Google account isn't syncing on Android. Emails or calendar are stuck
Your phone lost the conversation with Google's servers. This is a connection issue or your password changed and your phone doesn't know it. Toggling airplane mode off and on fixes it in under a minute.
When your Google account stops syncing, your phone has lost the connection with Google's servers. The most common reasons are a weak internet connection, a password change your phone doesn't know about, or a glitch in the background services. Toggling your connection or re-entering your password brings everything back.
