Description
Hello, I'm experiencing a problem with Google Contacts sync. I just noticed that stopped working with a "bad request" error (and it causes nothing syncs anymore, even the calendars!), and if I try to reauthenticate, I can't complete the procedure due to an error (a missing parameter error) on the return page.
Unfortunately, I can't see what the specific error is because with "-v debug" there are too many lines and it goes outside of the screen :(
Google Calendar sync works "flawlessly" if I disable contacts sync.
Anyone have the same problem?

Start by reproducing Google Contacts synchronization and reauthentication with debug output, focusing on the missing-parameter error on the return page. Done means contacts authentication and synchronization work again without disabling calendar synchronization.
