[SOLVED] Gmail sync and send Issues

Has anyone else had sync issues with just gmail? Facebook, contacts, etc all work fine but email will not sync. I can read new emails and archive, delete, and mark emails as read/unread. But after awhile my unread count goes to 65 (what gmail actually has) when the number should be 10. And I can't send emails.
I tried the fix in post two, but that causes launcher pro to continually force close. I also searched and found a post with 8 or 10 steps. I followed that and it worked for a little bit, but was immediately back to normal. So it might not of even worked.
Both issues are really annoying and if someone could help I would be very appreciative!

Bump.
Anyone? No? So I'm alone here
Did you go into your: settings, accounts and sync, and make sure that background data and auto sync are checked? or the google apps is syncing as well? I had this problem on my Q9c and I had to go back and resync...
Thanks for the reply. The fix seems to be to go into Manage Applications and clear cache for gmail.
hmmm interesting. So, im guessing your up and running again?

Help: VZW Galaxy Nexus Contacts and Gmail "Sync is currently experiencing problems"

Help: VZW Galaxy Nexus Contacts and Gmail "Sync is currently experiencing problems"
My new nexus will not sync contacts or gmail. I get the error "Sync is currently experiencing problems. It will be back shortly." I have tried clearing the cache on both apps and restarting the phone, but the error reoccurs. It has synced some contacts (58 of 141). But the error remains, and the rest of the contacts do not appear, even after choosing to display "all contacts".
Can anyone help?

I'm seeing the same thing, though it's only affecting my synched bookmarks. If you go into settings > Accounts & Sync, it'll have an exclamation by the problem child/children. Uncheck whatevers not working and your contacts should finish in theory. I was able to get all my contacts.
Last time I restarted after a cache wipe, contacts gave the error, but gmail synced for a long time before giving the error. This time, contacts again errored right away, but gmail is still syncing. I'm hoping it will finish this time, and then I'll work on getting the contacts to sync.
I've checked the syncing on my other android devices and there are no problems there, so I don't think it's a problem with the servers.
I actually had the same problem when I wiped my touchpad last night. unchecked and rechecked and it started working again.
Well I hope it's temporary, but I'd really like to get it fixed. Does anyone know how long it usually takes to sync gmail? It's been going for over 30 minutes now.
Bump for a fast board, I still need help with this. I just formatted the cache in recovery and the problem came back immediately.
Edit: I deleted my google account and readded it and it seems to be working, sorry for the bump. I hope this helps someone else.
Unfortunately mine is still broken and I've tried everything. Adding it back in doesn't help. I'm using "[email protected] and my email will not synch even though others do. I have other gmail accounts that are synching just fine. What's up Google??? Man this is frustrating; the email account I actually need most is not working.
I just got my wife a Nexus, and I have been getting the sync error, along with a pop-up saying "unfortunately contacts have stopped working". Gmail is working fine, it's just contacts. This started happening after unlocking, rooting, and installing Codename ROM. I'm running Codename on my Nexus without problems. I unrooted, and relocked hers, and it seemed to be fine. Went back to unlocked, rooted, and Codename, and the problem came back. I'm going to try the previous versions of Codename, and Nova Launcher to see if it makes a difference, but if anyone has any more info about this, I'd like to hear about it.
Thanks

Sync is Currently Experiencing Problems

I was wondering if someone could help me out.
Today when I went to settings, accounts and sync I get the below message.
Sync is experiencing problems. It will be back shortly.
It has been like this all day and I have tried unchecking and rechecking autosync. I have also press the button that says sync all. Still getting the same message.
Any idea what may be happening or what I can do? Thanks.

yes it is. I think I got it figured out. Under manage accounts the message was popping up for Twitter, but none of my other accounts. When I click on twitter, Sync Twitter was working perfectly, it was Sync Contacts (twitter contacts) that wasn't. I unchecked sync contacts and no more error.
I didn't really want my Twitter contacts to show up under my phone contacts anyway.
thanks.

CyanogenMod 10.2, no Gmail notifications, every sync checkbox checked

Hello,
I updated my Sprint Galaxy S III (SPH-L710) to CyanogenMod 10.2 yesterday.
I flashed the latest gapps, and I updated my gmail apps to the latest one on the play store (4.7.1).
However, when I receive emails I don't get any notifications. However I still receive emails, and if I press refresh, then I got notifications.
I read lots of posts about it, but most of them told to check synchronization. Which I did.....everywhere.
I went to Account -> Google and checked GMail.
I went to Data Usage -> Menu and checked Auto-sync data
I went to GMail apps -> Settings and checked Sync GMail
I went to GMail apps -> ... @gmail.com settings and checked label notifications and set ringtones
I checked that gmail was not checked in Privacy Guard, and that the app was allowed to push notifications.
I tried to revert to gmail apps 4.5, clear data, remove google accounts and add it again, reboot the phone, re-update the gmail apps.
I tried from WiFi and 4G.
Nothing worked.
I don't feel like it's a sync issue, as I well received email (even if it's not instant).
I did a fresh install of CM 10.2 (stable), wiped cache and everything (I had stock ROM before).
I also think I do not receive facebook notifications.
Does these applications need to run in the background to get notifications ? Because when I come back to desktop after checking mails for example and goes to Manage Apps -> Running, GMail is not in there.
Thank you.
Edit: Could it be an issue with GCM ?
Edit: At some points I received notification (30min after I sent the test email).
A question is, how does gmail app works ? Is it synchronizing and emitting notification if new messages, or the other way around, if receiving new messages, emit a notification and synchronize ?
To test GCM, I downloaded Push Notification Test, and I can trigger the notification (step 3), but the system never receive it.
However I'm not sure why. Is there a way to restart gcm ? (I already tried to reboot, but it doesn't change anything.
I tested to disable profiles, just in case one of the profile overrides notifications. No luck.
It seems I sometimes receive notifications but sometimes after a long time after I receive the email.
Did anyone already got this kind of issue ?

Your not alone. The one thing i loved about the GMAIL app was the instant email notifications.
Now it takes hours (if it all) to notify me of an email since the update of 4.7.1.
Really would like a fix too (using a Galaxy Note 3)
EDIT: Seems to be working for me now. I updated all google apps on the phone, and in chrome i was logged in under another email, and relogged into mine. Then i tested it and appears to be working for now.
Hope this helps

In the changelog of 4.7.1 they said they fixed the sync, but I'm not sure it's completely fixed.
All my apps are up-to-date on my phone, and I don't have chrome. I'm never logged on my gmail with my browser and I don't have other gmail address.
That's annoying.
But I think I don't receive FB notifications either. I think it's more an issue in the CM. Do you use Cyanogen too ?

The problem is happening to me again. Its only since the update a few days ago which is really annoying. I am using stock so shouldn't be your mod. I had no sync problems before the update, but now the inbuilt email app beats the gmail app every time, to the point the gmail app doesnt even send notifications anymore.
Im at a loss as to what to do

As for me, I'm not sure this is the app, because as I said I also don't receive FB notifications.
And I also tried with gmail 4.5 and it didn't work either. After I revert to 4.5, I sent myself a test email, and I got the notification immediately, but after that, I sent other email, and this time I got no notifications anymore.

Not receiving push notifications from select apps

Hey everyone,
So this just started, I'm not receiving push notifications from some apps (yahoo, snapchat, gmail). This happens on wifi or cell data. I've done some reading, and haven't seen anything that helped, I tried switching APN settings (according to another thread), I've uninstalled the apps and logged out of out of everything. Can't seem to find the problem and I'm in a panic because my yahoo account is my business and I'm missing a lot of emails if I don't check it every few minutes. Any help will be great!
