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.
Here's my setup.

Help with MIUI and email notifications.

Hopefully there is someone familiar with this ROM that can help me with this problem I am having. My Gmail account seems fine but with my MSN/HOTMAIL account I am having a bit of an issue. For some reason my phone keeps downloading old emails and sending me notifications. I have never had this happen before with any other ROM or any stock version of Android. I delete the notifications/emails on the phone but not on the server like I always do but the phone randomly downloads the same emails that are up to 2-3 weeks old.
Anyone have this same issue or know of a way I might be able to fix it? I was going to ask in the MIUI ROM thread but I am a new user and am not allowed to post in that section yet. Plus I am not certain it is an issue with the ROM.
Oh, I have a pretty up to date version of the rom as of about 3 weeks ago.
Thanks

Hm, have you tried deleting then re-adding the accounts you're having problems with?

Good idea. I will try that and see what happens over the next day or so. Thanks

No problem, hopefully that will work and if not, feel free to post again and we'll try to get it sorted out. I've never had that issue but maybe someone else has?

Okay, as if I didn't feel dumb before. I looked and looked and I can't figure out how to delete my MSN/Hotmail account. The only account that shows up in the accounts/sync settings is my gmail account. Any ideas?
Thanks

Sounds like it isnt deleting from server. Delete it from the website and Im sure you wont run into the issue

I don't want them to be deleted from the server and have never had this issue until using MIUI.

Go in to the email app. I have more than one account, so by default it will show my "combined inbox". You can also go to menu>accounts to show your accounts. Long press the account and select "remove account".

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 this helps
When I had the same issue when I flashed to r3charge - Final rom i just deleted the gmail app, wiped cache and davik then did a fresh reinstall using the market.
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 Notifications not updating...

I was wondering if anyone else at XDA is having this issue:
I am running 4.0.4 on an unlocked GNex on AT&T. Gmail is notifying me of new messages. However, if I mark them read or delete them on gmail.com, the notification does not disappear from my GNex. I have to manually click on the notification and then it disappears. None of previous android phones have done this. They always remove the notification when I mark it as read somewhere else. I have tried to re-sync gmail and I also cleared data for the gmail app. Seems to be a bug with 4.0.4. Anyone else experiencing this?
Only found this while researching this issue:

I would start by deleting data from the Gmail app...

Tried that. Had to re-sync everything. Still not working. GNex still has notification of a new message that I deleted from gmail.com over an hour ago....

Anyone else have any ideas? Thanks

Check with your email provider to see if anything has changed. This happened to me not long ago and they had updated their security and I had to adjust a single setting to make it work again.
Alternatively, backup your email if needed. (Id use Titanium to backup the app and data) then in Application Manager, clear data on the email app. Reboot the phone and re-setup your email and see if it works again.
It does sound to me like it may be a problem on the provider side though.
