JM7 has a HUGE delay in sending out emails by Gmail app - Galaxy S I9000 Android Development

hi guys, I flashed my phone to JM7 2 days ago. Everything works fine and the phone is a lot faster. BUT, when sending out emails by the Gmail app, it delays for up to a few hours... I tried WIFI, 3G, with/without attachment, to different address, all delays.
The samsung email app works fine, it sends out when you press send. (I assume that is from samsung which is called 'Email', the icon is an envelopewith a green @).
Anybody please help.
Thanks.

Go to Settings/Applications/Manage Applications, then Menu/Filter/All.
Find Gmail and Gmail Storage, clear data/clear cache for both. Reboot the phone.
Then it'll need to resync with Gmail. Sending should work as normal after that.
This is usually only a problem if you've done a restore of some sort after updating the firmware. Sometimes changing SIM cards can also cause the same problem.

Working just fine here, I don't think this has something to do with JM7. I don't have any plausible theory to offer instead though, sorry.

JM7, GMail works just fine for me.

Gmail email delete problem

Lately, as I delete emails after I have read them within the Gmail app, they will show back up in the Inbox a little while later, sometimes as new/unread mail and sometimes showing as unread emails in the Inbox counter but not actually showing in the Inbox.
I've done several things to try and fix it:
- Went into Applications and cleared the caches (problem eventually comes back)
- Cleared the caches as well as uninstalled the Gmail updates then reinstalled from Market (problem eventually comes back)
I've searched through the forums and can't find where anyone has written about having this issue or resolving it. Has anyone here run into this and if so, how did you go about resolving it?
Thanks!
I have the same problem. Did you manage to solve this issue?
No "final" solution that fixes it...just have to keep doing the 2 steps I wrote about and the problem goes away for a while.
It happens maybe every 2 weeks and seems to pop up when I haven't gone into Gmail and emptied my trash from within the Gmail site for a while. Also seems to come back if I read through emails too quickly; maybe an issue with reading and then deleting on the phone before the phone can push back to the server that it's been read...just guessing.
Sorry...

Go to manage applications, find GMail then force stop it. clear cache and then clear data. Reopen GMail and set up the label sync etc how you like it and should be good. Hope this works for you, let me know.
Thanks ifly! Haven't tried the force stop part before so I just did it. I'll report back if anything comes back.

No problem at all. Hope it fixes it. I have this happen quite a bit after a nand backup or restore. When I do a nand restore i always wipe data/factory reset, then cache and davlik now and that seems to fix the problem. Not sure what is getting hung up in the data to cause this.
That's what's been bugging me as well...I do all the wipes when I do a nand restore or load a new rom but Gmail always seems to go back to this stranger behavior. I looked all over these forums (and others), hoping someone had at least seen the same thing but to no avail.
UPDATE: Started having the same issue with Gmail. Was honestly hoping the last suggestion would help...guess not.
Any other ideas...anyone?
Login to gmail from a browser.
Click settings and then "Forwarding and POP/IMAP" tab
Check the settings there. I have both pop enabled and IMAP.
What are yours set to?
I've got them both enabled as well.
hmmm not sure what the deal is then...strange.

I'm having similar issues as well. I would get an email notification, open gmail, read it, delete it. Few minutes later, it shows up as an unread email but does not appear in my inbox. If i go to my "all" email box, it's there. I also still see it on my desktop PC. It finally goes away when I delete it from my PC. Another major problem that has not been mentioned here is that I cannot send an email from my EVO using the gmail app. It just keeps sitting there in my outbox. Very frustrating.

Unable to send gmail

Anyone having (or had) an issue sending emails from gmail? Not sure when this started, but at first I could send but not forward or reply, now I can't even send. When I hit the send button it just greys out. i'm on decks ROM, I've cleared app data, reflashed gaps, removed and reinstalled from the market, fixed permissions, etc - nothing has helped. Will likely rebuild from scratch in the next day our two, but figured I would throw the question out there.
I had issues with the Gmail app as well - I could hit the send button but it would sit in my outbox forever and say "sending". I searched around and found a lot of other people with problems. My Gmail app wouldn't sync properly either. I would read an email or mark it as read, then when I synced it would still show unread.
My solution was to ditch the Gmail app and just use the default email app - you can set up your Gmail through that. You can also try a different version of the app, maybe an older one that worked for you.

Thanks for the response, for what its worth, I saw lots of posts with the symptoms you describe, everything on mine sync'd fine between gmail and phone except send. When I hit send the button would just grey out, wouldn't say sending or even move to the outbox, it just did nothing.
I rebuilt from scratch this morning and its working fine now, so who knows, I had tried everything I could think of and nothing else worked.

I did the same thing and my gmail worked perfectly afterwards.
That may have been a step I missed. I dont think I cleared cache when I removed the app, definitely rebooted before installing from the market. Well, thats one more thing to try if it happens again... which it likely wont now that I have a probable fix...

[Q] Gmail can receive emails, but deleting does not delete from Gmail.com

As the title states. The Gmail app on my phone, I can reveive and email but sending an email or deleting an email does not work. I can delete 5 emails on my phone, go the website and all thos emails are still there. And if I need to send an email forget it, I can go under my "sent' folder whether on the phone or the site and it just says "sending" but it never gets sent....... I have tried deleteing cache, uninstalling and reinstalling and still the same.........If anyone has any ideas I would really appreciate it.

Uninstall the updates.
Have you looked in accounts & sync uncheck sync gmail. Check it to auto sync gmail. Just a thought. Do you have a backup of an older version try to install that one & see if issue is present in that app. Could just be a bad update.

This happens to me every now and again. I remove the google account and re-add it. Also, sometimes just rebooting fixes the problem.

[Q] Can't send email

I'm rooted with Bonestock Rom. I noticed that I can receive email (Google account) but I cannot send.The email just stays in outbox. I tried turning mobile data off and on even my WiFi.But no go. I have my company email setup with the phone and that works fine.Is anyone else experiencing the same issue?
I haven't run into this with the One, but with my GNEX when I was a flash o holic it happened quite often. I would wipe data, cache, and delvik cache as well then refresh the rom. Also sometimes it helped to download the Gmail app from the market rather than restore a back up of it.

I personally prefer using live mail, but clearing cache sounds like it will probably help, also just simply restarting your phone can help with a lot of stuff. My text messages were taking 15 minutes to send and receive, simple restart fixed that.

Messenger showing numbers and not names

Maybe someone can answer 2 questions for me.
First-- I used the data cable to download all the information from my previous phones. All of my contacts are there but for some reason in Messenger it will just show the persons number instead of contact name. No idea why. I am going into each contact and saving their contact again to see if it will take, sometimes it does, some times it doesnt.
Second-- In messenger.....someone please tell me I can remove these stupid large colored letter next to each message? I have been through setting and advanced and do not see an option.
My phone is having the same issue of not connecting my contacts to the messager app. I also used the cable to transfer.
The other issue, I always give pictures to the people in my contacts so it shows pictures instead of letters however the first issue is messing that up lol
So I went to Settings>storage>cache data>clear cache data and then I went to apps>messager>storage>clear data and it fixed both these problems for me. Hope that helps.
If you clear data on messenger doesn't that erase all messages?

It didn't erase mine. Maybe backup with a app first before if you want to make sure.
Update. I cleared both, which fixed it but it does erase. Google auto backup ftw
Mine did that the first time I went into Messenger but I exited and went back in and it started updating the threads with names and pictures.
Thanks that's worked for me!
Clearing the messenger data work for me. Thanks!!
