My GMail accounts aren't syncing.
I have tried clearing the cache, removing the accounts then readding them; and playing around with the options in Settings->Accounts & Sync.
Note that: not only does auto-sync not work, but in the GMail app going Menu->Refresh also doesn't work.
How do I get this to work?
Thanks for all suggestions,
Alec Taylor
PS: I was unable to root the phone, so am on Stock 2.3.3 with HTC Sense 2.1. GMail hasn't worked since I upgraded from Stock 2.2.1 to Stock 2.3.3.
Try clearing data for gmail and Google services framework, that always worked for me

As mentioned in my post, I have already tried this.
I would suggest you try and install either an older or a more recent version of gmail, or try uninstalling (back up the apk first) and reinstalling it completely. I hope that none of this requires root.
It could also be other programs conflicting with gmail so pulling some logs might provide some insight (as explained here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2185929).
If none of this works I would suggest looking further into your problem with rooting your phone since there are very comprehensive guides out there (like http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/index.php?title=HTC_Vision#Rooting_the_G2). Just yesterday I reset my Desire Z to stock and rerooted it.
It's hard to give further advice without additional information. Does your problem persist no matter whether you use WiFi or mobile network?

Go into the Accounts & Sync menu under settings. do another "Add Account", there you should see a second Facebook account icon, click there and login to your facebook account.
If you've already done this, go back to the Account & Sync menu, and click the Facebook for HTC Sense and remove account, re-add it and reboot.
I always have that same issue when setting up a new ROM, and you just have ot play with the settings under Facebook for HTC Sense and sometimes even removing and re-adding helps.

Under the People app, click menu and view. make sure you have your Facebook checked.
You may want to avoid creating MULTIPLE threads for the same issue.
Check your other thread in the general section for an answer.
Sorry bout the other thread thing i want this issue resolved and i did check and facebook is checked
Stock Rom? Ask the Facebook App developer. Uninstall and reinstall. Wipe the phone and reinstall. I am using Stock Rom non-rooted and having no issue. Are you sure you have the correct username and password?
If you're still not having any luck, I'd have to agree with tgruendler, try a wipe and start over. As far as the Stock ROM, did you download and install it after rooting.
If that's the case, try one of the custom ROMS
Can u give me links and tell me how to do this??
I have the same problem as you.
I went back to rooted stock and i can't get it to find my friends. everythign else, including the friend stream syncs up fine.
I have wiped and reinstalled...same problem.
I'm having the same issue. I installed Fresh 1.0.1, and I wasn't able to re-sync, but when I reflashed my backup (which was working before), it still wouldn't connect.
Maybe Facebook is having issues today?
Hello,
Just wondering if anyone else has had same problem i'm having right now. When opening Mail(not gmail) i get the following message:
the application Mail(proces com.htc.android.mail) has suddenly stopped. Please try again.
I keep on trying but get same message every time. Restarting phone does not help. Don't want to do a hard reset because then i will lose data/apps...... Anyone know a sollution? I've deinstalled any apps that i installed between when Mail was and was'nt working. I have a stock DHD(dutch). Not rooted yet
My native language is dutch so the "error" message might be different on WWE phones. Sorry for any mistakes in the message.
Happy new year

I dont have a different radio installed, everything is Stock from HTC. Tryed to set up account again (and deleting old stuff) but get different error. Getting frustrated. Thinking of doing a hard reset. Any backup programs i should install before reset?
Just a thought, have you tried settings, applications, manage applications, mail, clear data and clear cache? I had a similar problem with gmail app and that cured it.

Preacher65, thanks for the tip. But that did not solve the problem. When i add an exchange account(because with previous procedure the account has been deleted) i can complete every step except the last one. Then i get a error saying something like setup was not succesfull, try again later.
I can see the sync item appearing in the taskbar though? I'm out of ideas?
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App
Sorry it didn't work. I don't use Exchange on this phone so out of ideas, really.
To answer your earlier question, though, you can use apps like Titanium Backup or MyBackup Pro to backup any non-stock apps and data to your SD card, then if you wipe you can restore them quite easily and quickly.
Or if you have Auto-sync on, and "Backup my settings" and "Automatically Restore" ticked in the Settings/Privacy option, Android will re-download all your Market apps automatically. It saves your settings to your Google account and uses that data to restore your apps after a wipe. I think it restores app data too, not sure though as I only used it once - I use Titanium now as it's much quicker.
Hope that helps.

Hi guys,
I'm sure there is a simple fix for this, but I've been searching all over the internet(s) and can't seem to fix the problem. I flashed Liquid JB a few days ago, and other than this sync issue, everything has been going well. From what I've gathered, this is an issue linked to restoring Google information through Titanium, instead of letting the phone sync on its own.
If this is simply "factory reset and begin anew," or flash a different ROM, that's okay with me; however, I'm just curious as to why I can't enable auto-sync on either my Google account or my FB account.
Am I on the right track? Any one have information on what's going on?
I think it's more likely a ROM issue. I've tried some ROMs where it works and some where it hasn't

Make sure you flashed the gaaps package. I've never used liquid but there have been a few times where I've been wtf I have no contact info and I had forgot to flash the gaaps. You can just flash them at your current state right now it won't harm anything.
As far as fb goes I use haxsync to link fb to my contacts so I'm not sure on that one.

Before doing a factory reset I would try wiping days from Google Services Framework and from the Play Store. Reboot, then sign back in to the Play Store...

have you tried just reflashing the rom? Some apps wont work correctly if you dont flash it correctly.
Make sure you flash the gapps correctly as well. Try reflashing it and let me know how it goes.
Check to make sure you're not signed in on your computer or another device. If that doesn't help, uninstall updates for each, clear data and reboot.
Open the store and 're enter your information, then after it loads, back out of it and wait several minutes. It should reupdate, and you can try again.

I've had this problem, which has even followed me from my SGH-T999 to a SGH-T999L (stock, neither rooted) when I had to change phones. Specifically Google Now and Google Voice wouldn't sync when on wifi, and this was true not only at home (ie not router-related). All other internet services, including Gmail and Play would work on wifi, and both worked fine on cellular.
Even before I switched phones I did a factory reset and it worked for a little while and then came back. And same after I switched phones. My hunch is that there was some corrupted setting that kept getting restored from backup. Recently I tried clearing data for Google Services Framework and a few other google apps, and again that worked for a day or two, then reverted.
So tonight, based in part on DocHoliday77s advice, I tried the following steps (after Helium backup, to be on the safe side):
1. Logged out of Chrome on my desktop
2. Removed the google account from the phone (settings->accounts->google->sync)
3. Killed all apps running (Advanced Task Killer), for what it's worth
4. Cleared data from every google app (or at least all the ones that looked like google services) one by one in the application manager (all apps)
5. Rebooted phone
So far so good--everything restored easily (much easier than a factory reset), and as with prior resets it's working fine on wifi. But I've been burned before so my enthusiasm is tempered...
Update 5/22/2014:
It's been working continuously since then. There were a few apps which lost their bearings--must have been linked to Google Services, but resetting was minor. Google Voice will still occasionally lose the ability to connect on wifi, but now a simple reboot fixes the problem.
I hope this helps someone in the same situation!
