Hey Guys,
I am having "Force Close" when I try to sync my contacts with google account. I am running stock build and not even rooted. Suddenly yesterday I had a force close and I tried to wait for a day, also restarted my phone twice between yesterday and today. Then I tried to dig into the problem and realized that it was a problem with contacts syncing. If I remove check mark from contacts and sync there is no problem. But when I try to sync contacts it gets force close.
I have plenty of apps on it and also plenty of customization. I do not want to do factory reset. I had set this phone up for about 25-30 days now. No problems untill now.
Please some one help me. Oh and it is my primary google account.
Anybody?

Somebody in this thread is saying that there is a problem with Google's sync, but I don't know if it is the same issue. Maybe try waiting it out for a day?
Also if you try a different Google Account does it have the same problem?
I don't know about that. As I have too many contacts. and my another email is just junk. It's only for fun stuff. So I can't check synching problems with that account.

if you are trying to sync contacts with your google.com account. google is having a global issue. I work for tmo so can confirm. no eta just keep trying.
I had this problem yesterday morning, but all has been fine since.

Why is the last couple days my Gmail will not check for mew mail? Stock rooted with update done yesterday. I have to open Gmail and refresh and get all my mail I've been missing all day. Doesn't makes sense since it was working before the last couple days. I have 3 accounts setup to sync and none are working.

I'm also having issues with emails pushing to my Infuse. They show up on Sparrow on my Mac, but I have to manually check from my phone. I noticed this a couple days ago and again today.
My stock infuse is has also switched to only rerrshing gmail when I manually do it.
Have task killer, juice defender, sjd watchdog installed but I don't think that is the issue

You do know you dont need that anymore? It does more harm than good. Not bad harm though.

I also have task killer, BUT, I do not have it running. Only have it in case I need to manually kill something.
One account had 1 email this morning, another I checked manually and one showed up. Not sure what to make of this.

Weird, my gmail is no longer updating automatically either. But it is working on my tablet.
EDIT: Well, I checked my account settings under Settings > Accounts and Sync and somehow my gmail, calendar and contacts magically got unchecked.
I had not heard that it does more bad than good, can you point me to a discussion thread on it?
I had someone else say the same thing about juice defender but did not get a explanation why either.

Seems to be back to normal for me. Anyone else see it working correctly now?

I had this issue on my Inspire. I went to GTalk and apparently, I was signed out. I signed back in (as I believe this is how it communicates with google servers and syncs) and mine has been syncing correctly since.

What the heck is gtalk? And whats it got to do with gmail refreshing on the phone. Ive never heard of gtalk !!! I googled it and came up a bunch of different things
All day today, no email. Manual refresh and a bunch of emails show up. This is annoying! I thought alot of my issues with the dell streak were solved by moving on but i guess i only moved onto different issues..... so annoyed

Google Talk. Google's chat service. It shows in your app drawer as "Talk". If you've ever noticed, when you access gmail on a computer, you're automatically signed into Google Talk. I was told a while ago in the past (when I owned a captivate) that Talk is what the phone may use to communicate with Google servers (makes sense), but not completely sure. By no means is gmail buggy or have issues because 99% of the time it syncs perfectly and without problems. My time period where it didn't sync was the first time it ever happened since I've had my Inspire (since February). My gmail has since returned to normal.
Do you have a task killer that's possibly interfering?
Are notifications enabled? (in gmail settings - "notify in status bar when mail arrives")

Still having issues with my Gmail syncing. I had no issues for the first few weeks I had phone, but now it is rare that push actually works. I have verified all settings are correct. I had issues on my iphone with email syncing also, so I changed to fetch emails every 15 mins on that to make it useful still. I don't see an option for that on the gmail app though.

That's really weird. The Gmail app has always worked for me, and very well at that (and on different devices). My GF's gmail app works just as well and she uses the Infuse. The only thing I can think of at this point is to go to the gmail application info page (via manage applications) and "clear data. Verify all of the settings again, reboot, and see what happens.

I do have advanced task killer but its not enabled at all. My gmail settings and notifacations are all set correctly.
Gtalk was logged in on my main account. I dont think that has anything to do with this problem though. I have 3 accounts setup and it worked fine for a little bit there before noticing the problem. If it was linked, i would have 3 loggins!
The gmail app has always worked fine for me also, UNTIL getting this phone! Sux

I was reading the help part in the gmail app and there is a long list. I guess clearing data is next for me. I just turned everything off and turned it back on. Ive rebooted today too.

Well, good luck. Let me know what ends up working. Something will.
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.

ok so o hope this is in the right spot. i have a rooted SR on stock rom, unlocked on t mobile and all of a sudden i am having issues with the native email app not sending yahoo mail. i did nothing, down loaded nothing, no weird reboots nothing. all i get is that the email could not be sent and moved to my drafts. i have deleted and reset up my email and still nothing. i also rebooted my phone and nothing. has any one had or having issues or is it just me and my phone?
Try removing the account and setting it back up using the "other" option instead of choosing yahoo.

sounds like you're not getting internet to the phone or the outgoing settings are wrong. verify internet. and check the outgoing mail server settings haven't changed on yahoo's end.

How would I go about doing this? It's seems all the other functions that require Internet work fine. I also have no problems, well few problems receiving email. I have it set to push and for the most part get email regularly. It's just the sending that's become an issue. It sends every once in a while but usually get the error.

I just tried "other" and it won't let me set it up. I Googled the settings but they must have changed since March? I can find any settings newer than that, maybe some one has some newer settings they can provide?

ok it seems there is a new protocol on the yahoo servers, adding "android.imap.mail.yahoo.com" and some other changes. if i set it manually it works. the only thing is that i need it to be pushed not poled. the only option in "other" is to check every 15 mins. how would i go about getting the automatic email set up to recognize this new change and let me set up my email as push?
Try adding it back under yahoo and see if there is any option to modify server settings. I don't think you can choose manual set up like with other but may be able to modify settings after its added. If not, could try the yahoo mail app in the playstore it may have a push option. I don't have a Yahoo account so I've never used it but might be worth checking out.

Luckily I remembered I have a friend that works for yahoo, son had some inside help. Guess it was a spamming issue. Seems that if you reply to the same person too many times in the same email thread the system makes it as spam and requires a captcha for sending. Well since a phone can't see that, it fails to send. So now I have to wait 24 hours to reset and see if that fixes things. Thanks guys

I'm having a problem with my account syncing to my phone. When I go into my sync settings I get the, "Sync is currently experiencing problems. It will be back shortly." error at the bottom. I receive emails and am able to go on the play store just fine, but everything else isn't really working, especially my calendar.
I've recently changed roms-from Bam Android to Pacman-but I've had this problem for about a week before I changed, and its been almost two weeks now.
I've tried everything. Factory reset, disabling and re enabling accounts, clearing caches, downloading third party apps. But my calendar and contacts still won't sync-though I don't really care about the contacts one. In fact calendar isn't even in my sync list to be checked. Why is that? And can someone help me?

I'd personally check with the developer of the ROM you're using.
I'll try that but I personally think it's on Google's end. Cause it was acting like this on a different rom I was on, and now, all of a sudden my Play Store isn't syncing. I need to find a way to contact Google.
