[Q] Gmail and Calendar stopped Syncing - Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Recently my gmail has stopped background syncing, as well as my google calendar. I think my contacts aren't syncing either. If i got into gmail and hit refresh it pulls all the emails, same the other services.
Why has it stopped doing it automatically? Labels are set to sync, background updates are on, im connected to wifi, my google account is set to sync, not rooted. The standard email is updating in the background with my uni account like it should. Gmail is working on my Desire (MIUI).
Please help.
Cheers

Go into Applications for each. Choose "clear cache " and then "clear data ". Ignore the warnings.

I tried this, it didnt work, I then unchecked both sync, and bacgrkound sync, and checked them again, and now it works.
Thanks

Sorry to bump an old thread, but this is happening to me again. I deleted all the data and restarted, but it's still not background updating. Kind of makes the Xoom worthless for me as that's my main use for it... (unactivated 3g xoom on wifi only). anyone have any ideas?

Stock ROM, Rooted, Sync hang?

I am on the stock ROM rooted. I have a gmail, google apps, facebook app - Not HTC Sense (contacts only) and weather(3 hours) accounts setup. Something seems to hang while syncing and the sync icon stays on for a long time. This will cause emails to be delayed in showing notification.
I cannot figure out what it is that is causing the issue. I am also assuming this is not good for battery life. When it is hung like that I can look at each account on the accounts & sync tab and none of them show active syncing. If I cancel the sync and then sync now they will all sync and complete as expected.
Any one else seeing this? Any ideas on figuring out what account is causing it?
Mine does this too. I'm rooted, running Perfect Storm v1.0. I also did the 'Kernal/OS tweaks'. I'm not sure what caused it, but it's been doing this on and off for a couple days. I also had that ooVoo video app installed and when I uninstalled it, the sync indicator went away. (I had previously set the ooVoo sync to off). I'll post if I find anything.
I selected each account and disabled sync for each one and it still showed the sync icon later on. Do we know what all triggers the sync icon?
Any one else having this issue?
I was having the same issue. No idea what was causing it, I thought it was Facebook, but I froze it and it still was popping up. I did install advanced radio tools in settings from Jcase and leankernal from Imoseyon...
Yeah I am unrooted still and have this same issue with gmail delay. I can send an email to my self and watch it pop up almost immediately on my old eris connected to wifi but actually have to launch gmail to get the email on the thunderbolt. WTF!? Thats basic stuff. I cannot for the life of me figure out how it works fine on the granddaddy eris but not on the grandson TB. I have one personal gmail account and one gapps account. The only difference in the phones (other than the obvious massive power difference) is 4g so I wonder if this 1st gen 4g device wasn't polished enough back at the HTC labs?

I have 1 of each account type as well. What about other of you having this issue?
I've been experiencing this all day. Won't sync my g-mail accounts. I froze HTC Sense, could that be the cause?
EDIT: Unfroze sense and it still won't sync my g-mail. Syncs my contacts fine, just not my calendar or my e-mails. I deleted data and it did nothing except remove all of the e-mails that I had on my phone. Still wouldn't sync so I booted up my backup, and it STILL is not syncing. Please tell me I'm not the only one experiencing this problem.

[Q] Tweak Google Mail Sync?

Is this possible? My sync tends to be really slow sometimes. I've been waiting about 20 mins now for Gmail to push a message to my device. I'm using the TrickDroid v3 ROM.
I cleared my cache for Google Mail and that seemed to work. However, while on a mobile connection Gmail refuses to sync.
I cleared my cache, cleared all the data for Gmail and even deleted the account and re-added it. Still nothing?!?!?! IM and the web works over 3G/HSPA just not sync.
The sync use to he so much better about a year ago. They kept updating the app and other thongs and now the sync just sucks. When people tell me they sent me an email I'm forced to go into gmail and refresh myself or ill stay waiting forever.

My problem was an APN issue, I just needed to clear out some other settings I had in there. The sync seems to work fine and it's quick enough.

[Q] Help Please - My Gmail will not Push to S3

I have read the other posts on this problem and tried all they suggested - Clearing Gmail Cache and data - I get the messages online in my browser but they never push to my S3. I can open the Gmail app and do a refresh there, and then the new messages come through. But only if I manually refresh. It was working for the first few days I had my S3, but then it stopped working.
DO I have a setting wrong? Sync is on and I get my Yahoo and corporate mail. Seems to be something with Gmail
Thanks in advance guys.

I know I have somewhat the same issue. I find that my Accounts Sync in the Settings gets turned off. I think it started happening after I installed the Go Power Master when I switched to the GO Launcher. I have to go in and switch it back on every morning. Hope this helps!

I have checked that ... First thing I checked ... I am getting my other e-mails and text ... just not Gmail
Go into gmail/settings/your account email/ring+vibrate/days of mail to sync, and be sure none is NOT selected.
Try that

Apps - Google services framework. Clear data and reboot.
gmail push no longer working!
Hello XDA,
I am having this same problem with gmail sync / push. I just flashed my S3 to BoneStock ROM 3.0 with VRBMF1 and now when emails show up on my desktop's browser I get nothing on my phone. I've looked at SETTINGS->ACCOUNTS->GOOGLE and all google services are all set to sync but last sync time on gmail never changes by itself. It will only refresh if I open the gmail app manually on my phone.
Before flashing my phone I would receive email and notifications immediately but now, sadly, it doesn't work like that. I've tried these things without success:
Clear data/cache in Gmail app from App Manager, then reboot phone
Clear data/cache in Google Account Manager from App Manager, then reboot phone
Clear data/cache in Google Services Framework from App Manager, then reboot phone
All of the above and reboot phone
I'm thinking I might reinstall the ROM but without installing the gmail app during the app selection process. Instead installing it from Google Play after getting to the phone's desktop the first time. This will allow me to uninstall it completely and reinstall it if I am still having problems but I really don't want to have to reflash the ROM if I can help it.
I looked through the gmail app, there isn't too much available in terms of sync'ing options. Nor items that might help me debug this issue. I'm really out of ideas on this.
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
-Greg
Nevermind, on my question.
After I did the things I listed I noticed that the play store wouldn't connect. Every time I ran it, it would just say: "no connection" with retry button that wouldn't do anything. I couldn't figure out how to fix this problem, I think it was caused by clearing out Google Account Manager data or Google Services Framework data - reboots didn't do anything.
I just did a fresh install of BoneStock and my gmail push notifications are working correctly now. Hopefully it stays that way...
Open Gmail, press menu soft key, settings, select your email address, make sure sync Gmail is checked and the setting below it says at least 30 days.
Also make sure the top option where it says inbox type is set to default inbox.
Then select inbox sound & vibrate and make sure you have a sound is set and also check the box beside where it says notify for every message.
You should now be golden.
*This was posted for the others who still have this issue *
I'm glad you got it working though.

Google Sync Problems

Hey guys, I have been experiencing a problem since yesterday: Although syncing is activated (I tripple checked!) my google account does not sync anymore as long as I use mobile data (other apps like google chrome are able to use mobile data, however, so I am able to surf the internet). This also means that I don't get any emails in push from my gmail account. As soon as I switch to WI-FI, syncing works flawlessly, emails are pushed without any delay. Manual syncing works (pulling down in the gmail app or via the options in the google account settings on the phone).
Another weird thing is the signal status icon. When using WI-FI it is white, as soon as I switch to mobile data, it turns orange (I'm using nova launcher).
So I decided to completly wipe the phone and then reinstalled CM 11s 33R which I downloaded directly from the CM-page. I reinstalled all the apps afresh which means I don't think I carried any wrong settings from my last ROM over to the newly installed one.
Anybody got an idea what the reason could be that there is no syncing anymore and how I can resolve this?
Hi,
im facing the same problem since yesterday morning. I've recognized the exact same issues with the same situation.
As long as im in WLAN all is good. As soon as i am on mobile-data network push is not working anymore. I has been working before fine, but till yesterday it stopped. I didnt change anything in the configuration.
Very strange. I would be very happy if anybody has a glue on how to fix that.
I've also made twice a reset (once per TWRP, and another reset with android reset function) but both didnt help to get rid of that problem.

Push and sync works again with my device. Also, the orange color in the Signal Status is gone and it is White again.
Found something in the OPO-Forum (thanks to gabriel3714):
Go to:
google.com /Settings /security
under section "account permissions" find "apps and websites" and click "view all" then try and revoke access to you OPO and any other items that shouldn't be there. Then restart your phone.
If anybody still has Troubles, here are some other things to try which were sent to me in an email by Matt Oli:
If Sync isn't working when you're using your data, here are a few things to check for:
•Make sure that Background data is enabled◦Phone settings> Data Usage> Scroll down to Gmail and make sure that "Restrict background data" is not selected.
•Disable Power saving mode
•Clear your App's cache and data◦Open Phone settings> Select Application manager> Swipe to "All"> Choose Gmail> Clear cache and data
•Limit your folder size◦Open Gmail via a desktop> Settings> Forwarding and POP/IMAP> Next to "IMAP access" select "Limit folder size"
•Try Unsyncing your Gmail account temporarily. Try this a few times.◦Settings> Accounts> Google> Select your account> Uncheck Gmail> Check Gmail
•Resetting IMAP◦Gmail> Settings> POP/IMAP> Disable POP & IMAP> Save Settings> Re-enable IMAP> Save Settings
•Remove Gmail Account and setup again◦Phone Setting> Accounts> Google> Select you email account> "Remove account"
◦Re-establish account.

Gmail not Syncing

So, we have 2 ATT GS5 phones that have been updated to Lollipop since the software was released. On May 7th, my wife's phone just stopped syncing Gmail. Funny thing is, it syncs all the other google services under accounts (Calendar, Contacts etc...) When you look at Gmail under accounts, where all the google services are, the Sync arrows never go away on the Gmail section. Also, since I cleared all app data, when you go into Gmail for the first time, it just stays at the pulling down email screen.
-I tried clearing Gmail app cache and data buttons, no good.
-Tried the uninstall updates button, rebooted, re-installed updates, no good.
-Rebooting phone and removing batter, no good.
-Tried clearing off all her pictures/videos to make more space (now have 5GB free), no good.
What else is there?
open the setting
