Since last week I updated to Android M on GPe. Now there is a bug in the Gmail app for Outlook.com syncing. Huge battery drain on Exchange services and mails ar staying in Outbox and says "queue". I think this is a problem on Gmail app and not a problen om my device or settings. Are there people with the same problems, or is there a fix?
Some one with same problems? And someone knows a fix?

I had absolutely the same issue just after an official Twitter client was installed in my Desire. Its deinstallation was a good solution

There are a number of issues with the gmail app. The answer is to use the mail app and connect to google's exchange server.

Hi I have a sprint EVO and I cannot get emails on my phone. My fb is synced and works almost fine but my gmail doesn't work. I only get emails the first time I logged in my account but after that it does not update, even when I manually refresh. Does anyone have this problem? I tried both the HTC app and the GMAIL app and they both don't work. I did not root my phone btw; it's the stock rom.
Also on a side note, about FB, not all my facebook friends are on there. One of my friends does not show up in my contacts even though she's my friend and doesn't have any privacy settings turned on.
Thank you!!

Hey, I'm also having some problems with Hotmail being setup as Exchange Activesync account.
I have found that it will not sync all emails, will not sync all folders and as soon as I delete an email it will automatically resync and re-download the deleted messages.

Hi,
I'm also finding this EXACT problem! It's definitely something to do with the HTC mail app if that is what you two are using?
I did read somewhere that it's caused by the way the app syncs mails - from what I could deduce it logs on each time (or possibly at random, I'm not 100% sure) and this is seen as a threat by the Hotmail EAS system which then temporarily locks access to your account using Activesync!
I tested this theory by creating a new account, and configuring Improved Email (free on Market, by "mtwebster") and the account sync'd all day long. I then left my normal account for 24hrs, still locked, with Imp. Mail reporting "Connection Error". Tried again another 24hrs later using the non-HTC app and it sync'd fine too!
I then discovered the mic was busted and had to pick up a swap today...same issue with my Hotmail now, using the HTC Mail app!
My work EAS account sync's all day long without kicking up ANY fuss whatsoever!
Hotfail rides again...
Hope this helps,
Karl

Anyone using Exchange on the native email client suddenly notice a huge battery drain/wakelock with Exchange server?
I haven't changed my email setup in weeks and I've never had this problem before. My phone is a little over 5 hours off charger and at 19%! Exchange services is at 19% with a 1h 13m wakelock on BBS.
I have Gmail and Hotmail (yeah, yeah) accounts both set up as push. Only the Gmail syncs contacts and calendar (I've double-checked everything). I probably get ~20 emails/day or so.
Until today, I would get >24 hours with light usage, and a full day with heavier usage. This literally started today out of the blue.
I searched all of XDA and the GN forums specifically and didn't see anything that addressed this particular issue. Any suggestions?
TIA
Anyone?
The actual service is com.android.exchange.Exchange Services

The weird thing is that it just started doing this, even though I haven't changed any settings in weeks. And not having push email would suck...
This has happened to me from time to time on CM and AOSP ROMs, but not on my GN yet. It's a Google problem IIRC and something that they "fixed" in the past, but they obviously haven't.
I'd observe this 1/10 nightly ROM flashes so I'd keep an eye on it for the first couple of hours afterwards and kill it if it was starting to go rogue.
It's a known, flagged, issue (on Google) but I don't have the link handy.
i noticed similar Exchange Mail behavior on my phone with any ROM that i flashed. i narrowed the constant-sync to my calendar. when i disabled calendar sync, the battery drain stopped. my research suggested the problem was related to a corrupt calendar or recurring calendar entries. so i archived all my Exchange calendar entries (which removed them from my calendar) removed then re-added the Exchange account to my phone and finally restored the calendar entries i needed. so far, no issues and i've flashed 3 ROMs and the problem has not returned. somewhat extreme, but it worked!
I have no issues with stock Exchange and Gmail apps on rooted 4.0.4.
You could try deleting and recreating the email accounts to see if that helps.
Also got the issue this night. 25% gone after 4 hours sleep, wakelock because of the Exchange service ... Disabled google sync, then reenabled it 2 hours later, and no problem ... It gets stuck somehow sometimes ...
I had the same problem on my SGS2 on ICS. I finally had no choice but to migrate my email to Google Apps. In the end it was the best decision since the Archive function on the GMail app is amazing and it simply works 10x better than any Exchange ActiveSync client.
The Google Apps connector for Outlook also works almost as well as Exchange Server.
