hi i just installed cyanogenmod rom on my phone and i login my gmail account...cuz my internet wasnt working at the time.. is there a way i can go back and login my gmail account or do i have to reinstall everything.... thanks
what? i couldnt understand any of that. did you log in or not? if you didnt, just open up gmail and it will prompt you to log in...
with cyanogenmod rom when ever i click on gmail... it just closes right away... i go into setting and try to go to data sync and it wont let me... doesn't do anything...
go to settings>data synchronization
ive tried that it doesn't let me do anything... it doesn't open anything... but in dev tools app there is a google login service...
i knwo there is a way to do it it said so on the page that you skipped that you can do it later but i dont know exactly what it is that you need to do. If all else fails you can always just wipe
oh wait go to your apps drawer and open up Gmail and see what happens
Try this :
Go to settings/applications/manage applications, find "Google apps", delete its data and then reload the Market app (or any Google app that uses your account). It should ask you for your login details again.
Hope this helps
Every time I boot I get the error com.android.gm has to force close. My Gmail app is com.android.gm-2. I think this is the older Gmail app which I cannot find in /system/app or /data/app. Anyone know where this is located and if I can just delete it with root explorer to fix the problem?
I was having the same issue after doing a 'back to stock' last night. I did the following and it now launches: Settings/Applications/Manage Applications/Gmail/Clear data.

this fixed mine too
I actually found the file in /data/data and deleted it. Upon a reboot and opening gmail again it was fixed. Thanks

Thanks for the post, After turning o, changing battery and starting up, I couldn't open gmail and it fc on startup and at regular intervals with phone running.
Galaxy S with XXJPY and latest Gmail 2.3.
I used titanium and deleted the data, so same thing, worked a treat. Good to know others have experienced this too.
I had the same problem when I tried to launch the Gallery app. Doing the same thing with Gallery, Media Container Service, and Media Storage apps fixed it. Just make sure your photos are first offloaded to a PC, since this wipes them all out!
Tip: When adding in your gmail account it will prompt you for X number of days to download. If you've got lots of emails don't download all of it just download a few days worth should be good enough.
My stock email app has quit pushing emails from my accounts. I have combed through all the settings, incoming & outgoing, and re-set everything but still no results. It will only bring in emails manually.
However, my Gmail app is working.
I have lightspeed 1.0.2 rooted.
Any help is appreciated. Thanks

Thanks for the reply but that is over my head. I am a Noob. I know where to look at the log when an error occurs with trying to put a ROM in and it fails to install but I am not sure where to find the log to examine how an App is functioning.
Question, I have Acer Sync frozen in TB. I am not sure if they are related but maybe someone here knows. I am not sure why my GMail works and pushes new emails to my tablet and phone but not the stock client.
If I can not get this to work, any recommendations on an Email app from the market that I could use and see multiple email accounts?
One other thing, just thinking out loud trying to figure this out....
My phone (old HTC G1) has the same stock email apk. It also has stopped pushing emails from my yahoo and work server to my phone. (The same way my tablet has stopped)
Gmail still pushes to both devices no problem.
Could it be an account issue with having two devices registered somehow? I can't imagine this would be the case.

Download "catlog" (free) from market. Start log recording. Start email app. Switch back to log and look
for any errors.
Might not help, but might give you some kind of clue to the nature of the problem. Never used Yahoo! for mail, wish I could help more.

Interesting program. It really shows how much is running in the background on these things.
Anyway, here is the result:
Attempt 1 based on your instructions. Nothing really stands out that I can see. There were no new emails in either inbox.
08-27 18:05:30.010 I/Email (10845): ReconcilePopImapAccountsSync: start
08-27 18:05:30.190 I/Email (10845): ReconcilePopImapAccountsSync: already running
08-27 18:05:30.200 I/Email (10845): ReconcilePopImapAccountsSync: already running
08-27 18:05:30.210 I/Email (10845): ReconcilePopImapAccountsSync: done
08-27 18:05:52.270 D/Email (10845): *** synchronizeMailboxGeneric POP3***
08-27 18:05:56.210 D/Email (10845): *** synchronizeMailboxGeneric ***
Attempt 2.
This time I used GMail to send myself a test email with my stock Email APK open and running in the background. It should have pushed the notice that a new email arrived. It did nothing. Once I switched windows using the button down by the home button on the tab this is the result.
08-27 18:18:22.740 D/Email (10845): *** synchronizeMailboxGeneric ***
08-27 18:18:24.150 W/Email (10845): Line 8: Unexpected end of headers detected. Boundary detected in header or EOF reached.
08-27 18:18:24.150 W/Email (10845): Line 8: Body part ended prematurely. Higher level boundary detected or EOF reached.
Any ideas?
Well. I seemed to have found a fix for the time being. I went into the settings and app management and deleted the data from the email apk and also force stopped the email exchange services, then re-booted.
Sent another test email from Gmail to Yahoo (after resetting up the account settings) and it pushed through.
Seems some of the apps once you flash a custom ROM need to be reset sometimes.
I've rooted my Fire and installed the Android Market without a problem. When I
first opened the market I logged in with my Google account to make sure everything
worked. Since I got this device for my dad, I'd rather he log in with his own Google
account. I've cleared the app data, and even deleted and re-installed. I can't get
the option to log in with a different google account and it stays with mine. Is there
a solution to this? Has anyone else experienced this?
Without access to the Account and Sync menu, I believe you'll need to uninstall and do a fresh reinstall of the market
I've uninstalled the market and re-installed with the apk. Or is there a more precise uninstall I should be doing?
In the Android development subforum here the long how to install market thread has reference to getting gmail to sync and those posts reference another thread with a link to a Sync Settings app. That will allow you to add another gmail account or delete one in addition to setting up sync items and auto sync. If I knew the post I'd gladly supply it but all I remember is where I found reference to the app.
Then just add your dad's email then subtract yours. Then to market and your set.
Added: found reference in a thread in this subforum on syncing contacts: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=19461785&postcount=2

Worked great. I installed "Quick Sync Settings" from the market. Thank you for providing that link.
I just hit "menu" and added an account from the Market. Or maybe GMail. It was pretty simple, really.
The menu from the market app wash giving me the option. Not until I added another gmail account through the sync settings it did.
Hi I have a similar question but just about the amazon app store. I have been using a separate email account to buy apps than the one to buy all my kindles and books. Is there any work around to have both amazon.com accounts logged in or to keep the apps and books installed while I am on my other account or the other?
I have rooted the tablet and have my google market running fine so I might just have to stick to that.
Thank you
Can't you install Anycut from the android market, open it, create new activity, select accounts and sync or whatever the activity is called, and then go from there?
Additionally can you open the Gmail app, menu, accounts, add account...from here, go to the android market and then you should have 2 different gmail accounts to choose between?

Thanks for that. I tried it and it crashes the system. I actually have two account from google on my market, but my main problem is accessing the apps that are registered to my gmail account. Mainly because my kindle account is a separate email and every time you deregister the Kindle it deletes your books or installs the apps.

Thanks for your help
Anyone figure out how to remove the main gmail account without having to do a factory reset? I made the mistake of putting in an email address I didn't want to have added. I've already tried adding a second GMail account and removing the primary and got the prompt to factory reset.

Yeah I was able to remove gmail accounts using anycut. I am just stuck with the amazon drm sadly
I have an N7 3g. I'm using MoDaCa's JR-4. Outgoing emails continually get stuck in the outbox and don't go out. I think it has something to do with N7. I have never had this problem with other android cell phones, PC, etc.
Is there a solution?
Thanks
I have had this problems on phones before, but not yet on the N7 *knocks on wood.
First I would check your sync settings to make sure all is appropriate.
The way I was able to remedy the situation was to either uninstall gmail, and reinstall, or just uninstall the latest update. I haven't had that fail me yet. You could also try clearing data, cache, and force stop the app from settings first.
(may require reboot after)
Good luck!
i had this issue in Gmail today on the N7 running a CM 10.1 nightly. i used to see this a lot as well on Gingerbread, and uninstalling the app/clearing data in the app does work but makes you lose the draft you had written(which sucks if it was a long one!). i used to solve it by clicking reply and creating a dummy message in the same thread, saving that message as a draft, then going into my drafts folder and the message that got stuck would have an option to send... or something like that, and that worked. however, i couldn't seem to get it to work today, on Gmail 4.1.2 fortunately my stuck message today was small, so i just cleared data in the app and rewrote it, and it did send then.
You could also just highlight the whole draft and copy, then paste when done. It should be copied to your clip board and not the gmail app. I suppose it is always safer to save it somewhere before deleting, though I would think if you were going to do that, you would want to save the copy in a different app like ever note.

I'll try that here on Jelly Bean next time, but that actually wasn't possible before. When the message got stuck sending, it was in a limbo state where the text of the message wasn't accessible to be copied! I definitely tried that because i lost some pretty long drafts!

I have rolled back gmail to the earlier version several times but it keeps updating behind my back and emails become stuck in the outbox again.

I have rolled back gmail to the earlier version several times but it keeps updating behind my back and emails become stuck in the outbox again. Also, although I'm currently using JR-4, I have CM-10, PA, and stock rooted ROMS nandroided. I could restore any of them and test, but I'm pretty certain it's ubiquitous. It's either the gmail app or android 4.21.
Also, I have a Galaxy Note 2. 2 versions of gmail are installed: 1.0 and 4.21, and emails don't get stuck. N7 only has has 4.21 installed. Why doesn't N7 also have 1.0 installed?
Also, I just cleared cache and data and the email is resynching. I'm certain that the problem will return. I love the N7, but this is really annoying.

Is there a particular version of Gmail that works better? If so, have you gone into your market settings and disabled automatic updating? I've been running the 4.1.2 version for a long time now, and it never updates to 4.2. I also disabled update notifications so it doesn't bug me at all.
But yeah, it's an annoying issue. Sometimes i turn to K9 Mail, as it works great for Gmail accounts. Plus i love the dark theme option. In the end i like the way native Gmail synchs tho.

Thanks for your help. How can I downgrade from 4.2.1 to 4.1.2? I think that will work until Google addresses this issue. The Disable link inside "App Info" used to show this downgrade capability. However, that text was probably there when I was using a different Rom. I have MoDaCa JR-4 running now and I think I want to keep it.
I think if you flashed a ROM that came with 4.2, you won't have the option to uninstall updates. In any case, i posted 4.1.2 in the 3rd to last post in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2005006. You can just uninstall 4.2 and install 4.1.2 if you wish. I will warn you tho, I did have the stuck sending issue yesterday, but I think that was the first time.

Oh sorry, if it is a /system app in the ROM, then you'll need to use Titanium Backup or a file explorer app. The free version of Titanium will do the job.

Yep, you might even want to disable automatic updating first, haha. And If I remember correctly, the apk installs just by tapping install, no need to paste it into /sysyem/app, I don't think...

Bad news 4.1.2 emails are now stuck in outbox.
This happens because Google wants to take over your e-mail service; in other words you must be using your Android or smartphone's e-mail app instead of Google's GMAIL App. There are two fixes to this problem, first is to download Goggle's GMAIL App and use that for email communication; and second is to ask google to allow 'less secure' apps i.e. non-google to access your e-mails (i know!) Here are the steps for the second option:
Allowing less secure apps to access your account
Google may block sign-in attempts from some apps or devices that do not use modern security standards. Since these apps and devices are easier to break into, blocking them helps keep your account safe.
Some examples of apps that do not support the latest security standards include:
The Mail app on your iPhone or iPad with iOS 6 or below
The Mail app on your Windows phone preceding the 8.1 release
Some Desktop mail clients like Microsoft Outlook and Mozilla Thunderbird
Change account access for less secure apps
To help keep Google Apps users' accounts secure, we may block less secure apps from accessing Google Apps accounts. As a Google Apps user, you will see a "Password incorrect" error when trying to sign in. If this is the case, you have two options:
Option 1: Upgrade to a more secure app that uses the most up to date security measures. All Google products, like Gmail, use the latest security measures.
Option 2: Change your settings to allow less secure apps to access your account. We don't recommend this option because it might make it easier for someone to break into your account. If you want to allow access anyway, follow these steps:
Go to the "Less secure apps" section in My Account.
Next to "Access for less secure apps," select Turn on. (Note to Google Apps users: This setting is hidden if your administrator has locked less secure app account access.)
If you still can't sign in to your account, the "password incorrect" error might be caused by a different reason.
