Gmail Sync - G2 and Desire Z General

I didn't see another thread about this... but it seems to be more than just my G2. My wife's vibrant is also not working well recently. Is Gmail sync screwed up? I have a nightmare of a time sending any picture emails out (I haven't tried normal emails) and if I delete the message on my phone it doesn't delete on PC. Hitting refresh does not do anything. Any fixes for this?

I've had some similar problems recently.
It seemed to have disapeared by the next day.
I also deleted the emails that couldn't get sent.
Maybe that had helped.

[Q] Issue with the Gmail App

For some reason my Gmail App has stopped working properly about 1hr ago. Every time I open the app the conversations start loading then get to the bottom of the screen the force close message below pops up:
"The process com.google.process.gapps has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again. dumpstate_app_201008062027_com_google_process_gapps.log has been saved. Use *#9900# to copy out log."
No success after rebooting the phone several times. Can anyone please shed some light? I really have no clue to what happened ... now I have to use the email client .
Thanks in advance for your help, really appreciate it.
I just checked to see if it was a problem with the app itself and mine is loading all conversations fine. Did you delete or replace anything prior to?
No I didn't do anything to the phone, not even install or uninstall any apps. This is so strange.
Maybe try removing the account and doing it again... It shouldn't mess anything else up. I'll try it out on my phone now to confirm.
[Update] Wouldn't let me do it because it's the primary. A factory reset is the only way to completely remove it. You can try clicking on sync gmail to stop it and then click on it again to force a refresh. Idk if that'll fix your particular problem though
Try going to settings, applications, manage applications, menu button, filter, all. Select gmail, clear data and clear cache. Then do the same with gmail storage, then try to resync.

I did a factory setting, unfortunately it did not fix the issue.
It doesn't work...
Ok, after 4hrs of insanity trying to figure out what suddently went wrong with my vibrant. I came to a conclusion that it's not my phone because when I added my wife's GMAIL account, the force close did not come up and all the conversations were loaded without any issues.
Apparently, the server where my GMAIL account is located seems to have some problems since I keep getting sync errors with contacts and calendar as well.
Have you tried logging into your account from an actual computer? Perhaps there is a problem with your account. I know I had weird sync errors when my account got compromised by a spammer last month, and google locked my account until I changed the password.

The weirdest thing is when I used my PC I didn't encounter any issues... That's why I thought the problem came from the phone @ the beginning.
Since this morning everything seems got back to normal. All the conversations loaded no problem.

I'm getting this now, too. My first two screens of gmail are shown but if I scroll down to where it says "Loading conversations" the after a few seconds the error pops up. I wonder if there is a "bad"email in our inbox that the gmail app doesn't know how to handle - something along three lines of unexpected characters in the email header/subject/etc or some partis badly formatted or too long like the header or something in it. Tomorrow (Sunday) I will try archiving my old messages on gmail and see if that makes the error go away. If it does then it a pretty good bet that one of the emails is causing three problem (the app still shouldn't crash but it would at least help explain what is happening).

Well I was able to avoid the error by archiving or deleting old emails in the inbox. I noticed when you have a large volume in one single label it causes the crash while loading conversations. I do not think it comes from a "bad" email, it's just a glitch in the app itself that folks @ Google need to work on.
Another thing that I noticed is when I logged-in my email using Nexus One, the force close did not occur but there was a failed connection-try again message.
Same problem here, noticed it today... good to know im not alone heh, but like the OP said im pretty sure it is a glitch in the app, so we'll maybe have to wait for a fix.
Confirmed, only by trying to scroll down really fast (and I'm on wifi). This was not an issue on my g1, of course I was using custom rom's. It'll certainly be addressed.
I have not encountered this problem with the Gmail app yet but I have had the exact same issue come up with the Messaging app twice so far.
But the problem has not stopped me from using the Messaging app and I was able to go right back into it each time it happened. It happened once about 30 minutes ago, and another time over a week ago.
I think it may have to do with the 200 text limit that I have turned off. Since Inbox is at 173 right now with Outbox 89, last deleted a few days ago and also with 33 conversations.
It does get a little laggy too but I have noticed it lag with only a few conversations with maybe an overall total of 30 text messages. I never had it lag this much on the G1 and I would have over 1000+ text messages and with cyanogenmod.
I am having the same issue.
I am getting the same thing too.
Mine started late last week after I updated the Facebook app. I tried uninstalling/reinstalling (highly doubt it was related, but due to coincidence I had to try it) and it was doing the same thing.
I did a factory wipe - same thing. I ran fix permissions and rebooted - same thing.
I am not sure it is related to having too many items in one label as I have just shy of 300 items in my inbox, and I have had about the same (give or take 2-3) for months (I use many, many labels to manage things), but I am going to try to organize, move, delete, archive, etc. some of my messages and see what happens.
Google knows of the issue.

Thanks for the link. I haven't had time to search today while I've been at work.
FYI, it looks like this may have been fixed. Mine has stopped doing it this morning. Checking the issue link that laris posted, nothing confirmed from Google that it is fixed yet though. Couple of people reporting that theirs is fixed too.

[Q] Anyone having facebook problems?

Hey guys, I'm new to the forums, and I just picked up my vibrant two days ago... my twitter sync works perfectly, but my facebok one unfortunately doesnt... none of my contacts pictures show up, and theres no sync to their account...
what i tried was downloading the facebook app and now when i click to view a contacts profile, it only takes me to mine, and the pictures STILL dont show up...
Does anyone have any advice they can please offer? I'm a major facebooker for business and the sync was one of the main selling points for me... am I doing something wrong or should I exchange my vibrant for a new one?
Thanks!!
It wouldn't be a problem with the device itself I think. My contacts do show their profile pictures and status updates but it hasn't been retrieving data for a couple days so I'm assuming It's just a server issue. Give it a couple days and see what turns up

Same here... it hasn't updated anything in days, so my dumbass deleted the account and added it again, but that only made it worse, cuz now it says "sync is currently experiencing problems. It will be back shortly" so I guess I can only wait now... I am not sure, but I think this happened after I did an update to the app, but I am not sure
Mine did this as well for a couple of days when I first got the phone. Then it just randomly synced one day, so from my understanding, it's on Facebook's end, not your phone.
Damn Facebook lol.

Multiple Gmail accounts

I usually carry three Gmail accounts with me in my pocket at all times. I've had no issue adding the first one on the MT4G but the second and third gave me problems. They confirmed and synced in the Accounts menu, but.wouldn't appear in the main Accounts list afterwards. I had to add each several times before they appeared. This happens after OTA as well.
Does anyone else see this? Thanks.

Cannot reproduce the problem. I have two gmail accounts and one exchange account and they all appear immediately. of course the syncing needs some time.
You could sync one and the use the Email app instead of Gmail.
I think the Gmail app is very superior to the email app so I'd rather stick with the big G if I can. I was able to get it to work but not after a few tries. Dunno why that was the case, but I guess the bottom line is it's on there?
I'm really liking this phone!
I had the same problem. I was connected to Wifi. I shut off the Wifi radio and reinstalled the gmail account with no problem. I hope that helps.

Phone Won't Sync Email Accounts

Accounts are set up right. Sync is on. The phone will pick up new emails on a restart, but after that, it won't give any new email notifications. Also, if I open gmail and hit refresh, it won't show new emails that I KNOW are sitting in my inbox. Only time it gets new emails is right after a reboot. Not a clue what the problem could be. Any ideas?
I am having the same issue, especially when it comes to archiving emails using the Gmail app. I hit archive, come back to my computer an hour later, and everything is still sitting in Inbox as unread.
Yea, I am still having this issue. No emails will sync. I am fearful that I am just going to have to wait for 2.2 and a custom ROM to get a clean install and a properly working device.
I was at my local verizon store yesterday with a text issue. They said it was a known issue and being fixed on the next update. They said the text and a email sync issue both were to be fixed. They did not know what update though. IE: 2.2 or the smaller updates. Hope this helps.

I have had the exact issues usually after restoring a nandroid. I have posted this in another thread. Works for me every time.
Turn sync off.
menu/settings/Applications/Manage applications/gmail storage/force stop then hit clear data.
And do the same for gmail/force stop and clear data.
reboot. And turn sync back on.
good day.
I was having this issue and I did a *228 and reprogramed my roaming and it has been great since.

This appears to have solved my issues! Thanks!!!
I use the gmail app, but it seems to be very slow sending email. Also, the stock email app truncates ALL my email with no way to get the end half. Does anyone else have this issue? I'm rooted, using jt1134 super clean, stock kernel.

Gmail count issue driving me nuts looking for some help

Hey all I posted this topic a little while back but can't find a fix.
Since updating my nexus s on fido to 2.3.6 (unrooted) my gmail Outbox is a mess. It sends the emails fine - but the number beside the Outbox just keeps getting larger. Never resets back to zero. Even after a successful send. I've tried resetting the app data and even the device a couple times. I'm running the email on synchronize mode and i have multiple Gmail accounts on my device.
Has anyone experienced this issue and is there a way to fix it? I can't seem to delete the Gmail application to try to reinstall it and there doesn't seem to be an update available....
Cheers

Open gmail on a computer and delete the emails that are older and not showing up

Also, 2.3.6 is very buggy. Could be one of the bugs as well.
