For some reason only a very small number of my contacts appear in my People app. If I open Gmail I have over 50 entries, but only about 10 are listed in my People app. Any idea how to get everyone to show up in my People app?
Thanks!

When in doubt, give the device a reboot. If that doesn't work, log into Gmail and reset the sync contacts part (take the tick off that, save it, go back in and re-enable). If these two things don't work, I'm out of ideas.

Title says it all. I have tried everything I have found in this forum with no luck. Basic problem is I have to click refresh in gmail to recieve my email. I am not rooted and my htc evo and desktop all work flawlessly and notify me about new emails. Any ideas would be helpful.

Go to settings / accounts and sync / and verify you dont have any red icons on the gmail account. If you do there are normally error why. You can also ensure you have mail checked to synchronize as well as contacts.
That is the first step that comes to mind. If you have not already, delete amd readd the acct. You will want to play close attention when setting back up the settings on each setup page. You may have set sync frequency to manual or something.

I have deleted the account and deleted the data from the gmail app under manage applications. I have checked and unchecked the sync setting many times. Each time I re check the gmail sync it syncs fine and if I have a new email it will notify me but after that if I get an email I get no notification on my SGT unless I click refresh in the app or uncheck then re check sync.

What are your notification settings in the gmail account application?

Notify in system bar when email arrives

Do you have any other Android devices? If so, do they sync correctly?
Do you have any type of authentication set in gmail?
Have you tried a factory reset?
Are you using the gmail app and not the email app?
Do Google Talk notifications work correctly?
Sorry if some of these questions sound dumb, but better to cover all bases before moving on.
Awe good point.... I think he is using the email app vs the gmail app. I dont think the notification option mentioned is available in the gmail app.

Trust me they are not dumb questions I did tech support for a few years... It is just sad when you have to ask "Is the computer plugged into the wall socket?" Anyway yes I have an HTC EVO the gets the IMAP push just fine as does my desktop running Chrome. I have just a regular single password set up for gmail. I have not done a factory reset yet. I am using the gmail app. I dont use google talk but google voice notification work. The voice notifications are not IMAP but set on a timer ever 15 minutes however.
I had this same problem and tried everything toto make it work. I never got it fixed, so I did a factory reset and it works fine now.
Thats what I am thinking of trying. Wish it could be simpler though. :\

I think i had this once.... But a delete and readd fixed it. Do you have your gmail setup to backup your apps and bookmarks to chrome? You can also use mybackup pro to backup other on device media and OS settings. =)

Just tried a factory reset and the problem remains. Could my router be blocking the push. Chrome gets the push fine on the same router I use the extension "Google Mail Checker" I am out of Ideas.
Try restarting your router just in case.
I don't know if this applies to your issue? http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/Google Mobile/thread?tid=3a06c995ce0f82ae&hl=en
Yep that is the same problem I am having. That page was my first try for a fix before posting. I went through all of those steps and it didnt resolve the issue thats when I posted here. I am begining to think I am just out of luck.

I have noticed that I get no lights at all when booting up or shuting down or ever. Is that normal?

Completely disabled firewall on my router and boom it works. WOOT! Do you know what port # IMAP could be using different than what chrome is using.
Re enabled firewall still working. Beats me. :-|

Very odd. Would think a router would come out of the box ready to support email protocols.

Hey guys,
Trying to sync my contacts with those one Facebook that way when they call me their profile pic shows up. But I don't see an option to sync. I'm running miui 1.8.12 with tiamat kernel. I know with other roms I had that option.

what VENOMENON_24 is trying to say is go to the market and download the facebook app. (dont log in through the browser) when you sign into the facebook app it will ask you to "sync with contacts" select yes and your good to go.
I am using the Facebook app. It sync only some of the contacts not all. I also try matching the names exactly how they have it in fb only shows what seems like coding but won't sync to their fb

go to settings in the facebook app and hit Sync All
For those that aren't being matched with their Facebook profile, but that have an entry from Facebook in your contacts app...
Go to the Contacts app and find the person you want to merge to the FB contact. Select the contact, select menu > edit contact, then menu > join.
Aside from a couple of people, mine synced up perfectly. I didn't have to do anything special through MIUI other than join 3 people because they have idiotic Facebook names that aren't their given names.
Some people use SyncMyPix or whatever the app is called to get photos to show in Contacts. It may be worth trying if you still have problems.
MIUI isn't the same as Sense. The social networking integration that's a part of Sense isn't native in AOSP roms. I think Facebook and other such sites are kind of lame, so I don't miss it.

Plain thanks for the info. Didnt realized after edit there was another sub menu to select join.

I just purchased the GS3 and love it! I did a sync with my facebook app and only added with existing contacts but it now shows ALL my facebook friends. Is there a way to fix this? Also the pictures that sync from facebook to this phone are all pixelated and not clear like on my Sensation. Besides that, this phone is awesome! Is there anyway to fix these isses?

Use haxsync app. Its not free but works the best. after install go to settings> account and sync, then sync contacts. When you use this make sure to delete the Facebook syncing so it doesn't conflict with it. You will still find some duplicate with haxsync but not as many and you can join duplicate ones. This is the closest were gonna get to HTCs fb contact migration. And the contact pics are higher resolution.

If you want to use the sync feature through the Facebook app, the only way I have found for it not to add ALL contacts, is to use an older version. 1.8.1 is the newest one I have found where "sync with existing" actually works. Still going to be pixelated though. If you don't want it pixelated I would suggest an app like the one suggested above or something like syncmypix.

I use Facebook contact Sync. You can choose the size of the contact pictures, sync all or only existing, and it's free. It also updates statuses for your contacts.

So I rooted earlier today :good: (Thanks to the amazing people of the ROOT GODS) :good: and now I keep getting a sync issue of "To many Calender deletes" and "To many Contacts deletes". Has anyone else experienced this? It is asking me to: Delete the items, undo the items, do nothing for now. I have a lot in my Google calender for specific reasons and cannot delete this info. any ideas??????
Anyone???

This may have worked just in case anyone else has the same issue. I went into accounts and uninstalled my Google account. Then added it back and haven't had the same issue as of yet. Looked around on other forums and I believe it has something to do with deleting contacts then Google and the phone not having the same contacts....kinda how I took it anyways.

I have a problem with the built in email app on the Galaxy Note 3 (SM-9005).
I use the built in email app with an Exchange account for work. Since day one it has been working flawlessly.
Yesterday, all of a sudden, new email doesn't show up in the mail app. Email arrives as it should to the account when I check it at the computer. When I try and manually update in the app, the time stamp for "last updated" in the upper right hand corner doesn't change. It does however seem to try and check every once in a while, since the time stamp updates during the course of the day.
I have tried to change the password on the account and the phone, but it doesn't help.
I have also tried removing the account altogether and then adding it again. That doesn't help either. What's even more strange is that the email will sync back to the device when the account is readded, up until yesterday. No email from yesterday or after shows up.
None of my colleagues experience the same problem, but most if them are sporting iPhones.
I can't think of anything in particular that I have installed lately that might bring this problem along.
Does anyone recognise this problem, or even better, know how to fix it?
Thanks!

Did you frozen or deleted the magazine app? If you done that then email brakes.
