Hi Everyone, I search everywhere and couldnt find an answer for this. So here goes.


Calendar

I was syncing and unsyncing with my samsung to google calendars, then the next day I checked, I realized all my events disappeared.
I did not erase anything yet all my events were gone.

I did notice that something was occurring during the period that I lost my data.
I saw that my default Samsung browser on my smart phone went on a refresh loop on google home page. This was an issue on googles end and was resolved eventually.
This was one of google's problems. There would be an issue with google recognizing me logging on the google home page and gmail. This lasted for a week. I wonder if that caused my data to disappear?

There are a few links below describing what happened. I'm wondering if this is an issue with Google, samsung+google, or syncing in general.
if I can recover my lost events that would be great!

It seems like a lot of them has to do with smartphones syncing, which is what I did. Even if there isn

Hmmm thanks. I'm thinking it's a Google issue. Ever since then I did not sync with Google calendar.
I wish I understood what happened.

For the data usage. I'm using a galaxy s3 and it's one of its options to check Ur data consumption. Its not an app and it was there stock. Before any flashing.

I'm aware. I was wrong earlier, I didn't mean "app" in the sense you could launch it from your app menu, but "app" from your settings menu that monitors data consumption.

In my experience with this app, I would check it (I have no idea why because I have unlimited data w/Sprint) before flashing a stock ROM then whenever I got everything set up on the new ROM I would check the app and notice that it had reset.

I don't know if that's the case that's happening with you but that's what happened to me. If I may ask, why do you need to monitor your data usage?

When I lost it info. I didn't flash anything. I'm more bothered by the random clearing than anything else.
I have 6 GB limit. But I can always get another app. I just wanna know if this is an issue with my phone or os bug etc.

Hm. That is strange seeing as how you didn't change ROMs and this happened. Random question, feel free to choose not to answer if you wish, but was that 6GB limit set by your phone carrier or by household 'rules'? I'm aware Sprint doesn't have caps, which is why your statement sparked that question. Unless you tether a LOOOOOOT (less O's in that 'lot' if you tether LTE, lol) you probably won't hit 6GB in a month
