Last few days (must be since the last update was rolled out on Nov 15) my gmail app doesn't sync back to gmail.com. I get updates from gmail.com (new emails, etc.) but nothing I do on my phone gets sent back to gmail.com. I also can't send any email from my gmail app either; they sit in the Outbox forever.
One of the improvements in the app is "Improved sync and outbox behavior"
Anyone else having this issue?
had this twice after restoring the app with titan i think. after deleting the gmail data it worked again.

You rock! That totally fixed it. I went into the Settings | Apps | Gmail and hit clear data. Gmail started loading up all the messages again and now sycning works properly.

My Phone is Galaxy S4:
On mobile network only my Gmail app was not syncing automatically, gmaps was slow, youtube was not working or really slow and Calendar wasn't syncing either.
After looking on the internet I was not able to find the solution. I have tried everything that was simple like clear cache, reboot, sync OFF/ON ...
Solution:
I tried the APN reset solution: Setting/more network/mobile network/Access point name/ reset to default. I did it and also I have found that google services had the check mark ON for restrict background data. Setting/data usage/google services
I have never touched this option before so I don't know why it was checked. After these two steps my phone works perfectly now.
I hope this could help someone..
Thank you

I'm having issues with Google Voice syncing the conversations done on the website onto my phone.
Here's an image of the texts I sent on the GV website a few minutes ago: http://i.imgur.com/X3fp2.jpg
Here's the same conversation when I open up the GV app on my phone: http://i.imgur.com/Go3dK.jpg
I've attempted to refresh the Google Voice app several times and it just does not sync and show my texts. I also did a full refresh of everything in Accounts and Settings and nothing. Background data is enabled. I am running a stock Galaxy Nexus with 4.04 and the newest Google Voice version.
Anyone have any ideas? Anyone else have this issue?
Thanks
Mine syncs just fine. Even clears notifications on the phone when I view on the web.
Did you go into Google Voice > Settings > Sync and notifications and make sure the app's background data and everything is set up?
Could always try signing out of GV app (which wipes its data) and signing back in to "sync it up".

Yup, that's all setup. It's weird because it syncs the messages I receive, but not the ones I sent myself. I'm going to uninstall/reinstall the app.
Edit: That seems to have done it. Cool.

I'm having the exact same issue. Unfortunately uninstalling/reinstalling didn't work for me. Any other ideas I can try?
Running CM9 and Franco kernel (tried many different nightlies) but my gmail won't sync automatically. It was working and then stopped. I have freshly installed CM9 and installed an older version of Franco kernel but still won't work. Is there anyone else experiencing this?

did you restore from TiBu?
yes but for the email I only restored the app and not the data
go into your accounts and sync and make sure the account is setup correctly to sync gmail.

That will work for messages waiting there but when I send myself a new message afterwards, again it won't show up.
(Just tried it again and same thing)
have you tried removing the account and readding it?
also, when it stopped working? did you flash the updated CM overtop of what you were already running?
I tried updating over and then a clean install. I'm going to do a clean install and not use Titanium at all this time. I though it might be a kernel or cm9 issue.
Having the same problem with my sprint gnex. Flip data off and then back on and it will sync right away. Have you ever noticed where you're using data and it suddenly stops working even though it says you have 3g still? Happens to me a lot. I use juice defender now to turn data off with the screen and on with the screen. It also turns data on every 15 minutes to check for email. Having that going on eliminated my Gmail sync issue since it is constantly resetting the data connection. Still sucks when data freezes in the middle of a video or a long Reddit news session.

What's really crazy is I restored my account from 2 weeks ago when sync was still working and guess what? Still won't work. Really frustrating!
I just had this same issue and these are the steps I did to fix it.
Turn google mail sync off and then back on
Closed all applications
Rebooted the device
Now email is coming in just fine on my Sam galaxy tab 2
Have you tried deleting data from the gmail app? Your mail is stored on the server, so you won't lose anything...
Same Problem
Having this same issue on my Sprint GNex now. I flashed the 4.2 Are You Jellin' mod last night and now Gmail won't auto sync. I restored apps from Titanium Backup. I've tried all the suggestions listed in this thread with no change. I'm also seeing a sync error message on the google account setting screen. Manual sync does work. Any ideas?
I seem to have figured out the problem, for me at least. I flashed a new ROM that included GApps then restored from Titanium Backup. I restored missing apps and system data. I had problems with most of the Google apps syncing and was receiving a sync error message. I tried reflashing the ROM and restoring again with the same result. I did a factory wipe and then restored just missing apps from Titanium Backup and select system data (my SMS/MMS) and everything works fine.
Both times Gmail was not included in the missing apps restore through Titanium and broke when I restored system data. It's been working for over 24 hours now. The other apps that weren't syncing properly are now working too (wallet, contacts, calendar)

Well folks it seems i have a problem... my gmail suddenly stopped syncing and it's driving me batty!
I've tried quite a few things to fix the issue to no avail It also refuses to send out emails which is pretty inconvenient and highly annoying.
I'm using the gmail app and not the stock email. Custom ROM (WildChild Sense).
Tried to change the settings, ad another email, turn off and on functions, no luck...
Any ideas would be appreciated!
ETA: Oh yeah, i've tried over the T-mo network AND Wifi, neither way does it work... other stuff (text, etc) are working fine.
-goto settings,
-then applications
-Then all applications
-Look for gmail and click it, then clear data
-click back and look for 'google services framework' click it, then clear data
-restart your phone and wait for everything to load up then open gmail and wait for it to sync and all should now work fine.
Note: after restarting phone you may get a message asking to accept google location service, click yes/accept
Sweet! Thank you, it seem to be working fine now... :victory:

I have a rooted Note 2 running 4.1,2 and just installed 'Box' from box.com. When I get a notification that I have new Gmail email, I'm presented with a choice of whether I want to open it with Gmail or Box. If I select Gmail, and select Gmail as the default, the Note 2 just reboots. Has anyone else had this problem? How can I disassociate Box from Gmail completely?
Thanks in advance.
Go to Settings and clear defaults and cache. When installing cloud application don't let it to take over your mail and any other stuff.

I do have both applications running on my system, and Gmail as default, and it is certainly not rebooting.
Are both Gmail and Box.net apps up to date?
Tried all the above - thanks. Eventually fixed by telling Box not to keep me logged in.

I had exactly the same problem. I eventually solved it by telling box not to allow uploading from other apps but that isn't really good enough because I do use it to upload from other apps.
So this happened after the app update...wtf is this?
I have this same problem. I've noticed that it happens after I've used the Amazon music app. The only fix I've found was to force stop the Amazon music app and it clears these blank messages. I'm now on Android 8.0.0 and had this issue as well with the latest Android version 7, I was on. I have the Pixel 128gb on Verizon.
Its a problem with android messages
Yeah, I don't think it has anything to do with the Amazon music app running in the background anymore. Previously, when I saw the prompt that Amazon music was running in the background, if I started the messenger app, I got those blank threads and as soon as I force stopped Amazon music, the blank threads disappeared. Now, they stay and just go away on its own. Even with the recent update to messenger 2.5.211, it still does it.
It's definitely an issue with messenger.

Did you ever find a fix for this? I'm having the same issue.
I have this problem also after restoring the sms with the sms backup and restore. Basically the messages are there but I can't see them, only those ghost threads/messages and I cannot scroll down on the message list to see more of them.
same problem. here is what i did.
I downloaded hangouts and manually set it as default app for sms.
Then i opened up hangouts and went through all the threads that messenger wouldnt show.
Then i went back and forced stopped messenger, cleared data, and set it back as default.

Unfortunately the hangouts is not supporting sms anymore and is though unable to be set as a default sms app.

i have no idea why i had typed hangouts, must have been late. i meant to say verizon messages.
I got it working. Just disable the messages app and choose yes when it asks if you want to go back to factory app. Then clear cache and data and enable the app again. Then you can view all the messages. After this updating the app through play store is also safe and the messages remain visible.
