Has anybody else problems with Google accounts? (update 8 and 9)

Hi all!

I have 3 main problems which might be connected.

  • After creating a new Google account in the settings, I always get the message that I have to authenticate again. And again. And again... (Could this be a problem due to my two Google accounts: my main account, which I choose during authentication and the Youtube-Google account?) If I restart the Jolla phone or ignore the message, then sometimes later everything works.
  • But, the calendar app has still a problem with my Google account. I have several Google calendars and often only one of them is shown.
  • It also seems that the account randomly goes online/offline.First, I thought that this may be a problem of the change from mobile internet to WIFI or no WIFI and mobile internet coverage. But, If I have internet connection then it is often impossible to go online with the Google account (and also with my Facebook account).

I tried to delte the account and recreate it. This has not helped.

Thanks for any ideas to solve this problem! Cheers

Update: Since I removed another e-mail account which couldn't sync e-mails, I do not notice the calendar issue.
