is anyone else having trouble with multiple gmail accounts?
i get all my notifications instantly, like normal, for my first gmail account. but nothing gets pushed to my second one. if i go into the inbox and refresh it, then it works fine
but no push messages are getting through
i went like a week thinking i didnt get any email and i just happened to check it via the web and saw dozens of emails that my phone never synced
Check under settings>account & sync make sure the gmail box is tick for all account
ugh dammit now i feel dumb. i could have SWORN when i set up my accounts i checked gmail sync in there, but i guess i missed it haha
thanks

Well ive pretty much given up on getting my gmail pushed to my 8125 since nothing has seemed to work so i was just going to go back to using outlook to check my mail every 5 minutes. This used to work when i first set it up but i tried it today and whenever i hit send/receive it never brought up any messages even though i just sent it from my yahoo account. I then deleted the gmail account off of the phone and re-set it up. I sent a test message from my yahoo account, hit send/receive, and it showed up. I then sent a test message from my comcast account and it showed up also, one problem though....the first message from my yahoo account dissapeared. I thought it was strange so i hit send/receive again and the second message i sent to myself from comcast also dissapeared. Im not deleting the messages off of the servers or anything, they just dissapear whenever i hit send/receive. Im getting really fed up with trying to set up my email account and im very tempted to just go back to my treo....
I know the feeling...
I have a T-mobile MDA and I have the same problem with gmail. When I first set it up I had 200+ emails then everytime I did a send/receive I would loose some until finally I lost all of them. I tried downloading straight from gmail and the same thing happened. Now I can't get anything when I send/Receive. According to T-mobile this is a known issue with gmail...they said that gmail is still a beta setup and their pop settings don't always work. I have since just had my gmail forwarded and it seems to work..atleast I know that it is there
Well I don't know if this exactly a fix....but I use gmail as my main account and I just have my gmail forwarded to an exchange account I have. I mean...I do have to prune two accounts but, as for now, its the only soloution I have.
I just started a gmail account and set it to forward to my 8125. i've had pop accounts on my phone before and it kept my emails. now, for some reason, I will receive an email, read it, then it's gone. The phone seems to be deleting my emails. any suggestions?
Yep, that's gmail. Do a search, there's a bunch of things you can do that sorta kinda make it work the way you'd think pop3 should instead of the way gmail actually does.
Hey, go into the setting ontop of the page in gmail and then go to fowarding and pop settings , there is an option to turn off that feature and keep a copy in your gmail inbox

Hey all,
I've been having some problems with POP3 and gmail on my TyTN/8525. That problem being: it doesn't work anymore. It worked great for about a week, then just stopped working for no apparent reason. I didn't change any of my gmail settings during this time.
After it stopped working, I randomly got 5 of the 100+ e-mails that I was suppsoed to get. Gmail is receiving them fine and I can see them when I login to gmail, they just don't get downloaded when my phone pops it. I can send e-mail through gmail's pop fine.
Anyone have a clue what my problem might be?
Thanks,
Todd

Which wireless provider?
Have you tried deleting the Gmail account on the TyTn and then re-adding it?
Can you POP3 access it from you'r home computer etc (to make sure it is not a Gmail issue)?
If these do not help post you're setup so we can take a look
I think the problem seems to stem from the fact that Gmail breaks down your messages in groups, like around 300 or so messages at a time. On top of that, Pocket IE doesn't download the full messages by default and, as such, leaves a copy of the messages on the server. I think when this happens, Gmail doesn't prepare the next "group" of messages to send to you. Also, Pocket IE, by default, is set to show only messages from the last 3 days, so even though it may have downloaded a bunch of messages, you'll only see the ones that are 3 days old or less. You'll want to uncheck that option.
Try setting up your account as you normally would in the desktop mail app of your choice, Outlook Express for example. Make sure it isn't set to leave a copy of the messages on the server. If Outlook Express didn't download the first group of messages, make sure to do a manual send and receive. That will hopefully tell Gmail to prepare your next group of messages. Alternate Send/Receives with your phone and Gmail until you get to your most recent messages. Also, try putting recent in front of your user name, IE, "recent:[email protected]" instead of just your user name/e-mail address.
i find with gmail that it stops working every few weeks and i have to go into gmail on my pc and re-check the Get all pop email from now, ( it seems there are too many emails to be sent down )
using the "recent:" prefix before your login in your outlook username should fix this.

Anyone having problems with gmail i check my emails in Gmail app in phone however it marks them as read but on gmail.com shows them as unread and i still get a count on gmail app. anyone else having an issue with their gmail app
about an hour ago i was on gmail (website) from my comp and a notification came up with a link that said google was having technical probs with gmail and working to get them fixed....
My incredible is rooted and running CM7 however the guy that I work with has a stock incredible and his gmail is not syncing at all. You have to refresh it to get emails. This only starting happening once he got the new update. Before that gmail was working great. I have double checked all the setting for gmail and his account and everything is set correctly. I am starting to think that it has to do with the update more than on gmail's side.
Let me first start by saying that I hate hate hate Yahoo mail but after using it for 15 years, I can't get rid of it. Not sure if anyone else had this problem or not:
My first attempt was done by going to Accounts and sync/add account on the bottom/Email/ and then I picked the already made Yahoo mail account from that screen. I had nothing but weird things happen. Sync was erratic, if I deleted an email from PC it still existed on the phone and vice versa, etc. I could not change any of the settings such as "delete emails on server" to fix this.
Solution: I deleted the account and set it up a second time but this time I did not choose the already made icon after going to Accounts and sync/add account on the bottom/Email/ . Instead I chose OTHERS and let the S3 do it automatically from there. It works great now. You don't get the cute Y on the email icon in the notification bar but you get a generic email icon in there. Hope this helps someone.
