Anyone noticing that when you delete an email on your computer you get a new gmail notification on your phone? Seems like it happens every time I delete an email on my computer. Just wondering if this is happening to anyone else.
Not that it means much, but I've never had that happen on any of my 4 android phones.
Me neither. Sounds like you may have to delete and re-add account.

I might be the only one having this issue, but the default email app for Exchange doesn't keep the words together when it goes to the next line.
Here is an excerpt from an email:
"In todays fast paced business environm
ent, we all have to wear multiple hats to
remain competitive in this challenging ec
onomy."
See how the words just continue on the next line?
I can't find a setting to fix this.
And if I can't get this fixed, is there any other *good* apps other than touchdown to connect through activesync?
Mine doesnt seem to have this problem. I not sure what would be causing it for you.

Maybe try resetting your email accounts on the phone?

I have the same issue with default Email app. I also see the full headers which make reading email really difficult. The actual email text is hard find with all the header and other text.
I use Exchange Active Sync adapter to connect to Lotus Notes email. Never had problems with other Android stock emaill apps.
I tried other Exchange email apps and have settled down with Moxier Mail.
Edit: I tried resetting the account on stock email app but it didn't help.
Hope this helps.

Resetting the accounts didn't help mine either. I can't wait until this thing is rooted...
Found the *kinda* fix. If you set the phone to download the entire message instead of just 2k or 100k or whatever, then it fixes the behavior. It's only when you download a partial message that words are broken onto the next line.
Morning!
I have searched but nothing useful was found.
Quite frequently I have my gmail inbox say I have 1 new email but nothing new is displayed. I can log into the web and see the fresh email though. At that point I can manually refresh my inbox and it will pop up.
Wtf.

Odd indeed. Does it continue to do so if you remove your account from "Accounts & Sync" then re-add it or if you clear data/cache for Gmail?

Yes sir. I've noticed it on the GPA build and stock. Happens enough that now I'm looking in my gmail inbox instead of trusting notifications. I've seen a few hits about it on Google but most were quite old.
Agreed. Odd odd odd.

I use to have the same issue and couldnt figgure it out for the life of me, so i just setup my g mail account to be checked by the stock mail app, and just removed the gmail app all together. Now i get my gmails just fine. You could also use a 3rd party mail app from the market such as K-9 mail.
I can't help but wanted to say that I often have the same problem.
I guess what befuddles me is that the Gmail app on a Google phone can't work reliably. Odd indeed.
Do you think it has anything to do with the amount of memory dedicated for apps on the Inc?
Not sure, if you watch it when its syncing the new email will show for a sec in the gmail app, and then dissapear but still give a notification of the new email.
Just did it again.

I've found that generally this happens when you receive a new message on a different gmail account but the message you receive is for a thread that you've already deleted.
Ex. I receive a newsletter from some company on gmail account #1. I delete this message. I receive the same newsletter on gmail account #2 (both linked to the same inbox). Since the thread is already in the trash it does not get moved to the inbox and no new message is displayed. However, since its a new message it shows "Inbox(1)" when viewing my mail.
That's my own personal experience. Since I've only noticed it when receiving mail with 2 different account I have no clue if the same problem applies with only 1 account
I've had the problem too. I cleared cache, uninstalled, rebooted and then reinstalled gmail, rebooted again and I haven't noticed it since. Not sure if that really worked or it just fixed itself but doesn't hurt to try.

Just clearing the cache always resolved the problem for me. No need to reinstall
Anyone else having an issue where read messages don't stay marked as read? I've been having to re mark emails as read daily.

Yes. Even my note 1 was terrible with this. I'd delete messages even and they pop back up multiple times randomly. It's been pretty agitating, and I've gotten to the point where I just stopped the notifications.

Did you try using a 3rd party email app to see if it made a difference?
Sent from my Samsung Galaxy Note II (SGH-I317) on the infamous AT&T Network.
Yes, no change. This is yahoo, road runner, gmail, and the att.net via yahoo that all do it repeatedly on any device except via web browser. Tried an ipad, iphone, note 10.1, the first note phone, and both of the note 2's I have had. The apple devices don't copy the alerts for only the roadrunner account, otherwise all 4 accounts repeated the same problem.
Have you found any solution? I am not sure why all those different gmail and yahoo accounts would act so strangely but it is typical for me. Haha

Nope, unfortunately no solution as of yet but it's annoying as he'll, and I know that much!

This probably won't help, but I'll put it out there anyway. I've noticed that when I go into any web based email client (Comcast, for instance) the mail on my phone from that account...refreshes, is the best way I can put it. Mail I've already deleted from my phone pops up again as new and I have to go through and delete it again. That has happened on pretty much every phone I've used. Never really looked into it too deeply, but it is annoying.

Definitely true! I never had an issue with any devices for years now until my note 1 hit ICS official. I am not sure how it coincides but that is the only thing I know of that changed. Strange stuff. I have the same trouble, especially clear from device to device.
I may just try a 3rd party app to see if that helps. Maybe K9 Mail or similar. Will report back.

Just a few thoughts of what I've seen in the past. You may already know all this but FWIW, whatever.
1. pop3 email accounts are crap. Usually when you delete, it still stays on the server until you delete in webmail or something with true access to email.
2. Setting up email accounts with imap will delete off the server. It's not perfect like Exchange but better than pop.
3. I've often used the settings in gmail to push or pull email from my other none gmail accounts. For example my home internet company will only send usage alerts to the email account they provide. They also don't allow access to see the email unless you are on their network (at home) or go to their site and check their webmail app. So I use gmail pull tool to automatically check for new emails every so often (Gmail decides the frequency) and pull the new mail into my gmail account, then they show up on my phone. One time I accidently created a loop of three email addresses, one pushing and one pulling email so 1 email continually delivered over and over until I realized what I had done. "Broadcast storm anyone??" You may want to check how many devices are getting access to that email address, it could be something like #4.
4. I've seen a problem where my home desktop PC has Outlook installed. When outlook is open I think it would receive the email before my phone and save it to the PST, so my phone would never see it. Except there was a setting in outlook to "Leave emails on the server for X amount of time. Which was great because then my phone would see them even though outlook pulled them into the PST file. However I also noticed when I deleted the email from my phone it would reappear and I think it was because I had outlook leave it on the server. If my PC was shut off I had no problems. Another way I could clear it was to go to a webmail site and login to my email and delete them off the server. Then they would still be in my PST from the first time they arrived and I could also delete them off my phone only this time they would not reappear because I had gone into the server and deleted them. I bet this is as clear as mud right. Meh
One of these above may be a factor.
I am using apex launcher and the symptoms have minimized or fixed.... but this is an android issue... android doesn't do push like the iPhone...
on the iPhone...you delete an email and a couple of secs later.. it is gone from the web... and vice versa...
on android you have to wait till it syncs... it doesn't do push...
these are the things that make me want to go back to iPhone... i wish we could install iOS on this big phone!

Yahoo mail app does push for certain, and so does hotmail, even to the native email app. I just cant seem to get the yahoo mail app to zoom ever, and it makes reading messages impossible. I get the same repeated emails in ios also, so it isn't free of similar issues for me at least.

Try pushing aosp email & exchange APK to your phone and see if that fixes it by replacing the stock apps

Ever since flashing the ROM on 12/12 I have not had my contacts sync. I'm getting the "sync is currently experiencing problems" notice. I've tried numerous fixes after Googling the message, nothing works. Has anybody else had this issue and successfully fixed it?
Not here, everything synced. AOKP, Dec 4
I have the same issue with the Google sync. I don't have a fix for you, unfortunately.
Although the sync page for all my gmails constantly says its not working right now, my emails seem to be working just fine. And I have 4 gmails, besides one Hotmail and one yahoo email account. But, if someone does know what's up, it would be nice to know why it is stuck with red spiral and not green.

I have the problem with the Galaxy S3. It's running stock OS. No third party contacts apps. It used to work. And then it stopped. Now any change I make on the phone does not get synced to the cloud. Very very frustrating. See http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=42641 If enough people star it, Google will look into it.
I'm all confused. Past couple weeks, my Google contacts that I have saved for months keeps dissappearing. I don't know what is causing this. I just lost 5 contact info. Text came in only with phone number showing from people I have saved in my Google account for a long time? Never seen this happen before. And keeps happening randomly. I have to reenter all these people to the contacts again. Please help. I'm not rooted. Nothing crazy. Just using the phone with TouchWiz no skin no odd apps installed. Only using SwiftKey keyboard. That's it. Anyone has any ideas please.?
It has been happening to me as well.
I don't know what's causing the problem, but I do know you can restore your contacts as far back as 30 days ago. Go to Google Contacts in a browser, click More/restore contacts. Choose a time to go back to, then click restore.

I have done that. But it's very annoying. Keeps happening. I never had this issue with my note 4 for two years. It started with Note 7. So, I thought to myself which apps I have started using that I never did with my note 4 that the app uses access to my contacts. Than, I had tweeter, what's app, Instagram as new apps that I never used before. I hope this helps. That's the only logical explanation I can come up with. Has to be an app that uses contacts access and somehow does not work with Google sync.
Are they just disappearing on phone, or entirely in Google? Check online on PC to see your contacts.
Sent from my SM-N930F using Tapatalk
they are gone from everywhere when they are gone! google, mail contacts, other devices. I think some other app sharing and accessing the contacts like tweeter, whats app etc. causing this.
