I was running the stock ROM up until 2 months ago and never had a problem with Exchange and push. If i was sitting at my desk and I got an email into my exchange account a couple second later my phone would by buzz with the message.
Then I rooted the phone and since then I have tried Kimera, Villian and now am on Cronos ROM. While they are way better then the stock when my exchange account is set to recieve items as they arrive it does not always do that. Most of the time if i unlock the phone a little while later I will have a bunch of messages pop up. Or I have to initiate the sync manually to see if there are any. It is the rare occasion that I actually get an email pushed to me properly. I have tried full wipes, different radios, different ROMs and the problem is always the same.
Does anyone have some suggestions on what they think the cause might be or better yet a fix.
Just tried two new ROMS this week. Problem is still occuring. Any suggestions?
tried making sure that you haven't got 3G / internet connection set to disable when idle?
And iv checked everything, sync is enabled everywhere. If I turn off sync and turn it on again, whatever is waiting comes through, but then never again. I even just did a factory reset and flashed the new update, and its still broken, before and after update. WTH could cause Gmail to stop syncing that a factory reset wont fix?????
even i am facing the same problem since this morning....gmail wont auto sync!! i have to refresh it manually.
Another thing i noticed is that i cant find the visual voicemail app in the market...does anyone have the apk for it?
wow im glad to here its not just me, i missed about 2 days worth of emails (I should have known...no way i could actually go 2 days with out some bs from work) before i realized it
Me as well. I haven't updated my phone yet.. so I don't think it's the ota causing the issue. I've missed numerous emails since yesterday.
Glad its not just me, I wonder if Gmail is borked for everyone at the moment? Im surprised we're not hearing more about this....
ive done everything but a factory reset, i have not had gmail sync since about 12pm MST
try going into settings/applications and find gmail and click it. clear the cache first and see if it works, otherwise clear data... it'll resync from scratch. this happens randomly and this usually fixes it.

ive been doing that about once an hour, still nothing.
I did both of those things multiple times, they didnt help. Then I did a factory reset, that also did nothing. I feel like if a factory reset doesn't help the problem is probably on google's end.
Mine has been doing this since yesterday (before OTA) and has been doing it today as well (since OTA).
I had to load the shipping ROM due to deleting Google Goggles before the OTA. So I doubt if a factory reset or anything will help the situation. I'm not getting automatic syncing of Gmail at all. I believe its something on Google's end. Hopefully it gets sorted out soon.

I've updated with the OTA and my gmail is syncing, so I doubt it's the update that's causing the issue. I did have this happen to me before when gmail stopped syncing, but all I had to do was to go back to "settings" -> "accounts & sync" and turn on auto-sync for gmail again.
I am only getting my gmail via manually choosing refresh. Also, deleting on the phone will not delete on my computer. Annoying. This has happened before, and seems to get resolved in a couple of days.
Seems to be an issue with other Android handsets as well.
I have a link, from Google Support forum, but since I'm a new user here, it will not allow me to submit the link.
Seems like Google is working on a fix though.
Well, that makes me feel a little bit better.
I noticed yesterday it wasn't syncing, so I followed the normal clearing of cache and data, and checked all the syncing settings.
It definitely has to be an issue on the other end for everyone to be having this problem at the same time.
same here. I thought the G2 update messed up the Gmail sync, but then I realized that my Nexus One was doing the same thing as well which I use as a tablet from time to time via wifi. Let's be patient and have Google work the issue, just a matter of time.
Easy fix
Go to settings and disable auto sync
Then turn off phone
Turn phone back on
Go to settings and enable auto sync
This fixed my issue after installing the updated OTA

Tried dilfatx's fix to no avail. Hopefully Google fixes this up quickly.
You are correct.. it worked for me for few hours.. tested it out.. now its not sync again.. this is a whole other issue..

Android central is reporting some issues with Google and sync e-mail accounts. Apparently Google is already hard work resolving the issue.
IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE OTA UPDATE!!!!
I got my G2 yesterday. I set up Exchange for my work and everything worked fine until today. I got an email followed shortly by a message that my id or password may be wrong. I double check, and re-enter my password, because this has been happening fairly often for the last 6 months, and this appears to fix it. It synced fine, but now, when I receive a text, I also get an exchange email of the text.
Never seen this before. Anyone know what's going on?
P.S. After this started, the phone stopped syncing email again, but the texts are still transcribing because I'm getting them on my other phones.
UPDATE: I figured out the problem. Please delete MOD. I'm a moron who panicked instead of following normal troubleshooting procedures.
And now syncing is working??? WTH is going on? I am trying to delete and reinstall my exchange now.
I'm such an idiot. I somehow accidentally checked "SMS sync". Never seen that option before. Once I unchecked, it no longer syncs the texts.
I just flashed Gummy ROM Kitkat 4.4 on my sprint S4 and I am having a few issues. My gmail will not sync anymore. the generic email app gets my emails right away, but gmail app will not sync. Also seems like mobile data is not working right, its really flaky now, keeps cutting in and out....mainly out, the only time I can actually do anything that needs data is through wifi. Also, my time rarely updates. Just wondering if anyone else had these issues or knows how to fix them, before I go back to stock. Thanks much.

I am having the same exact problem. The built in mail app syncs without any problems.
Alright. My phone is having a huge problem syncing. First I noticed it with Gmail. I can tell how instant I am getting emails because I am sitting here at work on my PC. I can send an email from where ever (in this case my outlook work address), send it...see the email pop up on my screen in the Gmail internet tab. Here is the thing. It takes anywhere from 1-20 mins for the email to finally get to my phone. It is SO random. Sometimes if I pick my phone up and turn the screen on, it pushes through alittle faster. I have tried everything (I think) the last two days. Obviously all my settings are correct. AutoSync, the Sync settings in the gmail itself.
To see if it was just gmail, I put my work email on the phone to see how that works. It's EXACTLY the same. Sporadic syncing. I then tried cloudmagic email app which people rave about. Same thing.
What gives? I've about had it with this phone. I even tried a factory reset this morning. Still have the issue. I'm thinking of taking the phone back honestly. Could this be a hardware thing to do with connection? I've tried all of this with strong wifi on, and with perfect 4G signal. Any ideas would be GREATLY appreciated.
Thanks
Nobody here has ANY idea what could be going on with my phone? I thought I fixed it and had it narrowed down to the WiFi st work but I just tried it again and it took 6 minutes for it to show up on my phone. If the phone is awake, it seems to be faster. Does this sound like it could be a hardware issue? Should I take this phone back? I already did a factory reset ect. Someone please help!!
