Gmail Problem - G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Gmail wont let me send any emails whatsoever they just sit in my outbox. I thought it was a problem with the miui rom but I guess its not since I flashed back to cm 6.1.1 and still can't send anything ,
Any clue on why I can't send anything? I can still receive email just can't send anything.

I have the same problem....
it stopped syncing my outbox yesterday..
I'm on dhd port baadnwz 1.7c
when I was on stock froyo, this problem would sometimes appear, then I would rebbot my phone and it would sync...
now, I tried restoring to an earlier state(same rom), tried wiping dalvik, nothing...
it just won't send any emails...when I send them from my computer, it works, it doesn't only on my phone
very annoying stuff, driving me crazy, anyone have an idea what is going on??
tnx

well, I think I solved it
I uninstalled and again installed the gmail app from the market and it seems that it is working...
I'm not 100% satisfied because it is not a permanent solution, probably it will get stuck again..
but then again, it is working again
cheers

I think that what generally works in this case is going into Settings -> Applications -> Manage Applications -> All
Choose Gmail, and then clear the cache. It will then re-sync gmail, and it should work.
You could also clear the data --- if clearing the cache doesn't work, but you would have to redo your gmail settings (e.g. Vibrate, ringtone, signature). Uninstall and install does this as well.

so I tried it, erased whole bunch of it and it's ok now...

[Q] Gmail native app not pushing emails

Hey Guys,
Been experiencing gmail issue for the last couple of weeks.
Desire Z, now with the OTA update - used to have root, task managers, but did factory data reset which should remove those two, correct?
Upon boot, gmail functions well, and pushes my mail thru well, then after a while, i'd go into the gmail app and refresh, and a flurry of emails would come thru, some hours old.
I've done several factory resets, at the moment have weather sync every 3 hours, gmail, exchange (push), facebook for sense every 12 hours, and whatsapp.
Not sure how the native gmail app works, is it exchange? proprietary sync? imap idle? or thru the google cloud service?
been reading and people have cleared the gmail cache as a temp workaround, but I find this annoying, and its results are hit and miss.
I have tried on gmail app version 2.3 and 2.3.2 (latest)
any ideas?
PS - background data on, sync on, all on!
Native gmail app is pushhhhhh. It should be pushing down....
I have had troubles with syncing but I flash so muchstuff I'm never in the same place at the same time. So a wipe is always the fix everytime.
If I were you id quit on the weather (look up at the sky) and facebook. Eliminate the junk if you are trying to fix something substantially important. See what happens. Try a wipe they feel good actually.

Thanks for the suggestion,
over the weekend (Xmas weekend) i wiped twice, both times i didnt install anything else, both times after a period of time, it would stop pushing.
I have no idea now hahaha
Ok, so i just did it again, factory reset, formatted SD card, completely clean phone.
installed only my gmail account and my work exchange account. nothing else.
my push gmail worked for about 1/2 hour, and stopped again.
The problem is with Gmail. They just updated the.app. go to the Market and download the new app before you.delete your whole phone or something.

Gmail app won't send email even after clearing data

I was having some problems with androids built in a2sd feature. Formatting and running a disk check seems to have fixed it.
This morning, I noticed my emails weren't getting marked read and emails weren't going out. I cleared data and cache in the gmail app. It marks emails as read but still won't send. I did a nandroid backup, still same problem. I installed fresh still had the problem...data wiped the app but no luck. Anything else I can try? I'm on myns warm two point two.

Had this issue a week ago; It was due to Gmail.apk residing in both /system/app and on my EXT3 partition (both were different versions)
i had this problem. i fan a fix permissions through rom manager. that didn't fix it (although it's a good idea to do it once in awhile) I went to settings > applications > manage applications > Gmail and I clicked Clear Data. started gmail back up, it had to re-log into gmail which only took a couple seconds. the email I was trying to send was no longer trying to send. I re-typed it, hit send and voila! it sent.
hope this helps.
I think it did have to do with 2 versions of gmail installing on the phone. That or there's something in my titanium backup that a2sd doesn't like. I just restored a few apps, no data, and that seems to have fixed it.

Had the same problem, clearing the data and re-signing in helped for me, too.

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.

See if that helps.

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...

GMail Sending Issues?

Has anyone been having issues with their Gmail not sending emails?
I have tried to send emails but I keep getting the "sending..." notification in the email header.
The syncing icon in the taskbar just keeps spinning.
Ive tried to reboot the phone, etc.
Nothing.
I"m on Caulkin's ROM.
This is really frustrating as I use my phone for work as well and it delays my response times to important Clients.
Thanks!
Yeah experimented that a couple of weeks a go and dont know what of the 3 things I did was the one that worked:
1)Go to settings/Applications/Manage Applications in there go where the gmail app is (Downloaded or All) and clear the app data
2)If it have been updated in the market search for it in your apps in the market app ...uninstall it and reinstall
3)The last option is to use Root Explorer to go to system/apps delete the gmail app there and from other source paste another copy of the gmail app
Hope it works

I had the same issue on a stock rom (rooted). Turned out it was an app called Seal that was the culprit.
I learned that whenever I restore a backup, I have the clear data in Gmail or I get the same issue.
Not sure if it's the same cause for yours but clear data and send a test email. Pm me after, I'm interested to see if this works

Yup.
That's exactly what did it for me.
I went from UnNamed over to Caulkins last week and did a Titianium restore of my app+data.
Cleared the data in Applications>Gmail. That did the trick.

Contacts keep diappearing CM9

Hi all.
Has anyone had a problem with disappearing contacts? There are times when after a call i get 0 contacts in my list. Google private contacts, and work contacts from exchange start syncing and in a minute (or five) I can see all of them again?
I get that like once per 2-days.
update
Anyone?
My contacts come from 3 sources:
-gmail sync ~600 contacts
-exchange 2010 sp1 ~200 biz contacts
-friendcaster ~100 contacts
maybe that is the problem?
Contacts keep disappearing.
Just had another one.
Got logcat this time.
It happen wit me too....I flashed again n bravo all is good

Did you flash only or was it rather wipe all data plus flash?

Flashed again cm9 alpha7
Today I:
wiped app cache
wiped dalvik cache
flashed again
booted
made link2sd work
Now waiting for contacts to crash ... so far no sign of disaster
Sometimes what happens is.
I open the phone app and voila xD no contacts to be seen. NO FREAKING CONTACTS and then I have to restart the device to see them again..
But sometimes when I open the phone app, they aren't there, but they come after like 30-40 sec.
This is really troubling me because at times, it's very urgent to call someone, and it behaves like that.
If you find any cure, temme!
Thanks

You sure they'r not there. It takes some time to sync contacts from google account. At my 3G connection it takes about 2 mins to sync 600-700 of them.
If you don't see them try restarting your internet connection (disable, activate) and observe number of contacts in upper right corner of contacts app.
What I did was force close the app contact and then clear dat.. then sync back the contact(mine manually from hotmail exchange) and it works

If it's gon' take two minutes for my mobile to just show the contacts, then what's the point in even using it? -.-

just out of curiosity, did you do anything to get link2sd to work? I tried using it on my install of CM9, and it periodically ate my 2nd partition. My SD card wouldn't even mount anymore.
Ext3

I made EXT3 partition through PC slot for sd cards, and it works since then. Just like that.
Contacts lost after flashing again

Disaster came again. Flashing made no difference.
If there's someone who could analize logcat ... be my guest
Cheers
I think, the data2sd conflicts with the contacts. (just a thought) ..... anyways, you find a cure, you pm me.
