Help Google won't sync on my Android

Hi I rooted my phone a while back, It was working fine for a long time But I downloaded this app called ''Freedom", it's an app that allows you to get unlimited in app purchases for free using a freecard that tricks the system to thinking you actually paid for the purchase... Something happened and I thought Google caught me and banned me but that isn't the case cause I called them. It froze one day and I just reset the phone. Google market wasn't working, so I deleted my account off the phone and tried reinstalling it. I think I lost some important info to use my Google account on my phone...When I tried syncing my Google account on my phone It keeps saying "couldn't sign in, can't establish a reliable connection to the server, this could be a temporary problem or your Android device may not be provisioned for data services, if it continues call customer care",I did, they said nothings wrong on their side.
So now I lost all my contacts cause they're all on my Gmail which won't sync. I already tried reinstalling google play but won't, I cleared my caches, nothings working. I need some help please, I really hate to reset the phone. would flashing the Gapps work?
 
Cracked 'free' software is simply stealing developer's hard work. It's against forum rules to assist with such activities and no one here will help you with that.

Cracked software is also notorious for including malware, as you found out. You got what you paid for. Congratulations.
 
My guess would be that your magical "freedom" app has hijacked your DNS and is redirecting your internet traffic through questionable servers which may have gone offline for various reasons, none of which would be very good for you.

Since your phone was rooted, a reset may not be enough. You'll have to flash factory firmware to be safe. I would also highly recommend you immediately change the passwords for every account you had on that phone as they may now be in the hands of less than reputable individuals ... and PLEASE stay the heck away from those "get sh#t for free" apps. They are never the deal you think they are.

Crash is right that it is against forum rules to help and discuss cracked apps, but we will try and help you fix the damage they have caused and hope to educate you as to the risk and false economy of "free".
 
M service hasn't been I trusted In any way, i don't think there is malware either. I do have Avg Pro app for that. Something or app cause this. Need more info and a fix.
 
AVG will only identify apps that can be identified by current definitions as malware. May of these cracked apps with root privileges will replace system files with their own modified ones that fly under the radar of most anti-malware apps. The fix is to wipe and flash the factory firmware back to your phone and start from scratch.
