to keep, we're only going to use it for five minutes). Once created, go into the Accounts & Sync, select the new account and ensure Calendar is set to sync. Then go into your Calendar application, tap Menu>Settings>ensure your real Gmail account exists and add a new event. Next, you'll go back to Account & Sync, and you should have the option to check Calendar sync under the real Gmail account. Check it to initiate the sync. After all is said and done and the sync is complete, go under Accounts & Sync and remove that fake account you set up. I've been this jump start a Gmail account countless times, and its a lot of steps but takes 5-10 minutes to complete. Keep me posted!

Re-installing Adobe PS Touch after a factory data reset

I previously purchase PS Touch for my Acer A500 Iconia tablet. After doing a factory data reset I went to the Play Store to download it again and they want to charge me another $9.99. I shouldn't have to pay for it twice. What do I need to do?

Hi,
If you are sure that you are using the same Google account you should contact Google.
You can always log in at Google Play with that account to see if it's still there and if it's still compatible with your device (minimum requirements is Android 3.1).
Check the purchase mail receipt if you are unsure about which account was used.
Thanks,
Ignacio

I have a replacement Note 3. My Vodafone SIM, which worked fine in the original, fails in the replacement. When I try to access Settings, the menu briefly flashes, then the phone reverts to the home page. Will a Factory Data Reset fix this?

Hi,
I have a Note 3 and a Vodafone SIM that are not playing well together.
The history is:
I got my Note 3 over 2 years ago. We visited Italy 2 years ago and I bought a Vodafone sim at a Vodafone outlet. Everything worked perfectly during that trip and a subsequent trip to France.
Last October, I had to replace the Note 3 because the camera was failing. I had insurance, so the insurance company sent me a refurbished Note 3. When I tried to use the SIM last December, the Note 3 had problems. When I put the SIM in and started the Note 3, the phone recognized the sim (but gave me an error that, according to Verizon, is spurious). I could make phone calls but I could not access the data network. In order to access the data network, you have to go into Settings. More Settings, Mobile Networks and set the Access Point Name.
With the replacement Note 3, I cannot access Settings. As soon as I try to access Settings (with the Vodafone SIM installed), the Settings menu appears and then immediately the home screen comes up. After working with Verizon for over an hour, I was able to get into Settings and set the access point name by booting into Safe mode. But as soon as I rebooted into 'normal' mode, Settings failed and I could not access its menu (to turn on wifi, for example). There are a couple of other apps that did the same thing - but I cannot remember which ones.
I have talked to Vodafone - they have no clue. I talked to a Samsung rep I ran into at Best Buy, he thought the Vodafone SIM might be corrupted. And now a Verizon tech I talked to last week thinks it is a firmware problem on the phone and I should do a Factory Data Reset.
Have you ever heard of this problem? What do you think might be causing it?
Thanks for your help.

On2CO, I'm glad you have reached out to us today. Thank you so much for the very detail description on what is going on with the device. Sounds like there might be an issue with an application that might be causing these issues. The reason I say that is, when the phone is in Safe Mode you are able to access the Settings screens with no issues. While in Safe Mode that does block all 3rd party applications from running on the phone. I would suggest on trying to back up the device and perform a factory reset: http://spr.ly/6-182Vuo (you would want to make sure to uncheck Automatic Restore in step 3). Once the reset is complete try to see if you can get into Settings. Then, I would recommend on adding 3rd party applications back on to the device one by one to see if we can find what app might be causing this issue. Please keep us posted if you have any further questions or concerns.

Google calender and google contacts won't sync AGA...

I am getting very tired of Nokia now!
Actually I've had it with Nokia!
One last Change,
My wife and I have now received Nokia phones number 4 and 5 from the care center.
I now have a E7-00 with a poorly responsive touchscreen,
my wife now has a N8, wich just again is different than her previous.
I'm still haven't been able to find out whether the touchscreen is broken or...
Namely because I can hardly use the phone, again google calender and google contacts won't sync.
Got it to work last time around, but things (espacialy with Nokia) change.
Can somebody, Please, give me the page with the CORRECT instructrons? for the e7-00 and the N8?
I am very tired of clicking pages wich do not contain the anwsers.
Meanwhile, my friends and colleagues laugh at me, with their smasung's, HTC 's, LG 's, and iPhone's.
Which all sync (nearly) hassle-free with all they want.
Help

Hi Gucky66,
Thanks for your post and welcome to the forum.
Please reset and update the phone to fix any software issues you're experiencing on both your E7 and N8.
Connect your phone to Nokia Suite and create a back up via Tools > Back up.
Now disconnect the phone from Nokia Suite and enter *#7370# and default security code 12345 into your phone. Once the phone has rebooted, please reconnect with Nokia Suite and click on the green arrow icon where you will be able to update the phone to it's latest software version. If no update is listed, please reinstall the current software. This option is displayed in blue.
When the updated has completed, please restore the back up via Restore > Back up.
You should now have a fully working phone. If you're still experiencing difficulties with your Email account, please delete the account and reconfigure, you can do this via Menu > Mail > Select the email account > Long press > Delete mailbox.
If the above doesn't work, please contact your local Care line where they will be able to look at your previous repairs and look for a solution.
Please get back to me if you manage to resolve the issue, otherwise I can provide further support.

What exactly happens when I do a Factory data reset?

I want to revert my Xperia Active to the state where in it was how I bought it. All my added apps removed, all the default apps are reinstalled, the SD clear from any extra settings that other apps may have left behind while uninstalling. All in all I want to "reformat" it. Will Factory data reset do this?

Question 1:
Will the default apps on the Active (aka the SportyPalPro and friends) be reinstalled? I know that I can always redownload them from the market, but as i said, just like how it was bought. The Factory data reset displays a checkbox that says it would wipe out even the SD card. So what about that?
Question 2:
I followed this tutorial (http://androidforums.com/3529664-post5.html) to free up some load off my internal space. Does this have any gravity on the Factory resetting? In essence, I remapped Android to make it install the apps to SD by default.

How to reset phone to its original settings (not the Factory data reset) without erasing user data??

Droid SD & Phone Storage - Factory Data Reset?

Will doing a "Factory data reset" erase my contacts and/or photos from my phone?

None of us know. It has been going on for weeks. People are waking up to no contacts at all on their phone. But if I make changes and sync, I get a notice the sync was successful and nothing has changed.
I have contacts where no matter what I do to get their BD correct, it is always changed back to another date. Tried on the phone and sync. Tried online and save, it immediately reverts to another date. I have even attempted to delete the contact and re-add her and her daughter, birthday still changes. Frustrating the heck out of me.
So just be aware you may not get the contacts back automatically or correctly.

My iPod date resets to 1969 everytime I sync! Help!

Everytime I sync w/my iMac, my iPod date resets to 1969. Then when I adjust the date, a thousand (seemingly) alarms fly up for all the events I've missed since 1969.... Help!

Have you checked to make sure the Date and Time are set correctly on your iPod Touch? Did you also make sure that the time zone was correct as well?
I'm assuming the date, time, and time zone are also set correctly on your iMac?
Have you tried restoring the iPod from a backup in iTunes to see if that helps?

After updating to itunes 9, ipod won't sync

after updating to itunes 9 when trying to sync my ipod classic 160gb i get a message saying cant read ipod disc with exclamation point. help!

If you have corrupted songs in your itunes music folder it will stop when it gets to that song. Usually it will give you an error message. Delete the corrupted song and try again from the song after the corrupted one. Also, getting a call or text in the middle of a sync will interrupt it I have noticed.

E72 after factory settings reset

Hi,
By mistake last night I lost everything from my phone. The only thing that I have is half of the pictures. Here is something strange. I see only the half of the pictures and when let's say I want to edit a picture that I see in, after I selected, it appears another picture that I don't usualy see.
The reset was done by that code *#xxxx#
Thank you.

I found my pictures if I go to memory card/images, but I cant see them in media/gallery. Why some of the pictures I can see on Media/Gallery and others not? I know that all the pictures are on the memory card.

UC540 issues after factory password reset

Hi All
Our companies UC540 BRI phone system had username and password set by previous system admin, who has now left the business and refused to provide us with the details. It has fallen to me to resolve this and I followed some fairly straight forward instructions to connect through the console port using PuTTY to break into the bootstrap and reset them. All was going well but then we had a power outage half way through the process and now all I get is garbled text in the console port, see example below.
"b▒▒$礤▒▒▒▒懤▒▒▒&▒$@$# ▒▒▒F▒▒▒$▒䅇▒▒秥▒▒▒Ǉ▒▒▒▒b▒▒▒ń▒▒▒Ĥ▒ť▒▒▒▒D▒GC▒ ▒▒▒Ť▒▒▒▒▒▒Ĥ▒▒▒▒▒▒䅆▒ħfb"▒▒ǆaBc▒▒▒▒▒C▒▒▒▒愤▒ĄĄ▒ńǇ▒Ć▒▒▒▒Ň▒ĥ▒C▒▒▒▒愤▒ĄĄ▒ńǇ▒Ć▒▒▒▒Ň▒ĥ▒CCC▒▒▒▒ǆ▒▒凅▒▒▒▒▒▒d▒熧▒▒▒䄥礄兄"
Things tried
When I hit "CTRL" + "Break" in the console terminal it still stops what I assume is the bootup sequence, but the output in the console is unintelligible (mix of chinese and english characters and symbols.
When I type commands they are also unintelligble and don't match the keystrokes.
I have tried adjusting the baud rate as I read it can cause this, so I modified it from 9600 to 115200 and the result was even more uninteligible.
Flow control was also set to "None".
Firstly have we bricked the system, or is simply a matter of uploading new firm ware via a TFTP session and can anyone please guide me through the process of reflashing/resetting the UC540 BRI, or point me where I can find this info?
Thanks in advance
Daniel

Hi there , Thank you for visiting the HP Support Forums and Welcome! This is a great site to get answers and ask questions. I seen your post on the HP Support Forums. I understand from your post that you are having an issue with the Wireless Internet Connection being intermittent. Do you by chance have Bluetooth? Is it on? I have found a couple of documents for you to use to troubleshoot the Wireless issues you are experiencing. The first document I found for you is called Using Automated Troubleshooting (Windows 10, 8). This document describes how to use the automated troubleshooting tools in Windows. These tools use a combination of installed and online applications made to detect and resolve many computer problems, such as problems with networking, system performance, and hardware devices. Although automated troubleshooting cannot find and correct every problem, it is a useful tool that can often save you time and effort. The second document I found for you is called Troubleshooting Wireless Network and Internet (Windows 8). The steps in this document provide tools that have been found helpful in solving many problems that can occur with wireless network and Internet connections. The reason I asked you about Bluetooth is because I found a document called Intermittent Wireless Connection with Intel Centrino Wireless-N 2230 and Advanced-N 6235 Bluetooth Combo Wireless Modules (Microsoft Windows 8).
Please follow these provided troubleshooting steps, re-post and let me know how everything went. Thank you! Have a great day!

Re: Droid SD & Phone Storage - Factory Data Reset?

How do you stop your phone from sending a single text message multiple times until you have to turn off your phone!?!!!! This should not happen. And a week ago I had to go down to the local Verizon store to fix duplicate contacts from going to even up to 9 or 10 copies of one name. After spending my valuable time (2 Hrs.+) there, I had to leave and it still wasn't resolved. I told a manager of the store my frustration and he just walked away from me. I'm canceling my account. And the fees to break my account agreement should be waived for all the time and problems I have had with Verizon! You did not live up to promises of a great company and great phone...I lived up to paying my payments. And why did my real name show up when I messaged this?!!!!! (As if I care anymore).

Good afternoon magmae8!
I would certainly be disappointed to see you leave us unhappy, especially for what should be an easy fix. I do apologize for the length of time you had to spend in the store. Verizon Wireless does value your time and always work with a sense of urgency. Please send me (AdamE_VZW) a direct message so I can better assist and provide a solution.
Thanks,
