I am on the Optimus G3 ROM and my Google account will not stop syncing unless I manually cancel the sync. I have tried leaving it for a day to see if it would stop of its own accord but it still carries on syncing. Because of this, my phone has not entered deep sleep at all. If I go onto the accounts and sync settings for my Google account, it says the Google account is syncing, but when I open it, it says all of the parts have already been synced.
Does anyone else have this problem or had it? How am I meant to go about fixing this?
Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks.
Edit: Problem solved - It seemed there was a problem with the quickmemo+ application which was preventing the syncing from completing.

I just noticed a few days ago that GMail isn't syncing with my phone anymore. I send myself an email just to check and it never showed any notification untill I manually entered the application and updated. Of course, I'd ran this test before and it worked flawlessly. I really need this to work because I use my email a lot for work purposes.
I'm currently on CM-5.0.3.1, ERE36B. I don't really know what may have happened. Configuration to receive notifications apparently is ok. As far as I know the only thing that may have changed is the number of apps. Can there be some kind of interference between some app and GMail sync? Come on it's the Google Phone, if GMail can't work we've got a problem...
Any help will be GREATLY appreciated.
Go into: Settings, Applications, Manage Applications, Filter - ALL, find GMAIL and GMAIL Storage, clear data for both.
Solved! Thanks!
Hi !
Used to get these issues too on my HTC Magic (G2). Nothing wrong with my N1, but this morning, no sync (last sync seven hours ago...).
Turned everything down then restarted and it worked again.
Do you often get that? Is it a google-related issue ?
So I searched the forums for any solution to this problem but to no avail. I have a tf300t that is unlocked, rooted and updated to 4.2.1. Up until recently everything was fine until I realised that my google calendar no longer syncs. Neither does the default asus calendar. I have tried many things but nothing has worked. I've tried uninstalling calendar, removing google account, readding but nothing has worked. I think the problem started when I tried to use ASUS sync with it on my laptop (the calendar and contacts was greyed out on the asus pc sync software). Any suggestions as to how to correct this? I really would like my calendar to be working again. Now I'm considering just doing a clean install again to get this thing to work.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
When you go to Settings, select Google under Accounts, and select your Google account, is there a check mark next to Calendar? If so, is there some kind of error message? It's possible that when you set up the ASUS sync software, it just set your sync settings to no longer sync your calendar and contacts with Google since it assumes you'll be doing that with the ASUS software instead.
Otherwise, if there's an error, it could be conflicting with the ASUS software in some way. In that case, you could try clearing the data from, and disabling, the ASUS apps, clear data from Google Calendar and People, and resync. I know that when I used MIUI on my Evo 4G, if you used the built-in MIUI Backup app to restore contact info, it conflicted with Google's contact sync. That could be happening here, too.
Putting the ILLA in KILLA since 1985
Hi all,
First of all: I've searched for a while on google and all I found is relative to GDR1, not GDR2 (aka Amber).
After the Amber update I can't retrieve my messages from gmail. The account is setup correctly, the contacts and calendars sync with no issues but not the mail. Sometimes it stays "Syncing..." forever, sometimes I get an error message that says it's impossible to sync and sometimes it says it synced but no message is fetched (and I know there's new messages because I see them in webmail).
Does any one have this issues? Is there any way to get back my mail synced on my phone?
Have you tried removing and reconnecting the account? Does it still sync calendar and contacts, or does none of that work?
Hi,
Yes, I tried to remove the account and add it again. Tried to add the google account as a Microsoft Outlook and the error persists. I see on the web that uninstall skype should address this problem but didn't work too.
The contacts and calendars are all syncing well.
Just the e-mail doesn't work.
I'm a bit frustrated with this. The amber takes a few improvements to WP8, but my e-mail is very important to me.
Thank you for your kind reply!
The simplest next step is to try a hard reset - this will almost certainly fix things, but at the cost of all your data on the phone which isn't backed up. Best case, you have to wait a while while your apps re-download and so on, worst case, you discover there were files stored in some app that you really need and now can't access again.
I'll let you know if anything else I can think of seems plausible. One possibility is to reboot the phone between each change (for example, remove the account, reboot, add it again, possibly reboot again). That's probably not going to do it, though. Sorry I can't help more. I sounds like you've already done the research on this (thank you for doing that, by the way).
Thanks, man!
I feared it was necessary to do a hard reset, but facing the situation I believe it worse a try.
Just one more question: I should do it in the settings/aout/restore or by the combinations of keys at start up?
Should I allow phone to restore my settings at the first boot after reset?
Thank you very much again!
Ok, just did the hard reset by pressing the key combination on startup. My phone was back to the factory settings and after the initial set up was done the first thing I did was add my Google account.
Unfortunately (and it's very frustrating) the phone can't fetch my messages again, but I noted that if I perform a sync on another folder (or label) the messages are fetched correctly, what means that this problem is Inbox relative only.
It's a very cool way to start the weekend! :silly:
Update: I set up my google account as a MS Exchange account and it worked! All my e-mail (with instant notifications), contacts and calendars (after some time all my calendars was fetched) is now working. At least until google definitively shutdown the google sync service.

Hi all,
I set up mine and my wife's LG G2s exactly the same way - added the accounts, etc. However, her GMail won't sync without manually syncing. I've removed the account, wiped the phone, set it back up - twice. Right now they're using the stock Verizon ROMs.
Any ideas on how to get GMail to sync?

I assume you went into settings/accounts&sync make sure auto sync box is checked. If it is checked click on the Google account, then click on the email address and make sure the boxes are checked for the items you want synced. If gmail or the auto sync box was unchecked, there's your issue. If none of these was the problem, post again.

Yup, all that's checked,
I'm having sync problems as well
Am at my wit's end trying to figure out how to get this resolved. The only thing I haven't done yet is reset the phone - but I have read other accounts including yours that resetting the phone doesn't fix the problem. I have reset the access to the phone from
https://security.google.com/settings/security/permissions?pli=1
And waited for 2 days before adding the account back on. Nothing seems to be working.
Please let us know if you manage to solve the problem.
I'm having a rather annoying issue with my Gmail account. It's my main account that the phone is setup on.
Sometimes I get emails as they come in, but most of the time, I have to open the app and refresh it to get any new messages. I've tried to redo all the sync settings but nothing seems to have worked.
Any ideas?

Have you tried going under the phone settings, then under accounts, and making sure that your android sync settings are enabled for all of the options Google gives that you want to sync, instead of just under the Gmail settings? You could maybe even try removing your entire Google account from that same accounts area in the phone settings and then just set it up all over again. That way you are doing your sync settings just like you were setting it up on your phone for the first time. Don't know if any info I give will be of any help or not, but thought it might be worth a try!! Hope you get it all figured out!!
It's one of the many broken things in the latest update from Verizon. Really wish I blocked all updates after the very first 5.1.1 update!!
