I hit the button and nothing.... just stays in the email. tried clearing the cache and data. uninstalled gmail and reinstalled.... and loaded a new rom version (senseless extreme... but this is something that suddenly started..... was working fine for a few weeks)
Any ideas?? sending from the computer works fine, as well as saving the draft on the phone, and receiving, and all that fun stuff.
have you tried removing the account and re-adding it?
I remember somewhere else someone suggested what you have already cleared and account data.
It worked once for me with Desire HD but I suspect its all the when it comes to software
i would assume that loading the new rom and in turn signing into my account again would be about the same thing... going to try a clean load today and see if i can narrow it down
Has anyone figured this out yet? I have been having the same problem for months. The only way I have found to fix it is to reload the ROM (or load a new one).
I have cleared data, cache etc. I have disable and re-enabled syncing. I have uninstalled and re-installed the Gmail app from the market and nothing. I rely on Gmail for work so I really need this app to work. I hate having to flash my phone each time this crops up...
Have you cleared defaults? That's what got mine going again after titanium backup didn't restore everything correctly.
Just curious...? After you flash these ROMs, are you using Titanium Backup to restore any system or account data? This I know can cause multiple issues and GMail is very dependent on Accounts.
The "I can't send anything in GMail, but I can still receive messages." issue happened to me twice with my Sensation and I was able to resolve it both times by just clearing data from the application in: Settings > Applications > Manage Applications > GMail. I know you mentioned doing this and it not helping, but I just wanted to be clear on my experience with such a problem.
Hi guys,
I've searched for this problem all over, but can't find anything about it.
I have had this problem for some time now, and occurs again and again.
Gmail, Drive and sometimes calendar get stuck while syncing on my device. Doesn't matter if I'm on data or WiFi. With Google Drive it often happens after I've updated a Google Sheet. Even though I don't exit the document before it says that it is saved, it somehow keeps on syncing in the background. I just found out when I got home from work after a 20 min drive, and when I went into settings and Google, the wheel next to Drive was spinning. The phone had been awake all the way home. The only way to stop it temporarily is by disabling and enabling sync for that specific app or generally.
I have absolutely no clue, what could cause these situations. I have tried clearing data and cache for those apps, but it hasn't helped.
Anyone had this happen as well?
Cheers

Have you tried removing your google accounts? Followed by clearing data for all the troubling apps, clearing data for google play services, and google system frameworks? I would suggest you do all those things, restart your phone, and add your google accounts back. You are not by any chance dropping data connections are you?

Haven't tried removing the google account, but tried the other things you suggested.
Yesterday I also cleared dalvik cache. Will see if that makes any difference before removing the google account.
I don't think that my phone has dropped the data connection at any time, at least it doesn't look like it. Why would that have an impact? Wouldn't it just continue syncing when the connection was reestablished?

If you do drop data connection I BELIEVE the offending apps will keep trying to reconnect and resync thus holding wakelocks. You can check and see if you dropped data by looking at the battery stats built into the os. Where it says mobile network data, if you see red, it means you lost signal. I doubt this is your problem, but it is something that can sometimes cause a problem. I'm willing to bet clearing data for the offending apps AND removing your google account, restarting and adding back will fix the problem. Quite sometime ago, back in the gingerbread days, I used to have a similar problem. With gmail, sometimes I would try and send a message, and it would just get "stuck" and never send and drain the battery, where in hours it would go from full charge to 0. This is why I believe you may have some bad files and they just won't sync on the phone and or they are creating a conflict somehow with what's on google's servers

In that case, I'm sure that my connection wasn't dropped. Well at least not for more than a second, because the last time the wake lock occurred, I was actively using my phone to browse the web after the wake lock started but before I realized it was there...
I will let you know, if this keeps it from happening :fingers-crossed:

Clearing dalvik cache didn't help. Gmail just tried syncing for almost 2 hours with no success.
How will removing the Google account and clearing data for Google Play Services and Google System Frameworks influence my phone? Will it reset my home screen or do anything else?

Also clear data for gmail and all the google apps you are having issue with.
Google play services and Google system frameworks also contain some information about your account, and you want to completely wipe any remnants of your account from your system, so that's why I say remove your google account and also delete data for these apps. Your homescreen, widgets etc will not be touched. Your apps will all still be there.

Okay, thanks. I hope it works :good:
I uninstalled an antivirus app. It left something behind that scanns my wifi then gives me an add. I know what app it was and i don't have it any more. When I factory data reset twice it goes away for a few days then comes back. Please help.
Are you restoring Google backup when you factory reset?
Old apps syncing again
I manually search and install each app. All the apps I have never did it before. The one that started it is gone.
Hi folks, had an issue with my camera/torch on my U11. I've had it for about 3 yrs and no troubles. It began crashing with the message "Unable to load the camera" and the torch icon was greyed out. I could see the samera dialog when I pressed the "Clear All" button, but it woul;dn't activate. The tech looked at it and said I could try a factory reset to see if that solves the problem, otherwise they could burn several hours troubleshooting software or replacing the camera, if that was the problem.
I have everything backed up on my Google account, messages, contacts, apps etc, so I tried the factory reset. Had some issues with Google Play crashing initially, once I got past the language change. The app crashed several times before I finally got it to load. Not wanting to restore everything at once, I skipped the step to restore apps from back up and data and went right to the clean phone. Now, when I try and open Google Play Store (or add a Google Account or anything Google), the app crashes just as it gets to the login screen. I've tried re-booting, clearing the cache, disabling the Boost+ as someone suggested in another forum, re-started, checked notifications and permissions but nothing seems to work...time for a new phone or does anyone have any ideas... thanks. Chris

I removed the micro-SD external storage and turned off the WiFi and it connected. Still no camera or torch/flashlight, which is why I went through the whole exercise to begin with. At least I can now log into Google (Play Store, GMail, accounts, etc)....

Thanks bud...while I am capable of going the DIT route, I'm time poor and have already burned a number of hours just getting to the point where I can now at least log in to my Google accounts to re-install apps and such. I will need a camera going forward, but will likely take the easy route that most camera makers prefer and buy a new one...I appreciate you taking your time to reply. Thanks!!
For the last month, I couldn't access the app. Whenever I start the app through Samsung Gallery, it will freeze the screen for a moment before showing the crash dialog. I've tried clearing the cache/data, reinstall the app, and even contacted CS, but none have worked.
Recently, I used ADB to uninstall several bloatwares, and may or may not be the cause of the problem. Does the video player need another app to work or something? Or what should I do?
I'm thinking a factory reset will be my last resort. TIA.
Check your logs and see why it's crashing, if it's missing an app you deleted then it should say in the logs most likely.

Thanks a lot. It turns out I accidentally deleted com.samsung.android.smartmirroring and that was the one that is causing the problem.
Thank you restoring smartmirroring fixed the issue for me! I could not figure out what was causing the issue for a few months.
